Driven by the terrific northeast gale,
the highest tide ever known along the
north shore of Long Island swept in
land, leaving a ribbon of wreckage
that girts the shore front from AS
toria, in Long Island City, out to
Greenport, on the extreme end of the
island.
Thousands Of dollars of damage was
done. Docks, boats and bathing
houses were wrecked, and the fleet of
yachts, which had been drawn up in
supposedly safe winter quarters, were
floated off by the high tide and left
stranded in many instances more than
half a mile inland.
Probably the greatest damage was
done at North Beach, on Flushing and
Bowery bays, where more than $4,000

places of amusement and other prop
erty was destroyed.

chamberlain Severely Criticized.

London, Nov. 24.-Once more has DO
seph Chamberlain, the colonial secretary,
proved his right and title to be the most
thoroughly hated British statesman. The
storm now raging in Germany over his
animadversions on the Prussian army has
had a powerful reflex in Great Britain,
where. regardless of party lines, Mr. Cham
'berlain has been severely criticized tor
uselesslyy putting his foot in it,
On all sides can be heard circulated ex-
pressions of opinion by English business
men and politicians, who, while they,
perhaps, believe Mr.. Chamberlain was cor
rect in what he said. denounce the utter
ing of such sentiments. 1t is recalled that
Mr.. Chamberlain's utterances regarding
the car and the Anglo-German alliances
have been the causes of the only serious
outbreaks of anti-British feeling on the
continent in recent times. 1t was no ex-
aggeration to say that the financial world
of England would be delighted to see Mr.
Chamberlain muzzled when intending TO
speak on England's foreign relations

Halliday of Ohio, one of her passengers,

his wife boarded the Cymric at Liverpool

all the people on board the ship were to
be killed. and drawing a knife from his
pocket. he commenced hacking his wife
and slashing at his own throat. Mrs Hal

fury of her husband, receiving terrible

There is nothing left to mark the rem

The four large tents, with all the

STRIKERS WERE DEFIANT
DIsoBEY ORDER OF THE COURT.
About 400 Men Are in Camp Near
Coal Mines i'm Providence, Ky
Judge Hall Calls on MiIitin to Ex-
ecute His Orders-serious Trouble
Looked For.

Madisonville, KY, Nov. 24.-The
striking union miners continue defiant
and remain under arms in their camp
near the Providence coal mines. They
hold that the order of Judge Hall is
illegal and treat it with CONTEMPT.
They maintain that the action of Adj
Jutant General Murray in making the
necessary preparations to enforce
Judge Halls order was unauthorita-
tive. The strikers are in camp in
greater numbers than before. Not
withstanding that the time limit of
Judge Halls order that the camp
should be disbanded and moved out
of the county has expired
This refusal to heed the order of the
court is based upon the advice of w.
II. Yost of Greenville, chief counsel
for President Wood of the United
Mine Workers. Yost and Wood are
defiant in their talk, and declare that
the courts order was a farce, illegal
In the extreme and issued without
authority.
When the Associated Press CORE
spondent visited the camp the strikers
were eating breakfast. More than 200
were assembled in the camp. with
probably more than a hundred in the
vicinity. There were four large can
vas tents, the lodging capacity of
which is about 200. There is much
speculation about the reception the
militia will receive when they march
on the camp to make effective Judge
nr1n =.
Judge Halls determination to have his
order executed. After comforting with
General Murray, on his return from
the camp, Judge Hall made the fol-
lowing statement:
There has been no change in my
determination to dispense the camp.
and the orders have been given Cen
eTal Murray so that he may get his
forces in readiness to meet the emerg-
ency in such manner as his discretion
may suggest. l would suppose that
the increased number of men in the
camp, with their continued hostile
demonstrations, would require great
precaution in General Murrays pre-
parations, all of which are left en-
tirely to him, and will necessarily
cause some delay"
General Murray began at once the
making of plans for carrying out the
orders, and intimated tonight that he
would act soon.
There is a rumor, not confirmed by
General Murray, that the soldiers will
be sent to the camp at o'clock to-
morrow, and that in the event the
campers do not dispense their tents
will be destroyed and the inmates
forced to dishand. The squad of 25
soldiers stationed at Providence guard
ing the Providence Coal company's
property, have not been ordered to
MadisOnville.

Mr.. Douglass Concludes,


After The Stars report of the proceed

continued to address the jury. He spoke
until O'Clock and then requested that
court adjourn until this morning. The
attorney eplained that he had been on his
feet for nearly three hours and was weary.
Justice Anderson remarked that the under
standing was that the defense should con-
ciude Its addresses yesterday, and suggest
ed that counsel do so. Upon further rep
resentatiOns. however. the adjournment
was taken as requested.
In connection with his argument late YES
terday Attorney Douglass asserted that
there was not sufficient evidence in the
case TO Justify even suspicion that Mrs
Boutne was infatuated with Ayres. The
speaker next attacked the suggestions that
MrS- Bontne went to Ayres' room for the
