The Ferry.Boat ExpIOslOn at st. LOuls.

The 81. Louis Republican of Friday, cath,
brings an account of catastrophe in that city, Of
which brief mention has previously been made In
a telegraphic dispatch to The Tribune:
Alta o'clock yesterday, the ferry boat St. Louis
while backing from the Spruce'st. landing
burst her larboard boiler completely shattering
the fore part of her cabin and deck, and killing
and drowning at least twenty persons,
The full extent of the melancholy disaster was
apparent just as the explosion occurred. Inn,
bers large masses Of machinery, brickwork ana
ashes were hurried aoft in every direction, with
many human beings. The conclusion was dis,
tincty felt at distance OF five or six squares ana
the spray from the boilers also was dashed very
far. The starbosrd boiler was thrown completely
out Of its place. and that it protrudes about one
fourth Of its length over the boats side IL was
crushed and cut through in many places.
The larboard boiler-that which exPloded-Wm
first blown up, tearing to atoms the greater Por'
ton of cabin, and sfterward falling upon the lor-
ward part Of the deck, iattened to such degree
that il could scarcely be recognized as having
formed boiler The engine machinery, portion
of the wheel. the masonry about the boilers, and
portion of the deck flooring, were shlyered ana
scattered about on all sides
There were several women on the deck, but we
have heard of only one who escaped. PERSONS
who stood on the levee at the time, and several
fishermen who were coastlng along the loot oi
sengers both male and female, were blown over
board
The liat we gathered includes the following
kIIed-Wm. w. Benson, lst Engineer Alex
Mexican, pilot Paul Trundey, I'd engineer son
Of Mr. Trundley, the agent; Sebastian Smith,
fireman John w. James, son OF Mrs. James,
corner Of Fifth and Almond SITS. the daughter OF
Mr. Louis Jarvis. aged about IS years Albert
Wells, Ernest Augustus Smith, Isaac Coop, Merl-
wether, s, Smith, boy; young man from the
interior OF Illinois, whose name we cosld not
ASCERTAIN; Dr. Truett, from Illinois, who had
about him some sl75, or more; an Irish boy,
named William, cattle driver for Mr.. Donahoe, at
Pepstown; and young man named Robert
Hareing or Hardin, whose body was near the
side walk, on the levee, distant about SIS yards.
The wounded are Godfrey, a son OF Mr. w.
w. Thompson, leg supposed to be broken; De.
metrius w ard, severely cut about the face and
arm; a woman name unknown; Teresa Roysn,
and Michael Gill. The two last named persons
are at the City Hospital. and were expected 10
die every hour last evening, when we called there
Demetrius Ward was acting captain Of the boat
and is, we believe, the only officer that happened
! 70 be present, who survives. Altogether, there
were about thirteen bodies, several of whom were
not identified Melancholy as it may be. our est
mate Of twenty, as the number OF lives lost is
| we believe, very moderate.
