TI1E GRKAT Kf.KET SAILS.

FORTRESS MONROK.VU.,April 25.—At a few minutes after 8 a. in. Monday acloud of light smoke floated out above the big yellow forward funnel of the Philadelphia. At the same time, from the funnels of the thirty-one other men-of-war in the Roads, came other little puffs of smoke. Gradually tliey grew in volumes until by 9 o'clock the whole fleet was pufiing forth like the chimneys of some manufacturing town.

The Brazilians Arrive.

Sunday night at sunset the Brazilian fleet, consisting'of the cruisers Aquidiban, Tiradentes and Republics, came in the Roads and dropped anchor below the British fleet. The first saluting of the morning came from the Aquidiban, which belched out a welcome to the Italian admiral and ran up his flag at 8 o'clock.

At 0:15 o'clock the Philadelphia's anchor came slowly out of the water, and at the same time a slight agitation of the water at her stern showed that she was in motion. The tide at this time was at its young ebb, and the ships of the fleet lay with their noses turned up the Roads, pointing toward Newport News.

Forming the Line.

The Philadelphia moved upslowly at first and then, gathering speed, passed on more quickly toward the westerly end of the Roads. In another moment the Newark was under way behind the Philadelphia. She was followed by the Atlanta Then came the San Francisco, the Bancroft, the Bennington and Baltimore. Then Admiral Walker's flagship Chicago joined the procession. After her came the Yorktown, Charleston, Vesuvius and Concord.

Tripped Anchor.

As soon as the Chicago tripped anchor the big flagship Blake got under way, and, leaning almost on her heels, started down the Roads to assume her position of honor at the head of the star-

THE BANCROFT, (u. 8.)

board column of the fleet. The other Englishmen got under way at the same time and followed behind the Blake. As the Vesuvius, the last of the American fleet, dropped into the line, the Hollander, Von Speyk, trailed along after her. Then came the Germans with the Kaiserin Augusta, and the Seeadler. The Philadelphia, at the head of the column, proceeded for a mile and then, rounding the entire fleet, started down the Roads. The line following the Blake was composed of, besides the English ships, the Russian General Admiral and Reynda, the French Arethuse and Jean Bart, the Italian jEtna and Giovani

THE NEW YORK. (U. S.)

Bausan, and the rear was brought up by the Brazilian Aquidiban, Tiradentes and Republica.

Passed In Review.

Atll o'clock the whole fleet, in two regular lines, passed in review before the thousands on the wharves, boats and ramparts of the fort. The sight was so beautiful and impressive that the crowd looked on in silence. It took something to disturb the serenity of the scene, and it was furnished by the little torpedo boat Cusliing. When the last one of the Americans was passing the fort cheers were heard away down beyond the hotel. The crowd along the way took it tip, and in a moment the Cushing came along. The outgoing ships were making about 8 knots, and the Cushing, which can go about 24, caught up and passed them as if they were anchored.

Preparation* ID New York. NEW YORK, April 25.—The sight of the great Columbian fleet steaming across New York harbor on Wednesday next promises to be one of the grandest sights of all naval pageants. It will be close to 1 o'clock Wednesday before the entire fleet is anchored in the North river. The anchorage ground extends from West Ninety-Fifth street on the north to West Thirty-Fifth street on the south.

The vessels of the revenue cutter patrol division will assemble Tuesday

morning off quarantine station and steam at once to a position off Sandy Hook, there to await the arrival of the fleet. As soon as it is sighted the cut ters will steam out and take positions on the flanks of the fleet, and accom pany the latter to anchorage grounds in the lower bay, their service being to prevent private craft from crowding in on the ^warships or 'attempting to cross their line of advance.

On 'Wednesday morning the patrol fleet will escort the warships in a similar manner to the North river anchorage grounds, and throughout the night

will serve as videttes. This patrol cordon will be maintained during Thursday and until the president has completed his review of the Columbian fleet.

The pilot arrangements for carrying in the vessels of the Columbian fleet over the Now York bar and up to the anchorage grounds below the narrows have been completed. Pilots will be employed by all the foreign warships of the review fleet.

Ihe Great Ball.

