The libel ; of the schooner Nellie Floyd by the late Capt Thos. Taylor for the sum of $2,500 salvage was com promised in the United States Court here yesterday by Messrs. Rountree & Carr, representing the vessel own ers, and Hon. jonn n. -.Bellamy coun sel for the libellant- By the terms of the compromise the widow of the late Capt. Taylor receives $100 and the costs are paid by the owners of the Nellie Floyd- Mr. Bellamy, in tne light of subsequent developments In the case with the tragic death of his client, accented no fee and tne es tate alone will benefit by the compro- mise. . , , It will be remembered that the Nel lie Floyd, while on her trip from Georgetown.-S. laden with lumber to New York, lost, ner ancnoxs- ana came off the bar. for repairs and pro visions. She was towed. Jn by, the Wil mington at the usual towage rate, but CaDt. Taylor claimed that the vessel was in danger- and liable to salvage. The Floyd proceeded ; on her voyage, going as far as Southport in tow of the steamer Wilmington last night Greatest Loss Being' in Jettisoned Cargo I nsurance In " Full Steamer Expected To-day. f After a day of extreme anxietf-'be-cause of the development of ; strong southwest winds in the afternoon tend ing to drive her further ashore, the Clyde Liner Nayahoe was succeissfully floated early-, last night and - she pro- lor, president of the Chamber of Com merce, -who addressed a letter to the Mayor ,Thursday," a , special meeting of .the Board of 'Aldermen js. called to hej heljl to-night at 8" o'clock at the TSdumportrThe -sirip-i-wy. little.

I ' ft-'The- nlay-which'ha been -H ceedj at oncelnto rthef h of recent ypars in' any, damaged, it is thought, the great est loss being in the jettison of a part of her cargo of lumber, "shingles anc cross-ties" In order to save"her. Te' vessel was floated by fte - combined pull of the United States Revenue Cut ter Seminole, the tug Blanche and the tug Marion, which have laid by the big ship almost constantly since last Sun day. - : , At :35, on high water, the big ship slipped from her sand bottom into the channel, and there was rejoicing on board that knew no bounds. The ves sel was at once towed into Southport by the cutter, and. was tied up for the night at the wharf of the Cape Fear Quarantine" Station. The liner had been anchored ahead toward the chan nel in order to keep her in the advan tageous . position previously gained by the tugs, and when she came off, her cables were slipped, in order to avoid delay. For that reason she could not anchor last night and had to-be moor ed at the Quarantine Station wharves. - No effort was made to pull on the vessel yesterday morning as it was de sired to further lighter a -part of the cargo of naval stores and cotton goods aft The cutter- and tugs went to her early yesterday afternoon in view of the .southwest winds and pulled con stantly until she came off. The Navahoe is an iron hull steam er of 1,278 net and 1,879 gross tonnage and was built In Hamburg, Germany, in 1880, having formerly been the Ger man steamship Thuringia. She hSs an indicated horse power of 980, car ries a crew of 27, according. to marine record, and has a depth of 21.8 feet She is 283 feet long over all and 35 foot beam. The damage to the vessel is of no apparent consequence thus far. Her boilers are filled with salt water, owing to her enforced absence at sea, but this will be pumped out to day after which it is expected that she will proceed up to Wilmington to pre pare for proceeding on her voyage to New York. The amount of Jettisoned cargo will probably amount to over $20,000 but all was insured. A large part of the cargo is stored in the old C. F.. & Y.

One of the allegations is understood to be that Capt.RiCe in his official capacity was guilty of discour tesy to masters of boats which he was inspecting "and that at times his con duct otherwise was such that did not reflect credit upon the servioe.

The Mayor at the same time stated that he had7 no desire to impose a hard ship upon the merchants, but, inasr much as the business men had com plained of - a . non-enforcement of the law. he thought; they should at least ask for a repeal of this law as to the dummy line," or not blame him for an enforcement in case it is not repeal ed, or words to that effect Mr. Tay lor promptly replied to the letter, ask ing for a meeting to hear the repre sentations of the business men and the Mayor was none the less prompt in responding to Mr. Taylor's communi cation. " - Any curtailment of the present fa cilities on the trackage along .the wharf would very seriously hamper the business interests of the port,, and it is believed, that the Aldermen will re spond readily to the request - of the wharf people for the relief desired. Forty-eight hours at present is not suf ficient for a days business on the dummy line," and if any of that time is lopped off by the Aldermen, serious consequences will result. The business men and a number of the Aldermen whom a reporter heard express themselves yesterday seemed to favor a repeal of all res trictions as to time with the enact- Lmen of an "ordinance prohibiting the obstruction of any street intersections so as to give free passageway to ve hicles and the fire department appara tus. It is not expected that there will be any contention over the matter to night and that the proposition of the business men will go through with no delay.
