DISABLED AT SEA.
Cunard Steamer Catalonia TOwed Into
Port by the Brauns chweig.

New York, Feb. 12.-The North
German Lloyd steamer Braunschweig
arrived at her dock early this morning
from Bremen, via the Azore islands,
bringing the passengers of the Cunard
steamer Catalonia, which she picked
up on Jan. 90 at sea. She towed the
Catalonia into Ponta del Gada, port
in the Azores. The Catalonia left
Liverpool on Jan. 16 and Queenstown
on Jan. II, and had proceeded about
Loaf miles west of Fastnet, when her
shaft broke, leaving her helpless. At
1 a. m. of the next morning the White
Star steamer Cevic spoke the disabled
Cunarder, but, as the Catalonia seemed
to be riding at ease, the White Star
freighter hurried on towards New
York, as Capt. Nicol thought it would
be worth more to his owners to make a
&c o | trip than to stop and tow the dis
abled vessel into port. At o'clock of
the morning of Jan. % the Braun
schweig hove in sight, and, in response
to the Catalonia's signals, agreed to
tow her to the Azores, which port
was safely reached on Jan. 90.
