NORFOLK. Va, Oct. Reports Of
the exact magnitude of the disaster
in Hampton Roads last night, in
which the steamer City Of Norfolk,
loaded with excursionists. crashed
headlong into the British tramp
steamer Hawkhead, were awaited
with anxiety here early today. The
Hawkhead sank fifteen minutes after
the collision. Although preliminary
reports received here relate no loss OF
life, fear is felt there may have been
loss in transferring the passengers of
the City Of Norfolk to passing steam

over the roads and bad sea run
