Whether or not the distinguished
author OF .The Wreck Of the eros.
venor" and the Merchant Sailor
shares the mistaken idea of superior
inducements on American ships l am
unable to say; but he certainly i'm
plies that he does by the striking
comparison that he draws in quoting
a certain ship-owner who said in
effect that the disgraceful condition
Of things on the British ship forty
years ago was driving the flower Of
Britain's youthful seanicn to the
United States, as to the Mecca of
g~cntlemanly officers and seamen.
That statement is forty years old ac-
cording to ~Scribner's Magazine. At
that time American ships we're
manned by good seamcn and oticered
by educated men, while Great Britain
was protesting against the compul-
sorry examination OF officers.
To-day conditions are almost Who'll
ly reversed, and we find British OH
GERS necessarily holding a certificate
that proves some degree of education
and the American ships Otlicercd by
DULLES worse than the typical Blow
hard" worse even than the most
brutal of imaginary Ducklings and
with absolutely no credentials to
merit of any kind. The other day
an American ship arrived In San
Francisco from New York In which
the second mate had wounded one OF
the crew in seventeen nlaceS on the
head, besides Lifting a piece out Of
his arm and trying to gouge his eyes
out-a typical second mate to serve
as q hero to a sea story. This Is no
exceptional case, but IN almost every
day occurrence, which the Shipping
COMMISSIONER records will prove.
These cases of brutality go un-
punished, otherwise they would not
occur SO frequently.

A PUT UP JOB ON BILLY.

It is said ON good authority that the
burglars who tried to effect an entrance into
Mrs. Beach's house on Van Reipen avenue
one night last week were two friends of
William Beach, her son, who had about
fifteen minutes previous to the attempted
burglary left him at the corner. VIII and
his friends had been to reception and he
had just got to his room when he said he
heard some one scratching on a window
pane on the first floor Picking up a re-
volver, which he kept in his room, he fired it
off and scared them away The policeman
on the beat heard the report and ilnmedi-
ately went to the house. but saw no signs of
any attempt having been made to enter the
building. One of the young men who were
with Mr. Beach that night, told News re-
porter that it was put UP job on Billy to
frighten him. The window referred to is on
the east side of the house and under full
glare of lamp post. Anyone passing with
in 20 OF 30 yards of the place could easily
see them, and it is therefore believed that it
was not burglars or else they would have
taken more secluded spot to break in. The
young man also said that 'sBilly" knew

WAS DORIAN JEALOUSY
Shot McNaIly AS He Walked Out
with Miss LYONS.

A shooting affray occurred at a quarter
after eleven o'clock last night at No. ITO
Laidlaw avenue, the exact cause
of which cannot be ascertained
The shooting was done by
Thomas Doran, thirty-nine years DID, of No.
ITO Laidlaw avenue, who shot Frances Nc
Nally, thirty-six years old, in the right
wrist, inf1icting painful but not dangerous
wound. Doran will not make a statement of
any kind, only saying he was under the in
fiuence of liquor at the time, and does not
know why he shot him.
One of the witnesses said that Doran shot
McNally on account of some trouble
that Doran had with a brother of
the man he shot three years ago.
But this is not thought to be the true
reason. The one which seems to have the most
direct bearing upon the case is that told by
different people, the substance of which is is;
jealousy. Yesterday afternoon McNally
made call upon a Miss Murphy at
Nc. ITO Laidlaw avenue, who is a
friend of Doran's. In the evening
McNally took walk with Miss Murphy re
turning about ten o'clock. He remained in
the house about an hour. While there he
met Miss Mary Lyons. who resides on Oak
to go home, McNally offered to accompany
her to her door, 1t was while McNally
and Miss Lyons were coming down the stoop
that Doran who was sitting on the stoop
of No 10S, with Steve Murphy. a brother of
Miss Murphy, referred to above, that he
(Doran) jumped up without saying a word
deliberately fired two shots at Mentally, one
of which missed him, and the
other taking effect as stated above
Miss Lyons gave scream and
tainted. McNally ran back into the hall and
shut the door. In the meantime Sergeant
Kelly and Officer Hunt of the Third precinct
station had arrived upon the scene.
AS soon as Doran fired the shots, he ran
down the street and into Sergeant Kelly's
arms. Before he was caught, however, he
threw the pistol away. Steve Murphy
told the Sergeant that Doran threw
the revolver over into a lot Hunt found
the pistol. Doran was taken to the
station house and McNally was
sent to the City Hospital, where
the bullet was extracted and his wound
dressed. Judge Douglass held Doran in de-
fault of $1,000 bail to await the action of the
Grand Jury.
