THE CRONIN TRIAL- Wi\mm From the laoer Circle f . Clau-Da-Giul. ,' f!.i i CLOSING IN THE NET. Oronin Waa Suspected of Being a Spyâ€" The Jury Oarefnlly Guarded. A Ohiokgo despatch ot Wednesday says : At the opening of the ooart in (be Cronin trial this moruin^ State's Attorney Longe- necker asked for an attachment (or Edward BpeUmao, of I'eoria, the district oflioer of the Clau-na Gael. Mr. Longeneoker said BpeUman bad been served with a sabpcL-na, and had agreed (o come when called (or. Two telegrams has been sent to him, bat be had not responded. The attachment was issued. 1 VEHV UECBET TKIINOU. The first wiinesa was Dennis O'Connor. He testified that he was a memberof Camp 20, Clau-naOaol. At a meeting of the oamp on Feb. 8th the witness said he heard Thomas O'Connor state that he had heard read in Ur. Cronin's oamp the min- ority report o( the committee to try the executive body of the order. The names of the members of the executive body were not mentioned, aad witness said he never knew who oo'/iposed the triangle. Then it was voted to appoint a committee to go up to Dr. Cronin's camp and investigate the matter of the minority report which Dr. Cronin had read. THE LAUP BECCUU HOOK. Patrick Nolan, Financial Secretary of Camp 20, produced his record book, and from it testified as to the nninbaru borne by CoDghlin, Cooney, O'Sullivan, Beg^s and Buri-e. Witness further testified that be was present at a meeting of the camp on the night of May :ird, the day preceding Dr. Cronin's death ; that BeggH presided ; that there was a call for the ruport of the beoret Committee appointed February 8ih, and that Beggs replied that the committee waa to report to him alone. Witness said that on the Sunday following Dr. Cronin's disappearance be met Burke and Cooney •bout 3 o'clock in the afternoon in a â- aloon. This was before witness knew of GroniK'a disappearance. They went to another saloon and played cards for a couple of boon. AN OBOAMI/.ATION " IICN IIV UCOt'EK." The next witness was Captain Thomas y. O'Connor, who created excitement in Camp 20 on the night of February tith by â- ayiog he had heard read in Dr. Cronin's oamp a report of the committee that tired the triangle. Captain O'Connor said Andrew Foy was the first man to speak. Foy arose in his plaoe in the camp and addressed the Senior Guardian, and stated that he aroie under a terrible strain, that after the disclosures ot Le Caron in London the organization, as an orgaiiixation, was no more. That there were four British •pies in the organization, and that it should be reorganized, and every one thiit was in the organization who had the slightest taint or suspicion attached to him Hboold be expelled, "I," continued the witness, " arose and stated that I waa not surprised at hearing the gentleman talk as he had done ; that I knew by positive information that the organization was run by a parcel of rogues known as our exucative body ; that they bad xjiiandered our funds even to the extent of 8100,000, and not alooe that, but they had sent our best men across to England to have them put behind the bars. I Slated positively that Le Caron waa an agent of our executive body and received pay from them. At the moment I was interrupted by three brothers with a demand to tell where I got my in- formation. 1 did not like the first brother who spoke to me, and I said, ' Vou demand nothing,' when there were two or three other brothers who joined in the demand and there was a general uproar, so I turned around to the Senior Guardian And I said to him, ' If the Senior Gu«rdian demands of me where I got my Informatiun I will tell him.' Ue did not say anything. Then there was more uproar. 1 turned a •eoond time and a third time, and said if the Henior Guardian would demand where 1 i(Ot my information I would tell him. Then I stated I had heard a terrible report of the trial committee in Buffalo, and that I had also seen a written report, UUO pages of closely written long hand, about the trial, and that I was positive of my statement. At that instant Dan Conghlin, member of the oamp, arose and eaid, ' Mr. Guardian, I move you that a seorot committee of three be apiiointed to find out the source of Captain O'Connor's information.' These were his words. 