mems Christian Temperance Union has
decided to entirely abandon the Wo-
man Temple at Chicago, said Mrs.
Carrie E. Hoffman, national secretary
of the Women's Christian Temperance

from a meeting OF the directors to at
tend the Delaware state Convention.
She stated that the debt of $500, 900 was
more than the women of America could
carry and conduct a warfare with the
saloon.
Beside the interest on this immense
sum and the liquidation Of the prin-
cipal," said Secretary Hoffman, I'VE
have a ground rent of $4,000 to raise

BIG SALVAGE FOR TUGS
THEIR CLAIMS AGAINST THE
WEEHAWKEN MAY AGGRRE-
GATE $4,000.


WEEHAWKEN MAY AGGRRE-
GATE $4,000.
The richest prize that Philadelphia
tugs have secured for many a long
month is the British steamship Woe
hawlScn, which was towed to Point
Breeze yesterday, after having been
ashore and on fire on Cherry Island
flats, while bound from Philadelphia 10
Venice with cargo Of 1850 OOO gal-
Ions of refined petroleum in bulk. She
was towed to Point Breeze by the
tugs White Rose, Imperator and Nom
|pareil. Part of her cargo had previous
ly been pumped into barges, which
were also towed to Philadelphia.
Eight tugs rendered valuable services
in saving the Weehawken early ON
Monday morning, shortly after the fire
had been discovered, and after contin-
uous work with their steam pumps
succeeded in saving the vessel and
nearly all of her cargo, smothering the
fire. This was confined to the after
part of the craft, where it had gained
rapid headway.
The fire is attributed to the vessel
having been run ashore. This caused
break in the bulkhead between the
cargo and machinery, through which
the liquid cargo ran to the ships fur
naces. These instantly ignited, en-
veloping the craft in flames. The
prompt efforts of the tugs were the
only thing that prevented a most seri-
Gus fire, and it is believed that their
salvage claims will amount to at least
$50, 900, as both the vessel and cargo
are subject to their demands.
The agents of the Weehawken will
ask that the Port Wardens investigate
whether Pilot Church, who was in
charge of the vessel, was negligent in
the performance Of his duties, ol
whether it was an unavoidable acct
dent. 1t has been reported that uh'
Weehawken struck a rock, a new cb
staele to navigation, which will als'
be inquired into.
The cargo is fully insured, but thu
boat is without outside insurance, tn
standard Oil Company, its owners, find
ing it cheaper to insure themselve
than to depend on the regular line com
panies.
