Tha&nrxitaRofllioShip "Milton. ' 9. P. Chronicle. The Btoninor Nowburn arrived lasl week , having on board Captain Mc < Arthur of tltlt British ship Milton , his wife , ( heir two children , the carpenter tor and n seaman. The Milton was i \vocdon ship , built in Nova Scotia owned in England , loaded with coalt from Newcastle and bound to this port under ehnrlor for wheat On the 22nd of Inst December the cargo was discovered to bo ou fire , and find * ing it impossible to extinguish the flumes , the ship wna abandoned , in latitude 3 degrees north and longitude 110 west , which ia duo west of the United States of Columbia and some thine over 1200 miles south of Cnp St. Lucas , Lower California , the nearest land. A TI1IIILLIKO The story of suffering and peril ' 'which UK-BO people relate is not sut * passed in interest by anything in the terrible ruinnls of shipurcck. ltt ri vals in remarkable incidents and 'tho fortitude nnd devotion of the womnn Ohnrlcn Reido's thrilling story ol shipwreck in the Smith Pacific. The story of the loss of the Milton has al ready been told in a sailor's way _ by the survivors previously brought into port. JJpon the arrival of the Newborn Captain ilcArthuriuul his family took a carrmgo and drove to the , Devon House , on Market street , Which is a resort for Boa captains and whore rooms had btfon engaged for them. A reporter of The Chronicle called there soon1 after their arrival , and was shown to their rooms. The Captain had gene down town to telegraph to the relatives of himself and wife in the cast the news of their safely. His wife , n matronly looking lady , witli n little rosy-cheeked , blue-eyed chubby boy in n sailor suit at her knee , and three-pound baby on her lap , received the reporter. She is a pleasant , mild spoken woman , with light hair , gray eyes and cheeks on which the roses were struggling out through the tan of her exposure and the pallor of her terrible suffering and sickness , al though she was very weak and reduced in flesh. "You have had a terrible experi ence ? " said the reporter. "Yes , indeed"shereplied , "Ihope hutnin being may never have the like again. " Then in compliance with the request of the reporter she told the story of the , voyage and its turcs. THE ILL-FATED VOYAGE. "Wo lott Newcastle on the Oth of August , and , until the ship took fire , had as pleasant u voyage as ever I had and I've sailed in the Milton every trip the over made. I was on her when oho was launched two years and a half ago , at Maitland , Novia Scotia , at the head of the Bay of Fundy. That is my native place , aud my hud- band's , and my parents and little sev en-year-old daughter live there now. Ono week m Copenhagen , while I wus on shore , is the only , time I. ever lived out of her while slio was afloat. 1 had my pldeet child , a daughter aged 7 , and my oldest boy with the others ou board with me , but sent them homo a year ago hist fall , and the littio boy died a few weeks after getting ashore. Well , as I said , wo had a very pleasant voyage of it so far as weather was concerned. On Thursday , December 21st , I think it was. just after dinner , the mate came to the cabin , and said that the coals in the hold wcro on fire. Tno Captain was confined to his bed with rheuma tibia , and could scarcely move a fin- . gor. I dressed htm and he got up j and set , the inun to fighting the fire They worked all the uftomoon un until 3 o'clock the next morning , bu could no't control tho.fuu. " TI1K SHIP AHANDONED. "Tho Captain was afraid that th ship would explode with the fras fron the burning coal continued in tin hold , and as it was plain the slii ] could not bo caved , ho took to th three boats. Ho got out 'water pro visions and bedding , as much as IK cjuld to furnish the boats. They lay by the vessel until she burned to thi water , for she seemed company to us out thcro alone in the Pacific- . She was a fine ship , and wo loved her as our homo , and it seemed such n pity > to see her go to ruin right there before - fore our eyes. Wo oven lost sight of our own position in thinking of it for time. When she was gene wo squared away for Capo St. Lucas , BI 1280 miles away. The weather was t' ' warm and that saved UH from sufTering > jold when the wali-r drenched us tc iho akin , as it frequently did when the wind blev hard and the boat took , t rtater. We hndcanvna to blrotchover , the part of the boat wo slept in at 1 light , but I naed to beg the Captain o loivo it offBO that [ could look ut ho stars us 1 used to do , and wonder f I should over sco the folks nt homo ig. in. In the morning there would jo a great stcnm from the bottom of .ho bout , caused by the sun evaporat- ng the water that wo had shipped , ind this soon rotted the bed clothes somplotoly. The mate's boat wo lost light of on Christmas day , and the ither a few days later. Before the econd boat loft us wo took the second nato out of her into our boat. A HAIL IN WIGHT , "As the days were on our provlsons uid water got low and wo Buffered freatly from thirat. On the 10th of Fanutiry , when wo had been twenty- ive days in the boat , wo sighted a rOB8ol. Wo thought uho was coming or us. The crow wore exhausted for rant of water and could not pull auch. Wo wcro on daily allowance if a cupfull , and only throe gallons oft. The Captain , to encourage ho men to do their best , gave them 11 but one gallon when wo saw the hip tuck. Then wo thought the ves- el was coming for us , but BIO was neroly tacking. The next we saw of ) lor she was standing away from us. 