Steamer Mohawk
Goes Aground and
Passengers in Panic
POUGIIKEEPS1E, N. Y., Sept.
Three hundred passengers of the steamer
Mohawk of the Manhattan Navigation
company were transferred from tho
vessel early today after It had gone hard
aground on embankment off Hydo park,
seven miles north of here. Most of them
resumed their Journey to Albany over
tho New York Central railroad.
In tho panic which followed the ground
ing several passengers were slightly hurt.
Many had ben thrown from their berths
by tho Impact, Which tore a great hole
In the Mohawk's bow and forced It nearly
thirty feet up the river bank, almost to
the New York Central tracks.
Nearly every one had retired when the
ship hit the rocks. The excited pas
sengers swarmed to tho decks, and while
the crew tried to calm their fears the
life boats were made ready to lower.
Tho vessel was so fast aground however,
as to be In no dunger of sinking, and it
was decided to wait foe assistance.
In response to tho vessel's whistles of
distress, tho steamers Trojan and Iro
quois of the same line came up and took
off consignments of passengers, many of
them hysterical women. There was a
long wait in the station at Poughlteepsle
before they could take the train for
Albany.
The accident was due to a break In the
steering gear.

part of extensive tests Velng conducted
by the United States Bureau of Chemistry
to obtain data for the drafting of regu

requires that the contents be plainly indi
cated on the outside of everv turlun nf
food. The tests are to determine the.
amount of shrinkage which takes place.
In transit from the Pacific to tho At

That many niceties of calculation must
enter Into the preparation of the regula
tions and tho figuring of tho allowances,
which Justly must be made on account
of the shrinkage during shipment, is
shown by the fact, as stated by officials
of the bureau, that certain rjroductn 1.
quently will lose weight when shipped
irom a city where the climate is moist
to one which Is In a high, dry place,
whereas they will take on weight when

that contributed by tho federal govern

WASHINGTON, Sept 29.-The admin

present thero Is no constitutional means
of opening communlcatioh on nn offi

to respect a truce while tho projected
October elections In Mexico are under

though not willing to express any opin
ion as to the significance of these en
tries in their bearlnir on tho settlcmmt
of tho question whether the Huerta gov
ernment is genuinely complying with the
deslro of the United States government
for a free and fair election In Mexico.

stitutionalists under General Gonzales at

Trouble Is browing In the state of Ta-

surrectionists in tho southern part of the
state are only awaiting the arrival of
expected reinforcements to renew hos
tilities. The rebels who have been beaterim?

render of tho federal forces by cutting off
