miles OF Evanston. In reply to her
whistles Of distress, the life-saving crew
from Evanston was sent to her and tugs
were sent from Chicago. The lights Of the

was current in this city last night that the
passenger steamer Nyack. which left here
on Saturday night on her first trip to the
Worlds fair, had aoundered in . gale.
The rumor could not be traced to no au-
thentic source and no report has been re-
ceived At the docks here confirming the
rumor in any way. The slow steamer
Avon which also left here ON Saturday
night returned yesterday and reported
that she turned back on account of tho
gale and that the Nyack was ahead of her
when she turned about. The report il not
given credence. 1t is thought likely that
it sprung from the fact Of the gale and this
being the maiden trip of the Nyack. A
large company of people were on board.
including many Buffalonians and many
others from Western New Y York.
