PASSENGERS LANDED
FROM STRANDED SHIP
Steamer Northland Gets in Trouble
Because of Heavy Fog
Off Shore.

NEW LONDON, Conn, June 5.-The
passengers from the Eastern Line steam
er Northland, bound from New York for
Portland, Me-, which went ashore on
Bartlett reef late last night. were safely
landed in this city at o'clock this morn
ing and a half hour later started for
Boston and Portland on a special train.
The captain and crew of the Northland
remained aboard their ship. which is in
no immediate danger, as the weather
today is fair.
The passengers. seventy-fve in num-
her were brought to port by the wreck
ing tug Tasco, which had been sum-
moned by wireless to the aid of the
stranded steamer. The passengers were
in a happy frame of mind when they
found themselves safely ashore. While
on the stranded Northland, they said,
and with the Empress of Ireland disas-
ter so fresh in mind, they were in con
slant fear that another storm would
come up and endanser their lives.
Goes Ashore Under Fog.
The Northland grounded on Bartlett
reef, ten miles southwest of here, about
u o'clock last night. There was heavy
fog over Long Island sound and, accord
ing to members of the crew of the tug
Tasco, the Northland for this reason got
too close to shore. There was little alarm
among passengers. especially after they
learned wireless signals for help had
been answered and a rescue boat was
on the way.
When the Tasco reached the scene il
was decided to transfer the passengers
as it had been found that the Northiand
was damaged about the bows and tha,
her forehold was making water.
Unsuccessful Effort to Float Vessel.
An attempt to haul off the Northland
was made at high tide this morning by
three tugs, but the steamer remained
hard and fast on the reef. Arrangements
were made to lighter the cargo during
the day and at high tide in the early
evening another effort to float the vesse
will be made. 1t is believed here the
grounding of the Northland was due te
the captain mistakeing In the fog the
Bartlett's Reef light for that on Gull Is
land.
The Northland is a steel screw steam
er built in 1910 at Wilmington for the
Eastern Steamship Company, and com
manded by Capt. Alfred Johnson. She il

lic-s spirited citizens came forward with
money to furnish additional rooms and
beds for emergency cases, and the

In 1856 bonds to the amount of $4,000
were issued. and the building at 521 18th
street was purchased for the use of the
institution. the government appropriating
$1,000 for the payment of the balance
of the purchase price, but even these
quarters soon became inadequate for the
needs of the hospital. and the question
of erecting a building designed espe-
cially for the use of the hospital was
discussed. Through the efforts of mem
bers of the board an appropriation OF
$40. 900 was secured from Congress in
1880 for the erection of a new building
at the corner of 18th street and Ohio
avenue, to which was added $4,000
realized from the sale of the building on
18th street. After many delays the new
building was occupied by the hospital In
the early part of 1892, and March "A an

About the same time the sum of $3.50

NO TRANSFER ORDER
BEFORE VALUATION
Probable Course of Utilities Com
mission on Matter Affecting
Street Railways.

Although effort was made today by the
executive committee Of the citizens con-
ference on public utilities to reopen the
universal transfer question. the public
utilities commission, 1t is learned, prob
ably will not take action in the matter
until 1t has made a valuation OF the
properties of the local street railway
companies.
The commissions attitude is expected
to be set forth fully in the reply which
it will make to a communication received
from the citizens conference committee.
That body, at a meeting last night, drew
up resolutions requesting that the COM
mission indicate to us whether it is
your intention to exercise the authority
vested in you by Congress and compel
the issuance and acceptance of free re-
ciprocal transfers by the street railway
companies operating in this city, or ii
we are to understand that your long ST.
lence on the subject is to be construed
as an abandonment of the peoples in
terest in the matter Of free and recipro-
cal transfers
Powers of the Board.
Officials of the utilities board today
stated that there is no existing law for
universal transfers which the commission
can enforce. While it has general au-
thority to issue such an order. just as it
has power to regulate rates, the ques-
ton of universal transfers is so essential
ly a rate question that the commission
will, in all probability, defer. considera-
ton of 1t until the physical worth of the
properties of the companies has been de-
termined.
The contention of the citizens confer
ence leaders is that the commission
should issue an order putting into effect
provisions of the acts of Congress OF 1884
and 1885 which, it is claimed. specifically
provide for the issuance and acceptance
of transfers by the street railways OF the
District of Columbia from the lines of one
company to those of another.
The committee which addressed the
communication to the utilities board on
the subject is composed of Charles w.

tary; H ]. Clark and P. ]. Ryan.

DISCUSSES CONDITIONS
IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES
Shows Business Stagnation Exists in
Many Nations-Explains Ex-
ports and Imports.

RALEIGH. n. c., June 5.-Secretary
of Commerce Redfield, in speech here
before the chamber of commerce yes
terday, discussed business conditions
throughout the country. In part, he
said. referring to President Wilson s
recent use Of the term psychological
condition:
'One does not mean to deride a de-
pressed state of mind in speaking Of 1t
as q psychological condition. The peo-
ple that feel that way feel just as badly
about 1t as II the condition were physical
in the fact that the realities Of the physi-
ere long that the mental state will adjust
itself to them and be relieved"
After citing reports Of depression in
various foreign countries. Mr.. Redfeld
continued:
the worldwide conditions which have
been suggested. This is not an age in
which the nations are separated. Their
commercial and Industrial alliances on
the one hand and competitions on the
other are close. That which affects one
adversely is reflected upon the others.
1t il the merest childishness to select
one of them out from the others and
deal with it as if its own internal pro-
cedure were the sole cause of the con-
ditfons found in it.
Depression Abroad.
I'm like manner any argument to the
effect that the alleged attitude of our
government toward big business is
the cause Of such depression as exists
here is met by the fact that in Ger
many. where trusts and cartels are
legalized and the government assists
both, the depression is even more Sc
we're than it has been here
ANY world-w view, therefore, of
the great intricate mass of inter
locked transactions which we call the
worlds business finds it in a state of
depression almost everywhere, with
ocean freights SO low because Of the
shortage of international traffic on the
sea that shipowners are beginning to
consider whether 1t is not cheaper to
lay their vessels up than to run them
at material loss.
"A good deal has been made of the
fact that our foreign business during
the exports of about thirty-seven mil
lions of dollars and an increase in the
imports of about twenty-seven and a
half millions of dollars, and that the
merchandise transactions for that
month show an apparent balance
against us somewhat in excess Of
eleven millions of dollars. and gleeful
conclusions as to the effects Of the
tariff law are drawn by high-speed
thinkers from rather meager data.
Looking at Facts.
Looking plainly at the facts, we
find them to be as follows:
During April the increase Of imports.
which We have seen amounted to about
twenty-seven and half million dollars,
is found to be in the following items:
