The captain reports I hat on the night of tbe lHth t hey picked ap, in the Bahama channel, 17 survivors of the burned steamer Nuevo Padarodel Ooeano, including Captain liaz and two males.'. The steamer had a crew of 42 and about 20 passengers aboard when tbe calamity occurred. The rescued were in a terrible stale of exhaustion, and had been clinging to floating debris 1H hoars. Captain Vo s reports that about 9 o'clock on the evening of tbe 18th, while passing through Bahama channel be heard a hall coming up, apparently from the sea, stopped tbe engines, lowered a boat, and picked up five men clinging to a frail raft. Learning from the rescued tbe nature of the dlsasur that bad occurred, the Louise H cruised in the vicinity until rr into the forenoon of the 19th, and succeeded In picking .up in all IT men. From Captain Dial, of the Pajaro, the following particulars are obtained. The .steamer leit Havana on October Iti for Kenveltas, with a general cargo, including ' a large lot of grain, provisions, ammunition for the Spanish army. Everything was all right until abont 4 o'clock Saturday morning, October IS, when the vessel was In Bahama straits, between Paredon and Sobas light. The alarm of Are was sounded, when the captain, passengers and crew, who were In their beds, were aroused to ascertain tbe cause of tbe alarm, it was found tbe vessel had taken fire amidships, and whs then In a sheet of Maine. Oeuernl confusion ensued, some of the passengers nd crew running to the stern or tbe vessel and Jumping overboard lu their night clothes, with whatever small object they could lay bauds od, to serve as lile buoys, while other were trying to lower the boats. The vewtel burned to the water's edge and sunk In less than four hours There were on board 42 of the crew and some 17 or 20 psssengers. Including about six officers and soldiers ol the Spanish army. The Louise H. picked up 17 of the unfortunates, including the captain, two mates and one soldier. Of this number the captain and five or six of tbe crew were badly burned and otherwise injured. These parties when picked up bad been Hosting for H hour on pieces of plauk.afM were si most naked. Five of tbe crew took to tbe small boat, and are supKtsed to have been picked u p. One boat was wered and some 2i persons, passengers and crew, took to it, but are supposed to have been loot. Those who were picked np were in a frarfnl state, from their long exposure to thesun and wa er. Their Mesh Is torn and chafed, from the contact with rough boards, to which they clung, and against which tbe well of the sea caused their unprotected limbs to grind aud rub until great natobes of skin were worn away, while tbe salt water and fierce sunshine, combined to finish the work. Besides) they are stiff aud sore In every limb, and In their destitute condition present, on tbe who a, a pltehle sight. There was one woman, the stewraniess on tne Psarn,and one ol the survlveors relates Ills efforts I o save her. He bad her at his side for some hours, until he could no longer hold her np, and she sank exhausted, txiubtless many were aten by sharks, for the second mate and companion who we:o floating, with a plank to support them, sa a shark approaching, and managed by climbing -on lop to avoid 11 a moment, when it turned and went away. The Psjuro was owned by 11. iierresra, of ilavsna, and was formerly an American vessel, known aa tbe Niagara, and run between New York and Havana Tbe -captain and men apeak in tbe hlgbeat terms of the officers and crew of tbe steamer Louise H for the manner in which they were treated. An KugUnhmHU furnished clothing for the naked and attended to those who were hurt. Thirty-three of the passengers and crew are atlll missing. The Indian Question In Its True Light. M'akhimhton, Oot. 23. Secretary Hchura today received the following telegram from the governor of Colorado: Dkmvbk, Col., Oot, 23, lion. Carl Kchnrr.. Secretary of tbe Interior, Washington, 1). C: Information from Southwestern Colorado .satisfies me that most of Ouray's warriors were in the Thornburgh;nght. To surrender t:ie criminals Ouray must surrender his tribe, which he is powerless to do. They adhere to him lor protection only, and will notsuomlt to puulsbment. neither will they surrender. The Whlterlver Ute,whoar bound to them by the 'Closest ties. are no more guilty thsu themselves. They whipped Tnornburgli s command, and now Merrill retires. It can not be dtstulsed that the fly htlng men of thu tribe are hostile aud Hushed wlih victory, and that they are savage They take no prisoners except women. Their trophies are not banners but .scalps, ll the policy of tbe military Inactively continues our Irontier settlements are liable to become scenes of massacre. Unless the troops move against the Indians, tbe Indians will move agalust the settlors. Must the settlers be subjected to tbe peril? The general Govern meut Is doing nothing to defend our sittlementx; the HtHie csn not defend all this bonier, except by attacking th enemy. In behalf of -our fxMiple, I represent tblsdaogerto you, and urge that the Oovernment recognise that a war wltu burbarlaus now exists which Involves the lives of numerous exposed mlcliig set Heme nts. It cau be terminated only by the most vigorous and uninterrupted warfare. (HigUtJ FKkllKKICK W. Pirkiw, Governor. To this message Secretary Bchurx has telegraphed the following repiy: DXI'AKTMENT OK THU INTERIOR, l fV ABHlNUTON, D. C.OCl. 1M. j" Governor Pitkin, Denver: Your dispatch received. I intrusted