ALL IN DEADLY PERIL
immigrants VIII be Taken to New
York by Special Trains and Can
be Thankful They Are
Alive.

slOnateu PreSs Leased Wire Service
HALIFAX, Jan. IA gale blowing
cut OF the north caused apprehension
early today for the stranded liner
Uranium, on the reefs in Shoal Cove,
near the Chebucto Cove light. The
wind had shifted during the night
ana 1t was feared here that it might
cause the liner to break up. It was
kEown that the feet of wrecking
steamers that had beer assigned to
get the liner OFF the rocks was not ex-
pected to make the attempt until 1870
today, when the tide would be food.
Meanwhile the SS3 passengers were
safe in the immigration buildings
while the agents Of the line were ar
ranging for SPECIAL trains to take them
to New York. All had been in deadly
peril. Had the vessel taken the bot
tom twelve hours later, their transfer
would have been far more difficult.
This was the last port Of call for the
Uranium on her voyage from Rotter-
dam. That she took the rocks only
nine miles from this city, was mat
ter that navigatcrs were unable to
explain today. Captain Eustice has
positively refused to make any ex-
PLANTATION even to the rescue vessels
that went out and brought the pas
sengers here, but It was generally be-
lfeved that he miscalculateS his posi-
ton and there was the suggestion
that his compass might have been
sIghtl of.
The steamer grounded in a dense
fog. OF her passengers, 7So were in
the steerage. When they discovered
that the steamer was aground
there was grave apprehension. The
officers and sailors calmed them and
told them that help would soon be at
hand. Meanwhile the light house
keeper at Chebucto had communicated
with this city, and the big government
steamer Lady Laurier, the steamer
Bridgewater, and fleet of tugs were
hurried to the scene.
The rescue craft reached the strand
ed liner at Q o'clock Sunday after
noon, and the work Of transfer was
begun. The lifeboats of the Uranium
and three surf boats were pressed IN
to service, and the transfer of the
passengers. women and children first,
was hurriedly accomplished.
The enforcement of the rule resulted
in numerous pathetic scenes, many Of
the women and children refusing to
leave husbands and fathers until act
ually dragged away. But the sailors
gently separated them and they were
passed from hand to hand down the
gangways and into the tossing life
boats which transferred them to the
craft that later brought them to this
! city.
May be Floated.
HALIFAX, Jan. 13.-Hopes that the
liner Uranium, which is on the rocks
near the entrance to Halifax harbor
will be floated within "a hours were
strong today. The weather moderated
as the day wore on and the high vino
from the north shifted around so that
when the wrecking tugs got their
lines aboard shortly before noon the
Uranium was completely sheltered by
the cliffs. Her captain reported by
wireless to the agents here that he
believed he would save the steamer.
