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.
The only I tody washed ashore was that of
Joseph StedSey, a seaman. The other vie
tinis were: Anton Perry, Peter Nelson, L.
