Battleships Join In Hunt For Naval Tug. Washington, Feb. 14.—Preliminary reports from the naval vessels engaged in the search ft»r the missing naval tug Nina state that the missing vessel was not sighted. The revenue cutter Gresham sent a report to the navy department from Boston that .\^he spoke the tug Savage, which reported her departure from the Chesapeake bay last Sunday morning. The weather was so bad that the Savage turned back into the bay. The Nina, however, the master of the Sav age reported, continued on her way. There was a heavy sea running at the time, which was breaking over the Nina. The Gresham will coui?iuue the search to the niirthward and eastward of Cape Cod. The tender Castine, which left Bos ton on Saturday, advised the navy de partment that she had searched the southern parts of Nantucket sound, but found no trace of the Nina.

The * woman is now confined to her rooms where it is said she will recover. Miss Pursell was employed as a sill^ worker by the firm of Jansen & Pret«> zel. For the past three weeks she had been annoyed by a pain which begaR in her stomach. Daily the pain moved upward until suddenly it had reached her throat. Shortly before noon, while she was at work, the pain annoyed her so that she was forced to leave her work and sit down. Dr. Frank McDede was summoned and after an examination of the worn- , an declared there was some kind ot t animal in her throat.

Since passing out of the bay she has not been seen. She was bound for Boston, where she should have arrived on Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest. She was in command of Chief Boat swain John S. Croghan, United States navy. There were thirty-two men on board. RACING TO SAVE 88 LIVES. Chilean Cruiser and Five Steam ships Steam ing to the W recked Lima. Ancud, <^ile, Feb. 14.—The Chilean cruiser Ministro Zenteno and five steamships- of the Pacific Navigation company are racing south in the des perate hope that they may save the eighty-eight persons who, when last reported, were clinging to the stern of the British steamship Lima as the ves sel was pounding herself , to pieces on k reef in the Huamblin passage, in the Strait of Magellan. Two hundred and five persons were^ taken from the wreck by the British^ steamship Hatumet under diflaculties which finally compelled the Hatumet to abandon the work of rescue.

MEAT STILL HIGHER.. T1 ■•1 Boycott In Newark Has W orked ijd Wrong Way. I tnre itself will be put in the fire is now practically assured, and after that conference in New York in which the president of the United States, the gov ernor of the state, the new leader of the New York county Republican or ganization and others took part the im pression* up here is that a plan of cam paign has been decided, upon and now Is the time- for the old war horses that have been^ chau^ping at their bits to charge or retreat. Mr. Allds, though the nominal leader his party in the legislature, has been through a hard week and has made a big fight to keep his name, character and reputation immaculate, but the stories that have been exploited before the senate sitting as a committee of the whole have reached the farthest boundaries of the United States, and a national interest has been manifested in the proceedings that now liven up Capitol hill. Only the Start. Up here it is taken for granted that the counsel of the wise ones of the par ty has dictated a general probing of the legislature, of which the Allds- Conger scandal is only the beginning. Whatever the outcome of the present investigation, it has been the convic tion that the Inquiry cannot halt until this boodle business has been hanged, drawn and quartered. That a joint committee of the assembly and senate will do this work appears almost a certainty. The Allds-Conger case stands alone at present, hut it must be understood that during the examination and grill ing of witnesses on the stand the past week statements were made under oath that open a larger field for the huntsmen who appear to be seeking truth and corruption. The Allds inquiry will be resumed with Conger as‘ the star. In the mean time it is said that authorities will be consulted in an effort to bolster up the admissibility of hearsay evidence. Mr. Osborne of counsel for Senator Conger has declared that the court of appeals has ruled in favor of the position he maintains on this question. Mr. Os borne is striving to get on the record a conversation between Hiram G. Moe and a man named .John W. Jones of Groton, where it is declared that Con ger told this corruption story about a year ago and which he repeated on the Newark, N.
