Brother of Distinguished Painter and Honored In Three Countries for Genius In Designing. NEWPORT, R. I., July 31. Richard M. Hunt, the well-known architect and designer of world's fair buildings, Mr. W. K. Vanderbllt's marble palace, Cornelius Vanderbllt's "New Breakers," and other Newport villas, died this afternoon. Heart failure was the cause of his death. He has been feeling unwell for several weeks, but nothing serious was anticipated until yesterday, when his condition became alarming. He leaves a widow, two sons and three daughters. All the members of the family wore present at the deathbed. Richard Morris Hunt was born in Brattleboro, Vt., on the 31st of October, 182S. Descended from an old New England family, his father was Jonathan Hunt, once well known as a Representative In Congress. The late William Mcrrls Hunt, the distinguished painter, was his brother. In 1813,. when fifteen years old, he accompanied his mother to Europe and entered school In Geneva, where he began the study of architecture under Samuel Dariere. He next went to Paris and became a pupil of Lefeul and a student at the Ecole des Beau Arts. Upon leaving there he traveled through Europe and Asia Minor, returning to Paris in 1834, when he received from the French government, the appointment of Inspector des Travaux In connection with the new building uniting the Tuilerles to the Louvre. Lefeul having, in the mean time, succeeded Vlscontl as architect, placed his pupil In charge of the Pavilion de la Blbliothoqu, opposite the Palais Royal, and In this position young Hunt had the honor of making, under Lefeul, all the studies and drawings for the pavilion. Mr. Hunt returned to the United States In 18C5. Immediately upon his arrival here he was engaged to assist the late Thomas U. Walter In preparing plans for the completion of the Capitol at Washington. After six months of indefatlgible and invaluable service in this capacity, he came to this city and began here the career of incessant activity which made him. years ago, the acknowledged dean of the architectural brotherhood of this country and second only to the lamented Richardson as an original and perfect artist. He took a prominent part in founding the American Institute of Architects, an institution which now embraces in its membership nearly all the reputable architects of the country. He also opened an atelier for students similar to those which flourished in Paris. In his studio many of the leading architects of the United States received some of the best instruction they ever had. The structures designed by Mr. Hunt are found in all the principal cities of the country. No American architect has had such recognition abroad as had Mr. Hunt. He was appointed a member of the Jury of fine arts at the International exhibition at Paris In 1867. He was made a knight of the Legion of Honor in 1882, and was elected a member of the Institute of France. He was al30 a member of the Central Society of French Architecture, of the Society of Architects and Engineers of Vienna, and of the Academy at Luclnrog. He was, moreover, a corresponding member of the Royal Institute of British Architecture, and. in 1833, received from the institute the gold. medal presented annually by Queen Victoria to the architect or archaeologist adjudged to have done most for the advancement "of the history or practice of architecture. In his own country Mr. Hunt has been highly appreciated. At the Philadelphia and Chicago expositions, he was a member of the Juries which decided questions relating to high arts.

Hahnemann College Bonci Antedate the Atleiced Episode He 'Relate. CHICAGO, July 31. What little was left of M. G. Chappell's yarn of skeleton fixing for Holmes was demolished yesterday by dates. Chappell told the police the skele ton secured from the Hahnemann Hospital was fixed by himself and a locksmith named Richardson some time in the fall of 1S93. Investigation yesterday shows Richardson died April 22. 1SS9, at No. 27C La Salle street; of consumption, over four year3 before the date given by Chappell. This fits In with the statement of Chappell's family that he and Richardson fixed one skeleton seven or eight years ago. If anything more was needed to prove the falsity of Chappell's statement it is furnished in the testimony of the officials of the Hahnemann College. With a view. to. authenticating his previous statement Dr. Edward M. Bruce, assistant treasurer of the college, went through the records of that institution at the office of Ersklne M. Phelps, the treasurer, yesterday morning. As a result of the investigation Dr. Bruce said: "I have loked through the records thoroughly as far back as 1887, and I can find no transaction such as mentioned between the college and either Chappell or Richardson. The skeleton identined by Chappell we have had for at least four years. I do not know how much longer, as the Janitor, Berghoff, is positive It was in the old college before it was torn down to make room for the present structure. .That would place the date back as far as May, 1832, and we must have had the skeleton some time previous to that. The only other old skeleton In the college collection was purchased In 1SSD of a man by the name of Smith. There Is nothing to show on the books of any skeletons purchased from either of the two men mentioned, whjch would have appeared if such a transaction had taken place. It is a good deal of a myth. S. S. Richards was a student taking a post-graduate course, and before the time when Chappell says he sold the college the skeleton he was practicing medicine In Ohio. Richards could not possibly have been Richardson." , "Tony" Berghoff, the Janitor, has been connected with the hospital and college for over twelve years, and- he Is absolutely certain the skeleton was in the possession of the college for some time previous to 1S92. He said: "I was Janitor of the hospital up fo the time of the tearing down of the college. Shortly after Dr. Carp became superintendent 1 w.is employed to nrw.e ;be appiratus from the college and store it in the hospital. This skeleton was the only one which was Intact. I could Identify it In the dark. The moving took place in May, ISO.', and I can remember seeing that skeleton for a month prior to that time. I am positive that no new skeleons were brought into the school during 1S33." It Mny Be Holmes. WICHITA. Kan..

