INJURED BY A COLLISION.
Arrival In Port of Schooner Supposed
to Have Been Lost.


Philadelphia, Aug. 31.-Badly shatter-
ed and with loss of flying jibboom and
boWsprit and otherwise damaged the
well known three masted schooner Kate
B. Ogden, Captain Wilbert, bound from
Newport News, Va, to Fall River,
Mass, with a cargo of oil, was towed
into this port for repairs by the tug
Iyanhoe, which picked her up at sea IN
3 helpless condition.
The Ogden sailed from Newport News
on Aug. 20, and on the night of the z4tn'
shortly after 10 o'clock, was in collision
with the huge British steamship Morse
King, Captain Saunders, which was
skirting the coast down on her way
from Antwerp, via Boston, to Baltimore
The collision occurred off Hog 1slano'
and as the Ogden whose identity was
not known at the time, disappeared II

ish craft that she had gone down WITH
all on board. All Captain Wllbert kho"s
is that he was run into by an unknown
steamship. and he was very reuceht
concerning the accident when question:

NEW REAL ESTATE LAW.
An Important Measure Which Will Az
feet All Deals.

feet All Deals.
Albany, Aug 31.-An important law
which takes effect tomorrow will Sc
riously affect all real estate deals. 1t is
a new lien law and is intended to do
away with abuses which have been in
cident to many real estate deals hith-
erto. 1t is not believed that 1t will
stand in the way of any genuine trans
action between a bona fide vender and
purchaser of real estate.
Such people are willing to comply
with the provisions of the law. 1t may
interfere with the plans of the ire
sponsible dealers. whose business Is
chiefly in the air. The last section is an
attempt to make building transactions
more equitable than they now are. 1t
aims to insure the contractor who has
furnished labor or material to the man
who buys lots with building loan from
losing his just compensation. The new
section reads:
A contract for the sale of land with
building loan and any modification
thereof must be in writing and within
10 days after its execution be filed in the
office of the clerk Of the county in which
any part of the land is situated. If not
so filed, the interest of each party to
such contract in the real property af-
fected thereby is subject to the lien and
claim of a person who shall thereafter
file notice of lien under this chap
ter.
A modification of such contract shall
not affect or impair the right or inter-
est of a person who previous to the
filing of such modification had furnish
ed or contracted to furnish material or
had performed or contracted to per-
form labor for the improvement of the
real property but such right or inter-
est shall be determined by the origi-
nal contract

made by agreement between this coun-

Reports have reached here that per-
sons acquainted with the Alaskan gold
situation generally believe that the Cop

This news comes in personal way
from postal authorities who have had
an opportunity to inquire into that mat

largely on the proscriptive measures the
Canadian government is reported to be
about to establish, taking every alter
