SCATTERED A PIRATE FLEET.
Battle of the Police With Number
of Oyster Poachers.

NEW YORK. March 24.-Capt. ElbeTt O..
Smith, of the police boat PATROL engaged
| a feet of oyster pirate sloOps in Prince :
Bay. Staten Island, yesterday. and after
! much firing the pirates ran to cover in
Jersey waters and saved themselves just
as the commander of the city cruiser was
about to sink the lot of them.
The thud of the Patrols rides she had
one fore and one aft-shook- up Staten ISL
and folk generally, and so terrified one or
two pirate shippers that they will forego
poaching for month at least.
Owners of oyster beds on the Staten ISL
and coast complained some time ago to
Governor Roosevelt that pirates from New
Jersey crossed the State line with big
sloops and carried off hundreds of thou
sands of oysters. The Governor passed the
word to the police department. Chief
Devery summoned Admiral Smith and gave
him sealed orders, to be opened only in
the upper bay.
Blue peter few at the fore on the Patrol
an hour later. The canvas jackets were
taken of the guns and the amphibious
'coppers" cleared for action. In a short
time the Patrol shot into Princes Bay,
and there. seen dimly through the fog,
was a big sloop leading a fleet of pirates,
nearly twenty sail. They were dredging,
but, busy as they were, they had lookouts.
and when the Patrol was sighted up went
every jib, and away went the fleet for the
Jersey shore.
Admiral Smith thus baked of his prey,
tied up in Totenville to see if the enemy
would not return to its harvesting The
enemy did. and at last he saw the pirates
in New York waters. where arrests could
be made.
Full speed ahead!'' was the admiral's
orders. Load the bow chasers!" There
was powder, but no projectiles). The
Patrol bore down upon the biggest sloop,
the Frances Emma.

admiral "Heave to or I'll sink you!'
Now, the sloops skipper had a twenty
knot breeze; so he said as they do at sea-

and made for Jersey waters.
"Fire,' yelled the admiral to the man at
the bow gun. There was a roar and the
fog was shaken.
Three men on the sloop dfved below The
skipper fell fat on his back, and a pirate
seized a megaphone and yelled: For
Gods sake, don't shoot; we'll surrender"
But the sloop didn't heave to- and the
Patrol had only time to fire again when
the pirate was across the line and out of
the admiral's jurisdiction. The Patrol
chased the rest of the feet away from the
oyster beds, firing seven times more. There
was no reply from the enemy, and as they
hugged the safe shore the admiral had to
come home. But" in the words of Null

ELoPEMENT OF AN HEIRESS.
Factory EmPloye Mnrries the
Daughter of John Ii. DunDing.

NEW YORK. March 24.-Social circles In
Paterson, y. j.. were deeply stirred Thurs
day night by the news of sensational
elopement between the daughter Of one OF
the most prominent residents of the city
and a young man employed by her fathers
firm. To add to the interest in the case
was the fact that it came as complete
surprise to both Of the families concerned.
So carefully had the young people guarded
their secret that not even their most inti-
mate friends had suspected the attachment
between them.
The young woman in the case is Miss
Louise Dunnipg the daughter of John B.
Dunning, of the Allen Dunning Tobacco
Manufacturers Company, The bridegroom
is Nicholas Bush, whose father has been
for twenty years the foreman in the com
pany's factory.
For some months the young man has
been employed as a driver on one of the
concerns wagons. Aside from the wide
difference in the social station OF the two
young people, it is not known that there
was any obstacle to the match.
The knews of the marriage came oIt
through a telegram announcing it, which
was sent TO the parents OF the bride Thurs
day evening. and which was the first init
nation they received of the state OF af-
fairs. The two young people had kept
their secret well.
Even their relatives were left in the
dark. and did not dream of the existence
of an attachment. much less Cf'the project
of an elopement and romantic marriage,
between the daughter of the merchant
prince and the son of his Cd and trusted
employe.
The bride and bridegroom have known
each other since childhood. Young Bush
spent much of his time about the shop
where his father has been employed for
many years. In this way he had many OPP
portunities of meeting the sweet-faced
daughter of the head of the firm but il
had never been noticed that the two
showed any especial liking for each others
society. They were in such widely differ
ent social spheres that nobody thought of
coupling their names together.
-Four months ago Bush gave up his po-
sition as bookkeeper in a local silk mill
and became driver for the tobacco firm.
Nobody remarked the freqeunt visits of
Miss Louise to the factory or the constant
interchange of letters which went on be-
tween the two.
One week ago young Bush informed Mr..
Dunning that he had found more lucra-
tive position, and 1t was agreed that he
should leave the employ of the tobacco
firm at the end of this week. On Wednes-
day he did not return to his work as
usual. On the next day Miss Dunning left
her home early in the afternoon, ostensi-
bly, on a shopping trip. Early in the even
ing telegram came to her mother bear
ing the following message:
Rutherford, y. PLEASE don't worry.
| married Nick Bush this afternoon.-LGu."