with the Importaut duty of special agent to the I'tesGeueral Charles Adams, of the division ol Color silo, who a month ago was represented to me by yourself aa a gentleman of excellent character, uncommon ability and energy. Intimately acquainted with the Uts, and eminently qualified to deal with them In an emergency. He Is with them now. and his last report was tbat none of the Southern and uly a fart ol the White river Utea have been engaged n the trouble, aud ail rumors of depredations off the reservations are untrue, except the driving otf or horses from Bear Klver, aud this before Ouruy's order to oeaae lighting was received. General Adams reports ibis after having traversed Southwest Colorado the source of your information. He also stales that the captured women and children, who I have assurances ars safe, wld be dellvered. Troops should not proceed South from White river, as 1 believe that your conditions to secure peace will be compiled with. This . report of a responsible man, who haa your conddenos as well aa mine, and who speaks from personal observation, la certainly entitled to credit. The liberation ol tbe eaptlve women and children la the first tniDg to b accomplished. General Adams expect to bring them In. if not Interfered wltu. In a few days. He will then also report on the surrender of the guilty Indians. Meanwbt'e, military prepara' Ions are not relaxed, so that failure of the efforts mentioned may be followed by energetic aotlon. We are endeavoring to prevent a general war with the whole Ufa tribe, which will be a better way to protect your border settlements than by a general attack upon tbe Indiana by armed cltlreus, aa your dispatch seem to suggest. It la, therefore, earnestly hoped tbat every effort will ce made to prevent an unnecessary extension of trouble, which may be precipitated toy ineonsiderate action. (Slgntd) C. Hr-urnx. ' Secretary. A Grand Old Time Had at Yorktown, Va. York-tows, Va, Oct. J 1 This town to day presented a scene of bustle and activity not witnessed since the early days of the war. In the river below lay the flagship Powhattan, the steamers Kersearge And Marlon, and tbe training ships Saratoga and Portsmouth, ot tbe North Atlantic squadron.

SIGNS OF COMING STRIFE.
England, Austria and Germany Siding; Off Against France and Russia. Paris Correspondence New York Tribune. The Prince of Wales, for the first time in his life, baa ran through Paris without halting to dine with gay French friends at a restaurant and finish the evening at theater. Varlons reasons are assigned for the flying nature of his visit. Tbe only good one is tbat of tiord Salisbury's new diplomatic departure. To avoid appearing cir cumvented or defeated by Prince Bismarck;, who is now the piaster ot a vast agglomeration of military force, and to some extent dominates the continent of Europe, the English cabinet wishes to pass for his ally. The German chancellor, who is much more afraid of English soldiers and sailors than of the personal influence of Queen Victoria at the court of Berlin, Is not sorry to draw Great Britain as well as Austria into his orbit, and to assist the former power in arresting tbe growth of Ruwta, Not to be exposed to tbe hampering effects of the au tograph letters irom aer ontianic majesty to tbe emperor of Germany, who hold to affectionate esteem and, indeed, veneration, his good sister of England, it is agreed that, if Great uritain iotas ner arms ana noias ner tongue in the erent of France being attacked and beaten, she Is to be helped by Germany, to take Egypt and to keep It. This republlo will have too much to ao in looking alter her own defences to get in the wy o( Lord Beaconetield at Cairo and Alexandria. Official England is far from detiring tbe overthrow or dismemberment of France. baful to it as it. is the form ot Government nnder which Ihe French people chot ss to live; but, with Its hands full in Asia and Africa, and an sgncultural crisis and commercial depression at horn. It is irarortant to prevent a hostile collision, which Is more imminent than Is generally supposed. On the principal of tbe half lost being better than no bread. Down ing street will const ! itself with Egypt for what it can not help; and, as the general lections approach, Lord BaaconsOeld will o to tbe country with a new jewel, which te has obtained by nieans of the AuatroGermtn alllsnoe, to set in the crown of the Indian empress. It msy be that Lord Ilea constield calculates tbat France and Kuss'a allied may give Bismarck and his new ally harder nuts to crack than their teeth are eausl to. If they do the powers which seem ready to assume an eoiagoaistio am mas msy naturally balance one another. The proposal to nana i.ktdi oyer to a syndicate ol tbe European powors, which tbe Downing street organ now thinks so monstrous, is four year old. At the same time the Cabul insurrection gave a danger' ous impartauoe, in Lord Salisbury's eye, to the plan I have mentioned for dealing with Egyptian alUtrs, which it did not earlier present. Bismarck hs- discovered that if Kuesla were a member U the syndicate and she could not be excluded from it me would insist upon the Hues canal being neutralized tbat if, open only to merchant vessels conveying merchandise, or to ships of war not bound on a hostile mission. Hence it would follow tbat trans port vessels laden with KoglUh troops on their way to India would be stopped. Inasmuch that France draws closer and closer toward Russia, and would not oppose her proposals in