LIVES LOST By a Wreck on Carolina's Cruel Shores. The Steamer Straitharly's Terrible End. A Burlington Flyer Wrecked in a Snow Storm. Lives and Money Lost In a Wisconsin Collision. Terrible Injur! ?s to Members of tbe Train Crewi. Sortolk, Va., March 25. A Bteamer which went ashore a mile below Chicamicomico life-saving etation, on the North Carolina coast, last ni?ht, is the British eteamship Straitharly, bound from Santiago de Cuba to Baltimore. Out of a crew of twenty-six, nineteen were lost, inclnding all the officers except the second mate. The steamer will bo a total loss. The eteamship Straitharly was a British Teasel of 1.2J6 tons. She was commanded by Captain "Wynn. She left Baltimore Feb. 25 for Havana, where she arrived March 7. fc'he proceeded from Havana on the 13th for Santiago de Cuba, where she arrived on the lfcth. She was on her homeward trip from Santiego to Baltimore when phe went on the North Carolina coast with such fatal result. It ifl difficult to imagine a more dessolatecoastthanth.it upon which the unfortunate steamerStrathair y was wrecked. For a hun Jrod miles , south from Cape Henry there extends a strip of sanl cast up from the sea and separated from the main land by many miles of broad salt sounds. Sometimes this strip broadens to a width of a few miles and then shrinks to a mere thread of pray sand. The inhabitants are few in number, scattered in solitary dweUincw, and without means of communication with the world save the occasional oyster sloop or fishing boats that at irregular intervals cruise alonjz the sounds. The living is derived from the sea and the strip is nearly barren of vegetation. On the seaside long sand-bars run out and reefs abound, bo that the vessel wrecked upon this coast is cure to strike out a distance from the shore and be speedily torn to pieces by the tremendousllaiteras furzes that have made the vicinitv the dread of navigators for a century and have strewn the white beaches with the timbers of numberless vessel and countless sailors. Tbe lift?-savin service is one of the best in the country, but owing to the character of the coast the most useful of theirappliances tbe life line thrown from a pun can rarely be used and the crews are compelled to rely larpely upon their surf boats, which they manape to launch and land with marvelous dexterity in the fierce Eurf which constantly rolls upon the beaches and bars. Communication between this city and the scene of the wreck of the ttrathairly at Chichamicomico life-savin p station, is interrupted by a break in the covernment telegraph cable across Oregon inlet. This is an arm of the sua about three milea. across just south of Kitty Hawk. All information from the wreck has to be brought across this break In a boat and only two trips are male a day, and only then when the weather permits. The last trip was made this morninp and all of the available tacts have already been sent. No further information will be received till morning, when it is thoupht the names of the lost and saved will be secured. An ordor has hern sent from the acnt of the line in Haitimore to forward tho?o of the crew who were saved to that city, and they are expected to arrive here the last of this week, when a full story of the wreck and its causes may be eotten from the second mate, who is among the seven who were saved. A SERIOUS WRECK. Two Hilled and Several Othtrs Injured In a Collisfon. Milwaukee, March 25. A serious wreck occurred on the Northwestern road at Racine junction last night by which one man was Killed, two dangerously hurt and three others more or less injured. A mail car, bagcage car and five freight cars were destroyed by fire. The pecuniary loss is estimated at $oO,000. The collision occured at midnight between a northbound Chicago cv Northwestern passenger train and a south-bound freight train on the tame line. The latter train consisted of sixty-four cars and was under such headway that it could not be checked sufficiently to allow sidetracking. Both trains came together on the main track at the depot with the above result. Following is a list of the victims: WILLIS ANDREWS of Fon Da Lac, firemn of freight train, killed. JOHN GKOUUEN of Milwaukee, passenger