New York. He sailed on the Etura this afternoon.
When the Campania reached here to-day Mr.. Morse was one of the
first passengers to leave the ship. AS he stepped ashore he was handed a
big bundle of .cablegrans. He read them fevershly, and came to a
quick decision. ra.aJ
Stepping to the other end of the landing stage he made inquiries
about the first return boat. He was told that the Etruria was about to
san. In a few minutes he had completed arrangements for passage. He
went aboard the Etruia just as she was about to cast off.
There was a narrow margin for action on the part of Mr.. Morse
between his arrival and his departure. He appeared to have made up his
mind to 60 back to New York as soon as he had read the first cable
gram he opened. This was quite lengthy. As he glanced over it his
face hardened. 1t was apparent to observers that the message was con-
sdeed by him of great importance.
The Etruria is due in New York next Saturday.
While looking after the transfer of his baggage from the Campania
to the EtuIra Mr.. Morse was questioned about his plans and affairs in
New York. He refused to discuss them in any way.
81 have nothing to say about what has happened in New York since
my departure" he said. at was my intention to 90 TO the Continent
and look after certain business matters which demand my attention. The
urgency of cable advces from New York has caused me to reverse nv
plans, and it is now my intention to get back home as quickly as DOS.

was proceeding north or Sixth avenue
and had reached the southeast corner
of Twenty-third street when the from,
axle snapped, throwing the driver to

tumbling after him and smashing on
the street, mingled together. The mix

blaze shot up which licked the under

corner. succeeded in dragging Waldorf,
who was unconscious. out of the way
OF the current OF burning acid which
was rolling toward him. Women shop.

The acid flowed along, burning every
thing 1t touched. till 1t reached the

and dripped down through cracks in

ing fumes, and several of the hundred

were not much better in the vicinity of

MORSE'S CHAM E
OF PLAN CAUSES
HERE.

The news that Charles w. Morse has
started back from Europe was received
in the financial district with surprise
to-day. The cynical denizens OF the
financial district had concluded that
Morse had skipped for good.
Because of the half holiday in bank
Ing circles there was not much action
among the Morse creditors. Before tine
banks closed at noon Deputy Shtriiffs
had visited every bank in the city not
previously covered TO serve attachments
on whatever property OF Charles w
Morse they might hold. None OF the
banks visited yielded up n Morse
assets.
Albert B.. Boardman. Mr.. Morse's
counsel. said he was gratified that the
truth of his story about the departure
Of his client on the Campania had beea
established. He refused to discuss the
Morse matter any further.
Dispatches received from Queenstown
to-day tell how Morse arrived there last
night, calling himself &C, NJ. Moore
and about as cool as the coolest nan IN
board. There were many persons on
the Campania who recognized In

a few hundred feet OF their destination
The ferryboat Brooklyn left the Bate
ry at $50 o'clock and started for At
lantlc venue. A westerly wind had
swept most OF the ice In the river to
the Brooklyn side and the big craft
had 10 plough its way through the mas
sive. %Srindi9g cakes. When within sight
OF her slip she slowly came to a stand
still and then, despite her whirling
propellers, refused to bulge.
Three tugs one after the other and
then all combined, tried to move the
BROOKLYN. but their efforts were In vain.
Several hours passed and the passen-
gers became weary OF the wait. The
ferry officials fired up the old ferryboat
Winona and sent her out Of a slip in
the hope of forcing the Ice out of the
way Of the Brooklyn. BY hard work
the Winona got to the Brooklyn but
was unable to release the latter. The
passengers, twenty Five OF whom were
women. were transferred to the Winona
and landed at 2 O'Clock.
Half an hour later the Brooklyn man
aged to get into her slip. The drivers
