GET TWO NGHTS ONALBANY BOAT FORTY CENTS Passengers on the Frank Jones Camp Aboard When She | Breaks Down. NOT MUCH TO EAT. Six Hundred, Most of Them “Broke,” on Board at Start, Only a Few Leave. Several hundred disconsoiate and homesick persons waited all day at the Capital City line's dock, West Tenth atreet, for 5.20 o'clock to arrive, They have been there since midnight last night, and they feasted themselves on pictures of the Capitol at Albany, which is about all most of them have had to all day. | ‘Never again for me," sata one Albanian, “Little old New York ts good eneugh for you folks, but I'd rather, be in my shack on Arbor Hill, Albany, | just now than tn any of your ewell hotels.”" The plight of these enforced stay- overs in New York was due to an ac- cldent to the engine of the steamer Frank Jones. Repairs were being made to-day and she will resume her reguiar trina to-morrow night. Meanwhile pas fengers who were to go to Albany last night on her waited for the Ka: her sister ship, to sail this The Capitai City line is a new “one and has stirred up lively competition on the Hudson this year. The fare is © cents and the line has been doing pulled out last night the Jones had about 60 passengers aboard and the majority of them had juat the four bits for tho passage, ex- pecting to camp out on deck and get breakfast tn Albany this morning. ‘The Jones was up the river about op- posite Fort Washington when so thing happened to the engine. The pa: sengers were in a panic as they saw the big steamer begin to flounder about helplessly and float down stream. Capt. Lauch quieted them. ‘When tho boat was made fast at West One Hundred and Twenty-ninth street & couple of hundred persons, frightened | by the accident, hustled off. Then | thoughts of their financial condition | confronted them and they wanted to/ wet back again. But the officers of the boat refused to let them on, telling them to go to the company’s office at West Tenth street. Meantime they were going among the other passengers begging them to go ashore.

Here there was ne of great disorder. “Nix on money," the majority responded. ve got to sleep some- where and !f we go ashore there's no hotel for us." Bo the dont people decided to make the best of the situation. The men were allowed to sleep in chairs and on the decks as best they could, while staterooms were opened for women and | they passed the night in comfort. This morning the company tssued checks to the passengers and they will be honored om the Kaaterskill to-night. COL. H. E. GARTH DEAD.

Three entire floors of this building are given over to furniture. . In this sale they are crowded with 7,000 furniture samples—no two alike. Behind these samples are our immense warehouse stocks. Behind these is still more furniture to be called in later from the factories. Every kind and class of good furniture is in the sale. A unique collection of period and art furniture, a class well illustrated by the House Palatial. An immense variety of staple, moderate priced furniture.

Fancy worsted and cassimeres as a rule, though 25 silk-lined blue serge suits (our regular $35 grade) are included. We think no better testimonial as to the worthiness and wantedness of Wanamaker suits for men could be desired than | this double one: 1. Though ali other stores have been offering regular stocks at lessened prices, this store has not done so untii now 2. Yet we bring up against August with a trim Iittie stock—just enough to see ue through the season's fag-end. That speaks pretty well for the clothes and for the store, doesn’t it? Now, from time to time, we shall marshal the residual quan- tities and send them forth on the quick-step, new prices marking the new time. No need (o describe these suits. Men knowthem.
