HOW THE GOOD NEWS WAS RECEIVED.
ANXIETY AND SUSPENSE RELaEvEp-A DBscRIP


TroN OF THE VESSEL.
The good nuws of the safety Of the people on
the Danmarl first reached this city in the form Of
q cable dispatch from Copenhagen, which was re-
ceived shortly after noon by Paul Gotthei, at his
home, No. $50 West Ninety-seventh-st. Mr.
Gottheil is a member OF the firm Of Funch, Edge &
Co. the agents of the ThingalA Line The dis
patch reads as follows:
Message received from Lisbon. Passengers and crew
all saved Brought 10 by steamer Missouri.
$40 passengers following Missouri to Philadelphia re-
mainder stl on tho Azores.
Mr. Got III, it is needless to say, was over
loved. lie said afterwArd that the greatest
burden Of suspense and anxicty he had ever had
on his mind was lifted off by that brief message
He lost no time in spreading the news that the
Danmark was safe, but sent word Immediately to
the office of the company, No. 13 Safest, TO
John Rath, the general passenger agent OF the
line, Mr.. Rath was at his home No. 127 Hudson
ST., Jersey City, however, and the office was IN
charge Of Theodore Soedenberg Mr. Soed 'nberg
had been stationed there during Sunday TO an
swer the constant inquiries of those having friends
IN the Danmark. Already during the forenoon
he had sent several inquirers away with heavy
hearts, including the young man who had sister
and sweetheart on board.
MIR. Soedenberg read tho letter from MIR.
Gottheil. and he, too, was nearly beside himself
with ioy He communicated tu' tidings by tele-
phone 10 the Ship News office OF the Associated
Press. at Whitehall-st From this Office the In
gence quickly spread over the lower part OF
tho city:
GLAD TO HEAR OF THE MISSOURI.
Mr. soedenberg did not wait in the Office to
relieve the andeties Of any Of the friends OF
those on the Danmark after getting the letter
from Mr.. Gottheil but locked the place up and
posted over to Jersey City to inform Mr.. Rath
After he had gone Mr.. Gottheil came down town
and opened the Office but there were no callers
10 see him, except newspaper men, to whom
he could aive no additional facts beyond what
bis cable message contained.
The news OF the rescue relieved the suspense
not only of those having friends on the Dan
mark, but also, in lesser degree, the daily
growing anxiety Of the owners of the Missouri
which was nine days overdue at Philadelphia,
and her owners, Peter Wright 81 Sons, had
begun to feel great uneasiness for the safety of
the ship. The Missouri sailed from London on
March %, and passed tho Lizard on March 20, and
nothing had been heard Of her since. The
thought of connecting her with the fate OF the
Thingvalla steamer was not entertained by any
one, although 1t was sister ship Of the Missouri,
the Minnesota, that passed the empty i nte-o ooat
of the Danmark on April III. The missouri

ing condition. At first the Missouri was only
able to take aboard twenty of the Danmark's
passengers, but after having jettisoned u portion
of her cargo, she found accommodations for all the
crew and passengers of the Danmark.
The Missouri then proceeded to the Azores, and
left there the first and second officers and 800 pas
angers. She then continued her journey to Phil
adelphia, with $40 passengers and the rest of the
crew.
The captain and three engineers of the Dan
mark left the Azores on April II for London on
board steamer from Ddnerara.
The Danmark was about 500 miles from New
foundlsnd when the accident happened. Some
say that the engines broke down. Engineer Kaas
was found dead in the engne-room soon after
the accident
The death of the Danmark's engineer was due
to the bursting OF an engine pipe. The engineer
was killed on the spot and the ship was badly dam
aged. In consequence of this damage, together
with the breaking of the shaft the vessel was
helpless in the heavy seas that prevailed
Forty-two Sailors and all Of the passengers left
at the Azores by the Missouri came to Lisbon on
