LIVERPOOL, March 7. Th British

which wa la collision with and tank tb
Red 8tar tin steamer Waesland Wednesday
alght about forty miles southwest of Holy
Lead and which wa towed to thl port
early thl morning by the tug sent la
search of It, haa a great hole In Us bows.
On of th rescued passenger of th Waes
land, who wa on board Harmonldes, ld
Waesland wa run Into amidships In a
fog at midnight and sank half an hour
afterward. It boiler bursting a It went
down. The report that only two of tb
passenger of Waesland, a. man and a
child, lost their lives, appears to be con
firmed. In addition, on woman wag Injured.
Some of Waesland' boat wer In tb
water a couple of hour before, owing to
th fog, they could get alongside Harmon
ldes. When Harmonldea arrived here It
deck wer crowded with half-clad pssn
gers of Waesland, whose pale and haggard
face told th story of their trying expert
ences. Bo hurried wa the departure of the
pMsengers from the linking ship that In
some case they were only covered by
blanket and handkerchief wer their ofily
headgear.
When th disaster occurred Wednesday
night the two vessels wer steaming alowly
off lbs coast of the Island of Anglesey.
Harmonldea crashed head-on Into Waesland
and backed away, but one again struak tit
then sinking ship, making a great gap in It
side. Though the sea wa perfectly smooth
the denseness of the foe, added to thl ter
ror of the passenger of Waesland.
Women aa Chlldrea First.
The women rushed on deck soreamlng,
but were soon reassured by th officer.
The boat wer quickly lowered, but th
operation resulted in two fatalities. Th
end of on of the lifeboat slipped from It
davit and precipitated on of tta occupant
Into th water. A steerags passenger, Ed
ward Dangerfleld of Kansas, struck hi
head against the boat fittings and was In
stantly killed knd Elsie Waett, II year
old, th daughter of Rev. A. Waett, wa
drowned. Tho other person who wer In
th boat wero picked up. Th bravery of
the passengers, many of whom wero Bean
dinavlan emigrants, wa exemplary. Prece
dence wa given to the women and children.
A th last boats wer leaving th fast
sinking ship, whose decks were already
awash, ' an explosion announced that It
boiler had burst, andforty minute after
th first Impact Waesland gav a mighty
lurch and disappeared beneath th waves,
sinking about midway between Holyhead
and Tuskar light. Nothing wa raved ex
cept what the passengers and crew wore.
The boats containing the passenger wer
for a time separated, owing to th tog, but'
eventually they all reached th sides 6f
Harmonldea and the survivors wer taken
on board that vessel, wher everything pon
slbls wa don for their comfort, A pilot
boat met Harmonldea off the Island . of
Anglesey and communicated th new of
th disaster to persons ashore, with the
result that tugs wer dispatched to search
for Harmonldea and aocompanied -the

Harmonldes' stem and bow plate were

lous that It escaped sinking. It alio has a
deep dent In it port aide.
Offlcer Describes Seea.
An officer of Waesland, In aa Interview,
gav a graphlo description of th lot ef
th steamer. He said:
I aaw the whole affair. I wa lata In
turning In, aa the night wa foggy, and wa
naturally apprehensive. Praotlcally all
th passenger had retired. I wa taking
a last look at th weather And In ao doing
peered over the ship's aid when, without
th slightest warning, ther cam a fearful
crash which mad Waesland stagger from
stem to-stern.
'My God, w ar struck!' I shouted.
Then there loomed right over our ship'
bow th ship which had run Into us. It
waa terrifying, of course. ,W Instantly
recognized th peril. Th darknesa at that
tlm waa Impenetrable, but there wa no
mistaking th terrible consequences of such
an Impact. Tb nose of Harmonldea ap
peared to have eaten right Into our aid,
We were going very slow, with no more
speed than waa necessary to keep headway
W wer struck at rlght-anglea, a tre
mendous hoi wa mad aad for a moment
th stem of Harmonldes waa literally In
Id our ship.
A. rush of exalted people from all part
of th ship Immediately ensued. Th pa.
sengers tumbled up. Just a they had re
tired for th night Th men, women and
children wer In tholr nightdresses. Ia a
tew Instances th passengers had thrown
a shawl or blanket over tholr shoulder.
Terror and bewilderment reigned tor a few
moment, but th passenger gradually
ranged themselves la groups about th
deck, wher they wer best sheltered, and
th crew worked lik clockwork la getting
out the boat. Th only exception to th
good behavior of th passengers wa la th
case of a aaloon passenger, who rushed
hither and thither, calling In turn en
heaven and earth to rescus him. Fortunately
the other passengers wero not affected by
this man's pitiable mental agony, but wer
quietly and methodically marshalled Into
the boat.
Kiperleaee Waa Trying.
"Th experience In the small boats wa
trying on account of th darkness and cold.
W did not know exactly wher w wer
and tor a long tlm could not discover th
whereabouts of Harmonldes, though It wa
near all th tlm. Th boats stood away
from th sinking Waesland, for fear of
being sucked down, and w could hear th
rending and tearing of lta timber aa it
seemed to break in two. Then ther wa a
terrible exploalon th boiler blew up
nil all waa ever.
"W drifted and rowed, aeemlngly twe
to three hours, when we finally got ia touch
with Harmonldes. Ws had no difficulty la
getting oa board. All our effect went to
the bottom with Waesland.
"The collision waa terrific aflko la ' the
suddeness of the shock and In th com
pleteness of ths s tester's destruction and
we think w wer most fortunate la es
caping aa w did."
P. R. Ferguson, a saloon passenger, who,
curiously enough, waa oa board Waesland
when it collided with a schooner not fat
from Philadelphia, say th principal ex
citement took the form of rushing for lit
belt. He saw a man who had ave, life
belt attached to various parts of hi
body.
A th last boat. In which Mr. Ferguson
waa aeated, was leaving the ship' side,
cries for help were heard oa board fit It
and the 4oat returned and found that two
of Waesland a crew had been left behind.
On of these men had slept throughout from
th first Impact to th last boat leaving th
perilous position when the sea water

BOMB THINGS VOII CAN'T DO.
Seemingly Simple Feats Dlfflcalt to
Accomplish.
There are many physical feats apparently
exceedingly elmpl that the ordinary person
finds Is difficult or Impossible to perform.
For Instance, a man cannot rise from a
cbalr without bending forward or putting
hi feet under the chair or outside of It.
Many a man will back himself to give an
other a start of fifty yards In a race of
100, provided the man having the start hop
all the Way. But no runner, however, swift,
can give that amount of start to en ordt
nary man. For the first five yarda they go
at practically th same pace.
Therefor th runner, to go nlnety-flve
yard while th "hopper goe forty-five,
would have to run more than twice as fast,
and It would be a weak man who could aot
hop forty-five yards- at a pace equal to
twenty second for. 100 yards, and that
would mean that, the runner, in order to
win, would have- to eat all previous
record. loi

McLeod owed not a cent, as far aa can b

man In hi position, according to General
Agent Weaver of the Merchant' Dispatch,
and none of his acquaintances know of any
troubles In-which he wss involved. A rov

mind, is assigned as the only possible
causa for his taking French leave.

to th Arcade hotel, wher he had been liv
