Nkw York, June 15. The three
decked excursion steamer General
Blocum, of the Knickerbocker Steam
boat Company, burned to the water's
edge off Brothers Island to-day, re
sulting In the death through burning
or drowning of at least six hundred
persons, mostly women and children.
Four hundred and forty-seven bodies
had been recorerea to-night and divers
were at work taking bodies from the
hold of the steamer. The remains of
many persons who leaped Into the
river have not yet been found, and It
will be many hours before the list of
dead Is anywhere near complete.
The General Blocum, one of the
largest excursion steamers in these
waters, left Third street, East river, at
9:80 o'clock this morning, having on
board the annual Sunday : school
excursion of St. Mark's German Lu
theran church, located In Sixth street
Her destination was Locust Grove,
one of the many resorts on Long
Island sound. The excursion was In
charge of Rev. George O. F. Haas,
pastor of the church. The vessel was
commanded by Captain William van
Schalk, one of the beat known excur
sion boat captains In New York har
bor. He has commanded the General
Blocum for almost the entire time
since ahe was built in 1891. The num
ber of excursionists on board to-day is
variously estimated at from 1,500 to
2,5ft), but according to an official
statament issued by .the Knickerbocker
Steamboat Company, owners of the
Blocum, . the number of passengers
was 873, that being one-third of the
vessel's licensed capacity.
The steamer, after leaving ber dock
this morning proceeded up the East
river, all three of her decks being
crowded with merrymakers. Bands
played add the great side-wheeler
was decorated with flags from stem to
stern.
The Blocum had reached a point
near the Sunken Meadows off 135th
street, Manhattan, which is at the ex
treme eastern end of Hand all's Island,
when fire broke out In a lunch room
on the forward deck. The blaze was
caused by the overturning of a pot of
grease. The headway of the vessel
and a high wind almost instantly
fanned the Insignificant flame Into
fury. Efforts were at once directed to
subduing the fire, but they were fu
tile. The blaze spread art with almost
lightning rapidity. Captain van
Schalk, in the pilot house, had been
informed of the outbreak of the fire
and realizing the danger to the hun
dreds of excursionists, decided to send
his vessel to the shore at 134th street.
At this point there are a number of
lumber vards ami several huge oil
tanks and the captain was warned that
to attemnt to land at this point would
endanger the property and perhaps
further Imperil the scores or people,
who had already been frightened Into
a state of almost uncontroname ex
citement.
Changing the big steamer's course
sliehtlv be headed her for North
Brother Island, half a mile away.
Bv this time the flames wererusning
by leaps and bounds from the forward
navt nf the shin.
The great open decks, built for ex
cursionists with little obstruction irom
bow to stern, offered a clear sweep for
the fire. As the Slocum dashed for
ward the flames caught stanchion and
cabin woodwork, eating and tearing
thnlr wav across the vessel.
The excurslonists.but a few moments
before In the full enjoyment of an
ideal Bummer's day on Long Island
mind, were driven to the after part of
the steamer to escape the heat, flames
nd smoke, which were constantly In
creaaiug. Policemen and deck hands
fthnard Btruflrled hard to quiet the
nn 5 (?. but their efforts were In vain.
The wild disorder increased, as frantic
mothers sought to find tbeir cnuaren,
whn hid been at nlav about the decks
The steamer's whistle, was blowing
for asslstanceand tugs and other near
b craft answerea to me can. ooiuro
any of the boats could reach the burn
ing steamer, however, the frantlo wo
rn n and children began to jump over
Wrd. The current was strong and
tha r mftnv whirlpools in the
channel. The boats that always
hound in the vicinity nicked up many
persons from the water, but these
were only a small number of those
that were seen Struggling In the swift
iirnt.
On the Slocum the first sweep Of the
'flames cut off escace from the hurri
cane deck, where a great many of the
wnmnn end children were crowded to
a.thAr and soon burned away the
ltffht wood of the uprights which
fm taw.n with a crash on those be
low.
ti ! thought that most of those on
iYim hiivvfoann dfielr were burned.