'I hen there was aome one else on his feet, and the Senior Guardian rapped the oamp to order, as it was such a tumultuous time, snoh turmoil, •nd somebody spoke, and he said, ' I will hear no more of this subject, ami I will appoint a committee.' " â- â-  Who was the Senior Oaardian at this time?" ••JobnF. Beg^a." TDK TllUL COUUITTEB'S BEPOBT. On oross-examination Captain O'Connor •aid be did not aay in bis speeoh of Febru- ary 8ih that Cronin read the report of the trial of the triangle, nor did ha say in what oamp it was read. He saia that after he was subpconaed to appear before the coro- ner's jury he mot Begi>8, and asked him if he should disclose the stcrets of the organ- ization. Begga told him to go ahead, as they were already pnblio property. The witness said he bad heard of the " Inner oirole" as applied to the executive body, bat never in oonneotion with individual oamps. O'Connor said he had been at work on the Orouin case without pay up to September Ulith, when he was apjioioted a polioeman. On re direct examination it Has brought oat that thHre were five or six membera of Oamp 20 present when the witness made hia speeoh on February 8th who were in the other oamp when the report regarding the triangle trial was given, and were therefore ognizant of the facts as to the !ir oamp in which it waa given and who gave It. He explained it was a verbal, not a written report. There were eighteen or twenty membera cf Camp 20 in the other oamp when the report was msde. That ^ report, said he, waa made by the late Dr. , Orouin, in Cronin's oamp. flnbseqaently I C^ronin ahowed the witneai the written report. The next witness, Henry Owen O'Con- nor, a member of Camp 20, described the prcccodinga at the meetings of February 8th and 22od without bringing oat any new points. At a snbseijuent meeting, however, be said Dan Conghlin oame to bim and said information bad been received in Chicago that a confederate ot LaCaron waa in the organization, and indications pointed to Dr. Cronin as the man. The witneaa stopped him at that point. THE TUIANULE LENOUNCKD. Police OQioer John M. Collins testified that he had been a member of Oamp '20. He said that at the reunion given by 22, Dick Powers and Pat MoOarry made B;ieechea denouncing the triangle. Then Ueggs said this tirade against the triangle and Alex. Sullivan must cease or there would be war. That Sullivan had many friends there. Patrick MoGarry, Senior Guardian of the Clan-na-Gael Camp in Lakeview, instituted by Dr. Cronin, and of whioh Dr. Cronin was a member, was the next witness. He described the reunion meet- ing on Feb. 22nd, without adding ni.tterial inlormuiion, and be told ot a visit h)- made to the house ot O'SuUivan on the Sunday following Dr. Cronin's death. He thern questioned O'SuUivan very cloaely about hia contract with Dr. Cronin to treat his men in case of accident, and described the twitching of O'Bullivan's mousiaohe. UOW THE JLIIV JMBE. The oonnty furniahes the jury with seven rooms and a private dining room. One of the oeven apartments is uaed as a reception room, wbere the wives of the jurymen ouaasionally visit them in the evening. Another apartment is used as a smoking room, and still anothar is aaed for a general silting room. In the latter are kept the piano and other muiioal iiiatra. ments. There is also considerable gym- oaatio apparatus, such as dumb-bells, Indian oiubs, pulley -weights, etc. Both [he gymnasium and piano are (arniahed by Juror North. The only papers the men are allowed to read are the Mew York illustrated weeklies, whioh are first carefully looked over by the bailiffs, who cut out all the references to the Cronin case. Four times a day the jurymen form in line and march two by two to and from Judge McCoonell's oourl room. This peculiar proocasion does not fail to draw a crowd, and usually by the time the line reaches its destination it has grown to twioe its former size. PauBiA, III , Oct. 31. â€" Edward BpeUman, the prominent distiller and