SHIPPING DISASTERS.
tfy Electric! Telejn-*r'h -Popvrigbt LONDON, Dec. 31. The rescue of the survivor of a vessel wrecked on the Goodwin Sands apparently solves a Christmas night mystery. The survivor, an engineer of the Great Clive, states that the vessel stranded on the Sands in terrible weather. He entered a small boat with the captain, but remembers little, owing to his sufferings. » He does not know the fate of the captain or the remainder of the crew of thirty-two. ST. JOHNS, Dec.- 30.
Three men were rescued; half dead, from the Dutch steamer Anton Van Driel, which was wrecked at Cape Race. These were the only survivors out of 29 persons on the vessel.
