COAST Selwyn Eddy Aground at Tar- paulin Cove Woods Hole, Mass.,, Feb. 4 (P— The steamer Selwyn Eddy, Boston for Norfolk, struck on a shoal at the west end of Tarpaulin cove late last night. 1t is feared she will be a total loss. Her bow was badly damaged and holes were made in her side, flood- ing the engine room. The coast guard patrol boat No. 282 went to her assistance and stood by during the remainder of the night. The patrol boat No. 134 went out at day- break, prepared to stand by and to take the crew off later. The Selwyn Eddy is ow Mystic Steamship comp: ton and has been en en Boston and Nor- folk. She registers 2.164 tons and was built at Wyandotte, N. 8. Captain G. C. Hanson, whose home is at 74 Marathon street, Ar- lington, is in command of the ves- gel and the crew numbers 28 men. The spot where the Selwyn Eddy struck is on the shore of Naushon tsland, a short distance east of place where the collier Anthony O'Boyle has been aground for sev- eral days. The Ed was forced high up on shore, and all compart- ments were reported flooded. The v grounded during a feavy southerly gale and rain squail Today the gale had shifted to the northwest. Because of the storm, salvage op- erations on the Anthony O'Bovle from which 400 tons of coal W taken yesterday in an effort to light- en her, were suspended last night. The crew of 25 men remained aboard. Wind and sea abated considerably during the forenoon and the crews of the two stranded steamers were con- sidered in no danger. Representa tives of the owners of the Selwyn Eddy sent word that they would come here later in the day.
