FRED PECK DENIES TIE STORY.

have been half successful in this, too. The company consents to meet at any time with a committee of bhe local union for the adjustment of any troubles. The men fully appreciate the fact that all reforms cannot be obtained at once. We have this to contend with, and that is the officers of the company do not quite under stand the purposes of thA Amalga- mated association. They are the last body in the country to make trouble. and will exhaust every effort to avoid 1t. For instance, our memorandum Of agreement submitted by us to the company is exactly what is in opera ton between all the western trolley companies and their employees, and is found to be of mutual advantage. Now we feel that we have uphill work to bring the company to that point, and we feel that we cannot do 1t at the present time. They perhaps have their reasons or prejudices which will have to be overcome.
 The question was asked afont the feelings of the men toward the com pany engaging so much outside help at the present time. This brought laugh and this reply: 1T guess the company were preparing for The worst. We fully expect that tne company will do the right thing by To- cal men when they feel that they can trust Bridgeport help. If the coin- pany feel that they can trust us they will not be going outside for conduc tors and motormen"
 The next meeting of the Bridgeport union will be held the Both of this month and the matter will be brought, up then for final action No special meeting of the union will be called for the purpose of considering the matter.

SHAMROCK HI IN HARD LUCK.

a sudden squall struck the yachtA broadside on. The topmast of the Shamrock II was carried away and then her mainmast went by the board, carrying all her sails with it and leav- ing her practically a wreck. The Shamrock l was also considerably dam aged No one was injured on board either of the yachts, but King Edward, who was on the Shamrock II, had q miraculous escape. Two women who were on board that yacht the Mar chioness of Londonderry and Mrs w. G. Jameson, also narrowly escaped tA jury.
 The hull of the Shamrock III was not damaged. The mast went over board In one solid piece. There was at that time only one break, which was about seven feet above the deck. As the big spar, with it's weight of canvas, became heavier owing to the water in in the mast against buckled, its head going down till 1t rested on the bottom. It is believed it will be comparatively easy to repair the mast; but q whole suit of canvas is ruined.
 Barges with a crane were soon on the spot to raise the broken mast, after WHICH tu6 SAdHLOCh HI VIII be lNhSS to her. moorings inside the breakvklter

V E Ratsey, the sailmakerl and Colonel Sherman Crawford vice commodore of the Royal Ulster Yacht club, board ed the challenger. which made mag nifcent picture, as under her cloud of canvas she drove past Nothe Head,
 The Erin had taken ap position to send the boats away, round q triangu- lar course, and everything seemed to promise fine race. The Shamrock III then made short board on the point. tack, dragging through heavy squall with her lee decks awash., At about 10:40 a. m, when nearly mile off shore, she went about on the starboard tack, to stand up to crossing the line, when a sudden gust of wind sweeping out of Weymouth bay, struck the yacht and completely dismantled her. The yachts decks were crowded with Sir Thomas Lipton's guests, officers and men and it seemed impossible that the disaster was not attended by serious loss of life. The weather rigging screws of her main shrouds gave way and her mast carried away close to the deck, anP with 1t went sails grinding In confused mass Of wreckage. As the shrouds gave way the immense steel tubular mast swayed for frac- ton of second and went overheard, creating general havoc as it went. So sudden was the calamity that the yacht lay wrecked and helpless. before those on board of her we'll realized what had happened. Fortunately most z of the tremendous weight of the gear fell clear of the deck, as otherwise the disaster must have been multiplied ten A ! 1oa that of a member of the crew named Collier. a brother-in-law of Captain Wringe. Collier at the moment of the accident, was handing q binocular glass to Sir Thomas Lipton and still had the glass In his hand when he was struck by some of the tumbling gear blocks and wire ropes on the metal Heck of the boat drowned all other sounds for the time.
 The lull which followed was broken by sharp order from Captain Wringe to get away boat. The captains self-possession spurred the crew to in. stant action and boat was put over board, manned and started in search oi Collier. Boats were also dropped from the Shamrock I and Erin and in q couple of minutes these were all head ing for the scene of the accident Collier, however. never reappeared. A mum CT of others were injured by fall ing gear, but none was seriously hurt Sir Thomas Upton was knocked dowl q hatchway and one of his hands was injured but not seriously.
 Clearing away the wreckage wal quite difficult task. owing to the na ture of the spars and gear. The Eril passed line to the wrecked yacht anC stood by her to give all the aid neees sary

 Patrick Flynn, of the Cork branch of the United Irish league then mounted the platform, and few second later MT Flynn held the convention spellbound by the extra. ordinary eloquence with which he in, sisted that the present occupants of holdings which formerly belonged to evicted peasants should themselves be evicted.
 This peasant orator worked up a storm against "grabbers," but MI O'Brien's more moderate counsels pre- vailed
 Throughout the morning peasant speakers discussed the details of, the bill with intelligence. Lord Dunraven was referred to as good landlord'' and his name was greeted with cheers
 MT O'Brien's suggestions. as rule were passed without division.
 John Redmond and Lord Dunraven had an informal meeting this morning and decided to postpone the sitting o1 the landlords and tneants' conference which will probably be held in London next week.
