lives moving through floating wreck
age to pick up the survivors.
Cries for help sounded from all
over the water near the Mafalda.
The captain of the Mosella maneuv-
cred his ship close to the fast flood
ing Mafalda so as to be near when
she sank.
Searchlights Of the rescue ships
illuminated the scene. They re-
vealed many people clinging I'd
pieces Of wreckage and life preserv-
ers. Around them floated many
who were dead.
Sailors Killed by Blast
Suddenly the Mafalda sank, re-
vealing the great hole blown in her
side by the boiler explosion. Many
of the engine crew and probably
others were believed to have been
killed by the explosion for mutilated
bodies were seen floating on the
waters. Masses Of wreckage Of all
kinds dotted the sea.
Many survivors were in the water
waving their arms and shouting in
desperation for aid. "They chung to
the lifeboats in veritable clusters,
threatening to swamp them by their
weight" the log of the Mosella re-
corded.
The British stea mer Avelon,
which reached the scene 10 hours
after the boat sank, observed empty
lifeboats and broken spars, but not
a single human.
Survivors reported that, in the
launching of the Mafalda's boats,
many were overturned by excessive
loads. AS the boats were launched
the passengers ran panic stricken
about the decks, seeking means Of
salvation.
The rescue ships cruised about the
scene of the disaster for hours after
the Mafalda sank until their COM
manders were convinced all that
could be done in the matter of rescue
had been done.

SOUTHERN MARYLAND
PLANS 1894 EXHIBIT
300th Anniversary of Settlement
of St. Marys County to Be Cele-
brated-Park Proposed.

BALTIMORE, December IA
move for an exhibition in Is. to cele-
brate the 3O0th anniversary of the
settlement 70 ST. Marys County was
launched at the annual dinner Of the
Southern Maryland Society here this
week.
The plan was proposed by Swepson
Earle, State conservation commission
er. who also advocated the location OF
a State park in Southern Maryland.
Mr.. Earle said such a park would
be a place of beauty not only for
automobiists. but would serve for chill
dren in the Summer as means OF
escape from the heat OF the congested
sections of the city. He suggested
that the society lead in movement
to promote a tercentenary exhibition
at ST. Marys City in 1884, when the
tercentenary of the founding of Mary
land will be celebrated. and that the
buildings which were situated in that
old city be reproduced for the event.
Development of American homes in
southern Maryland also was proposed
by Mr.. Earle.
