New York, April 20. Grand Duke
Cyril has Just arrived here on bis way
to 8t ,Ptersburg, says a World dls
patch from Harbin. His Injuries are
not wvere, although he Is suffering
fni burns on the neck ands. ear
caused by the explosion on the Petro
oavlovsk and from bruises of the back
and loin caused by the beating of the
turbulent waves.
He gave the following story of his
escat. which was almost miraculous:

the Petropavlovsk the grand duke was

seemed as If the world, the skies, the
waters were suddenly .rent asunder nd
from the gulf arose a devouring cloud
and blinding flame, which burst wltn
a roar Into acrid, suffocating fumes.
Bcorched. blinded, choked, stunned.
Cyril recovered consciousness suffi
ciently to recognlxe that the Petropa
vlovsk was settling down by the head
The bodies of the dead tailors were
floating from off the forecastle deck,
whkh was awaah. All around lay
wreckage. Fallen tops hampered and
scalding steam cut off the grand duke
escape by the companion" way.
II faintly remembers that he rea
Used the necessity of making his way
aft dimly reasoning that there he was
more likely with some way still on the
ship to clear the suction from her when
she sank. He recalls clambortng down
from the brWge and maklnghls way
along the' deck through clouds of steam
and mnsses of debris.
. He remembers ascending an Incline,
with the rising water, as It seemed,
pursuing him Into a barbette in which
the water was already pouring with
such force that he was required to use
all the strength he could master to
hMi. his way out. However, he
reached a gun port and dived down and
outward with all the force of an ath
letic and practiced swimmer. His
temples were bursting with the effort
of retaining hla .breath. Then he struck
upward. At last tho tight came and
he reached the air. While he filled
his lungs he supported himself, on a
of floating wreckage which he
seised and to which he assisted another
truMlln swimmer. .
Then the grand duke looked around
for the Petropavlovsk. She was not to
h Men. The sea was quite calm and
except for the gentle rise and fall of
the woodwork to which he was cling
Ins with his companion, he was quite
motionless. There remained only a few
dimmers, some floating wreckage ana
corpses. The grand duke estimated
that he was In the water about one
minute and forty seconds before reach
ing safety.

But never a cent was drawn out for

qualified to take rank with . Mark

the way across.
A monkey and a porcupine had a
dispute and the porcupine wrote Its
monogram on the monkey.. But the
greatest sport to the animal keepers
was a duel between a crocodile and a
python.
The crocodile is a pet of Mrs.
Szarvasl of the Sells-Forepaugh show
and Is called Sappho. The python, so

story said, Is named Phaon.
