FATHER POINT, May THE steam
ship Titania, from Glasgow, passed in
ward this morning. She had on board
twenty -four of the crew of the steamship
State of Florida, that vessel having
been sunk by collision with bark in
mid. ocean. Out of 1877 persons on the
State of Florida only forty-four were
saved and of the bark's crew only the
captain and two men were rescued.
One hundred and twenty-three souls
went down with the steamer and twelve
with the bark, making g total loss OF 1876.
The survivors Will probably be landed
at Quebec.
ToRoNTo, 4.30 q, m.-Adviees from
Father Point say the Titania having
gone TO Quebec with no delay will prob
ably reach that city at 8 O'Clock tonight if
the conditions continue favorable. 1t
will be impossible to get q statement
regarding the circumstances under which
the collision and disaster occurred or to
learn the names of the survivors until
then.
The Titanic remained here SO short
time that only brief particulars were
obtained. Twenty other Of the supposed
survivors who were In aD-
up by some other vessel. The barque's
name Is unknown by any of those on the
Titania. The TitRnia will arrive at
Quebec about O'Clock tonight, but
only exchanges pilots there and pro-
ceeds to Montreal. It Is probable the
survivors Will be sent ashore st Quebec
with the pilot boat and put in charge OF
the proper authorities.
