London, July 4.-BetWeen 600 and
700 Scandinavian and Russian emf
grants bound for New York were
drowned in the North Atlantic June %.
The Danish steamer Norge, which
left Copenhagen June % with TIA souls
on board. struck reef on the islet of
,Rockall, about 290 miles off the west
coast of Scotland.
A great hole was torn In the bottom
of the ship, which sank at once, only
128 persons having escaped with their
lives SO far as can be learned. -
Early on the morning of last Tues
day the Norge, which was out of her
course in heavy weather, ran onto the
Rockall reef. which in the distance
looks like ship under full sail. The
Norge was quickly backed off, but the
heavy seas poured in through a rent
in her bows.
The emigrants, who were then
awaiting breakfast below, ran on deck.
The hatchways were scarcely built
for these hundreds of souls and be-
came clogged.
The Norge quickly began to 60 down
by the head. y Eight boats were low
cred and into these the women and
children were hurriedly put. Six Of
these boats were smashed against the
sides of the Norge, and their helpless
inmates caught up by the heavy seas.
Two boatloads got safely away from
the side of the sinking ship and many
Of the emigrants who were left on
board, Selling life belts, threw them
selves into the sea and were drowned.
Captain Gundel, so say the. surviv-
OTIS, stood on the bridge of the doomed
vessel until it could be seen no more.
Hundreds Go Down With ship.
The Norge foundered suddenly and
some 900 terrified emigrants were
thrown into the water or drawn down
with the sinking ship. Those who
could swim tried to reach the boats,
but those were already too full and
their occupants beat off the drowning
Wretches with oars.
One of the survivors said that when
he got on the deck the Norge was
half submerged and was rapidly GET
ting lower in the water. Half mad
with fright the survivors all strug-
gled for places in the boats. They
fought their way to the big lifeboat
and an officer slowed in the six women
and the girl and then told the men to
get in.
The officer then took charge and got
the BOAT away from the side o. the
Norge. Seeing that the boat was al
ready overloaded the officer, with
great heroism, jumped into the water
and tried to board another boat which
was not so full. He failed and was
drowned.
In: the sea by this time was mass of
struggling men, women and children,
gasping and choking from the effect
Of the water. The boat rowed clear
Of this seething inferno and just as she
drew away the Norge went down.
The only hope for the missing is
that some few Of them might have
been washed UP on the barren rock.
Their chance of being rescued even
then is practically nil, for vessels sail
ing the North Atlantic give Rockall az
wide berth as possible.
