THE PARIS EI0AlED.
German Salvagers succeed in Hauling the
Big Liner of the Rocks.

London, July 1.-THE SalvagerS have
moved the American Line steamer
Paris astern for distance of $50 yards
and have shifted the vessels position
slightly to the eastward. They hope
to be able to soon have the after stoke
hold fires alight The Paris is now
clear of the rocks.
The intention of the Salvagers was
simply to slew the stern of the liner so
as to facilitate the operations of the
divers, but it was found that she moved
more freely than was expected. Three
salvage boats alone practically remov-
ed her from a critical position unaided
She still has Il list, however, to the
starboard and cannot be assumed out
of danger. The tugs are preparing to
tow her to Falmouth harbor.
The German salvagers are elated at
their unexpected success in floating the
Paris. She had been weighted with
nearly 100 tons of granite at the stern
with a view of hosting her bow free
from the rock. The divers had diff
Guilty in getting at the rock, and this
was the reason for the tentative effort
to move her Several tugs from Fail
mouth proceeded to the scene but the
Germans were not anxious for their
assistance, offering the largest tug only
Go for towing, and offer which was
promptly refused. 1t was then decid-
ed that the vessel, being in a position
of comparative safety, should remain
where she was for the night and that
the divers should continue their work
of patching the hull, SO as to minimize
the risk of towing.
Unless something unforeseen occurs,
the Paris will be lowed to Falmouth,
tomorrow. and if on inspection her con-
dition warrants it, she will be taken
to Southampton or to some other docks
for repairs.
The weather, late this evening, is
rather unfavorable, the symptoms be-
ing rain, fog, falling barometer and Il
slight wind from the southeast. An
increase in the wind might prove seri-
Gus.
Every precaution has been taken TO
anchor the liner securely.
The coast guards are keeping keen
lookout. Capt. Watkins, the other Of
ficerS and 30 members of the crew are
still aboard. The pumps are coping
with the water and there is no danger
of the vessels sinking.
Il is understood that the salvagers
are the same parties who refloated the
Peninsular and Oriental steamer China,
which went ashore in March of last
year on Azala point, near Alden.

ing Made at Endeavor Convention.

ton of Educators of Colored Youth.
Rev. w. s. Bradden requested that
the committee on resolutions take some
action on the talk of w. w. Boyd OF
ST. Louis. before the Christian En-
deavor convention. Mr. Boyd's words
that Rev. Bradden objected to were:
IF Christ were in the South, an MS
mother or his wife or daughter were
outraged by negro brute, would he
resent it," followed by a partial de-
Tense of lynching. They were spoken.
Yesterday, in Tent Williston. The
chairman said that the committee
would doubtless do its work and the
incident was closed, aside from the re-
marks of Bishop Walton of Jersey
CITY. made later in the day. Bishop
