VESSELS GO DOWN.

Furious Storms on the Atlantic Cause Many Wrecks.

A SCORE OF LIVES HAVE BEES LOST.

Great Damage by Wind, Rain and Snow Reported from Many Localities In Mew York, New Jertey and

PannaylTanla.

WORST BTOBM FOB VKARSNEWYORK, April 12.—The whole Atlantic) coast from Boston to Baltimore 1b In the clutches of the worst storm since the never-to-be-forgotten blizzard "'1888. And not only the coast but all states north of the Carolina* and east of the Allegheny mountains, including the whole of New York state.

In some respeota this storm is more dreadful and disastrous than the blizzard whioh paralysed New York six years ago. That was fleroer, but it did not diffuse itself over so great an area, "'o-day every foot of ground east of Buffalo Is covered with BO inohes of snow.

Telegraphic Service Demoralised. Nearly every telegraph and telephone wire in New York, New Jersey, Maryland, eastern Pennsylvania and Delaware has been torn down by the fury of the blast New York is practically isolated, though all communication has not yet been cut off with the outside world. Baltimore, Boston, Philadelphia and Washington are in a similar plight Dispatches are coming in from those points, but they come in slowly and at long intervals. The telegraph companies say they have not been so badly crippled over so much territory In maDy years. New Jersey is most badly off in this respeot Since Tuesday night nobody in this city or elsewhere has been able to get a word from Paterson, Plainfield, Seabrlght, Long Branch, Asbury Park or New Brunswick.

VTrecki and Lou of Life.

News reached this city Wednesday from the life-saving station at Long Branch that a vessel was on the rocks near the Hquan life-saving station and was rapidly being ground to pieces. It was Impossible in the sea then running to venture out even in a lifeboat and the crew was forced to stand calmly by and watch eight men die helpless before their eyes. Six sailors went down into the sea with the bowsprit. One clung to the main-mast as it lapped over aDd fell into the rough embrace of the waves. He held on for nearly an hour and fought desperately .against the pounding waters, but at the end of that time his strength gave way and he disappeared forever. Another brave fellow breasted the waves and finally reached the shore, only to be knocked down by a huge breake^ and carried out to death by the resistless undertow.

All the Crew Drowned.

The vessel wrecked off Squan is the Albert W. Smith, sailing from Philadelphia to Providence with coal.

The Kate Maskel went ashore off Highland Beach and her entire crew of twelve men were drowned. The lifeboats from the two nearest stations to the spot were unable to launch their boats on account of the awful sea which was running. The captains of these statious, however, did everything possible to rescue the erew of the Kate Markee. The rocket apparatus was used in the attempt at rcscue several shots were fired in die direction of the sehooper, aud each time the line fell short and the seaman, washed from the stranded schooner, were drowned within a comparatively short distance of the shore.

Great Damage to Shipping. A special to the Brooklyn Eagle from Greenport, L. I., says: The fiercest storm experienced here in years is raging. There is great damage to shipping. The new oyster schooner Nevada has been driven ashore. She is heavily l,oaded with seed oysters, and without a doubt will become a total wreck, as she Is pounding to pieces on the rooks. Tho lumber sloop John Morgan parted her cables and in less than ten minutes was a total wreck.

IMmage on the Jersey Coast. SBABIIIGIIT, N. J., April 18.—The effect of the storm has been devastating throughout the state. Furious gales of wind and monstrous seas have wrought havoc and destruction along the Jersey coast Buildings, trees, telegraph and telephone wires, railway tracks, embankments, wharves and fences all yielded to the destructive fury of the elements. Above it all stands out the loss of human life. gt .. JTury of the Htornu

The storm began Tuesday afternoon and increased in fury every hour of its duration until at daylight Wednesday morning it had assumed most destructive proprtiona The wind howled along from 40 to 60 miles an hour. Sleet and snow pelted down in almost impenetrable sheets. The extent of damage otherwise done at sea is not yet definitely known, but two large vessels were thrown up on the sand and demolished in a few moments. The innumerable fishing boats and small.craft anohored along the shores before the storm are now nowhere visible, and nothing remains of them save the wreckage strewn along the shores—melancholy mementoes In the track of the stormswept coast llesorts Buffer.

