Ttia Kearsarge, Conqueror- of the Alabama, a Total Wreok.

FOUNDERS IN THE GOLF OF MEXICO.

•be Strike. on Ronoador Beer, Bat A1I of Her Offlceri and Grew Are Saved— Story of Her Fight with the Alabama.

WRECK OP THE KEARSABQK. COLON, Isthmus of Panama, Feb. 0.— The wooden corvette Kearsarge ol the North Atlantlo squadron is lying "broadside on" on Roncador reef oil the ooast of Nicaragua, and by this time with a moderately heavy sea pounding her on the ragged coral edges of tHe shoal Is a total loss. Rumors of the wreck reached here two days ago and .were oonfirmed Wednesday by the appearanoe of Lieut. Frederick Brainard and a portion of the war vessel's orew.

How the vessel came to strike the reef is yet a mystery as Boneador is the furthest reef from the main land and skillful navigators usually' give It a wide bertlj, shaping their courses north south after passing the dangerous point

All Handi to the Boats.

The Kearsarge struck "head on" early on the morning of February 9. She had left Port au Prince January 80 for Blewflelds, Nicaragua. When the vessel struok the reef It was soon seen that she was doomed' and all hands were ordered to the boats. Five days' provisions were taken and the crew ordered to proeeed to the Island of Old'Providence, a few miles due weet of Roncador.

AU Were Saved.

From that point Lieut. Brainard with the first cutter, went to Colon for assistance, that'being considered wiser than asking any help from Blewflelds under the present circu instances. Lieut Brainard reported to the American consul that none of the officers or crew weqe missing and not a man Injured in the wreck. He admits that the vessel is a total wreck. In answer to a cable message reoeived from Secretary Herbert Lieut Brainard says that the mail steamer City of Para is available and will proceed at once to the relief of the shipwreeked crew.

Admiral Stanton Aboard. 7

Admiral Stanton was on the Kearsarge. When the New York and Detroit were dispatched to Rio, it was made the flagship of the North Atlantic squadron and Admiral Stanton, 'after the secretary of the navy had acted on his report of the salute of Mello In Rio bay, was ordered to proceed to Port au Prince and transfer his flag to the Kearsarge and assume command of the station.

To Fix the Blame.

As soon as the ship's company has been transported to a place of safety and the fate of the Kearsarge Is definitely known a court of inquiry will be appointed to investigate the circumstances and fix the responsibility. The navigation of a naval vessel rests entirely with her commander and his assistants and the admiral never interferes. He directs the general movements of the flagship from place to place, but leaves the details of routes and management of the ship entirely to the commanding officer.

Therefore it would appear as though Commander Heyerman would be held responsible for the loss of the vessel, and on him will devolve the task of showing that the accident was unavoidable. He will look to the officer of the deck at the time of the wreck for a complete explanation of the circumstances. Exactly who was at fault will not be known here until fuller details have been received.

Scene of the Wreck.

Roncador reef is a little over 800 miles from the Mosquito coast of Central America. Between the coast and the reel lies Old Providence Island, only 78 or B0 miles to the leeward of the reef. The reef is well known to mariners In those waters as dangerous impediment to navigation. Efforts have been recently made to secure the ereotlon of a lighthouse on this point Some time ago when Warner Miller r.nd the officers of the Nicaragua Canal company were on their way to Nicaragua they were wrecked on this same point

Monk the Alabama.

The Kearsarge was one of the oldest vessels in the navy with a splendid history. The event with which the vessel is most closely associated In the public mind was Its gallant light with the Alabama, the confederate privateer, near Cherbourg, France, June 10, 16(14. As the Merrimac, which was destroyed by the Monitor, had inflicted untold damage on ithe oommerce of the inland waters and along the coast of the United States, so the Alabama had preyed upon the commerce of the union on the high seaa Even after the confederate navy had been practically annihilated the Alabama's commander, Capt Semmes, continued his depredatory work, and the destruction of the vessel was greatly desired.

The Warships Compared.

The Kearsarge' was fill feet 6 inches In length, with 88 feet beam and a depth of 16 feet She contained two en* gines of 400 horse-power and 1,080 tonnage. Her armament consisted of two 11-lnch' smooth'bote guns, one 80pounder rifle and four 82-pounders.

