LoxpoN, November zo.--The Dutch steamer W. A. Shollen, which left Rotterdam yesterday for New York, was sunk bya col- lision with the steamer Rosa Ma- ria at 11 o'clock last night ten miles off Dover. The Shollen carried a comple- ment of 230 passengers with the srew. The steamer Ebro rescued ninety of the crew and passengers and landed them at the Sailors’ Home Dover. One hundred and forty of the prssengers are missing. One passenger and child of the party brought to Dover were found dead from exposure. It is hoped that passing vessels have rescued the missing ones. Boats have left Dover bound in all directions for the purpose of saving life and property if possible. The Rosa Maria is anchored off Ramsgate with her bowstove. Up to 5 p. m. twenty-two bodies have been land- ed at Dover. WAKENED ONLY TO DIE Immediately after the shock was | felt, the Schollen's passengers, all of whom had retired for the night, rushed on the deck in their night gowns. The boats were promptly ordered to be lowered, but it was found that only two were available. The three others were useless and not lowered. were Water rushed | swiftly through the hole in the bow and a terrible scene ensued. The panic stricken passengers ut- tered piercing shrieks and many fell | upon their knees and prayed aloud | Little children clung to their moth- "ers, who themselves were shrieking | with terror, but the steamers offi- | cers were cool and self-possessed, tand remained on the bridge to the anday at 10.30 4. | last.

All those who had put on life | belts floated and were rescued *by boats from the steamer Ebro, which until 5 o'clock in minutes | cruised around the morning. Many of the rescul ed lost their wives, husbands, broth} ers, and sisters. The survivors | weres supplied with clothes and {everything possible was done to ensue their comfort, 132 DROWNED OR MISSING, the latest state | ment there were 210 persons on the Schollen, leaving 132 ’ { board | drowned and missing. SEARCHING FOR BODIES The body of River Bell has been |identified. No bodies were] recov- during this morning because with the ebb. Darkness prevented the recovery of more bodies but many boats and tugs have been put to sea on the ehance of pick ing up others in the morning Many of those whose bodies have been recovered look as though they had been frozen to death. - The Sham of the World Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage cys ! “Ouelof the great trials} of the news paper profession is that its members are compelled to see more of the shams of the world than any other profession. we —— after day, go all the weaknesses of the world—all the vanities that want to to be reaped, all the mistakes that want to be corrected oll the dull | speakers that want to be thought elo. quent, all the meanness that wants to | get its warce noticed “gratis” in the editorial columns ia order to save the tax of the advertisiog columns, all men who want Lo beset right who pever were right; all the cracked. braived philosophers with stories a® long as their hair and as gloomy as their finger-naile, in mourning because bereft of soap—all the bores who come in to stay five minutes, but talk fice hours. Through the editorial and reportorial rooms all the follies and shams of the world are seen day after day, and the tempiation is not to believe in God, man or woman. It is no surprise to me that in this pro fession there are some skeptical men; I only wonder that newspaper wen believe anything. nod $1, at J, Ze'ler & Son, ——————————— Items of Interest. in A water famine is threatened Reading.