Atlantio City suffered considerably. Waves dashed over the boardwalk, and at times this famous attraction was threatened with being carried out to sea. At Brigantlne Beach the new electrio railroad was almost wiped out At Redbank several boat houses were oarrled away and much damage was done to sailing craft All telegraph and telephone wires radiating from Seabright were prostrated and sea-shore service is cut off. Qen. Earl's hotel,' the Normandle-by-the-Sea, Is likely to be totally wrecked. The bulkheads which protect it cannot long resist the terrible force of the sea which is beating against It and the. next high tide will probably

carry It away. At Galilee the ocean is undermining St. Peter's church, which the morning tide will also probably bring down. In Morris, Bergen and Warren counties roads were impassable. Trains on railroads running into Jersey City and Hoboken were all delayed.

Bad for the Farmers. ',

The meadows between Jersey City and Hoboken and Newark are several Inohes under water and nothing 1B risible exccpt telephone and telegraph poles. At Bayonne many boats and boat houses were washed away. At South Amboy a partially erected house was blown down and at New Brunswick electrio light, telegraph and telephone wires were leveled to the ground. Incalculable damage was done to the fruit crop. The peach orop suffered particularly, and It Is feared that the entire crop will prove a failure. Farmers throughout the state will be heavy sufferers.

Extant of the' Storm.

LOCKPOHT, N. Y., April 13.—The severest snowstorm of the season struck this city Tuesday afternoon. A foot of snow covers the streets and fallen shade-trees block the sidewalka Country ruads are Impassable. Great damage has been done to fruit trees throughout the oountry and the crop will suffer seriously.

BUFFALO, N. Y., April 12.—The local weather officer reports this the heaviest snowfall since the bureau was established—over twenty years ago. This section bore the brunt of the Lake Superior gale.

PHILADELPHIA, April 12.— A snow and windstorm has been raging for thirty-six hours. Telegraph and telephone wires generally are useless and all railway trains are much delayed. ReportB from the mountain regions «ay that snow has fallen to the depth of about 18 inches and all trains are bad'y delayed.

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa., April 12.—There are now 27 Inches of snow on the ground and the destruction of electric light and telegraph wires is the most disastrous of the season. The electric light plants have been forced to shut down and the eleotric and steafa railroads are practically snowed up. The snow is of the heavy, wet variety, and a number of roofs have fallen in under the weight of It A sudden thaw will probably result In a disastrous flood.

Wrecked off Milwaukee.

MILWAUKKB, April 18.—A little yawl boat, 1U feet long, drifted to the beach several miles north of this city early Monday morning, bearing the unconscious form of Capt William B. Wood, the only survivor of the schooner Island City. The other two men, who comprise the crew of the lost boat, were undoubtedly drowned when tho boat went down. Capt Wood was so nearly dead from exposure that he barely managed to erawl to a farmhouse near the shore and then became unconscious again. The Island City was a schooner of fifty-one tons burden and left Ludington, Mich., Sunday morniug with a load of green elm and beech lumber, bound for this port. Sunday evening she sprung a leak. Finding that she was sure to sink in spite of every effort made to save her, the crow undertook to launoh the yawl boat, but a huge sea swept tho vessel carrying the oaptain and the boat overboard, lie clung to the kiel of the boat until washed ashore. Nothing has been heard of his two companions, and they are undoubtedly lost. They are William Marsh, of St Joseph, Mich., and Joseph Rouse, of Baroda, Micli.

