picking this up when there was a snap-

to descend. gaining momentum every

his head. when the elevator car struck
the first floor of the building, the noise
being heard all over the factory.
The shock‘threw Mr. Barr down.
but he managed to crawl off the
elevator to the floor. Here he was as-
sisted by William Ross and Harry M.

he was made as comfortable as possi-

The accident. which huppened about

gang. In places of the heavy flange
rail which has been used on the outer
side of the track. a regular rail will
be substituted which will make it a
great deal better for persons having
carriages and bicycles. as there is no
deep groove to catch in. The inner
rall while of the same style as used
formerly has not such a high flange
and will also improve the conditions
under the bridge.
Superintendent Wainwright superin-
tended the work in person during the
day and hurried it along. He said that
before night the work will have been
completed of laying the new curves ar-
ound the Lauder corner. The cross-
over track will notbe put in place to-

complete this part of work before tear-

was lowed Here for Repairs
During the heavy blow yesterday af-
ternoon. the yawl “Sync." of the Ben-
sunburst, Long Island. Yacht Club.
owned by J. B. Pollard. of Benson-
hurst. met with an accident, and is
now in this harbor, out of commis-
sion.
The "Syce" had been away on a
cruise. and was proceeding westward.
When off the Norwalk islands. yester-
day afternoon. she struck a squall.
which was heavier than usual. She
was close roofed at the time. but the
wind was too much for her, as she
was going across It. The port shroud
gave way. there was a crash and her
forward rig went over to leeward. The
bowsprit snapped off short at her eyes.
and the mast went level with the
fleck.
Fortunately. no one was injured in
any way. and no one was knocked or
dragged overboard by the debris. An
attempt was made to navigate by
means of the "jlgger sell." at the stern,
but it was a dismal failure. so the
rrnlon jack was hoisted upside down
from the "jigger mast." and the mem-
bers of the crew waited for aid.
The oyster steamer Commander
came along and towed the yawl into
the harbor. where she found a berth
in the slip at lrvlng Lockwood A: Com-
pany‘s coal wharf. The party will con-
tinue their trip by train. and this af-
ternoon the yawl will be hauled out at
.loeeph Fowler's shipyard for repairs.
A new mast will be installed. and
other work about her done.

deadly blank cartridge of July 4. For a
time It appeared as if there would be
very small chances of saving the lit-

taken and anti-toxin was injected in-

sure and gradually the antl- toxin prov-

Had Suspicious Around by an
Ovcr Draft of 000.000.
A prominent resident of Souihport.
discussing the clrlef matter of interest
here at this tlrne. the 0. T. Sherwood
ruse. asks the question: "What pro-
tection has a man got even in a nation-
al bank?" liis views are that recent
conditions lend to show lax judgment
on the part of some, and he is not
over confident that a dcposltur will be
fully protected. while for stock hold-
ers, he concludes. with others, that
they will lose all their shares. and be
assessed in addition.
How Sherwood came to be caught
manipulating figures is not generally
known. From a reliable source, the al-
legation is made that toward the end
his brain seems to have been befogged.
While the reports to the directors
would seem to have indicated condi-
tions to be straight. government oili-
clals were. made suspicious by a report
to them showing an alleged "overdraft"
amounting to $80,000. an incredible
amount In an Institution such as the
National Bank of Southport. Although
the statement bore ofilclal signatures
the executives at Washington returned
it with a query as to Its correctness as
well as a logical (canon for such condi-
tions.
Then. so goes the allegation declara
tlona of tampering with figures were
made and the detective mac...ncry prlt
in motion. The losses to stockholders
will be heavy added to by suits that
will doubtless be instituted as it to fur-
ther alleged that the Trust Companies
have "laid down." refused to pay up
owing to credited mismanagement of
the bank's affairs. One attorney ap-
proached relative to the latter allega-
tion. representing one of the largest
estates involved. made the statement
that he had received no ofilcial infor-
mation of that character. Asked if at
trust company could take such an is-
cue. he thought it possible. but hardly
probable. In his case demands on say--
eral specific items would be made; ex-
ception can be taken. perhaps to an
one of them and should the compau
take any issue it might be that it would
elect to litigate on a chance of pcusiblb
compromise or winning on one or more
points.
Another prominent resident is of the
opinion that the greateh- the risk' the
greater the liablllay and he fails to ap-
preciate that any trust company hold-
ing risks on 0. T. Sherwood can evade
full settlement. ’