'he Captain and all hand * stood up nd ehoutod till their voipes failed , nd wo waved signals , but the ship ere away from us , aud finally disap- eared. It was awful , and our water ms nearly all 'gone , Then it seemed trango , too , that it never rained. Vo had a little rain on the first-threo ays after taking to the boat , but none fterwards for a month and a half , Boomed as if a squall would come up and go all around us , but not a drop of lain touohnd us. luqjwM or THIHST. "After the disappointment with that vpr/sol wo had to depend for wat er ou what the Captain oould get by condensation , and our suH'ufihgs from thirst were terrible. The Captain made n condenser out of a tin can a d a piece of pipe. Wo had a chest that wo broke up for firewood , nnd took everything out of the boat that could b6 burnt without disabling her , and wo used to sit and watch and count the drops as the condensed water dripped into the tin. Ho could mnko but a little over n pint in twenty-four hours , nnd that had to do the whole of us. My tongue got thick and stuck out between my cracked lips nnd I seemed burning for water. I used to got a little relief by binding my head and throat with cloths dipped in the sea , but still the thirst kept rag ing worse and worse. It was madness itself. My little boys began to cry for water , and my two year old b.iby , Frnnkiolay moaning out of his pnrch- ed mouth , and'dicd in my lap of hun ger and thirst. It was too much , too much. As I lay in the bottom of the boat with the little sufferers , and heard the swish of the sea against the sides of the boat , the memory of every drink I had over enjoyed cimo back to tantalize mo. I don't believe that I ever took a drink of cool water from my cl'uldhood up to the moment of leaving the ship that each circum stance did not como bick to my mind distinctly. And to look at all that water around us , so blue nnd clear and cool \ylicn \\o dipped our hands in the sea , it seemed very strange that wo should bo dying of thirst. " TUB LAST MKAL. "Had you anything to bat ? " iiiquir cd Iho reporter. "Yes , wo did , " broke in the chub- by-faiod little boy , who was playing beside his mother on the sofa. "Wo had ham and the big flying fish. " "That was the last Iheal'wo had , " said the mother , smiling at the boy's earn stucBs. "Just before wo reach ed Cerrus island , where wo were pick ed up by a schooner , wo had'oaten up everything but Iho shreds loft on n ham , when a big flying firih leaped out of the water and fell into the boat , and wo ate him up greedily. Before that wo had eked out life on a scant allowance of canned meats. LAND AT LAST. "Wo had reached this .stage and the carpenter and one of the seamen hnd followed Prankio , when on the Gth of February , I think it was-wo reached a little barren island off the coast of Lower California , St. Roquo , I think. [ St. Hoquo is an island close to the main shore , 280 miles north of Magdalena bay. Wo were tearing down for a landing when wo saw n schooner making for the island. The Captain reported that ho saw a sail , and then wo lost sight of them and thought wo were tb bo disappoint ed again , and the Captain lowered the sail and wo were in despair , but thought wo would wait till morning and might then see her nnd attract her notice. About two hours later wo sighted her again * tacking in. The Captain hailed her , but they gave us no answer , although they came on un- Lil wo were about a boat's length from them. The men had actually not strength enough loft to pull the boat that remaining boats's lengthi They asked us in Spanish what wo were do ing there and the Captain told them wo were starving and dying for water , they hove a line to us and took us in , ow , but soon slacked the line and lot us drift away astern. " TAKEN FOll riTATES. "Then they took mo nnd the boy on ho boat , and judge of my consternn- , ion when they pulled off with us to ho schooner and loft the rest in the boat. The Captain of the schooner gave mo n little wine and T told him I wanted him to go back for my bus * band and the others ; but ho hesitated. I learned from what I overheard them saying in Spanish that they thought wo wore piratesand that there wcro moro of UB around the island , and they be- , 'ixn to got their knives ready for resis tance. But they wcro finally satisfied , ind took us all aboard and treated us foi-y kindly , supplying our wants , riiey were bound to Cerras island [ 85 niles up the coast from St. Roquo ] foi lomo material for dyeing which they ut there. They took us along , and vhen wo reached Cerras wo were for- unato enough to sight the steamer Newborn passing south. The Captain ullod us onb to her and hailed.
