That tho boat was the fishing boat

About 2:30 Herman Hansen,
known ns "Steanibcor," ranio Into

had been off shoro with tho IJIg

of this city. He said tho boat was

The life boat wbh then well on Its

hard for the Const Guard crow to ge;j

It Is so cold nnd choppy off shore
that It is not bolloved that anyone
on the luckless crnft could have long
tun trod tlio disaster.
Tho Coast Guard crow had not
returned at four o'clock.
Lator word from tlio Capo Arngo
Lighthouse was to tho effect that tho
tout was passing out to sou mid
heading toward Sacchi's bench, south
of Sunset Hay. From tlioro nothing
could be eeen of tho distressed
craft.
Drifting to Son
At Ilia tlmo of ills nailing. Mr.
Sacclil was unublo to toll tho name
of the gasoline bout or tho numbor of

Great fear wa3 felt that tho coa.it
