Knew Anything About It.

Special Dispatch 10 The Star.
NEW YORK, November 4.-The big
White Star liner Adriatic ran herself into
a mud bank at the entrance of Ambrose
channel. as she was feeling her way into
the harbor early this morning, and there
she stuck for five hours. while tugs
churned and yanked al her. The Adri-
attic went aground a little before O'Clock.
when it was pitch dark. with thick
mist adding its uncertainty to the looks
of things.
She slid up on the mud OH a failing tide.
and that meant that she probably could
not get off until the next flood, which
would have been at noon. but somehow
the frothing and pulling of the attendant
fleet Of tugs did some good. because at
S:O2 O'Clock there was a give and swirl
Of water behind her, and she slid OF into
deep water.
Most of the passengers were asleep
when the vessel struck. and she went
ashore so gently that few of them even
knew that anything was wrong.

HORRIBLE DEATH

Portland, Maine, July 6.-Mistak-

vers by the crowd below as agreed
upon for cutting loose his parachute,
James Corcoran, an aeronaut 22 years
old of Lowell. Mass, cut loose when
about 500 feet from the earth at the
Fourth of July celebration here and
was dashed to the ground, meeting al
most instant death in the presence OF
5000 spectators.
Corcoran was employed by Profess
sor Joseph Leroux of this city, with
whom the municipal authorities con-
tracted for balloon ascensions and
parachute jumps today at the Eastern
promenade. 1t was arranged that
Corcoran should drop with his para
chute from height of 5000 feet when
he heard a certain number of revolver
shots from Leroux on the ground.
When Corcoran cut loose the dis
tance was too short for the parachute
to open properly and the man dropped
striking the ground about 1000 fee,
from where the ascension was made.
He was still alive when picked up,
but his skull was fractured and he
soon died.
