NO FEARS FOR THE EDAM's SAFETY.

No further news received here Yesterday OF
the Netherlands American steamship Edam which was
sighted BY the North German Lloyd steamship Elder
in mld-ocean with her propeller gone At the Office
Of the Netherlands American Line yesterday it was said
that the cable dispatches received by the company
stated that the Edam had lost the whole OF her pro
peer No fears are entertained for her safety, and
the agent thought that she would sail back to Queens
town. The fact that she refused assistance from the
Elder it was thought showed that she not in any
danger but jogging along comfortably under sail.
The Edam Is brig rugged and while not able TO make
much headway against head winds do fairly well
of the wind II would be trouble al all for her to
sail back Queenstown. Some twelve or thirteen
wears ago the City OF Brussels lost her propeller soon
after crossing the bar off Sandy Hook and sailed 10
Liverpool. About fifteen years Of the Anchor
Line stemers sailed from here 10 Liverpool. The
Edam has 60 cabin and 400 Storage passengers aboard
and is abundently prOvsioned.
