BROUGHT DOWN ON LADDERS
Tenants Pauic-Stricken at a Small
williamsburg Fire.
Started In the Cellar Of Ex- Alderman
McGrath's Saloon.

A fire, which did but $500 damage. in
Williamsburg, this morning created
more excitement than II whole row
of houses had been burned down.
Eight or ten people were brought down
on ladders. a fireman gave an interest
ing exhibition of his ability as a gym
mast, while a score OF men frightened
the women who were looking on by
saying that the blaze was of incendiary
origin, and that the proba were
that the whole ward would soon be de-
stroyed.
Ex-Alderman Daniel McGrath owns
the finest saloon in the Fourteenth
Ward. 1t Is located on the ground
floor of the four-story brick building at
ls3 Bedford avenue, the apartments
above being occupied by families.
At o'clock this morning smoke was
seen issuing from the cellar. and the
turned in an alarm. The engines rat
tied up, and the people In the upper
floors leaned out of the windows, WON
dering where the fire was.
Suddenly the smoke came out in n
thick cloud and enveloped the stair
ways. The. people thought all escape
was cut of and cried and shrieked
hysterically. The firemen then quickly
ran up their extension ladders.
Owen Savage. of engine company a.
was ahead of them. He got a short
ladder and climbed on top of the iron
awning of the saloon, and from there
climbed up the shutters to the fourth
story.
Mrs. Mary Qualey. ffty-nve years old
was standing at the window and was
just preparing to jump when the fire.
man appeared. Savage quieted her, and
all the people on that floor remained
quiet until the extension ladders were
put up. and they were brought down in
safety.
In the mean time Patrolmen Nc
Donald and Mclaughlin had taken a
ladder to the rear OF the saloon and
brought down Mary Ryan, sixty five
years old; Lizzie Mullin, twenty-four
years old. and Lille Mulln, two years
old. AS soon as she reached the side
walk Lizzie Mull!n went into Mysteries
and had to be attended by an ambulance

POISON ENDS ABUSE.
A Wife Beaten Kills Himself
When Threatened with Arrest.
He Formerly Was Very Success sfuI
as a Salesman.
Took to Gambling and Then Refused
to Work.

Morris Cripple, forty years old. OF 81
Chrystio street, died at Gouverneur Hos
pital at an early hour this morning as a
result of having taken poison at his
home a few hours previous with suicidal
intent.
The mans death reveals a terrible
story of cruelty and ill-treatment, which
the man has heaped upon his poor
wife and four children for years. HIS
wife's refusal to stand 1t any longer
and threat to have him arrested was
the cause of the mans suicide.
Cripple came from Russia eighteen
years ago. He was then Industrious. and
soon became an expert salesman. Eleven
years ago he married and Immediately
afterward he began to ill-treat his wife.
He became an inveterate gambler. and all
his earnings were spent at the gaming
table.
Shortly after his marriage he lost his
position and then made his wife go out
and hunt for work. From that time he
work to support him and the family.
Added to this he was abusive, and
beat his wife in brutal manner. On
several occasions neighbors have had TO
About two years ago they went to
live on the first floor of the tenement
house at "a Chrystle street. There is a
policy shop conducted in the front of
the place. and there Gpple spent most
of the money his wife earned oy scrub
bling.
AT last it became so bad that the poor
woman could stand II no longer. She
made known her intention of leaving
him last Thursday, whereupon Gippel
flew, into a rage and beat her in a
frightful manner. She then procured a
summons in the Essex Market Police
Court, but when her husband discovered
this he kept out of the road.
About o'clock last night he returned
home in suller mood. and immedia te-
began abusing his wife. She asked hin,
to leave, whereupon he grabbed a table

6 PASSENGERS HELD,
Excitement on the Steamship
Vera at Quarantine.
Immigrant lucchis Sudden and
Mysterious Illness.
Sent to Hoffman Island with His
Party for Observation.

Considerable excitement was caused
among the l64 cabin and 2lS steerage pas
senEers on the North German Lloyd
steamship Wcrra when on arriving at
Quarantine, from Genoa. Monday,
the Health Officer sprang on board and
began making close examination Of
nearly all the passengers.
AS this is the usual custom when an
ocean vessel arrives the Captain and
crew thought nothing OF It, 1t was diff
ferent. however, when six OF the steer
age passengers-two men, one woman
and three children-were ordered to stand
aside for more careful examination.
Whatever the health officers saw in
| their appearance, certain it is that the
six passengers referred to were taken
off the vessel and sent down the bay to
Hoffman Island.
There they viii be carefully watched,
and II nothing OF dangerous illness
manifests itself, hhey will be allowed
to land in ew days.
The most surprised Official on board
the Vera was the regular ship physi-
clan, DR.. Dursch. He had been of the
opinion that all the passengers were
the very moment Quarantine was reach
| self.
Just when the Quarantine officers
| climbed on board. and when the pas
| sengers and crew were crowding over
to the, rails, the first suspicious case ap-
peared.
One of the steerage passengers was
named Egziacca Lucchi. He had, ac-
cording to DR.. DuIsch, been one OF the