Elaborate preparations are being made for the ball to be given in Madison Square garden, Thursday night. Of the 10,000 pefeons who are expected to be present about 700 will be naval, in uniforms of ten differebt, nations, and besides there will be military officers present in full regimentals, so that the dances will likely present one of the most brilliant spectacles ever seen at an American ball.

LYNCHED.

Oil Slight Evidence ,lolin Poierson Become* the Victim of a Mob's lf«ry. COLUMBIA, S. O.. April as.—'The excitement of the populace at the little village of Denmark, this state, over the assault upon Bessie Baxter, a 15-year-old girl, by a negro ten days ago culminated at 10 o'clock Slonday night in the lynching of John Peterson by an infuriated mob of 500 persons, who filled his body with bullets while it dangled from a tree. There is every reason to believe that Peterson was innocent and that the mob wreaked its vengeance on the wrong person. Peterson had been suspected of the crime, was hnnted by tint country people, and came to Columbia last Saturday and delivered himself to the governor, aslcingliisprotection. The governor turned him over to a constable to be taken to Denmark and wired a deputy to have present witnesses whom Peterson claimed could establish an alibi for him. Court was held in Senator May field's oilicc. Only the representatives of the press and about ten citizens were allowed to attend, two of the number being colored men. Senator Mttyficld presided. Peterson was handcuffed. He displayed no trepidation, and appeared iike an innocent man. He told a straight story and looked fearlessly at his questioners. When carried before Miss Baxter she stated that lie was not the man. A colored woman swore that Peterson had been in Dcnmar on the morning of the assault. The court adjourned without getting any tangible evidence against Peterson, the odds being greatly in his favor. But the crowd Was so frenzied that it could not be restrained, and Monday night Peterson was hanged to a tree and his body filled with bullets.

WHAT THE GALE COST.

Losses to Lake Shipping Placed at 8390,OOO—Loss of the Eddy, with Her Crew of Nine Men.

CHICAGO, April 25.—A dispatch from Cheboygan, Mich., announces the foundering of the schooner N. A. Eddy near Spectacle Reef. The schooner had 81.000 bushels of wheat aboard and a crew of nine men. It is now believed it went down in Hammond's hay. The boat was worth £70,000 and was insured for 805,000: yThe cargo was also fully insured.

The losses to lake shipping in the gale of Wednesday night and Thursday of last week exceed those of any previous storm in April that lake mariners can recall. The last of the wrecks lias probably now been reported, as a number of boats, about which there was some anxiety, have all been heard from. The money loss aggregates about $290,000, with an insurance of 1235,000. The nine men who composed the erew of the steamer Newell Eddy complete the list of the loss of life. The boats wrecked number fifteen.

Another Bank Suspends.

ST. PAUL, Minn., April 25.—The Bank of Wilmot at Wilmot, S. D., has made an assignment with liabilities of $19,000. All is due to depositors. There is $15,000 cash on hand, and in addition there are bills receivable aggregating 124,000. The bank claims that it will pay dollar for dollar and the claim is generally considered justified. William M. Sargent is president of the bank, as well as of the Bank of Milbank, which failed last week. The Milbank disaster was the cause of the suspension of the Wilmot coftcern.

Will Save Carlisle W. Harris. NEW YORK, April 25.—It may be stated with semi-official positiveness that Gov. Flower will save Carlisle4 W. Harris, the convicted wife murderer, from.execution. It may also be stated with equal certainty that this information has been conveyed not only to Mrs. Harris, but to young Harris himself.

Cold-Iilooded Murder at St. Louis. ST. LOVIB, April 25.—Mathew Rcneclter, a German butcher, 25 years old and unmarried, was shot and instantly killed Sunday night by Isaac Dickson (colored) in a saloon at the corner of Chouteau avenue and Manchester road. The killing was unprovoked and cold-blooded. Dickson was arrested.

Strike Declared Off.

TOPKKA, Kan., April 25.—The Santa Fe mechanics' strike, which has been in force since Saturday, April 8, has been declared off. The company retains the new men employed recently, but will give those strikers for whom there are no places the preference in hiring new men hereafter.

Big Failure In Tdalio.

Moscow, Idaho, April 25.—The Mc-Connell-Maguire company, the largest mercantile house in Idaho, was closed by the sheriff Monday on attachments for $100,000. The assets amount to $80,000 in stock, a large book account, and the firm's business property mortgaged for $25,000.

