™*"^urr«HDonaeilc* of The Biter Ocean. p^iSP'ORT, MJM_,., Nov. 18.—When Captain Dahl, Mate .a. Anderson, and seamen P. Johnson, John Xiieeebert, and Joseph Oelrichs left the sinking schooner Flying Mist at 4 o'clock on the morning of Nov. 1G, two men—M. V. Osman, the steward, and seaman Carlson, would not venture in the already overloaded, leaky yawl, and were left on board. The officers in the boat promised that if they landed safely, they would swing a lantern, and try and aid them, or arouse the people of the vicinity to rescue them. The yawl was dashed upon the shore near Herring Creek, and the men had a narrow escape from drowning, the surf breaking over the boat and threatening to sweep the men from the thwarts, but by more luck than management they landed safely. Thorougly drenched, freezing, and nearly perished, the men wandered into a small patch of woods and finally found shelter with some farmers, who conveyed them to Frankfort. On arriving here they went about engaging the tug Hall, but not without losing nearly three hours of valuable time. By this time the wind had chopped to the squthwest and was blowing a tempest. The tug made an attempt to go but was forced to retnru. When at.ked if all hands were saved the oaptain answered, "Yes. we are all saved." In an interview during the afternoon The Inter Ocean correspondent learned that the two men had been left on board. The indignation of the citizens was intense at the heartless-ness of a captain leaving his crew in a sinking ship and not afterward even urging that, assistance be sent. Captain Dahl's excuse was that soirebody had told him the two men on his vessel were saved, but when or how he did not know. It is yet in order for him to rise and explain how it was possible for him to be so indifferent to the fate of the abandoned men. If it had been known in time, hundreds would have nocked there from Frankfort, and the life-savins crew from Point Betsy, iiilteen miles away from the wreck, would have been notified, and assisted the poor unfortunates. ABANDONED. The two men left on board kept anxiously peering toward the shore for the signal of the lantern, which was to inform them of the safety of the boat's crew. When the cold gray dawn of daylight appeared, they saw. the beach, eighty rods away, but not a sign of their companions. Thev concluded that the boat capsized, and all were lost, and that they were left as only survivors, and waited betweon hope and fear for deliverance. Seeing that the vessel was fast tilling with water, Mr. Osman secured the ship's papers about his body (the captain in. leaving had neglected to take them), and lashing their lugcaec to the mizzen rigging they awaited the outcome amid the howling of the storm and the groaning and creaking of the ship in her efforts to keep afloat. The immense seas would dash over her, crushing in the bulwarks, and washing eveiything moveable off the deck. With aching eyes they at last saw some men running about on the beach, waving their hands, etc. These men went away again, however, and did not return. It being now 8 a. m.. and the vessel lunging, pitching, and rolling terribly under the pressure of the terrific southwest gale, threatening to founder at every roll, the two sailors, at last despairing of help in their pitable condition, went to the last resort and set at work constructing a frail raft of bed-slats, cabin doors, table boards, etc., when, looking up to the southwest abou^ a mile away {Burnham Pier), they saw that efforts were being made to launch a boat. THE RESCUE. Two unsuccessful attempts were made, and each ttme the little craft capsized and dashed .:>n the shore. Again, for the third time, at 10 a. m., in the teeth of the bitter cold freezing storm, the big-hearted men started, laying on to their oars in a way that made them quiver and snap. They at last passed the rolling surf in safety, thenee, rowing straight out into the lake nearly half a mile, they turned and came toward the vessel. They brought to under her stern. It required great skill in handling the little craft to prevent her swamping. At last, between waves, the two sailors jumped into the boat the same instant, and none too soon. Three hirge breakers followed, dashing the boat far away, and sweeping over the ill-fated J'lyin g She gave one lurch and disappeared from ,sv beneath the waves. If the boat had been gt( ^ xinute later both men would have gone down sv" /A her. The gallant party were thrown ashore ..I safety. The names of these heroic men, who, thus dared to venture out to aid their fellow-men, are Jack Hornburger, Hugh Tonghy, Emmerson Bigsby, William Bryant, and one more whose name your correspondent did not learn. They are brave men, whose deed will be held in grateful remembrance by all who witnessed their noble action. The rescued sailors on reaching land were kindly eared for, ,-vnd once safe they wept like children ior their (as they * supposed) lost shipmates, 11. tie knowing that they were snttgly ho awed in the hotels at Frankfort, ten miles away; and in their half-perished condition, accompanied bv some citizens of Burnham, at once set out to patrol the shore and find the bodies, at least, as they would wash ashore. In the midst of their search the news reached them that the captain and others were all safe at Frankfort, and it was then that the truth dawned upon them that they had been basely deserted by the companions from whom they had the promise that they would save them if they reached the land. This is, indeed, "man's inhumanity to man," with a big T). Charges Burmeister. captain dahl in chicago. Captain Dahl was in Chicago yesterday. The reporter met him at the Custom House, and he said his men were here with him. His first remark was that the report that two of his men had been lost was false, and the reporter responded that from all accounts it was not his (the captain's) fault that they were not lost. I "They were saved at the last minute," continued the reporter, "by a small boat launched from Burnham's pier." "Yes," said Captain Dahl, "I was in that boat." The reporter said an authentic account (the one above) of all the circumstances had been received, and that he (the captain) was not in the boat. Captain Dahl then confessed that he was not in the boat, or at the scene at all. He .said he could not swing the lantern because the yawl-boat : landed three miles from the schooner; that he could do nothing to save the two men afterward, and that, anyway, he heard a rumor that som° ¦ craft had taken them off.

