way to aid the wounded, to rescue the living i Btili under the ruins, to disinter the dead, and j to feed the hungry. The Minister of Public ' Works hastened from Rome, and, in person, ; directed the Herculean labor. More steamers took hundreds of railway workmen and thousands of soldiers. The men were soon all at the dangerous work (on account of falling walls) of rescuing the buried alive and and disinterring tlrose already dead. The King himself, a noble and feeling man. was nearly 600 miles away, but he cauie by “lightning express” from the extreme northern part of Italy, and on the ground showed his deep sympathy, animated the soldiers and workmen in their most difficult tasks, and encouraged the poor destitute and uereaved living ones. His very presence to the wounded (500 in Naples) in the hospitals seemed to act like the best of re medies and nursing. However, notwithstanding all the efforts, doubtless very many have perished, who. if it had been possible to rescue them, would have been brought out in the first three days. But the very style of the houses, and the treacherous nature of the ground, made it an impossibility. The houses are built with very thick stone walls—the floors are mostly massive masonry, covered with heavy tiles, four times the size of encaustic tiles, such as are made at Indianapolis. The roots, too. are of heavy masonry, so that when the earthquake or the giving away of the foundations by the “vortical” moment took place, the great three-feet walls open at the top. Naturally the heavy tiled roof would sink upon the floor of the upper story, its accumulated weight would sink upon the next story, and so on, bo that the cases of persons in the houses being saved were tbe executions. The wooden theater gave and yielded but did not fall, and to this was due the salvation of tbe spectators gathered there. I have spared von details—they are most horrid and sickening. In many cases entire families are cut off’, in others two-thirds lost. Five thousand people out of a population of 37.0(10 (the three towns) are known to be dead! Do you know that during our four years' war. but44,2380ut of 2,(100,000 soldiers were actually killed in battle? Os those at the front only one man out of forty-two was killed in the field, that is less than three men to a hundred. But at poor C'asamiociolo and the neighboring towns there were about thirty men, women and children out of a hundred killed! Many of the survivors, particularly mothers, have become insane from that terrible night. Many of the excavators have been killed by the falling ruins, and many have been laid aside from work by the intolerable stench arising from the putrefying bodies under the ruins. Here where l am, at Genoa, to preach for a brother minister, the sadness, as in all Italy, is intense. But no more to-day. Additional Details. Genoa, Aug. 5.-— I have this morning received other information and details which show me that I have underrated rather than exaggerated the terrible catastrophe. Some of the incidents are exceedingly touching. One poor man, a restaurant-keeper, the father of eleven children, sent one of his waiters with food to the temporary theater to fill the order qf an actor. This waiter was very fond of the youngest child and took it in his arms to the theater, and thinking it would amuse the little thing left it there with someone and went back to the restaurant. At 9:45 the whole of that restaurant-keeper’s family in that eating-house, save himself perished. Wife and ten children were crushed beneath the ruins, but the life of the little one at the theater was saved. The poor man has, like so many others, become insane. Last year I was introduced by a lady friend of ours to -the Marchioness of Lanreati, the wife of a Roman nobleman. She was a Circassian lady, with those large, lustrous black eyes so characteristic of the Circassians and Georgians. The friend who introduced us had a deep interest in the spiritual wellfare of this noble lady, and had a considerable influence over her. You can then imagine our feelings when we read, in the leading journal of Naples, that the Marchioness of Lanreati was amongst those buried beneath the ruins of the hotel Piccola Sentinelle. She had been listening to the singers in the amateur concert, and of course was in full dress. We had hoped to see that she was amongst the rescued, but the paper of tbe succeding morning contained the following, amongst other sad items: “The greatest number of victims was at the Piccola Bentinelle and there the laborers were sent in great force. After long digging they found the body of the Marchioness of Laurcati of Rome. She was much injured but still appeared beautiful.” But how strong the contrast of her personal decorations for that evening concert with the sad reality of death. “She had,” continued the newspaper, “two magnificent diamonds in her ears, and three strings .of most large and precious pearls around her throat Her rich robes were torn and stained with blood and dust, but still showed their adornments of the most costlj and valuable laces.” She doubtless had lived some time after the catastrophe, and the torn condition of her garments indicated struggles for life. Poor lady, who knows but in her terrible, hopeless condition the teachings and prayers of that faithful friend were answered, and that she had, before life was extinct, resigned herself into the arms of that Savior who had been lovingly and earnestly brought before her in Naples! Her unhappy husband, who was not at Casamiccioia at the time of tbe earthquake, was present when her body was found. 