Special Dispatch to The Bee. LoNDONjAuguat 11 , 12 m. Rumors of a terrible disaster on tha lied Sea have reached this city by Renter's agency. The "Jeddah , " a steamer from Singapore , bound for Jeddah in Egypt , is reported as having foundered at the Red Sea , and over 1,000 souls are said to have perished. The lost were mostly pilgrims to Mecca. News comes In slowly. C3SFIUMATORY. Sr.eH J DIrotcl > * > The f : . LONDON , August 11 , 4 p. m. A later dispatch confirms tha news of last ni ht concerninc the sinking of the steamer "Jeddah' ' in the Red Sea , and of thoterriblo loss of life. The "Jeddah" left Singapore for Jeddah , having on bnard about 1,000 passen gersnearly all pilgrims bound on their annual pil rimajja to Mecca , a largo proportion of them bein Malays. All went as usual till the vessel arrived oH Capo Guardado which , at the entrance of the Sua of Babel Mandeb , when she foundered with the loss of all 1111 board , except the captain , hiswife , an engineer and sixteen natives , sup posed to bo part of the crew , who were picked np 'by the steamer "Sclndisand , " and landed at Aden. No further details have been received , but it is supposed that the "Jeddah" Rtruck on a rock off Cape GuardoGr , as the Capo constitutes the southern boundary of the Gulf of Aden , and prcsentH a very rugged coast line , with rocky islets. On ono of these , it 13 believed , the vessel must have struck , while attempting to pass be tween the Cape and the Island of So- cotra , a point not less than four hundred miles distant from Aden in a direct line. A largo pro portion of the yearly efflux of pil grims to Mecca take thia route , while the rest go by caravan to Jeddah , to which port the steamer was bound. The port of Mecca is situated directly weat of it , where all the pilprima who come hy sea are landed. From the fact that only the officers and a part of the crew of the ship are reported saved It is inferred that these people took the boats and put off , making no effort to do anything for their pasaen- gera.