District Dele- gate ot the Clan-naCiael, who is wanted in Chicago as a witness in the Oronin trial, baa disappeared. Nobody seems to know where he is. The Trial ProgreislDg. A Chicago despatch says : When the Cronin trial was resumed today, oonosel lor the defence moved to strike out all ot that part of Patrick McGarry's evidence given yesterday, in which McUarry de- scribed his visit to the houde of defendant U Sullivan after Cronin's murder, and at wbiuh time he ijueationed O'Kullivan about liis contract with Cronin. After argument 11 was decided to postpone a decision on the point till Ibis afternoon, in order to allow counsel time to present authorities. George Ueilly, a barkeeper, was called. Ue testified that in the latter part ot Maroli Conghlin, O'SuUivan and others were in the saloon talkiov politics wben Conghlin said a certain North side Catbolio was talking too much, and that if he did not keep his mouth shut he would get the worst of it. The State's Attorney sought to introduce the correspondence between Beggs and Bijellman. Mr. Foster, attorney tor Beggs, said he was ready to admit anything that Beggs ever wrote, but that he ooald say nothing about letters written by any one else. So the matter wect over, pending the appearance of S(>ellman. W. P. llalttield, eulesman for Ilevell it Co., told of aeUing to "J. B. Bimonds " the fnriiiture taken to the tlat at No. 117 Clark street, and subseiiuently conveyed to the Carlson cottage. Tbe only new point developed waa that Slmondasaid the furni- ture waa " for temporary use." THE ULODU HTAINKU TBDNK IN COUBT. The trunk in whioh Cronin's body was carried away was brought into court. Uate- tldld leslifled that it was similar to the one sold to Simonds. On cross examination he said he could uul ewsar it was the identical triiak, because the firm kept such on hand always, and perhaps other dealers did also. It came out that Mr. Forest, of oouusbl for the defence, had bought saoh a trunk from the witness. Witness oould not swear positively that the furniture in the Cailston cottage waa the same furni- ture sold tn simonds, but he said it waa pieeisely like it. KJIIMKII ATTACKS ON CBONIN. After recess the jury was excluded and the matter uf striking out McGarry'a evidence ae to what was said daring this visit to O' inllivan's house on the Sunday following the murder was taken up. 1 he court finally decided to exclude all the talk regarding a former attack on Dr. Cronin This waa not satisfaotory to the defence, and another fiow of eloquence reanlled. Finally the cross-examination of MoOarry was resumed. " Major" John W. Sampson afterwards testified that about two years ago Conghlin tried to hire him to " elug'' Dr. Cronin. The witness, on cross examination, ad- milted that Coughlin had arrested him three or tour times, once tor robbery, that be had bodn convicted ot passing counter- feit money, thai he waa a gambler by pro- fession, but denied that he followed Mr. Blaine through Michigan when he was making epeeohea last fall, or Governor UiU, or Senator Thurman tor the purpose ot picking pockets. He said he went to some o( these places tor the purpose of securing sporting privileges, lie naively explained that he waa " playing de shells," which ia a variatian ot what is known as three-card monte. THE AUTlIOniTIEB WEBE WATIUINU. William Lynn said be waa with Sampson at the time that Conghlin and Sampson had n oonversatioo, the purport of whioh he did not hear. Joseph C. O'Keete, Dr. Cronin's taUor, said he attended a meeting ot Camp 30 iu September, 1888. After the meeting he bad a conversation with Beggs about Oronin and Alexander Sullivan. The wit- nesa said : We spoke first in referenoe to tbe onion ot the two rival taotioni ot the Order. Beggs said he did not have much confidence iu tbe new £x-:cative. Then tbe Trial Committee was diacosaed, and he said Cronin was not the proper man to pat on the committee to try Alexander Bidli- van. I said Cronin did not have as un- savory a record as James Rogers, of Brook- lyn, another one of the Trial Committee. Beggs then eaid Cronin bad adnuitted Coughlin as a member of