Wall Street Rapidly Receivers From
Thursdays Panic. L
New York, May IL. Wall street has
emerged from its gloom with growing
confidence. There were some clouds
remaining ON the situation and some
natural trepidation lest the violent
collapse should have left some cas-
5ualties which would not be disclosed
until the clearing house sheets Of the
Stock Exchange had been made up.
Early in the day the Official announce
sment was made that the sheets OF all
members Of the exchange had been
cleared perfectly and that all their
checks had been honored. This re-
6lteved the last feeling Of apprehen-
sion and the feyerfshness and anxious
signs which were manifest in the
Stock Exchange during the first hour
disappeared. Things quieted down
into q steady condition Of business
such as has not been witnessed in
Wall street for many weeks.
The measures taken over night to
clear the situation left little to fear.

MUCH PROPERTY BURNS.
Heavy Loss From Fire In DeIray, a
Suburb Of Detroit.

SupQrp OF Detroit.
Detroit, May 13.-Fanned by 35-
mile an hour wind fire swept the west
bank of the Rouge river in Delray, a
suburb to the south of Detroit, for
three-Quarters of mile and destroyed
over 100000 worth of property. The
fire originated shortly after ! o'clock
in the roof of the salliotte & Fer
gason lumber mill. The mill had not
been running for several months and
the roof was as dry as tinder. The
building was soon in ashes and the
fire swept across dock to where
dredge No. 5 Of the Carkin, Stickney
& Cram feet of dredges was tied up.
Despite efforts to save her this craft
was burned to the waters edge.
Great embers were picked up by the
wind and dropped on the roof Of
Brownlee & Co.'s mill and the Salt
block and both these buildings were
destroyed.
Delray has very small fire de-
partment and a call for help was sent
to the Detroit department, which re-
sponded with three engines and the
fireboat Battle. Even the great
streams from the fireboat were power
less to check the flames, which were
rolling down the river bank for hun
dref1s of feet.

feared that the bloodshed and. riotous

a large number Of

assembled during the night, the crowd
growing until 1t numbered 10000 or
more by the time the company was
ready to send out its first car.
When the car made It's appearance,
guarded on both front and rear plat

with cries Of derision, but squad of
policemen cleared the way and it
passed away from the vicinity of the

Sunday night and took on a load Of
corn. When in the act Of backing
away from the wharf the boat swung
around and struck the bank heavily
with her stern: A snag imbedted In
the bank tore an enormous hole in the
hull, through which the water rushed
with frightful rapidity. She at once
began to settle and at the end Of three
minutes nothing but her roof, Texas
deck and pilothouse remained above
water. -
IS The impact with the hidden snag,
accompanied as It was by the. awful
noise caused by the shifting of the car
go, aroused the passengers to reali-
zation of their danger. The officers
acted with great GOODNESS and as the
boat settled helped the startled pas
ssengers to the cabin roof from which
the boats were lowered and their
charges carried ashore.
Miss Mabel Gardner Of st. Louis
was asleep in her stateroom when the
shock came and probably lost her life
by remaining to dress. Her body was
found in the forward part of the cabin.
The body of DR.. Bell has not yet been
recovered and it Is supposed he was
drowned in his stateroom like a rat in
a trap.
The crew and their roustabout
helpers being on the lower deck in the
midst Of the cargo when the vessel
struck. were placed in a position Of
most awful peril. As the steamer ca.
reened in settling, the big cargo, con
sisting chiefly of sacks of corn, shift
ed and before the men could escape
half of them were pinned down and
either crushed to death or held until
the water brought about their end.
The passengers lost all their belong
ings and had to be supplied by those
on shore.
The City Of Paducah lies in about
80 feet Of water and the loss will~be
total. She was valued at $4,000.
