The Vessel Itecoinvs Unmanageable in the Heavy Swell and Uook lu Pieces Among the Breakers The Crew Half Drunk Story of the Captain List o the Vic tims. San Francisco, t'al, Dec. 20. K very one was amazed Frit lay to bear that the whaling bark Atluntie liati txvn wrecked on the ocean beach souk six miles to the west of this city, ami most of tho crew drowned. The night bad been wonderfully calm, and this, it appears, was the cause of the disaster, which ocvurcvd within a few hundred yards of the United States live-savins station, on a smooth, shelving beach. The bark was towed out to sea at 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon on the flood tide. Not a bit of wind was then stirring. When given what appeared suffi cient sea room, she was cast off. The sea, as often happens on the Pacific, was running very hih, though tut ir was calm, and the long swell broke on the sand beach in a heavy surf. After rolling around disobedi ent to the helm for many hours the bark floated in on the flood tide. An almost im penetrable mist ohscurrod the vision of the balf-drmikeu crew, and they wore only made aware of their perils by the thunder of the surf. Both anchor were let go in seven fathoms of water, but the sandy bottom afforded no hold and the bark was in a few moments among the breakers. The re mainder of the story as told by the captain, is as follows: '"The sea commenced sweeping over Ihe vessel's deck at 1:30 a. m. The bark was struck by a wave and immediately a heavy sea boarded her, staving in her starboard side and sweeping off three or four men. I told the first officer to trv and clear away the boats. The officer succeeded, and he and a dozen meu cot into one boat, T ne twt was cleared awav and shot under tho counter the vessel and capsixed. That was the last we saw of the men. Just then another boat was made ready and into it the second mate, s.x men, and myself jumped and cleared away. A heavy swell came rolling over the deck of the vessel, and, tailing into the boat I was in, swnmiod it. W e all struggled in the water, and 1 tried to gi-t a hold on the boat or some other pi.xre of timber, but I faded, nndthe swell carried m away. As 1 waf; beng carried along iu the water 1 went to 'Jje bottom once under a havy sell and v is roiled along in the sand." T ie captain, like the other survivors of the wreck, was finally rolled m half dead on thfi beach, where all would have perished but fov thetiiuelv assistance of a ha'. kinan and a party of early morning revelers, who were: Ui-iving along the beaeh to the CliiY house. The men wrapped the exhausted sailors in their overcoats and the wouwi gave them their wrap-i. Meantime the life saving offi cials found their services vera in demand, and moving on the scene they shot a line over the wreck, but without any results, and Itefore daybreak the bark went to pieces, l hose left on her being drowned.
