So extensive is the list of groundings
that the number OF tugs available is

YOKOHAMA, March 4.-The Great
Northern steamship Dakota went
ashore last night Sunday in the bay
of Toxic. All her passengers are safe

light was mistaken for the Jogashima
light. The vessel sustained much dam
age and sprang a heavy leak. Agents
of the steamship who were sent to
