the interior, delivered an address COW
ering the organization and work of the
department of the interior He narrat-
ed IN a general way all that has been
accomplished by the department since

which the department is compelled to
meet from time to time, and said:
Amend or Repeal.
IF the laws are unjust and oppress-
to amend or repeal them If the people
fail to exercise their rights and duties
at The primaries. they cannot complain
if politicians, thinking only of their
political debts, resort to methods and
accomplish results which the patriot
would either regard with contempt or
Indignantly expose.
Just so long as government officials
wear the collar of those to whom they
are Indebted for their nomination and
appointment, just so long will we have
land frauds by perjury, illegal fencing
of the public domain to the exclusion
of the pioneer home-builder and the
speculative CRATER ready and eager to
rob the nations wards of their right

STORM SWEEPS
EASTERN COAST
New York in the Clutches of
Wild, Wintry BIaSt-Wind,
Hail and Rain.
SEVERAL PEOPLE KILLED
WRECK OF A BARK OFF SANDY
HOOK.

New York. Dec. 14.-Lashed by the
fierce blows of a heavy northeastern
New York is tonight in the wintry
clutches Of a storm of wind. hail and
rain which has completely swept the
whole Atlantic coast from Hatteras to
Maine. hampered transportation, de-
moralized lines of communication with
the outside world and threatened all
ships under sail or steam that sought
TO make ports in the teeth of the six
ty-mile gale. Down off Sandy Hook
the bark Edmund Phinney went 10
pieces on the sandy shore after her
skipper and crew had been rescued
in the breeches buoy. Eleven trans
Atlantic steamships due in this port
today were still unrepOrted at Sandy
Hook at 10 o'clock tonight. though no
apprehension is felt for their safety.
Six coastwise steamships that set sail
today for southern ports turned back
from the pitching and pounding seas
that met them at the harbOr gateway
and anchored in the shelter of Sandy
Hook bay.
Killed by Falling Bricks.
The powerful blasts snapped off
twenty feet of the 3OO-foot brick chin
ney of the New York Steam Heating
company on Sutton place, in this city,
and sent il topping on a wooden
shack in which a Waterman, David
Dooley, was standing. The man was
instantly killed. Several tons of brick
and mortar fell upon the house of
Henry Speitel and crushed through the
entire structure. seriously injuring Mrs.
Speitel and her two daughters. Two
|, other houses adjoining were damaged.
In another part of the town an I'M
known man was killed by a falling
tiagpole.
Swept Up the Coast.
The storm center, which started in
Mississippi swerved eastward and
swept up the Atlantic coast. From the
northeast came a fierce gale, driving
heavy clouds of rain. and cutting sleet
followed it. The rain turned to snow
and then to rain again, but the wind
doomed steadily along at sixty miles
an hour. The rain hung to telephone
and telegraph lines and froze. and the
freighted wires cracked and snapped
while scores of poles toppled over
Both telegraph companies had much
difficulty in even partially restoring
communication in any direction. West
ward from New York communication
by wire was almost impossible. A sin
gle wire TO Boston was all that re-
manned tonight of the scores of tele-
Sraph trunk lines through New Eng
land. North, south and west there was
much wire interruption from sleet and
wind, but New England seems to have
been the worst sufferer. Railroad traf-
fic suffered much delay, and surface
and elevated lines in New York had
difficulty in maintaining any sort of
adequate service.

WRECK OF THE PHINNEY.
Vessel Went TO Pieces as Last Man
Was Swung Off.

New York, Dec 14.-Caught in the
storm of wind and snow that swept
down from the northeast today. the
American bark Edmund Phinney. Cap
tain Alfred Anderson, was piled on the
sands of Sandy Hook beach and bat
tered TO pieces by mountainous seas.
With great difficulty her crew. half
dead from exposure, was rescued by
the Sandy Hook and Spermacette Cove
life-saving crew, after cIinging to the
hulk for several hours, the last man
having scarcely swung off in the
breeches buoy, when the broken and
battered bark went to pieces and dis
appeared in the boiling waters. Not
another man could have been saved,
80 suddenly did the bark disintegrate
before the maddened seas.
Suffering, but Safe.
Tonight the Phinneys crew are safe
ly housed by the life-savers, but they
still are suffering from the hours of
exposure to storm and cold while cling
ing to the rigging. The Edmund Phin-
ney was bound from Savannah to Perth
AmbOy, n. j., laden with lumber and
railroad ties The storm came upon
her as she hove in sight of the light at
Navesink Hill islands. about > O'Clock
this morning, and when she reached
Scotland lightship at Z o'clock the sea
was dashed by a driving northeast gale
and the air was thick with snow. Can
tain Anderson attempted to pass in
through the south channel which is
surrounded by shoals, but lost his
course and the little craft struck the
shOal about a mile from the Hook.
Both anchors were let go but they
failed to hold in the yielding sands.
and the vessel began to drift toward
the beach with mountainous surf giving
promise to destruction With clothing
frozen stiff and exposed to every
sweeping wave, her little company hud-
died together on the after-house,
waiting and hoping for succor.
Heroic Life-savers.
The Sandy Hook and Spermacette
life-saYers' patrol sighted the bark long
before she reached the beach. The
crews were summoned and took the line
gun TO the beach. where after many
Intellectual attempts they sent a line
flying into the rigging of the bark
Parts of the fore and main masts had
already been snapped off by the rolling
of the vessel and it was clear that IN
less the men were taken off quickly
she would go to pieces and carry all
hands down with her
The imperiled crew quickly fastened
the lifeline to it and the breeches buoy
was hauled on board. At first the men
were hauled ashore one by one but az
the vessel was wrenched by the pound
ing seas. they entered the buoy two
at a time and were dragged through
the surf TO safety. Ambulances from
the port hospital at Fort Hancock were
waiting on the beach I'm front of the
proving grounds. and the crew were
given prompt attention. All were ex-
hausted and nearly unconscious from
exposure.
Superintendent Patterson declared
that had there been another man on
board he must have gone down with
the bark. 1t was four and a half hours
after the vessel struck on the beach
before all were saved
The Sandy Hook life-sayers declare
that this is the worst storm they have
experienced for many years.
