The wreCk Strange TO say, nolwithstand-
ing the risk taken 10y those who jumped
into the water, not one was lost.
The marvellous rescue was due to the
forethourht Of the life saving crew, who
looked with misgivings on the attempt OF
the vessel to pass the chute, although the
water was at high tide--in fact, 1T was
what is called by river men "falls water. "
The sight Of the lifeboats tearing down
the channel In the wake Of the vessel, ait
err the passengers aud crew had the frst
sense of danger, gave them courage to re-
main on board and prevented a panic,
which, had it once broken out, would GER
| tainly have ended in n memorable dlsas-
| ter. A memorial Of the passengers was
presented to the crew, and also u letter by
! the master of the steamer, who, among
other things, said of the life savers, " You
| are brave men-life savers III ueeu anu
truth-weli named"
The spectators on the shore were thrown
into wild alarm by the drama taking place
before their eyes The current OF the
| broad river was running very swiftly, ow-
ING to the flood, and strong wind beat
the waters into waves like those of a
stormy sea. The sight was beautiful
one up to the moment when it became eV-
ident that the steamer was unmanageable.
Every one in the city knew the danger OF
descending the chute even under the most
favorable circumstances, but the start was
so happily made that the sudden turn OF
affairs caused the hearts of all who real
lied the danger to culver in fear, and the
suddenness of the calamity left no time in
which to gather hope.
The sight of "A ship laden with passen
gers, wholly unmanageable and with dan

exposed, in the channel ahead, could onl!

the volume of smoke or steam arose from
the engine room, the lockers on suddenly
took up the cry, "Iler boilers have explod-
edr' but the truth was that the vapor
came from the sudden rush of volumes of
water into the fires of the furnaces. An
other moment of terror occurred to the
spectators when they saw the smoke crawl
ing up around the flimsy woodwork of the
steamers cabin Notwithstanding the
sight of the lifeboats bravely manned rush
ing madly down to the rescue, in moments
like that no one could readily believe, al
though they might hope, that miracle
was about to take place. The total loss OF
the steamer upon the rocks in high tide

of all on board by outside aid are almost
unparalleled in the annals of shipwrecks

The vessel had barely gone down after
striking the last rock when the life saw

life and death pull, were alongside with
Ready and Reckless. They had left their
station house under the conviction that
every soul on board the steamer was in
danger Of being lost, and that salvation
depended upon them alone. Fortunately
they found the wreck in a comparatively
shallow stretch of water, which enabled
them to take the lifeboats close 10 the
gangway without moments waiting
The keeper shouted to the people, "Get
into the lifeboats, quick!n
A gangplank was made by twisting off
a cabin door, and on that the people slid
down, women and children first, until two
boats were filed. Then the life savers bent
their oars once more and dashed for the
Indiana bank, where the saved were quick
ly landed and the boats returned for other
loads. Meanwhile some of the impatient
passengers, doubting the proves of the
life savers, jumped from the wreck and
attempted to save themselves on floating
casks and other wreckage, but the current
was so strong that even those who were
swimmers could not make Roadway
against il and drifted down stream To
these the lifeboats paid no attention, but
returned TO the wreck and took off, one
after another, loads to the number of IL,
