A COLLISION AT SEA
 LOSS OF MANY LIVES
A Marine Disaster Reported From
 Norfolk Va.

Norfolk. Va, May 5.-A collision at sea that cost the lives of twenty or more people, and the sinking of the Clyde steamer Saginaw by the Old Do- minion steamship company's liner. Hamilton, occurred between the winter
 quarter light ship and Fenwick isl and lightship, on the Virginia coast, at 4:4O o'clock this morning.
 The Hamilton left New York yester- day afternoon at 3 o'clock for Norfolk, and the Saginaw passed out Of the Vir-
 ginia capes at o'clock last night.
 Philadelphia. A dense fog settled
 along the coast, shortly after nightfall
 and while going through the fog at re- duced speed, the Hamilton crashed into
 the Saginaw's side about twenty feet
 form the stern.
 The scene of the collision is about thirteen or fourteen miles off the shore. and between 1SO and 200 miles south of New York and between 125 and 40
 miles north of Norfolk.
 The fog whistles of both vessels were distinctly heard by each other for | several minutes before the collision oc- cured
 According to Captain Boap. of the Hamilton, his ship was making about
 nine miles an hour and the Saginaw
 about ten. The fog was so thick that objects ships length away were i'm visible. and when the two crafts hove | in sight of each other, bow-on, there
 iFt before they met The Saginaw veered
 as did the Hamilton, but they had no time to clear each other, and the knife like prow of the southward vessel i struck the Clyde ship on the port quar- ter. about twenty feet from her stern. cutting the entire rear of the ship away.
 The in-rLshing water caused the Saginaw to settle rapidly at the stern and the impetus of the Hamilton took
 her out Of sight of the crippled vessel. The engines, already reversed were put full steam to the rear. and the Hamilton circled round to the scene of 1 the wreck at the same time lowering l two life boats
 There was consternation among the | passengers of the Old Dominion ship. and the first thought was for their safety, but as soon as it was discovered ! that the ship was uninjured, save that
 some bow plates were stove in, all efforts were directed to the rescue of ] thos on the Saginaw. When the Sag { inaw was again sighted. her stern was
 under water, and her bow was high in
 the air. Panic stricken people rushed
 over her decks and scrambled toward 1 the bow. Life boats were lowered and 1 in the first fifteen colored women were placed, according to second officer W. 1 L, Morris, who was in command i The boat was swamped as it struck ] the water and its occupants were | thrown into the sea. All were drowned save the secoDd officer and the colored ! stewardess. The latter died before the 1 small boat reached the Hamilton, more from injuries received by the impact of 1 the collision than by drowning. She | had been held up by first Mate Goslee, twho sank himself as the small boat 1 from the Hamilton reached him.
 In the meantime, the rush of the wat CTS into the bow of the Saginaw had caused the decks to burst from their fastenings with a roar like the report
 of big guns, and tons of freight of all

 The consensus of the testimony of the witnesses today was favorable to Father Walser's claim of innocence and in support of the theory that a burglar or some other desperate man had com mitted the crime. Police Captain Ketch- um testified that the bloodhounds did not pay more attention to Father Wal ser's bed than to the other beds in the house.

The employers of the teamsters today notified the chief that they would resume business Wednes- day morning, and demanded protection. stating that they would hold the city responsible for any violence done to their men.
 While no serious disturbances have occurred today, there have been num- Der of minor cases of trouble. A dozen wagons have been held up and their drivers forced to return with loaded wagons. No freight has been moved, ho- tels have been unable to get supplies, and the suspension of business has been almost general. A number of restaur- ants have signed the scale demanded. but none of the large concerns havf, conceded a single point.

Every one has heard of the woman
visiting France for the first time who
expressed her surprise that "even the
young children spoke French 80
auently." She was much like the
Euglishman described in a book of
travel.
He was very fond of travelling and
took great delight in lionizing dif-
ferent cities which We visited, but in
one respect be was a stanch John
Bull. No power on earth could per-
suade him that when he resided in
Florence, for example, he could pos.
sibly be called foreigner.

Italians are foreigners, but I am an

"Sister Sarah, it would be an i'm

ter Sarah.
Then the clergyman, with uplifted
hands, said; "Let US be dismissed.
