The Cable Steamer Struck by an Ice- berg Off Halifax. Aairax, N. 8., Juty 1, 1874. The steamer Faraday, engaged tn laying the new Atlantic cable, left Halifax a week ago, Intel- Ugence from Pictou, just received, represents that she struck an iceberg off Halifax and is a total wreck. Description of the Vessel, The steamship Faraday was built by the Messrs, Stemens Brothers, of London, for the express | work of cable laying. She was fitted and made uated on the Thames, midway between Chariton and Woolwich, and tere shipped the wire in tne first days of May. The vessel was regarded as a | Rovelty, being toe first, properly so-called, cable- | laying ship, the Hooper ana Great Eastern having been only altered and made temporarily reaay for such work. The Faraday was an trou ship of 6,000 tons register, but equal to carrying a gross burden of nearly 6,500 tons, She was 360 teet long, 37 .eet deep, and hada preaath of beam of 52teet. Her | capacity for cable storage was immense, consist- ing of three tanks, two of which were 45 feet in diameter. the otner 87 feet in diameter, and | each 27 feet deep. Five thousand tous of | cable could be thus stowed away, and it was calculated that this would be equal to about 1,600 miles of the cable taken on board. The test- | ing room was situated in the angle between the | two main tanks, so that the cable cvuid pe” changed over at pleasure without greatly disturo- | ing the paying-out arrangements, Both ends of steering gear, as well as paying-out machinery, the | motion of the vessel could be reversed at pleas- | ure, with the least possible delay to tne work in band. ‘Ihe cavie machiuery was on the combined priociple—i. é,, it couid be made either to pay out or to p.ck up, as desired; aod ag the steru of the ship could be converted iuto its stem at any mo- ment, any bitch in the operations couid be rem- edied with a minimum auiount of inconvenience and delay. Some scores oi hands were vusily em- ployed night and day in storing the cable in huge Snuke-like culls tn the difereut tanks almost to the very hour just previous to her departure. Her nowinal burden wae 6,0uv tong, but tt is estimated she could carry 6,480 tuns, and she bad nearly thus weight of cavle on boara when she left England. Her speed under steam was ten Knots gn hour, and che snafts of the propellors were so placed that the ship could turn in # length and @ ball aod iu about eigut minutes of time. ‘The cable was manuiactured by Messrs. Siemens tor the Direct United Staves Cable Vumpuny. Of this compauy, the stock of whic is heid by Eng- | lish, Freuch, ‘Germans und Beigians, Mr. Lushing- ton ts Chairman and Mr. George Von Chauvin Man- ager and Uhief Engineer. Mr. Chauvin is tue son of General Chauvin, who was Director General or Yelegraphs during the Franco-Prussian war. A | banquet was given on pourd the Faraday on Bat- Cs hte fs The party included many emineat meinbers learned societies, engineers, oe ftessora and distinguished foreigners, Amoug them were Dr. Carpenter, Protessor Wiiliamsou, Pro- fessor Abel, Lurd Bury, Major Bolton, Mr. sBram- weil, O.

Dr. William and Mr. Carl Siemens, the 8 ON the occasion, were determined to treat the strangers with the must opeuhanued hospitality. Dr. siemens and ws brother, with the assistance of Mr. Von Cuauvin, manager of the Direct United States Cable vom- pany, having got the party together, pro- ceeded at once to uniold to tuem tue mysteries of cable construction, ‘The party were first suown the cable tank houses, with their huge wrought fron receptacles containing over 2,000 nautical miles of the Direct United States Cable. iv was de.ermined that the Faraday should sail | in a jortnight with her first cargo of cable to com- | plete the line between a point in New Hampsuire, about sixty miles norti o1 Boston, and Newiound: Jand. Returning to Engiand, she was to take on ourd the remaining portion oi the cable, which | ahe would immediately proceed to submerge de- | tween Ireland and Newioundiand. The total | Jength of cabie laid in the two operations would be about.3,100 miles, and it was expected that tae nore would be completed avout August or Sep- mber, DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.
