Current Switched by Wire Falling
Man and Wife Arc Dead.

San Francisco, Nov. 24.-Jsaa Pu-
cheau and his wife were accidentally
electrocuted in the yard of their homo
in this city Sunday by coming in. con
tact with a live wire. The wire haA
broken during the day, falling across
the clothesline on which the family
wash was displayed. Pucheau noticed
the broken end and picked it up, the
current not having been turned on, o.
the wire fed arc lights used only at
night. Pucheau fastened the loose end
to the same tree to which the clothesline
was attached and forgot all about it.
At dark the current was switched on,
and the tree began to burn. Pucheau
started to play the hose on it, but was
warned not to do so by his neighbors.
Mrs. Pucheau, who was engaged in pre-
pairing the evening meal, suddenly re-
membered the clothes on the limo, and
determined to take them in. Before
she could be warned Of the danger she
touched the clothes wire, which was in
contact with the electric light wire,
and was instantly killed. Pucheau,
rushed to her aid and as he raised the
body his head touched the clothes wire,
and he fell dead across the body Of his
wife. The neighbors hurried to the
scene, but nothing could be done, death
having been instantaneous.

SHIPS IN COLLISION.
Five Hundred Passengers Luckily Es-
cape Watery Grave in New
York Harbor.

New York, Nov. 23.-The lives Of
moro than 500 persons were imperiled
Sunday when the fruit steamer Admira
Dewey, inward bound from Jamaica
crashed into the steamer Mount Desert
outward bound, from Bay Ridge for the
fishing bands. The Admiral Dewey
coming suddenly out Of fog, struck
the Mount Desert almost amidships
opening cash in the fishing vessel that
extended from the upper deck to the
waters edge.
There were $50 passengers, including
20 women and some children, on the
Mount Desert, and the Admiral Dewey
carried As passengers. In addition there
were the crews of the two steamers.
There was panic, and it was due
to the prompt action Of Captain David
son Of the Admiral Dewey that the
passengers did not rush over the guard
rails Of that vessel and leap for the
deck Of the Admiral Dewey.
Had the captain backed his steamer
away many Of the passengers would
have fallen into the water. Instead,
10 kept his vessel moving slowly ahead,
and this held the PROV into the rent
that had been made and afforded q
boarding place for tho frightened pass
engers from the Mount Desert.
Thus, the two steamers moved slowly
toward the east bank Of the lower bay,
while wild scramble was taking place
on the decks.
It was thought the Mount Desert
would sink, and the passengers fought
Practically to get to the deck Of the
Admiral Dewey. A number of persons
were slightly injured in the stampede.
Men and women climbed over the guard
rails to the Admiral Dewey SO rapidly
that they trampel upon one another.
In the space of Is minutes fully $50
passengers on the Mount Desert spranp
% the deck Of the other. The Admiral
Dewey drew more water than the other,
md Captain Davidson discovered that
he keel of his steamer was sticking to
he bottom. By this time nearly all the
passengers Of the Mount Desert had
'een transferred and the panic was sub
iding, so Captain Davidson signaled to
ave the engines stopped and few i
minutes later the boats drifted apart.
