Holt of the steam tug Qeorco Simpson ar
rived In this city from Delaware Breakwater
late this afternoon His boat was sunk In the
storm on Sunday night and it had been re
ported that the Captain his wife nnd the crew
cad been drowned Copt Holt who left Lewes
by train yesterday morning was seen by your
correspondent tonight He had his hand ban
daged and was badly cut about the taco and
was suffering from his terrible exposure
On Sunday night said ho the steam tug
Lizzie Crawford the wrecking tugs Tames
and the George O Simpson were tied up to tho
steamboat pier at the Breakwater At about 1
oclock the wind began to blow hard from the
northwest and the rain fell in torrents Sud
denly It ehllted to tbo southwest and blew a
hurricane Both tho Crawford and Simpson
wanted to get away from the pier but it was
impossible for either of the boats to move on
account of the position ot tho Tames which
could not stir as it had no steam Both boats
had fenders out but the wind kept
driving us against the pier The eea
was running very high and washing
over the upper decks Two of my crow watched
their chance and jumped to the pier They hud
hardly got ashore when 0 big wave dashed
against us and forced the Crawford clear
through the pier The heavy pies wero snapped
otf like pipe stems and the heavy timbers fell
on the deck The men all rushed on deck and
the fireman of tho Crawford fell overboard
The engineer immediately jumped Into the
water to save him Both men were thrown on
the beach by the waves and saved The Craw
ford won left without engineer or fireman and
apt Kane headed his boat for tho bench A
big wave struck her before she could be turned
and she was swamped The Captain and the
rest of the crew were washed ashore te
When the Crawford went through the pier
we slipped our lines and started t back out
Our decks were filled with timbers from out
pier and wo were leaking badly We backed
away from the pier and let go one ot our
anchors and thirty fathoms of chain but we
were tossed about and kept drifting toward

kept the pumps at work but the water gained
on W Tben Ole of the steam pipes burst and
the pump would not work any longer The sea
was running high and It looked as though
there was no hope for UR The tug Protector
commanded by William Mimford was lying
at anchor near the stone pier We drifted
toward her and Copt Mimford shouted to
us t throw h a lie It was a
dangerous thing for the Protector and
Copt Mimford knew it but It was the
only chance we bad for onr lives A line was
le
thrown t him and it was made fast to the
starboard Iide Mrs Holt was the first to get
oft hatching her chance she jumped to the
deck of the Protector and was caught in the
arms of Capt Mimford and the engineer Mr
lloblnsonond tbedeek hands followed her and
landed safely The waves kept running higher
and when I jumped they were running as high
as a threestory house I remember jump
log and thats all I do remember When
I came t myself I was lying in the
cabin and all hands were rubbing me and
trying fore medicine down my throat I
baa fallen t the deck and struck my head on
one of the stanchions and cut I open Every
except my wife thought I was dead and
they tell me I was unconscious for hal an
hour When I regained my senses the Simp
rlae
son was at the bottom the bay In six fathoms
of water and her d k had been washed
away When the storm abated on Tuesday we
were landed at the Iron pier and walked two
nUuto Lewes We had been reported lost
and the town wont wild over us when they
found that we were safe
N After we landed I had a chance to see what
the storm bad done Three bodies were washed
ashore and twentyseven men are in the hos
pital with frozen limbs Two lohooner were
funk trnty vessels are ashore along the
beach and twentyfive ore lying Inside of the
tone piles with signals of distress flying An
unknown tug and a big coal barge are ashore
unOm
on the Hen and Chickens shoal just outside
The wrecking tug Tames was forced through
the outer end of the pier after we had backed
away and went ashore about half a mile from
the pier The steamboat pier was torn away
and the beach is strewn with wreckage The
tug Protector also rescued the Captain and
crew ot a schooner loaded with sugar and set
them ashore IUlar

