THE ELDER IN ABAD WAY.
LITTLE HorE OF sAyISG HEB NOW
Steamer Reports the Probable Rescue OF
the Crew of the Missing scow.

LONDON, Feb. 2.-There now seems to be
more than q probability that the North-Ger-
man Lloyd steamer Elder which ran on the
rocks at Atherfed, Isle Of Wight, at about 10
o'clock on Sunday night, will become total
loss. II was hoped last night that the gov
ernment and other tugs would be able TO pull
the Elder off at midnight. but all attempts in
that direction have failed. Throughout the
night high wind prevailed, raising heavy
sea. which caused high breakers to sweep
almost continuously over the Elder. lhe re-
suit is that her position changed decidedly
for the worse Her bow has risen out or the
water and her stern has sunk lower beneath
the breaking waves which deluge her a.
short intervals The steamships propeller
during the night was carried away
This morning Captain Heinecke signaed
that the size of the leak in the Elders bottom
had increased and that the water was
gaining rapidly upon the crew in spite OF the
ceaseless efforts TO keep 1t down
LITTLE HOPE LEFT.
As the tide began 10 rise this morning the
hopes of those who still believed that the
Elder could abe foated began 70 sink TO the
lowest ebb. for the water steadily rose uhtli
it oYerfOwed the after deck. In addltlon the
fresh breeze referred to III an earlier portion
of these dispatches which sprung mp this
morning. gradually freshened, as anticipated;
into a gale of wind, which again caused
heavy seas to sweep over the Elder.
At g:3O o'clock this morning two officers ana
EIGHT fremen. having with them case or
gold. were landed from the Elder by lie
boat At noon report was recelVeu at
Iloyds stating that the Elder was setting and
that there was little hope OF fiOating her. Inc
dispatch added that the sea was rough and
that the wind was from the westward with
the exception of the gold above mentioned
none of the bullion or specie aboard the
steamer has been landed.
A few bags of the mail from the Elder and
227 Of her passengers have arrived at south
ampton. They were driven from Atherheld
across the Isle of Wight TO COwes. where they
took steamer to southampton. Here the
passengers destined for Bremen will be trans
ferred to the North German Lloyd steamer
Havel. which sailed from New ork January
26th and (which is expected to arrive at South
ampton this afternoon.
ATHERFIELD LEDGE.
Atherfeld ledge. where the Elder IS
stranded. lies almost due north by St. Gathers
Point the southern extremity of the Isle OF
Wight. The ledge lies between Brlxton bay
and Chele bay. The sOundlngs around the
ledge are of different depths. At little dis
tance 10 the west the lead shows depth ol
twelve fathoms, which suddenly shoals to five
fathOms. Just off the edge or the reef e
the north and south the water IS only three
fathoms deep The Needle light, which II
passlng1p he SOlent on the way TO south
ampton the Elder should have made on the
starb0ard g some nine miles north by wes
of Atherfeld ledge. The light is erected on
the outermost Of the Needles rocks and /,
elevated thirty feet above high water.