The Alabama was-one of three British piratical cruisers which under the confederate flag preyed upon American merchantmen. She was 200 feet long, 99 feet beam, IT feet depth and 600 hone-power, with 1,1B0 tonnage. She carried one T-lnoh Blakely rifle, one 8lneh smooth-bore 68-pounder and six 82-pounders and bad about 140 officers anp men, against about an equal umber on the Kearsarge.

The Fl«ht.

Early In June the Alabama, after a prosperous cruise in the southern Atf»niM and Indian oceans, returned to northern waters and' put in at Cherbourg, France. The Kearsarge, Capt John A. Winslow, then lying

CRA WFORDSYILLE, INPlAJjfA^ FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1894

at Flushing, L. I., sailed for Cherbourg to watch the Alabama, and on June IS her commander received a note from Capt Semmes, of the privateer, announcing his intention to fight the Kearsarge. This pleased Winslow, and consequently at 10:20 o'clock Sunday morning, June 19, 1864, Commander Winslow saw the Alabama standing out from 0 herbourg harbor, accompanied by the French ironclad Couronne and followed by the English yacht Deerhound, which served aa tender to the Alabama. The Kearsarge put to sea for a distance of miles, put about and steered straight for the Alabama, whioh opened fire at a range of 1 mile.

Fonred a Broadalde.

Winslow ordered more speed and the Alabama fired again, doing little damage. At a range of 900 yards the Kearsarge sheered and opened a broadside on the Alabama, but Semmes did not seek close action. The Kearsarge foroed the Alabama into a circular movement, throwing the Alabama farther from shore and cutting off escape. The Alabama's firing was rapid but wild, and the Kearsarge's heavy guns were trained on her waterline, while the lighter ones swept the Alabama's deck.

Seat to the Bottom*

The efteot was astounding and on the seventh trip round the Kearsarge the Alabama was winded and, setting sails, tried to reach shore. Her speed waa retarded and a few well-directed shots from the Kearsarge brought doton her flag. She huog out a white flag, but two minutes later resumed firing, when the Kearsarge renewed her raking fire, steaming ahead and lying across bows. Then came the surrender, and twenty minutes later the Alabama sunk and. her survivors were rescued by the Kearsarge and Deerhound, on which Semmes. who was wounded, took passage. The Kearsarge lost but three men.

Deserved a Better Fate.

LONDON, Feb. 9.—The Daily News has a flattering leader concerning the wrecked warship Kearsarge. It says: "The Kearsarge deserved an honored plaoe on the retired list of the navy, having had claims to national gratitude only second to those of the Constitution. Its crew had a nobler idea to fight for than had the medley of mercenaries who crowded the Alabama It was a glorious victory."

DEATH IN A CYCLONE.

Lom of life and Property In Louisiana and Mississippi. MEMPHIS, Tenn., Feb. 9.—A cyclone swept over the northwestern portion of Mississippi late Thursday afternoon and laid waste everything in Its path. Plantations were devastated, farmhouses were wrecked and the debris scattered over the country for miles around. The telegraph wires were prostrated and it is impossible to obtain particulars from the sMcken district, but it is known that two lives have been lost On the plantation of CoL W. L. Nugent, 4 miles northeast of Greenville. Miss., William Brady and wife (colored) were in their cabin, which was blown down, killing the woman Instantly. Her husband was blown several hundred feet and received serious injuries. The cyolone passed through Washington and Bolivar counties, thickly populated with prosperous farmers, and it is feared tho death list will be a large one when the details are known.

PORT HUDSON, La., Feb. 9.—A cyclone passed through this locality at 7 o'clock Thursday morning and left, death and destruction in its wake. The first place it struck was on Mrs.* S. A. de Lambres' plantation, formerly owned by Gen. Hueston. A negro child was killed and six other negroes injured. The damage on this place amounts to $5,000. The cycloiie next struck the Chambers place and destroyed five cabins. A negro girl was seriously wounded and four or five slightly injured.

FOR GREATER NEW YORK. B1U to Annex Part of LOD| bind Passed by the State Aasembtf.

ALBANY, N.Y., Feb. 9.—In the assembly the bill submitting the proposition to annex Brooklyn and other Long Island towns to the city of New York was passed and will now go to the senate, where its fate is in doubt. There was considerableopposltlon to the bill in the house, principally from Brooklyn and country members. If the senate passes the bill and the governor approves It the people of New York and Brooklyn and other towns Interested will vote upon the proposition, and it will undoubtedly be carried, as New York city will, have a majority over all the other towns. The suooess of the annextation scheme will add 1,000,000 inhabitants to "Greater New York," as the combined cities will be known. New York with the addl tlon of the annexed city will have about 2,800,000 population.

