CAPTAIN AND HIS COOK ! SAVED FROM THE WRECK
Were Twelve Hours the FOreboom-Ihe Schooner Which Was Wrecked Near Saybrook. is Three Quarters Full of Water-The Vessel Has Aboard 25O Cords of Wood.

Saybrook Point. Dec. 2--After sit efng astride the foreboom for tWelye hoIIrs Captain Lee and his cook of the wrecked schooner Addie Jordan were taken off at 3 o'clock this morning by Captain Joseph Smith, of the DUCK Island Light, and was none the worse for their trying experience.
 The schooner remains full of water three quarters of mile east of the East Breakwater off this point, and IS the sea has gone down 1t is likely that she will be hauled off with little damage. Captain Lee in an interview today said: "We had 250 cords or wood aboard, and had a good trip up from Norfolk. saw the Saybrook Iight and under the impression that 1t was New London I had the vessel deaded in. After picking up the coast line yesterday morning 1 found our that had mistaken the light and be- fore the Jordan could be headed otf shore she had drifted on to Saybrook Bar. I reckon we would have been all right had we not sprung leak just then which we tried to keep down Dy manning both pumps. The wind came up and at daybreak the seas began to break over the decks. Sev- eraI of the crew took to the small boat. while the cook and myself stay ed aboard. Tn the afternoon We had to take to the foreboom which would not have been very uncomfortable had we been dry. Captain Smith came off this morning and took us ashore I do not yet know whether the Jordan will be saved or not, but as the sea is calm the chances are good. The ves- geI is owned by R. W. Hutchins of Norfolk who bought her for the bills after she sank in the Deleware some lime ago. This was the first trip of the Jordan since she was repaired.
 Captain Lee who is 72 years of age said that he did not suffer from his experience He put man on board the schooner to-day to keep posses sion.
 Captain Smith who saved the two men is a veteran at this work He has q gasoline launch which he has fo keep inside the bar at Grove Beach. Last summer he tried to have the gov .ernment build him shelter on the beach in which he could keep his launch. Had he had such shelter. he could have taken off the men early yesterday as he would not have had. to wait for the tide over the bar off Westbrook.

 Are WerhAna klard.

New York, Dec While it has been otticlally announced that the clialm Of one of her largest creditors tile one whose suit brought aDouL all Lne pupl4cIty gwen her arfalrs WouIu De satisfactorily seItled, there was no dimInuLlon or interest tO-aay ill the case of Mrs Cassie Cnauw4cK, the Cleveland woman Whose nnanclaI anairs have Iurnlsned d serIes ot sen sationS almost unparaileled. The clam of herbert D. Newton, tue BrooKline, Mass, man, for neally pzOU,uuO, which apparently has been removed from furrner consiuera tlvll, aceord1Ilg to q sTatement Of Mrs Chaawlck' s attorneys, was only an incident. Other clalms still pending are known to aggregate four times that amount, they say, and for all they know may total one hundred times tue sum named by Newton. Many of the claims against her, the attorneys say, have no basis in facr and the claims will be shown to be fraudule-st at the roper time. That all the just debts will be met they still maintain and at the same time make the announcement that Mrs Chadwick will still have millions left when all her creditors have been sat- isfied.
 Mrs Chadwick is still in her suite of rooms at the Holland house, but she has notified the management that she will give up her rooms either to. day or tomorrow. It is believed that she will quit the city tomorrow, when she will go either to her home in Cleveland to be present at the bearing on an application for a receiver for her property, or else she will travel south. It is said that she has engaged a private car for her journey Mrs Chadwick's attorneys had promised that she would make public either to- day or tomorrow a general statement covering every phase of the case from her viewpoint: This statement was expected to throw light on many points now envoived ih mystery and was anxiously awaited.

Tokio, Dec 2 t11t a. m.)-Imperial headquarters makes the announce, ment that seventeen officers have been killed and 2sixty-four wounded in the field. bus does not mention the place. It is presumed that 1t was at Port Ar thur.
 The details of the attack of the swordsmen at Port Arthur are un. known here. and difference of opin- ion exists as to whether any of the at- tacking parties were armed exclusiN &y with swords. Possibly many of the soldiers carried swords in addition to tlleir bayonets. for the Japanese retain much ancient respect for the. sword and continue training with ft despite the opposition of the officers of the newer school The results of this sword attack were evidently negative.
 The wounded leg of General Naka. mura has been amputated.
 The party under General Saito re tired and did not press the attack
