MAY HAVE ALSO GONE DOWN

1t has been reported that a five
masted schooner has been lost near
Tybee, and many believe it to be the
fve-masted schooner Rebecca Pal
mer, which sailed from this port last
week for New York. According to
a dispatch from Savannah the schoon-
er has been wrecked, and it is also
believed that it is the Palmer.
The schooner took on a cargo of
crossties at this port, being loaded
by the Germain company. She was a
large schooner and regular trader
at this port. The Palmer, it is
thought, was the only five-masted
schooner scheduled to be in the vicin-
