West Wind. Captain Charles A. Abbott, 60 daya out from Brisbane, N. S. W., arrived in New York harbor and tied up at the army base wharf, foot of Fifty-nint- h street, Brooklyn, listing to port and rusty from keelson to funnel cap. The ship's log tells a fascinating tale of adventure In the South Pacific. Her officers say she is lucky to be afloat. The West Wind steamed 1,000 miles with her bunkers afire, the record shows, drove within three strugcable lengths of the rocks after an gle, when her anchors dragged in a typhoon off Newcastle, N. S. W., flawed out of Brisbane harbor half an hour ahead of a quarantine proclamation for bubonic plague and had to shift cargo in to tinker her tall shaft. All this, to soy naught of being laid up two weeks for boiler repairs at Panama. An entry In the log dated August 1 records that the ship was joined that day at Pulpit Point, Sydney, by one Sinbad. An elaboration of this entry reveals that SlnWid Is a tabby tom cat, formerly ship's mascot and supercargo of the 8,500-to- n freighter, Canastota, also flying the U. S. & A. house flag, which mysteriously vanished with all hands between Sydney and Wellington the last week In June, The advent of this feline marine adventurer out of a vast and mysterious void enshrouding the fate of 50 men and officers who constituted the Cunastotas complement, appeared to have been considered an event of rare significance. The crew say he's the luckiest cat afloat. Hundreds of good seamen are ashore In world's ports because of hard times In the ocean carrying trade, but Sin-barover of the Seven Seas, can sign on any minute anywhere. All hes got to do Is walk aboard. Both the Canastota and West Wind piled between New Zeuland and New South Wales ports, carrying benzine for the Vacuum Oil company of New Jersey. The Canastota had 00,000 cases aboard when she left Sydney hound for Wellington to take on more enrgo. This vessel was spoken of up and down the Australian and New ZeaHer commander. land coasts as the bomb ship. Captain A. W. Lockle, a capable officer, was well known In New York, Montreal, Havre and up the Mersey. He ran the submarine blockade between Montreal and French ports through the war. The West Wind, probably In recognition of hazards Inseparable from the benzine carrying trade. Is referred to alongshore in Sydney, Newcastle, Wellington and Auckland as the coffin box. Her commander, Captain Abbott, balls from New York. His home Is at D9G Simpson street, the Bronx. Among officers and men of the West Wind few are without mementos, such as burns and bruises, of a terrific hurricane that kept the vessel steaming full speed ahead Into her anchor chains during a thirty-hou- r fight to prevent piling up on the Nobbles" off Stockton Bight, Newcastle, July 24. During that storm everything loose on deck went overside. When day dawned the West Wind was close enough to have tossed a biscuit ashore, with only three fathoms of water under her keel. The typhoon had blown Itself out. Since the Canastota signaled All clear off Sydney harbor that June afternoon, no trace of her has been found. What happened t r. the vessel will probably never be known. Australian sea lawyers hold that benzine from punctured containers leaked Into her bilge, mixed with the water there, forming an explosive gas and blew her sky high when a lantern was carried into the hold by an oiler at work on shaft bearing. It Is a sufficiently reasonable hypothesis, but that Is all. Whatever happened must have taken the ships company unawares, because, although equipped with modern wireless outfits, the Canastota sent no calls for aid. All any one reaNy knows Is that she vanished spurlos versenkt. Far out at sea the West Wind picked up wireless alarms sent out by Dalgettys, Australian shipping agents, and by Captain Williams, director of navigation at Sydney. Half a dozen times a day the radio chattered : Report Canastota," vary ing this later to Report Canastota wreckage. The West Wind laid off her course and swung wide, vainly seeking the missing vessel. Her disappearance constitutes nnother deep sea mystery, Inscrutable. as that surrounding the late of the United Stated naval supply ship Cyclops. The West Wind headed for Newcastle. It was three days later that Sinbad, the CanRS tota' mascot, bounded up the gangplank at Iulplt Point. WlUium Ilodgson, nble seaman of the West Wind, spotted the old cat, having served shipmates with him aboard the Canastota, when she was known as The fulls of Orkney and sniied out ofa British port. Hodgson instantly recognized SiubadVcinder-scarrebody. The cut's advent was followed by serious discussions above und below decks. Plain Why bad Sinbad quit the Canastota? HE 9,000-to- n States-Au-Btral- sure of your backing In a sUnatlon like that Tha wireless Is a fine thing to 1we, too, but It adds to the responsibilities of the man on the bridge. For Instance, here are a few messages. Pausing, Captain Abbott dug a sheaf of papera out of his dispatch box. and handed over a batch of wireless messages jacked np at the height ot the storm. "Abbott, West Wind Are yon standing by ship firing rockets? Aniwer forthwith, request Rear , PARKES. Admiral Australian navy. "Parkes is agent of the U. S. & A. line In Sydney, He was busy with the wireless that night' , Heres another: " Abbott, Wes Wind : Radio at hand. Cannot get tugs to yo'i. Dalgetty, Newcastle, In com- all-nig- ht Unromantic Age. "Remember when you used to whisper sweet nothings In your girls ear? Yes; she couldnt hear them now for her ear puffs; It takes the toot of a waiting automobile to attract Boston a girls attention nowadays. A blush also Is not beautiful cause It overdoes It. - A mld-PacIf- d, - d enough to any sallorman with insight such as most sailors have Into the ways of ships cats. Hodgson, present custodian of Sinbad, Insists cats and sailors have much In common. A cats Instinct and a sailors hunch are the same thing, he declares, only the cat can go ashore at any iort when dissatisfied and await another ship, while a seaman has to consider pay losses and other trifles like that which dont bother cats, and so he sticks to a craft hed like to