Heroic Conduct of Men Who Faced Death. London, Oct. 17. —The Atlan tic Transport Company issued the following statement yester day evening regarding the fate of the passengers and crew of the steamer Mohegan, which was wrecked last Friday evening off the Lizard, between the Man acles an! the Lowlands : Os the passengers eleven have been saved, ten bodies have been recovered and thirty three are missing. Os the crew and cattlemen thirty nine have been saved, fourteen bodies have been re covered and fifty one are miss ing. Since this statement was is sued nine other bodies have been picked up, including two that have been identified as those of passengers. The reports of the various correspondents differ widely as to the rescues, recoveries and losses though none has been able to obtain the exact number of those saved or of the bodies re covered. the bodies of the following passengers have been recovered : la 1. W, King, Edna King, Master King, James Blackey, II. M Cowen, Dr. Fallows, Kk L Franklin Fuller, Mrs. L. M George Seymour, Miss L, 11. Warr.nor. The latest ad vices from Fal i mouth say that thirty eight bodies haye been identified, mostly the bodies-of sailors, thus indicating that more bodies have been recovered since the com pany’s statement was made, Thirteen are yet unidentified, including those of two elderly ladies. One app-ais to be a Ger m an. She wore a watch and a wedding ring, both engraved ‘•1871.” The other wore a silver orooch with the letter “D” in pearl. This is probably the body of Mrs, Charles Duncan. Up to midnight fifty one bodies had been recovered. Some were found miles away and it is expected that more will be washed ashore tomorrow. Many persons undoubtedly were killed by being dashed on rough rocks, who would have escaped if cast ashore on an or dinary coast. Some of the bodies are horribly mangled. A good deal of jewelry and money has been found. As all the navigating officers were lost, it is doubtful whether light will ever be thrown on the causes of the disaster. All the flags ashore and on the boats in the bay are at half mast. Nine of the bodies have been brought to Falmouth, the others to the village church at St. Keverne. The rescued passengers are being sheltered at cottages along the shore and the crew at the Sailors’ Home at Falmouth. Tugs have been cruising in the vicinity all day, despite the rough weather in hope of pick ing up other bodies. The Ct use of the disaster re mains the profoundest mystery. Nobody attempts to explain how the Mohegan got so far north of her true course—from six to I IngraM * 1 LITHIA I I Wateß| /ft /ft BUILDS UP THE SYSTEM, M/ /ft r.

There was no fog a t the time, while the wind on her port quarter was not sufficient to prevent her answering the helm. It has been suggested that h- r compass was faulty, but day light lasted long after Eddystone light w’as passed. The sailors say .the fact that the Lizard light was not vsible •houjd have served to give alarm. The masts of the Mohe gan, which are above the water, show that her stern, is landward causing a thsory that the navi gating officer on discovering that he was in the bay suddenly turned seaward. Two engineers who were saved declare, how ever, that they never slackened speed, Remarkable stories of rescues continue. Robert Barrew, a sea man, performed the feat of swimming, unaided, through the roughest water to Coverack point, a distance of two and a half miles. He climbed up the ragged cliff, where a searching party found him early the next morning completely exhausted. A. C. L. Smith, of Oi-egm, a passenger, surrendered to a wtfman in the water w-reckage that was supporting him and swam asnore unaided. The Wom an was saved. Her name is re ported as Miss Webb, but no such name appears in the Com pany’s list. Messrs. Smith and Blocking, dale say there was the greatest difficulty in launching the boats. The ropes were new and stiff, and the blocks would not Work. Four or five times as many sailors as should have been necessary struggled to bower each boat. The lockers were hard to open. The crew, in a chival rous effort to savd the women, made the mistake of under-man ning the boats. There were only four sailors in one boat, which capsized as soon as it ' was launched, Messrs, Smith and Blooiningdile say that Capt. Griffiths had appeared ill all day. The death of T. W. King, who was a newspaper proprietor at Nantucket, Mass., and of his family, including Mrs. King, her mother, Mrs. Weller, and his sous, Rufus, aged eleven, and Anthony, aged seven, has caussd deep sorrow at Penzance, where the family had a summer cottage and were very popular. Joseph O’Rjiko, King’s valet, who was sa' ed, says he was on deck when the crash came. The lights went cut immediately. Rushing to the saloon he heard Mr King exhorting his family to keep cool. O’Rorke, with seven others, clung to the rigging until 6 o’clock yesterday morning when a life boat took him off. He identified the bodies of the Kings and Mrs. W. 1 er and will have them embalmed and taken to the United States in accord ance with ci bled instructions from the relativ- s of the family at Nantucket.
