EIGHT BURNED
To Death on the Little Steamer
Marion Near Charleston.

She Left the City Late Thursday
Night for Edisto and Took Fire
OF Hart's Island.
Eight colored passengers aboard
the steamer Marion, Captain Fergu-
son, were burned to death early Fri
day morning, when the steamer was
near Hart's Landing. all of the ten
white passengers, if reports be true,
having escaped with slight injuries.
Capt. Ferguson was burned severe
ly,but it is understood that he is be-
yond danger and that he stands
good chance of recovery The fol-
lowing particulars of the disaster we
take from The News and Courier:
The steamer Marion. with 10
white nd thirty colored passengers
aboard. left the Union wharf at II
O'Clock Friday morning. and was
proceeding rapidly on her way, when
after being about four hours from
Charleston. FIRE was discovered in
the forward part of the vessel, and,
famed by strong breeze, made
such rapid headway that it became
impossible for all the passengers,
many of whom were asleep. to es-
cape.
When the flames were discovered
every effort was made to reach Harts
Landing. and, seeing that the vessel
would be practically consumed be-
fore the landing was reached, the
boat was turned towards the beach,
but so rapidly did the flames advance
that the passengers We're being
scorched before the vessel reached
shoal water, and, despite the fact
that every effort was made to save
the passengers, eight of the colored
people aboard were burned to death.
When the heat of the advancing
flames became painful, the colored
passengers became frantic with fear,
and efforts to save them were rem
dered futile by the blind terror by
which they were possessed.
Capt. Bulwinkle, of the steamer
Atlantic City, came into port Thurs
day night with large number of
the Marion's passengers. aboard, but
as the fire had broken out when most
Of them were asleep, and as they
were heavy with slumber when they
had to escape for their lives, few
connected statements could be secur-
ed from them No white passengers,
it was learned. were burned and s
colored passengers were burned to
death.
The first news of the disaster
reached Charlston early Thursday
morning, when Mate John Foster
telegraphed to relations in the city
that the Marion had been burned
and that a number Of negro passen-
gers had been injured. He, himself,
Sc the telegram said, sustained only
slight burns and was in no danger.
The steamer Marion was Of 206
tons register, "a feet beam and 2o0

butt at Pregnall's shipyard in 1905
and was an excellent boat for the
purposes intended, that Of carrying
freight and passengers in between
Charleston and Edisto. 1t could not

wether or not any insurance was car
ried. The colored passengers who
lost their lives were understood to
be residents Of the islands and the
names were u1obtalnable..
