Tho missing officer waa Second Engineer Gatley, Eighty-six survivors rescued from the tea and huddled on the Nantucket, which was limping along with a crumpled bow toward Norfolk today, are the only ones which know the story of how the two big ships, picking their way through a blanket of fog, one bound 'north, the other bound south, met with a craati near the Winter quarter shoal lightship. "S. O. 8." calls reaching out to the coast stations started every available agency of rescue Into action, but not soon enough. HI iika Like t Plummet. While the Nantuckot backed off, low ered boats nti began sweeping the misty sea with its searchlight, the Monroe, tta passengers pitched out of berths in night clothes, sank like a plummet. in tha swirling vortex of tho sinking ship men shouted and women screamed through the mist, The Monroe went down wo quickly that thero was little time for launching boats, and It Is be lieved that tho only refugees were those saved at once' by the Nantucket Tho lost had scarcely a chance to re alise that death was on them before they were struggling In the sea. The doomed passengers on the Monroe, fast asleep in their cabins when the two vessels came together, .went down to death with only tlmo for a shriek of despair. Only those kept awake by the anortlng slrem that walled their useless warnings through the fog knew when the vessels struck. The rest, thrown from thctr btiths by the force of the collision, heavy with sleep, had barely time to struggle to the deck of the sinking vessel before the were plunged into the water. Not tea minutes Intervened between the time the bow of the Nantucket crashel Its way Into the side of the Dominion liner ani the time the latter slid under the waves. Tho eighty-six rescued were lifted fromj me ivy nitr nuer ineir vessel naa gone down. Both vessels had quieted down for the CO. night hours before the collision, Captain Berry, on the bridge of the Nantucket, and the lookout had tho dock to them selves aa the vessel slowly skimmed through the fog and mist. Captain John son kept the 'bridge of the Monroe. Thus with tho dense fog enfolding the heaving sea the two vessels felt their way toward each other In tho dark. As 'the Nantucket stuggercd back after the shock Captain Berry swung out hl3 searchlight and dimly tho bulk of tho settling Mpnroe loomed up through the fog. Uncertain as to the fate of his own vessol, he ordered out tho life boats. Lost from View In the fog they began tho work of rescue. Guided only by the shrieks of the drowning the boats picked up the survivors. When tho searchlight's faint glow brought to view no more struggling figures and when tho shouts of the lifeboat crow brought no answer tng shouts from the sea, tho task was given up. Victims Suffer Intensely. With Its saloon crowded with drenched and suffering men and women the Nan tucket turned Its prow southward. Soon It fell In with the Dominion liner Hamil ton, answering the cry of distress. Con voyed by tho Hamilton, the Nantucket is making Its way slowly to Norfolk. It will he met hy the revenue cutter Onon daga and was expected In port late to day. Captain Johnson, aboard the Nan tucket, began making up a list of the Monroe's rescued to be sent by wireless to Norfolk. The shock and exposure proved a grave trial to many of those saved. Wireless messages report a number In a serious condition. The Monroe la tho first steamer lost by tho Old Dominion line during the halt century It has been In operation. Tho steamer was valued at approximately fWO.000 and tta cargo as much more, maU ir.g tho loss, exclusive of lives, about N.000.000. Mrs. T, J.
