The Trenten and Vandalla, being forth
out from shore then the ether ships, wan
almostebaoured by the blinding Batata. Tha
veaieia meat plainly visieie wara tna jseer,
tba Adler. and l be Nlpsle. Thar wara
very cl 0.8 together and euly a taw yards off
irein tne reer. tub nine gunrjeat ceer waa
making a desperate struggle for Ufa, bat
rery moment the wai draws nearer aad
aeaier tba reef. Ber deem waa certain.
Suddenly she ebet forward salt miking a
last struggle te escape destruction. Tba
current, however, bore ber efl te tba right
and ber prow atruek tba pert quarter of tba
Nlpile. Tne abnek carried away aarerai
feet of the N I pale's rail and one beat Tba
Eber tben fell back and foaled with the
Oigs, bnt neither vessel aaalalned mneh
damage by the oelllilon.
Tha two collisions, hewever, bad ohecked
the K bet's progress and abe aeemed nnabla
te make any further effort te save herself.
Hhe swung around broadside te tha wind
acd drilled slowly toward the reef. Awful
seu broke evor the little vessel and forced
her en te di s'ruotlen. In a moment a
great wave rolled In toward Shere; tha
Eeer was lifted high en Us crest and carried
brcadslde en the reef. She came down
with awfel foree, and In an Instant there
wss net a vestige te be seen. She atruek
tslrly upon ber bottom, relled ever toward
the epen sea, and disappeared from view.
Every timber of tbe gunboat must have
been shattered, and half the pcer wretehes
aboard of ber crushed te death before they
felt tne waters doling abate their heal a.
Hum: red s of peepln were en the beach by
this time and tbe work of destruction bad
occurred In full view or ttem all. They
teod for a moment appalled by the awful
scene, and then a cry et horror arose from
the lips of every man who bad seen nearly
a hundrr d of his fellow creaturea perish In
an Instant. Tben, with one accord they all
rushed te the water's edge nearest the point
wbere the Eberbad feundered. The natives
rn Inte the surf far beyond the point where
a white' mm could bave lived and steed
walling te save any peer ereature who
might rise from the water. There was no
thought of the war between Germany and
Samoa. There was no Mgn of enmity
agalcst tbe people who carried en" their
king and banlhttd him en a lonely Isle a
thousand miles from his native land. The
savage forget the oppresilen wnlca a olvll elvll
Izcid people plaeed upon him, and be new
held out his hand te save a human life,
oaring llttle whether It waa a friend or a
fee. There were six offleers and seventy
men en the Eber when she strnek the reef,
and et the e tlve clUceia and sixty, six men
were lest.
Tbe Adler had been swept across the bay,
being for a moment In collision with the
Olga. She was new close te tha reef, about
two hundred yards west of the point where
the Kber struck. Like the E ber, she waa
approaching ber deem broadside en. In
hall an hour she was lifted en top of the
reel and turned completely ever en her
aide. Nearly every man was thrown Inte
the water.
Fortunately, however, the Adler waa
thrown se far upon the reef that when abe
lamed evor en ber side nearly the entire
bull was out of water. Of the 130 cflleers
and men aboard, 20 men were drowned or
killed when the steamer capsized.
Just alter the Adler struck, the attention
et every ene was directed toward the Nlp Nlp
aeo. Hhe was standing off the reef with her
bead te the w lnd, but the three anchors
which she had out at the time were net
holding.
The elga was bearing down en the Nip
sle, and the latter vessel wai trying te
avoid oelllslon with the German when abe
atruek the schooner Lilly. The schooner
sank out of sight In a moment. There were
three men aboard of her, and one waa
saved.
thk mrsie's lirtAYE STRUGGLE.
The Nlpsle get well way from tbe reef
after she struck the Lilly, and her men had
attached a hawser te a heavy eight-Inch
rlflj en the forward deek ana were
preparing te heist the gun overboard te
assist ber anchors, when the Olga again
bore down upon ber. The Olga struck the
Nlpsle amldsblp; ber bowsprit passed ever
the part side of tbe Nlpsle and, alter carry
lng away a beat and splintering the rail,
came In contact with tbe smokestack. Tbe
smokestack was struck fairly In the eantre,
and fell te the deck with a crash like
thunder.