fireman, badly acalded, since died. Martin Rae of Milwaukee, freight engineer, prohably fatally injured. Den.nis E. IJt'RKE of Milwaukee, pnuenjjer engineer, dang? rontly injured. I. T. Dp. Hilva of Chicago, express messenger, badly bruised. J. Bower of Evar-ston, 111., assistant express messenger, turned and cat. In the safe of the American express company, was $10,0)0 in currency for northern banks from Chicago, fco intensely hot did the fire become that when the safe was opened at noon today half the currency was found burned to ashes and the other half partially burned. The express company will lose about $,000 of the money. Enough can be saved out of the other half to insure its redemption. Several thousand dollars worth of jewelry was melted and run into one lump. The V. is. express company also lost a large amount of money. Not a pound of express or mail was saved. WRECK ON THE BURLIN QTON. The Flyer Collides with m Stock Tram, Killing Two Man. Surrox, Neb., March 2. The flyer on the Burlington road crashed into the rear end of a stock train four miles east of town at 7:30 this morning while running at the rate of fifty milc3 an hour. It was snowing hard at the time and the flyer had two engines pushing a snow plow. , The stock train was not seen by the engineer of thy Jtassenger until the trains were twenty t apart. The anow plow ran under six cars loaded with cattle, throwing them to the Tinht and left of the track and thu seventh car landed on top of the engine. The second engine was thrown 25 feet to the aide of the track and fell on its side, crushing and instantly killing Engineer Roberts, of Plattsmouth. Henry Udell, bis fireman, was caught in the wreck and the steam literally cooked his legs, arms and back. The passenger cfrsWhej left the track, but were not over

turned and none of the passengers were injured. It is said the cause was a wrong order piven by the train dispatcher. The cattle in the car which landed on top of the enpine were released by building a bridge twenty-five feet long and driving the animals down. Only one steer was hurt. OUTRAGED AND MURDERED.

A Shocking and Mysterious Tragedy al Camden, X. J. Camdex, N. J., March 27. In a clump of trees near Eighteenth and Federal-sts., the dead body of Nellie Evan, a woman about forty years old, was discovered early this morning by Peter Meyer, who was on his way to work, and the appearance of the woman led to the belief that she hod been knocked down, outraged and left dead. Coroner JefTerig drove immediately to the scene of the supposed murder. At the scene the body of the dead woman could only be reached by the coroner forcing himself through a crowd of hundreds of men and women whohad gathered around the body. The woman lay on her back, and on her left cheek was a bruise, which evidently had been recently made, while her forehead was much discolored. Her clothing was disarranged and her red shawl and hood were thrown a few feet away. In her pockets were a few trinkets and only 5 cents. Pending a post mortem by the county physician the body was removed to the morgue. The constable is busily engaged in investigating the case, and will probably have several persons under arrest before night. The Courier reporter learned that the woman was seen in the neighborhood leading to Merchantsville yesterday evening, and that she had been drinking with several men, one of whom was 6aid to be "Curly" Daly. Several persons are willing to swear that they saw a negro lead the woman up to the spot where she was found dead, and he Is now missing. It is a fact that the woman was in company with a nero, but whether he killed the woman remains to be proved. THE BUST OF WASHINGTON. t, It lies lieen Masquerading; In Boston m the Portrait of Sain Adams. Boston, March 23. Boston hangs her head a little. The cause is a report of a special commission transmitted to the legislature by Gov. Ruse'd, showing that a bust, long standing in Doric hall in the state house, marked Samuel Adams, is really that of George "Washington. The commission, composed of Edward G. Tor ter, Samuel A. Green and John C. Ropes, was appointed under a special act of last year and the standing of the members as historical scholars carries