TWENTY SINK WITH SHIP.
STEAMER PECONIC LOST.
peSseJ O1cned Here Founders IN
Heavy Gale off Florida.
TRy Telegranh to The Trthune. l

Jacksonville Fla Aug. 2S-Through the
surf. which was running extremely high, two
sailors in lifeboat landed on Amelia Beach. in
front of Fernandina, this morning at 80 o'clock.
Ihey said they came from the steamer Peconic.
which was lost in gale Sunday night off
Cumberland Island. with crew of twenty
The men a Spaniard. Antoni Clark, and
an italian, Hugario Britiania. They were COM
pletely worn out when they landed on the beach
and little could be got out of them for an hour
or more.
According to their story the steamer Peconic. a
fruit carrier. sailed from Philadelphia, August
70, for New-Orleans. with a cargo of coal
Through some trouble to her boilers, she was de-
layed for a couple of days at the Delaware
Breakwater and then steamed slowly south.
Sunday. at noon. a stiff wind from the north
east sprung up, and increased until at midnight
1t was blowing gale from the north northeast.
About midnight it discovered that the yes
sci was in from ten to fifteen fathoms of water.
Captain Jones, the master of the steamer. gave
orders to head out tc sea. The man at the
wheel brought the vessel sharply around, di-
rectly in the trough of the sea The waves were
running high. and one struck her a powerful
blow, knocking her Oh her starboard beam ends.
AS she lay on her side the cargo of coal shift
ed, and she could not recover. The water be-
gan rushing into the ports and companion
ways and there no chance to do anything
to save her. Ten minutes from the time she
was struck by the monster wave she had sunk,
and out OF the twenty-five men on board only
two were afloat. Captain Jones and the others
went down with the vessel.
Antoni Clark says that he and Britania were
in the after part of the steamer when they real
lied that she was about to sink. They saw the
canvas covered lifeboat on the after davits,
and at once began cutting away the coverings.
They had just entered the boat, after swinging 1t
over the stern, when the steamer began 10 go
down. They cut the supporting ropes and struck
the water with a terrific jar, but the boat dld
not turn over. Clark says the force of the
wind and the high seas prevented their standing
by to rescue any shipmates.
The rest of the night they were swept on by
the sea and wind, and their boat was filed with
water but could not sink, as it had air tanks.
Shortly after daylight they sighted land, and
succeeded in landing on Amelia Island, directly
in front of a summer resort hotel.
Clark says that he did not know the captain s
first name. and he could not give the names
and addresses of any of the rest of the crew.
The mate was named James. The crew con-
sisted of five Spanish firemen two Spanish, one
French and the ten Italian sailors.

figure being S7,000,000. So far as can be learned
the directors of the company have not passed
finally on this offer. 1t is said to be the inten-
ton of the directors to hold meeting tomorrow
in Jersey City and it is likely that at that meet
ing the question Of the disposition of the road
will be determined definitely.
Sir Chentung Liang Cheng the Chinese Min
ister had a consultation in Washington to-day
on the subject with Mr.. Loonlis, Assistant Sec
retary of State. but the outcome of the confer

Hill in five six minutes.
Immediately the report was spread that the
President had sent for Mr.. Morgan in eonnec-
tion with the peace negotiations But the con-
ference had no relation to this subject.
MIR. Morgan left Sycamore Hill shortly after
8 o'clock. Before boarding the Corsair he said

OBITUARY..

Joseph Washer, one Of Denver's we'll
known business men, died last Tuesday
after brief illuess.
Joseph Washer was born in Poland,
Russia, forty-one years ago and has lived
in Denver almost twenty years. Few
men in the city could claim a larger cir
Gle Of friends. Known in West Denver
to every man, woman and child, the an
nouncement Of his death cast gloom
over the community. Joseph Washer
was strict orthodox Jew, and very
pious He was an active member in
many Jewish orders, namely, Order
B 'rith Abraham, I. O. B. A., K. O. T.
NJ, w. o. w., M. N. r. and B mai B 'rith,
and was associated with everything Jew
ish. The last noble deed Of his was to
subscribe $25 towards the Russian Jew
ish Relief fund at the Zera Abraham
synagogue a week ago Sunday night.
He was very charitable and did great
deal for the poor. He was trustee and
one of the founders of the j. G. R. S.
He was we'll to do and could have been
very wealthy had it not been for his
charitable inclinatiOns.
Hundreds Of mourners hasten to ten

HELPING DESTITUTE JEWS IN NEW
YORK.

In spite of public assertions to the con-
trary, we doubt whether any humanitarian
enterprise has been projected in modern
times from which larger, more practical and
beneficent results have come than from the
association directing the work carried on in
the United States under the Baron de Hirsch
fund. This fund amounts to about $3,O0O,-
900 and is in charge of board of managers
of whom Judge Myer S. Isaacs of New York
is president The fund is used chiefly in as
sisting individuals aiding Russian Jews to
leave congested urban districts for smaller
communities, and especially for farming
communities. 1t established nine years ago
one colony, or town, in Cape May county,
New Jersey, known as Woodbine. This
town has now reached a population of about
1000 and is progressing satisfactorily, the
people having work. either at farming or in
the trades, and having homes for which
they are slowly paying. An agricultural
school is conducted there, and in New
York school for instruction in the me-
chanical trades. The boys at the New
York school find work helpers and soon
make progress in the trades for which they
have been trained. Money is also loaned
from the fund at nominal rates, and factories
are built and rented in the same way. The
result of this businesslke system of philan-
thropy has been to put hundreds of worthy
Jewish families on the road to comfort
able livelihood Weekly.
