They afterwards bailed her out with life pre-
servers cut in two, and pulled to the Maurice,
having picked up two or three passengers be-
fore reaching the barque.
Altogether, there were sixty-seven souls
taken into the Maurice during the night.
A Norwegian barque came up with the
steamer the next morning. A boat from her
was observed going around the burning ship,
and they msy have picked up few persons,
but only very few. The Maurice had no
communication with her.
About seven o'clock the Maurice sailed for
Fayal to deposit the rescued passengers. At
about two O'Clock the same afternoon, she tell
in with the barque Lotus, Capt. Trefry, of
Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, from Liverpool for
Halifax. As l was anxious to get on British
territory. Capt. Trefry kindly gave me pas
sage He was also anxious to take all the
American citizens among the survivors, but
there was such rush of foreigners into the
boaas that only one load of eleven could be
got off, and even several of these were for
eigners.
The FIRE is known to have arisen from the
very culpable negligence of some of the crew.
The captain and surgeon considered it expe-
dent to fumgate the steerage with burning
tar, which operation was to be performed by
the boalswain under the superintendent of
the fourth officer The boatswain heated the
end of chain to dip in tar to produce smoke.
The end became too hot to hold, and he let it
drop upon the deck, to which it set fire. The
tar also upset, and Immediately all about was
in flames. feeble attempt was made to ex-
tinguish the fire, but it was without effect
There was nothing at hand to meet such an
emergency
The rescued passengers saved nothing but
the clothes on their backs, and even the great
er part of these were torn and otherwise lost.
Six hundred souls were supposed to be on
board, may of whom were women and chill
dren.'
