CHEESE AND APPLE.
This Diet Results I'm the Death OF
Two Brooklyn Boys.

Brooklyn. March 1S.-Coroner Burger
was informed yesterday OF the sudden
death Of two children. One Of them
William Ball-was four years old, and
lived at No. l26 Twenty-third Stree1.
He was taken suddenly Ill after eating
some cheese. Or. Z. c. Bennett, of
no. 2l9 Fifty-eighth Street. was called
i'm. but the child died before he could re-
lieve it. 1t is supposed that death was
due to ptomaine poisoning. DR.. Bennett
believes that the cheese which the child
ate was in the first stages Of decay.
Theodore Baumgarten. sixteen months
old. was the other child. He lived at
No. 1103 Myrtle Avenue. He was playing
with an apple yesterday morning, and
tried to swallow a large piece. The
apple stuck in his throat His parents
tried in vain to dislodge it. and finally
sent for an ambulance. Before the ar
rival of the surgeon the child died.

NEVER BE KNOWN.
But it is Probable That Fully I2o Persons
Went Down on the Portland.

Provincetown, Nov 3O-The exact
number of persons who were carried
away from Boston by the steamer
Portland will probably never be known
as no list of passengers was retained
on shore when the vessel left last Sat
urday.
Many estimates of the number or
board have been made. but the esti-
mates have seldom agreed.
G. F. Williams. Boston agent of the
Portland Steamship Company who ar
rived here on the tug William Fl. Smith
last night, places the total number OF
persons on the steamer at 100, or pos
sibly 105. This estimate. however. is
generally regarded as rather small,
1t has been stated that the number
was as high as 1855, but Mr.. Williams
denies that so many sailed on the Port
land. 1t is probable that 100, including
passengers and crew, is near the cor
rect number.
Nearly every sea captain and mar
liner on the cape on being asked for an
opinion, states that every one on board
was undoubtedly lost. One feature of
the disaster is the absence of any fr3g-
ments of lifeboat or life raft among
the varied mass of wreckage from the
Portland which has been washed ashore
during the last three days along the
beach from High Head station to Chat
ham.
Up to late hour today no one had
reported finding any of the Portlaads
boats. Several pieces of white painted
oars were picked up ut various points.
One theory about the loss of the Port
land is that the boats and life RATS
were carried far out to sea and " ere
not blown any where near this coast.
The place and exact manner in which
the Portland was swept to destruction
has furnished an unusually interesting
topic of discussion III marine circles
here.
Old mariners say they cannot under
stand why the steamer, which was
sighted about 3 o'clock Saturday night
lust before the gale set in its fun force
between Thacher's island and Eastern
point, Cape Ann, by the schooner Maud
S.. did not put into Gloucester harbor
when it was apparent from the fall OF
the barometer that a violent northeast
er was approaching.
When the steamer was sighted off
Cane Ann she was making good prog
ress toward Portland, but the weather
was fast becoming rough, and as the
captain of the Maude s. said, it was
plain to see that serious storm was
impending.
why the Portland ever left Boston
at all Saturday night, is what puzzles
marine men on Cape Cod. 1t was OFT
Thachers island that the Portland was
last reported before she went to her
doom. There are many theories offered
in explanation Of how the vessel

IN SALVADOR.
Uprisings Reaches Dimen-
sions Of a Revolution.

Washington, Nov. 3O.-The uprising
in Salvador has reached the Dimensions
Of a revolution in the judgment Of Of
ficials and diplomats familiar with at
fairs in that quarter.
President Gutierrez has given way to
Gen. Regalado, who has formed a pro-
visional government. The changes are
construed by some of them as a death
blow to the newly formed republic
known as the United States of Central
America, composed Of Salvador, Mic
aragua and Honduras, one of whose
main purposes was to provide a joint
military force for common defense
against uprisings. but other diplomats
take the reverse view.
A gentleman sustaining an official re-
lation to the government Of Nicaragua,
who Is here in connection with canal
affairs, said that the deposition of Pres
ident Gutierrez by Gen. Regalado ap-
peaFed to be established beyond doubt.
In the judgment of this official, the
change would be rather favorable to
the Central American union than 9TH
erwise, as Gen. Regalado was known
to be a sincere friend of the union,
whereas President Gutierrez was re-
garded as a secret foe to the alliance.
y
on the other hand, construed tho result
of the Salvadorian uprising as death
blow to the Central American union.
One of the chief officials of the party
said that the union was designed for
the sole purpose of keeping in power
the three rulers of the states entering
the union, namely Zelaya of Nicaragua,
Bonillo Of Honduras and Gutierrez Of
Salvador. This official said that he un-
derstood that Gen. Regalado, who led
the uprising, had on his flags words
signifying his purpose TO oppose the
union and to demand the separate SOW
ereignty of Salvador Much curiosity
is aroused as to- the whereabouts of
former President Gutierrez, as the re
ports do not say what has become Of
him. One OF the officials here believes
Gutierrez has been allowed to escape.
Among the Costa Ricans who are here,
the outcome Of the Calvadorian trou"
BILE is taken as another reason why
Costa Rica should not Join the Central
American union. President Iglesias has
regarded the union as experimental. Sc
nor Correa, charge d'affairs of the
union, has received little or no inform
alton regarding the trouble.

Provincetown, Nov. 3O--In those
treacherous waters, which continually
threaten the very existence of Cape
Cod, and which cover THE most dreaded
ocean graveyard on the entire Atlantic
coast, during the most terrible moments
of storm, which is beyond parable
in the history of New England s mari
time interests, on Sunday occurred q
disaster frightful beyond description.
The steamer Portland plying nightly
between Boston and Portland, was this
Inflated craft and the sea alone knows
how she Went to her awful DOOM for

not one has lived.

were swept away.
| gFor two days Cape Cod was isolated

when the railroad was opened, the de
vastation which followed the storm be
came fully known.
Besides the Portland victims, at leas
20 lives werelost in host of other craft
chief of which was the big schooner
King Philip.
The cause of the PorLland's fate
aside from the force of the elements
is a mystery which will never be prob
ed. Every mariner has a theory, AND
all agree that when buffetted by the on
coming storm off Cape Ann, the big
side wheeler was disabled, and before
the blast was driven over 40 miles to
the leeward, the waves slowly demol-
ishing the upper structure. until the
hull alone remained, and this, finally
sank beneath the surface.
The vessel disappeared some distance
off shore, for the strong current is now
carrying wreckage and bodies south
ward, and much of it may be found ON
Nantucket shoals,
Todya another fierce northeaSter set
in, again lashing the waves into a fren-
zy, and giving small hope TO scores of
broken-hearted relatives and friends of
the victims that their bodies will be
found on the shores