Nearlng the Danger Lin*.

ST. LOUIS, April 25.—The river continues to creep toward the danger line and boatmen are beginning to feel increased uneasiness. Gangs of men were employed in carrying movable property along the levee to higher ground and securing landings and bridges.

A SEW PLAN.

The .President's Proposition to New ItSjS York Bankers.

FAVORS A $50,000,000 BOND ISSUE.

They Would He 3 Per rnl. Collaterals, Kunnlug Twelve Years, Hut Hrdi emable AVltliln One Year at the Optlon of the Government.

WOULD ISSUE BONDS.

Nsw YORK, April 25.—Secretary Carlisle, acting under the personal direction of the president, communicated to the bankers of New York on Monday a proposition in writing for a gold loan to the government of $50,000,000. Conrad N. Jordan, the assistant treasurer, who spent Saturday and Sunday in Washington, brought back the proposition with him Sunday night.. He had called on a small company of bankers to meet him at a private house .tip town so soon as he arrived, and to a man they were on hand. The proposition then for the first time was made known. It was discussed informally by all the gentlemen present. The only decision then reached was that the offer should be made known to all the leading bankers at a meeting to be held Monday morning at the subtreasury.

The Finn.

The sum proposed to be raised is $50,000,000, and the government's scheme is in the nature of a collateral a per cent, loan. That is, it offers to issue a form of bond running for twelve years, but redeemable at the option of the government within one year, paying a per cent, interest and redeemable in gold. This sort of bond, of course, would not be salable, or, indeed, in any way serviceable to the banks as a form of investment. It would be nothing better than a security for the money advanced.

Not Acceptable.

In this form the government's offer was not acceptable to the bankers. They were practically agreej in requiring that the loan should be made on a bond which could be put on the market, and they recommended that at least half the sum desired, or $25,000,000, be obtained from Europe, thus recovering some of the gold that was so freely shipped out during the last few weeks. Many suggestions were made, many modifications ut the president's plan proposed, and most of them reduced to writing. These were forwarded by Mr. Jordan to Secretary Carlisle and will be made the basis of a conference to-day. at which the secretary himself will be present.

A Humor.

While the conference was going on it was reported on the street that a nuin-' ber of the bankers who were locked in with Mr. Jordan favored a plan for turning over to the government $25.000,000 in gold in exchange for legal tender, and that an announcement would be made after till' closing of business. According to Saturday's bank statement the associated banks of New York held $72,250,000 in specie. Probably more than $50,000,000 of this is in gold. If the secretary of the treasury could obtain a portion of this it would undoubtedly help him out in his policy of keeping the gold reserve in the treasury as near to $100,000,000 as possible. Their views heretofore have been that while they were willing to subscribe to an issue of bonds to tide over the interval before legislation can be accomplished they were unwilling to give up their gold ir order that the export to Europe might be facilitated.

Exports of the Precious Metal. The exports of gold to Europe to-day will aggregate $3,200,000. Of this amount $2,100,000 was withdrawn from the subtreasury Monday, of which $1 ,000,000 was paid for in treasury notes and the remainder greenbacks.

There was talk Monday that the subtreasury would soon have to break in its store of gold bars, for only about $30,000,000 in gold coin remain in its vaults. This would be an additional advantage to shippers, as bars are more economically handled than coins.y

Offers Accepted.

BOSTON, April 25.—At a meeting of the Clearing association it was voted Monday that each should gave half its reserve in exchange for legal tender notes. This sum, it is said, will amount to between $5,000,000 and $0,000,000.

ROANOKE, Va., April 25.—All the banks in Roanoke united Monday in offering the treasury all the gold in their vaults in exchange for treasury notes at Nfew York. Secretary Carlisle accepted the offer.

Canadians Interest ell.

TORONTO, Ont., April 25.—The. financial situation in the United States is being actively canvassed by Canadian bankers, and its effect on Canada and its trade with the states is the subject of general comment. Except in the northwest and the border towns of Canada the banks get very little American silver, but it is feared that the losses, if any are incurred, will be in notes and tank checks and paper between the two countries.

Booth Improving.