Camp9U without a formal initiation, and had farnidhed bim with passwords. I told him Cronin was too sincere a patriot to do anything of that kind. I eaid I would aek Cronin in referenoe to it. Begga then said Oronin was not a fit mar to belong to Irish societies. On crossexamination it was brought QUI that Beggs objected to Cronin's being on the committee to try tbe Triangle because he was au enemy ot Alexander Sullivan. Cornelius Flynn, who was with Beggs and O'Keete, oorroboritted Keefe'a testi- mony. Several other witnesses gave un- important testimony and the court adiourned until to-morrow. An afternoon paper aays that soon after the disappearance of Cronin tbe State pot spies upon Camp 20, and a man oonoealed in the hall during some ot its meetinga took notes ot its proceediuga. Among the visitors in the court-room to- day was Mr. Wm. Glass, ot London, (Jot., Sheriff ot Middlesex coanty. A Winnipeg despatch ot Thursday eays : George Baker, Aaaistant State's Attorney, ot Chicago, drove out to Stony Mountain to-day, accompanied by Mr. B. M Howell, and had a talk with Gillette, tbe imprisoned forger. Gillette gave a detailed acconnt of Burke's confession to him and other prisoners. There were aome new points ot intereat. Gillette said that Burke contiua- ally insisted on making uonUdants ot bim and the other prisoners, and of It n cried like a chUd over the mnrder. He told how Dr. Cronin was lured to tbe Carlson cottage and slugged, and repeated the atory wired yesterday. Cronin was attacked while entering the cottage, and made a greater fight than hia aasailanta expected. It has been ascertained from other sources that Burke had a narrow eaoape from assaasination at the hands ot the Clan-na-Gael before his arrest in Winni- peg. A letter has been found which waa poated at East Selkirk shortly after the murder, referring to Barke, iu whioh the writer s>id he would carry out tbe instructions of the order, but insisted on having bis own way and time, if he was to succeed in getting rid ot Burke. This shows that Burke was to have been aaaar- sinated while travelling to Liverpool. Burke had a oonple ot Fenian trienda in Winnipeg, who secreted a myalerioua tin box tor him. This contained Cronin's clothes, wbioh were of the finest make. There is no doubt, from Gillette's statements, that the oontradiotions aa to the disposal of Cronin's body after tbe murder arc easily explainable. Mr. Baker had an interview with HeCfer yesterday afternoon, bat he ia pretty well convinced that Ibis man knows notbinf; but what he has picked upon the street or from persons who vitited him while in jtU. Gillett is tbe only man who is at all likely to tell a story which would go down with a jury, but Mr. Bakor ia very muob afraid that his removal from the penitentiary to a Chicago witnesa box would be a ditlioult matter. Baker hopea to gel away to-mor- row morning. ^ â€" Oermaiiy Unit 8Ie«p In Armor. A Berlin cable of Wedneaday aays : During the debate on tbe budget in the Keichatag to-day Uetr Vernors refnted a stalement made by Uerr Bebel, the Social, ist leader, that Ruaaia ia Germany's hereditary fof. The Sovereigns, he said, are nnittd in desiring peace, and he hoped their effortc to maintain it would be auo- ceaiftil. Uerr Von Bennigaen said Germany's position iu Europe compelluj her to wear heavy armor, and she would stake every- thing to enable her to wage a possible war victoriously. Ue favored the appointment of au Imperial Minister of Finance with undivided responaibUity. Dr. WindthorsI indioated the willingnesa ot the Centre party to grant money for deteuoes it necessary. It is rumored the Centreista will introdnce a motion pro- viding for the exemption from military aervioe of candidates for the ministry of all denominations up to the age ot 26, and for the total exemption ot ordained ministers. -^ A "Jerry" Building Oollapus. A Paterson, N.J., despatoh says : A large new three story briok dwelling, nearly completed, and owned by Charles 0. Farmer, fell at Paasaio City to-day with a terrific craxh, burying sixtSen workmen. Everyone about the plaoe was more or leea