A TIME OF PERIL.
Fire in the Coal Bunkers of the Steamer
Capac-It Was a Close Call.

New YORK, Sept. 15.-W. r. Grace
& Co.'S steamer Capac, which arrived
from Chilian ports this morning, had
an exciting experience with fire in
her coal bunkers. On August IL, in
latitude A south, longitude 81 west,
fire was reported in the amidships
bunker, where 600 tons of coal were
sto.,ed. A line of hose was at once
STRETCHED and stream of
WATER POURED ON THE COAL,
with the result of partially smothering
the: fire. The fumes of coal gas were
so powerful that the men on deck were
made dizzy. BY August II the fire
seemed to be out and the bunl1ers ap-
peared cool, but on the evening of the
same day the fire became worse. and in
spite of all efforts to subdue it, grad
ually burned it's way through the
bunkers, and coal and ashes fell into
the bilge,
CHOKING THE BILGE PUMP
so that it was impossible to free the
hold of the water that was being poured
into the burning bnnkers. The Capac
was at once headed for Rio Janeiro
The night of August IS was one of
great anxiety. The cargo consisted
mainly of nitrate of soda in bags.
This is
ALMOST AS BAD AS GUNPowDER
as regards inf1ammatory qualities, and
for time it seemed as if the fire would
work its way through the partition
walls and ignite the nitrate. In fact so
real did this danger become that Capt.
Thomas ordered the boats swung out
on the davits. provisioned and made
ready for lowering.
AFTER ALMOST sUPERHUMAN EFFORTS
on the part of the crew the fire ap-
peared to lessen in intensity, and. to
the relief of all, the entrance to Rio
Janeiro harbor was sighted in the
morning. Firemen from the city as
sisted the worn-out crew, and finally |
men were lowered into the bunker and |
the coal was hoisted up in baskets. |
The men could only work
A FEW MINUTES AT A TIME,
but finally, after removing several hun
dred tons, the fire was reached and |
quickly extinguished. The damage to
the ship was not large. 1t is not
known whether the cargo is hurt. The
cause of the fire was undoubtedly
combustion.

tack at Wei-Hai-Wei Under Cover of
Friendly Saiutes-isut For Their Action
the Chinese Fleet Might Have Been De-
stroyed
NEW YORK. Sept. t5.-The Herald
prints the following translation Of a
message from a japanese correspondent
serving with the Japanese fleet, under
date of August IL, the publication of
which was prohibited by the Japanese
government, on the alleged ground
that it would stir up anti-British feel
ing in Japan and thus imperil the
safety of British subjects in that
country.
A SMART BhITISH TRICK
AT l o'clock Yesterday morning the
18th of August, our fleet, consisting of
twelve men-of-war and fiotilla of six
torpedo boats, took advantage of the
darkness of night, and crept INTO the
harbor of Wei-Hai-Wei, unknown to
the Chinese in the forts and vessels.
Six torpedo boats We're sent out with
the purpose of
BLOWING Up TIE CHINESE WAR SHIPS
anchored within. The f1otilla was PRO
ceeding III the wrong direction, and
then, discovering their mistake, thev
turned back, changed course and made
straight1o the place where the Chinese
lay in safety. When midway a British
man -of-war, which was anchored there,
fired salutes for the Japanese vessels,
very unusual thing to do in such oir-
| cumstances. Upon this
ALL THE FL ECTRIC AND SEARCH LIGHTS
at the forts were in activity. An ex-
/ change of shots Tor over an hour fol-
! lowed. Seeing that their plan to take
the Chinese by surprise fell through,
on account of the salutes from the
British, and further firing being of no
avail.
THE JAT ANESE RETIRED.
As the torpedo fio5illa was returning
Chinese torpedo boat discharged q
| torpedo against it. but failed to do any
| damage and for its trouble was in-
stantly rewarded by being sunk by a
torpedo discharged by one Of the Japa-
nese boats.
| LOOKED UPON AS SIGNALS.
| The saIutes from the british vessel
| can not but be regarded as signals to
make the slumbering Chinese know of
the presence of the Japanese, as it is
| not customary to fire salutes at dead
! of night. --~------

A stolen Badge on a Corpse.

Some time ago Mr. c. \. Strother, of
Lincoln, Ga. lost a Masonic badge by
theft. He was anxious to recover it,
and instituted vigorous search He
found that negro woman in the
neighborhood had been seen with the
badge He went to her and threatened
to prosecute her if she did not return
it to him. She told him tnat it had
been buried on negro girl that had
died in the neigkborhood two weeks
before. 1t seems that n preparing the
body for burial pin was needed to
fasten the clothing. SO the woman took
the badge and used it for this purpose.
BY consent of the girls parents the
body was taken up and the badge was
found and recovered. Mr.. Strother
priced the badge on account of the
great length of time it had been in tho
family, and now an additional interest
will be attached to it.

THROUGHOUT LOUISIANA.
A Sad Railroad Accident.

A bad wreck occurred the other day
on the Shell Beach branch of the New
Orleans & Southern near New Orleans.
David Crawford, the engineer, was
found pinioned to the ground by the
heavy tank of the engine. He was in
great agony. and called out to those
around to cut his leg off to release him
from the torture. By hard work he was
finally extricated from his awful posi-
ton. In the first coach, which was the
only one that turned over, was found
Willie Flick a youth The little fel-
low was held down by some benches,
and he was suffering greatly. 1t did
not take the pa rty of rescuers long to
take him out of the coach and lay him
on the ground. where he was attended
to by some of the men in the virins y.
Low means issued from underneath
the coach, ana it was found that
Julius Applehaus. aged IL. OF Poydras
juno ton, was there. The poor little
fellow was in great misery, and he
teebly cried to the men to take n N
from under the heavy coach. His legs
were held fast, and it was pltiful to
hear the boy crying for mercy The
men worked like Trojans to get the
boy out from under the coach, and after
ten minutes OF labor they succeeded in
dragging forth the mangled form of the
sufferer. One of those about him asked
the dying boy if he had anything to
say. The boy nodded, and the man
stopped down by him and asked Apple
haus to tell him what he desired
Please tell my mother if ! ever did
anything wrong to forgive me-
The words had hardly died on his
lips when Applehaus closed his eyes
and was dead. His mother was made
aware If the accident which mad be
fallen her boy, and she was heart
broken.
Surgeons found It necessary to am
putate the right leg of the Flick boy.
The flesh on the thigh, from the knee
to nearly the hip, was badly lacerated
and torn.
Engineer Crawford will recover.
