With this much raised, there is to be gathered in during this afternoon and evening, up to 10 o'clock, 4170. While the workers at the noon luncheon were jubilant at the success so far, it was duly impressed upon them that the hardest effort is required to complete the full $50,000 by 10 o'clock to night. v . For this reason any who may have held off until the. last hours of the campaign are requested to telephone their pledges to headquarters. Telegrams are being sent to different places today by the enthusiastic captains and their workers. Ono was sent to California, and a response is expected this evening. Many are also expected to increase their original pledges.

Later reports this afternoon IndioaU that daring this even ing about $2000 will have to be raised. 'At 8 o'olook there will be the second meeting of the day for the captains and their teams. If the sum is not raised by that time, work will be oon tinned until 10 o'clock. .

Nearly 200 passengers and crew of the Ellerman line steamer Sardinia are believed to have perished today when the steamer was destroyed by fire just af ter it had sailed for Alexandria, Egypt. The Sardinia was scarcely a mile off Grand Harbor when the first sign of fire ap peared, but with a strong wind fanning the flames the whole ship was soon ablaze and the passengers and crew had but little chance to save themselves. There were wild Bcenes on board as the flames drove the passengers to the rails. Many of the excited ones jumped into the sea before the boats were lowered. Others were trapped by the flames and roasted or smothered to death without a chance for their lives. Several tugs and other small vessols wont to the assistance cf the doomed steamer, but owing to the heavy sea and gale it was impossible for them to approach and tbey could do very little in the way of aid. The Sardinia left Liverpool November 14 with a cargo of general merchandise for Mediterranean ports and a crew of 44, with twenty first-class and six second-class passengers.' Most of the other passengers who were taken on here were Levant ites, Maltese and Egyptians. The flames originated in the foichold, where a quantity of naptha was stored. The captain and crew stood nobly at their posts serving out life belts and doing everything possible to help the panic-stricken passengers, most of whom were Arab pilgrims. There were only eleven Europeans on board in a total passenger list of 161. Up to 3 o'clock this afternoon fifty bodies had been brought ashore. Seventy persons were rescued. The dead include 100 Arabs, five European passengers and eighteen of the crew. It is not impossible that others may be saved, as it is believed some are drifting about at sea, and a large fleet of small vessels is pa trolling tho vicinity. iCHMITZ BONDSMAN CONTRACT LABORERS FAILS TO APPEAR MUSTE DEPORTED Him Kranrlncn.
