Graphic account OF the steamer Venan-

NEW NORK, March 30 further partic-

steamer Nonango's narrow escape from de-
struction by fire while in mdocean on the
21st instgnt The vessel left Hamburg
March and Sunderland two days later.
1t was 1890 p. IN. of the 2lst inst, and
the sore OF the Nenango was churuing the
waters about 1900 milos from Sandy Hook.
There was "A heavy northwest gale blowing
and n fearful head sea rolling. The steamer
plunged and rolled in surprisingly bad
fashion, and in one Of her heaviest labors
the huge lamp in the saloon snapped its fas-
Jennings and fell to the floor. There was an
explosion, and in an instant the oil spread
in all directions about the saloon and burst
into Il mass Of flames
The cry Of 'iren caused all hands to 60
ait and tho pumps were speedily brought
into requistion. The chief officer was then
feeling his way, with Capt. Wilson, through
the dense smoke and flame that had filed
the saloon, and it Yves only after the great
est difficulty that both managed to get back
to the open air of the deck. The fire pump
did GOOD work when started, and in 20 min
utes had tho tlames extinguished. The in
tetlOI VI Tue shloou, Ho"eNcr, was 'oiuP'ot'
ly destroy ed. Not a single piece OF iurni-
ture or fittings escaped the flames.
The chief steward OF the vessel was fear
fully burned about the face and body IN
trying to arrest the flames. The saloon
was built of IRON, and Capt. Wilson thinks
this fact alone saved the ship from total
destruction. Tho gale intensified the flames,
and Tor long time, while the fire was in
progress, several Of the crew were busy pre-
puriug Inc boats in event of all hands being
compelled to abandoned the craft Capt
Wilson and the other officers lost all their
