They will be turned over to the British consul. Captain Sullivan declared that when he drew near the schooner he plainly could see what appeared to be a general fight raging upon the little craft's deck amidships, snd that one of his officers said he had heard what he believed to be two pistol shots. 'The. survivors, Douglas Ntcholl, Thomas Molton, Lorenzo Ash snd Ernest Frixxard. all told virtually the same story except as to some of the details, which the authorities said were conflicting.

They declared their officers met an accidental death while the en tire schooner's company of six was battling to save the craft during a ter rlflo gale. Captain Brussla snd his brother, they said, went below deck to look after the cargo and were crushed to death when It ahlfted.
