The whole accident occurred so quickly that it was impossible to get the boats out. There was the greatest confusion on deck where passengers and crew were mak- ing wild endeavors to save them- many of them in the ter- rible excitement of the moment taking measures of precaution that were of no use. One woman, for instance, sisted on being placed on a life- boat on the deck, although she was told it would be in vain. Her appeals were so frantic, as she stood breast deep in the water, selves; Ine that she prevailed on Mr. Shaw and another man to lift her up and place her in the lifeboat. they She But this action proved, as had warned her, of no avail. sank with the ship and did not rise again to the surface. Further confusion was to the scene on decks by thi ing of the steel these came crashing added to the danger of those terrible moments and were the cause of injuries to a number of the passengers. Mr. Shaw heard nothing, however, of the explo- sion which some spoke of. Awful as was the situation of those on deck, the fate of those below is too fearful to be imag- ined. Unable to escape in time from their berths, they must have been caught by the waters which poured in through the hole in the side of the ship and drowned in their staterooms or in the saloon. They went to their deaths im- prisoned in the dark womb of the shattered and sinking leviathan, their cries unheard and soon stil- led by the merciless cold black waters that surged in upon them steadily, rapidly, almost silently. added Fn i baie masts.

When the vessel plunged to the bottom many of were drawn down with her, not all regained the ‘surface With those who did it was largely a matter of luck whether not they were saved, although the many pieces of wreckage floating about made it no very difficult matter to reach the shore. Captain McCann stayed with the vessel to the last but had the good fortune to be floated off in the pilot house. Thurmont Brown reached shore on a crate of cabbages, while D. R. O'Neill made his escape on a lifebuoy. deck and those on or Mr. Shaw himself ,like many of, the others, was sucked down by the sinking vessel. What hap, pened while he was below the water he does not clearly remem- ber. For a time, he thinks, he must have lost consciousness entirely. He recollects having made an attempt to go hand over hand along a rope to the surface, although he was not sure whether he was going up or down. He at at one time, too, had hold of a fine wire, whieh must have been “live,” as he found on his hands later the marks of the burning. When he at last reached the sur- face, after what must have seemed an age under water, he, like many of the others, reached shore by aid of a lifebelt. Many of those who were float- ing on pieces of wreckage buoyed up by lifebelts or making their struggles unassisted were rescued by the boats which the cannery workers’ had promptly dispatched to the aid of those on the sinking steamship. Many of the passengers were inclined to place the number of those lost much higher than did the company, and thought sixty would be a closer estimate than thirty-two. or PRINCE RUPERT COAL Railway Spur to Be Built to the Morice Coal Fields.

Italian scien- tists and hydrographers are ag- ain puzzled by the sudden disap- pearance of the waters of Lake Canterno, far from Rome. The whole population of the dis- trict is in mortal fear of some imminent catastrophe. The lake has been playing hide and seek with the villagers from time immemorial. Records show that every 20 years the waters recede through the large hole in the middle of the lake bed. Fish disappear and return with the water, According to a local the water disappears every an accident happens in the borhood of the lake.
