Sophia and His Two Children,
Engineer and Steward Went
Down with the Moonbeam.
During‘ a High Southwesterly
Wind

NEWPORT, R. l., May d.—-—'l‘he New
London tug Gertrude put into Newport
Harbor today and reported the long of
the barge Moonbeam off Point Judith
“last night with all on board, including
the captain, engineer, steward and two
children of the captain. Capt. G. W.
Halyburtou, of the towboat, did not
know the names of any of those drown-
ed. It was learned from other sources.
however, that Charles Ackers was the
captain of the Moonbeam. The cap-
tain had his thii'teon-year-oid daugh-
ter and his son, aged seven. with him.

The Moonbeam was being towed
from Hoboken to Providence with a
cargo of coal. She went down Ill a
gale which swept the Long island
Sound during the ‘night. She was own-
ed by the Eastern Coal Company, of
Providence.

The Gertrude had in tow the barges
Moonbeam; Ariadne and Snipe, in the
ordermamed. All were laden with
hard coal consigned to the Eastern

, Coal Company. Yesterday afternoon
a high southwesterly wind rapidly In-
creased in force and by evening heavy
seas driven by the gale began to wash
over the tug and her deep laden
barges. At times all four vessels were
completely submerged, but the, tug
struggled on for hours. The tow was
offPolnt‘ Judith on the Southern
Rhode Island coast, when those on the
Gertrude saw a torch flashed from the
decks of the Moonbeam. immediately
followed by a shrill blast from the
burgers steam whistle, signalling for
assistance. In not of the heavy seas.
Captain Haiyburtu. of the tug order-
ed the engine reVorsed and dropping
the tow, put about and attempted to
approach the Moonbcam. The barge
.was rolling and Nwmvmfil’ium and
it was apparent to those on the tug
that the barge was partly full of water.
Seas constantly made a clean breach
over her. The danger was great, bllt
the tug was headed for the labodng
craft 'and she was but a short dist nce
from it when the barge suddenly car-
eeued. gave a final plunge and nothing
more of her could be seen save a few
pieces of wreckage, which had been
swept from the decks. Captain Holy—
burton remained in the vicinity for a
long time, his men peering into the
darkness for some trace of those who
were on the barge, and straining their
ears for a cry for help, but no sight
or sound was noted. The sea forbade
the launching of lifeboats. When the
captainyas sure that there was no
chance of picking up any one, he pick-
ed up the Ariadne, headed for New-
port, reaching here today. Captain
Halyburton says from the Moonbeam's
behavior he was of the opinion that
the water poured through the hatches
when the seas swept over the decks.

The Moonbeam was built at Sears.
port, Maine. in 1869. Her gross ton-
nage was 675 and her not tonnage 641.
She was 140 feet long. 31 feet in

- breadth and 30 feet deep She had
been in the coal carrying traffic for a
long time

PROVIDENCE, R. 1., March 4.—

mand of the barge Moonbeam, lost off

James P. Barry Narrowly Es-
caped Death Last Night--
loseph Quick Hurt by Loadof
Oil Barrels Falling on Him

James Pu Barry, the well-known
Winnipauk'saloon proprietor, receiv-
ed a very close call from death last
evening about 7 o‘clock, while driving
a spirited horse to his delivery wagon.
The lively animal did not take kindly

to the passing of a trolley car, and at
a critical period in its antics. the wag-
on sent tipped and Mr. Barry was
thrown out. He landed. very heavily
on the ground. face downward. his
head coming in contact with the hard
steel rull.

Mr. Barry was momentarily knocked
unconscious. but he quickly regained
ills senses and was taken home in his
wagon. [t was found that he had se-
vere gushes in his forehead, the bridge
of the nose and chin. The wounds
were painful and bled profusely. Dr.
William .l. Tracey was called to Mr,
Barrys home to dress his injuries. No
bones were found to be broken, but
the patient will probably feel the of
facts of the experience for some time
as the shock was severe.

At the time of the. accident. Mr. Bar-
ry was accompanied by three friends,
John McGrath, the wcllknown baseball
pitcher. John McNerney and Jacob Mil-
ler. They were driving north and
were some distance below J. C. Ranv
dlc‘s store when the horse began first
to get on its mettle at the approach of
the trolley car. The latter, which was
in charge of Conductor .lohn Seymour
and Molorman Stephen Brady. was
stopped ill order that the horse might
be driven by with as little trouble as
possible. The exciting incidents all
occurred when air. Bhrry attempted to
turn around after the car had passed
In crossing over the rails. one of the
wheels of the wagon became cough
and the turn was so abrupt that till
scat went up on end and the next Mr
Barry's companions know, he was ly
ing bleeding in the road.

This exciting turn of affairs only
tended to make the horse more fright
cued and he started to run in lively
manner toward Norwaik. Aficr thl
driver was thrown. the animal had l
free line, which he took advantage of
Pitcher McGrath. beside whom Mr
Barry had been a moment before. har’
presence of mind and skill to recovel
the reins. so that he was able to bring
the runaway to a standstill near th.
resilience of G. P. Underhiil.

Spectators to the runaway. when
they rushed up to Mr. Barry's pros
irate form, expected to find him dead
bill be soon proved that he was very
much alive.
as a result of the accident. None of
the three other occupants of the wag
on were injured.

Joseph Quick injured.

Joseph Quick. employed by the Con
necticut Railway and Lighting Com
pany. in the gas department, was daa
ed and badly shaken up yesterday at.
ternoon by having a wagon load oi
oil barrels topple over on him. The ac
cidont happened on the steep decilvity
from the top of the Water street hil'
lo the old gas house.

Quick was driving down the hill at
the time. Without warning. the load
of barrels behind him started a land.
slide movement in his direction and
soon after found himself lying on the
Hillside. William Hyatt, another
employee of the company, who was at
the old gas house, came to Mr. Quick's
assistance and took him home. His
injury consisted chiefly of the severe
shaking up and he was able to return
to his work this morning. The horse
is a patient animal and fortunately did
not attempt to run away.
