DANGEROUS DERELlcT.
Norwegian Steamer SkuId Sighted On
Beam Ends OF Miquelon.

New York, March 1.-THE loss az
sea of the Norwegian steamer Skuld,
while bound from Philadelphia to Rot
terdam. was reported today by the Of
ficers of the steamer Bosnia of the
Hamburg American Line. which arriv-
ed today from Hamburg. The Bosnia
sighted the Skuld lying on her beam
ends in Lat. ALA north, and Long.
$40 east, about $50 miles south of the
island of Miquelon. March Is. Her
crew had evidently abandoned her and
it was believed by the Bosnia's officers
that they were taken off by some vessel
which sighted her before the Bosnia.
1t is believed the steamer was upset
during one of the heavy gales reported
by steamers during the last two weeks.
AS she is a freight steamer running
on no line. but picking up freights
wherever they offer. it is believed that
she carried no passengers. The posi-
ton of the derelict is in the pathway
of the trans Atlantic liners and it is
regarded as dangerous to the steamers
crossing the ocean.