DAN'S DECISION.

Ooughlln Will Not Testify in His Own Behalf.

FEARS HIS TREACHEROUS MEMORY.

The Cloee of the Ureat Trial 1. In Sight -Wltoema Try to Prove an Alibi —An Attack on the White

Horee Theory.

WILL NOT TKST1FV.

CHIOA«O, Feb. 9.—The defense in the Coughlin talal Is about ready to close. In spite of the assertions of his attorneys and the undonied advertisement that the defendant would testify, Coughlin will not take the stand. After many consultations between Judge Wing, Mr. Donahoe, the prisoner, his wife and father, this conclusion has been reached.

Bis Bad Memory.'

Coughlin himself is averse to teatlfylng. He fears the ordeal of the severe cross-examination. He is not afraid that the examination would tfcnd to show in any way his guilt, but he knows that to many of the questions the state's attorney would put to him he would be compelled to answer In truth: "1 don't remember." Coughlin's memory has been utterly broken down by the trying events of the last four years. His severe Illness and the terrible experiences of his three years in prison have impaired his mental faculties to a considerable degree.

The End In Sight.

After a consultation between attorneys for both sides it was decided to adjourn court at 8 p. m. Thursday until this morning. Judge Wing said the defense would rest at noon today, but that time was required to arrange the last particles of its testimony for presentation. A further attack will be made on the testimony of Frank Bardeen, and Thomas Coughlin, the defendant's brother, wiLl probably be called to the stand. Dan Coughlin's brother Thomas reached the city Thursday. He will take the stand and is expected to tell all about "Smith," whoi he was and where he went to.

The Martin Burke alibi has so far been let entirely alone. Mr. Wing said that It would not be touched upon. "I have out out nearly forty witnesses," Bald Mr. Wing, "and have left the Burke alibi entirely alone. This is not because the Burke matter is unimportant,: but because I think we have been here! long enough. Our case is a strong one and needs no bolstering.

Kvtdenee la Rebuttal.

In: the introduction of the rebuttal testimony of the state Mrs. Foy, Mrs. Hoeftel and Mrs. Horton will go on the stand. Mr*. Foy will be called to Identify the letter which she said was written by her husband to a Chicago newspaper, and which, purporting to be the confession of a dying man related by a doctor who. attended him, described how Dr. Cronln waa murdered. Foy denied on the stand that he had written any such letter. Mrs. Hoertel will tell of the troubles she has had with her accusers and refute charges whloh have been made against her. Mrs. Horton will be called to testify as to the character of the witnesses who testified against her. Chief Brennan will take the stand to deny the statement made by Policeman Michael O'Connor to the effect that the chief had assigned him as a detective to a petty-larceny case. Mr. Bottum openly charged that this order was issued to give O'Connor a chance to prepare to testify in behalf of Coughlin. Whether or not the defense will introduce counter-rebuttal testimony is a matter of speculation.

Programme for the Lait Act.

The programme for the last act of the great trial has been arranged. Klckham Scanlan will open the argument for the state and will be followed by Mr. Donahoe for the defense. Then Judge Wing will speak and Assistant State's Attorney Bottum will make the closing address to the jury.

Strengthening tbe Altbl.

Mrs. Katie McEvoy testified that she staid all night at Coughlin's residence on the night of May 4. Coughlin came home about 11 p. m. and was home when witness arose In the morning. She did not testify at the last trial because she was told her evidence would not be needed, but.sinoe Bardeen's testimony to the effect that Coughlin was seen in Edgewater on that night, she had been Informed that she would be called as a witness. Joseph Martin testified to seeing Coughlin with Deteotive Whalen at 10 p. m., May 4,1889, at the Chicago avenue station.

Attacked the White Horn.

Egbert Powell, a horse dealer, swore to an alibi for Pat Dlnan's old white horse. He declared that on the night of May 4 he stood in the doorway of Conklin's saloon, in the Windsor theater building, and saw Dr. Cronln driven away. The horse, he declared, was gray, and all of his legs, from fetlock to breeching, were of a reddish color.

Police Officer James Heffron swore that Mrs. Hoertel's reputation for truth and veracity was bad. Constable James McNally swore that Mra Sam Horton had said to him that she believed Coughlin to be innocent