As the fire increased, the struggle
to gain a point of vantage at the stern
hAmn frightful. Women and chil
dren crowded against the after rail
until It gave way and hundreds were
pushed off into the river. After this
there was a steady stream of persons
who lumned or were thrown Into the
water
Bv this time the shrieking whistle
nf th RioRum had attracted the atten
Hon nf river craft for a considerable
diatanee around, and tUgS and Other
mall boats were rushing to the assist
an nf tha hnmtnc steamer. -
Thaaa amall boats rescued all those
in tha water whom they could reach,
but many persons struggled and sunk
krorM nn-v heln could reach them. In
the wake of the Slocum as she hurried
n atraam-was aline of little black
spots, marking the heads and bodies
of those wbo bad sought to escape the
roaring furnace on the snip ny inrow
inn thamaalves overboard.
Few of those saved by the small
boats bad on life preservers. At no
time during the progress of the fire
was there an opportunity to either
tha life boats or get the life
nrasarvara nut from underneath the
fa ThU nerhaDs. elves an Idea of
the ranlditv with which the flames
swept the decks. It was an experience
harrowing and terrible and that any
siKitmii alive aeems wonderful.
Through all the wild panic, during all
th&t infmo wfih fire and smoke sur
rounding them the officers ana men ot
the doomed boat remainea at meir
posts, but they were powerless to avert
the catastrophe.
The Slocum got within fifty feet of
the northwest point of North Brother
Island and there stopped in the shal
low water. It was just before she
beached that the hurricane deck, the
supports of which had burned away,
fell with its load of women and
children, adding to the panic and
horror of those on the deck below.
Very soon after parts of the second
and third decks also caved In. But
before this bpptnd the tug Walter
STEAMER BURNED
Tracey had come alongside the burn
ing steamer and been lashed to it.
Jlany.of the passengers were taken off
by the crew of the Tracey, which re-
malned ionride the steamer until the
tug's pilot house t' ok fire.
The p int where the Slocum beached
was juit off t e scarlet fever ward on
North Brothera Island. The patients
who had been out on the porches and
lawns watching the approach of the
burning steamer, were ordered indoors,
and the physicians -on the island has
tened to the assistance of those who
were being brought ashore through
the shallow water. - Many of those who
leaped from the Slocum were carried
away by the current even after she
was beached, and were drowned.
The scene on North Brothers Island
as described by the rescuers was a piti
ful one. Body after body was washed
ashore or brought In by boats and
added to the long row on the beach.
Fifty-three persons died there while
the doctors were attending them.
As the bodies of the living and the
dead were taken out of the water, those
alive were taken to the hospitals on
the island or sent across the river
to hospitals in Mahattan. Here ambu
lances from almost all the hospitals in
Greater New York and every other
sort of conveyance which could be
found, were put into service.
For hours the bodies of the burned
and the drowned drifted ashore on the
Island, and between 131st and 138th
streets In Manhattan. Some came
ashore still alive. Many of these died,
while others will recover.
The scenes on the beach of North
Brothers Island were pitiable In the
extreme, as the living and the dead
were brought In. Women with dis
figured facet, their clothes partially
strlpped.from them, were carried to the
improved emergency hospital crying
lor children who had been torn from
them in the 1 mad rush when the boat
took fire. "
Meanwhile the Slocum burned to
the water's edge. At 13:25 o'clock,
two hours and twenty-five minutes
after the fire was first discovered she
sank. It Is estimated that there were
then nearly 100 charred bodies on her
decks. Just After the steamer sank
the water near by was black with
bodies. The tug Fidelity succeeded in
picking up eighty-eight charred
corpses In Hunt's Cove, off Baker's
Island and carried them Into the
sound. None of these bodies it is
thought can ever be Identified.
