TWENTYFOUR DROWN
A Heavily Loaded Tug in New
York Bay,
Goes Down Like a Stone With
All on Board.
N u N X A IL e WE'D
And None of Their Bodies Yet
Recovered.

New YORK, June 25.-The ting James
d. Nichol, with Sixty three excursion
lists and q crew of twelve, sank at
about 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon
three miles off the Highlands. Fifty
four of those on board have been ac-
connted for, the rest were probably
drowned.
When about three miles east Of the
Highlands, and about four miles
south of Scotland light ship the waves
began to break heavily over her star
board rail To dodge the water and
wind the passengers began to run
around to the port side and to climb
on top of the deckhouse. The
boat careened alarmingly to port
and the water swept in over
the rail. The terror stricken
men rushed back to star board
and the tug swung deeply down on
that side At the same moment a
number of heavy breakers struck the
boat in quick succession The. cap
tain. William Hyatt, stuck pluckily to
his post and sounded the whistle in
prolonged scream for help. Even as
he did so the tug filed with water
that poured into her from both sides,
and sank out of sight in the water.
She went down like a stone, carrying
many of the passengers with her.
The water choked the cry of the
whistle, but not before it had been
heard and needed. The Clyde steam
ship Algonquin, a mile away, heard
it and swung around to go to the res
cue The tugs Wallace B. Flint, R.
J. Moran and Governor also hurried
to the spot, and succeeded in rescu-
ing forty-four of the excursionists.
A few hours after sinking the tug
was pretty well broken up and the
wreclxage began to come ashore. Be
fore dark the entire beach was strewn
with it. Forty three lunch baskets
were washed up No bodies have
come ashore

WILL HELP THE STRIKERS
The American Railway Union Has De-
cided to Make Fight ON Pullman.

The American Railway Union Has De-
cided to Make Fight Pullman.
ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, June 26.-At an ex-
ecutive session of the local branch of
the American Railway union held
here yesterday the unpublished pOr-
ton of the recent proceedings of the
union at Chicago was detailed to the
member present. 1t consisted of the
plans made to assist the strikers at
Pullman in their fight against the
Pullman Palace Car company The
next move will be the calling out of
the workmen in the shops at st. Louis
and at Ludlow, KY After all the
workmen are out the switchmen in
the wards will refuse to make up any
trains with Pullman cars. Trains
will be made up as usual, but the
switchmen will refuse absolutely to
handle Pullman car
This order will be extended over
practically the whole country. Should
the railroads manage to get Pullman
cars on any train, then the train crew,
including engineer, fireman, con-
ductor, and brakeman, will refuse to
take the train out; and should any
railroad company discharge any
switchmen for refusing to handle
Pullman cars, every man belonging
to the union employed on that road
will be called out within SIX hours
1t was carefully explained, however,
that this fight was not against the
railroad companies, and the hope was
expressed that it would not be- ne ces-
sary to call out the employees OF any

SENATOR PERKINS WEALTH
Most of It Was in WashinGton, Where
He Owns Property.


WASHINGTON, June 25.-The family of
the late ex-senator Bishop w. Perkins, of
Kansas, will continue to make their home
in this city, and the remains of the dead
jurist and statesman rest in Rock Creek
cemetery.
Little can be known of the condition of
the estate, except that the ex-senator was
a money maker ever since he left con-
gress and returned to the practice of law,
and the business ventures which he made
were invariably successful.
He had amply provided for the imme-
date wants of his family by life insur-
ance in various companies, aggregating
at least $36, 000 The home of the fami-
ly is valued at $4,000 and other pieces
of property purchased by him in and
around Washington at least $4,000 He
is also believed To have earned consider
able property in Kansas and the Indian
Territory. He was interestfd, also, in
various minor enterprises, mOst.of them
in an inceptive state, from which, had
lived, he would have realized large
fortune, but which will not in a settle
ment at the present time, produce any
considerable income. His business part
ner, Judge Chandler, is however, conf
dent that the family is amply provided

Big Bu,ln.s, in Tomatoes.

The Don Canning Co., over the river.
expects to put up one million cans Of
tomatoes next season, besides large
quantities OF pickles, catsup, preserves,
etc. The works has a large capacity
and can easily put up one million cans
OF tomatoes if they can be procured.
These people were able to can but one
half as many tomatoes this fall as they
wished to do owing TO the short crop,
and canneries in other parts OF the
United States had the same experience,
and vet tomatoes are selling at very
low price to-day, both wholesale and re-
tail. The retail price is 8 cents per
can or three cans for % cents, and some
sell at l3 cents q can. The low price IS
due to the hard times and they will
doubtless be higher before next season,
owing to the short crop. The Don Cam
ming Co., will hold most Of its stock for
this season. They recently filed an or
der for several car loads for another
cannery, which was unable TO fill Its or
der at the time.
The tomatoes grown in the Ohio VAL
lev are considered the best in the
United States. Those who know what
they are talking about say that for
flavor, solidity and color they excel
those raised in any other part oil the
country, and for this reason they sell
well and are shipped to every state IN
the union, car loads going to California:
The industry is rapidly growing and
farmers and gardeners find tomato
growing quite profitable, some having
many acres each year.
