STARVATION THREATENS
BELLE ISLE WORKERS

QUEBEC. December 27.-Fifteen per-
sons in the government lighthouse and
by starvation because Of the failure of
the delivery Of their winter provisions
A telegram received here from Belle Isle
late last night said that the government
employees, including two lighthouse
keepers. three wireless operators, and
their wives and children, were isolated
from the rest of the world and had only
a scanty supply Of provisions on hand.
The government steamer Aronmoor
loaded with provisions for their relief
was then transferred to the government
steamer MontcalIn, now at Bonne bay
Newfoundland. but she has been delayed
in reaching the government stations be-
cause Of the bad weather and ice packs.
The Eaontcalm is only days run from
Belle Island.
