I 11 THE EVENING WORLD THURSDAY FE13RUAKY 25 1909 LINER DENIm BY SMASH INTO k1i GREATICE flOE Seams Opened Below the Furnesias Water Line but Passengers Were Not Told IjLL FELT THE CRASH i1 Ships Commander Kept Them i1f in Ignorance Even When Held Up by Fog The patsengers of the Anchor Line teamshlp Furnessla which docked today after being held up In the fog out I JI jIde the Hook for almost twentyfour i flhoure were sure last Friday night that they had bumped Into something about I substantial as the rock of Gibraltar i flbut fury did not lenrnjUiUI they were I jjfifiiafely ashore that the bump had dented aJin the bow plates of the esscl nnd ij il opened several seams just below the water line Capt Lunsdane kept this fact carefully concealed from the passengers as he did not believe In needlessly alarming them They were nervous enough as It 4 was when on Friday morning the Fur nesla ran Into a great field of Ice and I began ploughing through It with bulldog pertinacity of a Baltic tug Like Artlc Regions i It looked a whole lot like the regions of the North Pole that vast field of Ice which stretched out to the hither and nether horizons And here nnd there and everywhere were baby bergs Not really dangerous bergs from the looks of their stunted pinnacles and mInarets I but as It proved there was one of them i that drew a mile or to of water If It did i have a Hat top At least that was the gues of some of tile seventythree second cabin and 21S steerage passengers I All day Friday the Furnessla ploughed through the Ice doe and there Jhvere a good many minor bumps and faint Impacts When night fell tho ocean looked like an endless expanse ftof frosted mirror with Its bosom of pice rising and tailing sluggishly I The bump came about 10 oclock The jar trembled through the ship nnd cast ta good many things off centre For a tjwhlle the vessel stood still with Its I propellers churning and ripping at tons not Ice Then there was a lurch and a smooth swishing noise after which the i iteamshlp ploughed ahead as before No Panic Among Passengers There was a scurrying about of the I jfrcrcw and a few sharp orders from tho bridge Then quiet There was no i panlo among the pascengois and the 3 few of them that nslted questions ro 1 cclved laughing replies from the officers But on Saturday morning said 1 James McLewy of 1anrtekshlre Scotland i one of the pesel ers on landing I itoday 1 saw water beIng pumped out I lijof the bow and knew that we had i sprung a leak somewhere I The crew were chose as clams about giving any Information and as they I seemed perfectly cheerful about It no i one did a great deal of worrying We got out of the Ice floes on Saturday and went away at our usual gait In No Danger He Says Capt Lunsdane said that there really Jhadnt been any danger Ills log showed that In latitude 4716 longitude 4J97 the Furnessla had run into a field Lot Ice The vessel had made fairly good iCheadway through the Ice all day jnd seemed to be breaking out of the floes rtt 10 oclock at night when there was va severe bump I I sent one of the engineers Into the I i jforepeak to see If any damage had been done said the Furnesslas skIpper iVnnd he reported that whatever we lad i 1 struck had opened some of the seann at the waterline Ve changed our course fto the southard then BO as to escape from that Ice pack and before morning we were pretty well clear of It No i we didnt have to use the pumpsat least not bicau of the little opening 11n the seams of the bow That must have been a whaling big cake of Ice 1 though to dent us the way It did It After the FurnesMa had docked an ftexamination was made of the damaged vbow It was reported then that repairs 1 could be mad at the pier as the Injury Xwas not serious enough to necessitate going Into drydock 4 OAKLAND ENTRIES If OAKLAND Cal Feb SThe entries ijpfor tomorrow follow I FinST RACK Futurity court ell IngHosamo 115 GilMnl 112 Ulam Ids 112 Ace of Diamond I Warn boro

the wage of JdOCO employee of tho United States Steel Corporation will be cut on or about April 1 was the Unequivocal statement made today by a man who has Intimate sources of Information The decision to reduce wages at this early date was reached within the past few days at one of the dally conferences of the Steel magnates Meantime every effort will be made to conciliate the men who will suffer by the wage cut and thus forestall what would bo one of the greatest strikes that has over affected American Industries It was explained to the Eevenlng Worlds Informant that the Steel people have decided not to wait for Confrrws to decide on A reduction of the tariff on Steel as advised by Andrew Carnegie but to take the bull by tho horns before the national law makers have reached a decision That Is the heads of the Steel Trust will act on the foregone conclusion that the tariff will be shaved and shape their course accordingly Every hour even days delay In the adjusting of the affairs of such a vast corporation Is vitally Important wherefore the directors of the United States Steel Corporation have concluded that they cannot afford to wait for Congress to act It Is hoped thin It will not be necessary to cut wages all along the line For Instance the price of steel rails fZS a ton wlllnot be changed i consequently It possible that the men employed In tho mills where tied rails are made will not suffer a cut In wages This undoubtedly would raIse a howl among the workers In other mills whose output was affected by the cut In prices and whose wages were therefore reduced These matters will all be gone Into at great length and there will be many conferences with labor leader and committees appointed by the workers In tho various mills Just hOlT many of the steel workers are organized It unknown even to the Steel magnates themselves I Statements have been made to he ef1 fMt that only per cent of the employees of the United Stales Steel Corporation are really organized Into a union Labor men however say that such an estimate 1s ridiculous and predict that when the time comes for the organ ized steel workers to show their hand It will be found that a majority of tho IMOOOO of them have a pretty thorough organization Furthermore In view of the present crisis the labor leaders are getting busy i to solidify the entire lody of men Into i an organization that can lift a power ful volc of protest against a reduction nf wages The men engaged In this work are going about It openly too 10 aii to enable the Steel magnates to call upon them for advice as to the exact status of the labor situation When It was first thought advisable to delay the cut In wages until May 1 the suggestion was offered that this further delay would only give the men more time In which to prepare for a strike that Is It would give the agitators more time to stir the men up The less time they were given for this the less discontent they would be able to arouse Steel worker have been pretty generally regarded since the last big strike eight years ago as a contented lot of men Generally their wages were pretty high and as a great body of tollers they were prosperous Then their work was steady and dependable If It can be shown to them now that their wage reduction will be only temporary and that It will be a compara tlely Insignificant reduction after all It Is likely that a strike will be averted The very possibility of one however has shaken the financial world knocked I the prop out from under the stock market and caused a great flurry on the exchanges abroad This fact alone reveals how rcftlly strenuous Is the situation 1 PHOTO THROUGH A STOVE liD BYI URAOIOTHOR 11 New Discovery Has All Power of Radium on Diseases Without Baneful Effects NEW ORLEANS Feb IVAt last
