SECTION OF THE COAST WHERE LIE THE BONES Twelve Bodies Ashore at Bakers Island, Four at Gloucester, Five on Nahant Beach, and Rumor of the Wreck of a Big Unknown Three Masted Schooner Between Narragansett Pier and Point JudithTwo Wrecks at Plymouth, But No Loss of Life, and More to Come. INO SLEEP F03 THREE MONTHS One Cause of Sleeplessnems That Can Headily Overcome. I Mr. Wm. Handschu of 46th St.

Cot-Iton Alley, Pittsburg, expressed himself as follows regarding the neva remedy for that common and obsti nate disease, piles: "I take pleasure in stating that I was so afflicted with piles that for three months I got no regupir sleep; I became completely prostrated, the doctors did me no good; my brether told me of the new remedy for piles, the Pyramid Pile Cure; I purchased from my druggist three 50 cent boxes, and they coram pletely cured me. I am once more at my work, and but for this excellent medicine I should be on my back. I take great pleasure in writing this letter, because so many people are suffvrers from this trouble who, like myself, did not know where to look for a permanent, reliable, safe cure." Experience with the Pyramid Pile 1 Cure in the past three years has demonstrated to the medical profession, as well as to thousands of sufferers from piles, that it is the safest and most effectual pile cure ever offered to the public, containing no opiates or poisons of any kind, painless and convenient to handle, and, being sold by druggists at 50 cents and $1 per box, is within the reach of every sufferer. Very frequently two or three boxes have made a complete cure of chronic cases that had not yielded to other remedy for years. There is scarcely a disease more aggravating and obstinate to cure than the various forms of piles, and it is a common practice to use ointments, salves and similar prepare1 tions containing dangerous poisons to remove the trouble.

The Pyramid has superseded all of these Ineffectual remedies, and no one suffering with any rectal trouble will make 1 any mistake in giving Pyramid a 1 I trial. If in doubt as to the nature of your trouble, send to the Pyramid Drug Marshall, for a valuable little book on piles, describing all forms of the disease and describing the method of cure. Any druggist can furnish the Pyramid Pile Cure, as it is the best known and most popular remedy for piles. and you ask him he can doubtless refer you to many people in your vicinity who have been cured completely by it. return to Taunton.

He was for years COMMilintlet of the Nevr Haven schooner Royal Arch, and before in the Briggs he was master of the Boston schooner Viator. He was captain of the Royal Arch when that vessel was lost some years agog and narrowly escaped with his life.

The other members of the crew were Isaac Andrews of Maryland. age 30; Harry and Lewis Mill lken, brothers. aged 24 and respectively, natives of Maine, and Emanuel Cain of Newfound-lac 37 years old.

The Briggs was the first three-mastel schooner ever built in New Eng lani to be equipped with steam for hoisting anchors and sails. Mr Phillips. her owner, also owned the big fattr-masted schooner John Paul. which two years aro was totally wrecked on point Judith. The Charles A.

The Varuna was headed for her wharf which she reached covered with ice along her decks and lower rigging. When she reached her moorings Capt Fairfield, who had been cared for by the crew as best they could, was taken to his home in a.

Pilot boat Columbia, which started on Tuesday to look for incoming vessels during the storm, returned yesterday, having placed her two pilots on the Ertlish steamer Strathmore, from Hamburg, and the cable steamer Minis, which has just tinished repairing the cable elf Fire lhe Carrie Phillips of the wharf fishing fleet arrived yesterday from the off shore fishing grounds. She reported that she had fallen in with the Bertha Nickerson, the vessel that Went adrift from Gloucester harbor while the storm was raging. The most interesting arrival was that of the tug Juno. having in tow the derelict schooner Albert H.

Harding. which was swept out of Gloucester harbor at about the same time a9 the Nickerson. The Harding hailed from Boston and is used as a sand carrier. She was riding at anchor without cargo. When she broke from her anchor she drifted across the bow of the schooner Lizzie Call, and, as she passed, her crew scrambled aboard the Call.

In half a minute after she had passed out toward the ocean. When the Cunarder Cephalonia arrived Tuesday he reported passing the Harding drifting across the harbor in the vicinity of Minots light. Her mainmast was gone at the deck, and her bowsprit and foretorimast head had been carried away by the storm. A dog could be seen running to and fro over her ice-covered and wreck-strewn deck. Tuesday afternoon the outside tug Taurus sighted the Harding and took her in tow.

turning her over later to the Juno, which brought her into port. Yesterday morning she was taken from wharf. where the Juno left her. to East Bton, where she will be docked and repaired. ICE-ARMORED SHIPS.

