Including a dosen ; splendid Polar specimens, which I were quartered on the main deck aft; two, laughing hyenas and ten " ordinary , hyenas without a spirit of humor, five chlmpansees, dosen mongooses that delight In bit ing serpents In two or three or more pieces, a drove of camels and drome daries, twentyflve pumas, a big herd of elephants, performing horses and ponies,' a white sacred bull, covered with sacred tattoo marks declared to be of genuine occult East Indian origin; fifteen Great Dane dogs.

Three lion cubs were born on the trip, but died. They could - not stand the . motion of tha tea ' May la usually a quiescent month on the western ocean and the skipper of 'the St. 'Andrew expected to get here from Antwerp In about twelve days. Matt Johpson of Bostook's show, -who had general charge of the' anlniala, took the word of the skipper and - provided food. Including six old horses, for twelve deys for the men agerie. The last of the meat for es-gji v i iv siiv agent is a viiu ?. ssi the carnlvora gave out on Friday, and ths St. Andrew could not stop to ratch fish, even on tbe fish day. There fore, the growly beast had to go hungry. The. two laughing hyenas never laughed so weirdly before, end the royal Bengal tiger, Caesar, made the steel deck rattle with his rosr. The first thing that Mr. Johnson did when he set foot on the solid? soil of Ho boken was to seek butcher shops. Meat was .brought down to the ship early last evening and Hoboken quivered under the influence of. what Secretary Dan Blattery of tne police department would -call a "great roar Thomas Tallon. a lion trainer wno haa eleven beasts on his staff, telling the experience of the St.. Andrew, said he hoped that the next time he ship bed with lions and tigers it would be under the tutelsge of some other saint. Andrew wss too merry for htm For three days there were nothing but head seas and galea Tne tor ward hatch was open to give the ag sreaatlon air and the wave crests snd spondrirt came aooara in ciouaa. The forward hold looked like tbe rapids of Niagara. The worst night of the trip. May 8, found all tbe animate wishing there wss no sea on the way. Even- the trainers were In distress, especially the women, who mlaht stroke the manes of Hons but not the mane of the sea. Two Russian wolvea be came involved In an srgument and one of them got the better of the other. Their scrap set tne wnoie space between decks howling, yelp ing, groaning and snarling. The com mon sailor man, accustomed to the Dlstn srrowl of the combers, got an attack of nerves when the beasts be gan to join In the storm chorus. The vanquished wolf squeesed out between the bars of his csge and ran for the companion ladder leading from the after hatchway to the main deck. A dosen keepers went after him. Meanwhile the ship was rolling so that it waa hard for the landlub ber, to atand. The wolf, a monster. dark brown fellow, galloped forward nursued by the keepers He was chased twice around the main deck. Several keepers headed him off, and after stopping and looking at them a moment he leaped up on tne ran ana Jumped Into the-boiling sea. No life boats wsra lowered. '. The wolf had hsrdly vanished when a greater racket than ever stirred the bowels ef the liner. Two lions. Vic tor and Madame, In the same cage, had got Into a fight. Cages were slipping athwartshlpa with every roll of the St.- Andrew. Keepers with steel tipped prods tried to fore the lions apart. Keeper Kennos. wno had a prod, found a cage containing two Hone coming bis way and . tried to dodge. All the animals were tremendously excited. One of the Hons In the Im- nendin caae aot Its head far enough out to bite In paslng, about three Inches out of Kennos's left leg, Ken nos made for the' open deck. About the ame time another trainer 'was grsbbed by. a lion whose cage slid across ths hold- The trainer lost his cost and shirt and his left hand was badly lacerated. He made for the surgeon's stateroom. By this time victor had torn open tne - treat, ot Madame and was making prepara tions to eat her. Re-enforcement of tralaers arrived, prodded Victor away from the lioness and got, out her carcass which was thrown -overboard. In the general uproar , a vlciou puma got loose and tackled a little elephant, one of the most Intelligent In the herd. , The elephant looped It trunk about the puma and after al most strangling it, - hammered - tt against the deck and then trampled It to death.

The esse was long and ably f ought In Superior court.
