her aside and went into the parlor.
There they demanded Of this woman
that she at once send for locksmth

Mrs. Brush, although knowing that

WHAT Wreck IS THIS?
The Trave Discovers a Sunken
Vessel off Fire Island.
II Is Surmised that She Was in
Collision in the Recent Fog.
Whether Her Crew Were Lost or
Carried Away Is Unknown.

The North German Lloyd liner Trave
which arrived to-day from Bremen, re-
ports that she sighted off Fire Island
this morning the masts and spars Of a
sunken vessel.
This is evidence OF a heretofore I'M
reported disaster that may have oc-
CURED last night. ana certainly. as the
maratime people regard II, within the
past four days.
Third Officer Otto Walter, of the
Trave, who was on deck at the time,
said to an Evening World" reporter:

were passing Fire Island, about eight
miles of. the lookout reported the
wreck. We stood on until We got within

all that was to be seen.

The wreck lies south by west, one
half west. from Fire Island Lighthouse,
and eight miles distant from the point. -
The pilot We took aboard Was on

had been over the ground continuously
for the past four days and this was the

| had not heard OF a vessel being wrecked

RACE TRACK, SARATOGA, July 26.
Racing was continued here to-day

TRIAL PROBABLY ENDS TODAY.
Capt. William Strauss, Of tho East
Sixty-sevsnth Street Station,
May Be Next on the Rack.

The counsel for Capt Doherty and ex-
ward Men Meehan and Hook were
confident this morning that the trial of
the three before the Board of Police
Commissioners would come to an end
to-day.
Louis J. Grant has frequently and Bit
teriy complained that President Mar
tin In particular. and the other Police
Commissioners, sheehan, Murray and
kerwin evinced hostility to his clients
that precluded fairness.
But" he said in conversation, this
hostility has resulted indirectly to our
benefit In almost every case the Com
missioners have ruled against US, and
We might almost say that had It been
the intention and desire to furnish "
ample grounds on which to make q suc-
cessful appeal from their decision to the
courts. In the event Of the decision being
against US. they could not have done
more for US.
''If Capt. Doherty and Meehan ana
Hook are broken and dismissed from
the force, We shall have no dificulty in
relnstating them"
Mr.. Weliman, on the other hand. was
1ubilant, because. as he puts II, he had
been able to convict the accused officers
out of the mouths Of the witnesses pro-
duced In their behalf.
Within forty-eight hours after the de-
clsion in the case Of the three men ON
trial. should It be against them, an
other Captain will be put on trial.
