2 THE I’NDIXE LAID AT REST. | The Wrecked Austrian Bark Pal Away lor Good. An Undertaking Three Timeß Aban doned and Finally Accomplished. The Old Hnlk no Longer an Ob struction. but Serving a Useful Pur pose in the Harbor Improvement. Mr. Charles W. Johnston, of Johnston & Townsend, of Somers Point. New Jer sey, yesterday practically finished the work of removing the bark Undine from the channel near Long Island, where it capsized and sunk on February 26. last, while being towed from the quarantine ataiion to the city. The remains of what was. only a little more than six months ago, a handsome bark, are now lying in Back river near the end of the Fig island training wall. On Saturday night Mr. Johnston hail the Undine towed to the point indicated by Capt. Carter, and there scuttled her, it being found impracticable to deliver her at any wharf in the city for the ptirpo.se of selling her at auction, on account of there being at least fifteen feet of solid mud in the hold. The contract between Capt. O. M. Car ter and Messrs. Johnston & Townsend stipulated that all parts of the wreck re moved, including the cargo and other property which might prove of any value, were to be delivered at some convenient point on the shore. If of no value they were to be placed at a point, designated by Capt. Carter, where they would form no obstruction to navigation. The con tractor was at libertv. if he felt so dis posed, to blow the hull to pieces by ex plosives and remove the wreckage to the marshes by the aid of lighters. TUB FIRST JOB 7.ET. April 11 a contract for raising the Un dine was awarded by the Austrian consul to Cooley & Brown for $3,000 After working ten or twelve day s on the job and spending SI,OOO those gentlemen gave up the task as being an impossible one. April 23 the vessel was sold at auction and was purchased by Mr. F. M. Jones, who announced his intention of raising her. He made strong efforts to do this bv battering down the hatches and stop ping up all the openings he could reach, but when he attempted to raise the ves sel, after pumping out some of the water, he found the job a hopeless one and be yond the capacity of his plant. When Mr. Jones abandoned the work Capt. Carter invited proposals for remov ing the hull from the river, as it was a dangerous obstruction to navigation. When the bids were opened on June 17 Messrs. Johnston St Townsend were found to be the lowest bidders, and the contract was awarded to them for $3,645. They competed against the Merritt Wrecking Company and the Chapman Derrick and Wrecking Company, two of the most powerful wrecking organiza tions on the coast, and several others. Messrs. Jacobson & Morris, a local firm, hid $4,300. Mr. Johnston announced his intention of removing the Undine from the channel intact, but in view of the failure of the two previous contractors to do this, it was freely predicted that he would not succeed, and his undertaking was care fully watched by steamboat anil river men. THE WORK COMMENCED. Actual work was begun on July 31st, and a careful examination made by a diver that day showed that 4 hatches, 3 companion ways, 3 hollow iron masts, 3 dead lights, 2 ventilators, 2 skylights, 2 stove-pijie holes, 2 hawser pipe holes and many other smaller openings had to he made water tight before the work of pumping out the water could begin. This was a task of no mean difficulty, but through the care and skill exercised by Diver Ross, whose work was performed entirely under water, was successfully accomplished. The oj>onings were cov ered over with tarpaulins and timber, securely fastened by spikes. On account of the frequent squalls and heavy northeast winds encountered the work of the dive r was much retarded, hut on August 12 was so much advanced that pumping by the tugboats Cambria and Forest City began. After the pumping had proceeded for some time and no ap preciable gain being made. an examina tion was made by the diver, who dis covered anew hole, altout 4 feet by 4 feet in dimensions, througn which the water poured as fast as it was drawn out through the ten-inch pump. This hole was closed and the pumping was resum ed. and on August the Hnh the contrac or and the steamboat men had the proud satisfaction of having their arduous and intelligent labor rewarded. One of the men of Capt. Johnston's party, as the un drive slowly moved from her muddy bod where she lay imbedded for nearly six months, like Silas Wogg, dropped into poetry and shouted. She starts, she moves, she seem to feel The thrill of life along her keel. TOWEII OUT OF THE CHANNEL. The Undine was then towed out of the channel, safe from contact with passing vessels, but Capt. Carter, not deeming the spot selected to be safe, and to put tlie vessel in a position where she could do no harm in the future, designated a berth behind the Pig island Jetty for her to re main forever undisturbed, and she was towed there last Saturday night, scuttled ami sunk. So firmly is she imbedded at that point that the hurricane of Sunday night failed to dislodge her an inch: but to make assurance doubly sure. Capt. Carter has directed that piling be driven all around her, thus making it impossible for her to be driven away by the fiercest of storms. Mr. Johnston has successfully removed many wrecks from this harbor and vicin ity. but without doubt the raising of the Undine was the most difficult task of this kind ever undertaken by him in south ern waters Taking into consideration the fact that two unsuccessful attempts to raise her had been made by local firms, after an expenditure of several thousand dollars, extending over a period of sev eral weeks, and the further fact that mud was daily entering the hull, adding to its weight and making the task of raising it more and more difficult as the days wore on, Mr. Johnson's determination to raise the vessel intact and not to break her up by tlie use of dynamite was considered foolhardy and not feasible, but subse quent events justified the faith he had in his plan. AN ARDUOUS UNDERTAKING. To Mr. Iloss. the diver, and to Mr. Pur dee, the engineer of the Fores’ City, great credit is due for the determined and intelligent manner in which they per formed the share of the work