CHR1ST1ANA, May 31.-The White
Sea this spring has witnessed tragic
and dramatic shipwrecks of gigantic
dimensions Thirty-one Norwegian
seal hunting ships have been wreck
ed in the White Sea since the end oi
the winter.
The Russian ice breaker SabbetniK
has just arrived at Tromsoe with
thirty NorWegians rescued from three
wrecked ships. One of the SHIPPERS
said the season had been the worst in
his memory, and ice very heavy. His
ship. with several others, was wreck
ed on the night OF April IS in fierce
hurricane. After being taken on
board the Sabbotnik he counted
twenty ships frozen in the ice, many
lying with their entire huIls on the
surface of the ice, while the crews
had left their ships and had camped
on the open ice with barely sufficient
necessaries even for short stay.
There is small hope that these men
were rescued, and probably most Of
them have either starved to death or
been frozen.
