Unable to Give Twenty-three men of the twenty-six that sailed from St. Servan, France, on the little brig Ile de Terre Neuve, on April 9, reached New York to-day board the oil steamer Phoebus, Capt. Schierhorst, who picked them up in midocean under thrilling circumstcnces. This ts the second hardy crew of shipwrecked French fishing brig that has been brought to this port within the week. The Ile de Terre Netive ran into a hurricane on April 26. the little vessel was dismusted, tho thirteen boats went overboard, the bulwarks were smashed and seven sailors were floundering in the sea. of these were snved by the exerticns of thelr brave shipmates. The other poor fellows went to the bottom. In the hold of the brig 150 tons of salt, eaught on the Newfoundland Banks, shifted when the hurricane struck her nd held the Ile de Terre Neuve on her beam ends. The vessel was down forward, and the only spot on deck where there was any possibility of hang- ing on was at the furthest extremity aft. There Capt. Corbinals and his shivering twenty-two huddled all through the night of the 26th, all through the twenty-four hours of light and dark- ness of the 27th and until 3 o'clock on the morning of the 29th, when the Phoebus appeared. During all this time the little brig rolled in the trough of tho sea. There was not a sign of another vessel until the night of the 28th, when a big liner passed some miles away. the distress signals flared from the brig, but the sea was so high that he He cruised around at a distance for several hours was unable to come close. and finally put off in the gale. ‘As her lights disappeared in the distance the men on the wrecked brig The captain led them in prayer and them above the noise of the roaring wind and sea could be heard the voices of the brave crew singing a hymn that they thought was the hymn of death. ‘Although hope was low, Capt.

HANDICAP oe / Big Field Will Start in Metropolitan Handicap at Morris Park—Gunfire and Leonora Loring Favorites. Morris Park opens its gates to-morrow, and there the real racing of the season will begin. The horsemen have been at other tracks—Aque- duct, Bennings, Jamaica and New Orleans—since Jan. 1, but it is only when Morris Park opens that the “racing kings” make an effort to show what millions of dollars have proWuced in high-bred horseflesh. The big event to-morrow will be the Metropolitan Handicap, the first of the classic races of the year. Mr. W. C. Whitney has entered two} cracks in Gunfire and Leonora Loring. Thev are in at a nice weight, and it looks as though the stable had the race at its mercy. But there are many others who are likely to be contenders—Colonel Bill, with top weight at | 120 pounds; Igniter, which will pack 110; good reliable Old England, with 118, and Lux Casta, with 102.

The notice of dicmissal is conveyed in a short communication front’ the Commissioner, In which it is stated that, after a long and impartial trial, Inspector Cross was found guilty of neglect of duty and conduct unbecoming an officer, in allowing disorderly houses and pool-rooms, the ‘character of which must have been known to ‘him, to exist in the inspec tion district of which he had charge. Reference is made by the Commissioner to the fact that Inspector Cross had close to twenty-five years of police experience. This fact has béen used against him in his plea that he was ignorant of the character of the places ‘complained of. “What his motives may have been,” says Commissioner Greene, “i The decision of the Commissioner was no surprise to Mulberry street, |nor indeed to any one posted upon the conduct of police affairs under the It was apparent from the beginning of the triat CROSS’S RISE IN THE POLICE, Adam A. Cross was born in Albany in 1856. He began his New York From a similar position many men of power in the police department and politics have graduated, notably, Charles F. Murphy, the present leader of Tammany Hall. Cross -was ambitious. He was appointed a patrolman in 1878, and, seeing possibilities in the department, he educated himself. Naturally shrewd and of a winning personality, he made friends rapidly. He was made a roundsman on Sept. 28, 1882; a sergeant on Jan. & 1884, and a captan on Dev. 8, 1890." On Aug. 31, 1894, he was dismissed from the department as a result of exposure brought out by the Lexow Committee. He appealed to the courts and was reinstated with back pay on March 26, 1895. He was made an inspector in October, 1897; was the counsellor and friend of Commissioner Partridge, and was the instigator of the movement that got Sergt. James Churchill out of the Police Depart- ment. FOUR NEW CAPTAINS ARE APPOINTED BY GEN.
