Nineteen Wrecked Sailormen Rescued by a Plucky British Skipper. THEY HAD ABANDONED HOPE AND WERE AWAITING DEATH. A STORY OF OCEAN'S FUKt. The British steamship Mohican came Into port early ycslclilay morning, three days overdue, bringing nineteen shipwrecked sailors and a rare, her.iic tain of the -tonuy sea. The Norwegian l.urk l.l'-'vuird, ImtUug from Milling between Krederlckstndt, London and Ijuebec, left (Juchec on with a cargo of lumber for London.

Hut the wind kept rising anil Increased in fury during the morning rind nfternoon of the 10th. The fhlp wus perfectly helpless anil Ihn great xvnvcs were crushing against her sides and washing over her decks. The men at the pumps had all they could do lo keep Uiemselve) from being whirled overboard.

They were wet lu (he shin ami without food, except little hard tack. on Ihn afternoon of Nov. IO 111? crew left the pumps and told the captain that they would pump no longer. Thevc were fifteen feel of water In hold and, as the ship was U) Ihi' wash which was sweeping the decks with each de-cent of the ship Into the depths between the waves, pumping wus simply a wasle of enemy that would le sorely net (led. "'1 he men say rigging must be cut.

ciiplaln," "It's no use lo try to save the ship." The caplaln saw lhat Ids struggle was useless. The ship was lis'tim: to sturbounl heavily, and each time a great wave thundered against the port side anil whirled tons of w'Ulcr over the f-hlp Mie tnrentened to turn over, for sink she toulil not, with thut cargo of lumber. Ho all haniIs went at the musts. AI M. IM) o'clock mainmast fell, bringing with it the lopmasl.

This mass falling upon Ihe deck smashed the pumps, broke awuy the bulwarks anil curried everything on deck wllh it us It disappeared lu the, iibyns. The I.mly Lisgurd wus now a mere bull, shorn of bulwarks und kyllghts nnd masts, except part of the ma.si. The nineteen human beings threw thorn- fclvcs Into the forecastle head and waited for dcnth. Some hished themselves, others clung with arms nnd legs uiouud ropes made fast to the ship's timbers. The hurricane wan Increasing lu wrath ciich moment, ami they began to fear that the ship would go lo pieces.

So wild was the wind that It shrieked over the ship like (he sereumliiL'of mighty steam whlslle, und (he waves ivcre (hundcr- liigaml roaring. And the nineteen Into the very fuce of deuth, hulf- drowncd. freezing, cold und hungry, shouted words of courage one to another and walled with that lust which not even such terrible dcspcrution und torture us this could drive out. This wus their situnUon all of Saturday, Nov. 11.

nil Saturday night and mull duyhrcilk Sunday morning. At dnwn Sunday morning the sky lo Ihc eastward brightened ullltlcanil the wind lifted anil Iho rain abated. One ot the men, looking Into this hopeful daybreak, Hiw like smoke. It wus not until hu luul looked und again that he shouted: A steiimcr! A blcnmer!" The ship was tin- Mohlcnn, bniind for New York from l.iverpo,)!. she hud been tolling 111 for several days.

Her cargo was light, anil she wus losscd about like a bladder blown out with air. Her Cuptuln, Henry Cook, made out the burk, now high on the peal; of a inounlaliious wave, now whirled deep down and fur over Into Ihe depths. He. al once resolved lo save the men who hail set the signals. He slopix-d the propellers and let Ihe steamer come down to within nlxint a mile.

Then be put heraltout as much as ho dared ami so waited for Ihc tempest to abate. Towards o'clock tlio wind .11.1 lessen, and, although the sea was still perilous beyond the courage of any but thu most during, Cnpl. Cook culled for volunteers, six men ut once cume forward. They were K. Dickens, the first officer; William Jeffries, (lie boatswain; Henry Carney, C.

An hour was spent lu repairs. Then oil was llirowu upon the water lu livvgo qimiilltlcs tn that the liout was just able lo be launched. Four of the six men went in this llrsl trip.

When tlm lifeboat got beyond the oil, ('apt. Cook regretted that ho had let thn men go. None ou the steamer over expected lo hoist them aboard iigaln, nnd tho nlnelecn wrelchcs in tlie foreeusllc bend, who hud raised a feeble cheer when Iho bout wax launched, felt that four more lives beside tholrowtl would be clullned by the temjicsl. As for the men In thn Ixml they could not turnback, so they roweil on, cxiieetlngdeath at the end of each slroke. The little lifeboat, like a wisp of straw In a cyclone, rose and plunged into the depths, but got in toward the hull of tho Lady Lisgiird.

Tho nearer they got the less chance they could see of rescuing anybody. But ut last they were within hailing distance, nnd then passed close under the stern of thu Norwegian and MI clung to her starboard fide. "JumpI" shouted tho men in tho boat. The IJitly Llngnrd was high above them. With tho settling wave she was descending.

