THE LATEST NEWS OF THE DISASTER
Anolhrr Story Regarding the Cktiie-Keur-Admlral Markham and Officers of the Cumperdowti May lie
Court-Martlaled.
THE LATEST NEWS.
LONDON, June 20.—The Times publishes this special dispatch from Tripoli: "Tlio collision between the Victoria and Camperdown occurred at 8:41 in the afternoon. The sea was perfectly calm and the evolution of clmnghiK lines was being performed at the time. Many men were killed by the Victoria's screw. After the sinking of the Victoria a diver narrowly escaped death. He was rescued only through the presence of mind shown by his comrade, who cut his diving dress. The comrade was drowned. Solemn services for the dead were held Saturday evening. Seventeen minute guns were fired by the entire fleet."
SInrkham Under Fire.
It is understood that Rear Admiral Markham will be court-martialed with the officers of the Camperdown, as that vessel carried his flag as second in command of the squadron when she collided with the Victoria.
Admiral Tryon'B Death.
LONDON, June 2*5.—A dispatch from Malta says that the Victoria was cut in two aft of the barbette. Most of those who lost their lives were drowned by being drawn under the water by the suction. Vice Admiral Sir George Tr-

yon was picked up shortly after the vessel Went down and carried on board the battleship Edinburg, where he died from exhaustion shortly aft^rterward. The body is being brought to Malta.
Grief Expressed in the Churches. Many sermons were preached here Sunday concerning the sinking of the Victoria. In St. Paul's cathedral, Westminster abbey and many other churches the dead march was played. Throughout Great Britain special references to the loss of the Victoria were made the church services.
The Nation Mourns.
Tt would be hard to describe the feeling that prevails everywhere in the kingdom iu regard to the calamity that has befallen the country through the loss of the battleship Victoria off Tripoli. Syria, and the drowning of so many of her officers and crew. Sorrow for the dead and sympathy for the relatives and f. flds of those who went do\vn with the ship is widespread. In some quarters indignation is expressed that such an accident should occur, but. so far as known there is no foundation for this feeling. The lack of details, caused by the remoteness of the scene of the disaster, allows of no expression of definite opinion, and fuller reports of the acci-

dent are eagerly awaited. It is not believed that a full st"ry of the sad affair can be obtained ui. .1 the arrival at Malta of the Camperdown, which ran into the Victoria, or some other vessel belonging to the British Mediterranean squadron conveying survivors from the Victoria.
Will Not Try to Kecover Hodivs. It is stated that no attempt will be made to recover the bodies of those the Victoria. The water, and it would be an almost impossible task to recover the dead. It is probable that in the course of a very few days a number of the bodies will float out from the hull, and all these will be watched for and given burial on land.

LAST WKKK'8 ATTENDANCE. CJIICAf.o, June 20.—The attendance at the fiilr the past week, although good, did not average as large as that of the week before. The attendance for the week ending June 17 was 723.700, an average of about 103,400 daily. For the week ending June 24 the attendance was 703,000, a daily average of something over 100,000. The paid admissions on Sunday were 62,028.
Many KxlilMts Closed,
Even the most indifferent of Sunday's world's fair visitors could not fail to notice the large number of closed and covered exhibits. The number of foreign exhibits that were closed caused surprised comment among the sightseers. The Fine Arts building was the one building where a world's fair Sunday did not appear different from other days. All United States government exhibits were closed, whether in the Government building, which was tight-' ly locked, or elsewhere.
Religious Services Held.
Rev. Dr. Thomas preached the first sermon on the world's fair grounds before an audience of 4,000 persons in Festival hall at 3 p. m. He prefaced his remurks with the following words: "Wo all believe In an Amerloun Sabliath as a day of rest, a day of pure social enjoyment and a day of worship. This world's fair Is In Itself a groat school, a great church, and it needs no religious service to make It right to open the gates on Sunday. The services in this pluce to-day will be carried on In the same spirit and respect as they would he In a regularly ordained house of Coil, excepting that no collection will bo taken up."
The singing was conducted by the Apollo club of Chicagtf, about 600 strong. If later on religious services prove attractive tho musical feature will be improved upon, as there was no instrumental music Sunday except from a piano, upon which Prof. Tomlins performed and directed the work of the chorus. No one has been selected to preach next Sunday, but a number of local ministers will be extended an invitation and preachers visiting the fair will be asked in time to deliver sermons.
In the banquet hall of Donegal castle :n the Irish village, Midway I'laisance, Mayor Harrison in an eloquent address unveiled a fine statue of William E. Gladstone. Gov. Peck, of Wisconsin, also made a short speech. The statue, which is 0 feet In height and stands on a 12-foot pedestal, is a facsimllie of the one unveiled in front of Bow church, London, in 18S2, by Lord Carlingford, and is by the same sculptor, Bruce-Joy, of London, who was present and was introduced to tin audience.
St ran Scene on Midway.
Strange sights were witnessed in Midway I'laisance Sunday morning. The Mohammedans in the queer street began the celebration of the birtlidaj of the "True Prophet" and the manner of it filled the spectators: with wonder and at times with horror. The Mohammedan Christmas brings penance and prayer, in addition to feasting and making merry. The day had been brightened by the sun but a few minutes when the guards and early risers in Midway were attracted to the Algerian village by a mighty hubbub. All the dancing girls and the native attendants of the bazars were congregated in the restaurant and they were attired in their most gorgeous costumes. Tw lambs were brought into the room bj a couple of black men and slaughterer in the presence of the entire company, while the worshipers sang a quaint song and sank to the floor in prayer. A brazier full of live coals stood just outside the door of the cafe. The blood of the lambs was cauglil in earthen dishes and placed near the brazier. After a half hour of prayer, during which time nearly all the villagers remained prostrate on the floor, the women gathered about the vessels. One after another the girls approached the dishes of blood and dipped their hands in the warm red fluid. Some of tho women ran to the nearest wall and placed their bloodbesmeared hands against the woodwork so as to leave the impression of their fingers outlined in red. Then they rushed back to the brazier and thrusting their hands into the live coals ran with a handful to the blood marks on the woodwork and actually burned away the red stains with tho lire held In their bare hands. A few of them showed that they suffered pain, but the majority of them did not seem to mind it at all. This peculiar ceremony occupied the best part of an hour and was intended to typify the cleansing of the blood by fire after death.
The greatest part of the forenoon was occupied by tho wor.-.en iu penance and self-torture. Three of them picked up live coals and drew them across their bare bosoms. Other women threw themselves on their faces or ltnees on the hard floor. Ono woman ran swiftly at the wall of her room and linrlcd herself headforemost against it. So seriously did another injure herself that she was taken to the hospital in an ambulance. This display of fanaticism among the girls lasted until noon. Then all ('are was thrown aside and the day was given over to feasting and dancing.
Dakota's Wheat Wilting.
ST. PAUL, Minn., June 20.—Reports from North Dakota indicate that wheat is wilting under the hot 'sun and continued high winds. Already the damage may be placed at from 25 to 50 per cent. Many fields are worthless. Local showers in the James river valley have been a blessing to some, but the general outlook is discouraging. With the most favorable weather half a crop is all that cen be hoped for.
