All Bew ships sufler more or less in the same way, until their engines get into working trim, and, as will be seen from the subjoined oarratives, the Amazon was twice etopped in her courre from this very cause. The gale of wind which was blowing, the heavy sea. and the full pressure of steam, all tended to increase the danger likely thus to arise, and (he point at which the flames were first seen certainly appears to prove that they originated in the epgine-toom. Some of the survivors will probably be able to give important evidence on this point. ‘Lhe loss of life. the swamping of tho boats, and all the other horrors of this aiMicting event, are too easily ac- counted for, The position of the fire rendered it impos sible to get at the engines, in order tostop them.
