         The vessel ashore at Grand Haven, reported by tele-
       gram as the Whiting, proves to be the W. J. Whaling,
       of Milwaukee, laden with salt. But one man, the cook,
       was drowned. At latest advises there was a prospect
       of her being rescued, though in a badly damaged con-
       dition.
