who were in the forward part of the boat.
He ran through the passa geWays on the
several decks, shouting to the passengers
and the sleeping crew. He remained amid
ships, crying out warnings until he was
forced by the flames to jump overheard:
The passengers, in various stages Of
frenzy, rushed from the Staterooms to the
upper decks. Life preservers were given
them. and many of the men assisted in
putting them on the women and children
BY this time the entire middle section
of the Nutmeg State was burning fiercely,
and the persons forward were completely
cut off from communication with those on
the after part of the boat. This left those
people on the rear decks in a perilous sit
uation, as the lifeboats on the amidship
daVits were surrounded by flames and
there were few Of the crew in the rear to
give aid.
AS the flames continued to spread both
forward and aft the pilot headed the
steamboat at full speed for the beach at
Sands Point
The draft swept the fire toward the
rear of the boat. The passengers in that
part of the boat went as far back on
the rear deck as possible, but We're en-
veloped by black smoke and the flames
were leaping toward them, threatening
in a few moments to roast them alive
They huddled close to the rear rail in
fear, waiting for the steamer TO strike
the beach. With shock the Nutmeg
State struck the rock bottom, and hu-
parts of her like shot from sling. The
passengers jumped into the water and
tried TO reach the lifeboats which had
been launched from the forward part of
the vessel. All the passengers were In
the water but a few moments, but many
of the members Of the crew had become
imprisoned in the forward part of the
ship, below decks, by the flames. There
was no outlet in the thick sides of the
steamboat except the small portfolios,
through which no man could squeeze;
The first person to leave the burning
steamer was Baggagemaster Jaynes, who
gave the alarm to the sleeping passen,,
gers. When the smoke and flames forced
him from amidships he was almost ex-
hausted and made a leap for the sea;
His head struck against the guard rail
and he was stunned, falling into the water
helplessly A launch from the steam
yacht Kismet picked him up and carried
him to the Kismet, where the brave fell
low died shortly after being taken aboard.
The Nutmeg State had hardly struck
the beach when several passing craft
came to her rescue sent out lifeboats and
picked UP the passengers struggling in
the water.
An unknown woman passenger, all
though provided with life belt. was seen

The hearty greeting with which Ad-

prominent men. From all parts came
large delegations.
Boston to-day was decorated as the
city seldom has been. The route OF the
parade presented a mass Of color Pic
lures Of Admiral Dewey seemed to be
everywhere, and there were few private
residences throughout the city that did
not throw colors to the breeze The
streets, avenues and squares through
which the parade passed were dressed
mainly under the direction of an ar
chitectural committee. and a system
attic plan had been followed in the ar
rargements Of colors. which resulted in
most picturesque and harmonious COM
binauons.
Dewey was UP early and with Lieu
tenant Brumby took a short constitu-

breakfast The admiral received Mayor
quincy and later he gave few minutes
reception TO the newspaper men of the

BIG JEFFRIES is NOT
TRAINING FAITHFULLY
Such Is the Report That Comes From
the Camp of the Pugilistic
Champion.

NEW YORK, Oct. 14.-There were two
stories in circulation tonight as to the
cause of Jeffries' injury. One was that it
was due entirely to an accident and the
other was to the effect that it was due to
something more serious than collision
with n medicine ball The champion s
face is covered by a peculiar eruption, the
report said, and in consequence he was
declared to have been neglecting his
training. 1t was pointed out that on sew
eral occasions he has left his training
failed to return until late in the after
noon.
There is one conspicuous feature of JEFF
fries training, and that is lack Of har-
pressed himself several times as being
dissatisfied with the champions actions,
and 1t is said he has threatened to cease
to assume responsibility for the Califor-
mans condition until Jim" changes his
