for life to the steakhouse in god
and nearly dismantled v i." was the alt-
natlon of Captain James Gurney. Jr. . and
11 sailors of the barkentlne Bruce Haw
kins. which was abandoned on Nov. 11.110
miles southeast of Cape Hatteras. Cap-
tain Gurney. who was landed with his
crew in this port yesterday. gave a graph
in description of the suflerlngs of the men
‘and of the edorts to save Chief Mate Fra
ser. who was lost overboard
The barkentine left Savannah Nov. it
with 400. OOQfeetof Georgia pine on board.
The lumber on deck was piled so high
that there was barely room to swing the
foreyard. There was a fair wind from the
south. antiths Bruce Hawkins was under
all sail until the night of Novil. Then
the wind shifted suddenly to the north
east. At daylight of the 12th it was blow-
ing a whole gait. and the ocean was like a
boiling caldron.
Sail had been reduced. and the barkcn-
tine was heaved to under a double reeled
spanker and foretopsail. Her heavy deck-
load was soon washed loose by the waves
and carried overboard. The hulwarks
were broken into splinters by the lumber,
and before noon of the 12th the cabin and
forecastle ware flooded.
In the enormous scan the harkentinc
rolled like a log. and early in the after-
noon her main and mlzzen masts snapped
off and went over the side. Most of the
crew were knocked off their feet, and
Chief Mate Fraser and William Garden.
.a sailor, were swapt overboard. Captain
Gurney had his nose and two ribs frac-
tured. Hejnmpcd quickly to his feet. and.
swinging himself to the spanker guy,
caught Seaman Garden as ho was being
swept past on the crest of a wave.
The captain drew Garden on board and
then had lines thrown to Fraser. who
could still be seen astorn of the vessel.
The lines did not reach him. and in a
brief space he aeuk and was seen no more.
lashed so the backbone.
The wreck of the main and mlzzsn
masts was chopped loose and then captain
and crew crept along the starboard side
to the steakhouse aft, and there they man-
aged to lash themselves The deekhouse
partially protected them from the seas.
A keg containing 25 even biscuits as
hard as flint had been secured and agiass
half filled with jelly. The jelly was sto-
len by one of the hungry sailors and do
vourcd, and to prevent the crackers from
being wasted the keg was watched.
The barkcntino was entirely waterlog-
ged on therldth, anti she was rapidly set~
tllng by the head. Her starboard rail was
under water. and in the cabin and forc-
castlc it was five feet deep. The waves
still rolled high. and. with not a sail in
sight. the men hung on and waited for
rescue or death.
Hungrily they cyed the keg containing
the precious hardtaok. The entire con-
tents of the keg would hardly have made
a meal for one of them. They would have
gladly devoured every biscuit had not the
captain kept. them back and gave each
than half a biscuit. a day.
The storm abated somewhat on the aft-
crnoon of the 13th. and one of the sailors
was sent to fasten n burgeo to the fore-
royal stay. The ensign had been hoisted.

The tortures of hunger and thirst. made
the than half crazy during the night. of
the 13th. Half of the precious store of
biscuits was loft. and they dcnuuuied
them of the captain. but he and Second
Mate Muller fluuliy persuaded them to
wait.
Ito-cued at heat.
When the British steamship Ardanmo
hor was sighted on the afternoon of the
ilth. the men again clamorcd for the his-
cuita. and this time the food was equally
divided down to the lust biscuit. Captain
Davey of the Ardanvnohor. who had eight
ed some of the wreckage of the Iirueo
Hawkins, had been on the lookout for the
vessel. and he quickly bore down on the
wreck and took off the exhausted crew.
They were landed in Havana. and passage
for New York was secured for them on
the Ward liner Vigilanoia. They wore
taken to Hoffman island on arrival at
quarantine, as they had not been five days
out of Havana. but yesterday the tug
Governor Fiowur landed them in this city.
Besides those mentioned the crew com-
prised Peter ltsser. Charles Hughes.
George Ernest and Charles Pierce. Cap
taln Gurney left yesterday for his home in
East Boston. Chief Mate Fraser lived in
North Adams. Mara. and he was the only
support of an aunt and two sisters.
The battered wreck of the llruoo Haw.
kins was towad iuto Norfolk a few days
ago. t-lhe was owned principally by the
captain, who valued her. when sound. at
3213.000. The cargo was worth ".000.