Steamers and Sailing Vessels Reach New York Harbor Carrying Tons of Ice on Rigging and NEW YORK, Feb 2Ice-armored from stem to stern, and with masts- resembling huge steel needles from their coverings of congealed spray, a fleet of a dozen steamers reached port today, and sailing vessels that had been repeatedly blown from the ccast for three days managed to make the harbor at last. The Atlas liner Altai looked as if she had been on a voyage to the Arctic as she slowly steamed in the bay from Central American ports. Her hull was ice incrusted to the depth of at least four inches, and the deckhouses, too, bore the same glittering covering. The bridge bulkhead looked like a fortress of solid ice. On the fcrecastle head was more than a ton that had formed layer upon layer as she plunged on her way through the head seas.

The Kaiser Wilhelm II arrived from Genoa with 32 cabin and 200 steerage pastiengers. For at least nine days not a steerage passenger was allowed on deck. Her hatches were double battened and the companionways locked. Even the officers feared to go out on the saloon deck. for the waves leaped over the forecastle head and raced successively over the steamer's sides.

Last Sunday afternoon, when the Kaiser was near midocean. a tremendous waterspout was seen three miles to the southwest. It Was rushing along at the rate of 39 miles an hour. It. collapsed two miles south of the Kaiser.

Other ice-coated vessels to arrive loday included the Kensington, from Antwerp. the Ward line trinuri. from Mexican ports arci Havana; the Galileo. Sagina, from Port Au Prince: Lackawanna. from Liverpool; Excelsior.

Ozer Piled Up on Plymouth Beach and Badly Damaged. PLYMOUTH. Feb 2The rescuing party that went to Plymouth beach to lend aid to the unknown returned late last night and it was then learned that the unfortunate craft the David A. Ozier of Boston the new fishing schooner launched a few weeks ago, and which went into the fishing business forthe Boston market. Both the captain and owner were on board, and are feeling very badly over the loss.

The schooner is lying on the back of Plymouth beach, near the point, just north of Bartlett cottage. The captain said that they were at anchor under Clarks island with two anchors out. and when it blew so furiously they both gave way and she started for the lee shore. All sail was set in hopes of getting her into the harbor. but the sea broke right over her and carried away both booms and other rigging.

She touched ort Dicks plat and then struck on the beach in the surf, where she now lies, badly damaged and full of water. She had 5000 pounds of fish on board, which is being taken out and brought up to town. The crew is taking everything out of her, but it is hard to tell whether she can be saved. She had a new set of gear and trawls, which were lost. The men succeeded in getting ashore with only a wetting, and are quartered in one of the summer cottages.

BIG UNKNOWN SCHOONER. Supposed to Have Gone Down With All Her Crew, Between Narragansett Pier and Point Judith. rROVIDENCE, Feb 2A big unknown three-masted schooner went to pieces. It is thought, on the rock-bound coast of Narragansett bay. between the Pier and Point Judith, early yesterday morning, and all on board probably perished.

The Pier and Point Judith patrols saw nothing of the vessel Monday night, but from Block island, where the fiercest gale ever seen was blowing Monday night comes the report that such a vessel was seen driving in toward Narragansett bay about the time in question. The coast In the of the Pier Is strewn with wreckage, booms. spars. etc. but nothing has been cast up which would indicate the identity of the wrecked vessel.

12 BODIES FOUND AT MAGNOLIA. Three-Masted Schooner in Distress Seen Off Eastern PointTramp Steamer Crippled. SALEM, Feb 2Word was received here at 11.30 a today that 12 bodies were picked up on the beach at Magnolia this forenoon. Joseph Perkins, who came up from Bakers island tnis forenoon, said that ne saw a three-masted beLlooner in distress oft Eastern point last night. lie also saw a tramp blealller NeStefdAY oil Gales ledge, 5olue two nines oir Bakers island, and aiso a steamer in a cripied condition enter the outer harbor tiLs forenoon.

Mr Perkins, who is a pilot, noticed several vessels yesterday off cape Ann endeavoring to make harbor. The spindle on Hardy rock, one mile west of Bakers island, is missing. Mr Perkins has been a pilot in Salem hay for 35 years. and he says the storm Monday night and yesterday was the toughest he ever experienced. BORE MARKS CF STORM.

