OF HER TBlAIfl AM' TRIFil'LATTONS AT
8EA-ISTATEMF.XTS OF THK OFKICKr S
-JOY OB FRIEN'1>8 AND CREW.
The triumphant arrivn! of La Gascogne at
her pier yeaterday after her long battle wlth the
wlnda and wavaa waa like the coming of a con
queror. Her tnachlnery had broken down and
she had encountered the worat weather known
for yeara on tho North Atlantlc. But the great
i-hlp had overcome all QbBtBCiBB and br night her
pauaaaaaakra, her crew and her cargo safe to port.
.^he will be ready to g.. out ngaln a week fPotfl
to-day, as well equipped as aba was before her
accldent, to battle wlth wlnds and waves. Tke
broken platon-md will be replaced by a new one,
and in a few days the long voyage of Ijb. Gas
cogne. wlth all Ihe anxlety whlch her non-arrival
at thlB port caused. wll. have faded from the
minds of moat people and be only a reminlscence
of the oea. to be ealled up when some other great
aensation Ib furnished by the orean.
There was a acene of excitement BUCb as has
aeldom. If ever. been wltnessed on a North Rlrer
pier before when La Gascogne rame up to her
pier yesterday morning. A crow.l of fully 2.0D0
people waa assembled on and about ihe |>ler.
At 10 o'clock the bulkheada. ptera and the decka
of steam'era at plers ln the vMnlty. anl tha win
dOfra and houee-toj.s along West-st.. opposite the
French pier. were black wlth people. An extra
force of pollcemen kept a passageway open
leadlng to the pier. Through thla passageway
about 1,000 people with passes made thelr way
10 the pier. The end of the pier was BOOC a soliu
mass of humanitv. Nearly all were frlends or
reUtlves of the people on board the ship. The
whole French oolony seemed to be there. Women
nnd thelr eaoorta .ilmbed upon boxes of mer
?haniise and secured places from whlch they
could get a good vlew of the long-oxpeeted
steamer.
CHEERS FOR THE STEAMER.
lt was Just 10:50 o'clock when the crowd on the
end of the pier cent out a cheer that announced
the arrtval of the shlp. Those inside the dock
ahed took up anl repeato.l the cheer, although
they could not aee anythlng save a sea of heads
wlth sllk hats and plumed bonnets in front of
:h?\n.
The crowd whlch by that time had filled the
llg space ln front of the pier took up the cheer.
When at last the waitlng ones saw the black
hull and tall funnela of the llner through the
fog of tugboat steam they began shouting and
wavlng thelr arms
The fortunate ones who were ?n the pier were
frantic with excitement when the blg boat
liomed up at the end of the pier. The three tugs
whose proffers vt assistance had been decllned
all the way up the bay were permltted to take
llnea and warp the shlp Into her berth. Then the
crowd on the end of the pier made a wlld scram
ble for places at the mlddle gangway. Pretty
girlB cllmbe-d upon boxes and stood tler upon
tler untll the place wae like an improvlaed am
phltheatre. A nun with a blg ?ilk Amerlcan
flag mounted the hlghest boxee. and. wavlng the
flag. led the cheerlng aa the shlp waa Bwung In.
lt waa 11:30 when ahe waa ln place. Captaln
Faudelon stood by the gangway on the maln
rjeck and ga\e his orders. The crowd halle-d
him wlth three ch?era, and then some one aak?d:
"What ls ihe matter wlth Baudelon?"
There wan a mlghty raaaaaiMaj of "He's all
rtght:"
The gangplank was l/i place at 11:40. and the
Captaln hlmself was the flret man to land He
was enveloped in a blg ftir-lined coat and wore a
fur cap. He recelved cheer after cheer as he
walked to the pier. After him came the passen
ajtrg, and the scene when they met their frtooda
waitlng for them was like an emotlonal drama.
Th* Vtaael came tip the Bay eauBjled by a flottl
la of tugs at about 10 o'clock. The Ice ln the
Xarmwa reached from sh->re t<> eh"re, and tbe
1 iiK--1elayed liner loomed up, high-slded and red
funnelhrd. In the mldst of the grindlng lep eakam
The Health i ffi.-.-r l.oailcd tbe *hlp. wlth DtpV
tjaa Sanb >rn and L'Hommedleu, in order to clear
h'T with the slightest pos#lble delay. A. Forget
waa alongalde ]n a tug. and went on board to
ahake Captaln BaodaloB by the hand.
BOOM CI/KAR OF QIARANTINE.
La QageoajBf was clear of (Juarantlne inslde of
ten minutes after the Health offteers arrlved on
All the way up the bay the steamer was
graetad with a ? lioraa of stcim arMatlea from tugs
and steamer?.
i'aptain Haudeim made the follOWlBg offlclal
statement to Mr. Forget regarding the accldent
which had Majrad his ship:
' in the thlrd dav of our eoraga we broke the
I'iaton rod. We l?o)ated one of the < yllndera. and
contlnued OB OUr voyage with a speel of eleveti
knots, but ihe crank-shaft gradually got heated and
we carne down t<. atwiut nine knota
? in February 4 and S we had to change the l.ear
lngs of the crank-shaft. Imrlng that tlme we had
a l.urrlcane, and the harometer wenr down to
7:26 0|5j
Slnce then the a"a haa been very heavy, wlth hlgh
weat wlnds, and we were oMlged to alow down to
.-? t-.<? ii? eiuhi knots an hour.
The crank-shiift waa then runnlng all rlght. We

or ihe other.
Yeaterdav only could we algnal some BCjwa to a

A lolph Martln. the chief englneer of La Oas
I gne, has been wlth the Fren'-h Ltaa for thirty
tWO yrars, and for ftftaafl years he has been chief
engltit-er. He said, ln regard to the acidetit:
The engln.-a of La 'lascogne are of the trlj.l.-ex

The plston-rod broke ln the rentre of the ryllnder,
where weooald not get at it to repalr it. and aboul
