New York, Nov. 1S.="Out of a COM
paratively soomth sea without warn

He barely escaped being carried into
the sea-
This is the tale told today by Off
GERS of the steamer Estonia, just in
from Copenhagen. The hurricane
struck the ship on November and
reached such velocity that the iron
stanchions holding the weather cloth
on the bridge were bent. Gigantic
waves broke over the entire vessel, one
wave flooding the captains room.
After blowing for six hours the wind
dropped as suddenly as it came.

him for $4,000 for the alienation Of
Mrs. Schroter's affections.
That suit was Withdrawn in May,

WOMAN is NABBED ;
FOR THEFT or RING
Mrs. Ida Smith Says Man
Gave 1t to Her.

Accused Of the theft of a $3.50 dia-
mond ring, which she declares was loan
ed to her. Mrs. Ida Smith, forty years
old, of SS1 Eleventh street northwest,
was arrested by Detectives o'Dea and
Evans yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Smith
is being held at the First precinct sta
ton on charge Of grand larceny.
If the story told by the prisoner Is
true, the diamond ring plays the same
role that other rings of its species have
enacted In love affairs, which have sub
sequently terminated in the arrest Of
the affinity upon whom such gifts were
bestowed. Mrs. Smith declares she met
the man who gave her the ring gObout a
month ago. His name Is David II,
Moran, the police say, and he lives at
GSg F street northwest.
We became very good friends" the
woman declared. "and he took the ring
in question from his finger and placed
it on mine. That was all there was
said about the gift until we quarreled.
Moran told the police he did not give
the woman the ring, but that she took
1t from his finger and refused to return
1t. When the detectives arrested Mrs.
Smith she willingly gave them the ring
and told them her story.