the greatest weitrht "We have had the bust removed from the pedestal," they report, "and carefully examined on all sides. No record can be found at the state homo showing when it was obtained or when it was placed thjre. Tlie bust appears to bo of Carrara marble, and was apparently noa'ie near the beginning of this century. The pedestal is of American marble and bears the incised and gild inscription, 'Samuel Adams.' The question arises by what authority the name of Samuel Adams became connected with this bust. No good authority can be found. In the absence of any early inscription or documents we are left to a mere Conjecture and tradition on the one hand, as opposed to the strong presumptive evidence on the other, that the bunt is really that of George Washington. The tradition connecting it with Samuel Adams is exceedingly meager and untrustworthy. No one seems to be responsible for its origin. "o one ventures to defend it. The features of tho bust do not correspond with the well-known portrait of Adams. The theory which we feel compelled to adopt, after careful and proloneed investigation, is that this is the bust of Washington." HAU TO HAVE A DEMOCRAT. Secretary Fester Appoints R. M. Johnson to a Treasury I'nsltion. Bt'KEAr OF THE SENTINEL. ) No. 141 S New Yohk-ave N. V Washington. D. C. March -27. J Richard M. Johnson of Franklin, Ind., chief clerk in the oifice of the auditor of of the treasury, for the poatoflice department during the Cleveland administration and also during the first year of the Harrison administration, was today appointed to a lucrative position in the treasury department by Secretary Foster. Dick is a democrat from way back, but ho gets there all the same. The position is an important one, aud, A3 a better man was needed than the' are now getting through the civil service, Mr. Johnson was selected to take it. The white house parking looked beautiful today in its coating of snow. A single wheel track np to the entrance showed how scarce were visitors. Asa matter of fact Senator Pol ph was the only official caller and his mission was simply to present some Oregon friends. The unotlicial callers were ex-Representative Owen of Indiana p.nd Y. 11. Mosby of Virginia, a brother of the guerrilla chief. Secretary llalford is still 'absent at Thomasville, Ga., where Mrs. Halford is lying ill. The lateet report from the sick chamber was received yesterday morning by mail. Tho information was that tho lady was no better, though no worse. The secretary's leave is indefinite. He may be absent several weeks. A HORRIBLE STORY. Alleged llrutal Trmtuiriit of Men on Araerl can Cattle Mhlpa. London, March 27. An inquest was held in the London hospital yesterday on the body of a Russian Jew named Racien. From the evidence it was learned that he arrived in Liverpool last week on an American cattlo boat, lie complained that he had been cruelly treated on board the vessel, lie said that he had bem compelled for seven teen days to sleep on the deck and live on bread and water, although he was ill. His companions testified that many such cases occurred, because destitute men wanting to go back to their nativo land were compelled to work abnormal hours and eat miserable food, and were paid ?1 on lan ling. A verdict was rondered In accordance with the evidence, the coroner remarking that if the testimony was true a horrible etaie of alTair existed on these etcamers. CRAZED BY JEALOUSY. An Orejon Rambler Kit's Two Women and Sth-ots Himself. SroKAKE Falls, Wash., March 27. A double murder and suicide occurred early this morning at the Casino variety theater. Charles JMiott,' a faro dealer, who was occupying a box near the stage, drew his pistol and fired several shots at the performers. One bullet took effect in the left breast of Mabel Pe liabian, killing her almost instantly. Another bullet lodged in the bark of Carrie Sinitb.alaoa variety actress, inflicting a fatal wound. Elliott then p'aced the muzzle of his revolver in his mouth and blew his own brains out His shots were intended for an actress named Lulu Durand, who was on tbe stage at the time, and of whom Elliott was insanely jealous.

THE WAR CLOUD GROWS. Franco and Russia Preparing to bo Aggressive.

