When this passenger left, L35,000 had been voted by city and state governments and L100,000 by citizens and business corporations.

When news of the disaster was telephoned to the Exchange L35,000 were subscribed in the first five minutes.

Subscribing was still going on when he left; the papers had ceased the names, only the amounts--too many names; not enough room.

L100,000 subscribed by companies and citizens; if this is true, it must be what they call in Australia "a record"-- the biggest instance of a spontaneous outpour for charity in history, considering the size of the population it was drawn from, $8 or $10 for each white resident, babies at the breast included.

Steaming slowly in the stupendous Delagoa Bay, its dim arms stretching far away and disappearing on both sides.
