SINCE BIG CATASTROPHE ON THE GREAT LAKES The Event Is Recalled in Kingston Marine Circles--Marine Depart ment Urges Navigators To Watch the Storm Signals Very Closely. It is just a year ago to-day (Nov. Sth) that occurred on the great lakes a terrible catastrophe which eatsed the loss of scores of lives and did damage running into- thousands of dollars. Marine men in Kingston are to-daj recalling the awful storm in which #0 many lives were lost. The heavy kales on Lake Ontario the past few days were sufficient to remind the mariners of the bad storm of just a Year ago. : One of the main .causes of the great loss of life and shipping was reckless disregard of storm signal: and warnings, It was shown at the investigations which were held thai many vessels went out of port wher ftorm' signals were hoisted, ane when it wzs almost impossible tc keep a vessel afloat. This" year the marine departmen issued special warnings to naviga tors and owners of vessels to afiserve in the strictest manner possible the matter of forecasts, and especi ally to take heed of any storm warn ings. If this is done it is believes any recurrence ui the shipping fatal ties will be obviated us storms of the magnitude of thet of last Noveni- her rarely develop in sho¥t order.
