twcst,ru Newspaper Union New, Service,

Brest.-Nearly one hundred persons
persisted when the Peninsular & Orien-
tai liner Egypt sank off the island of
Ushant after a collision in the fog
with the French cargo steamer Seine.
News of the disaster was brought here
by the Slene, which made port with
the rescued and twenty bodies. The
Egypt was bound from London for
Bombay. Ushant is twenty-six miles
west by north of Brest. The Egypt
sailed from London for Bombay Fri
day with forty-four passengers and IA
crew of POO. A roll call on board the
Seine after the disaster showed that
at least fifteen of the passengers and
eighty of the crew of the Egypt were
missing.
The collision occurred during a
dense fog within twenty-five miles of
the Armen lighthouse. The dinner
gong was about to be sounded on board
the Egypt. Many of the passengers
and most of the crew were on deck.
The shock threw several persons into
the sea; others jumped and n number
went down with the ship, which sank
in twenty minutes.
The Seine, badly damaged, reached
Brest with t~wenty-nine rescued passen-
gers, more than two hundred of the
crew, and the bodies of twenty dead.
The captain of the Egypt is among the
saved.
When the collision occurred there
was a rolling sea. Some of those res
cued charge that the Indian sailors on
a the Egypt usurped the life
boats, compelling a large number of
the passengers and crew to shift for
themselves. Those who jumped into
the sea and who could swim. scram-
bled about for bits of wreckage to
which they might cling. Many of
these were rescued. They floated
about in the fog after the Egypt went
down, calling for help. The sound of
heir voices directed members of the
crew of the Seine in small boats who
We're patrolling the sea, picking up
both living and dead.
Among the known missing are the
doctor and chief engineer of the Egypt.
The Egypt was a vessel of 5000
tons. The Seine was bound for Havre
when the collision occurred.
Two American women, Mr.. NJ. L. Sib-
ley and Miss V. NJ. Boyer, were on
board the steamer Egypt and are miss
ing, according to the Peninsular &
Oriental line officials at London. Their
addresses are not known.
II. F. Bevan, another American, was
saved.

Envelope Valued at s12. 500.

August Lutteken of Denver, one of
the largest stamp collectors in the
world, has an envelope mailed in 1859
which is valued at S12,50O.
There are no postage stamps on the
envelope. 1t bears only what were
known as postmasters' stamps, requir-
ing payments of 5 cents overseas post
age and the collection of another 5
cents postage from the addressee on
delivery. No street address appears
because such letters could be received
only by calling in person ut the post
office. The practice was discontinued
about the time of the Civil val and
specimens have become so rare that
Lutteken asserts the one he holds is,
In his belief, the only one extant.
