Philadelphia, Jan. /. 49, Thrilling
stories of the manner in which they
had been rescued from the bark Car
rie Winslow as that vessel, every
seam split asunder by the waves Of
three storms, was rapidly sinking
beneath the raging sea, were told
here. Monday night by Capt. Carlson,
the commander of thc ill-fated bark,
his young wife, the mate and eight sail
ors. They reached here, Monday, ON the
British steamer Syndic, volunteers
from whose crew braved the heavy
waves in the only remaining lifeboat
to effect the rescue.
The Carrie Winslow, loaded with
1867 tons of ccal, cleared from this
city, Dec. 20, for Fernandina. Severe
gales were encountered soon after
passing Cape Henlopen. Heavy storms
ragged on Christmas eve and on last
Friday and Saturday. About mid
night Friday the gale reached hurri-
cane force and the foremost fell, car
rying away one of the two lifeboats.
The bark soon began to list heavily to
port and it was discovered that there
was more than four feet of water in the
hold The entire crew manned the pumps
night AT daybreak Capt. Carlson strap
ped himself to the peak of the remaining
mast and started n lookout. which was
finally rewarded by the sight of the Syn
die which responded to signals of distress
and endeavored to launch a Hfeboat. The
little craft was, smashed like an eggshell
against the side of the steamer and fur
.ther attempts at rescue Were abandoned
for the time, in hope that the storm would
subside.
After standing by from A. NJ. until
in the afternoon, it was seen the Winslow
would be unable to withstand another
night. A last desperate effort was made
and the only lifeboat which remained un-
injured on the Syndie was launched and
succeeded in reaching the Winslow. Mrs.
Carlson, a bride of only a few months,
was the first to be taken off. Two other
trips We're required before Capt. Carlson.
the last to leave the bark, was brought
off 1t was o'clock before he was land
ed aboard the steamer.