tbe Egyptian syndicate. At Berlin it was adroitly given out. and it was believed at Downing street that General Chsnzy was sent at auibis.ador to HL Petersburg to enter Into ooraniuotoatlon with the Grand Duke Michael and Gen eral Toddleben; nod when he had proved to them tbat Francs and Ruisia would be more than a match for Germany, to solicit an still ance between President Urevy and the czir. A report of this nature cnuid not batexaaper aie tbe royal family ot England against tbe Republic; etd it may in a degree account for the Immoderate show ot oftiolal grief at tbe luneral of tbe late prince imperial. Good Farm Hands. ' llowa State Register. There are many young men seeking employment on farms who' do not seem to comprehend what the term "good farm hand" moans. It is not merely an ability and willingness to work. Nor is it enough tbat be Is so ouatuted with all the routine of farm bust ness. Laborers come in contact with tbe family, aud especially tbe sonsot tbe farmer, and as a matter of conscience and duty tbe employer wants kelp of good moral character, who not only keep sober and are always at tbe place of business, but who will not be teaching his sons tbe pride and hope of his life an the foul lessons ol de baucnery and crime with which too many laborers are familiar. When an affectionate and kind mother first heais her son swear ing, or learns ot his smoking cigars, she is generally informed that such things come from tbe example and teachings ef tbe hired help. A farmer not only wants his help kind to bis stock, but it is oi far more importance tbat they should be careful ot tbe morals ot his children. In hiring hands those who use uiuor or smoke should be taken oolv when strictly temperate and moral ones can not ne naa. ine practice oi smoking is serious one on a farm. It Is probale tbat nan tne urea in tne country wnion destroy barns are caused by careless smokers. It Is a dirty practice u best, but when It en dangers so seriously a man's property, he should discriminate against smoking. We acknowledge tbe legal rlgbt of any man to smoke, but tbe right to refuse to employ tnem is equally as tusk Profanity, obscenity, intemperance, dis regard of the law of God and the otate. etc should debar any and all from tbe farm and from a free intercourse with the farmer family, and we trust in employing help farmers will look more to the moral health of their risiog sons, as well as to tbe secur ity of their property. It is due to the future character ot our country tbat the farmers ebould bear faithful testimony against in temperance, vice, immorality and obscenity In all their forms. And young men wbo are loose on all these questions should be taught that on the farm, with tbe Innocent children, la no place for anything which unclean in thought, word or action. Managing Beee by Electricity. A correspondent of tbe Deutsche Press describes a method.-whloh he has adopted with success, oi overcoming the obstacles frequently presented to the rearer of the bees by tbe self-will of those interesting and prontaote insects. This is no other than giving them an el ec trio shock. Every one interested in bees knows the difficulties and dangers Involved in hiving a swarm. One is often seen on a hot day in June In the top orancnee ot a tree not to be climbed, and another in some inaccessible place seems to be preparing to set out on its wandering. If the bee-master venture to approach, all his dexterity and experience .will often not prevent him from being seriously stung. There are, indeed, several cases on record of death intervening from tbe stings Inflicted on such occasions. Herr Frelwirth, the correspondent referred to, hit upon the idea otemploying the elecL-JC fores to stupefy the bees. Trials on large and small clusters, and even on single insects, answered perfectly; the bees coming in contact with the conducting wires fell smnned and motionlees to the ground. They were then sorted and marked, according to the strength of tbe current applied. Tbe time required for their recovery, varying Irom 10 minutes to eight hours, was proportionate to the strength of the shocks, but ail came out of tbe trance ssfe and sound. Encouraged by the result of this experiment, Herr Frei win h resolved to try it on a larger scale, namely, on bees In the hive. To this end he introduced the ends ot two conducting wires into a fully occupied honeycomb and turned on tbe current for a moment. The bees soon lay on the ground, and it was half an hour before they resumed activity. Herr Frelwirth then constructed an apparatus in a small box, six inches each way, which, similar to a cartridge poach, he wore with a
strap around his body. The two wires of the apparatus were, when required to be need, fastened to rods of a suitable length, the wires, of course, al ways projecting over the ends ot the rods. These ends were then
applied to the swarm, a knob similar to that employed for a room telegraph btingat tacbed to tbe apparatus, tbat the current might be turned on at the proper time. Every one is, of course, not skillful enough to construct such an apparatus, though rone are preoluded from doing so, as Berr Freiwirtn has not patented it, , A Monstrous Infamy. Post Dispatch.

In other words these six companies re ceived from policy holders, during this period $15,1-17,720 more than they paid as death and endowment losses. The receipts from policy-holders and the expediturea for death and endowment losses do not represent the total income nor tbe total expenses.