roKwAitn THROUGH THE R.NONV. CUAI.K MILL, Pa., April 18.—Coxey's motley band of commonwealers passed the night on the oak floors of an ancient colonial mansion whioh stands back from the road on a bare, windswept knoll. The building has long been vacant The army marched out of Uniontown Wednesday morning in a snowstorm. The national pike, after It leaves Uniontown, runs directly up the western side of the mountains. In places it is both steep and rocky, and had it not been for the timely assistance of the cowboy commonwealers with their lariats the commissary wagons would never have reached the summit As the army toiled upward tho rain changed to heavy, wet snow, which came down slowly, settled upon the clothing of the marchers aud wet them to the skin. Before reaching the. top of the ridge the snow on the hilU was over 1 foot deep, and both men and teams found the greatest difficulty In toiling through it. The men bravely kept in line, however, reaching- this place late in the afternoon without notable incident

MR. SPOONER EXPLAINS.

lie Modified Ills Statement That, lie Drew Up the Jenkins Order. MILWAUKEE, April 12.—A quibble Is involved lu the question ns to whether or not ex-Senator John C. Spooner wrote the famous strike order issued by Judge Jenkius. He said Wednesday that he did not "write" or "draw" it, yet lie certainly did say on the witness stand Tuesday that lie "dictated" the petition and "apart of the order." On

Wednesday Mr. Spooner said in ail interview: "I dklu'l Uruw up the lirst order uml injunction: that was dona by Mr. .Miller, the ulher attorney for the rui-eivers. I .itatod Tuesday that I believed I assisted in their preparation, bill 1 find now that I didu'l-ll at 1 only pre -reu llie petition."

The language of the petition and that of the order are very similar aud it probable that the order itself wtis drafted from the petition doubtless by Attor uey Miller. When the papers including the order were all ready there was a meetingand the papers were read. When the clause forbidding the men to quit the employ of the road, with or without notice, was reached, Mr Spooner called a halt and in the petition injected a reference to Judge Pardee's decision. Lawyers say that in ex-parte proceedings, as in this case, it is not r.t all uncommon for the petitioners to draw their own orders, and Mr. Spxmcr during the examination Tuesday said it was the invariable rule.

Over 900,000 Men Affected by tlie Decision—War Henewed tn the Coke Keglon—Dlood«hed Almost Sure to Follow.

MIN'KKS TO QVIT WORK.

COLUMBUS, O., April 12.—The United Mine Workers of America have ordered a general strike April 21. J. A. Crawford, of Illinois, member of the executive board, presented tho resolution to strike. He said from twelve to fourteen resolutions had been referred to the committee, but tliev had decided to substitute two. one of which was to strike April 22. This precipitated prolonged applause and an animated discussion. \V. D. Van Horn, of Indiana, opposed the date, asserting that the Indiana miners had a contract with the operators to work until May 1. The operators had asked them to accept a reduction, but it had been opposed and the wages had not been reduced. He was in favor of suspension of work May I. Joseph Dunkerly, state president of Indiana, was bitterly opposed to the date, lie also wanted assurauce that Illinois was ready, for If Illinois waslnot ready then the coal operators of that state could supply all the states around. The date was changed to tho 21st, on account of the 22d being Sunday, and the resolution was carried.

Will Be a Great Strike.

The strike will involve over 200,000 men and will cover the whole territory between eastern Pennsylvania and Colorado. Secretary Treasurer McBrlde, In his report to the convention, said that 101 localB had been organized in the year, sixty-nine of these in Pennsyl vania and thirty-one in Ohio. The financial statement showed a total income of 830,928 salary and expenses, 818,467 theso with stoppage of two banks and miscellaneous expenses left a balance on hand of 83,568.

The Scale lplxed.

Late in the afternoon the election wis taken up and'Jolin McBride was reelected president, P. II. l'enna vice president and Patrick McBryde secre-tary-treasurer. Another important work was the arrangement of a scale for tho various states. The report of the scale committee to be made Is as follows:

Foi Imlluua. 70 it-ii!s a ton Ohio, IlocUlng, 70 Cuyalio::a, to 0 Pliuliurtfh, .TV Central Pennsylvania, average W to 03 Maryland, i0 Illinois. SO to tj MlehiKun. 30 to 5£J.

