river steamer Mabel and three other boats
recently, when they were swept over the
Tumatumey falls, in the Demarara
river, British Guiana, have just been re-

1t appears that the Mabel had three
boats in tow. There were 120 pas
sengers altogether. The passage was un-
eventful until the boats were within 200
yards of the Tumatumey landing, when
the current became too swift A line Was
thrown from the shore, and Capt. De-
Camp, a passenger on the steamer, vol
unteered to swim ashore with it. The
passengers then became excited, and
many of them jumped overheard Some,
1t is said, got in the way OF Capt De-
Camp, who only escaped being drowned
by catching hold of a tree.
HOPE ABANDONED.
All hope of saving the boats was now
past, and amid the heartrending screams
of the passengers they were swiftly swept
down stream. AS soon as they reached
the rapids two boats were smashed
against the rocks and sunk The rope
