Many Sleep i'm the Parks While

New York, Nov. 22-In one of his
speeches some years ago President Ben
jamin Harrison said that the gates of
Castle Garden always opened inward,
never outward. Times have changed,
however, for now the outgo of foreign
laborers back to Europe, owing to the
shutting down of industries since the
financial stringency, has reached such
proportions that the steamship COM
panies are hard pressed to furnish ac-
commodation for them
Hundreds of the foreigners have been
obliged to wait until next week because
berthS could not be found for them
This week all the big Transatlantic
lines raised the steerage rate from $21
to $32, but still the demand for tickets
has increased. A representative of the
steerage department of the Hamburg
American line said that from New York
alone the number of foreigners depart
ing weekly was $4,000 and that $4,000, 900
was being taken away weekly by those
returning immigrants either in cash or
in drafts on foreign countries.
Steamers have just sailed, or are soon
to SAIL bearing from seven hundred to
5000 steerage passengers each. 1t is
the President Grant which will sail for
Hamburg next Wednesday, which will
have the 5000 foreigners. They will be
largely Russians, Poles and Hungar-
ianS.
The Pennsylvania, Erie, Lehigh, Bal
timore & Ohio. and Jersey Central
roads are using special trains to bring
the homegoers to this port. The exo-
dus seems to be greatest from the
Pittsburg district. The most conges-
ton is at Hoboken where trains land
carloads of immigrants every few
hours who are booked for passage by
the two great German lines. Scores Of
the foreigners have been sleeping in one
of Hoboken's parks despite the chilly
weather. A noticeable thing is that
women are comparatively few among
all these foreigners, the presumption
men who came to seek their fortunes
in America and that the rest are mar
ried men who left their wives in Eu-
rome

HEAD ON COLLISION.
Santa Fe Engines Collide in the Fog
This Morning.

A small head-on collision took place
in the Santa Fe yards this morning
just north of Eighth street. The col
lision occurred at 7:50 and was caused
by the two engineers not being able to
see the approaching engines on account
of the dense fog near this place at the
time.
The Santa Fe east bound freight train
No. 80 was just pulling into the Topeka
yards under orders to come up the main
line as far as Eighth street where they
were to sidetrack on a siding at that
place. Engine No. 1886 in charge of En-
gineer l.. A. Beaumont had started
south on the main track and intended
to go to Tenth street and back up a
switch from that point and get con-
nected with train No. 29, a west bound
freight which was due to leave at that
time. Conductor Thomas A. Verlin who
was in charge of train No. 80 was given
orders to come up the main line of
track to Eighth street which is con-
trary to the regular yard rules of the
Santa F'e at this place. He was reluct-
ant to obey and it was necessary to
send a fiagman to him in order to get
him to allow his train to come up to
Eighth street. Train No. 80 with engine
No 1856 in charge of Engineer Link
Gallety and Fireman Mahan according
ly started up the main line and engine
No 1886 started south. Just north of
the Eighth street crossing the collision
slowly and although both engines had
their headlights burning neither eng1-
neer could see the approach of the op-
posing engine until too late to avoid
the collision. Engineer Gallety detect
ed the approach of the other engine
when about ten feet in front of his en-
gine by the glare of the electric head
light. Engineer Beaumont was unable
to see the train at all.
But little damage was done. None OF
either crew were injured although both
were precipitated forward. The pilots
of both engines were badly demolished
and the frames of both engines badly
bent. The front trucks of engine No
1895 were wrenched from position and
a great deal of trouble in get
ting them back on the track Engine
No 1885 was teleScoped on top OF the
ether engine for a short distance and
after the collision was supported en-
tirely upon the other engine and its rear
drive wheels. Train No. 80 contained
twenty loaded cars which added to the
force of the collision. The first car in
the train contained sugar and was
had1v smashed up. The second car
contained corn and this too was badly
wrecked although not so much SO as
the forward car
A wrecking outfit which went fmmed- |
lately to the scene managed to clear
m the obstruction to the track by ten |
o'clock Train No. 18 which arrived !
from the south had to be detoured |
around through the yards and then |
back down to the passenger depot. A |
large crowd of spectators watched the |
work OF clearing up the wreck.

