Annual Count at Mint Finds
Every Dime on Hand.

Washington, July 3O.-The annual
counting and weighing of the gold and
silver in the Philadelphia, Denver and
San Francisco minis and the New York
Assay Office have just been completed,
Director Of the Mint Woolley reported
to-day. Not a dime is missing.
During the counting great precau-
tions were taken and the normal work
of the minis and assay Office was. not
allowed to proceed, for this might have
afforded opportunity to falsify the
count.

The overcrowding of the upper decks
with passengers, the presence OF added
weight Of lifeboats and the fact that
too much Of the water ballast, which
the steamer carried in her hold, had
been withdrawn were responsible,
steamship men in this city believed
last night. for the capsizing of the
Eastland Mt Chicago.
The metacentre of the vessel, ex-
perts declared, by the tightening OF the
ballast, was brought to point too
high above the keel. The added
weight above caused the steamer TO
list heavily as soon as it was swung
from a vertical position, and it was a
we'll known problem in hydrostatics,
they stated, that the further from the
keel the metacentre is the less rapidly
does vessel tend TO recover her equi-
librium.
According TO the scientific definition,
a metacentre is that point in float
ing body displaced from equilibrium
through which the resultant upward
pressure Of the fluid in which il is i'm
mersed always passes. II the meta
centre is well below the ships centre
of gravity the vessel is stable. When
it approaches the centre of gravity as
the vessel lists or the ballast IS re-
moved il becomes "tipsy." When the
metacentre falls at a spot above the
centre Of gravity, as was undoubtedly
the case yesterday with the Eastland

SPEEDY MINNOW
SINKS; THREE SAVED
Power Boat Goes Down as EX-
citing Prelude to Larchmont
Yacht Club Races.

An exciting prelude to the Lsrchmonr
Yacht Club races yesterday was the
sinking Of william Earl Dodge's high
speed motor boat Minnow, near the
starting line.
The boat came from City Island early
in the morning, and hal been travel
ling at about forty miles an hour oil
Larchmont for some time, when sud
denly her bow went up in the air and
she sank stern first in about thirty
feet of water
There were tnree meL aboard Will
lam +. Dodge, the owner, who was
steering the boat: a friend % his and
a mechanician. All three wore life pre-
servers, so they hoated clear when the
Minnow sank They were taken aboard
the motor boat Flora by Harry Smith
and Edward Leigh, Of the Whitestone
Yacht Club. From the Flora they were
put aboard the power yacht Alacrity
in Larchmont Harbor.
Mr.. Dodge said that while the boat
was running, soon after noon, the en-
gineer lifted the engine hatch and sa"
the water pouring in so fast through
hole in the bottom that it was evident
she could not be kept afoat.
The Minnow was to have been en-
tered in the races for the Gold Char
lenge Cup, which begin August II in
Manhasset Bay. She is 26 feet long
and has two 90 horsepower Simplex
engines which, it is said drive her
more than forty miles an hour. Wreck
ers say she can be raised easily.

EaStland Co. Protested
New Law, Says Redfield
IN Telcgraph 70 The Tnbune. ]

Syracuse, July "a Secretary Of
Commerce William c. Redfeld, who is
visiting his daughter here, has ordered
a sweeping investigation into the East
land disaster. He sent the following
telegram TO Deputy Supervising In
Spector General Hoover. of the steam
boat service, at Chicago:
Leave nothing undone as to cause of
sad disaster to steamer Eastland and
fix responsibility for same. Inquire
strictly and fearlessly whether any off,
cial neglect or incompetency. None is
now assumed. but none can be par
doned. You will be given on call any
needed help from Washington. Go to
bottom of matter" REDFIELD.
To a Tribune correspondent Sec
rotary Redfeld said that Assistant Sec
rotary Of Commerce +. F. Sweet would
arrive here on Sunday with records Of
the Eastlsnd Mr.. Redfeld said:
81 am most anxious to place the
responsibility. There seems to be no
responsible cause. The Eastland, under
the law, was allowed to carry $500 pas
sengers, and the accounts | have read
do not say there were more than that
number on board"
at is n strange coincidence" he con-
tinued. that the owner of that vessel
sent me the only written protest re-
ceiyed regarding the operation of the
seaman's act, claiming that it would
reduce its carrying capacity. ! replied
saying that if the effect of the sea-
mans act was TO reduce its capacity
from $500 to $50 | thought it in
accord with the public safety and good
public policy

Chicago River Disaster Thought To Be Due to Over
Crowding and Added Weight of Lifeboats,
Displacing the Ships Metacentre.

when the steamer went over TO one side
before she actually capslzed, the
chances of its recovering equilibrium
because of its own buoyancy are slight.
To keep the metacCntre in It's proper
place, builders of yachts weight the
keels heavily In steamships n certain
amount Of ballast is necessary to keep
it below the centre of gravity. The
weight of engines, coal and cargo also
helps.
Captain George T. Charlton, of the
United States Steam Vessel Inspection
Service, said last night at his home at
Port Washington, Long Island, that in
asmuch as he had not been able TO
learn exactly how the accident TO the
Eastland took place. he could not say
whether such fate might overtake any
of the numerous excursion steamers
plying the waters about New York
The weight of the added lifeboats,
called for by the La Toilette law, he
said, would not, in his opinion, be
great enough 10 effect the stability Of
a steamer A rigid inspection of all the
steamboats, entering this port, he de-
clared, was held once n month. Ade-
quate provision Of lifebelts that were
kept in perfect condition for each pas
scnger were maintained, he added,
while in the summer season the law
calling for lifeboats to accommodate 10
per cent Of the vessels carrying capa
city was enforced. After the first Of
October, he said all steamboats, will be
required TO carry lifeboats with room
for all passengers.

CITY PRUDENTLY
PREPARES FOR SNOW
Contracts Submitted by Fether
stOn Will Cut Cost of Re-
mOval Next Winter.

1t is a refreshing incident in the I'M
ceasing toll of the city fathers during
the warm weather that Commissioner
Fetherston Of the Department of Street
Cleaning should offer recommendations
for snow ell, oval at this time. In his
report, which he submitted yesterday
for approval by the Board Of Estimate,
the Commissioner recommends bids for
contract snow removal next winter
which show saving OF about Is per
cent in Manhattan and 20 per cent in
The Bronx. as compared with last win
ter's cost.
The Commissioner adds the following
cool weather remarks:
From the standpoint of the average
citizen, one of the most pleasing
features of the new method of snow
fighting is te rapidity with which it
gets into action. This was brought out
strongly at the time of the eight-inch
snowfall in March and the ten-inch fall
in April OF this year"

Of the tragedy to-day.
In these letters Mr.. Hill took the po-
stion that the existing law was suili-
cicnt. and cited the equipment of the
Eastland to support his argument. Sec
rotary Redfeld in reply wrote TO Mr..
Hill that in his opinion the provisions
Of the seamen's law would have
required an increase of crew on the
Eastland to act In case Of an emer-
Cency. as we'll as more life RATS and
other safeguards.
On the other hand. it has been ar
gued by steamboat men that the weight
Of RATS. boats, etc. required by. the

disaster as that in Chicago.

correct angle. Scientific deduction and
careful reasoning is the only way 20
work on such case"
Weeks Of careful deduction and sci

results. Mr.. Hickson has found the
ripper.
This was the startling statement he
made public yesterday afternoon. The
chain of circumstances which he has
linked up point at One Man. and the
only thing lacking to make he proc (
