Hotel Chaperons the Latest.

NEW YORK, December 14.-Hotel
chaperons is the latest idea in New ork.
1t is said that there are many young
women who would like to visit the city,
but are unable to do so alone. At least
one big hotel has decided to furnish
chaperons to women who come to New
York alone or to women who come here
with their husbands, who are too busy to
take care of them. The women SO en-
ployed will not only be chaperons, but
will be competent guides to the shopping

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 14.-The Ameri-
can bark Edmund Phinney went ashore
off Sandy Hook in storm this morning.
The lifesavers sighted her about
O'Clock flying her flag. union down, in the
mizzen rigging
The crew of lifesaving station No. ,. at
Spermacetti Cove, started up the beach at
10 o'clock to lend assistance with the
beach apparatus in case the men from
Sandy Hook station should fail to reach
the vessel.
1t was blowing a gale from the north
east with rain, high sea and surf.
The Edmund Phinney is a bark of 656
tons register. Her captains name is An
derson.
Men Seen From Shore.
The Hfesavers made several unsuccess-
full attempts to shoot the life line to the
bark, but owing to the gale the Lyle
gun would not throw the line as far as
the wrecked vessel. Two tugs tried to
reach the bark, but failed and the life
savers then tried to reach the vessel in
their power lifeboat.
Ten or twelve men were in the rigging
of the Phinney watching the efforts of
the life-savers.
The task of saving the lives of the crew
OF the Phinney was extremely hazardous,
owing to the binding snowstorm and ter
rife seas which were breaking on the
beach. 1t was impossible for the life
savers to launch boat through such a
sea, and they prepared at once to shoot a
lifeline over the bark and bring the crew
ashore in breecheS buoy. As the bark
lay only about 100 feet from the beach,
there was good chance of saving the
sailors in that way.
Tug Driven to Shelter.
Again a wrecking tug towing a lifeboat
was compelled by the heavy seas to turn
back before reaching the scene of the
wreck. The two craft returned to the
shelter of the Hook. The wind was then
blowing sixty miles an hour, and the
snow had turned to rain.
May Save the Crew.
The Merritt-Chapman wrecking crew
went ashore when it was found that their
tug could not reach the Phinney. They
volunteered to assist the life savers and
their offer was accepted. Shortly before
9 o'clock line was sent out and reached
the Phinney, and it was hoped then that
all of the crew would be rescued. The
bark is breaking up very fast. The life
savers are now bringing the crew of the
Phinney ashore in the breeches buoy.
A three -maSted schooner previously re-
ported ashore is still in deep water at
anchor. So long as her anchors hold she
is safe. Her name cannot De made out
from shore.
