BOATCUT IN TWO
STEAMSHIP PRfMus SUNK IN COL,
LISBON WITH A TUG IN
RlvERFLHE.
sBouT FIFTY LIVES LOST

Majority Of the One Hundred and
Eighty-five Passengers Are Picked
Up or Swim Ashore but Probably
Half Hundred People Perish-of-
ficers of the Wrecked Vessel Said to
Be Responsible for the Disaster.
Hamburg, July 22.-The steamship
Primus, owned by the Hamburg Amer
lean line, with 1856 passengers on
board, was cut in two and sunk by the
tug Hansa on the River Elbe at 1880
a. m.
So far as ascertainable about fifty
persons were drowned. Thirteen bod
les already have been recovered.
The Primus was an excursion steam
er. from Buxtehude (province of Han
over, Prussia.
The disaster occurred between
Blankenese and Nienstadten.
Among the passengers were the
members of the Eilbeck Male Choral
society.
At the time of the accident the Pri-
mus was crossing the river channel
near Blankenese from the southern
into the northern fairway.
According to witnesses aboard the
Hansa: the movement was made too
precipitately.
The Primus struck the tug's engine
room and the Hansa endeavored TO
push her ashore but the tug grounded
and the ships parted. The Primus then
sank.
In the interval, however, about fifty
of her passengers were able to reach
the Hansa by means of ropes and lad
ders. Seventy more were picked up
by the tugs boats, while others swan
No Foreign Passengers.
The disaster caused deep gloom
here. Many children lost both their
parents. The Choral society, which
was on board the excursion steamer,
consisted mainly of workmen. There
were no foreign passengers. Captain
Peterman of the Primus swan ashore
and gave himself up to the police.
Captain, Sachs of the Hansa also sur.
rendered.
The Primus was the oldest boat on
the Elbe. She was built in England in
1874 and had never before met with an
accident.
The Hamburg-American line, which
owned the Hansa, issued a statement
to the effect that the weather was fine,
the moon was shining and that both
vessels were steering absolutely clear
of each other. Suddenly the Primus,
when about $50 feet from the Hansa,
put her rudder hard aport and crossed
the bows of the latter.
This mistake" continues the state.
ment, rendered collision unavoida-
BILE. The only possible step for the
Hansa to take, namely, to go full speed
astern, was carried out Immediately
but without avail. Less than minute
elapsed between the time the Primus
changed her course and the collision.
Boats were impediately lowered from
the Hansa and ropes and ladders were
thrown overheard. Fifty persons were
rescued by the boats. At the same
time the Hansa tried to push the Pri-
mus ashore, but, being of deeper
draught, grounded herself before the
passenger boat. The Primus floated
down stream and sank 300 feet from
the Hansa. -
