NINE PERSONS DROWNED. Mayflower Springs Leak in Mada waska River and Sinks. A despatch from Ottawa says: Nine lives are believed to have been lost in the Madawaska River on Tuesday night soon after ¥ o'clock, when the old wheel steam- er Mayflower, a small 50-foot boat, capsized and sank three miles out of Barry's Bay, after springing a leak. Of the twelve people aboard, ten of whom were passengers and two members of the crew, three passengers, namely, Gordon O, Peverley, J. 8. Imlach and M. J. Harper, all of Ottawa, and come mercial travelers, are alive to tell the story of the terrible disaster. They were found by a search party who rowed out from Barry's Bay to an island about three miles dowa the river, in a very exhausted con- dition. From the brief story of the dis- . aster that could be obtained from the three survivors, they say thas the MagSoyer sprang & leak soom after . left Barry's Bay. Her hold rapidly filled with water, and those on board quickly realized thas death was imminent. There was hardly & moment to decide on how their uy could be saved A bowls ing wind was sweeping down ovef the river, which 5 nearly a oy wide at the point where the boat sprang a leak, and the 'water was lashing the sidek of the ill-fated boat with a vengeance. All around was black. Not a light could, be seen any- where. The boat began to lurch a little, a little more and then ter- ribly, when the old coal-eil lamps went out by being crashed to the floor, and 1m: a few minutes whea all was in darkness the boat keeled over broadside and sank suddenly, throwing passengers, crew, freight which 'there was a good' deal aboard, and machinery, into the icy water. The wooded shores threw back the echoes: of the ¢ries. . of the drowning souls; The three survivors were able to discern some Spare of timber floating near to where they had been: hurled into the water. Each tried to cheer the ther with words of encouragement, - half perished in water that was here. | a ol