It was dinieult te realize for a moment
what bad happened. Great confusion
occurred; the crew believed that the steamer
waa selne: down, and men ran up the
rigging ler safety. The offleers allayed
their fears as well as they were able. The
Iren smokestack rolled from aide te aide
with every movement of the vessel, and
men ran te keep clear et its track. Heavy
blocks were dually plaeed under it, but by
that time It was found tbst tbe NIpHe bad
awung around and was again approaching
tbe reef.
Having lest her smokestack she was un
able te keep her steam powerup and many
of tbe men bseame deraeraltzsd and refused
te listen te orders. Capt Mullan saw that
any further attempt te aave bis vessel would
be useless, se be gave the order te beaeh
ber. One anchor was slipped, and the few
pounds of steam whleh oeuld still be used
Kept tbe vessel In deep water until she had
cleared the ecd or tbe reef. Bexes of aalt
perk and ether inflammable material were
thrown into the lurnacea te keep up tba
flrea.
Her head was put around te the shore and
aba had aatralgbtcourseefabundred yards
m ihn mndv beaeh in front et the American
consulate, wbere ber bow stock faat about
fifteen yards from tbe water's edge.
Orders were given te lower two beats.
Sailors Jumped Inte one beat, bnt the 'alia
did net work properly, and before the beat
waa lowered one end dropped. The men
were thrown Inte the water and drowned.
The ether beat, containing Dr. E Z. Derr,
tha ahlp's surgeon, and half a dczsn sick
men, waa lowered In safety, but it capsized
before It reached shore, but all were saved
by tbe natives. Under orders et tbelr chiefs
the Bameans managed te get hawsers passed
from tbe ship te tbe shore.
Tbe aeene was one of Intense excitement
Tha seas broke uperrthe stem of the Nlpsle
with awful foree, and It aeemed as If the
vessel would be shattered te pleees before
the men en ber deeka oeuld be saved. Tha
waves were rolling high en tha beach, and
the undertow waa se strong that the natives
narrowly escaped being washed out Inte
the bay. The terrible foree of tbe wind
can hardly be Imagined. The rain con
tinued te pour and clouds et Hying sand
grew thicker every moment,
"a Mva the rear of the wind and waves
could be heard tbe teIcm of tbe officers
abeutlng te the men en deek, mingled with
tbe cries and singing et the Bameans, as
they steed battling agalcst tbe surf, risking
tbelr Uvea te save the American sailors.
They were all aaved by means of these
ropes and tbe kelp of the natives.
WRECK OF THE YAKDALIA.
About 10 o'elook In the morning theexalte
ment en shere, which bad quieted a little,
nommeneed te grew mere intense, aa tbe
Vandalla and Calliope were seen In a most
dangerous pcsHlen, and a collision between
the two veaaela aeemed Inevitable. They
were both bearing back agalnat tbe reef
near a point where the wreek of tha Adltr
iir. Tbe Callleue waa nearer tbe shore.
and ber bow waa close te tha stem of tha
Vandallr.
The siaca between the men. of war w
nextseen te closealtogether, when suddenly
the ureat Iren prow of the Englishman arose
high In the air en the crest of an enormous
wave and eame down with full foree upon
tbe pett quarter et Ihe Vandalla. The crash
waa awful. The Jlbboem of tbe Calliope
waa carried away and beavv timbers of tha
Vandalla were abivered. Every man.whe
steed upon the peep deck of tha Vandalla
waa thrown te his feet by the shock. A
hole bad been tern below tha rail aad tba
water rushed into tha eabla.
OeptihUi JKwe, of tkt UUiOff, Ua fa
orders te let go all aeehdra aad triad te
Bteaaa eat te sea. She seemed te make her
headway at first taeh by mob, but kerapaed
gradually increased until It became evident
ana eeald clear the harbor. Aa aha pssaad
abreast of tha Trenten a great shout want
up freea ever four hundred ansa aboard
th neaahin. aad three heart- cheats war
given for tba Calliope. Three eheara for the
Trenten and the American flag waa tha
newer that cam back across tha angry
watera.
