seven of the crew losing their lives, 1t
is now believed that two more ships
were lost with their entire crews.
one of these is thought to BE- the
schooner Pretoria, of Bay city, Mich,
the largest sailing ship on fresh water
and carrying "a crew of eight men. The
other is believed 10 DE the schooner olive
jeanette, which carried a crew of seven
men.
Broke Loose During Storm.
The Pretoria broke loose from the
steamer that was towing her during the
storm, and today Captain Wandig OF the
steamer Mary Boyle reported that the
Spars of a sunken three masted schooner
could be seen "a short distance east OF
the outer island Of the Apostle group,
about a hundred miles from Duluth. The
Olive jeanette, il is believed, went 10 the
bottom about ten miles from Portage
entry. A mass of wreckage was sighted
: AZ the steamer Juanita near that point,
AVID although the identity of the ship has
not been completely established. there
seems little doubt that il was the Olive
jeanette This schooner was i'm tow OF

vessel was lost with her entire crew on
Lake Michigan a few years ago,
Hurricane on the Lake.
The storm at times reached the proper
tiOas of a hurricane, and the stauuchest
neV steel vessels were forced 10 run for
shelter in more or less battered con-
ditiCn, The new steel steamer Stack
house arrived at the 500 on her first trip
with her hatch covers so badly sprung
that water poured continually into the
hold, One OF the crew was washed over
board. The Whaleback steamer Samuel
Mather also lost one of her crew over
board. The terrific battering the steel
steamers received in the storm gives rise
&c the gravest fears for the safety OF
many wooden ships which have not yet
reported, and the record of death and
destruction may reach much greater pro-
portions than the present estimates. The
monetary loss of the Sevona is placed al
$4,000 while that of the Pretoria is
estimated IT $lJOO00