The eaptain and mate were rescued in a helpless condition, and are now at Big Island. The captain's wife and two children were swept overboard during the storm. Special Telejrram to The inter Ocean. 1 IPort Huron, Mich.', Nov. 22. Of all the terrible sufferings that men have had from the effects of the recent storm, the crew of the barge Iowa, now ashore near Cave Island, have suffered the most. Captain Williams is badly frozen, and is now lying in a small, dirty fish shanty awaiting death to relieve his sufferings, without the necessary food and medical aid. Others of the crew have their hands, feet, ears, and other exposed parts of the body frozen. Fishermen coming from there say that Williams cannot survive. THE MANISTEE. NO TIDINGS. Captain C. "P. Henderson, of the schooner Wo" bash, has arrived ;ii Cleveland by fail from Mar-J quette. He says of the loss of his vessel on|j Lake Superior: The tug Samson and tow encountered a heavy era!e Thursday, thre .if.thinst. Bauble, Lake Superior. The fleet was rnnnin; for Orand island in a blinding snowstorm. The] tow line of the Wabash and both the fore and main booms broke, and the vessel, beins iced up, became unmanageable, and, being off Pictured lioeks, was kept from going ashore as long as possible. When the vessel was Anally grounded it was on a sand beach not over twice the length of the vessel. The first sea that struck the vessel aft< :¦ lunching broke in the cabin and Split the vessel twice just abaft the foremast and aft the mainmast. The vessel , struck at 2 o'clock Thursday, and the next morning at 3 o'clock, the sea haviwg moderated somewhat, a raft was made of pieces of the wreck, and the crew of seven men all got ashore one at a time. Saved from the wreck, they were still in a peril-nus position, as there was a foot and a half of i snow on the ground, and the men suffered a great deal from the cold—most of them being frozen— and they were (measuring on a eh art) eleven miles from the nearest house, which they neyer could Ihave made over the rough ground! That afternoon the Samson ;ame along looicing for the crew, and they were got on board nearly famisapd, riot having had a bite to eat for thirty hours. The crew were got to Marquette, and there the fares of those who desired to come home by rail were ; paid by Captain Henderson, while the others: i shipped on on her vessels, The vessel is in a bad| j shape and can hardly be saved.

The only dispatch they got yesterday announced that, the tiig Maytham and Boutin's tug, according to instruction, was scouring the lake in a thorough search, and had not yet returned. Letters were received giving fuller particulars of the tug Maytham's first cruise, and saying that beside a portion of the Manistee's texas and a water pail a quanty of charcoal had been found. Nothing was said of any charred wreckage being picked up, and Leopold & Austrian scout the theory that the steamer took fii'e in the storm. They think her steering gear gave out or her machinery broke down, and that she then foundered. MORE NAMES. The following are additional names of those on board: Patrick Elchingliam, lookout: Herman Joerg, watchman; Joseph Young and George Johnson, wheelmen: Charles Reilly and Charles McCourt, firemen; Edward Bawdon, cook. The steward was F. N- Kilby, of Ogdensburg; cabin maid, Miss Donaldson, of Ogdensburg. The names of the five deckhands are not known in Chiicago. Hiarry Smith and Jonn Paine are mentioned as on board in some capacity. MORE WRECKAGE. SiT. Paul, Minn., Nov. 22.—A private dispatch froim Ashland, Wis., reports the steamer Japan finding lath, sash and doors on the beach of Isle Aoiyali which were supposed to be part of the lot on the ateamer Manistee. No definite news as yet., but the feeling is universal that she sank with all on board. ' WHAT CAPTAIN YOUNG SAYS. Special Telegram to The Inter Ocean. Cleveland, Ohio, Nov. 22.—Captain Young, of the propeller John 'N. Glidden, stated to a reporter this morning that his vessel left Bayfield the same time the Manistee left. She had been lying there five days, and her captain thought as the storm had lasted live long days It had spent its force, but a severe wind and snow storm sprung up that afternoon, and Captain Young says the vessel must have foundered in it. Captain Young also says he was sorry for having left, and would have given $500 that evening to have been back safe in port. Captain John McKay was a son of John McKay, of this city, and a brother of George McKay, who has charge of Hanna's vessels. LATEST FBOM DULUTH, Special Telegram to Ifcjfi Inter Ocean. Duluth, Minn., Nov. 22.