Taugier, July ia story Of piracy
that hea'kens back 10 the days OF Com.
modore Stephen Decatur is being told
here by the surviving members Of the
crew Of the Spanish ship Esperanzs,
which returned here today.
The Espersuza, with q crew OF II
Spanish sailors, left Tsugier recently for
ElpeEof, carrying $50 Moors ss pas

When far out ct SEES the Moors mutt

ed to land them st Melills, where they
wanted to join forces with the rebel army
that is making war on the Sultan.
The Moors were armed with their long
knives and fought with d'sperate
cOursge. The Spanish sailors, armed
with cutlasses aud REVIEWERS, were peO'
ned in the after part OF the ship, from
which they fired with deadly accuracy
aud then charged with their drawn
swords, killing four of the Moors and
seriously wounding nine Of them.
Bot the force of numbers wsU toe
great for the handful OF Spanish ssilorsi
and when their revolvers were empty,
the Moore rushed them, seizing then
before they could reload. Then they
tried some execution with their swords

As soon as all the Spauisrds had beer

The men bers OF the crew who wer'

Though short handed, the Spanish

The piracy has been reported 10 th'

as the pirates have Joined the rebel army
there ia little chance that they can b

many Of the wounded have died of thei

Opening of Tunnels.

New York, July l9.-MiSs New
Jersey was welded to old Father Knick-
erbocker at 10 o'clock this morning, and
the tunnel wizard, William McAdoo,
who slipped on the ring of steel tubing,
admits that he had rather build such a
tunnel than be mayor Of New York.
At 10 O'Clock sharp, at Signal from
Miss Harriet Floyd MeAdoo, daughter
of the tunnels creator, the first train.
Began its trip under the Hudson river
from New York to New Jersey, and the
hope of years, "lhree minutes from
Jersey to New York" was fulfilled. At
the same instant, every steamboat in
the river above, blew siren blasts of well
come.
The tunnel is built 10 twins, each.
separated by 80 feet. Trains going 10
one direction use one tunnel, while trains
in the opposite direction use the other.
There are eight tracks, four in each
tube. 1t is estimated that 10 start with
100, 900, 900 persons per annnm will use
the tube, which can easily accommodate
$50, 900, 900 persons every year.
The tubes are 80 feet below the su:-
face Of the Hudeoo river, while in some
plscessthere is forty feet OF earth be-
tween the bottom of the river and the

Latham Meets With Accident.

Calais, France, July 19.-PlungiDg
into the Euglisb channel, eight miles of
the coast of France, the monoplane Of
Huber; Latham came to grief today, in
an attempt to cross the channel, IN
eompetition for the London Daily MaiPl
prize OF $25, 900.
Latham, whose flight under the cir.
cumstauces, was foOl.hsrdy and daring,
bad q narrow escape from death.
Sung by the taintS Of his friends and
the press that his 6asco In former flights
9ere doe to lack of nerve, Latham made
today's fight in the face of the most ad-
verse conditions. After falling into the
sea when bis motor failed, Latham wSs
picked up by the French torpedo boat
HarpoD, which had been sent out to
rescue him.
His mouoplane WAS towed ashore, and
Latham says he will repair it and make
the fight sgain.
1t was believed that owing to the un-
favorable condition of the weather, La
than could make no fight today, and
none OF the torpedo or motor bosts
which we're to patrol the course, we're 10
their stations. At $40 this morning,
the wind sbsied slightly. Though 1t
was still too high to attempt the fight.
Impatient st the repeated delays, La
than resolved to make the fight AID
left without sufficiently overhsuling bis
motor, neglectIng, even to notify the
molor and torpedo boats TO patrol the
course of the flight, The torpedo boat
Harpon and the tug Oalssiau, heard Of
the fight, after Latham had put to Ses,
and they Immediately started 10 pursuit.,
reaching Latham after he bad fallen into
the water from height OF $50 feet. His
monoplaue was sustaining him In the
walsr, bnt it is said 1t was rapidly be-
ginning to sink.
Latham was impatient to be of aud at
GAO o'clock he took his place 10 the
aeroplane and gave the signal for the
start.
Like a bird the big plane rose into
the air, and on a course straight as an
arrow, shot with terrible speed over the
channel. In few minutes, the airship
was out oil the sight of the big crowd
that had gathered to see the start. As
lar as he could be seen fIo.a Calais, the
serobsut seemed to have pDiect control
of the machine.
Eight miles from the coast the tor
pedo BOAT destroyer found the seroplsue
floating on the surface of the water,
With Latham clirging to the frame
work. The seronsut was taken aboard
the warship and carried back to Calais.
The monoplane was taken back to
Calais by the tugs.
The sirship was shooting through the
air al a height of $50 feet when the
accident occurred. 1t glided gently
down until within a short distance OF
the surface, and then Owed straight for
the water. 1t Was practically uniDjuTed
by the fsll, and rightiug itself it Aosted
safely, with Latham cliDging to the the
frame. The cause OF the accident has
not yet been fully explained. Ia some
manner, Latham lost control of the air
ship and WAS unabls to keep it on its
course.
After Lsthom donned dry clothing,
aud eaten a hearty breakfast he told
his story Of the fight. "The failure Of
the airship to successfully negotiate the
entire distance across the channel" he
said was due 10 the failure of my en-
Pine.n
