BIGGEST SALVAGE ON RECORD.
Story of the st. Paul Aground With
ST, $50 600 of Gold

Story of the ST. Paul Aground with
$1.250,000 of Gold
When the big line steamship st.
Paul ran aground in dense fog on the
Jersey beach near the lower end of
Long Branch, before daylight on Janu-
airy rs, 1896, Captain Clark, Lloyde
agent in New York, got word of it at
nine o'clock in the morning, he cabled
instantly to London, and Lloyd's was
In possession of the news at $3.50 a. m.
The st. Paul had been INDUCING In a
squirt of speed with the swift Cunard-
err Campania, which in moderate
weather is nearly knot faster than
the American ship; she got far out of
her course, missing the Fire Island
light and drove upon the sands of the
Jersey coast. She was held in the en-
brace of the shelving beach for ten
days. The Campania was also reported
to have touched bottom by an 'obser-
want life-saver patroling the beach,
Her commander and her agents de-
clared that this was not so, but she un-
doubtedly came within view of folks
along the shore. In the cargo of the
st. Paul were one and a quarter mill
lions in gold consigned to firm in New
York. 1t was essential that this should
be landed. Arrangements were made
with the Merritt Chapman wrecking
company to have the stranded liner
hauled off. She and her cargo, includ-
ing the gold, were heavily insured.
After it was found that it was going to
be very difficult to float the big ship,
the consignees of the gold, who needed
it in their business, appealed to Captain
Clark as Lloyds agent to have it land
ed 1t remained aboard the vessel
three days; the fact of it being There
rendered the underwriters liable for a
heavier tax in the event of the vessel
being foated. Naturally the American
line did not make any strenuous eff
forts to have the bullion discharged
and just as naturally Lloyds We're anx-
ious to get it off as quickly as possible,
for in the event of a storm arising and
causing the destruction of the ship, the
gold would have added so much more
to the loss of the underwriters. Cap
tain Clark chartered a steamer and Of
fered to take charge of the gold and
land it. Thereupon the captain OBJ
tanned a promise that the gold would
be landed Immediately. Thus the I'M

risk and expense of floating the strand

treasure as it was transferred from

YALE'S BI-CENTENNIAL.

| Yale university has just sent out to
| its graduates in all departments a cir
cular concerning the coming bi-centen-
NAL of the university October 1923,
190D and calling upon every lumnus to
contribute according to his means for
its success. 1t is hoped to complete the
bcentennial fund of two million dol
lars. The circular adds:
Sufficient money has already been
been raised to pay for the site of all
the buildings and to insure the compile
ton of University hall in time for the
exercises of the celebration. The Wig
orous and expanding life of the univer-
sity, however demand the construc-
ton of the remaining buildings contain
ing the Auditorium and Memorial YES
tibule, and the pride of the Yale
brotherhood twill not be satisfied unless
the funds be subscribed and the build
ing in process of construction when
the graduate meet to celebrate the two
hundredth birthday of Yale. 1t is also
essential that there be q large increase
in the unrestricted funds to make good
the inevitable decline in interest rates,
and to enable Yale to continue to devel-
op in every branch of university activ-
ity.
In addition to conditional pledges of
two hundred and fifty thousand dollars
($25O,OO0), the total amount Of subscrip-
lions to the funds of the university re-
ceived since the starting of the bi-cen-
tennial movement has been over nine
hundred thousand dollars ($9O0, O00), Of
which nearly one-third has been for
special objects. But Yale cannot feel
satisfied with the result so long as
there remains large body of the grad
yates which has not responded to her
appeal.
Perhaps the bicentennial is to be
characteristic of the spirit of our Alma
mater every alumnus should contribute,
according TO his means, to make it a
success. Such an anniversary cannot
come again to the graduates of Yale
now living. 1t should therefore COM
mand the generous financial support of
every Yale man. In view of pressing
university need and a great historical
anniversary we urge you to make as
liberal subscription as possible
Very truly yours,
Arthur II. Hadley, chairman; Thomas
Thatcher, vice presidest; Andrew w.
Phillips, secretary; Morris F. Tyler.
