FIRE IN HER HOLD.
Steamship Pretoria Forced to Return
After Transferring Passenger

NEW YORK, March 30.-The steamer
Pretoria, of the Quebec line, returned to
this port tonight with fire in her forward
hold. Fire beats have gone TO her aid. Her
passengers came in a short time previously
on the steamer Noordland, Of the American
line, having been transferred at sea. The
Pretoria left this port Saturday afternoon
bound for Hamilton, Bermuda, with Capt.
Mckenzie in command. AT midnight smoke
was seen coming out of the forward hold.
The fire could not exactly be located for
some hours, but when at 9 a. m. to-day
the steamer Noordland. which was bound
from Philadelphia TO Liverpool, came in
sight she was signaled, and as she drew
aloh gside the Pretoria Captain Mckenzie
began a thorough search of the hold of his
vessel to ascertain just how bad the fire
was. On the matches being opened he found
that a shipment of hay in the front COM
partment was blazing fercely, and the dam
ger was heightened by the fact that the
next compartment was stored with pc
troleum. Captain Mckenzie then decided
TO remove his passengers, and soon after
ward they were transferred 10 the Noord-
land and both vessels came on to New
York.
NEW YORK. March 3O.-The Pretoria
had on board twenty-eight first cabin pas
sengers. ten IN the second cabin and nine
teen in the steerage. The officers say that
at the time the passengers were transferred
at sea TO the Noordland the wine was
blowing strongly and there was a heavy
sea running. In spite of this, the transfer
ence was safely accomplished and all the
passengers behaved admirably. Two of the
city's fire boats have done such good work
assisting the crew to drown out the fire
that il is thought the flames will be kept
under control.
The Pretoria is one of the finest boats
belonging TO the fleet of the Quebec Steam
ship Company. For many years she has

ON SOW AND PIGS LEDGE
IRON STEAMSHIP INDIAN WRECKED
OFF CUTTYHUNK ISLAND.
Her Four Taken Of
Steamer Lake Superior, with 1000
immigrants, Aground.

WOODS HOLE, Mass, March 30.-The
iron steamer Indian, from Philadelphia, for
Boston, went ashore on the famous Sow
and Pigss ledge, of Cuttyhunk island, at
the western entrance of Vineyard sound
last night during a heavy fog and is likely
to become a total wreck. She was not dis
covered until daylight this morning. but
owing TO a heavy sea the life-savers were
unable TO reach her until this afternoon,
when they took off her four passengers,
one OF them a woman, and landed them at
Cuttyhunk. From what is known of the
position of the steamer there appears little
prospect of her being saved.
The Indian is a ~well-known steamer of
the Boston & Philadelphia Steamship Com
pany and has been on the line practically
ever since her launching. making weekly
trips between the two ports. She is LIB
tons net burden, 227 feet in length, IS feet
in breadth and 20 feet deep. Captain Crow
ell, her commander. has been in charge of
the Indian for some years and is consid-
cred an experienced eaman and navigator.

On the export side of the account manu-
facturers are howing IN improved record.
The Bureau of Statistics reports of exports
of manufactures during both January and
February show a decided increase over the
corresponding months Of 1901. the gain In
the two months in question being more than
100000 over the same months Of the pre-
ceding year. The exports of manufactures
in the twenty-eight days Of February were
$31. 14O .S42. against $780, 02, 592 In February,
1901. In practically all articles except iron
and steel there has been a complete re-
covery from the temporary check in exports
of manufactures noted a few months ago.
Copper exports, for instance. in February
of this year were $4,210, SCI. against SO. 155. IA
in February. 1901; though for the eight
months the total still stands eight and one
half millions below that of the same period
of the preceding fiscal year. Exports or
refined mineral oils for the eight months
ending with February, 1902, are $44. $50. 9S7.
against s4l,S80,021 in the corresponding
months of the preceding year. Even iron
and steel exports show a marked improve
ment. the total for the month of February
being 1885, G6, against 81, S59. 21S in Feb
ruary. 1901, and $3.50, 157 in February. 1900.
For the eight months ending with February
the exports of iron and steel MANUFACTURED
are S64. 66S, 424. against SS1, SIS, SIS in the cor
responding months of the preceding year.
Manufactures of cotton show an increase
OF nine millions over the corresponding
period of last year; manufactures of leather
an increase of two millions: parafin, which
a few months ago showed a decrease. now
shows a gain OF nearly two millions over
the corresponding months of last year.
while i'm nearly all of the other Important
manufactured articles exported there are
gains over last year. The total exports of
manufactures fall for the eight months
ending with February but twelve millions
below those of the same months of last
year, while the fact that manufactures of
iron and steel alone are seventeen millions
less than in the eight months of last year
shows that in other articles there has been
a decided gain.