HUEST FOR GOVERNOR

AX I'LTRA GOItMAMTE MOMI.VATED IX DALtlMOnE COXVEXTIOX. The Administration Indorsed and One Faction Hisses Gorman Name Other Political Xcirs. BALTIMORE, July 31. When the news was flashed through the convention this morning that Senator Gorman had slated the rich dry goods merchant," John H. Hurst, of thl3 city, for gubernatorial honors and State Senator Crothers for Attorney-generalship in place of General Duglass, who, up to to-day, had been conceded the nomination, a howl of surprise and disappointment ent up from many quarters, especially from the country, where "the desire for the reassessment is strong and where the friends of this measure had supported the candidacy of Thomas G. Hayes, a leading exponent of reassessment. Several of Hayes's supporters were so embittered that they declared their intention of voting for Judge Fisher, the avowed opponent of Gorman. Senator Hayes, who asserted that, he had, from the outset, been assured of Gorman's support, emphatically declared he would remain In the fight and charges treachery. The other candidates, however, excepting Judge Fisher, philosophically bowed to the lnevlable. It was 12:23 when the convention was called to order. Senator Talbott made a lively address. During it one enthusiast proposed a cheer for John E. Hurst. The che 8 and the hisses, however, were almost equal in volume. A cheer for Senator German met .with better success. Mr. Talbott predicted a big Democratic success this year. He closed by introducing Mr, Bernard Carter as temporary chairman, who made an enthusiastic speech on the Democratic outlook. The committee on resolutions, after an hour's deliberation, returned with a unanimous report. The resolutions approved the Democratic platform of 1893 and of the able and patriotic administration cf President Cleveland. They declared against free sliver and approved the Wilson tariff bill, which was characterized as the best the country has known fcr thlrty-flve years. The administration of Governor Brown was highly compliImented. The platform contained no reference to Senators German and Gibson. The nominee, John E. Hurst, although a Gorman adherent, has also been a consistent follower of the Cleveland administration and will doubtless poll the" bulk of party votes. When the nominations for Governor were called for, . Mr. Grason, of Baltimore, presented the name of ex-Judge William A. Fisher, of Baltimore. His references to Maryland's representatives not represent ing the wishes or their constituents in congress was greeted with loud cries of "Gorman! Gorman!" Mr. Bernard Carter, of the Second legislative district of Baltimore, presented the name of the millionaire merchant, Mr. John E. Hurst, of this city, who, he said, was unpledged and uninfluenced by any one. This statement did not coincide with the views of the crowd, as Hurst is regarded as the Gorman candidate, and a scene of wild confusion ensued, which was only quieted bv a threat to clear the galJeries. Mr. Biedler, of the Third district, of Baltimore, then nominated State Senator Thomas G. Hayes, the champion of reassessment. The convention then proceeded to ballot for the nominee for Governor. The result of the first ballot was: Hurst, 86; Fisher, 31. giving the nomination to John E. Hurst. Jones received four votes which were changed for Hurst when it was seen that Hurst would be the nominee. The platform, which was unanimously adopted, proclaims firm adherence to the Democratic platforms of 1892 and "the unabated confidence in the wisdom, patriotism and fidelity of President Cleveland." "We heartily commend.", it continues, "his administration for the vigor and success with which it has met and overcome the many and great difficulties which the administration of President Harrison and , the Republican party left it to deal with,' and especially commend the courage, sagacity and ability . which It has displayed in Its determined and resolute efforts to rescue the country from the deplorable evils of a fluctuating, unstable and debased currency, and to crush the pernicious financial heresy of the free coinage of silver at tfce ratio of 18 to 1." The repeal of the Sherman law. Is heartily approved, and the federal control of elections opposed. On the tariff question the platform says: "Our . platform denounced the McKlnley tariff law. It has been repealed, .and in its stead we have a law which, while not containing all the advanced advocates of tariff reform hoped would be secured, gives us. nevertheless, the best tariff which the country has had for thlrty-flve years and enables us to exult in the accomplished fact that under its practical operation we have come to the full enjoyment of the blessings of restored confidence and renewed prosperity in all branches of Industry, while at the