1 have just received from Naples the intelligence of the news of fifteen persons being rescued alive and unhurt, but nearly famished, after four days and more beneath the ruins. Two of these weie buried respectively 111 hours and 115 hours. The one excavated 111 hours after inhumation was perfectly insane. Let us hope that the insanity will prove to be temporary. The greatest danger now seems to be from pest mm ce engendered by the atmosphere poisoned by the exhalation from the dead bodies beneath the ruins. At one time it was thought that all who had been buried by the crumbling houses were dead, and it was proposed, as a matter of sanitary precaution, that quicklime and liquid lime should be plentifully scattered and Sprinkled over the ruins. But the King was the first to protest against any such action, saying, “Let us not hinder relatives and friends from finding their dead, and let us give the last chance to recover those who may be alive.” Many of us who knew her. felt a great anxiety to know the fate of Miss Moore, an aged English lady, who for years has lived at Otsaraicciola, and has done great good on the island by her material aid to the poor and by her efforts for their spiritual welfare, r-ibe inhabited a beautiful country seat of her own. But lam glad to see that, although her house is in ruins and she herself is wounded, her life is spared. Dr. Btorer, an American physician, and o great authority •on insanity, formerly occupied a large building railed the Grande Sentinella. That building ia wholly destroyed with all \ Italians) who were in it at the time. Dr. Storer (who, by the wav, is a nephew of Judge Bellamy Htorer. of Cincinnati) is now with his family in America. It is now considered that nearly 6,000 person* have perished, and the latest information is that it was not in fifteen seconds, but in seven seconds, that the destruction was wrought. J. c. v. FRANCE AND THE VATICAN. /K Joint Statement for the Purpose of Removing a Misunderstanding Rome, Aug. 38.—The government of Trance and the authorities of the Vatican have decided to issue a joint statement with object of removing the misunderstanding

which will likely arise in consequence of the ucn-publication of tbe letters which recently passed between President Grevy aad the Pope. The Popolo Romano, newspaper, says the town of Casamiccioia, on the island of Ischia, which was recently destroyed by the earthquake. is rapidly being rebuilt, already 154 wooden houses having been erected and occupied. It has been decided to name the streets in the town after the King and Queen of Italy. At Forio, another of the desolate! towns, houses have been erected for the accommodation of fifty-two families. A LIVELY FIGHT. Two Well-Dressed Women Quarreling Over a Doe. New York, Aug. 18. — A Paris cable special says. A rather unusual trial came up yesterday before the Tribunal Correctionel de Paris. A few days ago a wealthy merchant of Palaiseau, M. Malaqtiin, accompanied by his wife, entered a first-class compartment of a train to pass the holidays at Berney. An artist named M. Rosier, wfith his morganatic partner, who, not to disturb the domestic relations established for twenty years, shall be called Mine. Rosier, entered the same compartment. As soon as the fortifications of Paris were passed Mine. Rosier opened a sil-ver-mounted crocodile skin traveling bag and out jumped a diraiuutive Havana poodle. The weather being sultry the four voyageures occupied corner seats, riding next to the open windows. The fifth of the voyageurs, however, frisked about everywhere, over the cushions and under the cushions, and not a spot was sacred to it. Mine. Malaquin suddenly became pale with fright, and exclaimed: “Madam, take your dog to you, I pray you; he rubs against my ankles, and it is very disagreeable.” Madam Rosier retorts: “Is it possible that there is a woman who does not love dogs? She is a monkey.” Here the train came to a halt at the station ot Berne). The two ladies, both pretty and both dressed in the height of fashion, jumped up simultaneously to open the door of the compartment —Mme. Malaquin to get out and Mme. Rosier to prevent Mme. Malaquin frorfi making a complaint to the railway officials against the cherished Havana poodle. Hot words, followed by blows of parasols, ensued. The husband intervened and a veritable combat was the result. M. Malaquin bad his cheeks laid open by the sharp nails of Mme. Rosier and the poodle had his hind leg broken amid the general ruin of Worth bonnets, sunshades, ribbons and ruffles and laces. The gen d’armes interferred and took the whole party in charge, and yesterday, each of the four voyageurs was fined 200 francs and costs for a breach of the peace. THE BRITISH COMMONS. Defiant Spirit Manifested by the Members from Ireland. London, Aug. 18. —During the session of the Commons to-day, Gladstone took occasion to rebuke what he termed tbe “habitual violence” of language used by Healy (Homeruler), member for Monaghan county. He said Healy’s utterances deserved the severest reprobation, as they were calculated to stimulate national hatred, which it has been his (Gladstone’s) desire to mitigate, and, if, possible, extinguish. He regretted that Healy had pleaded the wrongs of Ireland as an excuse for his remarks. While Gladstone was speaking he was frequently interrupted by Bigger (Home-ruler), member for Cavan county. The chairman finally notified Bigger that if he did not desist, he would name him to the House. Healy, in responding to Gladstone, was very defiant. He declared there was a state of war between England and Ireland which would become physical warfare if the Irish had the power to engage in the struggle. Ireland, he said, wanted justice, and not appeals to fine sentiment. The House of Commons continued in session until 2:20 Sunday morning. The supply bill was finally finished and tiie Irish tramways bill passed to its third reading. The government assures Parnell and his followers tUat only £50,000 will be devoted to emigration purposes. The debate was very bitter throughout. In addition to Mr. Bigger. Mr. Callan and anew delegate were called to order by the chairman. DISORDER IN PORTUGAL. A Riotous Demonstration Having a Political Origin. Lisbon. Aug. 18.