Stonington caine in collision with her sister ship Narragansett, of the Stonington Line, betyyeen 11:30 and 12 o’elock on Friday nighé on Long Island Sound, near by Comfiela light, which is about 100 miles distant from, this city. The Narragansett began to sink, but caught fire almost immediately, and was burned to the water’s edge. ‘The damage te the Stonington is not very great. There were about 300 or 350 passengers on board the Narragansett. Of these 250 are positively known to have been saved, leaving about 50 to 100 to be accounted for. In the way of damages caused by the disaster, and without including prosftttive damages to be “decided in‘ all likelihood in courts of law, the amount can hardly fall short of $500,000. In explanation of the un- certainty as to the number of lives lost it may be said that no complete list is kept of the passengers on board one of this class of vessels. An imperfect list is usually made out containing the names of those who have hired statervoms, and such a list was made out of THOSE ON BOARD THE ILL-FATED | Narragansett. According to the statement of the Purser, however, this list went down with the ship, and there was a kind of help- Jess ignorance shown by the Steamship Com- pany’s officers yesterday, which forbade and. frustrated inquiry as to the exact data. It seems the collision occurred while a thick heavy fog overhung the Sound, but the testi- mony seems to be overwhelming that the’ Governmental regulations for blowing fox- whistles were violated, and to this violation the disaster is attributed. An official in- quiry is, however, to be made. The incidents of the calamity, while pain- ful, are brightened by the display of acts of individual heroism, in which women played an important part. The Narragansett sailed from the pier in this city Friday ,afternoon at 4:80. o’clock. She was commanded by Capt. W. S. Young, who took her out on this occasion for the first time. It was a pleasant evening, and everything gave promise of a prosperous voyage to Stonington, where the passengers were to be transferred to cars for Providence and Boston. Upon entering the Sound a gentle swell was encountered, but there were no signs of rough weather, and the passen- gers thronged the saloon and chatted to gether. DARKNESS SETTLED UPON THE WATERS, and most of the passengers retired to their state-rooms or berths to enjoy a good night’s rest. About fifty, who had neither state- rooms nor berths, settled themselves to sleep as best they could on the sofas and easy- chairs of the saloon, and a very few lingered onthe decks, A dense fog had risenatabout 10 o’clock, and there was no fnoon. The fog- whistle was blown at intervals as the Narra- gansett plunged on her way through the water, and this, with the splashing of the wheels and the groaning of the engine, was the only noise which disturbed the stillness. The whistle was not blown as often as it should have been, or the sudden breaking up_ of that pleasantly begun voyage would never have occurred. Suddenly, just before mid- night, when the steamer was off Comfield light, opposit Clinton. and Madison, Conn., and Greenport, L. I., within seventeen miles, and two hours’ sail, of Stonington, THERE WAS A CRASH, the lights of the saloon suddenly went out, and the air was filled with the screams of frightened men and women. In ® moment vast volumes of scalding steam passed through the cabin, and the place resounded with the cries of officera giving orders and people calling for ald. For abrief season nobody knew what had hap- pened, but those on deck saw dimly a large bulk Jocked fast to the Narragansett, and the cry went out that there had been a col- lision. The Stonington, of the same fine, from Stonington to New York, had crushed through the Narragansett, her bow sticking: in the port side just forward of!the wheel- house. Several of the Narragansett’s pas- sengers were struck by the Stonington, and three state-rooms were carried completely away in the collision. The Stonington backed out as soon‘as possible, having. lost her bowsprit and ‘about three feet of her stem. i y THE PANIC WHICH FOLLOWED this rnde awakening of the passengers was terrible. Men, women, and children jumped from their beds and rushed, shrieking, from their staterooms and berths,—most of them in their night clothes. They filled the dark- ened saloon and pushed and jostled each | other in their frantic efforts to get upon the deck. The officers seem to have lost their‘