1 lie men in the boiit could sco live men, separated from their fellows and ready to Jump one ut a time. One man crawled out to the edge nf tho bark, mid when bark und Unit were nearly level leaped lur out. The rising Ixmt cuught him und ho full exhausted In the midst of Ihe rescuing party. Hu falnlcd from the, sudden and happy ending of the strain. Tho boat nnd the bnrk continued to rise and fall, one now towering high above tho other and now looking up at It from the depths.

And ono by one the live men lumped, each landing in safety. When the flflh man hud Jumped Capt. Conk blew the steamer's whistle. was the signal to return. The hurricane wus rising again, and each moment's delay meant a lessoning of the already blender chance of getting back to tlio htoamer.

This building Is being erected ou the tin deru and hltherlu highly successful plan of skeleton construction.

In tills way of building the frame work of steel girders and columns Is put up tirst, forming the skeleton of the structure.

From the eighth story to the tonlli there were only lite bars girders and columns. The Department of Buildings us usual, very much In evidence all this lime, and Us Inspector had, presumably, FCCII all the Iron work as It was put up before the MIHIV covered It. He must have done so, fnr no building Inspector was ever known to ncgloct his duties. One Friday night, live weeks ago, according to the architect, a tcrrilie iv lnd blew. Tin; next morning thu building, from the lifth story up, was four or live Indies out of plumb, loan- Ing over to the west.

Then of liuildlngs exercised Its brilliant hindsight and demanded that be done. That something is now being done-. The linn which c.oiitincted for the Iron convtni'-tlon, John .1. of 21-1 Kast Thirty-seventh street, is now strengthening tho connections between the girders and the great Iron col- iminsby bracing them with huge angle Irons, und they and the architect say that the building will be absolutely rigid, and stronger limn ever when thut work is cnmj.leteil. (if course, the structure wus pulled back nnd forced Into plumb us monos the accident was discovered.

Mr. Selielllnger. the architect, hesitated lo about the mutter, but at lust said The natural thing for lo do Is to blame the architect In a case like this, and the architect Is held responsible for It nil. lint circumstances alter discs very much.

I was away In Chicago nnd bud been away some time when the unfortunate thing occurred. The contract forlhii Iron work was given logi.ol men, and naturally 1 expected that they would carefully follow tlie plans. The sice! and Iron came from New Jetw-y piecemeal ils It wus needed MI that an examination of It us It came showed no fuulls. I don-1 hesitate to say Una If the plans hud been followed the connections provided for by me between columns und girdc era would hnvn miiilo the structure satisfactory. If the girder) bud been connected rigidly with the columns, the strength would have ample.

The connections which I planned were of system of imglclrnns. The anglelrons iiswl WITH not of the called for nor were the necessary number of txilts used. The principle of construction was corrccl. The girders lire-JO Inches high and ulsMit-2V! feet long, and then; ure girders every twelve feel. connected with thn columns they would have braced thu structure pcrfecily.

"Ho you not consider Ihe building Inspectors very lux In allowing live stories logo up without discovering tin- defect In uskcd the reporter. said Mr. Schcllonger, I wouldli' blame the building inspectors. In the first iiiiice, they ure overcrowded wllh work, and in thu second place, the erection of these very modern skeleton- construcltoii buildings Mimetblng that not every building expert understands. It requires specialists," Other architects yesterday agreed that this was so, uii'l thut tho ordinary building Inspector was not always capable of HUpcrvlslim tliu erection of a modern high, narrow building.

In other words, the Inspectors couldn't Inspect. Klmball A Thompson, the architects, of No. llroudway, who urn putting up the huge building next to the Consolidated Kxchaiigo, mid that only engineers could tell whether a building of that nature was being erected properly. The World Is doing a piece ol work Inclining attention to tlie fact that thcfiuporvlslnu of such biilldlng.1 must be rigid," said they. "Up to lime only prominent architects and contractors have been engaged In the skeleton construction- business, a fact which was safeguard enough In Itself Ullt this style of building will all others, and any defect In construction Is of a much more serious nature than it would IH) In the ordinary building with largo foundations and of great bulk and weight.

The slightest fault may prove fatal. The principle is iiittgnincent anil perfect. Hut It cannot overcome carelessness In construction, and it is well to call attention to this The contractors stopped work on tho building alMut three weeks ago, but say that they will begin to put up the stone front at once, us the structure will lie absolutely perfect as soon as they got In all the braces, when the structure tixik Its cant to the west, the contractors say not a single brick or stone or Joist was wrenched out of place. Tho entire building leaned over. This, they said, Miowcd the excellence of the work, because hud It been really weak tho building would havo been pulled apart.

As it mis. they declare, thut eiicli pnrt remained fast io the other, and it was a simple matter to get It buck. They put shores and braces under the faulty parts and soon hud them restored to the perpendicular. Connecticut Insane Couviot at Largo.