allotted to them, till* latter stieking to tlie pumps night and day until the Uudme was floated and finally placed in a secure posi tion Mr. Johnston and incidentally tlie Propeller Towboat Company, cannot be too highly commended on the successful - accomplishment of this piece of work’ and the removal from the chaunel of a dan gerous menace to navigation. During the progress of the work not an accident of any kind occurred, no loss ol proper„y was suffered, and no valuables of any kmu were recovered from the wreck, most of tlie fragile articles being broken iuto fragments and small portable objects be ing buried in the mud in the hold. The Undine was 183.7 feet in length, 85 4 feet in breadth, and drew 19.6 teet She was a composite vessel and was al most as heavy as though built entirely of . steel. She was built iu England in I si;,', and shortly before sailing for this country was insured for £4,000. NAVAL UP. A Difficulty Between the Exporters and the Railroads. A meeting of the member* of the board of trade was called yesterday to appoint a committee to confer with the Central and Savannah. Florida and Western rail roads. regarding the disposition of the naval stores which is scattered about the wharves. The following gentlemen were appointed on the committee: Messrs. Walter Coney, James Farie. Jr., S. I*. Shottor and Capt. C. Schwarz, from among the buyers, and Messrs. John R Young, and L. McNeill from among the factors. The committee held a meeting at the board of trade yesterday afternoon to dis cuss the situation and report the results of their conference with the railroad offi cials After talking over the matter for an hour the meeting adjourned to meet again at 10 o'clock this morning, at which time a full report will be presented, as it was impossible to pain any information yes terday, the proper railroad officials not be ing in the city. The main object of the meeting of the naval stores men is to try and get tiosses sion of their stocks or to receive damages for losses attending the handling of it. The railroads refused to allow the owners to select their stock from the wharves, and there will probably be a great loss, especially in spirits tur|>entine. as the in tense heat of the sun causes the hoops on the-barrols to burst and allows the con tents to run out and waste. Almost the entire stock of naval stores on the wharves is owned by the export ers, and it is they who are particularly interested in saving as much of the stock as possible. The factors are interested, as the loss would be compared with consumption and would have the effect of increasing values in the future market, The great damage, and loss will, however, fall hard on the exporters, as there are a number of ves sels already chartered, which are in port and to arrive to take cargoes to Europe. The railroads are. in the meantime, doing all they can to straighten out the stock at the wharves. The meeting to be held to-day will probably decide what is to bo done about the matter. The stoek of rosin on hand is in the neighborhood of 150,000 barrels and of spirits about 32,000 barrels, a good deal of which is mixeiTup so that it is with difficulty that it can be straightened out and got in the right hands. TROLLEY CARS COLLIDE. An Abercorn Street Car and a St. Julian Car Bang Together. The electric cars on the Electric railway and the City and Suburban rail way collided at the crossing of the two lines at Abercorn and St. Julian streets yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock. Car No. 24 of the Electric railway was going west on St. Julian street at full speed when ear No. 10 of the City and Suburban railway appeared going south on Abercorn street, also at full speed. The latter road has the right of way. The motorman of the electric car put on brakes and reversed his motor, but the track being slippery on account of the number of leaves ground to pieces on thorn during the day the speed of the car carried it straight ahead. The motorman of the Abercorn car, expecting the other ear to stop, did not hold up until the cars were almost together, when he put on brakes and reversed his motor. The ears came together with considerable force. The Electric car was knocked from the track and the force of the shock threw two other cars off the track. Each car had several passengers, who received a good shaking up, but only one injury was reported, that of a lady, whose arm was severely wrenched. The ears were not damaged to any ex tent. The track was blocked about an hour, passengers being transferred around the wreck. WHEN WEARY AND LANGUID, Use Horsford’s Acid Phosphate.

The Firm of Dryiuß & Rich Announ ces Its Insolvency. The firm of Dryfus & Rich, wholesale dealers in liquors, wines, cigars and to baccos, on Congress street, near the mar ket, made an assignment yesterday, and tiled the record of its assets and liabili ties with the superior court.

The firm alleges its insolvency in its ap plication to the court. The total assets, which are about two-thirds of the liabil ities, are $10,273.11, of which $0,047.98 is the value of their stock, and the balance is in accounts. Their total liabilities amout to $15,705.74. Judge MacDonell yesterday overruled a motion for new trial in the case of Paul Days vs. M. J. Doyle. Days is the man who was moved out of a house by Doyle and the jury gave him S7OO damages. The Roebe alimony case will be con tinued in the superior court this morning. FUNERAL OF MRS. HENDERSON. Laid to Rest Beneath the Oaks of Laurel Grove. The, funeral of Mrs. Eliza Henderson who died last Thursday evening and which was to have taken place Sunday afternoon, but was postponed on account of the storm, took place from Laurel Grove cemetery yesterday morning at to o’clock and was largely attended by friends of the deceased. The floral tributes were beautiful and expressive of the esteem in which sho was held. The services were conducted by Rev. Mr. Kimball. The children of the Episcopal Orphan’s Home sung the beautiful and touching hymn “fx-ad Kindly Light" and other favorite hymns of the deceased, while all that was mortal of a s.veet, de voted and sxlf-sacriliciug mother and a pure, consistent Christian was laid away.

