-Reardon, the Pilot, Practically Ad-
mits That He Made an Error In
Handling the Big Ship.
NEW YORK, Oct. 10.-A reporter went
down to the stranded steamer City of New
York to-day and was welcomed aboard by
Captain E. W. Lewis, who introduced him to
Dennis Reardon, the pilot in charge when she
grounded. Reardon is about forty years old
and has had seven years. experience as
pilot. This is his first accident and he feels
very sore over it. In explaining the matter
he said 1T was making for Gedney's chan.
mel, the entrance to which is marked by two
anchored spars. When about half mile
from the entrance saw pilot boat crossing
our bow and ported to avoid colliding with
her. ran aground before could starboard.
It was the quickest thing ever saw in my
life. You see the helm of this vessel is oper-
sted by hydraulic power and a mere touch
moves it. She went on as easy as sliding off
a log, and here we are. I have taken this
same captain in and out of this port nearly
half dozen times and never went wrong. I
feel very bad about this accident, but am
sure no one will blame me-"
Reardon practically admitted that he had
made an error in handling the ship. Cap
tain Lewis did not care to talk much and he
was very busy giving orders about the dis
embarkation Of the passengers and attending
to the comfort of the people. Some of the
other officers were more communicative and
they seemed to doubt Reardons skill as q
navigator. While Reardon Gays the vessel
settled at once, they claim she rocked
and shook for some time after ground
ing, and there was much excitement
and alarm on board, especially among the
steerags passengers. Many of the latter
made threats against the pilot, but the Off
GERS quickly put stop to these utterances.
The passengers of tina steamer were all
brought to the city to-day by boats sent
down for that purpose. They were all in
bad humor and loud in denunciation of
Pilot Reardon. The vessel lies apparently
easy directly in the path of incoming and
outgoing steamers. 1t is thought she will
not be damaged unless storm comes. A
final attempt to float her will be made to-
night. If this is unsuccessful her cargo will
have to be lightered before she can be got
of,

Entertainments.

The Madison Square Theater success, "Jim
the Penman," was presented at Proctor's
New Haven Opera House last evening by q
competent and evenly-balanoed company.
The play has been seen here several times
during past seasons and the plot is familiar
to most of our theater-geers. Mr.. A. NJ.
Palmer has succeeded in collecting COM
pany which compares very favorably with the
company that originally presented the play.
The ''James Ralston" Of Mr.. Joseph Whiting
was an unusually artistic portrayal of the
character. Captain Redwood" as presented
by Mr.. Louis Baker was excellent, and the
"Baron Hartfeldt" of Charles Kent in good
hands, though somewhat weak as compared
with the younger Salviai's rendition of the
character here last season. Miss Ellie Wilton
as "Nina," the forger's wife, is a capable
actress and fully up to the requirement. of the
character, and especially strong in the scene
where she recognizes the forged letter written
by her husband. "Jim the Penman" will re-
main for the balance of the week, with a
matinee on Saturday, and the general supe-
riority Of the revival warrants large audi

A FINANCIAL PLAN.

Wants a Company with a Capital of
$15,O0O,OOO to Take Charge of the
Fair.
NEW YORK, Oct. 10.-John White, who
has Offices in the Kemble building at 25
Whitehall street, has formulated financial
plan for the Worlds fair. He states that the
railroad companies, the steamboat lines and
the elevated roads of this city and Brooklyn
will be the largest immediate bene6ciaries of
the exposition, and he argues that these com-
panies should be first asked to subscribe to
the stock to be issued by the Columbia
Worlds Fair company, which shall have a
capital of Sill, ZOO, 900. divided into shares Of
$40 each.
About 81, 900, 900 more will be needed, and
this can be secured subsequently from mon
eyed institutions. He estimates the cost of
constructing buildings at SIS, 1000, 600, and
that clerk hire and incidental expenses will
reach $2,000,000. Admission fees of fifty
cents each and other sources of income would
yield, he says, twice the capital invested,
enabling the management to redeem the
cent.
At to-day's meeting of the general commit
tee on the worlds fair the reports of the COM
mittees on site, finance, legislation and per-
manent organization were submitted and dis
eussed. It was decided to raise 5000, 1000 by
voluntary subscriptions for immediate re-
quirements preliminary to the $4,000, 900
guarantee fund proposed by the finance COM
mittee.
The various reports were adopted as here
tofore published. The site chosen includes
such parts of Central Park north of 9th
street as may be found necessary.
