Twine, in the thick fog that hung orer the sea. the passengers on board the Republic were transferred to other vessels First they were taken on board the Florida, which also waa suffering from the collision. It became apparent, however, that the Italian vessel wss In danger, and she captain decided he must• send away not only the human load that had been taken from the Republic,

bee his own passengers as well.

In the second transfer tbe wireless messages that had flashed the danger of the Republic for hundreds of miles played an Important part. The mist that shrouded the ships made It Impossible to distinguish the outlines of objects fifty yards sway. The clicking of the Instruments In the rooms of the wireless operators told of the position of the vessels, however, and the second transfer was made safely. The men. women and children who had been carried through tbe fog from the Republic to the Florida again were taken off In the small boats of the Baltic. When all of them had Seen transferred safely, the Florida's passengers were taken off. There was no panic, not even disorder. though It took all night to

make the second transfer

Altogether the Baltic carries 1660 passengers she took from the Florida. Those who were on the Florida when ths collision occurred will receive their baggage, for. that ship Is coming Into port under her own steam. Bnt the belongings ot the men and women on ' the Republic probably are losC for It Is not regarded as probable that

the veeee: will be raised.

In the excttlnc Incidents that folI lowed the collision, seven ocean liners took an active part. They were the Baltic,-NeSr York. Fnrneasta, La Lorraine. Lncanla. Republic and Florida. Wireless messages Sashed between the ships, keeping officers and passengers In a "high state of excitement. While the telegraph Instruments clicked their messsges. four of the. ocean liners vainly were searching for the Injured steamer. La Lorraine was so close to the Republic that the disabled vessel's bell waa heard, yet her outline could not be seen. When La Lorraine arrived Ir. port her captain said It was entirely possible that he passed within a hundred yards ot

the sinking vessel.

The anxiety that accompanied ths Inst, transfer after the collision was not relieved when the passengfrt ot the Republic found themselves en baa'd thw,Florida. That vessel also SriaTn bad'shspe. and It was fesred she would sink. Her captain, realising be w*s alnfost helpless, signalled to U^4 Battle to take. every ons os ' Fortunately the sea was smooth, or the transfer wonld have been extremely difficult.

The passengers were' lined against the rail, and as fast as the small boats were able to receive-them, the men. women and children were lifted Into U^em And transferred to the Baltic. All night the work of transfer went on. It was done so methodically that the alarm of tbe passengers was allayed. Officers and sailors went about their work In bnslnese-llke fashion. Afterrthe last of the passengers was taken from the Florida the Baltic started on her way to this city.
