The British tramp steamer Wilder
spool arrived at New York the other
day from Java, via Delaware breakwa-
ter.
On the night of October II, duringa
strong northeast gale, the steamer took
great deal of water on her decks. The
night was exceedingly dark and during
the intervals between the flooding seas
Capt. Japp, who was on the bridge,
heard q Tapping sound forward. Think
ing 1t sail which had got adrift he
called to the crew to look afterit. Cries
of astonishment from the men soon
brought the captain down on the for
ward deck, where he found a shark
Hopping about and the men lodging In
all directions.
One Of the crew stood dazed, and the
captain called to him: why don't you
take hold Of him?"
The man made an effort to grab the
shark, but was hurled to the deck by the
monster, which opened and shut his
enormous jaws with such alarming force
that the men were reluctant to "take
hold" After a hard fight with the seas
flooding the decks and, throwing tho
men and shark together in great con-
fusion. the monster was secured and
dragged to the afterpart of the steamer.
1t took eight men to conquer the crea-
ture, who was found to measure II feet
when killed and cut up the following
day.
