Hong Kong, Oct. 15.-The British
steamer Hankow was burned Sunday
morning while lying alongside her
wharf. Hundreds of Chinese passen-
gers we're burned to death, and val
liable cargo was destroyed. All the
European passengers and crew were
saved.
The steamer Hankow, with 1000
Chinese passengers, men, women and
children, and seven Europeans and
cargo including 3700 bales of mating,
80 bales of raw silk and 400 bales of
waste silk, arrived from Canton and
was shortly afterward moored at the
wharf
Her chief officer reported to Captain
Branch that the ship was afire. The
captain then directed the chief engi-
neer to turn on the water through the
fire hose. This was impossible for the
reason that within five minutes after
the alarm was given the Hankow was
ablaze fore and aft.
Captain Branch then awakened the
European passengers, who rushed
= down the gangway, the ladies in their
Il NO CiCW Woo SOHNAR~fN
ed to leave the ship, which by this
time was a veritable furnace. The
Chinese steerage passengers were
d thrown into a frightful panic. Horri-
I flying shrieks and cries to save their
d lives were heard, but escape was I'M
Z possible owing to the inf1ammable ma
II ture Of the cargo. Hundreds were
y burned to death and many others
IS jumped into the harbor and were
drowned.
"a Responding to signals the British
o. cruiser Flora and the naval dockyard
dispatched contingents of engines and
~ assistance. The land and floating bri
~ gades of firemen made herculean eff
H. forts to extinguish the flames which
lie leaped to height of over 60 feet.
After four hours the fire wai
n brought under control, at which TIM
ly only the shell and hull of the Hankov
II remained.
IT, There are many theories as to tn
W. cause of the fire. The first Is that
ne was caused by the overturning OF
Ill lantern by a Chinese boarding hous
IN runner, who came aboard seeking cui
de toners. The second is that an opiur
un smoker accidentally set fire to ma
IN ting, the third is that it was caused b
rst the crossing of electric wires.
I'D fourth theory and one that is consi'
ice cred the most probable is that the fiji
III was incendiary and was an outgrowt
or of a boycott against British rive
vi boats.
The steamer Hankow was owned
OF the China Navigation company

ers 1876. The vessel was constructed

a jubilee, revival and concert in the
stands. 1t was one of those mar
velous trasitions from rage and
despair to unbounded joy and en-
thusiasm which are SO mystifying
to foreigners who do not under

ways. Well, sir, we pegged along

picked me up and carried me on
their shoulders to the club house.