Great Disquietude Caused by the New Alliance. The Czar Will Soon Resume His Old Eastern Policy. Significant Favors Showered Upon a French Attache. An' Unusually Interesting Budget of News from Berlin. Berlin, March 2S.Copyrighted.Semiofficial organs are advised to ignore the renewed war alarm and not to notice reports coming from various sources which indicate early aggressive action on the part of France and Russia. Persons high in ofiicial circles refuse to say more than that the intention of Russia to abandon her attitude of reserve has been for some time known to the chiefs of the Dreibund and that nothing can happen for which they are unprepared. The recent indiscreet prediction of Signor Crispi, ex-Italian premier, that war was certain to occur during the current year has elicited from the ofiicial papers at Vienna a comment to the effect that Signor Crispi is no longer in the secret of great events and has become incompetent to prophesy, and that what he says ought not to disturb the tranquility of Europe. This sort of denial, however, is not reassuring, as tho fallen statesman is known to possess still ample information regarding everything relating to both the political and military powers of Europe. The Cologne Gazette today asserts that it is the intention of the czar to initiate and develop an offensive policy on the old lines by claiming supremacy in the East. It is believed in Bulgaria that the murder yesterday of M. Baltscheff, Bulgarian minister of finance, is the opening of a gameof secret intrigue, preceding open conflict. The conferring by President Carnot of the grand cross of the legion of honor upon Baron de Mohrcnhcim, the Russian embassador at Taris, is merely a part of the general effusion of the alliances and of the endearments exchanged between France and Russia. The czar today decorated M. Briois, military attache of the French legation, personally presenting him with an order set with brilliants and also giving him a rare malachite vase and a portrait of himself and the czarina. M. Briois will shortly return to Paris. He is fully conversant with Russia's projects for the mobilization of her forces, and upon his return to Paris some scheme for simultaneous action will bo agreed upon by tho French war office. It is for this reason that the czar has conferred upon him a distinction never before accorded a, military attache. According to the Cologne Gazette, Maj. Moulin, who succeeds M. Briois as French military attache, will continue to arrange details for the mobilization. In an interview had with Gen. Obroutcheu today by a representative cf the Relrhs Bate, tho general declared that the unceasing rapidity of the Russian preparations will enable tho czar before tho closo of the present year to abandon his attitude of peace und to force any issuo which he may deem necessary to obtain his ends. Under the head-line, "The Strategic March of Russia Westward," the Jlrirhs Bate details the concentrated movements of the Russian troops canton ned in the Poland, Padolia and Volhynia provinces, which now form one vast camp and to which constant arrivals, drawn from the battalions of the reserve, add strength. - Meantime the public anxiety is not great. Official watchfulness has been thoroughly rearonsed, but has not as yet created a strained interest among the people. The Vienna press, like that of Germany, maintain unuBual reserve, while the statesmen on whom rest9 the fate of tho dreibund continuo to affect to believe that no crisis is imminent. A government bill, which is now in course of preparation for submission to the landtag, dealing with the Gael ph fund, will bring into publicity the hidden history of Prince Bismarck's disposal of large sums. If the freissinnige party get a chance, the whole necret of the payments to the press and po iee by Prince Bismarck's agents, if they were drawn from the fund, will become a matter of public nccount. The liberal papers are already trying to trace the payments. The Pottdamer Cttrrepondeiiz affirms that Ilerr Krenger, chief of Prince Bismarck's secret police, received 50,000 marks from the fund. No one suggonts that the prince used the money ibr other than political purposes, but the organ of Herr Ritcher, the liberal leader, demands that the ex-chancellor be held responsible and be compelled to make restitution for the 3o0,000 marks given Dr. Von Boetticher Rnd for other payment drawn from tho fund. Tho Frrimnnige Zeitung urges that a civil process bo issued against Prince Bismarck. The candidate of the froissinige party for the reichstag in Geestemunde, finding no support, has withdrawn, leaving the contest to Prince Bismarck and tho socialist's candidate. Nobody doubts that the princo will receive a great majority. The warmth of his reception at Altoona and the extent of the preparation throughout the country for the celebration of the seventy-sixth anniversary of his birth, on "Wednesday, prove the popularity of the prince. The committee hero has arranged for a torchlight procession, in which over 3,000 of the ex-chancellor's adherents desire to appear. The society of German industrials will present tha prince with a Bilver table servico of immense valuo designed by the artist lleyden. The subscription for this was eo copious as to enable the committee to purchase land adjoining Friedrichsruhe, which will be added to the prince's domain. With growing doubts as to the emperor's ca low wisdom being a poor subtitute for the ex-chancellor's genius and experience, the national sentiment reawakens toward him. The emperor will co to Stettin on Tuesday next to inspect the war ships now being built there. Thence his majesty will go to Lubeck, Kiel and Altoona to visit Count Von Waldersee. It is reported that Count Von W aldersee will chortly assume command of the Sixteenth army corps at Metz, and that Count Von Munster. th German embaspador at Paris, will replace Prince Von Ilohenlohe-Schillingfurst at Strasburg. M. De Crais, French embassador at Vinra, it is expected, will succeed M. Herbette, the French embassador at Berlin. Tho Vatican has finally advised the centrist leaders to accept Baron Hermann as the chief of the party in the landtag. The baron is personally favorable to the Children Cry for

Vatican, but will not command the support of the center. Events must indicate who Dr. Windthorst's successor shall be. The report that a treaty of commerce with Austria ha9 been concluded is premature. The delegates will resume the discussion and negotiations at Vienna on Wednesday. THE SUB-TREASURY PROJECT.

