OVER 10 LIVES LOST ON TIE NOlAGI

OVER 10 LIVES LOST ON THE NOl AGE
FEuM uI EBEC To LIVERPOOL.
The steamer Nick>hulg. which sailed
from Quebec for Livelpo"l. MAY -.
with nearly 90 persons un board. WAS
wrecked in Il field of ice. when five days
ont. and over 10 OF tho>,. ON board. in
Guiding the captain. were drowned.
while the fate of the rest. who got OF
in boats. is uncertain. except five, who
were picked up 10y Il passing steamer
and brought to New York. after they
had been ailoat for some days and had
suffered intensely from exposure.
The Nickshurg belonged to the Do
minion line and WAS commanded bv
Capt. Bennett. The crew consisted of
90 men. and there were five men and
three women. saloon passengers. aud
about ~ in the Stcclage, of whom four
We're females. On Sunday evening.
the Both. the vessel WAS surrounded by
Il field of ice and stopped till daylight.
and. next day. she was 50 badly used
10y the ice that the crew began throw
ing over the cargo. On Tuesday morn
ing. the ship being I2o miles northwest
of st. Johns. orders were given to man
the boats, the fires in the engine room
being drowned out. The five VIII"
were saved put off in IL launch with
nautical instruments and provisions, but
were soon capSized and lost Il large
part of all that WAS useful on board.
These men saw the second officer and
nine men get off in Il boat. but shortly
after, at about 10 o'clock i'll the fore
noon. the ship went down, the chief
Officer and about 30 people barely es
Gaping from her in Il boat. as she sank.
The captain and another person We're
subsequently seen floating on Il bale of
hay, but it was impossible To save them.
The five kept their boats near the other
boats for Il time, bur finally lost sight
of them, and no tidings of their fate
have been received. The five stood
southwark. having in the boat about
three gallons of water. 10 pounds of
raw beef, II pounds of bread, wet with
salt water, and Il compass. They float
ed about till Friday forenoon. three
days. when they We're picked mp by the
steamer State of Georgia. They were
very much exhausted when found. and
their feet and legs were so much swollen
that their boots had to be cut from their
feet.
Their opinion is that over 10 people
were lost, and this may hc so. even
surprising that the other two boat-loads
were saved. They SAW none of the
women in either of the boats, and it is
fair to suppose that all We're drowned.

land coast. are still very indefinite. but
all agree that the loss of life. though
not involving all on board except the
five at first reported saved, was very
great Nine more of the crew and
three passengers have been picked up
and taken to St. Johns, n. F., by an
American fisherman. Their names are
as follows: Crew-Parker Greenwood,
james Callahan, John Ryan, John Cur
tain. John Redmon and Martin Lee !;
passengers Joseph Penningham, Bry-
an McShand and Richard Corbett. The
gunboat Swallow has gone to the scene
of the wreck in search of others.
The Nicksburg was an iron steamer
of $500 tons burden, built in Scotland,
and considered the best ship of the
Dominion line, while her officers were
regarded as very efficient. All who
were saved agree that, while perhaps it
was unwiSe to attempt passage
through the fields of ice which it was
evident lay in the tack of the ship and
which other vessels carefully avoided,
the conduct of the officers during the
danger was admirable. The vessel
struck an iceberg on her quarter ut II
o'clock on the night of the :}lst, and IN
attempt was then made to reach ST.
Johns. but the vessel WAS soon disabled
10y the breaking of the fan. Those
who have just arrived at st. Johns say
shat five boats were launched at ) on
the morning of the LIST, and the vessel
went down about two hours aftcrward,
hearing with her the captain and sev-
eral women. The mates boat. said to
have contained about 30 men, went
down soon after leaving the ship. The
rescued ones think that the chances for
saving those on the boats not Yet from
are very small.

Ocean Disasters, and their Remedy.

The >hivrr "i horror which IAN
through the community on learning of
the loss of the schiller and her many
Victims, had not died away. when news
comes of the loss OF another steamer.
The "NickSburg" of the Dominion line.
left Quebec for Liverpool, on the eth
of Nav. ran into ice fields soon after
leaving the mouth of the St Lawrence
river. and was 50 injured that she filled
with water and sank on the morning of
June LIST. Many of the passengers went
down with the boat. including the Cap
tain and all the women on board.

dispensations of Providence. We will
