Captain And Crew Rescued U.S. Cutter.

London, July 8. Boston. Having abandoned all hope, after manning the pumps continually for 18 hours, the cap- tain and crew of the British three- mastered schooner Victory Chimes were rescued at the very last mo- ment by a United States cutter.

The Victory Chimes salled from Nova Scotia for Boston with a carge of timber, and she develop- ed a leak. The pump broke down beyond repair and the crew had to use the hand pumps, with the water steadily gaining in the hold.

The vessel's plight was serious, but it became desperate when the schooner ran into a dense fog, which prevented her from sending out distress signals. Her rafla were awash when the fog sudden-i ly cleared and the cutter sighted her and dashed to the rescue.