Several Vessels Come Into Port with the Prints of the Northeaster's Teeth Capt Fairfield with Croke.) Ribs. There were several arrivals yesterday of vessels that had gone safely through the storm of Monday and Tuesday, but not without marks of the experience. The pilot boat Varuna brought with her one of her pilots disabled with a wrenched shoulder and several broken ribs. About 10 o'clock on Monday night the Tampa put pilot McMillan on board the Cunarder Catalonia in the midst of a howiing gale, and began to cruise around for new arrivals. The storm was then at its night.

Capt Fairfield. one of the pilot was at the wheel. The little vessel was reefed down to the smallest point and was Making the best weather posible uncier the cirCumstances. As she labored a mighty eaine over her stun ana tt)lt! tne pilot front tile wheel. throwing niin over itie bihnale into thrt cockpit.

He fell on nis right side and shoulder. breaking several ribs and wrenching his right shoulder. The same sea smashed one of the starboard boats, little later the wind f3P IN TROUBLE ON THE SOUTH harbor like a leaf before the wind, but with steerage way on. Mate Haymer knew every inch of the harbor. The hoarse rumblings of the breakers on Dog bar and on Normans Woe guided him by the sound to the strait and narrow path to sea and to safety.

It was a desperate chance. but the fisherman was ready to take it. The vessel fairly leaped ahead down the bay before the wind, but those aboard knew the route well, and soon the hoarse, bull-mouthed roarings of the breakers were astern and the men realized that they were in the open, where no needle pointed ledges yawned to pierce the vessel's side. All this had been accomplished in the blackness of the night. with the snow sheeting down to further obscure the vision.

The only guiding hand had been the friendly flare of the red flash light on Eastern point, the beams of which penetrated the gloom and directed tho crew the more certainly to safety. The perils of the vessel were by no means at an end. Once outside and the rigging, sails and blocks of the craft became rapidly encased In an icy mail which rendered them ponderous and almost unmanageable. Three men to guide such a large craft was like an effort of pygmies. Once a double-reefed foresail was rigged on the vessel but the peak halliards became unrove and the effort had to be abandoned.

After being beaten and buffeted about the gale began to moderate, and the forestaysail and riding sail were set, and with these the vessel was held to the wind fairly well. It was piercing cold and the hail and snow cut like flints into the faces of the men, but they never flinched. When the first welcome gleams of daylight appeared the crew found themselves well under the south shore. The vessel had by this time become badly iced tip and unmanageable. She beat and floundered about in the bay Tuesday forenoon and at noon, when 12 miles from Minots light, a sail was sighted.

Relieved by the Phillips. A flag was placed in the rigging as a signal of distress. The approaching craft, which proved to be the schooner Carrie E. Phillips, bound in to Boston with a fare of fresh fish, bore down and sent a dory with five men aboard, Louis Ramos, John Green, Alex. Halloran, William Williams and Fred Teal.

With the assistance of these the sails were hoisted and the Nickerson brought to this port. But for the providential appearance of the Phillips it is a matter of some doubt whether the Nickerson would ever have reached port. The captain and two men were warmly congratulated all the morning on their rescue. It is generally conceded that there must have been some 20 or more in number of the members of coasting crews that perished on the Norman's Woe shores. The sea has swallowed all the evidences, and very little can be ascertained about them.

One of the coasting captains who was saved says that he is sure that aboard one of the missing coasters were a woman and several children. Corroborative evidence of this is said to have been secured in the fact that among the wreckage cast ashore is a trunk containing women and children's clothing. If this is the case the calamity takes on an added element of pathos. There is evidence tending to show that if the Camp Comfort and Dollivers neck shore had been properly patrolled more lives would have been saved. The narrow escape of the coaster George W.

Jewett's crew confirms this. One of the four bodies found at this point was that of a stalwart young man. which was discovered casually by Capt George W. Scott, about 300 feet from the shore. Happening to examine some debris he came across what he thought was a man's foot embedded in the sand.

Calling assistance he dug several feet in the sand and brought to light the almost nude body of a sailor. But a small piece of underwear and one rubber boot was his sole raiment. When found the body was frozen stiff. Had it been cast up by the sea it is argued it would have been limp, and the further fact that it was found so near the wreck embedded leads to the supposition, amounting to conviction with some, that the man divested himself of his clothing, swam ashore, and failing to find shelter, buried himself a it in In to 5 til it 45 OF MANY on to it, and once there I he hope of getting off is small. But Gloucester harbor is considered One of the best on the coast, and the disasters there are all the more unexpected on that account.

The harbor is about two miles long and a mile wide. and has excellent holding ground. The going ashore of the vessels was due undoubtedly to the destroyed in many Instances. Samuel Thur.3ton lost a tine new lobster boat. Funeral services Were held at the undertakirg rooms at Pigeon Cove yesterday over the remains of Reinning, Swede, who was drowned.