—A riotous demonstration was made on Wednesday last, in the town of Chaves, Portugal, against some of the officials of that place, originating, it is said, from their action in relation to some of the Spanish political offenders who had sought refuge in Chaves, and w ith whom the populace of the town deeply sympathized. The authorities refused to allow these refugees from Spain to remain in the town, and tbe citizens feel highly indignant at this action. On Wednesday the people assembled in large numbers in one of the public squares, and, after roundly denouncing tbe government, proceeded to the residences of the most obnoxious of the officials, und began pelting them with stones and other missiles. So riotous did they become that troops had to be sent to disperse them. They fired into the crowd, wounding ten of the rioters, on which they scattered. This is the second outbreak within a week, and the action of tbe troops in firing on the people has only intensified the feeling against the government, and further trouble is feared. Tbe streets have been since patroled by soldiers, and no crowds are allowed to gather. AFFAIRS IN IRELAND. An ‘'Outrage'’ on au M. P. and Hi* Friends —An Agitator’s .Speech. Dublin, Aug. 18. —As O’Beirne, Homeruler member of Parliament for Leitrim county, Ireland, and a party of friends were engaged in grouse shooting on O’Beirne’s property in tbe county, yesterday, they were approached by a mob of partially armed men and compelled to desist from their sporU At a meeting near Loughrea, Galway county, yesterday, cf the Shepherds’ League for protection against employes in the west of Ireland. Hayden, an alleged American journalist, delivered a long harangue, during which he said: “Terrible outrages oro being inflicted on you. Unless you watch the cruei landlords and get your rights from them you are cowards ” GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. Riotous Outbreak Against Foreigners in an Austrian City. Vienna, Aug. 18. —A mob paraded the streets of Trieste, last evening, crying, ■Away with the Italians and foreigners!” and “Evviva Austria!” The rioters also attacked the Italian gmynasium and newspaper office. The riot grew ont of the explosion of a petard at a fete in celebration of the name-day of the Emperor of Austria. The police arrested several of the rioters. Deaths from Cholera. London, Aug. 19.—Thirty-two persons died from cholera in Alexandria on Saturday. One of the victims was a British soldier.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, MONDAY, AUGUST 20, 1883.

The deaths from cholera in Egypt on Saturday numbered 510, including five at Cairo. Another death from cholera lias occurred at Bey rout, Syria. Investigating the Rprynt Spanish Outbreak. M a drib, Aug. 18.—Quiet having been restored throughout Spain, the various bodies of the gendarmerie engaged in quelling the recent uprising have returned to their former stations. Provincial officials are actively inquiring into the cause of the rebellion. Documents found on insurgents who belonged to the northern army show that tbe Masonic society has been influencing the army since 1877. Among the documents is a circular is>Aied by a junta from Paris, on the occasion of the formation of the Dynastic Left setting forth every contingency likely to arise. It was intended tbe first movement should be made in 1878, and another in 1881. French Operations in the East Paris, Aug. 19.—1 tis affirmed that the bombardment of Hue by the French will begin on Saturday. Admiral Peyron, Minister of Marine and of Colonies has ordered six gunboats to be constructed for Tonquin. Itisßtated that France has informed the powers that any ships attempting to land arms in Annarn will be liable to seizure. The Soir believes this is a warning specially aimed at large exports of arms from American ports. Pern and the United States. Lima, via Galveston, Aug. 18.—It is reported from Valparaiso that a telegram has been received from the Chilian minister at Washington to the effect that the United States government would recognize the Iglesias government as soon as lie holds Lima. Anew paper has appeared at Pisagna, called La Anexion. Newspaper* To Be Suppressed. Cairo, Aug. 18, —The government intends to suppress the Egyptian Gazette on account of its having printed satirical articles on the ministers. Four native papers, which have also been printing objectionable articles, have been warned that their publication will be suspended if they continue to print offensive matter. Cable Notes. The Count de Cbambord remains very weak. Hi3 brain is disturbed at intervals. There has been an anti-Jewish outbreak at Paulograd and Rostov. The disorders were promptly suppressed at both places and the instigators arrested. It is probable an Irish bishop wili go to America to raise money to supplement the £50,000 set apart by the Irish tramways bill for migration in Ireland. DAILY WEATHER BULLETIN. Indication*.

