I’EKIN, August IT.——AIIIcrlculr pur-
tlclpation III the llnukow-Sze-Chueu
ltullroad loan was definitely settled
at the ofl'lccs of the foreign board to-
day by lienry P. Fletcher. the Ameri-
can charge If shelves. and Liang Tun
Yen. president of the board. The
Alarm is to be Increased from 827.500.-
000 to 330.000.000 and of this latter
amorrnt American bunkers are to gel
one‘qual‘ter. the other tlIreequsrters
going to British, French and German
interests.
Americans are. to have equal oppor-
tunity to supply material for both the
Sre—Chuen and the Canton lines and
the branches: they will appoint subor~
dlnate engineers and they will have
also one-half of future loans of the
SIe-Chuen Railroad and its branches
with the corresponding advantages.
The, details of this settlement will
be arranged after the arrival here the
end of this week of Willard ll.

upon the protest lodged by Mr. Fletch-
er agnlnst the completion of the loan
with British. French and German irr—

an edict issued authorizing the sigua~

question will then be conclusively
settled.
The settlement reached today pre-

NEW YORK, August l'I'.—~in a heavy
easterly gale, which piled the surf high
upon the southern coast of Long is-
laud. a llIrce-lnasled vessel, believed
to he the Arlington, of Boston. went
aground on Long Iieacll before day-
light today. Her decks were swept by
the breaking seas and the crew of eight
men took refuge in the bowsprit while
the Long ileacb life saving crew tried
vainly to shoot a line over the vessel
or to launch their surf boat. The ves-
vel was lying about three hundred
yards off the. hotel Nassau and scores
of guests from that and other hotels
thronged the beach and watched the
efforts of the life savers. They saw
one of the members of the crew lunch
a raft in an attempt to bring a line
ashore but the raft drifted seaward
and along the shore Instead of com-

sisted of about 200 men. composed of
troom from Forts Allan and Hamilton
and was completely destroyed by the
defenders, who suffered I loss of only
18 men out. of I force of 120.
The engagement occurred at NIhsnt,
not far from the residence of United
States Senator Henry Cabot we...
and followed on attack by the invaders
upon the secondary stand It Nshant.
Had the stack at the reds been suc-
cessful, the invading army would have
accomplished much towards cepwrins
Boston, but the attempt was frustrated
and the “dead" soldiers fled hock. to
NahInt water front to embark on the
transport Iumner.
The troops were landed sboht one
o'clock this morning near the Ocean
House, Swampscott, from the Bumper.
Two troops of about 100 men each,
were landed and marched up tbe’etste
boulevard to the NIhant life saving
ing on the beach. The condition of
this daring sailor was worse than that
of his shipmates clinging to the bow
sprlt above the breakers.
The vessel was discovered on the
beach at daylight by employee of the
hotel Nassau and the patrol. of the
Long lleach life sniilrg crew.
llurniug cordon signals from the
beach glue the stranded mariners no-
ticc that their plight was discovered
The Lyle gun of the Long Beach crew
was dragged a mile from the station
to the scene of the wreck and an at- l
tempt was made to shoot. the line over
the rigging of the rental. The first
shot fell short chiefly because of the
high wind Several times the life sav-
ers recharged their gun and sent the
projectile with a slender line IttIch-
ed flying seaward but each time the
weight felt about fifty feet from the!
deck of the stranded vessel Further
attempts to rig a breaches buoy in this
fashion were abandoned and the life
savers dragged their surf boat onto
the, bench some distance out of the
vessel and waited a favorable moment
to rush the boat through the surf.
Twice when the surf seemed to be I
little less high than usual they dIItIed
into the water. dragging the hon. but,
each time they were filing back upon
the beach unable to force their way
through the first line of breIkorI.

wreck the life savers were still wait-' ,

vessel seemed to be resting solidlyi
in the sand and in no immediate dim-i
ger of breaking up. The masts were
still standing, but the crew were ap-
parently unwilling to trust themselves
aloft.
After waiting on the beach until,
nearly 10 o'clock the life avers made
another desperate effort and succeeded
in launching their life boot through the
surf. After that the rescue of the
crew of the stranded schooner was
easily accomplished. Rowing off
through the heavy rollers the life sev-
ers threw a line. to the crew clinging
to the bowsprit and one by one they
dropped into the surf boat and were
safely landed on the beach. By this
time hlmdreds of guests from the
beach hotels were gathered and cheer-
ed enthusiastically when the men
were landed. Several of the crew
were taken Into the hotel Nassau and
cared for while the others were given
shelter and clothing in the life saving
station. Exhausted by their long ex-
posure to the driving wind and rain.
the survivors were hardly able to tell
the story of the wreck.
The captain. however, said that he
was misled by the lights of the hotel
Nassau. which he took to be those of
some great liner. Believing tflt his
vessel must be far from shoro‘ he took
no soundings and supposed hie Vessel
was still in deep water until she struck
on the beach. The captain said his
vessel would be a total loss.
Madden Pierson. the Swedish sailor
who put of! in a life raft from the
stranded vessel, was washed ashore
alive at Rockaway Beach during' the
morning and is being cared for there.
Eight men in all were rescued from
the schooner by the Long Beach life
savers. One of the sailors. James
Brown. a cabin boy. is suffering from
a fractured ankle. The Mexican cook
of the vessel narrowly escaped death.
He was unable to get into the life
boat from his perch on the bobetay and
a line was made fast to him and he
was pushed overboard and then hauled
into the life boat. \

be ashore on bong Island is owned by
