One :Of the strangest mysteries In connec tion with the dstruction of vessels and men on tha Great Lakes by lost Sun day's storm was solved when William Baker, a diver, Identified the over turned vessel in Lake Huron, 13 miles northeast of this port, as the Charles S. Price of Cleveland. The Price, a steamer 604 feet long, has been lying In the Jake ever since the storm with only a few feet of the bottom of her ybow above water. She is said to have (carried a crew of 28. All of them Imust have been lost. .'. It is still thought that wrecking ot 'the Price and the Regina must have ioeen. m the same locality. The diver, however, found no evidence of any submerged vessel beside the Price. jThe opinion that the two steamers jwent down near each other is borne , out. by the fact that the body of one of the Price's men when found was (wrapped in a Regina lifebelt. The establishment of the identity !f the "mystery ship" makes it cer tain that the boats claimed by the Dig blow on Lake Huron were the John A. McQean, Charles S. Price, James S.
