STORY OF SURVIVOR OF
RORA.MA DISASTER.
Vivid Description of lb. Horror, ot
the Martinique Eruption by a Man
Who Was on the lllfated Vessel.
New York, May 23. The steamer
Korcna has arrived from Fort de
Prance, Martinique, having on board
two survivors of the steamer Itora
ima, lost In the St. Pierre disaster,
Ellery Scott, chief offlcor of the ill
fated vessel, and Charles Thompson,
assistant purser. From Scott, on the
way tin, the captain of the Korena
heard the tale of the terrible experi
ences of the Roraima in all Its horri
ble details.
The Roraima cot into harbor at St.
Pierre about G:30 a. m., on the 8th
and about 8 or 8:30 o'clock there i were conducted by Elder Corliss,
came from the mountain a terrible Vho preached a very interesting ser

rain of fire and hot mud. Captain
Muggah, standing upon the bridge,
shouted, "Heave away quickly, and
get up the anchor."
They had taken in but a few fath
oms of chain when a huge stream of
fiery lava raced down the moun
tain side and into the bay, shoving
the waters of the harbor back and
hurling the Roraima on her side.
The rush of water cleared the ship's
deck, tnking her deck works, boats,
and bulwarks all overboard. Scott
saw Captain Muggah swept away
with the wreckage of the bridge and
leaped from the forecastle head to
his assistance, but was immediately
dashed to the deck and trampled
under foot by the crew in their mad
rush for safety.
But for the action of two colored
steerage passengers he would have
perished with the others, burned to
death by the lava which poured in on
the vessel's deck, but these men seiz
ed him and dragged him into the
steerage, where by wrapping blank
ets around their heads they succeed
ed in escaping serious injury.
Meanwhile Thompson, the other of
ficer who was saved, reached his room
from tiie deck, where he had beenj
when the first outbreak came and 1
closed the door until the worst was,
over. An open ventilator allowed the
flames to reach him, however, and hei
was badly burned about the neck and I
lost one ear." The survivors even-
tually gathered in the steerage and
joined in fighting back the flames
until taken off by "the French cruiser
Souchet.
Scott said that when Captain Mug
gah was carried away, Daniels, the
ship's cooper, jumped overboard,
seized upon the body and dragged
him upon a hatch cover which was
lloatlng near by. He desisted, how
over, when ho saw that the captain's 1
chest and abdomen were torn1 away 1
as though cut with a knife, left the
body on the hatch, swam back to the
ship and helped fight the fire
FRATERNAL INSURANCE.

Hartford, Conn., May 23. Much in
terest has been aroused in the report
of State Insurance Commissioner E.
L. Schofiold relative to secret or fra
ternal society insurance. The Com
missioner takes a decidedly pessi
mistic view of the matter, and his
statements attract all the more at
tention as Connecticut has long been
regarded as a banner state for nearly
every fraternal insurance organiza
tion in America. The renort savs
that, while the Increase in assets and
decrease in liabilities in 1901 over
1900 would be taken to indicate a
prosperous condition of the organiza

increase in expense as compared
with the increase in membership and
the amount paid for death claims,
satisfactory conditions are nnt mnni.
