NEW YORK, May 26.-To pre-
clude the possibility OF such accidents
as that which happened to the Metro
politan line steamship H. M. Whitney
which has been aground at Flood
Rock at He'll Gate, the dangerous
Long Island Sound entrance to the
port OF New York late Sunday, the
engineer corps of the United States
army will begin early in June the
work of deepening the channel at
that point. Tie work must be COM
pleted in two years.
The rock which broke the back of
the Whitney is the principal menace
to navigation, 1t is only Is feet under
water, When the engineers get
through with it it will have been
blown away to an average depth of
26 feet,-a sufficient depth to accom-
modate any vessel that may desire to
make the passage. The work now to
be attempted is the most important in
this vicinity since the original blow
ing up of He'll Gate two decades back
Congress has appropriated $250,000
for it.

bay en- route to the Fort Stevens
dock to pick up her rock barges for
the usual up-river trip to the quar-

with fishing boat that was beating
down to the fishing grounds, cutting
il clear in two and throwing its occu-
pants into the tide.

NEW YORK, May 26.-Baron
Speck Won Sternburg, the German
Ambassador to the United States, has
an article in the forthcoming outlook
giving an official German view OF the
Macedonian situation. The ambas-
sador speaks with full personal as
well as official information, as he was
Germany's agent at Belgrade for
sone time and made study there
and in Macedonia OF existing condi-
tons. He says
Owing to the fact that the Ameri-
can press took much interest in a
statement | recently made regarding
Germany's policy in Macedonia, and,
further, that | have received various
letters from interested parties asking
me to give these statements wider
view, and owing to the fact that from
news circulated by a portion of the
European press it appears that doubts
are still arising among some powers
with regard to Germany's attitude to
the Balkan questions, a question
which at the present moment is of
such general interest, permit me to
give the following particulars.
From general point of view, Ger
many holds the opinion that the main
tenance of the status quo is in the
interest of all the powers, Germany
agrees with the whole civilized world
that the unbearable state of affairs in
Macedonia urgently calls for rem
edy, and that steps must be taken to
put a stop to the continuous blood
shed, murder, and outrages there.
"But Germany is convinced that all
measures bearing upon this subject
will only have a possibility of sue
cess if they receive the firm support
Of all the powers, acting in absolute
harmony with each other.
Germany is ready to consider SER
iously and favorably any suitable pro-
posal from whatever side it may
come, by which the present state of
affairs in Macedonia can be remedied,
and is prepared to give her full COM
sent hereto, provided that it meets
the consent of the other powers
"The question, what measure are
most suitable? is a matter of discus
sion. At the first glance it seems
doubtful to the German Government
if larger or smaller increase of the
police force would give the desired
result, but she is far from rejecting
this idea abinitio as unfeasible. Ger
many regards with some skepticism,
however, the idea of placing the COM
mand of the Turkish troops in the
hands of Christion officers, even if
this is done by allowing European
officers to direct the movement of the
troops without their being actually
in command of such troops when
actually operating.
I'm any case, it holds the opinion
that the task of celebrating practical
measures destined to change or at
least to ameliorate the state Of af-

story of the sad occurrance as told
by Captain Hobson and confirmed By
Captain Jordan, is as follows:
The Kearn was running free on the
last of the ebb tide and making for
the Fort docks TO take over the
barges which she was to take up the
river to the quarries for today's ton
mage of rock for the jetty. She was
making good time, as usual; the boat
was sighted under sail and beating

tack; the pilot Of the Kearn noted her
as being in his path and shifted his
wheel to starboard, blowing two short