The Charleston and Savannah railway officials could give n<i information as to wneu they would be aide to send out a train. He determined to take the train on the South Carolina railway, leaving at 0:40 o'clock yesterday morning, in the hope of getting a train to Savannah by the South Bound at Den mark. He was disappointed in this, and so kept on to Augusta, where he arrived aliout noon. He left Augusta by the Cen tral! railway at 2:30 o'clock and arrived in Savannah at 6:20 o'clock last night. NOT AS GREAT AS RELIEVED TO BE. lie says while the damage in Charles ton is great it is not so great as it is gen erally believed to be. Hundreds of houses in the city were unroofed and many houses had their fronts blown off. The greatest damage is at the battery, every wharf on the river front being tom away and the buildings in that section generally wrecked. The water did not come up into the city at all. except in the neighborhood of the battery and in the lower portions of the town. The severest portion of the storm, Mr. Strauss said, was between midnight and 2 o'clock Monday morning. The St. Charles hotel shook to its foundations and the guests thought every minute the building,was coming down on their heads. Storm Notes. The Georgia Hussars, in returning from Bonaventure cemetery yesterday after noon, had to jump their horses onto one end of the bridge and jump them off the other. The Shell Road Company should have the bridge put back in its position without further delay, or stop taking toll until it does. Henry Anibos of Thunderbolt, who was injured the night of the storm, is out again. A schooner is up on the Warsaw wharf at Thunderbolt. The dance slit J in Bonaventure Grove is wrecked. Capt. W. T. Daniels, Jr., and T. H. Brown, contractor, went down the river yesterday toexamine the pilot bo it Belie, to see how she can be gotten of McQueen's island. The county commissioners should re pair the bridge across Isle of Hope cause way at once. People are getting tired of ‘•skinning the cat’’ across the railroad bridge. Don’t wait, Messrs. Commission ers. until plans are drawn for anew bridge; the old one is better than none. At Wilmington Island not a single building was harmed by the storm. The only damage done was a small portion of fence blown down. The wharf was in jured by the heavy sea. Tlie weather bureau reports of the storm at Charleston put the maximum velocity of the wind at 72 miles per hour from the northeast Sunday, and Sunday night 06 miles per hour from the east. Monday morning a maximum velocity of 68 miles per hour from the south was re corded. The total rainfall for the twenty four hours ending ut 8 o’clock Monday morning was 3.80 inches. The British steamship Mara, Captain Jenkins, and the Spanish steamship Pe layo. Captain Baldo, arrived at quaran tine last night. They were released from the national quarantine station at Sapelo on Sunday, hut were detained on account of the storm. The Pelayo is from Sagua, from whence she sailed on Aug. 5, ar riving at Tybec about two weeks ago, and was sent to Sapelo to be detained anil disinfected. The Mara arrived at the quarantine station from Demerara, on Aug. 15, and after remaining several days was sent to Sapelo, a case of small pox haring developed on board. The pa tient has recovered and the vessel was inspected and thoroughly disinfected be fore being released from Sapelo quaran tine. The “flotsams and jetsams" of the storm continue to float in. If all the per sonal experiences of that eventful night could be gathered, it would fill a library full of books. There is no place that lias not had its haps and mishaps, but princi pally the latter. The occupants of Mr. J. G. Butler's house at Tybce were rescued by Messrs. Henry and Charles Green during the storm. Their own house was burning, but they saw the danger threatening Mr. Bntier's residence, as it was more exposed than any house in Beacon pond, and went to the rescue, swimming part of the way, and carried Mrs. Butler and others to places of safety. The house soon after collapsed anil was swept away. The entire population living in the lower part of Beaufort county, S. C., has been ordered out to repair roads and bridges, and in a few days the country will he open to travel. Just now no one ' can go very far from homo unless they go in boats. The steamship City of Augusta did not leave last night, but will this morning. Capt. Daggett, in view of the fact that the river and bar buoys are out of place and a number of the lights goue, thought it best to go out in daylight. The Best in the World. Senator Henry C. Nelson, of New York, writes: “On the 27th of February, 188;}, I was taken with a violent pain in the re gion of the kidneys. I suffered such agony that! could hardly stand up. As soon as possible 1 applied two Allcock’s Porous Plasters, one over each kidney, and laid down. In an hour, to my surprise and delight, the pain had vanished and I was well. I wore the plasters for a day or two as a precaution, and then removed them. 1 have been using Allcock’s Porocs Plasters in my family for the last ten years, and have always found them the quickest and best remedy for colds, strains and rheumatic affections. From my experience 1 believe they are the best plasters in the world.”—ad LITTLE DIXIES WIN. They Defeat the Heavy Hitters ia to 8.
