few hundred feet of the 2OO-foot level
This has been done and 600 stamps have
resumed the work of crushing ore.
During the enforced shutdown something
like $500 men have been idle, but in laying

days of wrangiing and impassoned dis
cussion and constant narrow divisions on
the clauses of the resolutions. The ma

ward resolutions, but all attempts to reach

POLITE CONDUCTOR
DROPPED BABY.
Two Unconscious After Strik-
ing Head on Running Board,
But Will Recover.

Mrs. George Ray, of 1882 North Sixth
street, was returning to her home
shortly before midnight last night with
her ~2-year-old son George, when at
Sixth street, where she wanted to
alight, the conductor of the Bloomfield
car In which she was riding offered
to lift the child off the car. He took
the boy in his arms, and just as the
mother stepped off the conductor ac-
cidentally dropped the baby. The little
fellow landed on his head on the rum
ming board. Roundsman Stillman and
Policeman Murk, of the Fifth Precinct
police station, took mother n child
to the office of DR.. Robert w. Chap
man, at $50 Bloomfield avenue.
When they arrived there the child
was unconscious, and 1t was at first
thought that he would die. After some
little time consciousness was restored,
and with the assistance of the police
the mother made her way home. This
morning the child was able to be up.
but is still suffering from the effects
Of the fall.
This morning DIR. Chapman stated
that the mother was in a pretty bad
state when taken to his office. He
said he thought hat the conductor saw
her condition. and for this reason vol
unteered his aid. He said the child

Miss Allen Claims Austrian

NEW YORK. July n.-Disappointed at
his failure to make her baroness, Miss

suit In the City Court against Baron Egon
Won Nuvelly, of Vienna, Austria, for $4,000
damages for alleged breach Of promise OF
marriage.
Miss Allen. 1t is said, would not spurn
an offer to go on the stage, but what she
now desires most, Is satisfaction from the
Baron and The recovery of her trunk,
which is being held for a weeks bonrd at
q hotel to which she says he took her in
West Twenty-seventh street.
The Baron, 1t seems. came to New York
two years ago. He was formerly a lieu
tenant in tho Austrian navy. He seemed
to have a good income, and occupied apart
ments 1T l76 West Eignty-first street, be-
Ing a familiar figure about the White Light
district. )
Miss Allen declares he was introduced
to her by a friend on Tune II. They
went to a Broadway hotel for dinner, she
says, and her friend excused himself and
never came bsck. The Baron ordered wine
freely, and she drank.
THE next day. she says. The told ms

promised to take her to Inner and asked
him to take his place. The girl told him
she had no place to sleep. he said, and
no money, and like a gentleman he rented

HALTS Fifteen
CAR LINES IN
BROOKLYN
Flood From Broken Water
Main Holds All Traffic
Suspended.

NEW YORK, July 1~1.-Through the
bursting of a twenty-inch water main
at the junction of Fulton, Adams and
Willoughby streets, Brooklyn. today,
fourteen lines of surface cars, and the
Fulton street elevated line were COM
pletely tied UP. The subway being built
under the street was flooded. Water
poured into the cellars of buildings,
and because of holes made in the
streets there was a suspension Of all
traffic.
The main broke at 5 o'clock. and in
stantly water shot in the air a dis
tance of thirty feet above the elevated
structure. Near where the main broke
the street is covered with planking
over the uncompleted subway. The
water was oon pouring into the tun-
mel in a tremendous stream. 1t also
ran like a river up Fulton street a dis
lance of 70 feet, and in places got high
above the sidewalk.
Among the cellars flooded were those
of the Kings County Trust Company
and the National City Bank.
Almost from the first the flow of
water was such that the officials feared
a cavern of the elevator supports, and
all trains were stopped. Then the
street cars began blocking up the four
teen lines that cross at the junction.
Before the water could be turned off
It had been rushing from the main for
almost an hour Holes had begun to
appear in the streets, making traffic
dangerous, and the police reserves
formed a Gordon about the junction
and kept all persons back, fearing hat
there would be a serious cave-in.
On the theory that the fire engines
could get the water from the streets,
Engine Company No. 107 was called,
but before the water could be pumped
into nearby sewers 1t flowed into the
subway openings. How much damage
was done there could not be estimated
until the engineers had made a report.
Chief Engineer Mendes, of the Brook
lyn Rapid Transit Company. finally APP
peared and said there would be no dan
ger in running the elevated trains over
the spot. He explained that the eleva-
ted is built on concrete and 1t would be
impossible for the road to sink.
When the rush hour was at It's height
he was permitted to run the first train
over the flooded street. Then other
trains followed. all at a snail's pace.
Such was the condition of the street
under the surface tracks, however, that
the street cars were held back until
tests of the track were made with
heavily loaded tool cars.
After thorough tests were made 1t
was decided to permit the Fulton street
surface cars to run over the regular
course, but the crosstown lines were
made to take other routes.
