Derrotr, Ju'y 23,4 p. m.—Atl o'clock this moruitg vews was received of a terrible disaster on the Detroit river, about a mile above Grassy Isle, whereby fifteen 1 ves wete lost by a collision between the propeller land and the steam yacht Mamie. The Mamie had on board Father Blyen- burg, of the Trinity Catholio church, of thia city, and his altar boye, sixteen in number. Father Blyenburg snd four boya were eaved; twelve boys and two women and the engineer wera lost. The Mamie was cut in two amidships. DETALLS OF THE DISASTER. Spoctal disparch to Tun B Detrorr, July 23—4 p. m.-—Ycs. terdsy morning Father Blyenbergh, pastor of the Roman Catholic church of the Holy Trinity, of this city, starced out to give his altar boya their regular excursion. They -went on board the steam yacht Msmie and were taken to Monrce, Mich. On their return, while coming up Detroit river, at about ten o'clock last night, ata point just below Grassy Isiand light house, the yacht was met by the steamer Garland, of Detroit, haviug on board the Moulder Union and a large party of friends, and a collision took place, the Garland EUNNING THROUGH THE STEAM YACHT and sinking her almost instantaneous- ly. There wers 24 persons on board the Mamie, of these but eight were saved the others going down in the deep swift water with no hope of find ing the bodies yet for daye. The captain of the Garland, Geo. Horn, was near the wheel house with the wheelsman at the time, and on being interviewed by a News reperter to-day, rcfused to talk, Wheelsman H. W. Buffeays he saw a light which tock to be ananchor light and no r=d or green lights. When about fifty feet from the light he heard a whistle from the Mamie. He answered it, and backed the engines, and then called to Capr. Horn to hel, atthe wheel. He thinks the Mamie must bave tried to cross his bow Boats were lowered immediately and life preservers thrown overboard. There was & great lack of nerve and system in the matter of rescuing so far as the officers of the Garland are concerned. It appears that the Ma. mie was strack on the quarter, and went down slmost instantly. A COWARDLY OFFICEE. An officer of the Garland, or one appearing to be in authority, cursed these who were throwing over life pre- servers and made them stop it, but a negro employe of the boat seemed to have more nerve than snyone else be- longiog to the boat and st to work throwmg over life preservers. James Murtagh, an attachee of The Eveviog News, and a level headed, courageous young man, siyshe was on the Garland, sitting at the bow. when the acoident occurred. He says the Garland was runniog straight down the river on her course. The boats would have passed but the yacht sud- denly, when but a few feet from the Garland, put her wheel over and shot acrosa the bow of the Garland, when she was struck and went dcwn. There wili be a rigid examination by the au- thorities. THE LOST are as follows: Frank Nolan, John Howe, Dayid Barcy, Juhn Donovon, Will Ouddy, David Cuddy, the last bring brothers, John Cosgrove, James Touney, Joseph Monayhan, Toomas McSayer, Andrew Dovan and John Kelley. ~All the bogs were from 10 to 16 years of age. The others lost were Lizzie Murphe, Mary Hobp, Mrs. Mury Martin and Thomas Kelly, sexton of the church. THOSE SAVED were Father Blegenbergh, Miss Dus- sen, four boys and the captain and engineer of the yacht, who constituted thecrew. Thero wss buta moment]to act, as the awfui tragedy was over ina mo- ment of time, although there were soveral instances of individual ‘heroism of those on board of the Gar- Iand, smong them being that of John Quirk, a young moulder, who dove from the bust and picked up two drowning bo, The accident is the first of the kind here in mauy years, and thrills the city with horror. Mamie's Loss. Bpecial Dispatch 10 the Bas. Derrorr, July 24—1 a. m.—There appears to be no great amount of ad- ditional facta about the **Mamie” dis- aster. Divers are looking for the wreck of the Mamie and bringing her to the sorface. It will be attempted, if this can be done, to prove that her lights were set when she went down, as her engiveer saya. Al testimony thus far shows the night to have been singularly clear, and that the boats could be seen long before they struck. Iuis olaimed that they were standin, on ocourses which, if maintained, would possibly have allowed them to This may be true, but they would have been too close for psitive safety even then. Bat when the man at the wheel of the ill-fated little steam yacht ran her across ths track of the Garland all possibility of safety was thrown away. THE PRIEST'S SUFFERING.
