came panic-stricken, and were quieted
only after the captain and first officer
had threatened them with revolver and
knife Both the barometer and ther-
mometer fell rapidly, and a terrific gale
rolled up great seas.
When the storm was at it's worst the
steerage passengers became panic-strick-
en-. and sought to go on deck. insisting
that II they must die. they wanted to
meet death in the open. The stewards
and minor officers lost control of the
passengers. and appealed to the captain
for assistance. Captain Juham and First
Officer Mehau6as, who were on tho
bridge, hurried to the ateerage quarters
and attempted to pacify the terrortzed
passengers. First they assured them that
there was no danger, then threatened
them. and finally drew revolvers and
knives and threatened to use them un-
less the passengers became quiet. Order
finally was restored. Soon afterwards
the storm abated.
Captain Juham said that the storm,
while 1t lasted, was the most severe no
ever saw in his thirty years experience
