, minds OF the board that the Judgment OF tho
commanding officer OF the Maine was sound and
correct, and that he probably avoided serious
disaster and loss OF life to the Isabella by taking
the course he did. The testimony shows that
good order and dis ipline prevailed. and that all

promptly obeyed. The damage done 10 the

can be made by the ships force. and are partly

PoUeHKEEPsrE, Aug. "A young-lookine,
vell-dreesed man sat in the Hudson River Rail-
road depot this morning, and from his appear
anco IL would seem that he had had long run
He perspired freely and was tanning himself.
Policeman Charles McCabe walked in and out
of the station several times, and presently the
stranger said:
"oficer. come over here. You may think It
strange for mo to call you to como to me, but
am ali tired out l have had a three mile run
ming fight"
McCabe sat down alongside of the man, and
was surprised at the following story which ho
told:
He said his name was w. Franklin Brothers,
NJ. E., OF as and 45 Dey street, New York. He is a
mechanical engineer. During his railroad travel
he had passed the Clinton Point stone crusher
very often and decided that the stone could be
removed easier. He accordingly drew up
plan which he submitted to tho managers
Of the concern. They thought the idea
a good one. and told him to go to the crusher
and work for time. In order that he might get
for weeks. only to work two or three days at a
time He said he discovered that the work was
being done in a crooked manner.
This morning he went to the crusher. armed
with credentials which gave him the power to
take shTsSs q the Ts0s HPr Mssn 99
place. Mr.. Brothers said he would not,
and then Harris struck at him. He
struck back and they grapuled and both
fell to the ground. Harris arose to his feet and
,s .rrs ns S pPT aSdssd see SoS
and took a plumb bob from his pocket. 1t
weighed Eve pounds and was made OF lead, and
on one end was steel needle three or four
inches long. As Harris aimed another blow at
him he stuck the needle Into iarris's side.
Harris would not give up, and then Brothers said
he pounded him on tho head with the other end
OF the bob until no fell TO the ground;
| Harris then called ON his men. and about 400
! Of them, with picks and shovels, gathered
around Brothers He managef to run to his
/ boarding. house nearby to get a revolver. There
was none there. but re succeeded in getting one
from the man who lives next door. He also got
five rounds Of cartridges. He then returned, to
go to tho depot, but every path was blocked
and he retreated for some distance. Finally he
saw one path which was guarded with only two
men. This path he decided to take. He walked
up to the men. pulled out the revolver, and said
:" You better let me pass. or III be tempted to
! kill you."
They let him pass, and then he reached the
| railroad track. He had to run all the way to
miles, and was followed a long distance by the
gang OF men. He reached New Ham burg sta
tion In time to get the train to this city. He
| said he would not like to be detained II he could
help II, as he wanted to report the matter to the
managers in the New York Office. He was moi
| arrested.
Brothers said he would apoear at the ston,
tected. Telephonic communication with tn,
crusher rev called the fact that Superintendent
Harris is not seriously injured. although he wa
stabbed.
