got out, Watts had contract which
would give the firm 20 cents a ton on the
selling rights OF the Primrose Colliery,
owned by the Westons, and the contract
was to run from 1880 to 1901 When Watts
sued the westons IN 1885 for breach OF
contract he was represented by Mr..
Choate's firm.

because the actual damages could not
be proved Watts alleged that Mr.. Choate
failed TO start a new action, as directed
by the court. other attorneys brought
the second action in 1885. but Judge Wal

Disaster at Seabright Laid
to Lack of Lifesaving
Equipment.
CAPTAIN AND HIS WIFE
AMONG THOSE LOST
Sailor Who Chung TO Rigging OF
Schooner Saved After
Battle with Waves.
rrrom The Tribune Correspondent


Long Branch. y. j.. April 16.-Lifesav-
ers are patrolling the beach tonight on
tho lookout for the bodies OF Captain j.
II. Hardy. his wife and the six members
Of tho crew who were lost from the lurn-
hcr laden schooner Charles X. Buckley
which went ashore between here and Sea-
bright last night.
In Monmouth Memorial Hospital is Emil
Nartinson. the sole survivor of the wreck.
He owes his life 10 the fact that he
mad the physical strength TO stick In the
rigging until powerful searchlishts on
shore sought him out and line was shot
70 him. II is the belief here tonight that
a better equipped revenue cutter service
- New York could have prevented any
oss Of life at all in the disaster. The
blight Of the schooner was known IN time
or fast boat TO get here.
Martinson is expected 10 recover. He
VAS unconscious most Of the night tol-
owing his terrific battle with the waves

ln~ lumber that buffeted him as he was
irawn 10 shore after catching the lifeline
and winding Il around his waist.
". has been unable TO give any coherent
statement Of the events that happened
after the Buckley struck. He recalls the
captains effort 10 save his wife. Deciding
10 stay with his ship, the commander
ordered the mate 10 lower a boat ana
take Mrs Hardy ashore. Three sailors
were putting the yawl over the side when
they were carried away by a roller.
Those on board then took TO the rig-
cling. Martinson saw Captain Haroy
lump for one Of the lines, miss and Jam
against the side Of the schooner. he
heard the captain say. MY leg is gone
After that he saw no one except the COOK,
who was hanging head down in the rig
ring and apparently was drowned.
The schooner will never float again
The seas have driven her fast into the
Jersey sand and she is total loss. Her
cargo. or most OF II. IS floating near by
and much yellow pine is washing ashore.
The owners. F. L. and A. Heidritter. OF
Elizabeth. ". j., are having 1t piled az
fast as II drives up on the beach. The
Buckley was built in Mnbridge. Me. Her
-aptain came from Belle Island. Me.
Regarding the charge that the eight
lives lost on the schooner Charles X
Buckley might have been saved II the
-evenue cutter service here were better
squipped. Captain John F. Wild said yes
erday that all ne could do was sit with
'olded hands and let them drown.
Il am often confronted with such erner-
rcncies, but am powerless. For long
lime I have been striving to get adequate
cutter service for New York, but Wash
ngton is doing nothing. so far as l can
see. have only three seagoing cutters

width less than 10 feet inches. An oms-
sion Of pudding had been due TO a scar
city of water and an absence OF rain, ne
said

that some Of the gravel used had como
out of the Lexington avenue subway lie
also denied that in his discussion with
Thomas Smith, the Coram farmer, he had
referred to the ring at Albany. He
stated that what he said was that MS
Supporters" at Albany were not likely TO
whip him like a schoolboy.
Another of the defendants, John Huber.
engineer for the Suffolk Contracting Com

worry was that the road might not hold
together long enough to let him get out
Of town" Under cross-examinatfon HUI

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, Apr. Z, 1914.
The Connecticut valley has seldom
experienced a more backward season
than the present has been up to date.
Only few growers have planted seed
beds FOR the sufficient reason that moist
ground freezes solidly almost every
night. Those who have sown seed have
done so in we'll protected beds The
starting of the beds is not matter of
urgency except in the case of the
shaded tobacco growers who will begin
transplanting early next month. The
late season may even prove to be a
blessing in disguise, as experience has
shown that tobacco growers suffer
more inconvenience through plants be-
coming too large to transplant than
through inability to procure plants. Of
sufficient size.
