A Mount Washington Story.
Mount Washington despatch says:


On Sunday morning young man from
Portland, Mr.. Payson Smith, and young
lady, started to walk to the Glen. They ar
rived there all right, bnt while they were on
their way bach storm arose. Tho gravest
Of fears we're entertained for their safety,
and team was sent from the house to meet
them. This returned without them, and the
greatest alarm prevailed.
Late In the afternoon the two however re-
turned, completely exhausted. They had
one of the most narrow escapes ever 70
corded In this section. Their story Is rs
follows: ave started back from the Glen
and as IL was clear, we thought we would
come back through Tuckerman's RaviuP,
so we left the carriage road and started on
the ravine path. We got along all right until
we got blinded with cloud. Then we had to
wade streams TO our knees. When he got to
Tuckerman's 10 was dark and our clothes
we're as wet as water could make them. The
cloud was dense and we had tn scale a cliff
called Ravine Wall. Neither Of us had ever
been there before, so we did not know what
was ahead. All we had to follow was splash
es of paint on the rocks" MIR. Smith would
leave the young lady In a safe place and
search for another splash Of paint and then
call to her.
Once the young lady sat down aud said,
"Oh, 60 home and leave me here" or course
this would not do, and so'the two struggled
along.
The distance over the rocks over which
they went Is said to be at least two miles, and
there are cliffs there where one misstep
means instant death. 1t was miracle that
the two were saved.

MuTINY ON TaE DIRIco.
A New York Paper's Story ofthe Loss
of leary's Logs.

reporter OF the New York Star has been
talking with Mr.. Leary's son regarding the
loss Of those eight sections OF raft on the
Maine coast. The Star says young Mr..
Leary admitted that when off Seal Harbor
the sections OF the rear towed by the Dlrigo
were In the breakers and were steadily pull
ing the Dirigo toward the rocky shore. Up
to this the crew Of the Dlrigo had been
grum5ling at the captain and asking why he
did not cut the load loose and save his boat.
He made every effort to pull the logs out OF
the surf In which they were beating, but IL
was useless. Finally the engineer and fire.
man Of the Dlrigo mutinied and threatened
to throw the captain overheard il he did not
cut loose. As the tug was being pulled into
the huge white breakers, one of the men cut
away the hawser and the tug got out Of dan
ger, leaving the eight sections to their fate
A few hours Of the terri fic humping reduced
the sections to shapeless masses Of timber
and soon 4500 logs were adrift on the ocean.
and Mr.. Leary is out nearly S5OOO The Di-
rigo then went to the assistance of the Storm
King, which was trying to save the six sec
tions Of its raft from the fate which had be-
fallen the others. A strong hawser was
passed with great difficulty between the d.
rigo and Storm King, and the two tugs soon
had the other raft out of danger. The DIri-
go took charge of the raft when the storm
had abated, and tie Storm King put back to
Rockland for slight repairs to her machinery.
When she returned she found the sea COW

the raft.

THE SHAW ESTATE,
In Connection With the Failure of
Potter, Lowell & Co.

BOSTON, August 29-In connection with
the Potter Lowell failure 1t Is understood that
the reason why attachments were placed
upon the Shaw estate and Messrs. David
Cummings q Co.. is that there was discov-
cred among the effects Of Messrs. Potter,
Lowell 6 Co. note for large amount of c.
w. Clements, trustee. 1t is said that the
note was for between $500, 900 and 81 ,0OO, COO
and that the bill in equity was brought to
cover this. Although there were rumors Of
possible assignments to come, none had been
recorded up to noon. Mr.. Cummings says
he feels confident that his house will weather
the storm.
The formal record at the registry of deeds
shows that an attachment for s., 100000 was
placed in behalf of William A. Haskell, as
signee for the Potter Lowell Company on the
property of David Cummings, Porter E. Cum
mings, Charles T. Ferguson, Arthur FL. Lor-
ing and Charles w. Clements and others.
When Messrs. f. Shaw s. Bros, failed in
1888. Mr.. Ferdinand A. Wyman was made
assignee of the estate. Mr. Wyman subse-
quently sold the assets of the concern to a
syndicate for $500, 900. Messrs. David Cum
mlngs & Co.. and M. G.. w. Clement were
members Of this syndicate, Cummings &
Go. being cestui que trust under Clements
declaration Of trust immediately after he
bought the estate of +. Shaw 81 Bros. This
syndicate was organized largely through the
cHOIbS OI W6SSrS. 1Ott6r, LOV6ll O 20. Inc
business has been conducted under the name
of "Charles w. Clement. trustee" and his
paper has been negotiated by Potter, Lowell
d Co. On Thursday Mr.. Clement allowed
his notes to go over. and the assignee of Pot
ter, Loyell & Co.. who holds some Of his
paper, brought bill in equity against the
parties In interest in the estate of F. Shaw
& Bros, and levied attachments on the real
estate. They also put a keeper in the store
Of g. W. Clement, trustee" on High street.
Messrs. David Cummings & Co., one of the
parties involved. as mentioned above, are
manufacturers Of shoes, with an Office at 10
High street, Boston, and factories at Wor-
cester, Mass, and South Berwick, Me. The
members of the firm are David Cummings,
Porter e. Cummings, Charles II. Ferguson
and Arthur Fl. Loring. The firm are said to
have exchanged paper somewhat with
Messrs. Potter. Lowell & Co., but their fu-
ture cannot be determined until something
Is definitely known as to the course to be
pursued by that banking house. Mr.. Cum
mings claims to have assets amounting to be-
tween $600,000 and $650,000, with liabilities
of from $3.50, 900 to $500, 900.
