THEREAFTER—SILENCE.
Wednesday. Search for tho liner Cobequid disclosed nothing definite.
There was a crew of one hundred and two on board, and fifteen secondclass and fivo first-class passengers. Their fate is unknown.
A hurricano was raging, and this makes it extremely improbable that they escaped.
Capo Sable heard a wireless call announcing that tho vessel had struck a ledge off Briar Island, and that the en-gine-room was flooded. Thereafter, there was silence.
Tho Kron Prinzession Cecile was warned of the Cobequid's plight.