A Defense) of tha Seheme Why It Is Advocated. To tiie Editor Sir: TnK Sentinel is very properly opposed to class legislation, as stated in a recent editorial. Bat is the alliance sub-treasury scheme class legislation in any sense that all Iecislation is not class legislation? No measure can be conceived that is not of more benefit to somo than to others. In such sense all legislation is cIbfs legislation. But this is not what The Pextinel means in its editorial. The sugar bounty is a fair specimen of class legislation. Is the sub-treasury echeme to be compared to the sugar bounty? On the contrary, there is no mensure of general legislation that would perfectly and equally benefit the whole American people. Under its provisions every man who owned a foot of ground couM borrow, from the people, greenbacks to the fair cash value of his property, paying (as I insist) but 1 per cent, interest. I put it at 1 per cent., because for twenty-seven vcars we have lent second hand greenbacks to the national banks at 1 percent. Put it that one man in live owns real estate or take any other number, for that matter, in the absence of exact, information everybody who remembers the flush tin es of 18(v5 to 1870 knows that tho four men who have no real estate to pledge to the government for a loan would get the direct benc-ut of the loan made to tho, fifth man in constant employment at high wnges. Pour three thousand Millions of treasury notes greenbacks into the hands of the real estate owners of this country and within three months there would not be an unemployed laborer in America. Not only so, but there would be the most direct and powerful incentive to that anchor of good citizenship eo lauded by statesmen the ownership of realty that practically .every man could and would own his home. Now could any legislation that would bring about bucIi a state of things as universal employment of labor at good wages, coupled with final universal ownership of land be termed clasti legislation ? Nor need the machinery of thi9 law be cumbrous or expensive. There are fewer than 3,000 counties in the United States. One per cent on Sto.000,000,000 is $30,000,000. Even one fourth of 1 per cent would pay all expenses of salaries for assessors and comptrollers, clerks, etc., and leave a snug sum for the government. True, no national bankers nor railroad magnates could make colos-al fortunes in a county run upon snch a system of finance. But the masses would be comfortable and contented. Lets try it. IL W.

MORE MAFIA SENSATIONS.

THE GRAND JURY'S INVESTIGATIONS. Ind lot earn t of ft Prominent Party Expected Many Persons Threatened Governor Nlcholls Makes an Official Report of the Killing- to Secretary Blaine. New Orleans. March 24. The grand jury held another long session today, and from the witnesses examined it is evident that the jury is getting deep into the bribery bueiuces. In fact, persons in authority say, with an air of mystery, that theto will ba some sensational developments before the end of the week. Tbe sensation will doubtless be the indictment of a prominent party not heretofore mentioned in connection with tho unsavory part of the case. As telegraphed last nightO'Marey was indicted yesterday for being an accessory before the fact of the attempting to bribe jurors. McChrystal, his accomplice, has told his master's part in the transaction in M-hich the prisoner CgureJ. Detective Collin's lias told the secrets of O'Malley's office. Another city detective has kept constant Hatch on O'Malley's office and reported who entered and O'Malley's doings have evidently been well ehadowed. Many of the witnesses of the last few days have been surprised to find themselves callei and pro'ested that they knew nothing until theygot into the jury room, 'lhe eybteni of espionage extended to the witnesses for tho state. Some of them were threatened aad the state also learned of efforts to spirit some away. The etato had the advantage of knowing the relative importance of its witnesses, while the de-fens-e merely guessed at their knowledge. The defense, therefore, wasted considerable time on witnesses the state cpuld well atiord to ppare, while the witnesses realiy wanted were well cared for. Anyhow, the methods of the defense were well known and thwarted at many steps, although the skill of O'Malley and his henchmen proved eminently successful, as far as the jurors were concerned. The state is now obtaining