Capt. Ryan and crew of nine men escaped unharmed, but lost all of their effects. . In making the harbor the captain miscalculated and struck Green’s reef at full speed. A big hole was stove in the bottom of the boat and she was soon on her beam ends. Live coals scattered over the engine room and set fire to the vessel which the crew was unable to subdue and finally they were forced to make their escape in small boats. The Pottsville was com- ing from Bridgeport with the barges E. Showdy and Daisy, light, in tow, and the Daisy also ran on the rocks when the Pottsville struck and was badly strained. The crew of ‘ the tug sought refuge on the Showdy-wherefll they remained all night. The Potts- ville was a large boat and compar- atively new. Capt. Ryan and one of the crew row- ed to South Norwalk in a. small boat and engaged Capt. Verity to tow the barges to Wilson’s Point. Men work- ed all night pumping the water out of the Daisy and Sunday morning she was pulled off the rocks. The Daisy was to have been left at Wilson’s Point to be loaded with stone from a quarry. When the Pettsville struck the reef it was full high tide and Capt Ryan thought he had ample water to cross near Sheffield Island light, but he miscalculated and struck the rocks at the southwest of the island, marked by a spindle. The crew endeavored to save the beat and sevei'al sharp blasts of the whistle were blown, but thel men were unable to control the (fire and as no assistance, arrived, they were at last forced to make there es- cape in small boats. LIQUOR DEAllIiRS SLOW. 'Not So Many Applications as Usual 'l hroughout lhefiiCounlysu The County ccmmissioners held sess- ions last week in the othet’cities of the county, receiving and advertising liq- uor applications. For some cause the liquor dealers have been noticeably slow this year about putting in their applications. The commissioners held a session in Daubury, where they received only a fair proportion of the usual number of applications. In Greenwich there was 25 applications received, within two of the present number of saloons. About twenty, or not more than a. third, were filed in Stamford, and in Ndrwalk in the neighborhood of fifty were received. The commissioners will be at their office the remainder of this month and dilatory applicants will now be obliged to go to Bridgeport. The license year throughout the county, Bridgepbrt excepted, begins Nov 1. Oscar SHerwood Dead. Oscar Sherwood, formerly of this town, died on Saturday at his home in Newark, N. J.

BOERS SHOO‘T WILDLY. It Is Thought. They _Aotnany Attach—I; od"Ma1o‘kfig an 115 Wé-Z'é flofiiflsoi.‘ CAPE TOWN, Oct. 18. —T-he Boers seized the telephone at Modder River Monday evening and attempted to speak with Kimberley, hoping to learn the dis- position of the British forces there. The maneuver was discovered and frustrated. An armored train reconnoitered Spy:- fontein from Kimberley and engaged the Boers at that point. Five Boers were killed and several wounded. The Britifi suffered no loss. Communication with Belmont station, 60 miles south of Kimberley, is still open. The fight with the armored train from Kimberley, in which the Boers lost more men than they did at Majuba hill, is held to prove that thcii shooting is not so good as it is reputed to be. It is the general belief here from items of intelligence 1eceived that the Boers actually attacked-Mafeking and were no- pulsed. The reports of continued fighting there are regarded as proving that the Boers failed to score a success. Ammunition For Boers. PORT SAID, Oct. 18.—The German steamer Kaiser, from Hamburg, is disem- ' banking at the entrance of the Suez ca- nal 4, 000 pieces of ammunition consigned to the Tiausvaal. This step is taken in order to avoid seizure in the Red sea by British cruisers. The ammunition will probably be re-embarked for Hamburg on board the steamer H'ei'zog, which is shortly expected here. The Kaiser was shadowed by the British second class cruiser Thctis though the Medi- ter1anc.1n. The Thetis passed it"o the canal yestmday mowing. It is 1eportcd that several Get man omceis are on board the Kaiser, bound for the Transvaal. Three Hundred Boers Killed. KIMBERLEY, Oct. 18.—A report was brought here by dispatch riders by way of Vryburg that Colonel Baden-Powell made a sortie in force‘at Mafeking and attacked and defeated the Boers.
