QtrL15NaTOwN, Dec. 5.—The Queen's hotel
ie filled with the passengers of the steam-
ship Spree, and many have been, obliged to
go to K.ilrnnrray's, the European, and other
small hotels, or lodging -hoaxes. Most of
the peseengora have thrilling stories to tell.
Not a few, however, acknowledge that they
had no conception of their peril until they
had been landed, Twice, at leeet, the offi-
cers gave up hope of saving the ship, yet
each time they believed it would be .impos.
aible for the beats to live in the tremendous
seas . On Sunday night all the officers were
convinced that td abandon the ship for th'A

Everybody is eloquent in praise of Mr.
Dwight L. Moody. His service did more
than anything else, all say, toward steady-
ing the courage of the passengers. In every
group of foreigners, during the preaching,
sat somebody who, translated the evangel-
ist's words as they carne from his lips.
Mrs. J. W. Robinson, of Chicago, to -day
told the correspondent of the International
Telegram Company the story of her experi-
ence on the drifting steamship. She said
"When the theft, broke I was sleepiug in
my state -room. I was aroused by a crash
then felt a .heavy shock, which almost
threw me from my berth. I knew that
something serious had happened. 1 got up
immediately, dressed as fast as I could, and
ran into the corridor, where I found the
rest of the passenger frightened and hud-
died. together. When we learned the
cause of the trouble non) of tis realized the
danger we were in, When we get on the
deck, however, we saw a frightful scene.
iiundrecls were struggling for life -preserv-
ers, shouting or groaning or running
about as if crazy. The preparations
to lower the boats increased their
terror. For two days and nights we
were tossed about and drifted Away from
our course. We did not go to bed either
Saturday or Sunday night, The sea was
terrific. The ship rolled ;to that we had to

A German .lady, who tried to leave the
cabin when the sea was at its worst, was

The suicide of a young man from Vienna

Miss M. L. Merriman, of Boston, was ill
in had at the time of the accident, in fact,
too ill to realize her danger. She was near-
ly thrown on the Aoor by the shock. She
dressed herself slowly and was ono of the
last to get en deck. "I never before saw
sucha scene," she said. "Tho ship was at
tihe ateroy of tato sea, and the waves were
dashing ap en the decks. The passengers
were huddled together in the passage Ways
or on the stairs, or were running about as
best they oould on deck. Most of them had

the faces of all were white with terror. We
had a terrible Sunday morning. The sea
was worse than I had ever scan it. We
feared that the bulkheads would not hold
out, and at night had become so frightened
that we would not go to bed, but lay down
in the companion way."
