New York, March l4.-Life savers
from both the Blue Point and the Lone
Hill, L. l., stations today are keeping

evening on the outer shoal between the

thick fog and heavy seas it Ia probable
that If she does break up many of her
crew will be lost.
This morning, after having made
several Intellectual attempts to launch
life boats, the life savers succeeded in
shooting q line across the stranded
steamers bow. They sent man in O
breeches buoy who brought back word
from Captain Mcneil aud his crew Of

and try to work her of the bar. The
waves we're sweeping clear across the
ship.
At dawn, today, the ship was yet vlsi'

Chaos and confusion reigned ia Wall

mendous tumble in all stocks. Cable
dispatches showed that similar condi'
lions prevailed on foreign exchanges.

wide, though the cause of the trouble
was a mystery TO all. There was gen.
eral rush in New York to sell at any price
There has been a decline Of 81, 6OO,-

prices of last year. There vas final

be sitting on their gold chests awaiting

Two outbreaks of rather formidable
proportions in connection with the

driver blocking Second street car with
his cab and then attempting to tear OIL

ears were provided for the protection
OF motofmen. 90.
The cab driver was arrested and three
policemen started to walk him TO the
Central Police Station, at the City Hall,
block away. A thousand persons at
tempted to release the prisoner. Heavy
endorsements of policeman prevented
this, but the crowd was not dispersed
until a score OF arrests we're made. No
one was seriously hurt.
The second outbreak occurred at
Seventh and Main streets, where car
load OF strikebraakers, arriving from st.
Louis, were transferring to suburban
express car. The strikebreakers were
protected by policemen during the trans
fer, but the minute the 81. Louis men
were aboard the express car a volley o.
missiles crashed into it, several inside
being slightly hurt. A large number o.
arrests we're made before the assailant'
we're dispersed.
Several other ARRAYS occurred during
