the North German Lloyd steamship Elbe.
which sailed from Bremen yesterday, had
been run down off that place, and that
only 19 persons out of 350 were saved.

Lloyds later received a dispatch from
Lowostoft, dated 6:15 p. m. today. saying:

The Elbe was sunk in the North sea aft-
er having been in collision with another
steamer. Twenty people who were on
board of her have been landed here by fish-
ing smacks. The persons saved include the
second officer and pilot. It is feared that
the loss of life" is enormous.

Great Excitement.

The receipt of this alarining news caused
great excitement everywhere, as it soon
became known, through the ticker of the
Exchange Telegraph company, in the clubs
and places of public resort, and the agents
of the company here and others were soon
at work doing everything possible to ob-

 
 

THE ELBE.

tain the facts in the case. It was believed
that the El be had about 350 persons, pas-
sengers and brew, on board. and although
the first reports had it that only about 20
persons were saved, it was hoped that the
loss of life could be shown to be exagger-
ated, and that the steamer with which the
Elbe collided would eventually be shown

to have saved a number of the people who

were on board the Elbe. But as time pass-
ed and no additional news was obtainable
here, people became convinced that the
first stories must be correct, and that the
splendid North German Lloyd steamship
Elbe hadgone down withIthe loss of over
300 souls.
The Lost Steamship.

The North German Lloyd steamship Elbe
was built at Glasgow in 1881, and she has
been running since her construction in the
regular North German Lloyd service be-
tween New York and Bremen, by way of
Southampton, although she was for a time
in the North German Lloyd service be-
tween New York and Mediterranean ports.

The Elbe was a first class steamship of
over 4, 500 gross tonnage. She was com-
manded by Captain von Gossell and had a
full and efficient crew on board. The
steamship had accommodation for 120 first
cabin passengers, 180 second cabin pas-
sengers and 900 steerage passengers.

The Elbe was built by the Fairchilds
and was considered a stanch and good sea
boat. She was four mast-ed, had 5,600 in—
dicated horsepower, which gave her a speed
of from 16% to 17 knots. and she had tWO
smokestacks. Her water line length was
418 feet, her beam was 44 feet and the
depth of her hold was 36 feet 5 inches.

The Ellie’s Oflicers.

The following is the list; of the officers
of the Elbe: Captain. Von Gossel; chief
ofi‘icer, G. Wilhelms; chief engineer, A.
Neussell; purser, W. Louhmullcr; phy-
sician. Dr. A. Reichardt; chief steward, H.
Pfchunder.

The News In New York.

NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-—The.flrst tidings
of disaster to the Elbe which reached the
North German Lloyd offices In this city
were carried there by representatives of
the press who had been advised of the loss
of the steamship. The first information in-
dicated that the Elbe had been sunk ofl
Lowestoft, and working upon this bulle-
tin the steamship people immediately got
down their marine and other maps and
soon located the fishing town of Lowestoft.

“Why, how is that? She was ofl there
when she left Bremen yesterday and is
due to sail from Southampton today?”
queried one of the steamship officials as he
bent low over the line of the English coast
of the big map before him, measuring with
a lead pencil the distance from Bremen to
Lowestoft.

No one was able to answer the inquiry
at that moment, and officials and clerks in
the first interest and anxiety of the occa-
sion stood about looking into each other’s
faces and wondering how it could have
happened. One of the steamship officials,
when asked for names of those who were
on board, stated that they were not sure
of haying the names of any of the Elbe’s
passengers.

No Names Obtainable.

“The way of it is just this, ” explained
the official. “This is a dull season of the
year. Emigration from the other side is
extremely light. Our tickets. sold on the
other side are good on any of our boats,
and if there were a hundred tickets out,
for instance, and the Elbe were sailing to-
day, while we might have the names here
of those who purchased tickets we should
be unable to state which holders of tickets
good on any of our boats had embarked
on the Elbe or any other boat sailing at a
stated time. Thus it is that we are unable
to give any guess as to the passenger list
on the Elbe. ”

The steamship officials readily gave all
information they had rcgardin g the dimen-
sions, record and capacity of the Elbe. One
of the officials present remarked. . as he
closed one of the large atlases which he
had been poring over, that he could not
believe that the Elbe had been lost. Up to
half past 3 the company had received no
direct tidings of the disaster from their
correspondents from the other side, and it
was not until an hour after the press had
received news that even the Maritime Ex-
change in this city were advised of the re-
ported disaster.

the story of attacks by the strikers. The
green motormen had no stories of assault
to tell and said that everything was quiet
along their lines. I
While the outrages committed by the
strikers were few in number, the police
were kept on the jiimp in the early hours
of the morning, and they did such good
work that Commissioner Welles is satisfied
that they can control thesituation. Spe~
cial Officer Ward arrested Fred Brandt at
Nostrand and Atlantic avenues for throw-
ingstones at a Nostrand avenue car.
~ About the only serious assaulbon a green
hand was that of which J ohn' Wlegel of
Fifty-eighth street and Third avenue was
the victim. Wiegel is a motorman and was
caught by the strikers, dragged along the
street and severely kicked and beaten.
Wiegel’s injuries were so serious that a
call for an ambulance was sent in. and his
wounds were dressed by the surgeon.
A Plan to Block Traffic.

