Out of nearly 800 souls ou hoard the Danish ?teamer Nergo, which left Copenhagen Juue 22, only 27 ure kuo- ii to tu ?liva and for the rest uo hope ls bold out. W hon last seen tho Nergo was sinking where she struck cu the inlet of Kockall, who** Isolated peak raises itself from a deadly Atlantic roof some 200 miles oft ibo ?est coast of Scotland. Kurly last Tuesday morning tho Nergo, who was out of hor oourso, in heav} weather, run onto the Kockall reef which, lu the distanoe, looks like a ship under sail. The Norge waa quickly baoked off, but the heavy seas poured iu through a rout in ber bows. Tho etnigrauts, who wore then await ing hreakfast below, ran on deck. Tho hatchways were soarcely built for Hirse linndi eds of souls and becamo clogged. Tho Norge quickly began to go down by the head. Eight boats were lowered aud into t hese the women and children were hurriedly put. Six of these boats smashed against the side of the Norgo aud their helpless iuraates were caught up by the hoavy seas and drownod. Two boat loads got safoly away from the side of the siuking ship and many of the emigrant? who wero left on board seized lifo belts and threw themselves into the sea anti wuro drowued. Tho boats kept together some limns. Practically all of tho ocoupuuts were passungoiH aud not used to handling such craft. Tho boat ocoupiod by the survivors, which lauded at Grimsby, wns a lito, boat. Tho rescue of those on tho lifo boat took placo at 8 o'olock on tho morning of June 29, tho survivors consisting ot 20 men, ono of them a seaman, six . women and a girl. One of the survivors said that wbnu he got cu dook, the Norge was half sub merged and was rapidly getting lower in tho water. Half mad with fright the survivors all struggled for placeB in tim heats. They fought their way to tho big lifo boat aud an otilcor stowed in the Bix women and tho girl and told tho men to got in. The officer thou took ohnrgo ano got tho heat to tho side of tho Norgo. ?Seeing that tho boat was already over laden, tho otUccr, with great huroism, jumped into tho water and tried to hoard another heat, which was not so full. Ho failed and was drowned. Tho sea hy this time was a mass of struggling mon, womou and children, gaspiug nnd choking from tho effects of tho water. They tried to get in tho already overladon boats, but wore beaten oft with oars. The boat rowed clear of this seething inferno anti just as sho drew awav tho Norgo wont down. Peter Nelson, ono of tho survivors, do Bcrihod as a young Amoriuan, said: "For nome hours wo rowed in company with ?thor boats, hut tho strong tido drifted us away from tho others and nothing has been seen of thom since. Tho Salvia picked ns up and wo were well pared for on board tho trailer. All of us lost our ?mire belongings.. Wo had no timo in that Horco light for lifo to think of any thing but tho getting of seats in tho boat." Tho only hopo oxcoot for thoso known to have escaped is that sumo few of tho emigrants might have boon washed upon the barren rock. Their chanco of hoing rescin d oven thou is practically nil, for I vessels sailing tho North Atlantic givoj Kockall as wide a berth as possihlo. Tho nows of this disaster, which it is roared, in its death record is greater than any previous tragedy of tho Atlan tic, carno with tho arrival Inst night of tho steam trawler Salvia at hor homo port, the quiet fishing town of Grimsby. Thu Salvia had been on a fortnight's Bruise around tho Hebrides. Hy a lucky }bhnoe she steamed further west than is usual for Grimsby trawlers, ami foll with tho survivors of tho Norco, who, Tor 24 hours, had boon tossed about in a imall boat on tho rough waters ?f tho North Atlantic. Tho survivors wero taken aboard tho Salvia and wore landed it Grimsby hu t night. Brutally Tortured. A case carno to light that for persistent ?nd unmerciful torture has perhaps novel icen equaled.