leave, against his better Sinbad left the Canastota because Judgment. warned by Instinct of the ships Impending fate, and went ashore at Sydney to await a homeward bound vessel so the black gang of the West Wind has it. One hundred and fifty miles off the Nobbles at Newcastle, the Nobbles being headlands, Captain Abbott ran Into bad weather, beginning with Intermittent squalls from the southeast, Increasing to a gale as the harbor was neared, and at last assuming cyclonic violence. The West Wind being in light trim was on her beam ends half the time. There was a seventy-mil- e gale blowing when we arrived off Newcastle, the afternoon of July 24, narrated the West Winds big bronzed skipI had wireless orders to keep off, so we per. went aboi just before dark and tried to beat out to sea, but thats where our worst trouble was. We hadnt enough power to make headways against such a blow. The West Wind was a turbine boat during the war. Later they converted her Into a coal burner. The boiler capacity wasnt Increased enough to properly supply her main engines, so the best to be bad out of her In fair weather was a matter of six knots. We headed Into that storm with every pound of steam we could raise, but our screw .was out of water most of the time and the engines racing. The vessel wouldnt obey her helm and was being slammed about like an empty barrel in the nastiest sea I ever saw. We were crabbing It for the rocks nt a lively clip, so at 4:30 p. ra. I ordered both hooks away. The anchors held for a time, but about dark both began dragging, and we were off again for the boneyard. From that time on it was a ding-don- g fight, steaming full speed Into our anchor chains and losing way gradually, Rplte of all we could do. One minute she was burying her bows and slinging her stern In the air and the next shed tie stnndlng on her tall with the bow pointing skyward. We werent alone In our troubles. The Kalapol out of New Zealand and the Chronos from Adelaide for Sydney were the only ships to make port. Half a dozen other crafts were ordered to sea like ourselves. The Century, plying between Melbourne and Ocean Island was to leeward of us, firing rockets every minute or so and exercising her signal gun. She seemed to be making heavy weather of It. munication with navigation department seeking aid. Know yon will do all Dosslble to hang on. Good luck. PARKES. "Also the executive officer of the Australian destroyer squadron wanted specific Information, as witness: . Abbott, West Wind: Are you In need of assistance Destroyer? Can boots live In prevailing sea? Are your anchors holding? Send your position. EXECUTIVE FLEET, These are merely the offlciul messages. Others from ships In our area asking us to stand by when we were driving ashore at top speed and all wanting to know whether our anchors were holdned well werent, added some ing, which they d thing to the tang of life on the West Wind's brldga that night. "About midnight there was a lull, and I thought the worst was over, but in those cyclonic storms the hardest blow is toward the end. Half an hour later It was worse thun ever, and eveiyhlng on deck that could be Jarred loose went away. "Above the roar of the wind, the screaming of the screw when she lifted her stern 20 feet out of water, and slamming of big seas on her counter, we could hear the surf crashing on those perpendicular rocks. That was notice enough we were too darned close for any good use. "Under. such conditions one doesn't relish carrying on a radio conversation with every shore official who feels like asking a few questions. What interested me just then was how we could save the ship and our own lives rather than in answering questions such as Are you standing by? We were standing wherever we could get bold and that was mighty precarious. "For about an hour I thought we might turn turtle any minute. You see, we hadn't cargo enough aboard to hold her down and she was bouncing like a rubber ball. I had pumps rigged forward and began shooting oil over the bows. That had much to do with our coming through safe. It kept the seas from breaking aboard and gave us a chance to get about on deck. We were lucky to have the oil. "When dawn broke the storm died. We were close on the rocks. With the wind moderating we sneaked up on our anchors, got em both aboard and crawled In over the bnr. It was certainly a treat to feel a level deck under our feet again. We took on cargo and made for Sydney. That's where Sinbad came aboard acting as Important as though he owned the boot Our last call was at Brisbane;, where we finished loading and started for home. We Just missed a bubonic plague quarantine order nt Brisbane. If wed been an hour la tor the West Wind would have been g there yet. From the minute we left Brisbane our troubles were over. We made better time than any on the outward voyage, although we were only togging six to seven knots, but Its steady as does It and so long as she kept plugging along I was We hove to for on hour off Pitcairn Island and the traders tried to swap two monkeys for Sinbad. I've beard a lot about these Pitcairn Islanders descended from the mutineers of the Bounty.

She came through all right scramble. I understand there after an were mighty sick folks aboard her when she finally made port. Other ships that had dose calls were the Armagh and Port Nicholson. The Murumba, out of Newcastle for Sydney, went by us blowing her fires out of the funnels under forced draught. She made port safely, too. Ours was the worst plight of ail because of short boiler capacity. On top of that I had five hundred tons of ooul piled on deck when the storm broke, having been compelled to clean out the port bunkers because of fire. Fire In your bunkers with benzine stowed all around isnt what you'd call a comfortable combination. Well, I didn't have to worry long over that coal on deck, because every time we shipped a green one, and we were shipping most of the South Pacific about that time, between 25 and 50 tons went over the lee rail or out the scuppers. By daylight our main deck was swept clean. One important thing that lielppd pull .the West Wlnifl through wus a good crew.