- No tidings yet of the : ill-fated Manistee or her crew. Faint hopes have been entertained that possibly she might have made her way or been driven across the lake to the north shore, but steamers which arrived here to-«day and which came up the north shore report that they saw nothing of her, and even those j whio have been the most hopeful now regard it as I aba>utcertain that she has gone to the bottom with all hands. THE GOLDEN AGE. RUE ABEIVES SAFE IN POP.T. The monster ship Golden Age, which one of the papers "lost with all hands," arrived safely in Chicago yesterday. She is not damaged in the least, and her crew are all safe. Several other craft which some of the papers "feared for" also arrived in port here safely. See Port List. _ SCHOONER ARABIA. PROBABLY SAFE. Inquiries come from Toledo in regard to the schooner Arabia. She was safe Bay just before the gales set in, and Captain Doville wrote The Inter Ocean that she would be a longtime setting her cargo on board. She is propabty safe. known what the underwriters will do, but it is hardly possible that they will try tb release her, considering her condition and the lateness of the season. If the vessel had cone ashore one-half mile either way from where she did there would not have been the slightest chance for the vessel or crew, as they would likely have been dashed du the rocks. Of Captain Rum age, Captain Henderson speaks in the highest terms of praise. He pays he saw him at Marquette just a short time before his death, which occurred at about 8 o'clock Monday night. He was an old man- 64 years—had not been feeling well tnis summer, and the exposure, as well as the fretting at the loss of the Wabash, which, however, could not be : attributed to hftn, made the matter worse, and it I is said that Tip fvipf? likp a hahfe rnr&r Hi^ «.i..f^ I The special Treasury aigenfc who seizes all those Vox and "Wolf River steamers has been—'most beautifully "sat down upon" by the department at Washington. Just what figure Collector Hall, of Milwaukee, cut in the matter, is not now recalled. The Treasury ^decision was received in Chicago yesterday. It is addressed to Collector Hall and the sentence: "You are informed that no new light is thrown upon the case as submitted by vouT" sounds like very plain talk. The following is the document: Treasury Department, 'Washington.—Sir: I am in receipt of your letter of the 10th inst., reporting further in the case of the status of vessels navagating the Fox and Wolf Rivers and Lake Winnebago, all in the State of Wisconsin. It appears from your statement that these vessels are of peculiar and frail construction, being intended for, and used expressly in, the local traffic of these waters. Most of them are employed in towing rafts of saw-logs from the upper part of the rivers to saw-mills in the vicinity of Oshkosh, W is. Some of them, however, carry* .on a general freight and passenger transportation business, and nearly all of them are undocumented. 'Vhv steamers have all complied with the provisions of the inspection laws, but have never been enrolled and licensed. The Fox and Wolf Rivers are connected with Green Bay—the navigable waters of the United States—by-mean's of locks, dams, and canals, and the question has arisen whether such v^s*»ls should be docu-mentedMls employed on the waters of' the northern, northeastern, and nor h western frontiers. You state also that the enrollment of these vessels has been a matter of discussion for vca:-,-. and has never to your knowledge been authoritative] v denied. You are informed that no new light Is thrown upon the case as submitted by you." The vessels in question have not been documented because Tiie law does not require it bo long as thev uavi-the waters named and never enter a port of the United States. The department, therefore, sees no eood reason to change or modify the present practice'of exempting these vessels" from taking out marine papers. Very res bectfnlly, H. F.

