mouth"
Among the passengers of the Paris
were many poor female emigrants,
mostly foreigners. All have been safely
housed in the Sailors Home here.
One of the women described her ex
perience as follows: Il was awake
when the vessel struck. / heard a
dragging sound and felt a shock; then
the engines stopped. / went upstairs TO
find out what the matter was. | could
see the land quite plainly. | thought
the ship had stopped to take on pas
sengers. 1 did not think there was any
thing wrong and / returned to bed and
stayed there half an hour. Then
steward told me to get up. L said:
There's my baby; don't wake him.
The steward replied: If you want to
save your baby, get up L got up and
dressed myself and the baby and went
on deck. We were much frightened,
but there was no confusion. They
treated us in the kindliest manner and
finally brought us here on tug"
Mrs Batcheler, sister of United
States Senator Vest of Missouri, who
embarked at Cherbourg, says the
weather was wet and nasty when they
left port. She retired early and at
about / o'clock was awakened by a tre-
mendous crash, which at first seemed to
arise from the machinery. Then every
thing became so quiet that she did
not leave her berth. Soon afterWard,
however she was aroused by stew
ard. who urged the passengers to dress
and go on deck Immediately. Putting
on a few things Mrs Batcheler hurried
above. and found hundreds Of half
dressed passengers there before her.
The officers were busily engaged in
preparing the boats for launching and
calming the passengers, though there
was comparatively little excitement, as
it was evident that the ship was not
sinking. and at daybraek all were as
sured by glimpses of the shore.
Mrs. Batcheler said that some of the
passengers asserted that they heard
Captain Watkins say: q am unable
to understand how this happended.
There was no fog when Mrs. Batcheler
went on deck, but only misty rain.
The worst trouble, she says, arose in
transferring the passengers in small
boats to the tugs. "The officers and
crew." she observed, worked like Tro-
jams in getting the old people and chill
dren off. and they certainly deserve
great praise -

guished audience, including the Countess

Belgium the heir presumptive
On his arrival here last Thursday Mgr

ton. where he met the papal Nuncio. the

When the vessel struck most of the
passengers were asleep. She seemed to
rise, then quivered. grated over the
rock and stood still with a slight list to
port. The shock suggested striking a
derelict or a small vessel, and the pos
sibility of being on the rocks therefore
was not suggested until the stewards
were heard crying, All hands on deck

in their nightclothing. One man Wore

much smiling that his wife sent him
down to dress, which he did in the
music room to the equal amusement of
all There were no signs of panic
The soundings showed nine fathoms of
water forward and fourteen aft, but
the ship rested on a fiat rock, while the
rocks rising, on each side held her al

mined the position of the Paris, and
the position of the wreck of the Mohe-
gan shows that the Paris was even
more out of her course than the Mohe-
gan, she having passed between the
Mohegan and the shore, and then, when
the mistake was discovered, having
changed her course in the hope of
clearing the rocks thus miraculously
escaping. the manacles."
Captain G.. w. McCallum of Pittsbure
says: II heard a tremendous crash

women seemed calmer than many of
the men. AS soon as the tugs arrived
I knew we were all safe, as the sea was
calm and there. would be no trouble in

Captain Scott of the ship Kinross
says: Il was bringing my vessel into

the Paris occurred. st. Anthony light

falling, but there was no fog, and / saw
the line nearly all the way from the
Lizard. 1t is impossible for me to un-
derstand how the Paris got into that
position any better than the Mohegan.
The possibility of mistaking the ST.
Anthony light for the Lizard light is
ridiculous, as the former is revolving
oil light, low down, and the Lizard
light is two fixed electric lamps on a
high cliff
Mrs. A. G. Spauling of Chicago says
Il was well forward and felt the shock.
When / aroused my maid she insisted
upon staying in bed, exclaiming, If we
must drown, let us drown in bed. 1t was
