CALLED ENGINEER A DAao.
Then the Cook Was Chased OFF Els Vessel
by a Man With an Axe.

The early morning hours yesterday on
the coal barges Merriam and Oakhill
which were lowed in here Thursday night
were very exciting. The cook of the Mer-
riam got up early and went down forward
into the engine room of the barge to cut
some wood. He did this because he did
not want to awaken the captain. But his
pounding did wake up the engineer OF the
barge, an Austrian. This man in rage
ordersd the cook to get up on deck ana
stop his noise. The cook started to go but
the Austrian followed him up and called
him all kinds of names. At last the COOK
called the Austrian 'sdago," and with
that the fun began. The Austrian got
an axe and chased the cook round and
round the deck. Finally the cook saw
that the Austrian meant business and in
tended to catch him if he could, and SO
the cook jumped on board the barge Oak
hill which was lying alongside and ran
down into the captains cabin. The
Austrian was close behind the terrified
cook and was about to finish him with
the axe, SO the story goes, when the
captain and his son woke up and put an
end to the fracas by selling the engineer.
Then the captain of the barge came on
shore and intended to have the engineer
arrested, but was advised to discharge
him without appealing to the law and
that was what was done.

ROW ON a SCHOONER.

There was a lively time on the schooner
William II. Clifford yesterday morning.
The Clifford lies at anchor in the stream
some distance from shore and is ready
for sea. Yesterday morning she shipped
crew some of whom came down from
Boston ON the boat. Among these men
were Eric johnson and his brother. Yes
terday afternoon johnson came to the
police station and reported that the mate
of the Clifford man named Cummings
was Intoxicated and had threatened tc
clean out the whole crew of the Clifford.
He had, SO johnson said, put one man
in irons and threw a shovel at another
man. When johnson saw the mate
coming for him he took to the water. A
Jump into the cold water Of the harbor
did not tend to subdue Johnson's fear OF
the mate for the man kept on swimming
towards shore sand when picked up by a
Hampton boat some distance from the
beach he was nearly exhausted.
The police officer seferred johnson to
the shipping commissioner and he sent
the man to see United States Commits
sioner Bradley. Finally Captain Harding
who commands the Clifford was told
about the matter and said no would look
into the mans story and fix it up all
right. If the man was in the right the
captain said he would discharge the mate
and if the mate was in the right he would
discharge the man johnson.
Some one who had been of to the
schooner said that the mate had tried to
make johnson and his brother work, but
they refused to do so until they had seen
the captain of the Clifford. Then the
mate said he would make them work and
this causeds the trouble. At dark last
night johnson was still on shore and
nothing had been done about the case.

CHESS.
Pm,sury DEFEATS shoraiter In the Third Game
Of TIE Chnmpienship Chez watch.

Before play began yesterday in the third
game Of the Pfllsbury. Showaltor championship
chess match considerable speculation was In
dulRed in by the chess experts as to whether
Pilsbury would not ovade the issue by Offering
q Queens Gambit. rather than risk a second de-
feat against tho French Defence. II was gener-
ally agreed that tho champions first move
would settle the question whether his new an
alysis had convinced him OF the strength of
whites game. Pillsbury played PIX 4, but on
his fourth turn moved Blk Kt 8 instead OF
PIX 5, as In the FIRST game.
At his seventh move he made the sortie with
his queens knight. invented by Tarrasch. and
successfully played by Showalter against Albin.
The defence yesterday, however. varied from
the line adopted by the Vienncse, who withdrew
his knight to bishops square Showalter trying
queen to queens square. Pillsburys manpnvres
with his queens knight finally enabled him to
post it in q strongly supporting position TO ms
centre; but, on the other hand, permitted Sho-
walter to set up n quick attack on the queens
side. which the Kentuckian prosecuted with
such vigor that Pillsbury was almost wholly ON
tho defensive thereafter.
BY a timely advance OF blacks kings knights
pawn white was left with an isolated kings
bishop pawn which could not BIO defended, but
delay in capturing IL enabled white to set n trap,
and when at last Showalter captured the pawn
It resulted in his loss of n rock and subsequent
resignation of the game after forty'two moves.