and the secretary might find ample
justification against criticism in con-
gress in the fact that he needs cash
to recoup his balance.
The matter of allotments is proving
somewhat delicate one. and care is
being taken to avoid any well founded
charges of favoritism. 1t Is felt at
the treasury department however,
that no just criticism will lie against
the action of the secretary. The pro-
posal to threaten banks to take away
their public deposits If they do not
comply with the wishes of the secre-
tarv Of the treasury has not been con-
sidered at the department. The fact
that circulation secured by the certi-
fcates can be retired within a year
without regard to the limit of mill
lion dollars a month imposed upon re-
tirement of notes based on other
classes of bonds will enable the banks
to expand as much as they desire to
meet the present emergency without
being loaded down with circulation
which they cannot retire or otherwise
employ when the supply of money be-
comes abundant. In this respect the
fact that the limit on retirement does
not apply to bonds which have been
called for redemption gives a peculiar
to the one year certificates
and the circulation which may be
based upon them makes such circula-
ton more elastic than would be the
case on ordinary classes of bonds.

possible. her safety in the matter of
construction has been of the first con-
sideration.
Her double bottom is divided by the
vertical keel and transverse frames into
compartments in which water ballast
may be carried. In fact the Mauretan-
ia is not only double-bottomed,s she is
double-sided, the double bottom being
carried well up the side of the ship.
This is only one precaution in the di-
rection of securing unsinkabilitY. The
lower deck is completely watertight.
Below it are the orlop and lower orlop
decks, and above are the main, saloon.
upper, promenade, and boat decks. 1t
is necessary, of course, that there
should be means of communication be-
tween one watertight compartment and
those contiguous, and on the Maure-
tania, as on board the Lusitania, Caro-
mia and Carmania, the doors at, or
below the water line, are OF a special
type, and can be closed automatically
from the navigating bridge, and that in
a few seconds. In all, the Mauretania
has ITS watertight compartments. SO
that it may be claimed for her that she
is as unsuitable as a ship can be,

MAKING ALLOTMENTS.
Secretary Cortelyou Is ParceIling Out
the Treasury Certificates.

Washington, Nov. 2-Announce-
ment is made by Secretary Cortelyou
that allotments have already begun of
the new one year treasury certificates
in the circular of the treasury depart
nlept issued on Monday. Allotments
of the 2 per cent Panama bonds will
not be made, according to the terms
of the circular relative to them un-
til after ali bids are submitted at the
close Of business on November 80.
The secretary intimated that appli-
cations for both bonds and certificates
were being received in satisfactory
amounts but he was not prepared as
yet to disclose the volume of sub
scriptions and allotments. One reason
for this is understood to be that there
are SO many inquiries for information
from persons who do not submit def
mite subscriptions. Another reason is
that allotments are being made with
a certain degree of discrimination
where it is believed they will have the
best effect upon the money market.
The discretion reserved in his origi-
nal offer of the per cent certificates
that ''S5O, 100000 would be allotted by the
secretary in his discretion upon offers
of subscriptions addressed to him." has
brought a great variety of orders and
suggestions among which it is some
what difficult to choose as to those
most advantageous to the government
and the financial situation. 1t is is not
expected that these offers will en-
body a premium over the purchase
nrice because of the short term for
which they are run and the provision
of the circular that they are offered at
par The most essential elements to
be considered are the amount of cash
required to be paid into the treasury
and if national banks taking the GER
tificates will employ them to increase
circulation The secretary is almost
compelled by the terms of the law un-
5ar which fhe certificates are issued tO
retain some part of the proceeds in the
treasury, since the law authorizes their
issue to meet extraordinary expendi-
tures The nominal cash balance of
the treasury stood today at ony S.
952,412 after deducting the amount of
public money on deposit in national
banks. This is obviously below the
working requirements OF the treasury

Oklahoma Commission Makes 60 Per
Cent Cut in Coal.