Oa beard tba Vandalla, Llnt J. W.
Carlln, executive offleer. waa practically la
charge of tba vessel, aa Capt Boheonmakar
bad bean thrown across tha cabin tha Bight
before aad eerereiy leiured.
Capt Behoeamsksr aad Lieut, Carlln saw
It waa useleaa te make aay further attempt
le aave tha ship, and aa bar enginea were
net BewerfaU aaeagh teataam out te sea, aa
tba Calliope had dena, they determined
te bsaeh the vessel, Tha ship straggled
along tha adga of tha real for a quarter of a
mil and went ashore about forty yarda
from the Nlpale, L bat owing te greater
draught, aaaea farther front tba shore.
There waa no means of reaching the vessel
from the shore and the pcaUiba became
very dangerous. She settled until her crew
ware driven te tbe rigging and many be
coming exhausted by the long atrnggl
war washed off and drowned while ethers
managed te awlm te the Nlpsle and war
aaved. Berne atreag awlaamete war ear
rled of! by tba enrrent J net before they get
within reach or tha Bemoans "and were
awapt out te sea. Many thrilling and des
perate atrugdee for Ufa took plaee In full
view of the orewd en eber.
THK OAT.T.AMT TBKXTON.
About 4 o'clock In tha afternoon the
position of tha Trenten and lb Olga had
ehanged and they were almost en tha reef,
near the point where the Eber struck. Tha
Trenten waa coming down upon the Olga
and a collision seemed Inevitable. The
condition of the flagship waa pitiable. At
10 o'elook In tbe morning her rndder and
propeller had been carried awsy by fouling
with a piece of wreckage, Taa shock was
se great that the pilot wheel en the deck
waa whirled like lightning and every spoke
In It waa broken. Twe men wbe were at
the wbed at the lime wera thrown vio
lently te the deck and one had his leg
broken.
Te add te the dlsoemOtnre of the steamer
the water poured In through tbe hawae
pipes, and flooded the deeka
Efferta were made te close tba pipes, but
tbe foree of the water was se strong that tba
coverings wera blown tfl. Tha water
rushed in en tbe berth deoks,feund Its way
te the hatches, and poured down into the
fir room.
Aa aoen aa tbe steam gave ent the tnfzzan
atermsall was set with the greatest dial dial
eulty. Oil waa also poured overboard, bnt
It bad no effect In stilling the waves. The
Trenten was msteejvred In thle way all
the time, and euoeeeded In keeping dear
of tbe reef until tbe middle et the afternoon
when the foree of the wind and waves bera
ber down almcst upon It She became
broadslde en toward the reef, and It seemed
as If tbe great vessel, with her 450 "men,
was lest Lieut. Brown ordered vnty
man Inte tbe pert rigging, a j that a compact
mass of humanity oeuld be nsed aa sails,
and at tha aame time kept the weight of the
vessel en Ibe side next te the storm. This
novel experiment waa all that saved tbe
Trenten from deatrnotlen. The wind
struck against tbe men In the rigging
and toreed tba vessel ent Inte the bay
again.
Hhe remained there only for a short time,
hewever.and aoen commenced te drift back
against the Olga, whleh was still standing
off from the reef and holding up against the
storm better tban any ether vessel la the
harbor had done.
Suddenly the slats and stripes were seen
firing from the gaff of tba Trenten.
Previous te this no vessel In the harbor hsd
raised a flag, aa tbe storm waa ragtag se
furiously at sunrlf e that that osremeny waa
neglected. It seemed new aa If the gallant
ship knew she was deemed, and bad
determined te go down with tba flag
of ber country floating above the
storm. The stern of the Trenten waa near,
lng the Otga's bow, and Captain Ven
Erbard believing that sure deatrnotlen was
upon blm, let goblsanehora and attempted
te steam away. He was tee late, however,
ferjuat aa the Olga oemmenced te move
against the wind her bow oeme In contact
with tbe starboard quarter of the flagship.
The Olga'a bowsprit and figurehead were
carried away, and the heavy timbers en
the Trenten's quarters were shivered,
several beats were tern from tbelr davits,
and the Amerlean 11 ig whleh bad floated
from tbe Trenten waa curled away and
fell te tbe deck of tbe Olga.