Arnold the Bage of XTnadlllo joined the Senate
this morning and there wns Republican love
feast over his r turn Only one of the nine
Senators present is a Democrat and ho was 8
glad to see Brother Arnold that ho fraternized
too Mr Arnold had many Wonderful adven
tures and hairbreadth escape in his fight with
the elements Tomorrow is the last day for
the Introduction of r bills in regular order and
Mr ArnoldasChalrman of the Trust Investigat
ing CommittedImd a bill tliathe wtsHpd to offer
Today and tomorrow wore his last chance
Ho strove bravely to got hero and succeeded
He Is the first one of the snowbound Beputore
to return and the Senators who haveboen
onow bound hero wore no rejoiced to BOO him
that they uncorked several fatted calves
Mr Arnold started from his homo at Un edit
la 100 miles from Albany on Monday after
noon Tho train on tho Albany nnd Busquo
hnnna road went as far as Quaker Street nnd
stuck A branch road runs to Schenectady
and ono engine attempted to pull its tender
and a combination baggage and passengercar
from Quaker Street to Schenectady About
half way between the two places the engine
was stalled There woro twenty men three
women and 1 baby in tho combination car
They stayed there that night while the snow
drifted up to the top of the car The women
fed on the brakomens suppers and tho men
lived on Otsego county cigars The next morn
lag they saw a small hotel threequarters of a
milo away Several of the men tried to get to
It but they failed at first and one man fell
through a drift Into a barbed wire fence and out
himself < upplyof eggs und crackers from
tho farm house kept tho women alive I
Senator Arnold resolved to bo absent from
his legislative duties no longer and with two
men from Maine he started to walk to Sche
nectady the miles distant He tied strings
around his trouxers legs and waded through
tbo drifts In the evening ho reached tiche
noctady and came to Albany on a train with
seven engines to pull three car All the loss
was one overshoe that was abandoned in a
snowdrift and there was a gain of two cigars
drfh clmr
from tho Maine mono With him on the train
from Bohoneotady dozen Assemblymen
trm oheneolaY wore 0 ARIemblTmenl
who are not as great men as a Senator and
therefore not worthy ot being made HO famous
The Senate at once took ofllciul cognizance
of the heroism of one of Its members Henator
Fanpett moved to appoint an assistant door
keeper thereby adding to tbe patronage ot the
Kepubllciin Hnnatora and in support of the
motion he said supPr
Wo have to admire an act of more than or
dinary heroism on the part or a member of this
body who I am theJart say IB a Republican
Ilt thrilling deeds make UR proud of the name
of Americans for he Is nn American With
oothluc but eggs and crackers to sustain hU
strength with no protection from the snowy
blasts but strings around his trousers legs and
though less than seven feet In height he
waded through snow drifts twenty feet high by
thirty wide No testimony can be too strong
no ouloglura too round nnd full to do justice to
this patriotic feat ot a noble and extraordinary
man
Senator Sloan sad I want to endorse all
the Senator has so justifiably and ably lad
except one statement Senator Arnold put the
strings around his trousers legs to catch the
device Urang vote That I an unfair campaign
This was an allusion to Senator Arnolds
Gubernatorial ambition and U applauded
brail the Senators present
Senator Arnold objected Thero is no ques
tion before tho Senate he said
The storm Is a proper question for consid
eration said LloutQov Jones
Senator Lnughlln explained thnt the assist
ant doorkeeper necessary and that his du
ties would consist In Allowing Senator Arnold
With 1 shovel and digging paths for him
In defence and explanation Senator Arnold
made this htatoment IhaJ a most delight
ful walk with two men from Ualnewfao are
great and persistent because they came from
tbo State of James O Blame Cheers which
wero ruled out by Oon Jones because they
wore unfair to the absent minority Wo

snowdrifts 111 teen to twenty feet deep in one
hour and twenty minutes I am ready to do it