St. Louis, Aug. 19.—The continuance of the violation of the Sunday law cases before the •Court of Criminal Correction during the past two weeks seems to have increased the confidence of the saloon and small shop-keepers, and many beer and wine saloons, ami cigar and other small shops, were, according to police reports tonight kept open to-day. Governor Crittenden, who returned from his Western trip yesterday, seems to be quite indignant at the course of the saloon-keepers here, and asserts very emphatically that the law must he enforced, and that, if necessary, he will send the Attorney-general down here to assist in the prosecution of the cases before the courts.

THE TELEGRAPH STRIKE. The Knights of Labor Said To Be Responsible for Its Failure. The Money Promised "Was Not Forthcoming —The Operators Returning: to Work Where They Can Do So. THE TELEGRAPHERS. The Washington Operator* Give Up the Struggle and Apply for Reinstatement. Washington, Aug. 18.—The strikers mustered nearly a hundred strong at noon today, and marched in a body to the offices of the telegraph companies. At the Western Union office Manager Clarke was found in company with General Superintendent Charles A. Tinker and ex-Manager Whitney. Master- work man Sheibly, speaking for the strikers, said: “Mr. Clarke, we, the strikers, have endeavored to make a good fight against the Western Union Telegraph Company, but we have been beaten, and we acknowledge it. Now, I represent, as the master-workman of this assembly, a number of first-class operators, who wilt do you good service if restored to their desks. Can you employ any of them?” Mr. Clarke replied to this: “We have no vacancies for first-class men, as all those positions have been filled by men from distant places. I may need some low-priced men, but as yet canuot say anything definite.” A Throng of Applicants at New \ f ork. Nkw York, Aug. 18.—Tbe main office of the Western Union Telegraph Company was besieged from an early hour this morn- ; ing by nearly one hundred operators seeking reinstatement. There were but few women and girls among the number. Superintendent Humstone was busily engaged in discriminating between the applications from first-class workmen and those who were considered second and third rate, only the best workmen being taken back, and quite a number of operators were disappointed bv being rejected. Those operators who had been taken after the striko commenced will be retained by the company in their present positions. Since the strike was declared ended yesterday only twelve women have been received back in the employ of the company. The total number of women who have applied for reinstatement is over forty-five, so that a number are left without work. Superintendent Humstone said that forty-five men were taken back yesterday afternoon and last evening. About thirty more first-class men were reinstated this morning. Mitchell, of the Brotherhood, Says the men will return to work just as fast as the company will take them back. He expressed the belief that by the end of a week or so there would be but few of the strikers who would not be reinstated in the company’s employ. A few of the strikers who were rejected this evening were loud in their the action of the Brotherhood in holding out so long, and by that means allowing their places to he filled by other men. A Break at Chicago, Chicago, Aug. 18.—Despite the attitude taken by the local assembly of telegraphers last night, this morning witnessed what appeared to be a decided break in the ranks. Up to noon to exceed fifty had made personal application to Superintendent Tubbs for reinstatement, and thirty-nine had been given places. Superintendent Clowrv has reports from Indianapolis and Cincinnati to the effect that all opposition from the workmen is closing there, and that full forces will be on duty to-night. The striking telegraph operators kept applying for work at the office of the Western Union in small squads up to 1 o’clock, when a stampede occurred, and from that on tili a late hour this afternoon the hallway leading to the office of Mr. Tubbs was crowded. A number of those applying were refused places, for reasons best known to the officials. Practically the entire working force of the Baltimore & Ohio was taken back intact About 100 operators met this afternoon in Ulrich’s Hall at 2 o’clock, when the leaders acknowledged that the cause was lost, and advised the men to seek work. The Chicago office is now fully manned. Secretary Hughes. Pittsburg, Aug. 18.—In an interview with an Associated Press representative to-night, Thos. H. Hughes, grand secretary of the Brotherhood of Telegraphers, speaking of the collapse of tbe strike, said the condition cf the strike in many sections, especially in Quebec and the South, was one of demoralization. At many points members were in want of the necessaries of life, rents were due and evictions threatened. Money was coining in slowly. Philadelphia and other Eastern points were short of funds and it was impossible to hold out in New York longer. The charge made by some that John Campbell sold the organization out is most unjust and unwarranted. One order may have been a little premature, but ttiose in a position to know fully realize the fact that hundreds were about to return to work, and the last of next week would have terminated the strike in all but half a dozen places. A Written Application. Cincinnati, Aug. 18.