Guthrie. Ok, Nov. 22.-The corpora
ton commission has issued an order
notifying all Oklahoma railroads that
would go into effect January 8.
The notice was issued after a lengthy
conference with Attorney General
West. 1t specifies that the rate to be
established shall be similar to the one
maintained in Arkansas. The Okla
homa railroads have the highest sche-
dule on coal shipments in the south
west The action taken is the result
of an investigation made by the attor-
ney general.
The board also issued orders requir-
ing the railroads to submit the extent
of their holdings to ascertain the value

Muskogee, Nov. 22.-The Transmissis-
sippi commercial congress will meet
next year at San Francisco.
When the cities were fighting for the
honor of the next annual meeting of the
congress President Loveland in a voice
choked with sobs, told of his sitting
with the committee of fifty appointed to
receive the messages of sympathy
which flashed from the corners of the
earth to the stricken city Of San Fran
cisco on the days that followed the
great horror and with tears in his eyes
he asked that the honor be given to
the metropolis of the west. San Fran
cisco had won before the cheers that
answered President Loveland's speech
had died from the hail.

RIOT IS STARTED.
Attempt to Reduce Wages Meets With
Opposition

Joliet, ILL.,. Nov. pa riot occurred
today as result of a strike following
an attempted wage reduction among
stone Quarrymen. Strikers and men
wishing to work clashed in a bloody
fight. Revolvers were used. but most
of the shots were fired in the air to
intimidate. Stones were thrown and q
number of men on both sides were hit
but no serious injuries are reported
The riot occurred in the vicinity Of the
Western Stone company's Quarries
southeast Of Joliet.
The wage sale of 20 cents an hour
for ten hours, it was announced, would
be reduced to 171a cents an hour for
nine hours. In consequence the men
in the various Quarries have been on
strike since last Monday. Today the
men from the quarries at Lemont, ILL.,,
went to Joliet to take the places of
some of the strikers and this precipi-
tated the clash. Police and deputy
sheriffs are now patrolling the quarry
district.

until the next high tide at $50 p. nj.
Newport, r. l., Nov. 22.-The Cunard
line steamship Mauretania turned Nam
tucket lightSlIip some time after mid
night last night and according to wire
less dispatches received here was be-
tween Montauk and Fire Island at s
a. m, proceeding very slowly on ac-
count of the fog.
New York. Nov. 22.-Another obstacle
In the shape of a dense fog is delaying
the Cunard liner Mauretania thus fur
ther marring what was confidently ex-
pected to be most successful maiden
voyage. Soon after leaving Queens
town last Sunday morning the big
steamer ran into a severe storm, which
lasted the better part of three days.
Terrific head seas and high gales re-
duced the splendid speed of the vessel
and by the time these conditions
changed it was known by means of
wireless telegraphy the westward record
of her sister ship, the Lusitania, could
not be eclipsed on this trip. However,
the steamer was put to top speed, and
some balm was offered to those on
board when the steamers run for the
fourth day showed 624 knots, thus top
ping the Lusftania, which took the
blue ribbon for the best days run on
the last voyage by six knots.
1t was believed then that the Maure-
tania would reach Sandy Hook by day
break today, but this hope was shat
tered when the Mauritania ran into a
dense fog off the New England coast
late last night and speed necessarily
had to be materially reduced. A brief
wireless dispatch was received here
early today via the Marconi station at
SouthweI fleet, Mass. 1t told of an
enthusiastic concert which was held
aboard last night. The dispatch. how
ever, was not timed and failed to give
the position Of the steamer.
The observer at Sandy Hook report
ed this morning that the thickest fog
in many a day hung along the coast
and that he had looked into a blank
wall of white throughout the night.
Steamers can only crawl in such wealth.
er. so that it will probably be well on
in the day before the Mauretania can
reach the Sandy Hook light house.
Thus she will be from 9 to IL hours
behind the best record of the Lusitanfa.
