The huge German liner Europa is shown here as she arrived in New York harbour at the end of her maiden voyage after crossing the Atlantic in the record-breaking time of four days, soventoon hours and six minutos.

A victim of fierce, coastal gales, the large steamship Ornals was tossed upon the rocks near Penzance with the damage pictured here.

No attempt is to be made to salvage the craft, which was battered for several days by mountainous seas.:
