 "What would I do?'' she asked, look ing up with fling of her head and an expression of sudden interest that it was worth $S.50 to simply see for those three seconds; ''why, would marry"
 indicated my perplexity. "What dc you mean?" I asked. "You don't pre- tend that you haven't"
 'I simply mean that can't afford to marry now. Of course, have plenty of chances. Who hasn't? Have you seen the census reports? There are 2,O00, ,000 more men than women in the United States. I could marry a man with barrel of money within twenty four hours. But want my independ- ence, and would be a fool to swap the independence I have for the gilt-edged slavery I would have to endure if I, with no money, married even man with plenty of it. If had a million in my own right I could marry and be glad I was living. That's what l mean," and she went on c1ick-clicking

expemnon.
 By July 17 the Molly's Hope was ready to put to sea. Mrs. Allaire went on board in the morning in order to exact a last promise from Capt. Willis to do everything in his power to discover traces of the lost ship. She had no doubt in her own mind that he would succeed. They would bring John, they would bring his crew back with them. In tone of such profound conviction did she repeat these words that the crew broke out in applause. Every man on board was infected with her deep faith, as were the friends and relatives who had come to see the Mclly's Rope sail"
 Turning to Mrs. Allaire and Andrew Hollister, who stood by her side, Capt. Willis cried out:
 ''In your presence, madam, and in yours, MT. Hollister, in the name of my officers and my crew, I make solemn oath not to be discouraged by any dan ger or any fatigue in my search for Capt. John and the men of the Dread naught. This vessel which you, madam, have fitted out, bears the name of Mol ly's Hope. I shall take care that she deserves it."
 ''With the aid of God and of the de- votion of those who put their faith in HimI" exclaimed Mrs. Allaire.
 ''Hurrahl Hurrahi for John and Mol ly Allairer'
 These cheers were taken up and re peated by the vast assemblage gathered on the wharf.
 The lines were now cast off and the Molly's Hope, under the pressure of the first revolutions of her screw, moved of away from her moorings and headed for the narrows. She soon left the cape on the southwest and steaming boldly out to sea disappeared from the gaze of the thousands who had collected to wish her Godspeed!

 ence To-Day.
 CHICAGO, Sep. 12.-Grand Master Will kinson of the Order of Trainmen held a conference yesterday with several men occupying various positions in the rail- road labor organizations. The conference was held behind closed doors. Two representatives of local aailroad labor or ganizations were closeted with the com pany for over two hours. It is said the subject under discussion was the trouble on the Reading.
 MT. Wilkinson is now on his way to Philadelphia to meet the heads of the other railroad organizations. As to the anticipated strike, this is what MT. Wilkinson had to say: q cannot tell yon anything of the matter beyond this: For & long time the men on the Reading Rail- road have been complaining of the treat ment they received. Now they have or ganized."
 It is the opinion of Chicago men that a general strike on the Reading Road is inevitable.
 PHILADELPHIA, Sep. 12. = The most prominent labor leaders in the country will be present at the conference with President Mcleod to-day at the Read- ing Railroads general offices in this city, They will include Chief Engineer P. M. Arthur of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, P. H. Morrissey, Chief of the Brakemen's Union; s. A. Wilkinson, Chief of the Trainmen's Brotherhood; ; Chief Ramsay of the Order of Railway Photographers and Chief Clark of the Order | of Railway Conductors.
 F. P. Sargent, the head of the Brother hoad of Locomotive Bremen, who is in Cincinnati, was telegraphed to attend, but replied that the business of the an nua1 convention would prevent him.
 As President Mcleod will undoubtedly adhere to his declaration that all em- ployes must be members of the Reading Relief Association and that no new men will be hired on the Reading system who belong to any labor organization or will join such, the outcome of the conference is awaited with interest.

CHAPTER XI.

THE FIRST ATTEMPT TO FIND CAPT. JOHN.
 After run of twenty-two hundred miles, the Molly's Hope came in sight of Mount Kea towering fifteen hundred feet above the islands of Hawaii, which is the most southerly of the Sandwich islands. In addition to five large islands and three small ones, this group contains a number of islets upon which there was no need of searching for traces of the Dread naught- It is quite evident that this shipwreck would have been known long ago if it had taken place on any one of the numerous reefs of this archi- pelago, not even excepting those of Medo-Manon which are only inhabited by countless numbers of sea fowls. The Sandwich islands are in reality
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1892-09-12

 quite densely populated, Hawaii alone having hundred thousand inhabitants, and had the Dreadnaught been wrecked on these coasts the news of the disaster would most surely have been sent to Washington by the American commer- cial agents resident on the islands.
 Anyway, four years before this, when Capt. Willis spoke the Dread naught, the two ships met to the vest ward of the Sandwich group. Molly's Hope now continued her course to the southwest across this wonderful ocean which well merits it's name during the several months of the warm season.
 Six days later the fast steamer had crossed that imaginary line running north and south by which geographers separate Polynesia and Micronesia. Capt. Willis had no reason to search l this western portion of the Polynesian waters, but beyond them, the Micro nesian seas swarmed with islands, islets and reefs which it now became the perilous duty of the Molly's Hope to search for traces of a wreck.
 On August 9 they touched at Odia, the largest of the Marshall group, wis tied by Kotzebue and the Russ ians in 1877. This group is spread out over a | space thirty miles east and west by thirteen miles north and south and doesn't contain fewer than sixty-five | islets or attolons. Although the Mol l ly's Hope might have taken on a supply of fresh water in a few hours from this island, yet she prolonged her stay for | five days.
 Lowering his steam launch Capt. Willis was able to convince himself that no ship had been lost on these reefs during the four years just past. They noticed some drift. wood along the shore of the Mulgrave islands, but it was only the trunks of fir trees, palms and bamboos used by the natives in building their pirogues, and had no doubt been caught in the ocean cur rents Willis learned from the chief of Odia island that since 1879 there had only been a report of one wreck on the eastern attoolns and that was an Eng lishbrig, the crew of which had later been taken off.
 Once outside of the Marshall archi- pelago the Molly's Hope turned her head towards the Caroline islands. On his way, by means of his steam launch, Willis made the circuit of Ualan island but without any results. On Septem- Der he entered that vast archipelago known as the Caroline islands, taking for the headquarters of his operations the island of Yap which is one of the five hundred islands making up the Car oline group. From this point the cap tain pushed his investigations in all directions.
 The devotion of his men was beyond praise. Not a murmur was heard or account of the dangers and fatiguel connected with the task of exploring these countless reefs and passing through these narrow channels, tn. bottoms of which bristled with coral laceous growths. Besides, the pleasan season was now over, and there wer, already reminders of those terribl, gales which send so many ships to tn, bottom. Every day the ships boat searched for creeks and coves int. which the currents might have cas- some bit of the wreck In all these ex cursions the men were well armed, fo it was far different work from tn search for Sir John Franklin whicl took place on the upinhahitsd shnzAA Q

MT, Peck was seen at his home to-day and said: ''The report is perfectly ridiculous. 1 have no intention of resigning and mo- body has mentioned such thing to me. You may say that there is no truth in it.''
 It is said that Mir. Peck's counsel will try and secure delay at Kingston, and that even if Judge Fursman gets out a writ of peremptory maudamus, allowing E. Ellery Anderson to look over MT. Peck's figures, restraining order will be inn mediately issued by some other judge in the Supreme Court.