NEW YORK, April 25.—Edwin Booth was so much improved at midnight his physician expressed the belief that he would recover. lie said: "lie has recovered the use of his right arm and leg. The muscles of his face have relaxed somewhat, and his eyes are clearer. But if Booth has another of the attacks he cannot possibly lire through it." On the other hand, his friends are fearful that the end is near and Dr. St. Claiv Smith, a specialist who was called in, admitted Mr. Booth's clianeeB of recovery were extremely discouraging.

Miners Marching on Traoy. NASHVILLE, Tenn., April 25.—The troops w'ere ordered away from Tracy City Monday, but almost at once sent back because of a dispatch from Bon Air mines to the effect that 1,000 miners are marching on Tracy City. As a precautionary measure Gov. Turney ordered the retention of the troops.

CHICAGO. April 25.—The armory of the First regiment, Illinois national guard. Sixteenth street and Michigan avenue, was destroyed by fire at :s o'clock this morning. Two lives were lost and two men were badly injured. The scenery and stage fixtures of the Trocadero, which was to have opened April 29. was also destroyed by the fire.

The Victims.

TIH-

two lives sacrificed were those

of colored men employed as porters in the building. They were known only as George and Walter. Those who were injured are: E. VV. Lathan and Chris Wiegand. Lathan was foreman for the Edison Electric. Light company in the building and Wiegand was his assistant.

A Total I.oss.

The fire was discovered at o'clock. In less than an hour afterward only the four walls remained. Everything in the armory, including the arms and accoutrements of the First regiment, was destroyed. Not a vestige of anything was saved. It was only by circumstances almost miraculous tluit Wiegand and Lathan escaped with their lives. .' The Roof Blown

Oftiecr Frank Howard, of the Harrison street station, discovered the fire. He was standing on the east sido of ichlgan avenue opposite the main en trance of the armory at the time. He first raw a puff of smoke ascend from the roof in nearly the center of the building. The smoke disappeared for an instant and he began- to' doubt that he had seen any smoke. He was soon undeceived. A few seconds later the smoke was succeeded by a tongue of flame. Then, while his eyes were still riveted upon the startling sight, the entire roof of the building seemed to be lifted away and from the whole interior of the building poured forth columns of smoke and then fire that illuminated Michigan avenue for a mile each way.

Firomeu'H Work of No Avail. The alarm was turned in and a big force of firemen was soon on the ground. But the armory and its contents were beyond the control of all the fire departments in the world. Even when Marshal Townsend arrived he. realized that to attempt to put out the fire was hopeless. It must be allowed to run its course. All that the fire department could do was to prevent the tire from spreading to adjacent buildings.

Threatened By an Explosion. Families on all sides moved out, however, and the sidewalks were strewn with furniture and wearing apparel. Many in their haste did not even take time to properly dress themselves. Their fears were not without ground. Sparks from the combustible material in the burning building showered upon roofs on all sides and the flames made all as light as day. In the northeast corner nag the magazine of the regiment, and the police drove everybody away from the building, as an explosion was momentarily feared. The intense heat caused the walls to crack and fall on all sides, and by daylight but a small portion of the magnificent structure remained. Small quantities of gunpowder were constantly exploding and added to the danger of the firemen. The discharges came in many instances from the rifles stored in the armory.

The armory cost between $150,000 and $200,000. Seeding I)ela.ved in Jted Kiver Valley.

Sr. PAUL, Minn., April 25.—The conditions were never so favorable for bountiful harvest iu North Dakota as they were two weeks ago. But the spring is turning out to be cold and backward and portends late seeding and a correspondingly late harvest. Of the land to be seeded 50 per cent, of the work should have been done by this time, while the fact is no plowing or seeding worth mentioning has as yet been done.

Two Young Men Drowned*'

CLEVELAND, O., April 25.—Three young men, Julius Falk, Martin Arelt and Charles Liptak, on Sunday rowed out to the breakwater, where, in an attempt to make a landing, the boat capsized and Falk and Arelt were drowned. Liptak, who kept hold of the bow of the boat, was almost dead when a tug picked him off. The bodies have been recovered.

Fatal Accident to Workmen. CINCINNATI, April 25.—The foundation to an Interior wall in the Gard company's electric plant, in course of construction at Hunt street and Broadway. caused the falling of Jhe partition wall. Fourteen bricklayers and their helpers, engaged on the fourth story, fell with the debris into the basement. One was killed outright and seven were Injured, four fatally.
