of definite news here to-day In regard to the terTl-
BILE accident which befell the Narragansett Friday

for it indicates, 1t is claimed, that only few were
lost Others however, do not share in this belief.
No record was kept of the Narraransetts passen-

ton and they went TO Boston, Providence and
towns in this vicinity on several different trains
through the day. 1t is claimed that eighty we're
landed aud went to their homes or to friends. Mr'
Ward seems to have no exact information as to the
number of survivors who were taken to Newly ork
on the CITY of New-YOrk. Accounts differ as to
how many Passengers were on the Narragansett
MI Ward has no means, he says OF estimating the
number. When the StOnington arrived here many
of the passengers were 80 excited that
they did not know where they hved'
Soma of the women were wrapped in
blankets and not until the early train had taken
off load did it occur to Mr.. Ward to get list OF
those who had been rescued Every one thought
of helplnc the sufferers When the second train
had started Mr. Ward telegraphcd to Kingston to
have full list of the passengers taken. and these
were the forty or moro whose names were sent to
TIE TRIBUNE last evening. A dozen or so took the
train for New-London, and twO-Mrs l.. Parks and
her daughter Mrs. K. FISh--went TO Mystic, Conn
Another train took more to Providence They were
greatly excited aud Frustrated.
On the Monday night trip TO New-YOrk the steam
ers sometimes carry over 500 passengers each and
several of the passengers with whom your cor
respondent talked yesterday said that they thought
there were at least between $50 and 400 on board.

sence of any knowledge to tho contrary. it is be-