At the end of the Charities pier at
the foot of East 26th street, the crowd
to-night tried to push past the police
and a riot resulted. At the
height of the trouble a man who
had learned that his wife was among
the charred dead, tried to stab him
self. Inside the pier the bodies are
ranged in three rows, the entire
length of the pier, about 150 feet.
St. Mark's Lutheran church con
tained in its membership practically
all those Germans of the Protestant
faith within a radius of ten square
blocks. The excursion was the event
of the year for scores of well to-do
German families and bad been looked
forward to for many months. Family
parties of ten or more had been made
up, including In many cases the old
grandmothers, the mother and the
children of all ages, with a sprinkling
of those men of the families wbo could
pare a day from their work.
Edward Van Wart, the pilot of the
General Slocum, said to-night:
"When I first discovered the pres
ence of fire on the steamer I decided to
maae forthe first dock that I could
find, but in a moment I was informed
that all the ropes by which we usually
tied up had been burned. I then de
cided to make for the first point of
land where there were no rocks and
beach the vessel and this I did. The
presence of rocks all along the shore
made It impossible for me to beach the
vessel any sooner than I did."
Van Wart was taken before Coroner
Berry and was paroled in the custody
of his counsel.
One of the tragic Incidents of the
day was the death of the family of
Dr. Haas. His wife, Gertrude, and
his daughter, Anns, are among the
dead.
It is alleged that the life preservers
were too securely fastened to their
holdings to be available, and stories
are told of frantic efforts made by
strong men to cut them loose; but
even if they could have been torn
down they were too high up for the
people to reach. It Is also alleged
that no attempt was made to get out
the fire apparatus at the first cry of
"fire," though Captain van Bchalck
says that he immediately rang tne
bells for getting out the apparatus.
According to several statements no
attempt was made to lower boats or
life rafts.
Captain Van Bchalck and his two
6 Hots, named Edward Van Wert and
L M. Weaver, have been arrested.

as Obi-Euzen province Oki island and

operations of the Russian Vladivostok

The Japanese warships In the vicin
ity are hurrying to the scene. There is
a strong possibility that a naval en
gagement will take place soon. No
southern city In Japan is exposed to
attack, but this Russian raid may
prove expensive to shipping.
London, June 15. A dispatch to the
"Central News from Toklo, filed at 6
P. M.t to-day, says:
"A dispatch just received from
Moj , says the cannonading at tea
topped at 1 P. M. There was a heavy
sea in tbe straits all day. The Japa
nese merchant steamers are known to
have left various ports for Moji and
there Is much anxiety about their
fate."
It is rumored to-night that the Rus
sian warships have gone eastward.
Trassports Attacked.
Tokio, June 15,6 P. M. It is re
ported here that the Japanese protect
ed cruiser NUtaka engaged the Russian
Vladivostok squadron off Tau Island
In the strait between Corea and Japan.
This report, however, lacks confirma
tion. Tbe Japanese transports Ueo and
Fuio. homeward bound, met the Rus
sian vessels, near Ok! island. The
Ruisians pursued them and fired 16
shots at tbe Japanese ships. The
transports escaped and reached Ka-
cusomoto.
Tokio, June 15. Three Japanese
transports, outward bound from Shl

this morning outside the strait of
Corea. The Russians fired 18 shots at
the Japanese ships. One transport es
caped. The fate of the other two is not
known.
Bombsrdlog Ontposts.
Tokio. June 15, 4 P. M. A flotilla
of torpedo boats and torpedo boat de
stroyers, under the command of Cap
tain Taucbiya and In co-operation
with the army, made a reconnolssance
in force near Bbao-Ping Island yester
day and bombarded the Russian out
posts on tne'eoast io the west of the
Island. 8haoPing island Is twelve
miles to the west of Port Arthur. At
noon the Russian cruiser Novik, con
voying ten torpedo boat destroyers,
steamed out from Port Arthur. The
Russian shore batteries protected
these vessels with a heavy can
nonade. Tbe Japanese flotilla re
treated slowly, firing as it went, for
the purpose of decoying the enemy to
sea. At 3 o'clock in tne afternoon the
Russian ships returned to the entrance
of Port Arthur. The fact that the No
vik came out ot Port Arthur makes it
certain that the Russians have succeed
ed In blasting a channel through the
cement laden merchantmen sunk by
the Japanese in the entrance to the
harbor.
