Ex-Chief Tries in Vain to Get More Barges ‘—Carries Ice, Moves Barrels, Escorts Old Ladies and Waltzes on the Pier with One of the Little Girls of the District. When the steamboats and barges carrying the William 8. Devery out- ing drew away from the foot of West Twenty-fifth street this morning there was left on shore a crowd as large as that which packed the boats. Arrangements had been made to ac- commodate 10,000 women and chil- dren on the excursion. Three times 10,000 sought admission to the boats and fhe crush that resulted was tre- Mmendous. It is thought that fully 12,000 sailed as Devery’s guests. At first it was arranged that only those holding tickets should be al- lowed aboard the boats, but Devery found that many deserving women of bis acquantance had not been sup- plied with tickets, and eventually it became a free-for-all scramble for ad- mission. The big fellow tried to get more barges before the excursion Started, but was unable to do so, and at last the fleet moved out in the river, each boat and barge packed to the verge of suffocation. The busiest man in the city for an hoi.- before the outing sailed was Devery. He carried ice, moved bar- rels, relped hoist a piano on board one o: the barges, wheeled baby car- riages, fougnt off crushes, escorted olu ladies and directed the band. His collar was wilted and his clotnes were rumpled when the boats start- ed, but this fact did not prevent him from dancing a waltz on the pler with Mis- Bertha Meyer, one of the daintiest little girls in his district— and incidentally one of the proudest. Personally Escorted by “ ‘The guest of honor was Mrs. Sarah Martin, seventy-five years old, of No. 487 West Twenty-first street, who bas known William S. Devery since be was a baby she was personally escorted frcm her home to the boat by the big fellow .imeelf. “It’s no use,” said the ferry bay on his way back from Ul tised that the excursion was exclu-! sively for women and children a great mob of men formed outside the | pier and attempted to rush aboard | the boats just before the lines were t off. The burly figure of Devery | stood in the way. “Get back there, you stiff he} roared, “You know this outing is for the women folks and the kids. | The first one of you burlies that tries to pass here will get his face knocked off, and that goes from me. I'm not | looking for votes to-day, I'm giving the women and the kids a good time, | and the sooner you get onto that fact | and sneak away from here, the better you'll be off. Now, sneak.” There were deep murmurs from the crowd and threats of vengeance, but these murmurs and threats did not appear to disturb Devery, As the last whistle was blowing he placidly butted his way through the mob of men and escorted Molly Graney and Agnes Darcey aboard. They had been unable to force their way through the crowd. of Plans Made, At the last moment, owing to the crowded condition of the boats, Devery made a change of plan. It had been in- tended to take the outing party to Rarl- tan Bay Grove in New Jersey. This would en| 1 through the Kills around Staten Island. With the ov loaded barges such a trip would be dan- gerous, so It was decided to ride the guests of Devery about forty miles up the Hudson River, stopping on the re- turn at Dudley's Grove. There the original games and contests girls and boys will iy arried out, Prize winners, instead of nvdals or cash, will be given orders for shoes, hats, clothing and other useful articles on the mer- chants of the Ninth Assembly District who are members of the William 8. Devery Busine Men's Association. Fireworks will be displayed on the trip down the Hudson River to-night and a landing will be made at the foot of West Twenty-fifth street about 9 o'csck Chan; programme of for the women, Although it had been freely adver- PRINCE.

She would grace any company, and was particu- larly engaging as the gentle hostess to theee mothers and babes of the Ninth who had come tired and hot from the tenements for a day of rest and com- fort The ex-Chief's experience as a police officer reminded him of one practical feature not often thought of till after the average excursion gets started. He recruited a life-saving corps of twepty- five men from the life-savers along the Rockaways, and they came up from Arverne and Rockaway early this morn- ing and were distributed through the fleet to look out for the Devery babies.
