Commander Booth Tucker was applauded again and agaln. The delegates gave him three cheers when he concluded. Recee was then taken. -~ Delegation is Too Large. When the afternoon session convened, at 2:3, a letter from Clicf Engineer George H. Newell of the United Btates geological survey was read, inviting the co-operation of the Irrigation congress. A letter from the National Business league of Chicago was also read, commend- ing the work of the congres Ex-Governor Prince of New Mexico in- troduced a resolution providing for & com- mittee of five to report the condition of the Irrigation congress’ constitution, rec- ords of previous congresses and their action on the constitution. The resolution was passed. The report of the committee on creden- tials was then read, showing M6 acoredited delegates, Tepresenting different states and territories. The large number of delegates, ated, was due to a violation of the clause of the constitution providing for the appointment of delegates. Senator Parls Gibson of Montana spoke on “The Repeal of Some of Our Land Law: saying in part: If the desert land lc? the commutation clause of the homestead act and the tim- ber and stone act should be repealed we would still have upon the s of the nation a true homestead law, under which the actual settler could acquire 160 acres of land by mup{ln and cultivating it five 3’0.(\1, and this {s lfio only land law required for the settiement -of our public lands.

It left death and destruction In its trafl. It greatest force was feit at the Delaware capes and at the lower part of the New Jersey coast. Six lives are known to have beea lost and five seamen Are miss- ing and are belleved to have been drowned A three-masted and a two-masted schooner gunk at the Delaware breakwater, and also about half a dozen coal barges foundered in the vicinity of the Delaware capes. All the way up the coast and especlaily at At- lantio City hotels and other bulldings suf- fered badly from the wind, which blew with hurricane force. The edge of the sotrm strusk Philadel- phia but did no great damage, beyond erip- pling telegraph and telephone lines. Captaln and Crew Drowmed. DELAWARE BREAKWATER, Dbl Bept. 16.—The southern storm which had been coming up the Atlantic coast several days struck the Delaware capes early this morn- ing with almost cyclonlc force and as a result at least five lives were lost. The storm lasted from 3 o'clock this morning untll 7 o'clock. The wind reached a maxi- mum velocity of elghty miles an hour and the rain fell in torrents. The most serious wreck reported was that which befell the schooner Hattle A. Marsh, whose captain, J. B. Mehafty, and four members of the crew were drowned. The Marsh hafled from New London, Conn., and was bound from Painter's Point, Me., for Philadelphla with a carga of paving stone. Bhe was caught in the terrific wind #torm outside the new breakwater. The captain tried to reach the harbor of ref- uge, but before he could do so the vessel had to anchor and try to ride the storm. Her anchors, however, did not hold and the schooner with her dead weight of stones was dashed on the rocks of the har- bor of refuge. The steam pilot boat Phila- delphia went to her relief, but only suc- ceeded in saving Mate Norman Campbell and one seaman. Captain Mehafty and the four other sailors were lost in the fury of the lashing waves. The rescued men were taken to the Lewes life saving station and cared for. They were in u very exhausted condition when picked up. Another Schooner Sinks. In the old harbor southwest of the mari- time reporting station three schooners dragged thelr anchors and collided. They were Emily F. Northam, Adam Townsend and Sea Bird. The Sea Bird, which was a two-masted vessel, went down and her crew was rescued and landed on the point of Cape Henlopen. The men were cared for at the life-saving station. The Northam had her jib boom carried away and her yawl stove. The Townsend lost her head gear and Jib boom. The barges Blmwood, Gilberton and Kalmia, ldden with coal from Philadelphia for eastern polnts, were sunk in Delaware bay westward of the Brown shoal. Their crews were rescued. The tug Bpartan, which was towing the coal barges Treverton, Hammond and an unknown barge s reported to have sunk. Crews May He Lost. There are no tidings of Spartan's crew. It {8 reported that three barges were sunk in the ocean off the capes and that their crews are probably lost. A bark is anchored off Ocean City, Md, with dis- tress signals in its rigging. The pliot boat Philadelphia has gone to its assistance. The barge Marcus Hook, from Philadel- phia for New York, was almost wrecked. It dragged its anchors and was fast drag- ging on to the cape when tugboats saved it and towed the vessel to safe anchorage. Considerable minor damage was done to the breakwater. The harbor of refuge, Esst End lght, and the day mark on the breakwater were carried away. Some of the piling at the reporting station was washed away and the telegraph line was down all day. Damage at Atlantic City. ATLANTIC CITY, N. J, Sept. 16.—The troplcal storm which struck the New Jer- sey coast early this. morning was one of the severest cxperienced for a iong time. The wind blew with hurricane force and while It lasted kept up a speed of seventy miles an hour. The storm was terrific to a degree, but the damage was not as great as was at first belleved. A conservative estimate places the entire damage at $25,000 or $30,00. The telegraph and teleph lines leading out of the city are down and the fact that the city was cut off from connection with the outside world started wild rumors that the great resort had been entirely swept away. The first train in from Philadelphia and other points brought exclted relatives and friends who were anxious after the welfare of thelr loved ones, and found them well and happy and telling amusing stories about the freaks of the storm. Great damage was done along the board- walk, /where the one-story bulldings suf. fered to a considerable extent. The storm's flercest attack was made on the McClay apartment buliding at Pacific and Bouth Carolina avenues. The roof was more than half torn off. When the roof blew off the fifty or more families were thrown into a panic. They were quickly pacified, how- ever, and all left the building. One sick lad, suffering from fever, was hurried to & hospital. Storm at New York. NEW YORK, 8ept. 16.—Greater New York and its environs for several miles in all Qirectioris, today were visited by the flercest rainstorm known hereabouts in years. The day began WItIF raiz, which Incieased with the wind, grew stronger and for two hours about midday the combined fury of the ele- ments rendefed damage on land and water amountimg to many thousands of dollars. The gale culminated about noon fn & wind velooity of fifty-four miles an hour. Sheets of water drove aeross the city, eatching many without shelter. The gaug showed 1.30 precipitation in the two hours. Then the storm subsided. By the middle of the afternoon the wind had dropped to a mere breese and the sun broke through the clouds. Beveral persons were injured by belng blown off fire éscapes and wagons or by being forced against walls by the onslaught of the storm, and not a few of them are in hospitals nursing brulses and cuts, but no deaths have been reported. The gale was especially severe at sea, T causing havoe to the shipping down the bay, where many vessels were sunk or wrecked. The worst of the damage was reported trom Staten Island. The entire fleet of the Staten Island Yacht club, at ancher, was elther sunk or wrecked. The pllot boat Hermit was driven ashore and there was & collision between a schooner and & barkentine. A tug boat was Wrecked In Hell Ga » Chau Loosened. The stetple of the South Congregational chureh In Brooklyn also was loosened.