approached him, the man became sick
10 his stomach, and the resulting symp-
toms wers suchthat the officers were
considerably startled. When they felt
the mans pulse they were by no means
| reassured.
The woman. the other man referred to,
and three children wer all of one party,
and while no alarming symptoms were
seen in any Of the latter, Ii was de-
cided to take all to the island for inves-
| tigation.
There was at first considerable dis
cussion as to whether or not the Werra
| itself. as well as all on board. should
! be detained. This OF course, produced
the liv'iest kind of protest, which event.
ually succeeded.
Evidently the health officials did not
consider the illness, whatever 1t was, of
particularly contagious nature. 9th
erwise.. they would undoubtedly have
/ held all.
The Werra, after a few hours was al
| lowed to proceed on her way and later
the passengers were landed at her pier

TEN MEN EXECUTED.
Revolutionists Attempted to As
sassinate Hippolyte's Daughter.
The Haytian President Ordered
Them Arrested and Shot.
The Attempt Intended to Endanaer
His Life, II Is Believed.

The steamship Ozama. of the Clyde
line. arrived early this morning from
Haytian ports. Authentic and reliable
reports from the Haytian capital state
that President Hippolyte Is in a very
dangerous condition. He is extremely
nervous and liz suffering from heart
trouble. Any sudden shock and excite
ment, 1t is said. endanger his life.
In order to hasten this end his enemies
in the revolutionary party, about Aug.
% last attempted to assassinate the
Presidents married daughter, who re-
sides with him at his palace at Port au
Prince. The attempt proved failure.
Hippolyte at once ordered the arrest
OF ten men among the revolutionists who
he believed were the instiGators of the
plot. These men were arrested and shot
within twenty-four hours.
Great excitement prevailed over the
attempted plot to kill the Presidents
daughter. and much trouble is antlci-
pated, owing to the condition of the
President and his expected demise.

FOR The INSURGENTS?
$4,000 Cartridges Arrive in Ha-
vana from This Port.
They We're Packed in Casks and
Labelled "Tal,oW."
Ward Line Officials Much Exercised
Over the Shipment.

The news from Havana, which reached
here to-day, that 1900 cartridges, which
had been shipped from New York, had
been seized by the officials at the former
port. caused considerable excitement
among Spaniards and Cubans generally.
1t was at once concluded that the
Cubans were again preparing for re-
volt, and that the seized ammunition
was some of that sent on by the revo-
lutionary leaders who are located here.
The cartridges referred to were sent
to Havana by the Ward line steamship
Yumuri, which arrived there on Aug.
2s They were packed In nine casks
and labelled "Tallow." The customs
officials, however, became suspicious.
and on opening the casks, instead Of
tallow, the cartridges We're found The
Yumuri was searched thoroughly, but
nothing else OF an alarming nature was
discovered.
Commodore Hughes. who directs the
business of the Ward line at this port,
when seen at his office. ll3 Wall street
by an Evening World" reporter, said
| that he had received n despatch from
Havana similar to that Outlined above.
He would not say however, whether
| the cartridges had been sent down by
revolutionists, or whether 1t was a
smuggling scheme In order to cheat the
duty.

1t now. To do SO would only serve to

QUEENSTOWN, Sept. l2.-The little
schooner Nina. Capt. Fritsch, arrived
here to-day from New York.
The Nina sailed from New York on
Sunday, Aug. s. She left the Battery
in tow of the tug McCaldin Brothers at
I o'clock in the afternoon. and at
o'clock in the evening OF the following
day she was spoken by pilot boat No.
6, fifty miles east southeast of the High
lands, making good Roadway.
She thus makes the trip across the
Atlantic in thirty-eight days, remark
able time for such a craft. and only
nine days behind the time made by the
yacht Nalkyrie, when she returned to
England from this country. The Nina is
a schooner-rigged sharpe, AZ feet over
all.
She was brought her by Capt. Fritsch
from Milwaukee in June last. When he
arrived here Capt. Frtsch was without
funds and put his boat on exhibition
for the purpose of obtaining the amount
necessary to provision and equip the
crat before undertaking his voyage
across the Atlantic,
The boat commanded considerable at
tention, and with the funds thus raised,
together with the assistance of his
Swedish friends here, the captain had
the Nina put in readiness for the trip.
In shipping circles considerable doubt
was expressed as to the ability of the
Nina to cross the ocean in safety. Capt.
Fritsch was the only soul on board
the Nina
