Halifax, N. S., Dec. 19.-In trying to
avoid sinking schooner, which was pro-
ceeding out the harbor, Capt. Rennie of
the Allan liner Corinthian ran his ship
ashore on Georges island shortly before
midnight Saturday night
The Corinthian arrived in port from st.
John, N. B., Saturday afternoon and took
on board number of passengers and a
quantity of apples and Holsters and was
on her way to London and Havre when
the accident happened.
The big liner had Strengthened out in
the western passage when schooner was
sighted ahead. The course Of the steam
er was changed to clear the smaller ves-
sci and to avoid a collision. Capt. Rem
ME was compelled to go too far to the
westward and in swinging back to again
get into the channel he did not have room
enough and the ship went high and dry
on a shoal northwest of the island.
The tide at the time was full, and on the
fall it was decided to wait until noon to-
day before an effort was made to pull her
off. When the tide was on the rise four
tug boats fastened onto the ship, but their
effort was fruitless. With the four tugs
pulling and the propellers of the Corin-
THAN working, she did not bulge an inch.
For two and half hours they worked,
but with the tide running out they were
no further ahead and the attempt was
abandoned until the next tide.
