ALL OF ONE FAMILY DROWNED
FOUR PERISH IN STORM. WHICH
SWEPT LONG ISLAND SOUND.
Three Barges in String of Nine Sink
and Crews Of All But One
Are Saved.

Spccitl Dispatch to The Star.
NEW HAVEN, Conn. May AT least
wour persons, two men, a woman and q
fourteen year-Old boy, who formed the
crew of the barge Susquehanna, lost their
lives in the windstorm which swept Long
Island Sound for the past two days.
Those who were lost were all members
of one family. The barge was one of a
string Of nine which was being towed
up the sound by the tug c. r. Sanford
of the Scully line of New York. OF the
nine four broke away and three sank.
The crews Of all the barges save one
were saved by oyster boats which were in
the vicinity when the big unwieldy craft
went down. The body of the boy who
was drowned was recovered by oyster
fishermen. The name Of the family is not
other barges.
Heavy Sea Running.
The Sandford came into port here this
morning with her remaining five barges.
Her captain reported that the last four
barges in the string snapped their haw-
sers yesterday afternoon off Faulkner s
Island. Driven by the southwest gale,
they were quickly blown out of reaching
distance of the tug, which could not
abandon the other barges.
A heavy sea was running. and it was
not long before three Of the four high
sided craft had gone to the bottom. The
fourth is still missing. but it is thought
that she sank before the wind died down
last night.
A number of small oyster steamboats,
were in the vicinity when the barges
broke loose, and. seeing the plight of the
cargo boats, stood by to render such as
sistance as was possible. Tossed about
by the seas. however. the oystermen in
their small craft did not dare TO ap-
proach too closely the unmanageable
hulks, which were as dangerous as a
water-logged derelict.
Oystermen to the Rescue.
When the barges finally gave up the
struggle, though, the oystermen were
ready to pick up the persons aboard them
and so far as is known all were rescued
with the exception of the crew of the
Susquehanna.
The Standiford was not the only tug to
meet with trouble in yesterdays blow.
The tug Hackendaqua, also of the Scully
line, reported today that she lost two
barges but what became OF them Is still
to be learned.
The tug Resolute of the New England
Transportation Company was another
from New York two or three days ago
with tow of eight and lost three yes
terday afternoon, the hawsers parting
when the wind was at its f1ercest. 1t is
feared that the crews of these missing
boats may have been lost.
