 In Narragansett Bay

 The Fred Snow company was oysters for the H. J. Lewis Oyster company of this city when she went down. It was said at the Oyster company to-day that the captains son, Leonard Tate, the latter about 30 years of age, was on board this trip but it was not thought that there was a woman cook as at first reported. A man cook had always been employed on the schooner. Other details of the accident were not known at the oys- ter company.
 It is thought that the schooner was top heavy and capsized in the choppy sea in the boy Friday night or early Saturday morning.
 At low tide, twenty feet of the nnasts of the sunken ship appear above water. The jolly boat and dingey can be made out under water indicat- ing that the vessel sank. suddenly giv- ing those on board no opportunity to take to the boats.
 It is reported that the Fred Snow had been leaking. She was an old boat, having been built in 1855, and was formerly the Niagara For the last 40 years she has been in the oys- ter business between Long Island ports and Narragansett Bay, and for the past 80 years has made an aver age of 30 trips a year to Providence harbor. She <was a speedy vessel, and one of the best known visitors to this port.
