ONE MAN CAUGHT AND HELD BETWEEN TWO AUTOMOBILES. On the Red Bank meantime, with 1,200 passengers aboard, there had been tremedous excitement. The at- ter rail and gates on tha port side had been smashed; the railing on the women's cabin was torn away and many windows were broken and glass fell upon struggling passengers who rushed from the cabins to the deck and John Hashaten of No, 407 Wal- nut street, Roselle, N. J. was caught and bruised between two jomo~ biles which were eet in motion by the jar to the boat. Other persons were cut by glass and bruised by being thrown from their feet and all rushed ashore as @oon as the ferryboat reached Its slip. Capt. George B. Hughes of the Red Bank sald that, like Capt. Allen, he kept his boat moving forward immed- jately after the collision and shouted to Capt. Allen and his crew to jump aboard the ferryboat, thinking that the Taurus would eink. Little damage was done in the col- lision between Point Comfort and the Schooner, T! teamship’s wheel- house was damaged but none of the 300 passengers aboard was injured though all were excited and fright- ened. RUDDER CHAIN OF THE BRONX BREAKS NEAR BATTERY. There was similar excitement aboard the Bronx when one of the Municipal ferry’s rudder chains broke as she neared the Battery. The big ferry floated helplesely for a mo- ment, but only a moment, for then she was reversed and using her other rudder made her ally safely. The Lusitania’s passengers who awoke this morning expecting to find themselves 300 miles at sea were astounded to see the dim but recognis- able outlines of Staten Island. The fog had kept the liner off Stapleton all night. From as far as Fire Island came reports that the fog was aa thick along the Long Island shore as in New York City, and many incoming Unere will be delayed. Off Sandy Hook to-day are several fogbound liners, among them the Hamburg from Mediterranean points, the Pring Sigismund from Colon and other Central American and West Indian ports and the Red Star liner Zeeland from Antwerp and Dover. All have passengers aboard. It was 12.2% o'clock when the Lusi- tania got away from Quarantine on her belated start for England, and La France of the French line, which had left her dock at 10 o'clock, but anchored at Quarantine, got up her anchor, too.
