Steamship LA Bourgoyne" Goes
Down With 5S4 Lives.
On the early morning of the Fourth,
while the bells in Ellsworth were
ringing in he national holiday and men
and women who lacked patriotic senti-
ment were grumblng at the custom
which made sleep impossible, less than
500 miles away as the crow flies, more than
100 human beings Were graphing in
life and death struggle on the deck OF
sinking steamship.
II stories told Of that scene are true,
the first law of brute nature ruled. and
strong men fought with weak men and
weaker women for the preservation OF
their own lives; II Is even asserted that
women and men were stabbed to dealt or
hurled into the sea by frenzied brutes
who fought for places In the boats and on
the RATS. The story is told in the fact
that OF over 100 women on board, only
one was saved. The picture is too horri-
bic to contemplate; 1t furnishes a start
ling view Of uncloaked human nature
This Is the story OF the wreck Of the
French transatlantic steamer ia Bour-
goyne", in collision with the iron ship
"Cromartyshire", sixty miles south Of
Sable island, in dense fog. The steamer
was struck amidships, and sunk in fifteen
minutes. The forward bulk head OF the
"cromartyshire" saved her from sinking,
and she was towed into Halifax.
There were $50 persons on board the
ship-22o first and second cabin passen-
gers, OF whom only eleven were saved :;
297 steerage passengers, OF whom fifty
one were saved, and 233 officers and crew
OF whom 104 were saved. This makes the