full knowledce as to the latter as well and the grand jury will create an interesting Yecord before it finishes its work on the llennessy case. O'Malley has not yet been brought back, although a capias has been issued, and it is not likeiy that be will be really sought for until the grand jury is through with the investigation. A priva e letter was received today from Tim AUingham. the gentleman who impersonated O'Malley to the Memphis reporters. He is a grocer acrops the river and fell heir to few thousand dollars which he went North to spend with his relatives. He was in Memphis enroute to Arkansas with a lady cousin and her child when several parties who had seen him in New Orleans conversing with O'Malley, recoznized him a? the latter. He denied the identity but they instated and he took up tho joko and carried it through. There have been no Mafia threat within the last few days, although Mayor iShakeapeare's wife is uaid to have been stopped on the streets by several Italian and threatened with the destruction of her home and family. THE OFFICIAL REPCRT. Interesting Letter from Governor Nlchol'-s to Secretary 111 nine. "Washington, March 24. Secretary Blaine received a letter from Governor Nicholls of Louisiana this morning in regard to the killing of eleven Italians in the jail at Xew Orleans, of which this is a copy : Exf.cctivf. Department tivf. Department ) "K or Locimaxa, UE. March 21. 191. ) frTATE Baton lioct; The lion. Jaiuea G. Llaine, Secretary of State, Washington, D. C. ; Sir: At a late hour on the 15th insfc. I received a dispatch from yon having reference to the forcible hreakinsr ou the 14th of the jail in this city and the killicif of e levra parsons c online il therein under indictment found in the criminal courts for the parish of New Orleans. You state I to me that it had been represented to the president by the minister o( Italy accredited to the government of the United f-tat en that among the killed on that occasion wire three or four subjects of the king of Italy. The telegram disclosed an apprehension oa the part of the minister, evidently shared by the president, that the disturbance was a continuot's and swelling disturbance which miQt involve the lulirm subjects in New Orlaus. I have reason to believe that the hope expressed by th president that I would co-operate with him in maintaining the obligations of the United States toward Italian nibjects who riiiifht be within the perils of excitement, and that further vi.lor.oe and blondhel iniht be prevented, was based upon that belief. The president further expressed the liODO that U ol'enders might be promptly brought to juitioe. On the 16th instant I telegraphed you that there whs no excuen.ent in the city at that time, and that I saw no reason to anticipate further trouble. I also stated that the act on taken was directed acainst particular individuals and that the race or nationality of the parties did not enter as a factor into the disturbance. A wc?k has passed since the date of my dispatch and the opinion then entertained as to the termination of the trouble has proved to have been well-founded. The men killed, as I have stated, were confined in prison under indictments found in the , criminal district court for parish of Xew Orleans; the she ri 3 has ma le his return ot the facts to that court; the judee thereof has charged the grand jury, now hi session, in regard to the matter, and the whole subject is, I assure you, now under invalidation by that body. I am satified thnt most of the persons kii'ed were American citizens, but it is probable that two or three were Italian subjects. I have the honor to be, very respectfully, Francis T. Niciiolls, (Jovenor. Govenor Nicholts' letter is written on official paper and is dated at tho capital of tho etato. It is evident, however, that it xvm written in Xew Orleans, aj it speaks of the killing ns having occurred at tha iail in "tliid" that city. Secretary Blaino has pent a copy of the fetter to Baron Fava, the Italian minister. The department of 6tato Mill not take further action in the matter of tho New Orleans tragedy until the Italian minister makes some further communication upon tho fmhjcct. He has cabled the p.uhstanco of Governor Nicholl'a letter to his covernment and the impression at the state department is that he will await the action of the New Orleans courts before making further representations to the etate department.