This freedom of egress comes too late
to permit of any effect on the opsra
tionsofthe Japanese army, for men,
guns and stores have practically all
been landed, and Admiral Togo is ca
pable of keeping the remnants of the
Russian fleet imprisoned in Port Ar
thur. Last Monday night Japanese
vidette boats, protected by torpedo
boat destroyers, succeeded in reaching
the entrance to Port Arthur and plant
ed a series of mines. The darkness of
midnight favored the operation. The
Japanese vessels were not observed
and they returned to the rest of the
squadron without having sustained
any damage.

HOLLY AND MISTLETOE.

the House Should Be Decked
With Chrlatmaa Greens.
It would not be Christmas without
a 'wreath of holly in the window or
Borne touch of green about the home.
The ball is the first place to be consid
ered in decoration, as this gives the
keynote to the rest of the house, says
the Philadelphia Times. First and
foremost is the mistletoe, or, as it used
to be called, the "kissing" bough. This
need not necessarily be of mistletoe
alone, as holly can well be mixed with
it But it is correct to tie i bows or
true lovers' knots of various colored
ribbons on to the stems. The' larger
this bough can be the better, and it
should hang somewhere in the center
of the hall.
If there is a looking glass hanging
against the wall (and this is a great
improvement to a small, narrow hall,
as it gives an idea of space); let It be
encircled by a loose holly wreath. At
the foot of the stairs put a tall earth
enware jar of artistic shape, and ar
range in it tall boughs of holly and
spruce.
The holly can be turned into a great
variety of decorations for the home.
The wreath is by far the most popular
of the decorative designs. It is gen
erally tied with a smart bow of scarlet
ribbon. Frequently a star of red Im
mortelles is set within the wreath.
The holly branches, with plentiful
red berries showing against the glis
tening leaves, make an artistic garni
ture for the house. The branches are
a graceful ornamentation for pictures,
cornices and doors. In halls they are
particularly effective when there Is a
fireplace that may be used as a back
ground. A gilded basket (you can gild It your
self at small cost) filled with holly and
tied with broad, scarlet satin ribbon
would make an effective centerpiece
for the Christmas dinner table. A
bunch of holly will of course crown
the Christmas pudding, but a bunch
of mistletoe must be tied under the
chandelier in the parlor.
There are people who every Christ
mas put on great airs about their "real
English mistletoe," but our American
mistletoe answers all practical -purposes,
and the luck it brings and the
salutation it invites are just as gen
uine as any foreign article. Every
year the south is sending large quan
tities of mistletoe to market.
How to Send Chrlatmaa Gifts.
Never send a Christmas gift without
your card or some means of identifica
tion. People do not like to have their
pleasure tempered with mystery, says
the New York World. Engraved cards
are always in better taste than those
written by hand. Written messages
on an engraved card are permissible
when sending a gift to a relative or
intimate friend. A greeting, as "Merry,
Christmas" or "Season's Greetings,"
when used Is written on the upper part
of the face of the card. When simply
a date is used, as "Christmas, 1903,"
write it in the lower left hand corner.
It is customary for gentlemen to ac
company their gifts with engraved
cards bearing no inscription. Christ
mas gifts should always be neatly
wrapped in perfectly fresh paper and
daintily tied with a nice bit of string
or narrow ribbon. In sending a gift In
town, even to one's next door neigh
bor, employ a messenger or a servant;
never a member of the family if it can
be avoided. Always plan as nearly, as
possible to have a Christmas gift reach
its destination on Christmas day. Bet
ter the afternoon or evening than the
night before.