Communication with Coney Island a
opened yesterday afternoon for the first time
since tho blizzard sot in by THE SDK The re
porter who made tho journey was preceded for
several miles of the last ond of tho course by
two wagon trails Then a curve showed that
the two trails wore made by ono vehicle which
had given tho job up and turned around Af
ter that the horse and cutter broke virgin drifts
until the beach was reached Tho Island was
all there So were tho people who crowded
around tho reporter and begged for news The
one copy of TUB SUN which the reporter had
with him was presented to Paul Bauer Short
11 afterward tho veteran hotel keeper read the
news aloud to a large crowd in his own bar
room Tho reporter was received like a
sirango being from a far land When ho left
crowds on every corner shouted goodbye and
good luck homeward
Brooklyn livery men nil scorned the proposi
tion which the
ton reporter made them yesterday
to try 0 go to Coney Island Money was offered
In vain One man wanted 100 and the price
of ills team beside and then refused to go
Four In all declined to risk the trip They wore
afraid notonlyof their outfits hut their lives
At last a daring spirit was encountered Ho
was a cabman of tho name of John J Johnson
Ho had a sleigh that cost only t3 he said but
hIs mare Kitty was n twoducked daisy He
thought hod rather like to try It anyhow and
concluded that 25 would remunerate him
Tho reporter accepted the contract and started
with not too lively hopes The Boulevard was
hard t reach Prospect Park was drifted hlth
Not a wagon bad attempted break a passage
A long dttonr round the park showed the Bou
levard broken by a single track which crossed
from sldo to side to avoid
drifts now taking the
middle of tht avenue and again deviating to
tho drives and sidewalks flue road houses
wore deserted A few showed signs of life
Some were snowed completely up At Haven
halls a mile and a half up the Boulevard a
dozen men were shovelling snow
Where did you come from 1 they shouted
Tho city was the niply
The devil you rt1ly tho men cried and
watched the cutter slide briskly by Shortly
Shorty
after a giant drift was met Kitty took it on
the jump and in another moment reporter and
driver floundered in the snow The sleigh was
lifted bodily up and waist deep in snow the
two mm helped Kitty carry it through tho
drift It was only a 3 sleigh and didnt welch
much The west wind had swept the east Hide
of tho road fairly clear ot snow and piled huge I
rRI celr hUlo
drifts on the WCgt side By hugging the east
side long stretches ot good sleighing was had
But the exceptions to the nIle were the
great obstacles In places the east side
was drifted fence high and her and
there tho road from side to side was
a mountain The sunken cross streets
afforded tho really dangerous places Hero
tho cutter would dash on loan apparent level
and sink horsn and cutter in tho snow The
men then had to dismount and help the horse
Sometimes hidden Ice cakes would throw the
sleigh from side to side Sometimes It would
be the reporter that plunged headlong In the
Know bankwhllo the driver dune to tho sleigh
Sometimes the situation would bo reversed
Several times both landed In snow banks with
tho sleigh on its side Altogether seven up
sets and Innumerable lifts enlivened the trip
In one spot both men had to push tho light
cutter 100 yards or more to save tho day In
all the wild struggles bravo Kitty nobly kept I
her feet
Pnrkville was snowed completely In The
main street westward was occupied by a seven
foot drift which showed not tbe slightest effort
11htost efort
at cress on the part of the imprisoned rest
dents Beyond Parkvllle a covered wagon was
stuck In the snow on the sidewalk WIIon I ware
hitched three horses munching hay It had
started in the early morning with two collins
aboard Ono contained the body ol Marx
HAfTe the other that of a babe of Harris
larrs
Cohens Undertaker Wolf Zugeermann had
contracted to oury mem in Washington Come
terv He did I but his men had to carry the
collins on their shoulders from tho imprisoned
wagon for three miles through the drifts
Looking over the edge of a culvert a straight
even Held of snow was soen But thirty teet
below the reporter knew tbat the tracks of ono
of tho city railroads ran The tops of the tele
graph poles stuck out Around Sohultzs train
ing stables is an iron fence which last week
was ten feet high Yesterday it was not as
many inches high in places and in ono spot
was a toot under the surface Browns cottaze
had nearly been dug out ot large drifts Brit
tells sheds adjoining were the nucleus of 1
aA solitary cutter approached the BUNS cut
ter In it was Judge John Mona bon He had
E > men working on the snow outside
his rood houbo He himself was trying experi
ments Hu had driven part way to the island
in the morning and now was trying it city
oiy
wards Barney Holt another oldtime hotel
keeper appeared soon after on the same er
rand They all had the man t THE BUNS
cutter a novelty They wanted to know how
be did It When they found out they turned
around and went back A hal mile above Mo
Mahons 1 fled was stuck It came from
Bheepshead Bay and had contained a score of
men all of whom were now wielding shovols
A bottle of whiskey was In circulation and the
health of THE SUN was drunk from It
Every ono ot them asked how New
York stood the blizzard At Tony Dugans
and Hiram Howes men asked where the sleigh
came from Borne of them expressed disdainful
unbelief Thousands of famished crows flocked
focked
around a field near the island They had dis
covered a manure heap and this one spot imd
been scraped clean of snow Coney Island
bridge was reached at 330 oclock an hour und
n half from the start The lent was due to
Kittys wonderful strength and endurance At
Badors Hotel within sight of tho water the
reporter got a phenomenal welcome He was
the first city mnn seen since Saturday and ho
had to toll the city naws before he could get In
formation about tbe island Paul Bauer smiled
all over when be received the present of a copy
of Tin BUN Ho Bald It was worth 1000 It
was the first paper on the island 100 I
The storm had full sway That It did little
harm is due entirely to Its direction I blew
seaward and blow the ocean back so the tide
td
was unusually low during Its prevalence
Had it come from the bouth with equal force

