THE DRINK TRAFFIC

■.'.. - TO THE EDITOR. Sir, — As some friends were returning home from a meeting m Ashburton last night about eleven, they descried a man m a very f^ngejroua position on the crown of the Main. South Road He was lying face down between the wheel tracks drunk, with his clothes soaking wet. He was raised up, and as he was able to walk I led him some distance to a place of shelter for the night. As I ret urned homewards, I thought if the same amount of Bickness and mortality occurred among sheep

even m a few districts as does among men . (from a preventlble cause) from Auckland to the Bluff, it would receive a great deal of attention m certain quarters where the drink traffic is upheld. And how' much is ji man better cha,!i a. sheep ! I am etc;, • ' . . , • . Z.

Wreck of the Halcione.

Wellington, January 9 The barque Balcionp, Captain Boorraan, from London to Wellington, ran ashore at Wellington Heads, near the lighthouse, Lite last night. The vessel is m a critical position, but the crew are safe. Latbk. At; three o'clt ck this morning news was received that the barque Halcione was ashore at the Heads. The vessel made Pericarrow light ab">uh 8 SO las- night. The wind which had b en from the north then changed to the sowift, blowing hard with flashes of lightning and rain falling. The barque whs close to the land on the eastern side near the lighthouse, and shortly after war da was struck by a squall and ran on the rocks ia a dangerous position. There was a heavy swell running, and Captain Booruian ordered the boats to be cut away. One boat was launched with considerable difficulty and manned hy Mr Joynt, chief officer, and a crew of five. They cams on to Welling ton afder an arduous pull m a heavy sea, reaching towu drenched, . and requested assistance for the disabled vessel. The Mana was despatched as Boon as possible, having on board Captain Benhall, secre tary to the Underwriters' Association. The Halcione is full of water, and is expected to become a total wreck. Her cargo oonsists of general merchandise. She was ninety days out. The Haloione struck the rocks m Filzroy Bay, and from there the lighthouse was nob visible. Captain Boorman Is m command, Mr Joynfc, of Chriatchurch, chief officer, Mr Palmer second mate, Mr Wheeler third mate, and there are fourteen of a crew all of whom landed safely. A heavy southerly swell is still running. The officers and crew lost almost everything. Tho Mana returned from the wreck this morning. She was unable to get within a couple of cables' length of the Halcione, which Captain Kendall declares is a hopeless wreck, being full of water and with seas breaking over her. The vessel is standing upright with her sails Btill set, the crew having had no time to furl them. The Halcione came through Cook Straits with a fresh northerly wind and was standing off two or three miles from and a little to eastward of the entrance to the harbor when suddenly the wind swept round to the south, beginning to blow hard, and at the same time there canoe on thick weather. The captain wore ship for the purpose of standing for the harbor, but In t-ome manner as yet un explaimdgot into Fitzroy Bay lying to the eastward of Pencarrow Head, and struck one of three rocky points at the head of the bay at JO 30 p.m., and there the ship lies surrounded by rocks. The sea had not made to any extent when the first boat which s^me to town was launched, but rapidly increased, and the occupants were anxious for the captain and others left on board as landing at the scene of the wreck is dangerous. How ever, the second boat was launched successfully, but on nearing shore was smashed against the rocks. The occu pants were thrown out,, bat all man«p<\£ to scramble ashcJvsa lijaifciy; fney then walked about four miles to a small bay on the harbor side of Pencarrow light house where they were picked up by the Mana and brought to Wellington. The Halcione has 722 tons cargo (including 1700 packages gunpowder and 500 barrels cement for Wellington and fifteen tons for transhipment. It is too early to decide what cargo oan be saved, but nothing can be done while the present sea Is running, If it moderates another visit will be made to the wreck to morrow, Theorew sivtd only what they stood up m. Toe Ha'cinno la 877 tons register, was built m 1869, and is owned by the Shaw SavilJe Company .Nothing is known as to the insurance as yet.