The wires still remain in the same hopeless tangle the storm left them, and the telegraph officials say it will be weeks belore communication Will be established again. This interrupticn hurts the fish business much, as trades are made, especially in fresh fish.

almost entirely by wire. The first telegraon communication received by the Gloucester fresh fish company since the gale came today from New York via the cable at Canso and at Rockport. It will be at least a week or 10 days before the electric railroads are operating in their completeness again. The snow has packed hard beyond the efforts of a plow, and in the suburbs the dittimilty Is increased by the traveling public making the roadbed in the tracka packing the snow. BODIES ON BAKERS ISLAND.

Effort Will be Made to LLeach the Place and Identify Them. MAGNOLIA, Feb 2There is great Interest manifested in the report that the bodies of 12 men had been picked up just off shore, and are now at Baker island, about three miles from here. An effort will be made tomorrow to reach the island and have the bodies taken to the mainland for identification, and perhaps solve the mystery of the Mareellus and the James Holmes. SEVEN BODIES RECOVERED. Men Were Lost in the Wreck of the Schooner Charles A.

Briggs Tuesday MorningNot as Yet identified. LYNN. Feb 2Seven bodies have now been recovered from the wreck of the schooner Charles A. Briggs, which was driven ashore early Tuesday morning. The bodies of five drowned sailors came ashore this morning and one this afternoon.

Another was found yesterday. It is now certain that at least seven lives were lost in the terrible storm along this coast. The body found this afternoon was clothed in oilskins and beneath was a dark suit of clothts. There was nothing In the pockets to assist in Identification. All the bodies, with the exception of the trunk and dismembered one, are not mutilated to a degree which makes identification difficult If their friends can be found.

One leg is missing from the mutilated body, and It is supposed it was torn off when coming in contact erith the rocks along the coast. The search for more bodies is still being continued. AU the bodies he at the police station In the basement of the town hall, and it Is a ghastly sight to witness. Large crowds from this city have visited Nahant today out of curiosity, and have viewed the remains of the men, but none have been identified. It is expected tomorrow that the owners of the Briggs, who reside at Fall River and Taunton, will come to this city and assist in clearing up the mystery surrounding the names of the crew, captain, etc.

The town hall has been converted Into a morgue, and the private apartments of Chief of Police Phillips has never before held such a number of dead bodies men who in life were sailors and braved the dangers of the sea, but who are now unknown. In the trousers pocket of the man stipposed to be the captain was found an open-face gold watch that had stopped at 1.17. The watch was marked Sanborn, Lowell." and the case was numbered 10,989 and the movement 10,922. A letter was also found, but the witter hail obliterated nearly all the writing. In a coat found floating in the wreckage was found another letter, but the writing on this also was nearly obliterated.

On one of the men was feund a membership book of the Atlantic coast seamen's union, which bore the name of Isaac Andrews. His number was 19, on the roll. He was born in Maryland in 18(1, color of eyes blue, medium build and the date of hii membership was July 22, 192. This book RISC) contained a card of the Boston seamen's friend Focietv, 2S7 Ilanover st, and was marked for a supper last Tuesday evening. A number of receipts were also found on the body, show.ng that dues had been paid by Andrews The receipts were signed by Sec James H.

Williams, secretary of the New York t. and in the Philadelphia district Sec H. M. Kin-son signed the receipts. Two of the bodies had on rubber boots and the ethers were partially undressed.

while the dismembered body was naked. One of them was dressed in oilskin trousers and dark clothes. He ha black hair, stubby mustache. was five feet seven inches tall and weighed about 150 pounds, and in his pockets was found a Chinest laundry check. Another man wore blue overalls over a black stilt of clothes, bai sandy hair and mustache.

He had light hair, mustache, and had a short beard. He was about five feet nine inches tall, and weighed about Cape Ann, that rockbound and rugged promontory which projects eastward from the northern part of the Alassachusetts shore, has probably seen more wrecks than all other parts of the shore put together. Any gale from any point to the eastward of north or south drives vebsels in bringing a large number of men to the rescue of the imperiled men early Tuesday morning. Casualties to Date. The casualties as revised to date are as follows: Three-masted schooner George W.

Haymer and crew's experience as they relate it was most thrilling.

The Nickerson was near Ten Pound island with three anchors Out. About 3.31) o'clock Tuesday morning two of the huge chain anchors parted, leaving only the cable.
