How many of the above are lost, it is impossible
at present to say but it is thought that the loss CT
life has been principally confined to the poor emil
grants, who, although life is, of course as precious
TO them to the wealthiest OF our citizens, Will
leave fewer amongst us to lament their untlmcly
deaths.
In addition to the above, there were on board
Mr. A. E. Doggett, of Chicago, Mr.. Walbrdge,
father of Mr.. Wells Walbridge of this city, and
Mr.. John w. Murphy, Express Agent, all of whom
were saved.
From MIR. IIoman, NJ. C. Railroad Office, we re-
ceive information that the following were the num-
bers of tickets issued from his Offices
Steeragc passengers, emigrants III

-s Aside from these, Mr.. Homan thinks there may
have been 125 persons on board, including the
crew, about $50, reducing the probable loss to
about 200. This, however, we fear is little under
the mark. The emigrantS were Norwegians, who
came through by Lake Ontario steamers from Que
bee, and about rs or so of them were left on the
dock the agent refusing them to go on board
They now mourn the loss of their friends. There
is reason to hope that many may yet be saved on
thelife preservers, with which the boat was well
furnished.
Immediately afte. the news reached this city, the
steamers Northern Indiana and Louisiana and pro-
peler Princeton offered their services TO go to the
wreck-the Louisiana, which was fired up, inme-
diately discharged her load for that purpose. The
Company's boat, Cleveland, however, arrived from
up the lake, and was instantly dispatched to the
scene of the calamity She saw nothing OF the
wreck on her down trip, owing to the prevailing
fog. .-. i