How to Make Cranberry Jelly.
Take two quarts of cranberries and
boil until very soft. Strain out the
juice and add as much sugar as there
is juice. The Juice will be more in
,the form of a thick pulp, for you have
strained it not through a cloth, but
through a coarse sieve. Now boil for
twenty minutes, add a tablespoonful
of gelatin dissolved in cold water and
pour into a mold. Set away to cool.
Send to the table turned out of the
mold and garnish with meringues. For
the meringues beat the whites of four
eggs nntil very stiff. Add a third of
a tea spoonful, scant, of cream of tar
tar. Whip again. Add a cup of sugar.
'scant, -and a little vanilla. Press
through a tube upon oiled paper and
bake in an oven so slowly as only to
dry them for half an hour.

Nashvilee, Tens., June 15. A
sweet-voiced young woman of Nor
folk, Va., Miss Mary E well, maid
of honor for the South, by her sinolog
of "My Old Kentucky Home" to day
won for Louisville the reunion next
year of the United Cotfederate Vet
erans. It was after the o'd veterans
had chosen Lieut. Gen. Stephen D
Lee as their commander-in-chief, and
had listened to a st'rring peech by
Col. Bennett H. Young, of Ksnluckr,
extolling the beauties, capability and
hospitality of his home city and
people, and their desire to entertain
the followers of the Stars acd Bos,
that Miss Ewell wis escorted to the
front of tbe stage. Her voice thrUled
the great crowd .that filled the Taber
nacle and the last note cf tbe famous
melody had scarcely left her lipt when
the convention went wild with shouts
of "Louisville," "Louisville."
Seconding speeches were unntccssa
ry, although Gen.- Lee graciously per
mitted one from. a Virginia delegate
and another from Kentucky. Toe
date will be determined later. In ad
dition to the election of officers the
meeting disposed of a vast amount of
routine business, but did not comnlete
their work and a final session will be
held at 4 o'clock this afternoor. Tbe
report of Adjutant General Mickel
shows that since the last reunion
charters have been issued to forty new
camps, making the total 1,563.
Tbe Women's Monument Associa
tion was instructed by the veterans
to turn over all funds to the Sons of
Veterans, wbo will complete the work
of erecting a monument to the women
of the South.
The most interesting part of the
committee on resolutions report is as
follows:
.First, that eection requesting Con
gress to take appropriate action looking
to the care and preservation of the
graves of the Confederate dead now In
the various cemeteries in the Northern
States, be adopted.
Second, the committee reports to the
association that more than one appli
cation has been made to this associa
tion to fix a permanent place for our
annual reunions; but your committee
is of the opinion that for the present it
would be wise for many reasons to
hold our annual reunions as heretofore
at such time and places as the associa
tion shall fix from year to year. Adop
ted. Resolved, That all Confederate vet
erans regularly enrolled in this asso
ciation, and none other, shall be eligi
ble to election or appointment in this
association. Adopted.
At noon the regular business of the
convention was set aside for the me
morials. Judge Thomas G. Jones, of
Montgomery, was the orator. All
the departed heroes of the Confeder
acy were referred to by several speak
ers, but General John B. Gordon, the
last great figure to pass over to the in
visible beyond, was made the occasion
of special tribute.
Tbe Southern Confederate Memorlsl
Association met, heard numerous wel
coming addresses and responses and
adjourned until to-morrow.
The veterans will have their
annual parade to-morrow moraine
the start to be made at ten
o'clock. Owing to the Increasing
infirmities of the old so'd.'ers, the
route was almost cut In two to-day by
those having the parade in charge.
The Sons of Veterans will ekct offi
cers to-morrow.
The most brilliant funclion of the'
reunion occurred to-night at the Golf
and Country Club. It was a recep
tion and ball complimentary to tLe
sponsors and maldi-of-honor by the
Sons of Veterans..
Election of Officers.
