Shanghai Steamer Trapped in Ice Floe.
FOR FIVE MONTHS.
While Shanghai has been great- occupied with Sino-Japan affairs, |an experience full of hardships and trials has been the lot of those on board the Dashing, owned by Messrs. An Tung Steamship Com- pany of Shanghai, says the N. C. D. News.
This vessel; under the command of Captain O, Bertin, has been on time charter to the Soviets who were using her in the Kamchatka trade. About November 2, 1981, she had just returned to Vladivo-| stock from & trying five months' trip up the Coast of West Kamchatka to the far north, and to-Lopatka Foint on the extreme south end of Kamchatka.
As customary, the ship was due to return to Shanghai for the Win- ter months, and should have sailed from Vladivostock homeward bound about November 5. On that day, however, the Dashing was instruct- jed to proceed to the Alan and Chantarey Islands. It was at Álan on November 22, that the ship was caught in the ice and all aboard were faced with the grim ordeal of a Winter in that frozen north.
No Food Or Coal.
.
A month later an icebreaker ar- rived at Alan for the purpose
of accompanying the distressed vesiel to Nagaeva where another ship would arrive later with bunker coals from Vladivostock. Alone and a prisoner in the ice at Nagaeva the Dashing remained until at last on February 11, 1982, the bunkering steamer arrived-but short of bunkers itself. On that day, from the Captain of the unfortunate vess, a radio message was received Consignees of Cargo are hereby in- which in a few terse words told formed that all Goods are being land. the story of a desperate situation— ed at their risk into the Godowns of "Am blocked in ice Kamchatka the Holt's Wharf, at Kowloon, whence until end of Winter. ... no food." and/or from the may be obtained.
