Wind BEATS TWO TUGS
The Ship ]. B. Walker Driven
Against a Brooklyn Pier
After Several Bumps.

The American ship ]. B. Walker, Cap
tain Wallace. which arrived at this port
on January 20. with a cargo of salt from
Liverpool. started from her pier at the
foot of Congress street this morning in
tow of the tugs Municipal and F. W.
Devoe of the Rogers Towing Company
for the Erie Basin to be dry-docked
As soon as she was clear of the pier the
wind took charge of her and she was
blown through Buttermilk Channel, drag
ging the tugs along with her and touch
ed on shoal off Governors Island. She
was then blown across the bay being
entirely beyond control of the tugs. She
struck broadside on against the pier of
the Liberty Island Steamboat Company
on Liberty Island, where she now lies
starboard side on, high out of the water,
and would roll over were she not held
up by the pier. Boatmen say they have
never known the waters of the bay to be
SO angry.
The Walker is a sister ship of the
General Knoz which burned last year
at Pier 49, East River, where she was
loading cargo for San Francisco She is
owned by Edward O'Brien of Thomaston,
Me-, and her agents here are w. R.
Grace & Co.
One of the tugs had her smokestack
blown out by the wind and was taken
in town by the uninjured tug and towed
to Erie Basin.

mentioned for the position, but since the
experience Of the United States with Mr.
Kelley of Virginia, who was rejected by
both Austria and Italy and ex-senator
Blair, who was rejected by China. the
custom has been established of making
inquiry in advance in each instance Of

custom was merely followed in Mr.. UhTs

Frank Wilson Held In Newark for
Holding Up a saloon Keeper

Frank Wilson, offthis city; John Hunt.
OF Phillipsburg, and Charles Danford, Of
Chicago, we're held in $1,000 bail each
by Judge Eggers in Newark yesterday.
Tuesday night, as Joseph Farra, of
No. 342 Chestnut street, Newark, was
about to close his saloon Wilson and his
companions entered and demanded
drinks. Ferra insisted in being paid in
advance and Hunt, it is alleged, after,
the proprietor handful of small change,
informed him they proposed having
drinks without paying for them
"Ill be damned if you do shouted
Farra, but before he could move Hunt
had revolver levelled at his head
F'arra ducked behind the bar and seiz-
ed a revolver, covered Hunt with it and
ordered him out of the saloon. Hunt
replied by firing a shot at the saloon
keeper which whizzed uncomfortably
close by his head. Farra fired a shot
at Hunt and the trio made break for
the door and dashed down the street
pursued by Farra. who fired shot after
shot after them. no one of which took
effect.
Hunt, not to be outdone in the shooting
fired two shots at Farra, who escaped in
jury by dropping in the street. An hour
after the occurrence ali three men were
arrested. They are all desperate char
acters. Wilson is not known to the po-
lice of this city.

VHIqECiPS ON TIE BAY
Ferryboats Wave Washed and
Many Small Craft Blown
Ashore.

Shipping men say that the gale is the
heaviest ever known here. The upper
bay is white-capped from shore to shore
and there are very few small craft ont.
The ferryboats this morning found con-
siderable difficulty in making landings.
but met with no accidents SO far as re-
ported up to noon. The decks of the big
Staten Island ferryboats were washed by
waves all this morning and in some
places where they dove into a particu-
larly heavy sea the spray reached to the
pilot house. A trip to Staten Island
was like an ocean voyage.
The hcets had no difficulty in making
their landings at New York, where they
were in some measure protected from the
wind. burt on the Staten Island side at
st. George it took from five to ten
minutes extra to dock Them The Liberty
Island boat, on account of the heavy
wind and heavy sea in the bay, made
but one trip this morning Then it tied
up at the Battery pier. There is no fog.
A terrific gale is blowing at Quaran-
tine N. j: Many small craft are pound
ing on the Staten Island shore where they
were driven by the wind and heavy
seas.
TWO large barks. one at clifton. the
other at Toinpkinsville. and brig at
Sfapleton are anchored with two anchors
each. but are gradually dragging toward
the shore. The cruiser Columbia is off
ST. George with steam up and immense
anchors out. She holds her own brave
