Mount Deiert With 450 Pas
sengers, Is Bammed By
Frnit Steamer.
today when the fruit steamer Ad
mlral Dewey, Inward bound from Ja
maica, crashed Into the steamer Mount
Desert, outward bound from Hay Ridge
for the fishing banks. The Admin:
Dewsy, coming suddenly out of a fog
bank, struck the Mount Desert almont
amlgshlp, opening a gash In ths fish
ing vessel that extended from the up
per deck to th« water's edge.
There were 450 passengers Including
twenty women and six children, on the
Mount Desert, and the Admiral Dewey
carried 45 passengers. In addition,
there were the crews of ths two steam
ers.
Panic Fellows Collision.
Panic Immediately followed the col
lision, and It was due to the prompt
teflon of Csp.tiiln Davidson of tbs
Dewey, that s catastrophe was avert
ed for the passengers on the fishing
steamer begun piling over the guard
rail of that vessel and leaped for the
deck of the Admiral Dewey. Had he
back' d his steamer away, many would
have fallen Into the water. Captain
Davidson kept the steamer moving
slowly ahead and thla held the prow
of tho fruit steamer Into the rent that
had been made, and afforded a board
ing place for the frightened passen
gers of the Mount Desert.
Thus the two steamers moved slowly
toward the east bank of tho lower
bay while a wild scene was taklna
place on the decks. It was believed
th* Mount Desert would sink find the
passengers fought frantically to get to
the deck of the Admiral Dewey. A
number of persona were sllghtlv In
jured In the stampede. Men and wo
men crowded over tha guard rails
onto the Admiral Dewey so rapidly
that they trampled upon each othgr.
In the space of fifteen minutes fully
StO of the passengers of the Mount
Desert sprang to the deck of the Ad
miral Dewey. l*y thla time tha Ad
miral Dewey had pushed the Mount
Desert dose to the east bank. The
Admiral Dewey drew more water than
had boon transferred ahd the panic
had subsided so Captain Davidson sig
naled to have the engines stopped, and
a few minutes later th# boats drifted
apart. Later tho Mount Deaert steam
ed to South Brooklyn where she dock*
dd to permit the rest or her passon<
gtrs go ashore. Meantime the Adm1r<
al Dewey had been taken up the river
to her pier where her own and the
passengers from th# Mount Desert
were landed.
WESTERN RAILROADS

CHICAGO. Nov. It—Th# attempt which
the western roods bars been making to
place all passenger business on a "
of a S-cent minimum rots on and
January 1 has failed. The questlm. __
put to a vet* of the lines west of Chi
cago and several negative votes were re
ceived yesterday. In addition to this the
lines which are Interested In hom
era* business got together and I
mended the same force for this
sees ext are In effect now.
Those two facts assure reduced rates
for special occasions In the entire west
during 1M9 Tho action of the western
roads was taken despite th* fact that
railroads having 40 per cent of the mile-
a In th# United Htates sustained a
of fully tlt.000.aoo during the pres
ent year on account of the 2-rent passen
ger fares. The homeeeeksrs* rate ar
ranged for yesterday will apply to all the
western, northwestern and southwestern
temfnry to which they have hlthi
piled and will be In force during
and February. The raf# will he
« ia*nalf fhreo for the round trip. It haa
rther been agreed that the committees
representing the various roads shall have
a meeting soon t«» work out the details
for homeseokera* rates to he In effect
during March and subsequent months.
Want Mere ColonlsU.
Homeaeekers' excursions wlU be run on
the first and third Tuesday* of th*
months as In past years. Th* decision of
the railroads was due to the fact that
many of ths roads are exceedingly desir
ous of continuing their colonisation work
by which they are annually pouring In
thousands of families upon vacant and
fertile lands In the west Thla work was
greatly retarded by the passage nt th*
anti-pass law and to place everything on
a fiat 2-rent basis would practically cause
a cessation of th* colonisation work.
Commissioner Fronty of the Interstate
commerce commission, suddenly adjourn
ed the session of th* commission which
he was holding Ml Chicago yesterday.
Tht# action wee taken that the commis
sion might meet In New York en Decem
