Pitiful Sight at Quebec When
Rescued From Empress
Reach City.
MANY ARE BADLY INJURED
All Arc Thinly Clothed and Had Suf-

Few Women Saved.

Quebec, May 30.-A full equipment
of ambulances supplied by Quebec, by
the town of Lewis on the opposite side
service corps was waiting at Lewis
when the special survivors of the EN-
press OF Ireland train from Rimoush
arrived and the survivors Of the EN-
press of Ireland were Immediately dis
embarked and transferred to the ferry
steamer, which had been waiting at
the special wharf to facilitate the
transfer to Quebec.
1t was pitiful sight when the ferry
steamer Polaris docked on the Quebec
side at $3.50 o'clock Friday night and
the 1896 men and women survivors
trooped falteringly down the gangway.
Victims Show Exhaustion.
The faces of all plainly registered
the frightful experience they had gone
through. Few of them possessed a
complete outfit of clothes, the majority
wearing only shirts, trousers and
boots.
Heads were barred as the injured
were brought ashore, supported by
friends and officials of the company
The second and third class passen-
gers and the crew were Immediately
made comfortable on the Allan liner
Alsatian, which was lying in an ad-
joining berth at the breakwater. The
first class and injured passengers were
transferred in automobiles and other
vehicles to the Canadian Frontenac.
A staff of doctors and nurses took
charge of the injured.
Twenty Women Are Saved.
Among the 25 survivors Of the first
cabin there were eight women and one
child and, strangely, among the 29 res
cued from the second cabin there were
also eight women and one child. OF
the 101 persons saved from the steer:
age four we've women.
Among the SO passengers left in
Rimouski were number who were so
i'll or so badly injured that they had to
be taken to the hospital.
Special praise was given the heroic
work of DIR. James F. Grant of Vic
toria, B. c., ships surgeon on the EN-
press. To his GOODNESS was credited
the saving Of a large number of per-
sons taken out of the water who prob
ably would have perished had they not
received prompt medical attention.

that its control can be accomplished
only by the strictest observance OF
sanitary precautions

afterward the new bishop sailed for
