Kerr. which was sunk off the coast on Saturday nisht by the OW! Dominion liner Hamilton, hound south. Cap tain Redmond of the Kerr Bald that she saile.l from this port on June 11. and was on her way ba^k with a load of bluefisli when she was struck. He added: U'o were coming north In a fog under full s:i!l ■/ben the collision took place. It was all <lorn- In 11 minute -md without warning. We beard two whistles, and a moment later the bow of the Hamil ton li.omed up out of the fog. The bow of the steamship crashed into the schooner just forward of the fore rigging on the port side. Many "t us were about, but some of the men were in the cabin when the crash came. All rushed across the deck, and as soon a- we realized wlut had happened we clambered up tho side of the Hamilton to the deck. The two vessels remained together some tim. — long enough for us all to n< ;on board the * > l«l Dominion liner— and then she pulled away fr"in the Kerr. I requested Captain Boaz of the Hamilton to lower a i><>at to take me to the sinking vessel. n»- 'iid bo, and llie mate and 1 went out !>• h--r to Pee whether anything could be When we got"to her we hail to push off .main, for she was sinking, and be fore we pot back to ihe steamship she went down In eleven fathoms of water. We were iaki-n into Norfolk nnd came North on the Jamestown. Since my arrival here 1 have bad a talk with the superintendent of the <>M Dominion Line as to a settlement for the loss of my schoon< r On his action depends whether I will proceed for damages against tin- company. At tho time my vessel was struck we were three-fourths of a mil«» off North End Lightship, coming this way. The Hamilton was out of her course, as she should have been south of the lipht. Another thine l can'i un derstand Is the fact that the captain of the steam ship says tint lii never heard us blow. Why. our horn was going almost continually. The K.-iT was owned by John Feeney and Captain Redmond. She was a two muster. 90 feet lonir and 20 beam. She was built In ISB9. Her crew lost all their belongings and had to buy clothes in which to come North. COMMANDER DELEHANTY'B ORDER CAPTAIN NORTON. HIS OLD ENEMY. WRITES THE PRESIDENT ABOTT HIM. It was said aa;ain yesterday that Commander Daniel Delehanty, U. S. N.. who Is governor of the Sailor's Shuk Harbor, and hap Just been ordered to China for se;i service, would probably resign from the Navy. "He must go to sea or resign." said Captain George L. Norton, the Editor "f "The Marine Jour nal" and ar. ex-trustee of the Sailor's Snut; Harbor, who has always been opposed to Governor Dele hanty, because the latter is a naval officer, and the Sailor's Suns Harbor. Captain Norton says, was intended for the merchant marine. "He ''ail escape these sea orders only by resign ing. If he resigns he loses the half pay which would come to him upon his regular retirement from the Navy a short time hence, because of passing the age limit. He was anxious to secure that for the rest of his life, in addition to his sal ary as governor of the Sailor's Snug Harbor. If he dors not resign he must go to sea and a rnor of the Snug Harbor. He Is In a sort of li corner, you si c." Governor Delehanty's friends on thr> Board of Tr istees of the Sailor's Snug Harbor are. making strenuous efforts to retain him as governor. Cap tain Norton, as a counter mo\ c. has written to President McKlnley about 'ru- matter. "I told the President the facts r.f the case, with out prejudice," he said, "an-1 J have received an answer, s<iy>nK that my letter lias been turned ov.'r to the Secretary of the Navy." Meanwhile, Commander Delehanty continues as governor of the Sailor's Snug Harbor, and the question of his future is still undecided. Captain Norton save that Commander Delehanty's orders to gro to China were noi inspired by any one, so far as he knows. BUILDING TRADES TROUBLE SETTLED NEW ORGANIZATION TO v,v.

' * v FIRE CBAPLAIXB FOR LOXnOS. ENGLISH VISITORS WILL ASK THE COUNTY COUN CIL TO FOLLOW NEW- YORK. Eugene Stock, a prominent resident of London, who is at No. 257 Fourth-aye.. has written to Fire Commissioner Scannell as follows: As an Englishman who has bern vlslttns the United States In company with my friend George Anthony King, also of London, I should like to be allowed to say to you how greatly we have been Interested in the New-York Fire Brigade. We have been kindly shown something of its work by the Rev. Dr. J. Le Baron Johnson, one .if your chaplains, and have been much lm pressed by the splendid efficiency of the officers and men. ami the perfect order and discipline which seem to be maintained. Mr. King and I are greatly struck by your plan of commissioning two clergymen as chaplains to the brigade, and it is our purpose on return ing to England to use our influence to have the Lon don County Council make some similar arrange ment. It must be no small encouragement to the firemen to feel that they have friends of this kind who will care for them in case of accident or sick ness, and show kindness to their families in the time of need; and the men must value the prompt ness with which the chaplains— as it seems to me— are at their service day and night, and the fear lessness with which they sometimes share the perils of their calling. I hope that in time the good example which New-York has set will be fol lowed in my own country. COXTROLLER XOT COMPELLED TO r.iT. CONTRACTOR WHO VIOLATED WAGE LAW CAN NOT COLLECT FROM CITY. Justice Leventrltt. In th>. Supremo Court, yester day handed down a decision refusing to grant William R. Rodsrers a writ of mandamus direct ing Controller Coler to pay him the amount due him on a cily contract for paving. The Controller refused to pay Rodpers because a complaint was filed with him to the effect that Rodgers had not paid the prevailing rate of wages, as he bound himself to <1o by the terms of his contract. Rodgers alleged that while the provision of the prevailing rate of wages might be held to apply to Immediate contractors with the city It could not apply to sub-contractors, of whom he was one. He admitted he had not paid the union rate of wages. Justice Leventrltt says It is as little a matter of dispute that the Legislature or Government may determine the amount of wages to be paid by a municipality to those In its employ as It Is clear that in the absence of considerations of public health, morals and safety it has that power to prescribe terms between individual employer and employe. Justice Leventritt pays the provision In the con tract by which reiator bound himself to pay the prevailing rate of wages, or that his contract should 1"* void, effectually debars his right to a writ tv c<.mp>'l payment by the Controller. Rodgers. if he has finished his contract, is thus left without any payment, while his employes will have suits against the city. XEELI CASE ADJOrR\ED \GATX. XKXT MOVE -WIT.T.

It is understood that Neely's counsel. John D. Lindsay, will make no move In the case -until after the Government takes some definite step for the • r'a removal. The proceedings under the original request for Neely't extradition made by C.ivcrnor-OJeneral Wood noon Governor Roosevelt will undoubtedly be discontinued. Neely. in the mean time, is in the Ltidlow Street Jail. Where he remains In default of the $50,000 bail required of him upon his second arrest for al leged complicity in the Cuban postal frauds.
