STEAMER LOST WITH CREW
Halifax Hears of the Blowing Up o.
Storm Beaten Vessel.

Halifax, n. S., Nov. 22.-The violent
storm which swept the coast of Nova
Scotia the latter part of last week has
apparently claimed another victim.
A two masted steamer is thought to
have gone to the bottom on Thursday
afternoon off Beaver harbor, on the
east coast of the province, fifty-five
miles off Halifax Her identity has
not been established, and so far as can
be ascertained not one of her crew sur
vived
News of the disaster, which is one of
the strongest in shipping records, was
brought to Halifax by the steamer Kill
keel, commanded by Captain Allan,
from Port Hastings, Cape Breton The
Kilkeel ON Thursday morning ran into
a gale, and Captain Allan decided to
run for shelter. Heading into Beaver
'harbor. he observed behind him another
steamer with two masts and heavily
laden approaching. apparently also
seeking shelter. The gale was then
blowing at terrific rate.
When the Kilkeel reached the haven
the unknown steamer passed west OF
Horse island near the harbor entrance,
which hid her hull. Suddenly great
cloud of smoke or steam shot upward.
and when it cleared away the lnasts of
the incoming steamer had vanquished.
The officers on the Kilkeel, who had
been watching the approaching steam
er, declare that they are positive she
went to the bottom, and they say they
are sure that no boat could live in the
sea which prevailed They believe that
she ran too far west and struck a rock
and that as she foundered her boilers
exploded Nothing could be ascertain
ed to establish her identity. 1t is inn
probable that any of the crew escaped.

We unintentionally did Freehold
err w. r. Stevens an injustice during
the last campaign. AT the October
meeting of the Board in the publish
ed reports of the proceedings he made
public the conditions of several APP
preparations. but did not say any
thing about the bridge appropriations
which IS the largest item. We
thought this had been done for
political effect. We understand this
was not SO, as he only replied to
questions asked him. In this months
report the public is informed of the
condition of the bridge appropriation.
