Railway ferryboat Atlantic City, off
South street wharf, at 0:21 o'clock
this morning.
Four other nten were seriously In
jured, and minor injuries were inflicted
, upon many others.
jNo one knows just'-now the accident
occurred. It Is the belief of several
ricrsons on the boats, however, that a
mistake In signals was the cause.
Charged with homicide, Joseph P.
Cannon, who rommanded the tug nt the
time of the accident, has been held
without bail by Magistrate Pennock, nt
City Hall, to await the action of the
coroner.
Cannon was arrested by the crew of
the police boat King, which lies nt
Washington avenue wharf.
Tho Atlantic City, oldest boat in the
Reading's Atlantic City ferry service,
was plowing nlong on her way from
the ferry slin nt Kaiehn Point. I'nm.

street, this city.
Decks and cabins were jammed with
passengers, most of thei.i working peo
ple, on theTr way to this city fiom their
New Jersey homes.
It was a hazy morning, 'but the fog
was not heavy. Most of the people on
the ferryboat were crowded on the
front, looking out over the liver. Others,
ip search of warmth, occupied the seats
in the cabins.
Sec Tug Approaching
As the Atlantic City was about fitlO
yards from the South stieet slip the
'passengers on tho front end snw the
big steel tug Caspian mining straight
for them on her way down the river.
Whistles' shrieked, the ferry gave a
cumbersome lurch to the left, the tug
swung sharply to the right nnd men on
the ferry turned and inn toward the
gfern of the boat.
A woman's shriek arose, and was
repented. With n crash the tug cut
Into, the starboard or right hand side
of the ferryboat, just forward of the
Wheel box. The entire side, was crashed
in and the tug's steel bow cut eight
feet into the side of the Atlantic City.
For a moment there was no sound,
then shouts nnd cries arose. Men leap
ed overboard from the ferry into tlie
cold water. Others were crushed nnd
Jammed in the narrow nllejs between
the paddle wheel boxes and the interior
bulkheads of the -fern boat. They
groaned and cried for help.
Still others run, stumbled, fell;
others tumbled over them and piled up
in a sprawling heap, while still other
passengers pulled out life preservers and
tried, to distribute tlicin.

The rain, which started about 10

There was some. fear1 that a blizzard

serts. The nearest snow today is in
Wisconsin and Wyoming, and it Is not
aimed in this direction. It probably

Inthcso brief sentences John !,.
Lewis, acting president of the
United Mine Workers of America,
at 4 o'clock this morninjr, declared
tho great soft-coal strike officially
at an end.
The conference of the mine work
ers' leaders had been in almost con
tinuous session since yesterday
morning at 10 o'clock and it was a
very tired and sleepy body of men
that -straggled out of the hotel into
the chill air of the early day.
Loud and Angry Voices
The decision to call off the strike
was arrived at only after a bitter
struggle. During the night loud and
at times angry voices tuned to con-
i cert pitch came through the close
ly locked doors of thessembly room
in tho Lincoln Hotel. It was the
extremists who fought to the end
in favor of ignoring the mandate of
the couit who argued longest and
loudest.
Toward the end and after ths.
votp ha(' ',ccn taken by districts, a
delcpato who left before ndjourn-
ment exclaimed as he passed the
group of coriespondents in the cor
ridjf. "It'll be over in ten minutes.
The I. W. W.'s have got the floor
now- but thc matter's settled."

agreed to have the recall mailed by
