FIRE IN Her HOLD.
Steamship Yucatan Arrives in
Port Just in Time.
Is There a Plot to Destroy New York
and Cuba Steamships
One Of the Line Burned and Dyna-
mite Secreted on Another.

The steamship Yucatan. OF the New
York and Cuba line. arrived in port this
morning with fire in her hold.
1t was discovered about 100 last night,
and the crew worked hard to prevent
the flames from spreading.
Only a few months ago the City Of Alex
andria, of the same line, was burned at
sea and several lives were lost. The ves-
sci was entirely destroyed.
Some weeks later dynamite cartridges
were found in the cargo Of the City Of
Washington. also Of this line. 1t was
supposed that they were placed there
with the object OF destroying the vessel
by somebody in Mexico who had a griev-
ance against the Company.
When the Yucatan passed Quarantine
this morning the fire appeared to be
under control, and 1t was expected that
It would be confined to The compartment
in which It broke out. There was no
excitement among the passengers and
perfect discipline prevailed with the
crew.
The steamer did not stop at Quar-
%antine, but was boarded by the Health
Officer In the lower bay, while he was
on his way from Quarantine to Hoff-
mans Island. This was very fortunate.
as 1t prevented delay al Quarantine.
The compartment on fire Is loaded
with hemp. cigars and other combusti-
BILE articles. and what is not burned
is ruined by water poured into the com
partment.
The Yucatan came UP to her dock. OIL
South street. about IL o'clock. Capt,
Downs refused to talk or allow anyone
on board.
A passenger told an Evening World
reporter hat the fire was said to have
originated from a cigarette.
He said the fire was in the after holt
among 7ss bales Of hemp. seven cases o.
feathers and a lot Of fruit.
A valuable horse consigned to Raphael
Tovimi is also in the hold.
All the matches are nailed down. but as
the ship came up to the dock smoke be.
gan pouring out OF her sides.
Three tugs were near to assist in put.
ting out the flames.

Arrangements Under Way to Try
the Scheme on the New
Lenox Avenue Line.
SOMEWHAT LIKE THE CABLE.
If Everything Goes Well the Plan
May Be Adopted on the Com
pany's Entire System.

II the plans upon which the offices Of
the Metropolitan Traction Company are
hard at work, can be successfully car
ried out, New Yorks will. in the near
future, see the trolly in full operation in
in this city. That much was admitted
by the Company's President. Mr.. Vree-
land this morning to an Evening
World" reporter.
Lenox avenue, upon which the right
to lay tracks was granted to the Com
pany by the Board of lderman. is the
place decided upon for the trolley ex-
pertinent to be tried. For months the
Company has been at work upon the
scheme. but the affair was kept quiet
after the Lenox venue franchise had
been secured.
Instead of the trolley wires being
them laid underground. The connection,
1t is expected. will be somewhat after
the fashion of the present cable ar
rangement.
The officials are aware Of the strong
opposition which the overhead wires
would meet with. They also believe
that with the wires underground the
danger to life would not only be les
sened. but largely lone ava with.
How far the Company has gone with
the experiments. Mr.. Vreeland refused
to say. He intimated pretty plainly,
however, that the Lenox avenue SER
vice would be operated by no other
system than the trolley, and that II tn.
experiment was satisfactory every road
operated by the Company would be
equipped with the underground trolley
I'VE are not yet in a position to give