(4n Sunday, Oct. 28, at 4 p. m., the schooner J. 11. Rutter, loaded with coal from Sandusky to Port Arthur, parted the tow-line which held her to the steamer Farwell and was driven by the I terrific gale then prevailing ashore .at the entrance to Detour. Here the vessel, securely I lodged amid the rocks and sand, has laid ever j" sinVe exposed to the terrific gales which have l been sweeping the lakes for the past few weeks. Intelligence of the disaster was wired at the time THEY WILL MISS HIM. THERE WTi.'I, BE ONE VACANT I H Perhaps there is not a person in Bay City better known than Captain Peter Teller. He has resided here off and on for about thirty years, and has had the esteem of all. i ? latter years he-was considered to be pretty comfortably well off, so tuv as finances were concerned, but* recent devel-wpxaettts show that his business affairs ar'e very badly mixed up. Some three weeks ago he de- j [parted from Bay City, having announced that the' [doctors-had advised him to seek a warmer cli- fenate on account of his health. He complained of p. pain at the base of the brain. As said before, he left the city. His going was known to a very few. Since then his business transactions have come to light. He was largely interested in company with John P. Clark, of Detroit, ¦ in dredges, to Detroit, and the tug Winslow, equipped with I. flour of the largest steam pumps, was sent ro her dump scows, and fi?hiner grounds, and was per lief. The tug, however, was compelled* owing to the rough weather, to put into harbor ¦ and E. V. at Sand Beach, and did not reach the Rutter until ' Nov. -J, On that date the pumps were put to work, and in live hours the water in the schooner lowered three and a half fee'., when the wrecking party-.was compelled to abandon the work by a heavy gale from the southeast. So Btrong was the hnrricane that it was impossible for the laborers to remain on the deck of the Butter, except at the risk of being swept into the lake. When the wind abated sufficiently to allow the resumption of labor it was found that the four pumps were utterly inadequate to perform f the work. Additional assistance was sum moued from Detroit, and the tug Swain, with another pump, left on the night of Nov. 7, reaching Detour the day following. Work was immediately resumed, .and attended with varying success until the 10th, when the schooner swung clear of all obstructions and was towed to the dock at Detour. Here the repairs necessary to enable her to stand the vovage 'was made, and the following day the Rutter was safely anchored at Port Huron, where she will unload and go into dry deck. When it is remembered that the Rutter was loaded with 1,700 tons of coal, and was aground in one of the most difficult places to effect a dislodgment on the lakes, the success of the wrecking party is regarded in marine circles as one of the greatest ifeats of the kind ever accomplished on inland w waters. men. and but knew nothine of the disaster. The thieves' on the beach would not even bother themselves to telegraph to St.'Joseph. Superintendent Rob-bins, of the life service, in a letter received in Chicago yesterday, alludes to the wretches on the beuch as "the worst kind of pirates," and ex-presses the feeling of all humane people bv sav- : ing "they ought to be hanged."

The Buffalo papers say there were grave fears for the steambarge Queen of the West. She is all right. She made Racine safely. The scow Sophia Lawrence is sunk off Pensau-kee. The schooner Monticello is at Green Bay City. In regard to the loss of the schooner E. Fitzgerald on the Canadian shore last week, it is claimed that Captain Hickler, of Buffalo, was in the immediate vicinity of the vessel with his tug, but couldVict go to the rescue of the crew, owing to the absurd regulations of the Canadian Government concerning wrecking, under which his tUg would have been liable to seizure if tie had offered assistance.—Buffalo ' ommercial. The Canadian wrecking "regulations'* would not have prevented the tug taking off the crew. Captain Hickler had better hold his peace. The wheat and corn on the wrecked propeller Oneida is being sold at 5 cents per bushel, and the demand for it is so great that it can hardly be got out fast enough to supply those in waiting. The men are* working on the wreck night and day. A Chebovgan letter says: "Captain Bundy, ' with his gospel ship, Glad Tidings, arrived in this port a few days ago. and the ship has gone into whiter quarters. The Captain will return to Chicago, and in the spring will resume his missionary work among the islands and destitute ports on the great lakes. He reports great success attending his efforts wherever h& has gone." The Chicago papers are great in praise of the conduct of the revenue cutter Andy Johnson, Captain Davis, for aid rendered the propeller N. K. Fairbank and schooners Monitor, J. S.

Some months ago he purchased the Anscomh House from AlOHZO Ans-comb, the consideration beine $10,0(10. As part payment Captain Teller turned in his residence and lots on the corner of Washington and Eighth streets. A mortgage on the house was given to Mr. Anscomb for $12,000, and others on the furniture to J. S. Smalley for $1,200 and'L. F. Rose for $140. Before leaving the city Captain Teller invested a lawyer with the power of attorney and instructed him to dispose of the tugs, pay the liens and mortgages upon them, and send the balance to his address, which he would mail him after reaching his destination. The "askinff" prices of the Marian Teller and K. V. Mundy were $4,600 and $4,000 respectively; the selling prices $4,200 and $3,600. In Bpeaklng to the attorney he said he would probably return in the spring, and there is no one who knows whether or not that he will return as stated. Since his departure his creditors have endeavored to secure their claims, but they found Teller's property already incumbered. The principal creditors and the amounts due are as follows : W. U.

Suits covering their property t have already been commenced by John P. Clark in the Circuit Court, and it is reported that he is assuming all the firm's indebtedness.