same time the national treasury will be supplied with revenue sufficient to meet all the obligations of the government and maintain unimpaired its high credit at home and abroad." Charles S. Crothers. of Cecil county, was nominated for Attorney-genral and Marlon Dekalb Smith, of Kent county, for Controller. The convention then adjourned. HALF DOZEN CANDIDATES. Senator Squire Speaks Well of All Wants Convent Ion In 'Frisco. NEW YORK, July 31. Senator Squire, of Washington, Is in the city. He was asked In an interview last night if he had heard any Intimation from the West about presidential candidates and who the West would favor. He said: "You know as much about that as I do. I could talk, probably, about Western favorites, but it would be Idle chatter. Therfe are five or six men to-day whose names are on the tip of every one's tongue as possibilities. There 13 General Harrison. We all know that he drove the stage well one time. The question is do we want him for a driver again? Then comes Thomas B. Reed. He will hold the second place in point of power, in the Speakership, In the gift of the government. To be the unanimous choice of his colleagues in Congress for the speakership is a great thing. He is perhaps the best parliamentarian in the United States. Then there is Morton. He is not a speechmaker or a pyrotechnic statesman. He Is sure, solid and safe. I have been in the Senate with Alli3on for six years and I have studied him carefully. He Is a student, accurate, Judicious, able and approachable. McKlnley I admire. He is, perhaps, a moro sympathetic man than any of the other candidates. Chauncey Depew is brilliant and well poised. He has an accurate and judicial mind and is popular. In fact, there is tot a man prominently named but about whom something nice can be said. The only trouble is that we have an embarrassment of riches. We have excellent timber and yet, as in war times, when the rail splitter came to the front, a man as yet unknown may be chosen and he may prove the equal of our 'monumental President. "The West, I do not think, has made a choice. There is one thing that I want you to put me down as being heartily In favor of. and that is of hcldlng the national convention in San Francisco. I want the East, through her representatives, to come out and see our country. The East stays within itself and never gets away from its -extreme localism. Some one ha3 said that had Columbus discovered the Pacific const there would never have been any New England. Th? West Is like a young giant, just awakening and stretching out his arms to feel his strength. The West wants to enter Into a better fellowship with the East and this Is a chance to accomplish that end. If the convention was held there the railroads wouli arrange to sell tickets so that in returning tourists could pass up through Washington and Oregon. It would be an admirable wav of bringing the East and West together." POP" TICKET NOMINATED. Third Party In Misslsslpiil Announces State Candidates. JACKSON, Miss., July 3L The Populists of Mississippi met in convention at the Hall of Representatives at 11 o'clock this morning. At the afternoon session the report on resolutions was presented and adopted. It reiterates the demands of the Omaha platform and calls on all patriotic citlzns who are dissatisfied with the present re.'gn of ruin to join in the Populist campaign for the free ahd unlimited coinage of both gold and silver at the ratio of 16 to 1; the abolition of national banks and the Issuing of all money by the general government: for a material Increase of per capita circulation: for the payment of the fmblic debt in either gold or silver; against nterest-bearing bonds, and for the tesue of full legal-tender notes to supply all deficiencies in the treasury: to prohibit dealing in futures: for a constitutional amend

Her Husband Leaven vrlth Her S3.0OO the Day After the Welling. BUFFALO. N. Y..' July 31. Charles T. Bakver, until recently a prominent citizen and business man in Jackson, Mich., came to BKiffalo ten days 'ago, with his wife, and took a suite of rooms at the New Continental Hotel. Four daj-s later Mr. Baker disappeared and has not since been heard of. ' His wife has made oyery endeavor to find him and has now called in the assistance of the police. She declares her belief that Baker has been foully dealt with. Baker was about fifty years of age, of medium height, had light hair and mustache and was a gentlemanly-looking man. He seemed to have plenty of money, which he spent 'With a lavish hand. He said he had recently closed out his business in Jackson and that it was his intention, after an Eastern trip, to go to Portland, Ore., and engage in the manufacture of cigars. Mrs. Baker has left the city for the homo of her parents In Clinton, la. She. had, she