injured. The workmen were dug out of the debris by hundreds of reaouera, and carried to a near-by oottage, which waa temporarily converted into a hospital. Three are not expected to recover. The scene around the improvised hospital u pitiful. The owner ot tbe building ia severely condemned, aa it was a Budeusiek affair. Serious Results of the Bomb Explosion A Franklin, Pa., deapatoh siys : The bomb exploaion at the Galloway sohool. house on Friday, by whioh so many sohool children were injured, is having more serious results than expected. The explo- sion was the result of oriminal careless- ness on the part of two young men, who filled a gas pipe with giant powder and allowed the ohitdren to play with it. Over thirty children were in close proximity. Eighteen were injured. Seven are in a critiual condition, and it ia tboaght four will die. The men are tmdet arrest. A Yoanit Matderer, A Plymouth, Mass , despatch ot Thurs- day aays: The Grand Jury to day toand a bill against Joseph Debarros, ol New Bed ford, foi manslaughter. Debarros, ia tbe 8-year-old Portngaese boy whoUst Septem- ber was charged with oausing the death of a playmate in a cranberry begin Plycooutb by stabbing him with a jaok-kolfe.

An A nti-Jate Doubla Wedding at the Flad- mont Kxpoattlon, An Atlanta, Ga., despatoh gives fuller particulars ot the double public wedding as follows : Henry W. Grady gave away two brides, giving each a sonading smauk upon tbe lips. Governor Gordon, who waa standing near, followed suit, and the crowd yelled itself hoarse. All this occurred at the Piedmont Exposition. it was AUianoe day, and the central event was the doable marriage ot enthueiaatio young Alliance men, the bridal party being arrayed in saita of ootton bagging as a symbol ol their contempt for the Jute Trust. There was a magnificent pyrotechnic display on tbe grounds at night. The grounds are almost large enough tor a world'a fair, bat they were covered with people. There are eighty thousand Alliance men in Oeorgia, and it seemed as it every one waa on hand with his family. As Jones, Livingstone, Polk and Gordon spoke there were cries of " Bring on tbe brides," and when at last the speakers' stand waa cleared and the band struck up a wedding march the crowd went wild. The stand waa between the grand stand and the race track. At a given signal the two bridal parties came ap. Each pair were seated in a carriage draped in cotton bagging and flags, drawn by tour white horses, which were covered with the cotton bagging. The two car- riagea were headed by bands, and at tbe stand was another. The bridal carriages were followed by others, some of them be iog the finest private turnouts in Atlanta. Mr. Urady and the directors of the exposi- tion received tbem at the stand and two eminent divines stood ready to perform the marriage ceremony. Both brides were good lookingâ€" one ot them particularly so. "The grooms were rather plain looking. The gowna ot the brides were trimmed with aatios and laoes until they looked quite well, but the ootton bagging suiis of the men were rather " jay." There was nothing partioolarly diatmative about tbe ceremonies, except the commeat ot the crowd. After it was over there were oon- gralulations, and then the show was made particularly interesting by a contest be- tween the cotton bagging cowboys and the jute Indiana, the cotton boys winning, U oouras. The persons married are Mr. Walker Downa, a Newton county merchant, and Miss Mamie Winburn, ot Cooyors, and Mr. Utury R. Wells and Mies Alice Whaley, ot Owinnette county. They will be given a reception to-morrow at the grounds, when they will be presented with the gifts which have been sent by all the exhibitors at the exposition and merchants from all over Georgia. Governor Gordon waa booked to perform the marriage ceremony. An in- vestigation ot tbe law, however, made by Chief Justice Bleckley, revealed tbe fact that the Governor had no anthority to officiate. In the emergency Khv. Dr. Bar- nett, paator of the Central Preabyterian Church, and Rev. C. H. Morrison, pastor ot the First Methodist Cburuh, were substilated. A remarkable