—The striking operators held a meeting to-day and agreed to send in a written application for reinstatement. This was done, and then the operators made personal application afterwards. Nearly all the lady operators who struck will lose their situations, as their places had been filled. Reinstatements at Philadelphia. Philadelphia, Aug. 18.—Nineteen strikers were engaged this afternoon to be placed on duty hereon Monday. Five or six.others will leave for Chicago to-morrow. The remainder of those who made application for reinstatement were notified to call on Manager Jones on Monday. Where i Campbell? St. Louis. Aug. 18.—The strike is ended in St. Louis. Twenty-five operators have been taken back by the Western Union, only two of whom were women, and nine of the men were sent out of the city by Superintendent Baker to points ranging from Galveston to St. Paul. Mr. Shaw and others still held yesterday that the order for the cessation of the strike given by Master Workman Campbell was either a forgery or made without the authority of the executive board. The latter, of which lie (Shaw) was secretary, had held no meeting. He had received a cipher dispatch, announcing the end of the strike, hut the right signature was not affixed. What is stranger still is that the local Brotherhood and others say they have been unable to locate Campbell since the famous message. It is rumored, apparently without reason, that he sold out the Brotherhood and even left the country. Opinions were divided last night among the group who stood in the last trench. “If he has sold ua out,” exclaimed one, “he had better go to

China.” Mortimer D. Shaw said, “he has either left the country, or he may have been murdered, and liis cipher-book and ail hi* property stolen.” Arrival of Dr. Green. New York, Aug. 19.—Dr. Norvin Green, president of the Western Union Telegraph Company, arrived home to-day in the steamship Alaska. Dr. Green received a cordial welcome from many personal friends and officers of the Western Union Telegraph Company. After a short talk with General Eckert, the acting president. Dr. Green expressed himself well pleased that the strike of the operators had been brought to a close, and in hearty terms thanked General Eckert, Superintendent Tinker. Superintendent Humstone and other officers of the company for their able management of the troublesome question. HOW STRIKES ARE BENEFICIAL. Testimony Before the Senate Sub-Committee In New York. New York, Aug. 18.—The United States Senate sub-committee on labor and education resumed their session to-day. Samuel Gomners, president of the Amalgamated Trades and Labor Unions, of this city, was recalled. He claimed that the increased production by England, consequent upon the improvement in machinery, was the direct result of a reduction in the hours of labor, and in this country, where the hours of labor were restricted, as in the case of Massachusetts, where there was a ten-hour law governing ail textile industries, the statistics showed the productivity was much greater than in other States, where employers could work their men for any time. He said that the factories of Massachusetts produced more yarn to the spindle and more cloth to the loom than in Rhode Island or Connecticut. The witness said that although many of the strikes which had taken place during recent years had failed, sometimes from insufficient organization and sometimes from bad management, he thought they should not be condemned as injurious to the workingmen. Asa general rule they had always redounded to the benefit of the laboring classes. The statistics of strikes in this country showed that in a majority of cases the strikes had been successful. During the last two years there have been 160 strikes, and all were won or compromised except twenty, which were lost or unaccounted for. In the Cigar-makers’ Uuion it was customary to make an equalization of the funds of each society every six months. The recent telegraphers' strike had failed, as the first attempt of all trade organizations had done, but the experience gained would be useful to them in a future movement. Mr. Gompers denied that the socialistic element had gained control of all labor organizations in this country. It might be the case with a few of the smaller ones, but the object of the great unions was only to secure benefits for their members by mutual combinations and legitimate means. To remedy existing evils he recommended an enforcement of the national eight-hour law and the act to legalize the incorporation of trades’ unions throughout the country. The Slayer of Osceola. Philadelphia, Aug. 19. —George W. Bromley, a soldier of the Mexican war, and who, it is claimed, killed the Beminole chief. Osceola, in the Florida war, was buried at Darby, a suburb of this city, to-day. He was born in 1817. A few years ago he declined a commission and retirement with pay. He had been a soldier in the regular army for forty-eight years. Wono Shok Loo, president of the Hop Wo Chinese Company, San Francisco, Cal., indorses the great paiu-reliever, St. Jacobs Oil.