said, been married to Baker only the day before their coming to Buffalo. Later developments indicate that Baker left after fleecing his newly-made wife of her money some $30,000. Mrs. Baker claims to have given him that much at his request for .safekeeping. BIG BLAZE IN LUMBER 30,000,000 FEET, VALUED AT $400,000, DUIINED AT MENOMINEE. One Entire Street of Buildings for a Time in Danger and Other Towns Called on for Engines. MEXOMINEE, Mich., July 31. The most destructive fire this town has ever known started at 8:30 o'clock this afternoon, and is still burning, although under control. It started in a pile of lath in the yard of A. Spies. As the bunches of lath burned, their binders broke, and7 he bunches spreading open, caused an Intense heat.1 The fire department was promptly on the ground, but in something lessi than , an , hour the" extensive lumber district occupied by the mills of A. Spies, the Glrard Lumber Company and the Bay Shore .Lumber Company was all a sheet of flames.' Assistance cams from Marinetto, Green Bay and -Oshkosh. The mills of the companies named will probably be saved. Hundreds of families in upper Main street owe to Chief Brats, of the local department, the saving of their houses and goods. Conservative estimates place the amount of lumber burned at 30,OCrO.000 feet, valued at HOO.OOO,". Barns, offices and other buildings and property destroyed will easily swell the total loss to $500,000. Spies has no insurance, but the Bay Shore and Girard companies are insured up to four-fifths of their actual value. STRIKE DECLARED OFF 1,100 WIRE-WORKS 31 EX AT CLEVELAND GET AX ADVANCE. Plttsbarnr District Miners Refuse to Accept n Compromise and a Biff Strike Thought Certain. CLEVELAND, fl O.V' July &.A crisis seemed imminent at the American' wire works this morning, where two thousand men. are on strike. The company posted a notice offering to pay JLS5 per day for laboring men, , This wus an advance of 5 cents over the old wage scale and 2 cents less than asked for by the striking laborers. Fifteen hundred' men gathered around the works to-day and as the strikers had avowed thtlr intention of preventing any men . from going to.; work trouble seemed probable and a detalt'bf police were sent to the mill. The day passed, however, without any trouble. Late this afternoou President Savage, of .the American Wire Company, stated that a proposition had been made to the' , strikers which he believed would settle the strike within twenty-four hours. A meeting of -the strikers was immediately called to consider the proposition of the company. Later in the afternoon the 1 company's terms were accepted, the strike declared off and the men will' all return to work between now and Monday. By.' the terms of the agreement the la Wers will get an increase to ' a ' day. to take effect at once. The fine wire drapers get the 10 per cent, advance they " asked for, but in installments, 5 -per 'cent, on Aug. 1 and 5 per cent, on TJov. 1. Tho coarse wire drawers also get the 20 per cent, advance demanded in installments of 5 per cent, on the 1st of August, October, November and January. EleVen hundred men are affected by this advance and it is claimed that the settlement will also decide the strike at the other nail works. Miners Xot- Pleased. PITTSBURG. Pa., July 31. At the conference this, afternoon .between the operators and miners, operators offered a compromise rate to go Into effect intil Nov. 1, when they agree -to pay the"69-cent rate and make the rate general all over the Pittsburg district. It is understood the compromise price was 58 cents. The conference continued until late to-night, but the miners' officials, refused to accept the compromise on the ground that they do not believe all the operators would accept such terms voluntarily. They further state that the chances of a successful strike are greater now than they have been for years because all i the operators are behind on their contracts on account of a car famine. It is held that if the miners are allowed to resume the operators will be in good shape to fight their demands in November, and the strike would have to be made in the winter, months. The compromise will be submitted to the convention to-morrojv, but the miners' officials say that it will be refused and the strike ordered. Promises to lie a Short Strike. NEW YORK, July 31. The principal feature to-day in the tailors strike situation was the issuing of bonded agreements to contractors. Of these 110. representing over eighty shops, furnished the required security, and it is expected that 2.000 coat makers will rex'uma work .Jo-morrow. The strike, though somewhat abated. Is still on, and the strikers declare that they will fight until the contractors have all got in line and acknowledge their defeat by signing the new