Occupants of the bullding #ald they felt the huge structure sway in the gale and many were so badly scared that they left the bullding. Tug Founders with Crew. ANGLESEA, N. J., Sept. 16.—The ocean- golng tug Bpartan, which was engaged in towing coal barges between Philadelphin and New England ports, foundered during this morning's storm on the ocean at the entrance to Delaware bay, and it is feared that five of its crew are lost. The other ten members of the crew were rescued oft floating wrecksge near Cape IHenlopen by Captain John Leonard of the fihing boat Irene and landcd at this place. They res port that they became separated from the other five men. Wind in New Jersey. CAPE MAY, N. J, Sept. 16.—The heaviest wind and rainstotm in years passed over Cape May and the lower coust of New Jersey this morning, doing tauch damage. Fortunately the tide was low while the storm was at its height and the heavy sea did not do much damage beyond the car- rying away of about 300 feet of the plor of the Quéen Anne rallroad. ' The high wind_uprooted trees, damaged the roof of the Columbia hotel and also lifted from fits place the roof of the Security Trust build- ing. The storm left its trafl at Sea Isle City, north of where the wind blew seventy miles an hour Beveral cotlages were wrecked and the dome on the Continental hotel was blown down. Lighthouse Tender Drow: SALEM, N. J., Sept. 16.—Howard Nichol- son, aged % years, was drowned at the mouth of Salem creek during the storm this morning. He accompanied his uncle in an open boat to the mouth of the creek, where they Intended to cleah the lamps on the lighthouse.

BRITAIN 0 SEND SQUADRON| Report That It Will Take Active Interest in Turkish Bituation. EFFORTS OF POWERS ARE TO AVERT WAR Understood at Governments Will Grant No As- tance to Bulgaria in Case of Open Hostilities, LONDON, Sept. 17.<The efforts of the powers, according to the latest telegrams, are directed both' at Constantinople dnd So- fla towards an endeavor to avert war. It Is stated that all the ambassadors at Con- stantinople have drawn the Porte's atten- tion to the danger of permitting a continua- tion of the excesses in Macedonia by the Turkish troops and irregulars. The Dally Chronicle says it understands that Great Britain has declded on a still stronger step in the dispatch of the British squadron in the support of her diplomatic endeavore at Constantinople to put an end to the massacres. It is impossible, howaver, to confirm or deny the Daily Chronicle's statements. Most of the states In the near east con- sider war inevitable, but think it may yet be delayed, neither the Bulgarians nor the Turks being rdally prepared for it. The tormer are not sufficiently armed, while Turkey does not feel safe until her lines of communication are less at the mercy of Bulgarian insu, gont bands. A Vienna paper asserts that Prince Ferdinand of Bulghria has sent a trusted agent to King Peter, in- viting Bervian co-operation against Turkey. The correspondent of the Dally Telegraph at Sofla says Bulgatia's reply to the porte's protest against the continual crossing of the frontier by bands and the smuggling of arms and ammunition from Bulgaria was couched In most uncompromising lan- guage, leaving no prospect whatever of an amicable arrangement. A dispateh to the Daily Mafl from Sofla, says that Prince Ferdinand will grant an interview to John B. Jackson, the United Stated agent at Sofla. Bulgarie to Get No H SOFIA, Sept. 16.~Although no formal re- plies have been recelved to the Bulgarian government's note, it is stated that the representatives of three great powers have instructed their consuls to Bulgaria to re- main qulet, as in the event of a war with Turkey Bulgaria need expect no help in forelgn quarters. It is also reported that the foreign conSuls interviewed General Petroft and endedvored to persuade him to postpone the mobilisation of the Bulgarian forces, but the premier declined.
