DETAILS OF THE COLLISION BE.
TWEEN BIG OCEAN LINERS
OFF cHERBoURG.
MORE THAN A DOZEN LIVES LOST
DAMAGE TO KAISER WILHELM
DER CROSSE ESTIMATED At
ABOUT 100000.

Cherbourg, France, Nov. 23.-De-
tails of the collision between the
North German Lloyd steamer Will
helm der Crosse and the British Royal
Mail steamer Orinoco show that it
occurred at 9 o'clock Wednesday
night. The Kaiser Wilhelm der
Crosse and the Orinoco were both
outwardbound from Southampton, via
Cherbourg, for New York and West
Indian ports, respectively. The shock
is described as having been terrific,
causing panics among the passengers
on board the two vessels, especially
among the emigrants. On the ORR
noco three men and a woman were
killed, six women and a man were
injured and five persons were knocked
overheard and drowned. Of the two
steamers the Kaiser Wilhelm der
Crosse is said to have sustained the
most damage, but beyond the fact
that she has hole in one side of her
the nature of her injuries has not
been ascertained Four of the crew of
the Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse were
killed and twelve injured. The dam
age to the Orinoco was confined to
her bows. Both vessels remain in the
roadstead here.
The damage to the Kaiser Wilhelm
der Crosse is estimated here at $780,
900. "
When the collision occurred the
Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse was steam
ing at the rate of seventeen knots an
hour from Cherbourg, after having
touched here on her voyage out. The
Orinoco was bound for this port when
the accident happened.
Story of Orinoco's Captain.
The commander of the Orinoco
claims that he signalled that he was
going to starboard of the North Ger
man Lloyd vessel, but that the latter
held her course across the Orinoco's
bows and only went to port of the
OrinocO when it was too late. The
engines of the OrinocO, it is added,
were reversed so soon as it appeared
likely that an accident would occur,

bow Of the Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse,
making breach, twelve feet wide.
The stem of the Orinoco above the
water line was carried away as the
vessels cleared after the collision.
The shock threw all the passengers
on the Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse off
their feet and the grinding of the
Orinoco's bow into the steerage of the
German vessel instantly killed four
persons, disembowelling a girl eleven
years DID,
The captain of the Orinoco ordered
boats to be cleared away, but the
panic on board of her was general
Some of the crew jumped into and
launched two of her boats and several
frenzied women attempted to get into
them as they were being lowered over
the side. One boat was swamped
when it struck the water.
So soon as the accident occurred a
number of small boats from Cherbourg
put out to the scene of the collision
and succeeded in rescuing some of the
sailors and passengers who were
struggling in the water, but five OF the
crew of the Orinoco are believed to
have been drowned
