The Captain romain- ed by her until Saturday evening, when, finding that tahe made so much wator; that it was hopeless to save her, he started for Shanglisi on one of the Pilot Schoonere, and was mot by the Titan off the Beacon the following morning, and came on to Shanghai in her to consult with his agents, the Borneo Company. No Pilot was on board at the time the accident, but one came on Friday night or Saturday morning. Previous to the catastrophe, it was blowing very severely, and every effort, such as 3 showing blue lights, u, was made to at- 49 tract any Pilot's attention, and the Captain also offered some jinks a reward if they O could take him to a Pilot. The Trian has O been chartered to save what she can from the wreck. When the Captain left there was 12 feet of water in the hold. A Court of enquiry was held at HB.M.
