E Naturally supposing this information was correct he stoszed accordingly, with the result that at about 9 o'clock, on Wednesday night he knocked the foremast out of the wreck. Fortunately no damage was done to hit ship, but if a deep draft recol had been in the same position as the Bealed, it is probable timt, the bottom would have been torn out of the ship, as she would have struck the wreck itself instead of the mast, The Information supplied in Hongkong is Yory mileading.
