in the Evening, During Fog,
With 8 High Sea Eunning-Et-

Far Unavailing-The Grew SAFE
1y LANDED.

SAN FRANCISCO, March l4.-Jhe
three-masted ship New York, from
Honekong for San Francisco, ran
ashore last night near Halfmoon Bay,
a small town about twenty-five miles
south of San Francisco. Captain Pea
body landed his crew in safety, and not
u life was lost.
The ship was observed early in the
evening close in by the residents of
Halfmoon Bay, and she struck at ,
O'Clock in the evening within 500 yards
of shore.
A stiff gale was blowing last night
from the west. and in the haze and
fog Captain Peabody could not get his
bearings and ran too close in. There
was a terrible sea on, and no assist
ance could be given from shore. as
no small boat could live in the SURF.
This morning the ships boats were
lowered, and the crew came ashore in
safety.
A tug was sent from here last night
to the assistance of the stranded yes
Sci, but she was powerless to help her
off, and returned this morning.
1t is thought that there is no posi-
bic chance of getting the New York
off. She is high and dry at low tide.
The ship is not broken up at all, and
sits straight as if she were in the
water Her captain is afraid that She
may tip over when the tide comes in.
but at present she is in perfect condi-
ton. Powerful tugs will be sent from
here, and another effort Will be made
to pull her off.
The New York carried a cargo of
silks and general merchandise con-
signed to S. l.. Jones & Co.
The latest news from the wreck of
the New York is that the ship is in no
Immediate danger, but the indications
of an early storm promise her destruc-
ton before many days. Captain Pea
body believes that it is not possible
to tlo2t her.
The skipper estimates her original
cost at S13J, GOO The cargo now in
her IS worth 5000, 900. and it is prob
able that very little of it viii be saved

SUBMARINE: MINES.
BEING PLACED IN THE CHAN
MEL OFF SANDY HOOK.
The Government Engaged in Pre-
pairing New York Harbor From
Possible Attack.

NEW YORK, March 15.-Accoi ding to
the World" submarine mines are being
placed III the channel Of Sandy Hook by
the corps Of engineers under the direc-
ton of Colonel Roberts. The greatest
secrecy has been maintained by the Off
GERS and men in charge of the work.
On Sunday afternoon The operations of
detachment Of men, assisted by a
diver, were watched from the shore by
4 number of sight seers. At first it was
impossible to discern the exact nature OF
the work being done by the men in the
Government tug, which had been steam
ing about the lower bay all morning. \
telescope was procured, however, and
then the movement of the beat and men
could be seen with ease and distinctness.
The work of placing the submarine
mines continued all day. AT least tWe.Ne
officers and men were aboard the tug.
On the deck OF the boat We're heaps or
wire and cables used in the construc-
ton Of the submarine mines, three heavy
anchors and one floating or buoy tor
pedo. After the preliminary arrange
nents the diver was lowered over the
side of the vessel. To all appearances
he was descending for the purpose of de-
termining the nature of the channels
bottom. He was submerged for several
minutes. When he came up he held
long conversation with the officers.
The second time he went down the
anchor was lowered. \ few minutes
later the floating torpedo was cast into
the water. To the bottom or cap of the
torpedo, which was a great ball like
affair, chain was attached for the pur
pose of connecting the mine with the
anchor.
1t was fully fifteen minutes before the
diver came up the second time. To
all appearances he had moored the tor
pedo to the anchor with success. He
removed his helmet, and the tug steamed
away Every few minutes the boat
stopped, and the men dropped weights
and lines into the bay They We're evil
IDENTITY sounding the depth Of the water.
1t was first intended by the engineers
to mine The Narrows. but this scheme
was abandoned owing to the great
depth Of the water at that point.
The engineers say that a complete
system of torpedoes off Sandy Hook
would render the harbor inaccessible to
q hostile shio.