Hugh Callaghan of 152 Eagle street had
a. plan to block traffic, but it failed. and he
was placed under arrest. Patrolman Bris-
sen of the Seventh precinct caught him
driving an iron wedge into the switch at
Franklin and India streets. Had he fin-
ished his work he would have caused con—
siderable delay. but the Officer arrested him
in the nick of time and took him to the
station house.

The alleged infernal machine, which re-
posed in a pail of water in the Seventh
precinct station house - last night, was
taken to police headquarters today and
thence to the navy yard. The bomb was
discovered by Frank Gillette in the front
yard of Dr. Walton’s residence. I At the
Greenpoint station it was found that the
alleged bomb was a glass pepper box filled
with some grayish powder. Two wires,
each about 8 feet long, ran into the pow-
der. Of course there was nothing to do
but to declare it a bomb filled with dyna-
mite, giant powder, rack—a-rock nitroglyc-
erin or some other equally destructive
substance, just what no one seems to
know. At the navy yard the bomb will
be smashed with a sledge hammer.

Major Kipp Laid Up.

Major Kipp of the Seventh regiment is
laid up at his home in New York sufi'ering
from a wound received in his leg, caused
by‘ being hit by a stone thrown by a
striker in Brooklyn. Major Kipp, who is
chief clerk of the police department, has
not yet appeared at headquarters. His phy-
sician says that the leg is in such a bad
condition that he will not be able to leave
his house for a week.

If the strikers lose, there is one last re<

. sort which they will take to do the roads

as much damage as possible. It is to boy-
cott them. One of the leaders of the strike
has this to say of the matter:

“Every Knight of Labor, every man
affiliated with a labor organization of any
sort and tens of thousands of workingmen
not connected with trades unions will boy-
cott the cars that are manned by nonunion
motormen. ” ‘

A similar boycott was once declared
against the Third Avenue Railroad com-
pany in New York, and it has never yet
been taken off officially.

Private David F. Magner of Company B
of the Twelfth regiment has begun a suit
against the Brooklyn City Railroad com-
pany for $2,000 damages for injuries re-
ceived while he was on patrol at the stable
in Myrtle and Kent avenues last Wednes-
day. Magner was struck by one of the
trolley cars, and his lips were cut and his
nose broken. He was incapacitated from
further service. He says the green motor-
man did not ring the gong and warn him.

An application was made this morning
in the Adams Street police court, Brook-
lyn, for a warrant for the arrest of Presi-
dent Benjamin F. Norton of the Atlantic
Railroad company for violation of section
529 of the laws of 1887. The application
was made by Jeremiah Desmond, James
Dwyer and George Layton. former em-
ployees of the Atlantic Avenue Railroad
company, who allege that President Nor-
ton compellcd them to work over ten hours
a day. Affidavits to this effect were made
and presented to Judge Walsh. Judge
Walsh took the papers. ‘

Judge Walsh. in the Adams Street police
court at 2:15 this afternoon, signed war-
rants for theIarrest of President Norton of
the Atlantic Avenue railroad and General
Superintendent Quinn for the violation of
the state law.

Judge Gaynor granted an order to show
cause why a mandamus should not be is-
sued to compel President Norton to oper-

‘ ate the Atlantic avenue lines.

The Hearing In Albany.

‘ ‘ ALBANY, Jan. 31.—-The scene in the
great Brooklyn trolley strike was shifted,
from the City of Churches to the state capi-
tal. The office of Attorney General Han-
cock resembled a meeting room of the
strike leaders, who had come to apply to
the attorney general to begin action
against the Brooklyn Heights Railroad
company to show cause why the charter of
the company should not be annulled.

The hearing began at 10 o'clock. Law-

. yer Trull requested an adjournment in or-

der that the trolley company might pre-
pare itself more adequately to answer the
charges contained in the petition of the
strikers. He said that the company did
not receive notice of the hearing until too
late to answer. . .

Mr. Dennison, in outlining the case of
the strikers, denied that he represented
them. He said that the attorney general
had no authority to pass upon the merits
of the controversy and» its employees, ex-
cept so far as the result of that controversy
affected the interests of the public. He
reviewed the history of the strike and said
that the company was well provided with
adequate means and protection to operate
its lines to the satisfaction of the public.
It had signally failed to do it.

The attorney general, after hearing the
argument of the attorney for the roads,
adjourned the matter to next Monday aft-
Ornoon. .
