St. John's, Newfoundland, March 24 —(UP)—The tragic story of the sealing steamer Wainwright, blown apart by the terns in the ice waters of Newfoundland was told today for the first time when the rescue ship located itself here with survivors.
It was revealed that even at the moment of the disaster, Friissi, concerned at the danger of the exposed powder, was kettering a sign, "powder" to places where it could be.
It was revealed that Varick Frissell, New York explorer, and Arthur E. Penrod, his companion, probably were blown away by the suffering survivors that the deadly cargo of powder was handled with extreme carelessness, unguarded, spilled on the floor and exclaimed on the hazards of light and smoke.
Henry J. Sargent, of Boston, the American survivor of Prizefinder's expedition in 1860, was a scialer at work, told how he was sitting in the cabin with Princiel and Penelope.
It was a dramatic tale of suffering and heroism in the cruel ice of the north that the survivors brought back. They told how they showed themselves in hymn service when the words of "Never My God to Them" faded away, the terrific blast tore open the aft part of the ship and left them to scrambble to the open

"A few hours before the explosion I had warned the bootsinuit against the gunfire. They fell on the iron legs. One hundred twenty tons of it was thrown carelessly into the mag-
"Members of the crew had free access to the powder room. I saw kegs filled with ice and water, a hundred of the ship's ice flags were over the powder room, some under and some above the powder rooms. These lines were moving carelessly about. Some were burning closely by and among them."
