New York, July 9.The Munson
liner Callao, bound from Rio de ia
neiro to New York with sixty passen-
gers on board. Is safe and heading
stead ly though slowly toward the
Narrows. The silence OF the ship
since she left the BRAZILIAN port gave
rise to fears for her safety and un
founded rumors OF pirate raider.
Apprehension concerning the ship
was dispelled yesterday when John
French, superintendent OF South
American trade OF the MuHson line,
announced that wireless, dated
Wednesday, and forwarded va Ber-
muda, had been received from the
ship. In It Capt. p. w. Sheridan an
nounced that he expected to reach
New York Monday night, several days
behind schedule that conditions were
satisfactory on board, and that his
position at noon, Wednesday, was
22.49 degrees north 5S2S degrees
west This is four or five hundred
miles east and somewhat to the north
OF Porto Rico.
Mr.. French sad he tbught the
ships silence may have lien due to
some minor trouble with the radio ap-
paratus.

Last year the public was forbidden
to trepass on the Everett estate simp-
ly because OF the nuisances commit
ted. THIS year Mr.. Colgate gives
notice that he will post his lands and
hire watchmen to keep off all persons
unless abuses are stopped
Mr.. Colgate has always left his
ground open to the public. People
have been welcome to pick berries,
hunt hike and picnic on his property
but during the past year or two the
number OF abuses has grown rapidly
This year berry picking parties have
wantonly broken down fences, de-
stroyed shrubbery, pulled up plants
and done other damage Hikers or
others on the mountain have broken
into the Colgate cottage and defaced
and damaged where they did not de-
stroj.
On the Everett property last fall,
9nnters supposedly. broke down valu'
able fruit trees, destroyed fences,
stole fruit and did other damage
As a result the Everett property was
posted forbidding trespass.
Mr.. Colgate states that he regrets

will do so unless those who go there
refrain from damage and abuse to
property. lie desires to preserve the

his estate.
II seems too bad that the entire
public should suffer for the wanton
disregard OF courtesy and decency by
q few but there seems no other way