scene oc- curred in the city on Whitehall aueet an hour later. As the bridal pro- cession was returning the proprietor of a leading dry goods house offered them $50 each if they would eat dinner from a table placed in the show window. The propo- sition was accepted and thousands of people packed the street to watch the SI range wedding teaat. A notable incident of the gpeeuhmakiog waa tbe presentation ot a subatituts tor bagging by President Livingstone, ot the Georgia Slate AUianoe. Ue said : " If we admit for the sake ot argument that tbe fight against jute has been a failure, it has done oue thing it has developed the genius of the South. I hold in my band a piece ot cotton bagging made from common stalk and a piece ot rope made from the sama stalk. It can be sold tor tour oenis a yard and weighs two pounds to the yard. (Prolonged applause.) The faroaer can come to Atlanta, buy a tew castings and make tbe msubine at home with whioh to manufacture thin bagging. He can manu- facture it iu the winter and in wetwealher. It will be worth 91,000,000 to the South. When the farmer learns to produce tbe neoesaariee of life at home and not send to Illinois and the Northern States for them he will ceaie to he a hewer of wood and drawer of water. The farmera don't seek to oppreas the merchant or manufacturer, but merely to lead them into the channels of legitimate trade." He olosed by saying : " Let the farmers of the South produce what they oonaume, save money, educate their uhildren, and when the boys and girls grow up to man- hood and womanhood marry them in ootton bagging." Bow the Burglar Was Fooled. A Chicago despatoh says : A burglar entered the residence of Gen M. High on Monday night, and, seeing his image in a large mirror, supposed it was another man, and ao drew his revolver and blazed away at it. Mr High and his family were at dinner on the Qoor below, and wereslartled by the bbootiog and the noise ot breaking glass. Mr. High grabbed a poker and beaded a procession up the stairway, but when the room waa reached nothing was found bat tbe broken mirror and an open window. Progress at Mlonragua. A San Juan del Bur despatoh says : The Nicaragua Government ia disposed to found a city to be called America at tbo Atlantio terminus ot the Nicaragua Canal. Engineers have gone to San Juan del Norto to survey the locality and set off building lota. Great enthusiasm prevails over a new gold field discovered along the banka ot the Prince Pulka Biver, 170 miles from Ban Juan del Norte. The field covers an area ot aeveral square miles. A LITTI.K OHDRCH "SaBaF." A Mrthodlat Panoa Tasked Out of A Catholic Fnlplt-Mob Law Prevalla. A Topeka, Kan , despatch of Thursday aays : Adjutant-General Roberta receivad a lelegrtm to-day from tba Mayor ot Axtall asking that militia be Bent at once to qaell a riot there. General Roberts ordered out Company " G " of the Third Regiment at Maryeville, and left on the first train tor the scene. Only meagre particulars have b«en received. Axtell, a town of 700 p-M>ple, ia settled largely by Roman Catholics. On Wednesday a Methodist minister named Jobnaon, from tbe eastern part of the State, arrived at Axtell to bold a revival meeting. In tbe audience were a number ot Catholics. Tbe miniater assailed tbe Catholic Church so abusively that a Catbolio present called him a liar. He continued his remarks, and four Catholics rushed to the polpit, and taking the preacher by tbe collar threw him down. In a moment tbe palpit waa surrounded by an angry mob, and a general row enaaed. AltDough the Catholics were in the minority they wera too mocb for tbe Methodists, and ano- ceeded in throwing tbe preacher and two others out ot the house. The whole town was soon aroused. Four Catholics were arrested and put in the city prison. Thia enraged the Catholic population, and they organized this morning to aaaist their imprisoned assooistes. Tbe town of St. Bridget, a tew miles diatant, is settled entirely by tbe Catholics, and it is reported the whole town is organizing to go to the rescue ot the Axtell Caiholios. Tbe Mayor says he is powerless to control the mob