Among them was a big contingent of Salvation Army mem- bers on their way to the international conference in England. The first news of the disaster came in a telegram from the Marconi sta- tion at Father Point. It announced the fact of the collision and the fact that the Empress was sinking. The liner’s S. 0. S. were responded to by the Eureka, a Canadian govern- ment steamer, and by the mail tender stationed at Father Point. They put out at once, full steam ahead, and ran to the giant’'s assistance. PICK UP NEARLY FOUR HUNDRED SURVIVORS It was these two craft that found afloat the few lifeboats launched from the stricken ship and picked up the survivors they contained. Three hun- dred and thirty-nine were saved by the Tady Evelyn and sixty by the Eureka. Amog those saved was Cap- tain H. G. Kendall of the Empress. Twenty-two of the rescued died from their injuries after reaching shore. Most of the first class passengers perished. The water that poured into the ship's engine room caused an explo- sion and this forced many to jump. Among those in the first cabin were Sir Henry Seton Karr, a noted En, lish lawyer and big game hunter; Laurence Irving, son of the late Sir Henry Irving, his wife, Mabel Hack- nd two other members of Mr. Irving’s company, Mr. and Mrs. Har- old Neville. Of a party of 140 Canadian Salva- tion Army members on board only twenty were rescued. So quickly did the Empress sink that those passengers fortunate enough to get into the lifeboats found themselves garbed only in their night clothes. No baggage was saved. SURVIVORS OF DISASTER SUFFER GREAT HARDSHIPS The condition of the survivors was pitiable. Some had broken arms and tlegs and all had suffered terribly. L. E. Gossetin, a prominent lawyer from Montreal, saved himself by clinging to a raft. When the rescue ships docked at Rimouski the station plat- form was converted into a hospital and the townspeople, bringing food and clothing, united to aid the suf- ferers. Twelve bodies with faces covered lay side by side on the wharf. They were passengers who had made the lifeboats, but who were fatally hurt. The Empress of Ireland was valued at $2,000.000, and with her cargo, val- ued at $250,000, was fully insured. At low tide the top of her funnels could be seen. She is lying in the channel. 1t is thought by navigators that it may be possible to raise her. At present the wreck is a menace to navigation. In the purtial list of survivors avail- able there appeared the name of only ‘one saloon passenger, that of C. W. G. Henderson, address not given. VOLIVA SHOCKED BY MILL CITY STYLES.