agreement. About one hundred cloak makers from the factory of B. Gershecel & Son to-day quit work because its proprietors charged the workers with using cotton, instead of silk thread, in the making of garments. This the cloak makers denied and made a demand for an advance of 50 cents a day in the scale of wages, which was refused, and a strike immediately followed. The strikers were reccivd with shouts of applause when they presented themselves at the general headquarters, at Walhalla Hall. Green Glass Men to Be Locked Oat. PITTSBURG. Pa.", July 31. There were fifty factories represented at the green glass workers conference, to-day. It( was decided to refuse the demand of the United Green Glass Workers League for a restoration of the 14 per cent, cut made in ISM, and to declare a lock-out In all union factories, thus throwing out ten. thousand men. Another stumbling block was the fact that the union wanted to continue the rule prohibiting apprentices, -while the manufacturers wanted one apprentice for every ten men. The nonunion operators met with the union manufacturers, and agreed to supply all the orders during tho strike and'o share profits.

CHICAGO NEWSPAPER MAX IX CHARGE OF IXIJIAX SCOtTS. Settlers In Jackson's Hole Still Alive, and Indians Will lie Induced to . Let Them Alone. CHICAGO, July 31. The correspondent with the troops on the way to Jackson's Hole wires to-night that very few of the settlers in the part of the Teton basin, the part of the country through which to day's march has been, have been frightened over the threatened Indian tiouble'. One house at the entrance to the Moose creek canyon was barricaded with a high fence of corral poles and during the period when exciting reports were being brought out from Jackson's Hole the neighboring ranchmen and their families spent the night at this house. This precaution, however, has been abandoned since Sunday, when notice was received that troops were coming. Other ranchmen in the locality were not alarmed at any time. Seven of the twenty-five Jackson's Hole men forming the guard which killed the Bannock Indians who tried to escape while being taken to Marysvale for a hearing before the local justice of the peace have . left Jackson's Hole country for Montana and the others lare now anticipating prosecution. The representative cf the Chicago Record was placed in charge of the Indian scouts to-day. They will go into the mountain south of Marysvale when the troops reach Jackson's Hole, and, if there are Tndians in the region, will hold a conference with them. The officers of the command are convinced, however, that no Indians will be found. Several of thern, who have had considerable experience In dealing with the Indians, assert that the difference between the settlers and the Indians must be settled at once or a border warfare fatal to both Indians and settlers will be inaugurated. CALLS IT AX OUTRAGE. American Missionary Secretary Wants Indians Protected. NEW YORK. July Sl.-Rev. Secretary Ryder, of the Indian department of the American Missionary Association, has been in correspondence with the Interior Department concerning the Bannock Ind:an uprising. As a result of his investigation of the matter. he says: "If ever in the history of our country a protest ought to be raised by Christian people against the slaughter of the Indians it Is now. The Bannocks, under the laws of general government, are allowed to hunt. The game laws of Wyoming forbid this. A party of Bannccks killed a lot of game in Wyoming Territory. They were arrested and while being taken to jail sixteen )f the seventeen were shot down in their tracks unarmed. Those of us who know or the brutal character of many of the wir:te men that live In this Western Territory and their Intense hostility to the Indians have grave suspicion that this was planned in order to kill the Indians. . "General Miles has given his testimony that the Bannocks are among the most peaceful and, on the whole, one of the best tribes on the prairie. Governor Richards, of Wyoming, should at once enforce the laws against the white 'men' that were the first aggressors and then bring the legal matters Into the courts. If the slayers of Indians are promptly arrested and the Bannocks know that they will be impartially tried and severely punished if found guilty the uprising will at once be at an end." Secretary Ryder says he has received assurances from the Department of the Interior that his opinion is correct as to the lawless outrage on the Indians and that this being the case there need "be no apprehension that the United States troops there will use harsh measures against the Indians. No means within the reach of the Department of the Interior, he says, will be spared to bring the guilty parties to Justice. . RESULT OF NEGRO. BIQT...

