Nov. fifteen Bolinas, Cal, and 24.—Forty-three survivors dead from the wrecked Hanalei which went ashore vesterday on Dux- | hury Reef near here had heen ac counted for at 10 a. m. today. Of these thirty were towed ashore by life lines or struggled through the smother of surf by their own strength and thirteen were carried aboard the revenue cutter McCulloch. The fif- teen dead also were the McCul- loch. As the vessel had sixty-two persons aboard, all told, the list of dead and living left but four unaccounted for. Three Variously Reported. These figures did not wver, five men of the Saving crew, San Francisco, who were swamped last night. Two of these were known to have come safe ashor but the remaining three were various- Iy reported as aboard the McCulloch and among those cast adrift when the Hanalei broke up. They could not be counted with any certainty among either the dead or the liv- ing. ) The Hanalei broke up early today after pounding on the reef nearly 24 hours.

After all hope had heen given up ashore and on board the wreck, the sixth line fired by the Gid- den Gate Park lifc saving crew under Captain Norman Nelson went over the vessel. A breeches buoy was rigged, i and then the line parted. Almost im- | mediately thereafter the Hanalei breke apart amid cries which rose { above the thunder of the surf. Efforts to take off the passengers and crew from shore began late yes- terday after a dozen vessels had tried }to reach her and were prevented by | fog ana surt. Lines Feéll Short. The Fort Point Life Saving crew from the beach fired lines which fell short, until in desperation they dou-| ble-charged their mortar and it burst. An effort to launch a boat from the Hanalei failed and a passenger was |drowned. A sailor tried to swim jashore with a line, and men on the {heach could see his arm swing above the waves: but at the line of breakers he sank and his body drifted out te sea. A passenger, Elwood | Schwerin of Berkeley, Cal., took a line and got ashore, but the line became unfastened as he swam.

Those on hoard kept up ‘their courage to the last. and it was not until the hull parted across the rocks, where she had balanced since yesterday morning that they leaped into the wa- | (HIGHLAND GOUNTRY ter and fought toward the signal tires which burned on the heach. A large portion of the hull, with a spar protruding from it, wallowed toward shore on the combers, and to it many human beings clung desper- ately. Searchlight Rigged Up. A searchlight had been rigged up on top of a bluff and by its rays swimmers were aided in avoiding the heavy timbers adrift and in heading toward shore. When the hulk was within feet of shore it struck a :ub- merged rock and heeled over. Al those who had been hanging to the spar or the bits of rigging were washed off. A few still clung to the as it was wrenched free from the rock and continued to drift shoreward. Finally a ‘vave threw it so high upon the sand that ife savers were able to assist the few hdlf drowned men. Picks Up Survivors, The revenue cutter McCulloch, which had been standing by the Hana- lei since vesterday sent a wireless message saying she had picked up a boat load of survivors from the wrecked steamer. Captain Alger of the McCulloch asked that the revenue cutter Golden Gate be sent with doc- tors, nurses and emergency hospital cauipment as the survivors were in a bad way. UNION SOCE\L.
