VESSELS IN DISTRESS.
STEAMER BEACHED. (British Official Wireless.) Received September 20, 1 p.m. RUGBY, Sept. 19. Lifeboats from Margate, Deal and Clacton put out to-day to help two vessels in distress. The London coasting steamer Treport, of 280 tons, struck submerged wreckage and was thereupon beached on Girdler Sands, 20 miles off Margate, and the crew were taken off. The Deal boat also stood by a brig which nearly capsized in heavy seas running in the Channel.
