THR — fa vivors reached Halifax, N. S., with the news. The full extent of the dis- aster was not known until three days after it happened. To-day’s accident stows the progress toward the protection of life on the high seas that hast been made in ten years. | As soon after the Republic was struck as it was possible to get the wireless in operation the electric waves were reaching out for hundreds of miles in every direction carrying calls for help. While the steerage p:issengers screamed and fought and prayed, and the first class cabin passengers, frightened and hysterical but more re- served, were gathered in the saloon and reassured by the otticers of the perched up in his little room high above the flashes ot alarm. The fog was so tl at it was impossible to see more than a ship's length out over the qily waves. As the engine and boiler rooms were flooded there was no steam, and the coughing of the exhaust and the shiver of the screws which the passengers had felt ever since they passed out by Sandy Hook yesterday were inissi When ners and c#2w were assured tha immediately and the pa following the collision had calmed down the attention of the whole s company was directed to the bluish flashes that pierced the fog through the door and windows of the operator's room These flashes were carryingwout the messages upon which the hopes of life of the observers hung | RELIEF QUICKLY ON WAY. | The first news of the diswster reached Newport by wireless at 8 o'clock and was imediately sent to The Evening World, Soon after that the wire- less offices in this cNy and along the coast were picking up messages from La Lorraine and the Baltic, telling how the conymanders of those vessels had received the alarmsand were on their way torthe relief of the vessel in | distress | Undoubtedly there was grait relief on beard the Republic when the} wireless operator, ceasing for the first time, tired out, his efforts to shoot | ship, the wireless operator, deck, was pounding out h the ship would not sink to THE, REPUBLIC ihe his messages of distress as: far a possible, got.an answer upon his delicate | machine ry.

CAN FLOAT INDEFINITELY. The wireless reports from the vessels bound to the aid of the Republic | were also quite heartening to the afficers of the White Star line in this city. | It appears that Capt. Sealby utilized his wireless appartus solely for the | purpose of sending out messages tor help until he was assured that these messages had been heard and heedad. Then he bethought himself to make a wireless report to his office in| New York. This report did not retich the White Star line until some time after the news had been given to the officials by The Evening World. There was a big sigh of relief in the White Star line offices when It became known that the Republic wias still afloat and that La Lorraine and the Baltic were on their way to take off her passengers and crew should Of the persons who booked for | such a course be found nevessary, It was stated far the line that the Re-| Names appear on the list, may not Other New Yor Abroad the in of the line, according to the officials. indefinitely with the engine room and boiler rooms flooded.

News of the mishap to the Republic had spread:to the uttermost corners | of the United States before noon, thanks to the wireless at sea and the telegraph on land, Millions of people standing at bulletin boards in front of newspaper offices throughout the country read with breathless attention of the thrilling drama at sea being enacted, as it were, before their very ) eyes, although the actual scene+was more than. fifty miles off the coast of Nev England, On board the Republic is a consignment of 500 tons of supplies for the American battleship fleet now in the Mediterranean.
