And Mate Charles Christian of the Snyg
(who got here yesterday) helped launch
the stanch gig of the Snyg so the crew

were hauled safe o’er the brine.
Although the Snyg, of schooner rig, will
ply the waves no more, let us hope that

Washington, D. C., Jan. 2Q.—At today's
session of the national board of trade
resolutions were adopted favoring the ap-
pointment of a standing committee of
seven to be known as the committee of
conference with the department of com-
merce and labor, urging a liberal appro-
priation by congress to bring the new
department up to the full measure of ef-
ficiency, and declaring it would be unwise
for the national board of trade to become
an incornoratexl hndv at this time.

The German school ship Grossherzogin
Elisabeth is due to arrive Friday, the
22d, and will remain in port until the 28th.
Possibly she may get in tomorrow. She
will be supplied and looked after in mat-
ters pertaining to the port while here by
Messrs. W. W. Wilson & Co., the
sentatives of the North German
Steamship Co. at Galveston.
A great deal of interest attaches
visit of this school ship, as she carries a
large number of young German appren-
tices who are brought here to become ac-
quainted with the conditions of the port.
While this ship is not classed as part of
the German navy, she is entirely under
the supervision of the German govern-
ment, her mission

Elisabeth will probably get here in time
to have a chance to get the run of Gal-

cruiser Gazelle, which is riot due until

the rules governing the school ship service
will permit of her coming right up to the
wharves, whereas the men of war are re-

York recently, having on board eight sea-
men from the schooner Rebecca A. Tau-

Word has reached Galveston that on
Monday night the schooner Yevone was
run into and totally destroyed by a string
of barges. Thp Yevone was loaded with
cordwood and bound for this city,
barges were controlled by the tug Gil-
bert, which took off the crew of the sink-
ing schooner.
The Yevone was completely destroyed,
there being nothing left but a few pieces
of wreckage. She was a small schooner
with auxiliary power and belonged to the
mosquito fleet.
THE GALVESTON TRIBUNE : WEDNESDAY.
Wiig Rides the Waves No More—Back
Come Banana Men—Skaal to
tlje Vikings!
New York, Jan. 20.—While off the Hon-
durian coast, not far from Ruatan, the
famous little fruiter Snyg on dirty
weather ran. Her skipper, Wiig, was at
the helm, the boatswain hove the lead;
the air was thick; you could not see a
half ship’s length ahead. The mate said:
“Reefs of Ruatan, I think, are off our
bow.”
The skipper answered:
“You were right, they’re inside us now.”
The water filled the engine room and
put the fires out, and quickly o’er the
weather rails the seas began to spout.
When dawn appeared there also came
three blacks from off the isle. They deft-
ly managed their canoe, each wearing but
a smile; but clever as they were their
boat was smashed against the Snyg, and
they were promptly hauled aboard by
gallant Capt. Wiig.
“We had 13 aboard this ship,” the fear-
ful cook remarked. “I think we stand a
chance for life since these three coons
have embarked. Now let our good re-
trieyer, Nig, a lifeline take to shore, and
all hands of the steamship Snyg may see
New York once more.”
But Nig refused to leave the ship, and
so the fearless crew the lifeboat launched,
but breakers stove the stout craft through
and through. Said Capt. Wiig:
“Though foiled by Nig, our jig’s not up,

York Market.
By Associated Press.
New York, Jan. 20.—Plans formed re-
cently to broaden the scope of trade in the
New York grain market have been
unanimously adopted at a meeting of the

mends the establishment of new grading,
which was approved after an addition au-
thorizing the grading on western rice. The
principal features of this plan was the
extension of the New York delivery sys-
tem to Buffalo; also that grain can be
delivered at that point on New York
contract. The recommendations are to
take effect on Feb. 1.

A suit for $5000 damages was filed in the

the Galveston, Houston and Henderson
Railway company. Puppovich alleges

one of the railway crossings on the wharf
when he saw one of the defendant’s
switch engines coming and got out to hold
his horse, and that when the engine got
near him the horse became frightened and
jumped around. He claims that when
the engineer and fireman saw the horse
jumping they blew the whistle and made
the steam escape, causing a noise which
frightened the horse still more, the ani-
mal finally breaking away, drawing him
in such a way that he was dragged and
run over, causing injuries which caused
him to remain in bed for two weeks. The
petition states that the plaintiff is a man
of 55 years of age.

court against the Galveston City Railway
company asking for damages in the sum

that the gate on the car was either in-
effectually. locked or was defective in its
manufacture, and that in crossing other
tracks the fastening of the gate on which
he was holding was loosened and he was
thrown to the ground, striking on his
head and shoulder, causing injuries for
which he asks the above stated amount.
Cannon is a married man about 28 years
of age.

New York, N. Y„ Jan. 20.—Cotton
prices surpassed all previous records
since war times a^ain today, when March
sold at 14.48, May%t 14.54 and July at 14.61.
Further advances were attended by con-
siderable activity and excitement, but
the market soon begume quieter and it
seemed as though the trading was more
largely for professional than public ac-
count. The opening was firm at an ad-
vance of from 13 to 23 points, following
cables which were about 10 points better
than expected. Reports continued of a
good spot demand and estimates pointed
toward continued light receipts. The
initial advances, however, added to gains
of the last two days, meant a net
vance of nearly %c per pound.

Washington, D. C., Jan. 20.—At the be-
ginning of its session today the senate
took up the resolution for the addition
of a clock in the senate post office. Mr.
Hale objected to its immediate consider-
ation, saying that too many increases
were being made in the clerical forces of
the senate. At Mr. Hale’s request the res-
olution went over.
Senator Cullom presented a number of
petitions for a service pension bill, saying
he had received such petitions from al-
most every G. A. R. post in Illinois, and
that he hoped they would have the atten-
tion of the senate.
Mr. Pattersoffi then continued his address
on the Panama canal question. Mr. Pat-
terson undertook .to show that President
Rooscyelt’s claims that his course as to
the Panama route was in line with ths
policies preceding his administration were
unfounded.
