A member of the crew of the rescue ship tells of hear ing two shots fired on the wreck, and Captain Sullivan told tho immigration officials he saw the body of a man, thought to be the captain, lying face downward acro"ss a hatch. The body is caid to have disappeared before the rescue of the seaman was accomplished. The four seamen in nil probability will have a hearing beforo Mr L'prter tomorrow after the British consul has completed his investigation. The seamen were examined at Gloucester today.

All of the men worked nf most continuously removing the heavy bags of salt and we finally discovered the two men crushed to death in tlig hold.

"We had been a week out" of Rotterdam, proceed ing along the northerly route for Philadelphia, with excellent weather, when pn the afternoon of October 8 , we ran Into a heavy blow. About 10 :4" that nhjht the second officer, Robert F. Fremont, noticed a light and flare off the starboard bow." At first I thought it a lifeboat, which I knew would be In great danger.
