 Collision with mn Iceberg-An Ocean
 Steamers Great Pertl-Tons of Ice
 Thrown to the Deck.
 MONTREAL, P. O., Sept. 6.-The steamer Harworth, with 2, 900 steel rails from Barrow in-Furness, John Anderson master, was in collision with huge iceberg in the Straits of Belle Isle, on Sunday night, the 29th ult., smashing hole in her bow some twenty feet in width, breaking her stem to atoms, and giving her an involuntary deck load of tons of ice, which toppled over upon her from the iceberg and threatened to sink her by sheer weight She careened so much that her stern was lifted high up out of the water and threatened to pitch her bow foremost into the depths. All was confusion in moment, as the collision was un- looked for, owing to the night being clear and starlit The watch had been mis- taken as to the iceberg They believed it to be part of the overhanging clouds, and when the crash came two of them were thrown into the water. Boats were lowered, manned and in readiness to leave the vessel. An examination showed that she would float and the crew set to work to repair damages John Randall, who had gone overheard, was never seen again. His companion in misfor- tune, after floating with the help of water barrel for half an hour, managed to make himself heard and was rescued. It took two days to repair the damage and to enable the vessel to proceed. She arrived here late Sat urday night, where she will at once discharge and repair damages. She was Clyde built and was classed Al at Lloyd's.
