Passengers Landed.

LIVERPOOL, March THE disaster 10
the Waesland only became known late last
night, the agents of the steamer receiving
a telegram from Captain Apfeld, which was
handed in at Almwich, little place near
Anglesey at half-past o'clock last even
ing. This telegram briefly announced the
fact of the disaster and did not give details
or explanation of how the collision oc-
Cured. The Waesland left Liverpool at l
p. m. last Wednesday. and the fact that
she had got no further than Anglesey
shows that she must have been greatly de-
layed by the fog.
Fifty-three of the passengers and crew
of the sunken steamer arrived al Liverpool
on board the Harmonides at 1888 o'clock
this morning. They were received by the
agents of the American line here and were
quartered at various hotels. The collision
occurred in a thick fog at half-past IL
o'clock Wednesday night, when the Waes-
land was about forty miles southwest of
Holyhead. The Harmonides struck the
Waesland amidships and there was a ter
rible shock. Most of the Waesland's pas
sengers had retired for the night. Perfect
order and discipline prevailed. The crew
of the steamer rapidly turned out the pas
sengers and succeeded in assuring them
that their lives were safe. The passengers
were greatly influenced by the coolness of
the crew and obeyed instructions willingly
and quickly. The Waesland's boats were
speedily got out and in less than half an
hour the entire ships company had been
transferred to the Harmonides. Unfortu-
nately, two lives were lost. The dead are
a steerage passenger named Dangerfield
and child named Elsie Emmett, the
daughter of cabin passenger.
The Waesand was owned by the In
| ternationaI Navigation Company but flew
the Belgian flag. She piled regularly in
the American line service between Phila-
delphia and Liverpool. touching at Queens
town each way. Formerly she was known
as the Russia. She was a four-masted
bark-rigged iron vessel of 1876 tons net
The fog is general all over the United
Kingdom and is a great hindrance to all
traffic. In London tonight it is unusually
dense, and when the people left the thea
tiers vehicular traffic was found to be next
/ 10 impossible. In many cases pedestrians
were Obliged to proceed with the aid OF link

The Harmonides belongs 10 the British
and South American Steam Navigation
! Company. better known as the Houston
| line. which operates a service of passenger
| and cargo steamers between Liverpool and
| the River Platte and Brazilian ports The
| line also operates service between New
York and those ports. The Harmonides

SUGAR BOUNTY TREATY
1T WILL SERIOUSLY AFFECT THE
COLONIES OF GREAT BRITAIN.
Also VIII Knock on One Million Marks
from the Profits of the German
karteI-Berlin Comment.

LONDON March 6-According to the
text OF the international sugar convention.
issued tonight by the Foreign ONCE. Great
Britain agrees during the continuance of
the convention, TO refrain from paying
bounties. directly or indirectly, on sugar
grown in crown colonies, and not to give
preferential treatment to colonial sugar
against sugar imported from foreign coun-
tries
BERLIN, March 6.-For the moment the
question of first Importance in Germany is
the adhesion of the government to the in
ternational sugar convention which was
signed at Brussels yesterday. The cable
grams describing Prince Henrys progress
through the United States are for the first
time since his arrival at New York given
subordinate place in public attention. The
spectacle of the sugar karters profits.
amounting now TO 100000 marks a year,
falling off to nothingness, fascinates this
immense community of money makers. 1t
has not by any means come to the point
of the downfall of the kartel, as the COM
bination of 400 raw and fifty-three refined
sugar manufacturers is called, but the
sugar interest, deeply affecting as it does
the agriculture of central Germany, is
greatly disturbed and fearful or what may
happen. The position of the government
is that nothing will happen except a
healthy readjustment of production for the
market at home and abroad.
The National Society of Sugar Producers
seems inclined TO resist the necessary legis-
lation. The executive committee of the
society adopted resolution to-day, among
other things holding that Germany could
not safely agree TO the Brussels convention
without the adherence thereto of the
United States and Russia.
The Deutsche Tages Zeitung, i'm its issue
of to-day, publishes an ultimatum i'm be-
half of the Agrarians, who. the paper as
Brussels convention rather than see the
under the law of 1896. can abolish the
sugar bounties at discretion, but the con-
sent of the Reichstag must be had for
reduction of the tariff. The managers of
the kartel are silent. but il is quite probable
they will yield 10 the government and to
the irresistible circumstances abroad.
DR.. Paasche, the great sugar authority,
who has long been the foremost represent
ative of the sugar interests i'm the Reichs-
tag. writes that the sugar syndicates must
yield reluctantly 10 the convention, be-
cause they could not dispense with the
British market. DR.. PaaSche SAYS that
sugar producers are facing enormous over
production. the total production of the
world in 1901 being 10. 100000 tons, which is
100000 tons in excess of the total prOduc-
ton in 1899. The visible supply on Aug. 81
says DR.. Paasche, which is the end of the
European season, Will be at least 2, 600 OV0
tons

In Collision with the British Ship
Harmonides and Went Down
in Thirty-Five Minutes.
MAN AND A CHILD LOST
ALL OTHER PASSENGERS AND THE
CREW TAKEN OFF SAFELY.
Accident Due to a Fog-COnduct of
Officers and Crew Praised
No Baggage Saved.

LONDON. March 6.-The American line
steamer Waesland, Captain Atfeld, from
Liverpool March 5, for Philadelphia, and
the British ship Harmonides. Captain Pen
tin, from Para Feb. 13, for Liverpool. met
in collision tonight off Holyhead, Wales.
The Waesland sank. The Harmonides res
cued the passengers and crew of the Waes-
land and is bringing them to Liverpool.
Tugs have been sent from Liverpool to
meet the Harmonides. The Waesland car
ried thirty-two cabin and eighty-two steer
age passengers.
The loss of the steamer was due to the
dense fog which enveloped the Irish chan
mel during the entire day, seriously delay
ing all vessels. The Waesland sank in
thirty-five minutes after the collision. The
passengers and crew lost all their belong
ings. The vessel carried no mails. The
passengers unite in the highest praise of
Captain Apfeld and his crew. 1t is expect
ed the company will send the passengers by
another vessel next week
