COLLISION OF FERRY STEAMERS.
SYDNEY, December 27,
A narrow escape from a terrible disaster occurred in Circular Quay to one of the crowded excursion boats, the Princess, with 300 on board, being cut down by the North Shore Ferry steamer. Fortunately, the Princess was no distance from the wharf. The ferry steamer also got alongside, and her passengers scampered over the ferryboat and reached the wharf. The Princess sank within ten minutes.
