A GIRL STOWAWAY..

TEN DAYS IN HOLD.

WAIST DEEP IN WATER.

Few women have suffered so much for love's sake as Miss Jean Tucker, of Portsmouth, England. She is only. 22 years of age. After spending ten) days in a black hole, 4 by 8lt., in the extreme bow of the American liner Philadelphia," she was drawn up through a manhole on Monday night. Miss Tucker, who was cover. ed with grime and suffering excruciat- ing pain from rheumatism, was then too weak to stand. During the dread- ful days of her experience the woman,; who was attired in man's overalls was up to her waist in water. Rats swarm- ed over her, when she was overcome by liess and weariness, and tried to sleep. Whenever the ship rolled she was dashed from side to side of her prison, suffering, moreover, the agonies of sea-sickness. The only air which came to her was through a Jocker overhead in which potatoes had been stored.

Of food and drink she had as much es she could take, as it was passed down to her by a stoker, for whose sake she had hidden herself white; the ship was lying at Southampton.

Once. she said, she had given her- self and the "Philadelphia up for lost. This was when a shock as of a collision against a bow-plate beside her threw her of her feet. The noise was repeated several times, and she concluded that the liner had struck

rock and was pounding upon it. The officers understood at that she had heard a whale into which the ship had run, as it failed the bow with its great tail until it was released when the Einer was backed eway from it.

once

It was through the actions of the girl's stoker sweethean. Edward Man- ning, who is alleged to have sineggled her aboard, and of one of his mates, James Fallon, that she was discovered by the officers.

Womer steerage passengers had complained of the loss of clothing and various articles. On Monday night. many hours after the ship had, been
