 NEW YORK, Nov. @ One man killed and l nVe injured is the record of the trin of the Cunarder Etruria, which arrived at her dock ias1 evening, after a voyage of q little over seven days of terrible weather during all of which the passengers remained in the cabins
 oaoIy frightened and suffering great dis comfort. It was one of the toughest ex- perlences that the Etruria's officers have ever known The passengers express some dlspleasure over the fact that the speed of the vessel was never slackened, and the time made was nearly up to the racing standard.
 The officers, on the other hand, say that this complaint is unreasonable, as the rate of speed has nothing to do with the comfort or safety of those on board during gales and heavy sea.
 on Tuesday afternoon a heavier wave Inan any yet encountered was seen approach Ing. The seamen uttered cries of warning ana attempted to seek places of safety; but when the mountain of water fell with a crash upon the vessel the men were swept in heap against one of the deck houses. When the water receded it was found that George Nornald, an able seaman, of Liverpool was fatally crushed and bruised He died soon alterward. Seamen Murphy and Moett and two others, names not learned, and a steer age passenger named Colt were cut. bruised and lamed. All were cared for by the ship's physician
 The officers of the vessel are reticent, and the attempts of the reporters to obtain par tlculars or the trip were met with some exhi- bltions of ill temper

 An eye witness, who saw the fatal sea come aboard, said: ''The wave was a big comoer, and came rushing on like race morse toward our port side. There seemed to 1 De confused cross sea, for the ship was, of 1 course not in the trough of it, although this wave came abeam. There were a number of the watch making something fast just aft the forward turtle back on the port side, and the pig wave, towering above the vessel, came aboard just at that point, It seemed as Ii there had'been several tons weight sud denly emptied upon them Wornald was swept aft with the water, and dashed against the pumps with terrific force It seemed a miracle that he was not at once washed over board as the water receded from the deck, put some ot the crew saw he was badly in Jured, lay hold of him and carried him be- low. Wornald was so badly crushed that he died i'll twenty hours after his injury, losing consciousness for the last time on the follow Ing morning. He was buried at sea the same day"