WAenntaios March 14TIm Secretary of
the Interior today sent to the President for
transmission to Congress n report of JJi
McNamee relative to land grant wagon roads
in Oregon The report shows that grants of
land ware made by Congress in 1904 to aid In
the construction ol theta roads as follows To
the Willamette Valley and Cascade Mountain
military road extending from Albany toSnako
Itlver n distance ot 475 miles 870480 acres
to tho Oregon Central military road from

tanco of 420 miles 800400 acres anti to the
Dallos military road from Belles to old Fort
Bolso ft distance of 837 miles 085440 acres
aggregating 2308320 acres The report shows
that none ot those ronds wore ever construct
ed although several Governors of the Btato
certified to tholr completion that Qov Woods
certified to the completion of lie Dalles road
when in fact ha hud examined but a small
portion of It and that tho agents appointed by
Governors Grover and May reported roads fin
ishod when time construction was not begun
On those certificates Governors patents have
been issued to thoso Fompnnlos for 911227
acres Tho title to tho remainder has not yet
passed to patent Immediately on scouring
certificates of completion the land grants wore
sold with the view the report says of putting

California and Oregon Lnnil Company of Ban
Francisco end the third by the heirs ot Edward
Martin of Ban Francisco and thin Eastern

With tho report the Secretary submits a draft
of a bill to bo presented to Congress repeating
all said granting nets declaring forfeited all

storing to the public domain all lands grunted
except such as may have boon sold to innocent
purchasers who are actual settlors to the ox
tent of one section to each such purchaser
The bill directs the AttorneyGeneral to melt
tate suits to cancel all patents and certifica
tions under said actswith the ixeeptionit stated
After setting forth the facts in his letter to
the President Secretary Vllas concludes OH fol
lows It would Room therefore to be the fair
duty of the Government not alone toward
those citizens who are bettor entitled to possess
the lands themselves but in reprehension ami
redress of a grost Imposition and fraud to
press by a judicial inquiry antI a just Judgment

liropdrtv and that they should be punished for
their illegal and contuniaclousconduct The
receiver utid counsel uiako no such complaint
On thu contrary the receiver declares that
thorn has boon no Intorloronce with him While
the nflldavlts submitted in support of time path
tion show that Mr Arthur sent telegraphic
maiingo to time engineers of tint Union Paclflo
Itallway Company at Omaha directing them to
haul no cars ot the petitioner It does not fairly
appear from thn exldonces that the engineers
sooLfl rvvnivuu ouce or

For the present It Is sufficient to say that
the Court will protect the property of the Wo
bash in Its custody Tho employees ot the re
ceiver cannot bo obliged to remain In his ser
vice against their wish but neither they nor
others will be permitted to interfere with or
disturb the receiver or his subordinates In pos
session and operation of the property in his
custody Lawless Interference with the re
ceiver and his employees in tho discharge i
tholr duties will not be tolerated It Is proK

Throughout tho trip the object wns to obtain

tern Not only wore meetings of Brothcrliood
men attended but at each point the railroad
oflleialB wero seen Both sides hud theIr own
story to toll anti It was hard work getting nt
thu mill facts It wits quIte satisfactorily
shown however that tho Jiurltnstoii system la
doing only from forty to lltty per cent of the
business It did before thin strike At every
point mentioned passenger trains were from
one to six hour late In regard to freight
business each division suporlntondcnt frankly
admltlcd that the root was dolnc much lens
business than before the strike and said there
were no cattle carried over the road except
where tile company had bought cattle In pans
Freight trains formerly made up of about
thirty curs now iucludo from nine to twenty
In some Instances engines drawing n way ear
are sent out anti counted as a train The
officials of the road are doing tholr utmost to
keep traffic moving While they do not express
themselves as In sympathy with the engineers
they say they wish the old hands were back at
the throttle
The Brotherhood men are firm and so are
tho officials At the farthest western points
visited the men wore more determined even
than tho men here This Is nspOcially true at
Kansas City Meetings are held there dally
and the Chairmen of the Grievance Commit
tees ot other roads speak ut tho meetings and
without exception express themselves us ready
to abandon theIr unirlne If necessary
As regards the Brotherhood the situation
as expressed by Chief Arthur today Is tills
If we lose the light said ha It niettn the
death of thin organization The Brotherhood
commands now from 300000 to trOOOOu and
the Chlois assert that by assessment sin much
more can be raised Therefore the men are In
a fighting position and are lluhtlnK for what
they believe to be the life of tho Brotherhood i