The United Confederate Veterans to
day elected tbe following officer :
Commander-in-Chief, Lieutenant
General Stephen D. Lee, of Columbus,

Ioob of Veterans.
Nashville, Tenn., June 15. The
Sons of United Confederate Veterans
met to-day, Commander-iu Chief
Fayssou presiding. Reports of d ffer
ent committees were heard. It was
recommended that headquarters of the
organization in New Orleans b?
accepted and that a permanent sec
retary be employed. The total num
ber of camps was announced as 481,
but only 104 are in good standing.
The quartermaster announced that after
paying the expenses of the year the
cash in hand was $13. Former Gov
ernor McMillan addressed the sons-,
congratulating them on the fact that
the hli ories being taught in the Ten
nessee public schools were written by
Confederates.
Chairman Owen submitted the re
port of the historical committee and it
was adopted. It showed that the North
was showing a spirit of co operation in
the matter of Southern history and was
returning trophies to the 8outh.
Louisville invited the Sons to meet
there next year.

THE CHRISTMAS TREE.
Hotc-IS Mar Be Prettily Trimmed at
Small Eipcnie,
. Tour tree selected, you catf trlm it
for as much or as little money as you
please. If your tree Is very tall It will
be well to trim the upper branches be
fore placing it in a perpendicular posi
tion lest they, be too high to be easily
reached. First of all you want some
attractive and appropriate ornament
for the summit or "tip top" point of
your tree, says the St. Loula Post-Dispatch.
If you desire to trim It at very
little cost a small figure of Santa
ilaus may be bought for 10 cents or
you may substitute for that patron
saint of Christmas a cardboard figure
of a boy or girl In winter garb or one
of an angel with a trumpet blowing out
Christmas tidings.
A surprising quantity of pink and
white popped corn can be bought for a
few cents, and if strung upon strlng3
and festooned on the upper branches It
will look very pretty, as will also cran
berries ' similarly used. Snowballs of
white co'.ton festooned to the ends of
the coughs and small pieces of the
same scattered all over the tree give a
very pretty snow effect. ., ..'
A yard of tarlatan costs 10 cents,
and little stockings cut from it sewed
with gayly colored yarn and filled
with candies are a great addition.
Colored candles, G cents a dozen, and
tin holders for them at 3 look very
pretty. In this way a tree may be at
tractively trimmed at from $1 to $2.
Sprays of red berried holly tied here
and there on the tree tend to brighten
It The box that holda the tree may be
covered with thick moss, bits of bro
ken mirror being interspersed to rep
resent water. A box of tin soldiers, a
Noah's ark or a wooden village, a gift
for one of tho children, might find its
first nse in populating this miniature
landscape at the foot of the tree. .
if you want an expensive tree noth
ing U prettier in the way of ornament
than the colored balls of the Bhops.
IIan: these numerously from every
branch and have festoons of smaller
ones from branch to branch all around
the tree from top to 1ottom.
Use plenty of the tinsels representing
frost and icicles and the little balls like
frozen bubbles from a liquid rainbow.
Then the shops have a close imitation
of festoons of snow, which you can at
tach to every twig, branch, bow and
needle. This snow Is made of fine tis
sue paper and comes packed in boxes.
Gilt stars, sold at any stationer's,
should be used In abundance, as should
also cardboard, china and candy an
gels, cherubs and children. A tree thus
trimmed costs from $10 to $23.
Bow to Make Candy Hags.
The gayest jcandy bags for Christ
mas are mr.de" of tarlatan in shades of
red, blue, pink and green. These are
cut square, oblong, stocking shaped or
circular, nre embroidered in tinsel r.nfl
have a drawing string of baby ribbon
or colored worsted. Pretty bags are
made by sewing silk American flags
together and shirring about an inch
from the top with red satin ribbon.
Paper muslin bags, shaped to simulate
pointed caps, turned upside down and
filled with candy, are popular with
young folks.
