| New YORK, Sept. 16.-Ayay on old
ocean, with land on either side 1900
miles away, and on vessel which they
believed TO be sinking, was the position
In which the passengers of the steamer
Italia found the mselves on September
9Th. The Italia did not sink, bus came
safely into port today, with as scared a
crew and passengers as ever were found
on ahipboard. That something fatal did
not occur seems q marvel, for nothing
short OF miracle made the Italia stand
the wear and tear of battle with the
waves. When shs reached port today
she presented only faint resent mblsncs
OF the craft that left here two months
ago Tor the Mediterranean. Most OF her
lie boats were missing, and such as
were not were unfit for use. They were
staved in and battered in, while the in
terror OF the iron-hulled vessel, at least
as far as the pnsssngers' quarters were
concerned, was almost total wreck.
The damage was all due to one wave.
The Italia was not the only craft that
had rough passage. The Hindoo, from
Hull, luckily without passengers. had
similar, though not quite such dsas-
trouH experience. She, too, was badly
damaged.
Six OF the officers and crew OF the
ltaiia were injured. Second Officer Che.
wan was washed off the etarboard ladder
and thrown against a ventilstor, sustain
ing serious bruises. Captain Craig and
Boatawain Mcfarland were thrown into
the lee scuppers, and when the steamer
rolled were landed against the smoking
room. The captains leg was injured
and the boatswain received severe in~
ternal injuries. The third engineer was
severely injured about the back and left
leg.
On September 7th the storm increased
Ia fury and at 5 O'Clock Captain Craig
ordered the vessel headed toward the
sea. For three hours the passengers
were huddled together in the cabin,
waiting for what they supposed to be
their last moment. The steamer rolled
from side TO side as II she was going to
kesl over, while the voices OF nearly all
the crew could be heard above the
storm, repeating the orders from the
bridge. The steering gear had parted,
leaving the steamship at the mercy OF |
the sea. An attempt was made to ship |
and man the hand gear. but before it
could be done big wave boarded the
ship over the port bow. rolling over the |
deck. carrying everything before it.
Liie-boats were smashed and carried !
away. the smoking room and hospital
doors were burst in and the steam pipes
on the deck broken and bent The |
chairs screwed to the floor were torn up,

LONDON, Sept. 16.-Mr. Wellmsn, the
leader of the American Arctic expsdi-
tion, whose plans to explore the far
north were frustrated by the sinking OF
his vessel, which was crushed in the
ice, will sail from Southampton for New
York on Wednesday next, by the
steamer Spree. He will be accompanied
by the American members OF his party.
In the course of an interview Mr..
Wellman aaid the failure of Lieutenant
Peary to reach North Greenland shows
that, like the Wellman expedition, he
met unusual difficulties arising from the
extreme unfavorable season. He warmly
defended his expedition against the
charges made OF inexperience and bad
outfit. He especially protested that he
had not abandoned Professor Oyen
on Danes island. The professor,
he added, had 1900 pounds OF
provisions on the island, and was
therefore in no danger from suffering
from lack of food. Professor oyen had
himself perfectly absoived him from the
charge OF abandonment.
In conclusion Wellman stated all the
