Took Line Ashore From the Sinking Ship in a
Hurricane and Saved the Crew Of the
SlOOp of War Huron.
HE STOOD ON HIS DECK AMID A RAIN OF BULLETS

Then Young made his way to the near
est telegraph station and made his
report of the affair to the navy de-
partment.
This resulted in the first of his sub
stantial promotions.
The next time Lucien Young was
called upon to face death at close
range was during the Spanish-Ameri-
can war. when he was in command of
the Hist, and 1t fell to his lot to enter
the harbor of Manzanalo on the south
shore of the island of Cuba, drive out
the Spanish gunboats which were
there and then cut the cables. This he
accomplished under a heavy fire.
The Spaniards on shore proved
very aggressive and poured a deadly
fire into the cable cutters, and at one
time Capt. Young. who personally
commanding one of the cutters. was
in the midst of a vertiable rain of
Spanish bullets. One ripped his sleeve
and another touched him lightly on
the shoulder.
An experience of different nature
which brought Lucien Young into the
public eye occurred at the time of the
revolution in the Hawaiian islands
The insurrectionists had deposed
Queen Lilioukalani and had raised the
American flag at Honolulu. Their
American war vessels had arrived in
the harbor under the command of Ad-
miral Erwin.
The latter ordered Young to go
ashore and haul down the flag. Young
declined. He told his superior officer
that he would submit gladly to court
martial but he never would have it
said of him that he hauled down his
country's flag.
He was not courtmartialed.
After the Spanish war Commander
Young was made captain of the port
of Havana and while stationed there
had an escape which is not chronicled
in the official records. He was re-
turning to his vessel in the harbor one
evening. after a day in town. AS he
was about to mount the ladder from
his small boat, being a heavy man and
the light not very good, he swayed
backward into the waters of Havana
harbor.
His bullies caught him by the heels
as he went down and pulled him back
into the tender

China sells to the United States.
taking the year 1904 as typical, s29.-
545,0Sl worth OF goods a year. The
principal Items in this trade are raw
SILK, tea, hides. opium and wool. The
raw silk imported by the United
States from China amounted in 1904.
to nearly s10,000,000, the tea imported
amounted to over $1,000 900, hides
came up to $2,600,000, wool to s2,3OO..
600 and opium to $1,194, 900.
But the chief advantage of this
trade to China-and the chief danger
to China If the boycott continues
lies In the fact that 1t is all free of
duty, with the single exception OF
WOOL. Out of the total imports of
S29,345,0Sl. which the United States
gets from China, $20,679. .247 are OF
goods which are on the free list.
Now a duty on raw silk or tea
even a small duty-would put a Grimm
INTO Chinese business with the United
states which would make merchants
In Shanghai sit up. And that is the
remedy which is open to the United
states If 1t appears that drastic meas
ures are to be necessary.
There Is no article which we buy
from China which we could not get
as well from other countries. Tea
Will come from India, silk from
France and India, hides from the Ar
gentine, and wool from the same
country and Australia.
Even the Chinese mattings. OF
which we buy $1,000,O00 worth n
year, could as well come from Japan.

ROADS WANT A
UNIFORM TICKET.

New York, July 25.-The uniform
ticket committees of the American
and Canadian railroads met here to-
day TO confer on the adoption OF a
uniform ticket contract. The value
of a uniform contract, in which all
the roads would join, can scarcely be
over-estimated, the passenger agents
declare. It is believed that II would
effectually put the ticket scalpers out
of business. After months Of effort
and consultation the committee has
now devised a contract which II be-
lieves all roads will be willing to
adolt as uniform.

injured. She says that while the chill
dren were playing around the stove,
the baby's dress caught on fire and at

washington. July 25.--Commander
Lucien Young, who was ashore at the
time the explosion occurred on the
Bennington in San Diego harbor, has
had his share of hair-breadth escapes.
The one which is best remembered,
although it occurred many years ago,
was in connection with the wreck of
the Huron. That was in the early '1Os
and Young was only junior officer.
One evening in the late fall the old
sloop of war Huron put out from the
harbor of Norfolk. 1t is said that she
was not in condition to get to sea,
and it is whispered about the navy de-
partment, that some of the officers had
dined too freely or their judgment
would have been better; but that was
a long time ago, and the navy is full
of gossip.
The fact remains that she put to sea
in the face of threatening weather and
with boilers which soon showed them
selves inadequate TO cope with the
stress and strain of a northeast gale.
In the course of the evening 1t became
apparent that the boilers were not
making steam, and before 10 o'clock
the engines were quite helpless and
the ship was drifting.
BY this time the Huron had made
way down the coast of North Caro-
lima to point near Kitty Mawk and
the northwest storm had developed
into hurricane before which the
ship was driving helpless upon the
breakers.
1t was then that Lucien Young and
a boatswain mate responded to a call
for volunteers to man the life line.
Taking a "balsa," which is species
of light float made for work in the
surf, and the life line connecting with
the ship, they sprang into the sea and
swan for the shore.
1t was a fight for their lives and for
that of the crew. After what seemed
an eternity to the swimmers, they
reached the shore, more dead than
alive.
but after a brief rest they went to
work on the deserted beach, for their
distress had not been discovered, and
succeeded in rigging a line from the
fast breaking up ship to tree on
shore. Over this line they operated
the traveller life-saving device, and
nearly all of the crew were rescued
