T From the Chicago Commercial Advertiser.
We learn from gentleman james
kinzic, Esq. OF this ely, who has just ascen'
ded the Illinois river, that most mean.
choly occurrence took place ON Saturday
the 18th inst, about five miles from its
mouth, where. through the obstInacy Of the
captains OF two steam boats, one of their
boats was sunk, and the lives OF all the deck
passengers, amounting to more than twenty
lost, anh the freight and baggage entirely
DESTROYED.
The captain of the Wisconsin, which was
then ascending the river, had repeatedly
stated, that if he should meet the TiSkilway
and her captain would not give him clear
channel, he should run her down. This, ii
seemed, provoked the captain Of the other
boat, and he became as obstlnately deter.
mined no, to turn out of his course. Both
boats met about o'clock in The morning,
at q time when all the passengers were il
bed and stecrcd directly for each other till
within only few rods, when the cap'ain OF
he Tiskilwa cndeavored, but too late to
avoid the conclusion, and turning a little
out Of he course thus gave fair broadsIde
to the ascending boat, which took her just
behind the wheel, and she sunk IN less than
three m!nucs aiicr she was struck. The
iirs, notice Of their extreme danger, which
the cabin passengers received, was the
screams of1hose below, who were drown
ing, and without even time TO put on theil
clothes; they merely escaped by jumping
through the windows of the cabin, which
fortunately for them, had been completely
separated from the sinking boat by the
shock.
Mr.. vnd Mrs. Garret and Mr.. and Mrs.
Pomcroy, Of this city, were among the cab.
in passengers, and were saved.
The captain Of the Wisconsin is statco
70 have acted, even to the ladies, in mos
brutal manner, havingput them ashore bare
! footed, at more than a mile and half from,
any habtataton, and with nothing but thci
night clothes on. Report says that the
men were even worse treated, as he endea
vored to prevent their getting on board the
! Wisconsin at all.
A large sum Of money belonging to on'
Of the ladies named, had been recoved sub
sequcntlv, from the ladies' cabin and ont
+ gentleman was fortunate enough TO find Iii
coat floating on the river, with his money
amounting 10 about $1,000, in the pocket.