Fortunately tbe vejselsdrtrted apart after
the oelllslon and the Olga ateainud ahead
toward tha mud lists In the eastern parts
of tbe harbar. Captain Ven Erhard had
determined te run ber aground ; her en
gines were worked te their fullest eapaelty
and It was only a moment before tbe
Olga'a prow struek and the steamer lsy
Imbedded la the soft mud In the safest part
of the bay. Ne life waa lest
MANY MKN IN THK RlQalNO.
A new danger new arose. The Trenten
was sure te strike the Vandalla, and te
these en shore it seemed that tbe huge hull
Of tbe fligsblp would crush the Vandalla te
Pieces and threw tbe hundred men still
flinging te tbe rigging Inte the water.
Fvsemly the last faint ray of daylight
faded away and night eame down neon the
awful scene. The storm was still raging
with as much fury aa at any time daring
the day. Tne peer creaturea who had been
clinging for hours te the rigging et the
Vandalla were bruised and bleeding, but
they held en with tbe desperation of men
who hang by a thread between life and
death. Tbe ropes bad cut the flesh en
their arms and legs, and their eyes wera
blinded by.tbe salt sprsy which swept ever
them. Weak and exhausted ss they were
they would be unable te atand tbe terrible
strain much longer.
They looked down upon tbe angry watera
below tbem and knew that they had no
atrength left te battle with the waves. Tbelr
nnatneuraeemea te ee upon mem. Tne
great black hull et the Trenten oeuld be
aeen through the darkness almost ready te
crueh into the stranded Vandalla and grind
ner te stoma.
Suddenly a shout was borne aoress tbe
waters. The Trenten was cheering the
Vandalla. The sound of 150 volete broke
upon the air and waa heard above tbe rear
of the tempest "Three cheers for tha
Vandalla" waa the cry that warmed the
hearts et tbe dying men in the rigging.
The shout died away upon tbe storm and
there arose from the quivering masts of
the snnken ship a response se feeble that It
was soareely beard upon shore. The men
who fell they were loeklngdeath in the faee
aroused themselves te the effort and united
in a faint cheer for the flagship. These who
were standing en ahere listened In silence,
for that feeble cry waa tba saddest they had
aver beard. Every heart was melted te
pity. "Ged help them" was passed from
one man te another.
The sound et musle next eame across the
water. The Irenton's bsnd was playing
The Star Spangled Banner." The tboua tbeua
and men en sea and shore bad never before
beard atralna of musle at such a time as thla.
An Indescribable feellna came ever the
hundred Americana en the beaeh wbe
listened te the notes et tbe national anthem
mingled with the howl et tbe storm. Fer a
moment only were they silent, and then
they broke forth with a cry that reached
each of tbe struggling men en the rigging
et tbe Vandalla. Men who bad exhausted
every means during the whole et that awful
day et rendering some assistance te tbelr
comrades new aeemed inspired te greater
efforts.
The oelllslon et tbe Trenten and Van
dalla, which every one thought would
erush the latter Teasel te pleees, proved te
be tbe salvation cf the men In tbe rigging.
Notwithstanding the tremendous force of
tbe wavea tbeTrenten dragged back slowly,
and when her stem finally atruck tbe aide
of tha Vandalla. there was no shock and
I she gradually swung around broadside te
tbesunken ship. As toen aa tbe vessels
touched the men in tne mizzsa rigging

The men escaped Just In time, for aa tbe

K. Mattin, et Lancaster, appears new with
earmarks te bla candidacy very mncb as
though Quay bad rut them. Martin
Is a Lancaster politician of the sUurjoh sUurjeh

battle in 1885 for etate treasurer
against Jamea A. MeDavitt there and
turned up four out of the Old Guard's six
delegate for the Beayer man. In 1882 he
led tbe Independent rscket tbere and has a
penchant for aetlng that way, but Ibis Is, at
present, a kind el recommendation with
Qnay, who has tied all th old reoaleltrant
lament te him In th four oernora et th

he reasons that the element that can kick
can fight and Quay levea a geed fighter.
