Steamer Harafd Arrives In
Port This Morning Four
Days Late.
ENCOUNTERED HURRICANE
Sighted Shipwrscked Lumber
Schooner Hallisw0od In
Gulf Of Mexico.
CREW TAKEN ON BOARD
Captain Refused to Leave
and Sank With Craft
Survivors In Hospital.

Four days late as the result of
eneountering fierce hurricane while
enroute from Tampico, Mexico, to
this city, the steamship Harald enter
ed port this morning with thrilling
and pathetic tale of shipwrecked
craft. Besides it's regular crew 1t
carried seven shipwrecked sailors
who had been rescued from the AM
eriean schooner Halliswood, which
was found sinking in about the mid
die of the Gulf of Mexico. Down
with the Inflated schooner probably
went its captain, for he refused to
desert his charge. When last seen
he was standing on the deck of the
rapidly sinking schooner waving a
last goodbye to his crew, which was
safe aboard the HaraId.
The Harald was four days out
when it came across the Halliswood.
The crew on the schooner signalled
for help and the Harald was driven
up as close as possible to the sinking
craft. In doing Shis the Harald g
lifeboat and several guard rails were
smashed. The Halliswood had en-
countered the hurricane and had re-
ceived the worst of lit. 1t was par
TALLY turned over, all of its rigging
was destroyed and those aboard the
steamer found that it contained
about two feet of water and was
then sinking rapidly. Members of
it's crew got aboard the Harold as
best they could. They were obliged
to Jump and climb and it was so
difficult that several of them were
injured. There were pleadings with
the brave captain of the Halliswood
to desert the helpless craft, but he
steadfastly refused and finally the
Harald steamed away, leaving him to
his fate.
Out in the middle of the Gulf of
Mexico en- the sinking vessel the cap
tain had no chance for his life and
the crew of the Harald say he must
have gone down with the Wreckage.
His seven-man crew reached this city
safely this morning. The injured
ones were given treatment by FEEDER
al Health Officer Dr. G. w. Naulty
Jr., and one with badly injured lef
was sent by the physician to the
marine hospital at Stapleton, S. I.
The Harald met with the hurri-
cane and had no easy time in reach

in this port, where it is discharging
at the docks of the American Smelt-
ing & Refining Company.
The ill-fated schooner Halliswood
carried a cargo of express wood from
New Orleans to New York.
According to the captain Of the
Harald there Is a possible chance of
the schooner remaining afioat after
it has sunken Just SO far owing to
its big cargo of lumber. Neverthe-
less, Captain e. e. Walls could not
survive very long, for there was a
scarcity of provisions aboard.

the master of the Haraid follows:

ed, full water, to Pemberton Broth

Canadians Are BUSY.

ottawa, Oct, 24.-Search Is being
continued for Allan Hawley and Au-
gustus Post, with the balloon Amer
lea H., which is supposed to hnve
landed somewhere in the wilds of Can
ada north of the great lakes after a
flight Of five days as contestant in
the international balloon race from st.
Louis. Grave fears are felt for the
safety Of the daring balloonists, who
may already have perished They are
the only contestants now unaccounted
for.
Government and railroad officials
and telephone and telegraph employees
down to the smallest hamlet or trad
ing post share the intense interest In
the whereabouts of the daring bal
loonists. They have arranged to re-
port Immediately when any trace of
che America II. is found. The news
will be flashed to New York.
Since the Germania and Dusseldorf
III. both descended north of Quebec
and the ,Helvetia at Lake Temiskam-
Ing, 1t Is thought here that the Amer
lea II. may be down somewhere be-
tween Lake Temiskaming and Lake
st John, P. Q. If, ON the other hand,
the America II. crossed Lake Superior
well to the west, air currents may
have carried it into west Ontario. The
Azurea came down near Biscotasing,
on the main line of the Canadian Pa
cific railway, west Of Sudbury, Ont.
Besides the search being made for the
America II. by the Canadian govern
nlent, the United States, the Aero Club
of America and the New York Herald,
10000 officials, engineers, contractors
and iaborers on the National Transcon-
tfnental railway system between La
Tuque, P. O., near Quebec, to Superior
Junction In western Ontario, are on
the lookout for the balloon. The Hon.
8. N. Parent, chairman of the national
transcontinental railway commission,
has telegraphed to the officials in
charge of the divisions at La Tuque,
Mattawa, Ont, North Bay, Ont, and
Superior Junction that the America II.
is still missing and directing that any
news of 1t or its crew be Immediately
reported to him.
The foreign balloon Dusseldorf H.,
with Hans Gericke and Samuel F.
Perkins aboard, landed Wednesday
noon seventeen miles north of Lake
Kiskisink, which is $50 miles north
east of Quebec city. The distance from
st. Louis is about 1,240 miles. The
aeronauts made this statment:

we landed, and we could have stayed
up thirty-six hours longer, only that
had we gone to the end of all railroads
and could never have got back to

Louis to Milwaukee, then about north
east to the end Of the journey. We