KAISER AND FIGHTING BOD. A Pretty Lively Xljrht on the I'. S. Crniaer New York. New York Morning Journal. The Emperor's first visit, on June 26, was entirely unannounced. Admiral Kirkland was ashore, and Captain Evans was in his room dressing when the Kaiser's barge came alongside the cruiser at 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Captain Evans had barely time to don his uniform and reach the quarter deck when the Emperor was announced. The Emperor, after an exchange of greetings, said he would like to make a thorough inspection of the New York, and, as he had not announced his coming, asked if the next afternoon would be a convenient time. Capt. Evans consented. Promptly at the hour named. 3 p. m., the following day. Emperor William, accompanied by his brother. Prince Henry of Prussia, and six German admirals, including Admiral ICnor, of the German squadron, boarded the New York from the imperial barge. The Emperor was received by Admiral Kirkland and Captain Evans . and his officers. He carefully examined ail the guns, and asked innumerable questions about them. He also inquired minutely about the construction of tho New York, her speed at sea and in smooth water, the number of officers and men on board, etc. His questions regarding her armaments proved that the ruler of Germany fully understood the subject. He spoke in fluent English. The imperial German standard had 'been ran up at the New York's mainmast, and at sundown the powerful searchlight of the cruiser Columbia was turned on the flag, which floated out in bold relief, clearly denoting to every one the presence of Emperor William on the New York. In the evening an exhibition fire drill was given for the Emperor's benefit, ani then dinner was served. The Emperor lingered at the table, chatting with the New York's officers until 12:45 o'clock, and then, turning suddenly to Captain Evans, said: have not seen the engine rooms. May I look at them now?" Consent was given and the way led to the engine rooms. The Emperor in this inspection was accompanied by Admiral Kirkland, Captain Evans. Chief Engineer Andrale and, Lieutenant Commander SwIfL The Emperor's party remained on deck. After visiting the machine shop the party passed through into the starboard engine room. There the Emperor asked how long it woull take to uncouple the starboard engine. He was astonished when told it could be done in les3 than three minutes. The fact that on the English war ships Blake and Blenheim ia required forty-eight hours to' do this impelled the Emperor , to ask that the work be done on the New York, Four men. working two at a time, uncoupled the New York's starboard engines In just two minutes, and forty-five seconds by the Emperor's own chronometer, and the German ruler was simply astonished. 'He then went into tho fire room and looked at the boilers. "Open that door, please," he said, pointing to one of the connection doors of the tubes. It was opened and the tubes found ia excellent condition. On returning to the gun deck after an absence of thlrty-flve minutes the Emperor was threading his way among tne hammocks in which the men were asleep when he suddenly halted and asked: "How soon could you close the bulkhead doors r "In about thirty-five seconds in the day time and one and a half minutes at night," responded Captain Evans. "Can you do it now?" asked the Emperor, eagerly. It was a strange request at 2 o'clock in the morning, for it meant beating to quarters and clearing away the ship for action. Captain Evans promptly consented, however, and the general call to quarters "was given. Instantly all was life and motion on the big war ship. The men rolled up their hammocks and took their stations, and in exactly one minute and thirty seconds the bulkhead doors were closed, the guns primed and the New York was ready for battle. - "Wonderful!" ejaculated h!s Majesty. Then he complimented the captain and officers on the vessel and declared it to bo the cleanest vessel he had ever boarded. The engine rooms were as clean as a ball room, he said. He then took his leave. What was the astonishment of- Captain Evans the next day to receive a visit from the chief engineer of the imperial yacht Hohenzollen, accompanied by the chief engineers of the entire German squadron, who had been ordered by the German Emperor to inspect the engine and boiler rooms of the New York and learn how such rooms should be kept. RISKED LIFE FOR A riCTTRE. . Secnrln&r n Row View of a War Ship While She Moved at Full Speed. San Francisco Examiner. A hero has already faced the big battle ship Oregon while death seemed riding on her prow. He is a mild-mannered . photographer, but in the background of a negative he secured the other day on the bay is a story covering about three seconds of time which adds heroism to the pssibilltics of his peaceful art. This photographer, expecting to risk death a second later, steadied his camera and clicked the shutter an Instant before a disaster was avrt?d by a Jaair's breadth. The story