ESCAPE OF THE SILVER STAR
Deck Leaks and She Almost Sinks
in Occouuan Bay.

The river schooner Silver Star, which
arrived here early this week with a cargo
of pine wood aboard, had a narrow es-
cape from sinking on her recent trip
to this city from Occoquan The vessel
was loaded deep and half gale was blow
ing when she came out of Occuquan creek
and started across Occoquan bay on her
way to the main channel. The seas were
washing on her decks. but nothing was
thought CT that. the decks were
thought to be watertight
The master of the vessel had his atten-
ton fixed upon the sails of the vessel
and upon the sailing marks as he came
out of the creek. but he noticed that
the vessel was moving sluggishly as if
full of water. and when he went to look
the water was deep on the cabin floor
and coming in fast Throwing the tiller
over he started to change the course
of the vessel so as to run her ashore, and
as he did so she fell down on one side
and for several minutes it looked as if
she would capsize.
She slowly righted. however. and the
pumps We're started. 1t was found that
they would keep her free. and after she
was pumped dry an investigation was
made and it was found that she was
leaking through a wide open seam IN her
deck This was closed and the schooner
resumed her trip to this city.

HOUSEBOAT MOVED.
Games of Chance Didn't Prove Prof
liable Off Fort Foote

The big houseboat belonging to Charles
Heath and others. which has been lying in
the river below Alexandria for the past
two or three months. was yesterday towed
up to this city by the tug James o. Car
ter and has gone into winter quarters on
the Eastern branch. 1t Is stated that the
games of chance run upon the craft dur
ing the past several months were not a
financial success TO the owners of the
boat and operators of the games, so they
have been given up until times are more
propitious.
The ark has been lying abreast of Fort
Foote on the Virginia side OF the river.
and those who wished to try their luck
with the various games operated on the
boat journeyed by rail from this city to
New Alexandra. where they embarked
on a power launch or small tug, TO be
transported to the houseboat.
For some reason the visitors were not
so numerous as they were when the boat
lay of Alexandria, and 1t is stated the
Virginia authorities were inconsiderate
enough to threaten a raid If the games
were not closed.

Gen. Miles Camp Not Connected
With BRYAN Movement

The members of Gen. Nelson \. Miles

Grams, at its last meeting adopted a reso-
luton regulating any connection official

said the resolution was aimed at the
movement to bonn an organization TO
support William J. Bryan for the presi-
dency.
One of the organizers of the Bryan
League of Spanish War Soldiers and Sail
ors said today when informed of the
action of Miles Camp:
Our movement has no direct connection
with the organization known as the
United Spanish War Veterans. There
were nearly half a million soldiers and
sailors in the war with Spain. Only
about 65 900 of this number are members
of the L. S. w. V. Many of them favor

BABooN GOES TO COUNTRY.
Owner Takes Vicious Animal Away
Mysteriously

The baboon which made a vicious at
tack on Miller Medley, a colored hostler.
in q livery stable at 1724 G street north
west, has been removed from the stable
to the country. Star reporter was in
formed today that the animal had been

but no additional information could be
obtained.
The employees at the place declined to
discuss the matter except to say that
the baboon had always been quiet and
inoffensive unless some one leased 1t
by poking sticks and other things at it.
The Washington Humane Society is still
investigating the case to ascertain if
the animal had been improperly treated.
1t is probable the baboon will be pre-
scented to the National Zoo in the near
future.
