PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March 28.-
The famous filibuStering steamer Lau-
rada arrived in the Delaware last
night after having successfully land
ed the most important expedition yet
sent from this country to Cuba, and
tonight is anchored in the river below
Wilmington. 1t was shortly after dusk
when she slipped past the United
States revenue cutter Hamilton, and
Immediately disappeared in the dark
ness up the bay The Hamilton had
been watching at the breakwater for
some time for the slippery filibuster
and shortly after the Laurada had
passed she got under way and tonight
is off Lewes, Del. Although making
no signals, the Laurada came near
enough to the reporting stations at
the breakwater to, be identified. She
has been off the Capes all day, but

Sailors From the St. Ndzdir6 Tell Of Horrible SUI
f6rng

LONDON, March %. = The British
steamship Yanariva, Capt. Weston,
which left Newport News on March 1O
bound for Glasgow. arrived at Green
ock tonight. The captain reports that
on March IL, while in latitude 81 longi-
tude II, he picked up small boat con-
tanning sixteen survivors of the steam
ship Vile de st. Nazaire, Of the West
Indian line of the Compagnie Generate
Trans -Atlantique, which foundered in
the great storm Of March off the Vir-
ginia capes.
They had been without food and wa
ter for four days, and were in a state
of extreme exhaustion, and were bor-
dering on madness. The officers of the
Yanariva did all in their power for the
unhappy men, and finally learned their
pitiful story piece by piece. They say
that four boats were launched, two
containing twenty-nine each, the third
seventeen and the fourth six. The
boat picked up by the Yanariva was
one of the two that took off twenty
nine, but thirteen had succumbed to
exposure, hunger and thirst The last
the survivors saw Of the other boz is
was on the day the vessel foundered,
when they sighted two of them lashed
helplessly together and empty.
For some time after the rescue the
captain of the Yanariva kept an Off
Ger at the masthead sweeping the hor-
izon with glass in the hope Of get
ting some trace of the other boats,
but there was no sign of them. AS
night was falling rapidly and the sea
and wind were increasing, with mist
and rain, the Yanariva proceeded.
The second officer of the Vile 6e st.
Nazaire Is among the rescued who
will be taken in charge by the French
consul at Glasgow.
According to the list Of the crew of
the Vile de St. Nazaire, originally pub
lished, the second captain was Pierre
Niuroli and the first lieutenant Andre
de Andreis. Niuroli is probably the
officer rescued by the Yanariva.

aprons, close their shops and meet their

This fiat mas gone out, and that ends ii
so far as the butchers are concerned. Con-
sequently if you wish to have fresh meat

none of the men in the business will supply

butchers are no exception to this rule
The picnics given by the Board OF Trade
in this City are not intended as money
making scheme. Quite the contrary, as
the books of the society show deficit OF
$500 from last years entertainment, and it
is presumed that no better condition of
finances will be shown on this.
With five bands OF music, embracing
132 musicians, 500 for prizes on games in
Shell Mound and 500 for contests on the
racecourse adjacent, both of which places
have been secured for the occasion, il is
quite evident that the expenditure of
money given for the benefit of the general
public Is not a matter that concerns the

BIG FIRE At BADEN,
A. Steiger Sons Pottery Went
Up in Flames This
Morning.
1t Was a NV Institution and Its
Loss Will Be Seriously

Shortly before midnight last night the
big pottery establishment OF A. Steigsr
Sons at Baden was discovered to be on
fire.
The flames spread rapidly and for more
than haltan hour the sky was Illuminated
with a great glare.
The building was burned to the ground
and the loss will be total.
The firm removed to Baden from San
Jose less than TWO years ago and ex-
pended large sum of money in fitting up
their new establishment, the advent of
which was hailed with delight by the
Baden people. The Steiger Brothers are
enterprising and progressive and built up
good business.
Owing to the lateness of the hour but
little information could be obtained. At

train.
All these facts, in the opinion OF Chief
Lees, form a complete chain and show
conclusiveIy the utter absurdity OF Mrs.
Scnwartzler's story.
The police, in disposing of Mrs.
Schwar zler's weird story, significantly
call attention to the fact that when Lena
Marten, the station agent at Baden, told
the weird story two years ago about being
robbed by highwaymen she depended
upon this same Mrs. Schwartzler to bo-
ster up the yarn. The officers say that
the latter's story was easily proven to be
fake.

mania for telling "whoppers," and, prob

He deserted, but was afterward reinstated.