of how the tug ttockaway, with a photographer on boarj, toarely missed being run down by the Oregon while rushing through the water on a speed trip last Wednesday as told next day In the papers. It was stated then that the photographer had missed the picture he was there to take when the excitement and danger following the misunderstanding about signals occurred, but In fact the picture was successfully, flashed upon the camera in fnt of the rushing man-of-war. The Oregon was making preliminary trial, trips over a straight measured course, and arrangements were made to photograph the waves thrown from her bow from all points of view, to be carefully studied by her builders and by naval experts. C. V. Langc, the official photographer of the Union iron works, on board the little tu? Hockaway, had taken reveral sid and quarter views of the speeding ship, but one was wanted showing the monster feather rolled up by the ship, as nearly as possible from a point squarely In front. Mr. Lange wanted to cross the bow at one hundred yarda to get as' close a view as postlMe, but Captain Jensen, of the tuj would risk .but two hunlreJ yards. It was arranged that the tug should shoot across the Oregon's bow as she came at full

Mmm

0 speed, an arrangement of wh!h Capta'a Goodall. of the Oregon, had no knowledge. When the time for action came, according to stories by men on both tug anf man-of-war, the Hockaway was a shcrt distance in front of the oncoming ship, going about six knots an hour and headed at an angle across the Oregon's course. On the tug beside Mr. Lange was Captain Jensen, the engineer, one deck hand and George Ilatto, of the Tnlon iron work, with a camera. Ilatto snapped his camera a moment before the real danger was apparent. The Oregon gave two blasts of her whistle, to tell the tug that it would pass to starboard. The Oregon was coming like an express train at a sped of eighteen knots, and seconds were precious. Captain Jensen saw two things he could not obey the Oregon's signal, for if he , tried to avoid crossing the Oregon's bow at th speed he was going he wou!d collide with the ship, and he realized In an instant that In arranging the risky experiment he ' had miscalculated th possibilities. H acted instantly and with a cool head, and sounding one whistle to announce that beC would cross In front of the Oregon, 1g naled the engineer for full speed and quickly' steered at the angle most likely to enable the tug to avoid the Oregon's stem. He must beat the Oregon or go down. The vessels were almost together and it was late for the Oregon to swerve either way. On the tug the sense of imminent dangpr was overwhelming. The tug could not baric or swerve, and it was not yet across tho Oregon's course. The speeding monster presented an inspiring spectacle from a point of safety, but to those rquarely In front the death blow seemed inevitable Her prow of steel arose twenty feet to.tbe decks. High above that towered a mass, cf steel turrets and ponderous superstructures. The big fighting tops lifted 10 feet over all. At her stem was a foaming wave that piled twelve feet and spread far on either s!de. Added to the grandeur imparted by her Immensity was the realisation of her resistless power. The shlp would flash by in four or five seconds. On the tug was consternation. To Jump wouli be as fatal a to remain. The captain worked hia wheel and the engineer stood by his lever. Ratto dropi-ed his camera and grabbed a life preserver. The dock hand made fast a doorway. It was at this moment that Large took the picture. "The Oregon was about one hundred, yards awsjV he says, "and seemed to bo coming like a cannon ball. When the dan-, ger flashed upon me I was holding raj , camera, and I wavered with, fright for a. moment. Then as I looked upon the aweinspiring magnificence of the maw of steel above and in front of me and the indescribable beauty of the white, dazzling and foaming wave that glistened in the sun. thera flashed on me an exalted and thrilling sensa of the sublimity and glory of the scene. Every thought, feeling and action was Instant. My judgment told me to drop my camera and ruh for a llfe-presenvr, iut my professional Instincts triumphed, and there came a determination to get that picture, if it was my last. 1 steadied my nerva moment, glanced into the finder and. clicked the shutter. Then, with the camera under one arm, I ran to a stanchion and grasped it. The next moment there was a strange noise of rushing waters that wet the deck.and a violent whirling and pitch-. Ing of the tug in a foaming sea." The tug had Just cleared the stem and -struck the feather of the Oregon a few fret from the stern. The great wave threw the tug off like a cork. The tug had escaped collision by the fraction of a second, and the ship's side flashed by within ten cr twelve feet. The negative of the feather will long be one of Mr. Lange's choicest treasures, and a memento of the most thrilling moment of his life. Pntcrnnl Grief. Rockland Tribune. "Augh-WaughT .
