Then Flash Light by Raising Covers
Brought to New York BY Clyde Liner.

New York City Five men, who con-
stituted the crew of the British three
masted schooner Syanara, Of Barba-
dos, who for seven days battled the At
lantic off the coast of South Carolina,
We're brought to this port by the Clyde
liner Apache from Jacksonville and
Charleston. The men. were rescued
about $3.50 o'clock in the morning, an
improvised iarelight from the fore.
castle stove having attracted the at
tention Of the officer on the bridge OF
the Apache.
The Syanara's fiarellght bids fair to
go down in marine history in class
all by itself. When the vessel became
waterlogged and her rigging had been
swept away, Captain Morehouse dis
covered that he had no hareligbts on
board. He accordingly had the fore
castle stove removed to the deck and
filled it with grease and wood. Every
once in while one of the crew would
remove the lid of the. stove and then
quickly replace it.
1t was a week ago that the Syanara
ran into the gale that was to prove
her master. The wind freshened ear
ly that morning, and by night was
blowing at a hurricane rate The star
board deck load stanchions gave way
first. Next the port stanchions went,
and with them the deck load The
seams forward then opened, and in
less than two hours the Syanara's hold
was full of water.
For four days the storm ragged with
unabating fury, and then when dark
ness came the Syanara was level with
the water, her decks awash, and not
shred of her sails remained in place.
At this time the craft was $50 miles
off the South Carolina coast, and Cap.
tain Morehouse realized that his only
chance Of rescue lay in getting back
into the track of the coastwise trade
Accordingly, George Rudolph, the
mate; Seaman Nyberg ald Jack Lon
don, negro, set to work to rig jury
sail. To do this they took the fore
staysaii boom and dashed it to the
break of the forecastle. Then they
made a square sail Of part of the
mainsail, and with this managed to
work what remained of the vessel to
within seventy miles Of the coast.
Then it was that the Apache found
them.

.LUNATIC RAN WILD in SHOP
After Pursuing Many, Patrick Har-
rigan Cut His Throat.
DYING, He FOUGHT HARD

elderly widower, Suddenly Becoming
insane in RrookIyn, N. Y. Shop,
Dashed Through the Building Armed
with a Razor-Panic Among Girls as
He sIasl,ed al His Neck.
New York City Becoming suddenly
insane in the brass finishing shop of
Stats & DiIlmeier, at 1910 South
First rtreet, Brooklyn, Patrick Harri-
gan. widower, sixty years old, after
trying with razor to wound his fell
low employees and terrorizing every
body in the building, cut his throat.
Notwithstanding the fact that his in
juries were fatal, he fought Po-
liceman Fallon, of the Bedford avenue
station, like a tiger and cut the police
mans left hand.
Harrjgan's wife died year ago and
1t is said he never recovered from the
blow. He kept house with his sixteen
year-old son. Some time ago he lost
a job in brass finishing plant through
a strike, and he has since hung around
Z
to get employment. William Dill
meier, member of the firm, took pity
on the man and gave him job as
not appear to be on his work, but Dill
meier said nothing to him. At z
O'clock in the morning Harrigan re-
ported for work and was at his bench
until 10 o'clock.
Then he suddenly screamed, and,
drawing razor, ran at the other work
men, slashing at them with the steel.
They outran him and escaped without
Injury. Schneider Brothers, shoe
manufacturers, and ]. Albert, manu-
facturer of cut glass, are in the same
building. Harrigan ran up to Schnei-
der Brothers place, where forty girls
were at work. In their presence he
cut his throat. The girls became panic
stricken and rushed frantically down
the stairs to the street A number of
them fell and were trampled on.
Meanwhile Harrigan had entered AL
bert's shop and terrified the employees
there. All this time he was hacking
at his throat. All the people in the
building ran into the street and left
the mailman in complete possession.
Policeman Fallon was attracted by
the tumult. FaIion drew his club and
entered the building. Harrigan was
behind a door and he made a savage
attack upon the. policeman. Fallon
used his club, and although he struck
the maniac again and again, the crazy
man seemed to be possessed. of super
human strength and succeeded in
wOunding Fallon.
Harrigan finally broke away from
the policeman and ran up an iron stair
way FaIlon followed On the second
landing they had another desperate
fight and both rolled down the stairs.
Harrigan arose and staggered into the
yard, where he fell on pile of ashes.
Fallon then disarmed the man and
quickly sent for an ambulance to the
Eastern District Hospital. DR.. Cam
eron found Harrigan dying and took
him at once to the hospital.
The Rev. Father O'Brien. of SITS. Pc
ter and Paurs Church, was summoned
and he administered the last rites Of
the Roman Catholic Church to Harri-
gan.
Some of the women who had been
chased out of the building were afraid
to return to work and went home.