and tears a conflict between the two ele- ments. A TWENTY dollar gold pieoe is offered by the New York World to the person who will send it the best recipe tor keeping a hus- band at home evenings. Tbe necessity for aome each recipe is evident to all. Busi- ness, the dob, the theatre nnd the lodge prevent a large number ot men from enjoy- ing tbe Hooiety of their wives daring the long winter evenings and it the World can find a recipe to remedy this evil and give the lonely wives an opportunity to again become acquainted with their husbands they will confer a lasting favor upon the wivea at least. ATHENS KN rXTK. â- mperor William TIiIIh a British Maa- of-War and Talka Some. An Athens cable of Wednesday says : A atate ball was given at the palaoe laal night whioh was attended by ii.UOO ijueats. The Royal and Imperial personages present marched in prooeesion throngb the ball- room. Emperor WUliam, escorting tba Queen ot Greece, led the march. They were followed by the King ot Greece and the Empress ot Germany, the Czarowits and tbe Princess of Wales, tbe Dake oC f parta and the Priooees ot Baxa-Meiningen, and Prince Henry of Prussia and his aistcr, Princcas Sophie, the bride cf the Duke v/t Sparta. There were only three danoea. Emperor WiUiam to-day paid a viait to the British fleet in the PirsQus. Emperor William took luncheon today on board the Britiahfisgship Dreadnaught. In responding to a toast to biu health he ezpreesed his pleasure and pride at being created an Admiral ot tbe fleet by Queen Victoria. From hia boyhood, when be rambled in Portsmouth dockyard, be had taken tbe deepest interest in the fleet. "I oongratulate you," he said, "upon the result of my inspection. To-day Nelson'a famous aignal is no longer oecesaary. Yoa all do your duty. We, aa young naval nationa, come to England to learn from the first navy in the world." In concluding he asked for three cheers for tbe English navy. The German oSicera heartily reaponded. Emperor William wUl start for Constanti- nople tomorrow afternoon. The British and German fleets will escort him from tbe Pirnas. HABOSHIP'! UF THE 8BA. Disabled Vessels aud tttarvlng Crews I.a(k to Their Fate. A New York despatoh of Monday night Bays : The Old Dominion stuauisbip Wyanoke, whioh arrived here from Norfolk to-day, reports that yesterday, off the Dela- ware Capes, the schooner J. G. Morse, of Portland, Maine, was spoken dismantled and disabled. Her captain aaid tbe larger part ot his orew had been washed over- board, and hia vessel was unable to reach port. '1 he mate had died of exposure. Tba captain and twc sailors were the only onea on board, and they were all sick and aoaroely able to work. Captain Humphrey, of the Wyanoke offered to take the acboonar in tow, but the sobooner'a captain declined hia offer. Ue asked that enough men be given him to take hia vessel into port. Captain Humphrey was unable to comply wiih the requeat. A lifeboat was sent with provisions to the schooner, but the sea waa ao rough that tbe attempt to reach her waa abandoned and the vessel was left to her fate. Five miles further north tba Wyanoke spoke two disabled Italian vea- sels. Tbe barque Western Belle, from Ivilo, l'J7 days out, arrived here to-day dia- mantled. Four ot her orew were diaabled by injuries received during rough weather. Coarteoos Chluese. Principal Grant Euya that the Cbineaa idea of courteous treatment is carried into every walk and phaeo ot lite. He would rather travel in a third claaa oar in China or Japan than in a second class here, because there a traveller ia never, never annoyed by tobaooo chewers, smokera, swearers or other ooarse and offenaiva habits. He waa introdaoed at certain places as the head ot a aniversity, with ever so many aoholastio degrees attaohed to him, and thus received a personal applica- tion of their reverence for learned men. The profoundeat salaams ware made to biin, the choioeat tea waa brewed tor hia refreshment, and be was honored in otbar ways. He described the tea as something delioions and exhilarating, not at all like what ia in use here. Nothing ia put in to flavor or modify it.
