That is, he could tell 1t If he were a

In the course of his regular days

trying to let out a big receptacle or
chute a volume of cinders, about ten
tons, more or less. BY some hook or

hoping to be able to resurrect his body,
though not expecting it to be alive. At
the end of an hour and a half of hard
labor here came McKeyhill to the sur
face, alive and doing well. Neither he
nor any one else pretends to explain
how he managed to stay alive, but he
is living testimony against the asser-

not even seriously injured. The cinders

been left little mark here and there

Survivors Leave Darling Creek
Tibet survivors who were at the
Darling telegraph hut, most of them
suffering severely from the privations
endured, left there this morning with
n party of rescuers from the Salvor,
headed by Captain Ferris of the
Steamer Princess May, who joined the
Salvor's company when she left here.
| Another party left Bamfield this morn
ing to meet them. many of whom are
barefooted and will suffer terribly in
consequence, as they made their way
over the rough trail.
Search is still being made by the
whaler Orion, following the trend of the
current. in the hope of sighting any one
that still lives on the wreckage, the
hope being SHINY held, for It is now
over two days since the vessel broke
up. However, when the steamer Pa
cific was lost off Cape Flattery in 1873,
the two survivors lived for five days
on floating wreckage before being
picked up.
Advices from Cape Beae report that
communication has been held with
Lneman Logan's party, which went by
the land trail to the wreck on January
% The members of this party saw the
ShlpWrecked people CllnglnS TO the rig
ging, as seen from seward by the
steamer Queen, and could do nothing
to save the men and women, who were
swept to death before their eyes. The
wreck lay fifteen yards from the bluff
and when they reached the top of this
bluff on the morning of Wednesday
they could plainly see the people cling
ing to the rigging and others huddled
on the top deck. The people on the
shipwrecked vessel cheered wildly when
they saw the party on shore, evidently
thinking their rescuers had come.
Impotent, the party stood watching
while the waves swept the persons from
the rigging, and about II o'clock noon
that day an immense wave struck the
wreck and crushed everything to pieces.
Everybody was at once swept to de-
structiOn from the steamer while
would-be rescuers watched from shore,
unable to do anything to avert the
disaster.
Nine bodies We're recovered to noon
today. The bodies of four men were
picked up this morning. None has been
identified.
The shore for five miles is strewn
with all kinds of llquor-claret, port
wine, sherry, gin and whisky. One
hundred kegs have been washed up on
the beach, sixty of them unbroken.
Great quantities of olive Oil canned
and fresh fruit. vegetables etc. have
also been found.
