med by the Hansa. The tug tore her
way clear through theside of the steamer
almost cutting her in two. The Primus
began to settle and many of the panic
stricken passengers jumped into the
river rather than go down with the i'll
fated steamer. Fifty of the passengers
were hauled aboard the tug and 70

sionists.
