Long Overdue Steamer Puts Into Fayal
Harbor In Safety.

Long Overdue Steamer Puts Into Fayal
Harbor In Safety.
London advices say the big North Ger
man Lloyd steamer Ems. about which the
greatest anxiety has been felt arrived at
Fayal Monday morning. She was towed
into port. having broken her screw frame
and been made helpless. but not otherwise
injured, for many days. The Ems left
Portsmouth fifteen day ago for New York.
She had 400 souls aboard and should have
reached her destination a week previous
to her arrival at Fayal. The greatest
alarm was felt by pers ms having friends
on board and by the owners OF the boat,
she being considered the fastest and best
craft OF the North German Lloyd Company.
Many experienced navigators had given
up the steamer for lost, and 1t was even
reported that she had run afoul OF an ice
berg and been sunk, as the old Guion line
steamer Arizona did in 1879 The arrival
OF many craft showing the ravages OF ice
and storms made the loss Of the Ems seem
probable. Her safety, therefore, is doubly
gratifying. The Ems was towed 10 her
shelter at Fayal, Azore Islands. by the
steamer Wild Flower, bound out from Will
mington, Del The mishap to the steamer
occurred n few days after she left South
ampton and thereafter she was obliged 10
proceed under sail as best she could. One
OF the company's vessels now at an Italian
port will be sent to take off the passengers,
and machinists will lie sent at once 10 re-

The steamer William II. Barnum, which
left Chicago Sunday noon In the van OF the
grain feet went down of Freedom at the
west end OF the Straits OF Mackinaw. The
crew was rescued after a thrilling fight
with huge waves and the ice, but the boat
now lies In eleven fathoms OF water and Is
total loss The cargo consisted OF $4,000
bushels of corn. shipped by Irwin Green &
Co for export via Port Huron. With the
opening OF navigation the Barnum led the
grain feet out OF Chicago, bound for Port
Huron. Captain William Smith OF Marine
City, assumed command of her for the first
time and preparations were supposedly
made for a rough trip The steamer was
not In the best of condition. however, and
the severe weather down Lake Michigan
was apparently too much for her. Water
began TO pour into her bon after she en-
tered the Straits Sunday night Strenuous
efforts wer, made to check the inflow by
placing canvas over the holes battered
into the boat by the ice. But the hardest
work on the part of the crew seemed to
have little effect upon the steadily increas-
Ing flow Of water So fast did the water
enter the hold that an attempt was made
10 get the steamer on the beach, but the
Barnum began to sink. Benumbed, cold,
exhausted by labor at pumps and nearly
frozen and covered with ice, the rescue OF
the crew was accomplished with the great
