With her captain dead from fever,
four seamen OF the crew i'll with the
same disease and the chief engineer
and one of the assistant engineers
horribly scalded by steam the Brit
ish steamship Matteawan arrived off
Old Point Comfort about S o'clock
yesterday morning from Daliar, on the
northwestern coast OF Africa eli

of coal for Cuba.
As soon rs he boarded the vessel
to conduct the usuaf health nspec-
tion, DIR. Collins. the Federal quar-
anime officer ut Old Point, placed the
steamer and everyone aboard in quar-.
antine for an indefinite period No
once aboard will be allowed ashore

Captain Stricken at Sea.
Tho Matteawan sailed from Dakar
In ballast early this month and when
she was several days out on the voy-
age, Captain Bennett was stricken
with fever Later one of the seamen
f,lll nj hnd soon afterwards three
others were stricken. The presence
of ,,the idIsease caused considerable
anxiety among the officers and men.
but everything possible was done for
the comfort of the suffering captain
and seamen.
About week ago Captain Bennett
died and his body was buried at sea.
The death ~ the skipper served to in.
crease the fears of the crew, but the
men worked faithfully and the big
vessel raced across the Atlantic as
fast as possible TO get the suffering
seamen into port where they could
receive medical attention

only Il short distance from the Vir-
Ginia Capes. a horrible accident oc.

For few minutes there was n
panic in the engine room, but the
cooler heads succeeded in quieting
the engine room force and the suf-
fering engineers were horne to their
rooms where they were made as com
Portable as possible. The vessel had
no surgeon aboard, however, and the
snfferings of the men were horrible.
The damage was repaired as soon
rs possible and the steamer continued
her voyage to the Capes where n
pilot boarded her and piloted her to
Old Point. When the vessel steamed
into the Roads her flag was flying
at half mast in respect for the dead
captain.
