SINKS IN COLLISION.
Water Instantly Filled With Struggling
Men and Women.


New York, June 15.-The wooden
sidewheeler Northfield, which has
been in the service of the Staten Isl
and Railway company for the past so
years, was rammed last night by the
steel hulled propeller Mau0s Chunk
used as a ferry boat by the Central
Railroad Of New Jersey. The collision
occurred just off the Staten Island
ferry slip, at the foot of Whitehall
street, and in less than 20 minutes the
Mortified, which was crowded with
passengers, sank at the outer end of
the pier in the East river The Mauch
Chunk, which was badly damaged,
landed two dozen passengers who
were aboard her. Over 100 passengers
on the sunken Mortified were dragged
out by the people on shore, and the
crews of the fleet of river tugs, which
promptly responded to the ferry boats
call for help. A few of the Northfield's s
passengers were hurt, and the police be.
lieve that some lives were lost. Cap
tain Daniel Gully of the tug Mutual,
who saw the ferry boats crash to-
gether, says that Immediately after
the collision 25 or 80 of the passengers
leaped into the water and that many
of those perlshed. Captain Gully says
he is sure that over score of the
Northfleld's passengers were drowned.

London, June 17.-Lord Kitchener
has cabled from Pretoria under yesteH
days date as follows: "Near We'll
mansrust, 20 miles south of Middle
burg, ESQ Victorian mounted rides
from General Beastons column were
surprised in camp at Steenkoolspruit
by superior force of Beers at 7: 80 a.
M, June u. The enemy crept up to
within short range and poured deadly
fire into the camp, killing two officers
and 16 men, and wounding four officers
and 33 men, of whom IS were slightly
wounded. Only two officers and 90
men escaped to General Beastons
camp. The remainder were taken
prisoners and released. Two POM
poms were CAPTURED by the enemy.
Full details have not been received"
The serious reverse which Lord
Kitchener reports is the first accident
of the kind that has happened to the
Australian contingent, and it is sup
posed to be due to neglect cf proper
picketing. Although it is Offset by
the defeat inflicted upon Dewet's force
by Elliott's column on June 6, the loss
of the guns is regarded as a serious
matter which will encourage the Beers
to continue The struggle.
More or less fanciful accounts are
published on the continent of alleged
peace negotiations. but there is moth
