PANIC
BOLT STRIKES TROLLEY CAR
Five Hundred immigrants Are Imper-
He'd When Barges Break Away
From Their MoorInss at
Ellis Island
BOLT STRIKES TROLLEY CAR

BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Aug. Widespread
damage was caused by thunderstorm
of unusual violence, accompanied by q
high wind and a deluge Of rain that
burst over New York and vicinity to-
day.
A boat house at the foot Of One Hun
dred and Fifty-second street, in which
a large number of persons had taken
shelter, was struck by lightning and
Miss Jeanette Freer, aged 20 years, was
killed. A dozen other persons were rem
dered unconscious but quickly recov-
cred, sustaining no serious injuries.
A Webster avenue trolley car carry
ing nearly hundred passengers was
struck, the lightning running down the
trolley pole and grounding through the
tracks. Although the car and its occu-
pants were unscathed. panic was pre-
cipitated among the passengers. Four
teen persons, almost all women, were
injured in a frantic struggle to escape.
Nine Of them were severely hurt.
Many small boats were capsized In
the harbor. The immigrant steamer
John e. Moore effected several rescues.
Five hundred immigrants were IN
danger for an hour when two barges
on which they were broke away from
the dock at Ellis island and were blown
down the bay, pitching and rolling in
the heavy seas. Three tugs grappled
the barges and succeeded in holding
them until the storm subsided.
One death and three cases Of pros
tration resulted from the heat, which
was intense before the storm broke.

Special to The Herald.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-Inquiry
among officials of the Isthmian canal
commission elicits this fact that nearly
all of the $10,000,000 appropriated by
congress in 1904 for initiation of canal
work has been spent. 1t will soon be
necessary for the secretary of the treas
ury to begin the issuance of bonds for
carrying on of construction.
Supplies have been purchased in i'm
mense quantities during the last year.
The purchase of two ships alone cost
$1,000, 900. There is not much surprise
here at reports that work has been
stopped in Culebra cut, and that As
sistant Engineer Dauchey departed
from the isthmus on indefinite leave.
Necessity for sanitary work and more
rapid completion Of quarters for labor
ers and employees is now greater than
continued work on the Culbera cut.
Dauchey is competent engineer and
was a close friend of Wallace, the
former chief engineer. 1t is deemed
not improbable that he may now retire
to make way for some one desired by
the new chief engineer, Stevens. The
report that there has been trouble be-
tween Chief Engineer Stevens and
Gov Magoon of the canal zone is de-
clared absurd.

NEW ORLEANS

BY Associated Press.
NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 13.-The
heavy increase in the number of cases
which began four days ago is beginning
to manifest itself in the death list,
which can be expected to grow steadily
for the next few days. The number Of
new cases today seems small in COM
parison with yesterdays record, but it
is really nineteen short, as that num-
ber of cases were turned in by an in
spector just after the hour for closing
the report. These will figure in to-
morrow's report.
Among the cases today Is Louis
Cueullu, jr., cashier of the Peoples
bank. Another case is Maurice Kenny,
former councilman and former MEM
Der of the legislature. Two of Kenny s
daughters were stricken yesterday.
Only five of the new foci are above

Corrupt reported today that he had not
found single suspicious case, which
indicates that the prompt steps taken
to screen and fumigate the original
cases have been effective.
The great cause for the spread of the
disease has been the concealment of
cases and the change of residence of
people who have been infected.
Physicians who persist in not report
ing cases are to be prosecuted.

certificates they have.
While the mortality rate in the early
stages Of the visitation indicated that
the type of yellow fever was particular

it is not much worse than the fever in

BRADDoCK, Pa, Aug. 1s.-charles
M. schwab while in Braddock today
told some friends he would sail for
Europe next Tuesday to visit Andrew
Carnegie.
1t is known that schwab will take
with him some famous engineers and
that he is going abroad for the pur-
pose of closing his armor plate deal
with Russia.
The fact that he is to call on Car
negie has given rise to the report that
the Carnegie armor plate plant will get
25.OOOOOO share OF schwab's contract.
The Carnegie armor works at Home
stead show great activity and 1t is
understood that Russian armor plate
is to be rolled there and years work

TIA JUANA, Aug. 13.-Thrilling ex-
hibitions of bravery mingled with acts

day in the Tia Juana arena when four
bulls were fought to death by Felix
Robert and his company.
Challenging. unarmed, bull mad
