from Antwerp on Saturday for New
York, is ashore on Goodwin Sands.
A tug has been sent from Dover to
the assistance of the Vaderland, which
is ashore in East Goodwin Sands. The
position of the steamer is not believed
to be dangerous. The fog is so dense
that it is impossible to see the dis

Many Disasters Reported.
So extensive is the list of groundings
that the number of tugs available is in.
adequate for the calls for assistance.
Two or three other vessels have
grounded on Goodwin Sands. Many
collisions are reported. The German
steamers Marsale and Helene collided
and the Helene sank and eight of her
crew were drowned.
