A Man Who Saw Engineer Swains Die.
Some Facts Xot Hitherto Pnblislied.
(Coos Bay News, 22.)
One of the unfortunates came
ashore on a life raft several miles
above the entrace to the bay last Sat
urday. His name is James McGarry, and
he served in the capacity of a water
tender on the ill-fated vessel. He
came to the Neies office Monday
afternoon, and from bim we learn of
his awful experience. Tho vessel
went down with thirteen men on
board, between 2 and 2:50 o'clock
Monday morning McGarry's watch
stopped at 2;30, but ho may have been
in the water some time before the
works were affected. After coming to
the surface he seized a piece of the
deck and crawled on top. A man
named Welch, a coal passer, also got
on the same piece. One of the sailors
came along with n raft and the two
men got on board with him. Shortly
afterwards they met another raft
floating in the debris with "another
sailor on it They mnnnged to get
alongside, and lasliod bom raits to
gether, and drifted in this manner
abont three hours, when they decided
to separate, thinking the chances
were better for being picked up. Mc
Garry and Welch stayed on one raft
and the two sailors, whoso names wo
did not learn, went on the other.
After separating they picked up chief
engineer Swain, who was floating on a
plank in an exhausted condition, and
about an hour afterward, picked up an
other mdn. Swain died about on
hour and a half after getting on the
raft, and they rolled the body over
board. The other two died a few
hours later. One of them got deliri
ous before dying, and attacked Mc
Garry with a piece of drift wood,
Btrikinp him a severe blow on tho
head. The man was finally pacified
and laid down on tho raft as though
he had fallen asleep, and when Ale
Garry shook him, he found lie was
dead. He kept the body on board
tor a day, and then rolled it over
board, as he had dono the others.
Ho drifted all alone then, and on tho
third day got close to land. Ho had
no food of any kind, but as it was
storming and raining all tho time he
managed to catch enongh water by
holding up a board and taking the
water that dripped from it.
On Friday last ho got in close to
C003 bay bar, and hoisted a signal
of distress, bnt conld not attract at
tention. He whs off tho whistling
buoy in tho evening when the Cape
Arago lamp was being lighted, bnt
shortly afterwards drifted to sea
again. On Sunday morning the raft
set shoreward, and got into the break
ers north of the Ten Mile creek.
The first breaker capsized the raft,
throwing McGarry into tho surf, and
ho struck out for shore, which he
only to bo carried oft again by the
undertow. This was repeated several
times, till a wave larger than the
previous ones threw mm higher upon
the beach, where he laid for a time to
recover his fast failing strength, and
then crawled ont of reach of the
angry surf.
The raft came ashore a short dis
tance below him. He walked from
there to the point below Empire,
where ho met a Chinaman, who took
him to his shanty and gavo him some
clam soup, which was tho first food
ho had tasted for six days, his last
meal being on Sunday. The China
man took him to Empire, whero lie
was well cared for, and from thence
he came to the marine hospital at
Marshheld.
We venture to say that there are
but few men who could have lived
through the hardship endured by
McGarry. Six days and nights on a
frail raft, lUil feet, exposed to the
elements with nothing to shelter him.
a horrible death from starvation
staring him in the face, it was a won
der he did not become delirious and
end his sufferings by n plunge over
board. During the time he was on
the raft he saw many vessels, but
could not make himself seen, yet he
never despaired; his wonderful pluck
and grit stayed with him through
all.
It will be some time before he is
ready for active service. His hands
areyot swelled, and various portions
of his body are badly chafed from
his enforced position of sitting or
lying on tho raft. He 'looks well.
however, considering everything, and
tho effects of his thrilling exponenco
will only bo temporary.
Nothing has been heard of the re
maindcr of the crew up to time of
going to press, and it is feared that a
majority at least ol da yet nnao
counted for havo found n watery
grave.

The Swiftest Pish.
I asked an old salt the other day
which was the swifter, a flying fish or
a dolphin. "Why, a dolphin, of course.
I have seen it proved. One day our
ship was in the doldrums down near
the equator, and all hands were loll
ing about deck grumbling and whis
tling for a breeze, i had just gone
aloft, and, standing upon the top
gallant crosstrees, with my body rest
ing upon the royal yard, wa3 looking
off on the starboard beam. I saw a
flying fish spring up out of the water,
followed by a dolphin, and both made
straight for the ship. When they ar
rived at the vessel the dolphin went
under and the flying fish went over,
dropping square into the dolphin's
mouth as he struck the water on the
other side. The ship drew eighteen
feet of water and only about nine
feet abovo water. So I say, in this
case, the dolphin was the swifter
fish."
