Saratoga Badly Damaged
When Hit by Adirondack
Several Passengers and Some Of the Boats Crew PrscpaId
From Their BunkS Into tho River, But All Are Reported
Rescued Except One Man. An 0er Was Crushed 10 Death
by Falling Timbss. Heavy Fog EnwIopsd Both Vessels
and Prevented Pilots From Seeing the Danger

Albany, N. Y, Oct. BIN what was
practically head-on collision on the
Hudson river this morning between the
steamers Adirondack OF the Peoples line
and the Saratoga OF the Citizens line. one
man is believed to have lost his life, about
500 passengers had "A thrilling experience
and both the magnificent palace steam
ers were damaged TO the extent OF thou
sands OF dollars. the Saratoga being prac-
tically put out OF commission.
The missing man is George l.. Horton
OF Troy, freight clerk on the Adirondack
The collision occurred near Tivoli, about
80 miles from New York. one of the mar
rowest parts of the river. while both
boats were feeling their way through a
dense fog.
The Saratoga. bound south from Troy
with about 200 passengers and heavy
consignment of freight. crashed into the
Adirondack, bound north from New York
and tore about 20 feet of the lower deck
on the port side, forward OF the wheel.
The terrific impact caused the Saratoga,
with one side OF her lower deck almost
shattered, To rebound and she now lies at
anchor a few yards away from where the
collision took place.
The Onterora, a powerful propeller
steamer steamed alongside the Adirou-
dack soon after the crash and offered as
sistance Capt Edmund $. Wilson OF the
Adirondack gave the passengers the al
tentative OF staying on board or being
transferred 10 the shore on the propeller
and about $50 OF them chose the latter
course.
From the stories told by the passengers
and the captain OF the Adirondack there
was comparatively little excitement.
The collision tore away that part OF
the lower deck i'm which was located the
rooms OF First Mate John Dermitty and
Frank Flanagan OF New York and George
L. Horton Of Troy All three were pre-
cIpitated into the river and the first re-
port was that they had been lost but all
but Horton were soon picked up.
After the collision the Saratoga drifted
down stream TO shore.
Capt. Wilson said I'VE were i'm no
danger at any time. | did not call for
help, because we did not need Il. There
was no panic, and / never saw passen-
gers behave so well under the circum-
stances.
Excellent judgment prevailed through
out We did not go 10 the aid of the