This is the scale as adopted two years ago. Itli 1.1!c 1 111 In Ciileiijro. t'lilCAiio, April 12.—Pursuant to the decision of the Central Building league and a majority of the leading builders of Chicago the lockout of all the employes engaged in the building trades begins this morning at 7 o'clock. According to the construction put on the action of Tuesday's meeting at the Builders' and Traders' exchange no man altlliatod with a trade union will be taken back to work until a general agreement is reached that they will consent to an arbitration of all differences growing out of the schedules which the bosses have refused to sign. Representatives of both sides say that a long light, and one in which the building trades and allied industries will remain practically at a standstill, is imminent. Others declare that tho lockout will last until Saturday night, but not much longer.

Coke War on Again.

UNIONTOWN,

Pa., April

11.—War

has

begun again in the coke region and the situation is most critical. Rioting and raiding have been the programme and fierce battles have been averted only by concessions on the part of the companies. The first indication of trouble was. in the form of an armed mob of 400 strikers, which assembled at 7::i0 a. m. at the Youngstown works of the II. C. Frieti company, near here. About sixty coke drawers were in the pit when ata given signal strikers swooped down upon the plant from every direction. The workers lied for shelter to tho company's store, which was guarded by only six employes. The 400 Huns demanded that the. workmen be given lip. This was refused at first, but after several attacks the workmen were given up. They were treated to all sorts of insults and some of them beaten with clubs.

Sheriff'® Deputies Overpowered. Sheriff Willielm was notified at once and started for the scene of trouble. The rioters had left for the Leisenring's, taking the Youngstown workers with them. -The sheriff gave chase with twenty deputies, overtook the. mob and ordered them to disperse. The leader of the rioters answered that they were on the public highway, and had equal rights with the sheriff. A deputy took charge of ODC of the men, when the strikers surrounded the posse and forced the authorities to give up the man. The sheriff's force then fell back and the strikers continued the march toward Leisenring. Twenty more deputies have left there to join .Sheriff Willielm. Trouble is inevitable, as the strikers are all armed.

The Situation Critical.

dents at the plants are living in constant fear. Many of them have sent their families here for tho night, In order to be In a place of safety. A number of the workmen taken from Youngstown were

badly beaten that

they are in a serious condition. Some escaped when the sheriff was trying to get the mob to disperso, and came back with broken arms and bruised and bleeding bodies.

Afraid of Wlnrhefltem.

At the Leiseurlug plants of the H. C. Frlck Coke company mobs of strikers marched to and fro all day, but there were no violent outbreaks owing to the number of deputies on guard. About I) o'clock a mob of men went tc Trotter, near Leiseurlug, uud dt

inanded that the men lay down their tools. When the strikers made an attempt to go into the yards twenty-live Winchesters were leveled on them and they

were forced to fall back. The strikers marched on to Leisenring, carrying tho American flag. Here the men refused to quit work. The rioters then dispersed.

I.OH8 of Lift Sure to IteBiilt. In this section there are seven plants In full operation employing nearly 2,000 workmen. liaeh plant is guarded by from twenty-five to fifty deputies, and any attempt at Interference will result in loss of life. The superintendents ha Instructed the deputies to shoot to kill. In the opinion of Sheriff Willielm the strike has just begun. He says he finds the men more determined and: fearless than when blood was being shed last week and he fears for the results.

In the opinion of tho authorities the situation is us critical as before tho killing of Paddock ut the Davidsou works. The action of the Seottdale convention in condemning riot and advising a peaceable policy the operators declare was only a farce and a blind to put them oft' their guard, and if the actions of the rioters on Wednesday can be taken as- an Indication of their methods the next few days will see tho coke region the scene of unbounded disorder and bloodshed.
