TRAGEDY OF THE SEAS.
Fifteen Americans Lost In TyphoOn In
the Philip mes.

AS the coast guard steam schooner
sent from Manila to tour the smaller
islands cautiousl.' approached a bar
rem, desolate islet lying to the north
east of the coast of Luzon, the cap
tain stood on the bridge with his
glasses leveled at a particular place
amid the breakers on shore where
a vessel was stranded says the San
Francisco Examiner. Flying from the
truck of the only remaining mast was
a string of signal flags, and the cap
tain of the coast guard ship was en-
gagged In de'iphering their import.
Farewell is what they mean he
said at last to his first mate.
FAREWELL" repeated the mate.
What do you make Of that?"
The captain looked at the mate,
' no returned the glance. and the two
seamen shook their heads sadly. AL
ready they surmised the mute story
told by the flags whipping in the
wind, amid the spindrift and surging
breakers on that desolate far coast,
and the investigation they made soon
gave all that could be told of the
rest of the story.
The wreck was that of the coast
guard steamer Leyte, which had been
at sea during the great typhoon and
tidal wave that swept through the
Philippine islands about two months
ago. During that gigantic storm many
vessels wee wrecked. even In Manila
harbor. and Islands we're swept over
by the wave, with great loss of life.
The Leyte never came into port, and
not until the coast guard vessel vis-
tied the little island where she was
wrecked was her fate known.
The Leyte has been manned by
American officers and a crew of ma
ives. She carried rapid fire guns and
was of $50 tons burden The news
Of her wreck was brought to this
brought to this port by the liner
Doric, which arrived yesterday. The
names OF the commanding officer and
other Americans on board were not
known to those on the Doric, but 1t is
known that some ] men were on
| board the wrecked vessel.
They must have all been drowned
for there were no Indications on the
desert where the Leyte drove ashore
of any persons having landed there.
and no other Islands are nearby. II
would seem that when the Leyte
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-12-09

was gripped by the typhoon and
whirled helplessly onwards that the
white men on board must have rec
ognized that hope for life was vain,
and before the final catastrophe had
hoisted the sad message spelled by
the tiny signal flags, FAREWELL" as
their last word to the world, their
families and friends. And the casual
visit of inspection of the second coast
guard vessel brought eyes that could
interpret the mute message, and
tongue to send 1t forth so that 1t
might reach the hearts of the living
who were last in the thoughts of the
dead.
