April 30.-—The Hale lfax schooner Onoro, of 137 tone, was wrecked early today on a reef on Dun- can' a Cove, about twenty miles t of trains): and her septum and ere lost. It is uncertain exactly ny were on board the vessel, but she sailed from here for the West Indies a few weeks ago she carried a crew of five men besides her captain, John At- kinson. of New Brunswick. Two bod- ies, which have not been identified. were washed ashore within a few hours after the wreck occurred. and the ship’s boat, badly smashed, was found on a ledge. From this It was believed that tueerew endeavored to make the shore after the schooner struck. that the small boat was dashed against the rock and the men perished.

She was sighted by pilots yesterday of! Sambro, heading for this port in the northeasterly gale and rain- storm, At duybrenk this morning she was seen lying on the reef a wreck, With the tremendous seas constantly swueping over her. Her masts were standing and her foreseii and Jib were set. Apparently she had been aban- doned. and those who first. saw the ves- sel were unable to do anything towards reaching her on account of the heavy seas. it was apparent that unless the sea should moderate rapidly, of much here was little prospect, the vessel would soon gate pieces. T e place on stock the vessel struck was some dis- .ancc out of her course, and it is be- lieved that she missed her reckoning 15 the darkness and storm. the wreck was known, those on the shore found the smashed ship's boat In a crevice between the lodges, and later two bodies were washed ashore. They were badly bruisd and disfigured by having been dashed against the rocks. A patrol is being maintained along the shore in the expectation that the bodies of others of the crew will be cast up by the sea. 7 Thirteen Members of‘ Crew Lost. FALMOUTH.
