A TERRIBLE CATASTROPHE.
Tht Caving In of n Wharf Thrtt Wres
I,ost Several Piriom Injured, and
Property Dmni to tbo Amoemt of
$9,000, Ktc
Yesterday afternoon a terrible aooldept , oo
curndin the southern partofthe clty,by wbiort
three men lout their lives and a large amount
of property was damaged. The long wharf
Which extends Into the l'elaware from the foot
of Mead alley, between Almond and Catharine
street, was the cene of the catastrophe, wblou
courri-d at 6 o'clock. This wharf Is, or rather
was, about f.et In length, and varying from
80 to 40 feet In wldih. Aoout 60 foot from the
river end was a sluice-way, and another about
80 feet lrom the shore end, thus virtually mak
ing a wharf resting upou three plerN. These
sluices were to break the force of the water
rushing against th piers, being supposed to be
more substantial than the other purls, by fill
ing In with dirt.
The wharf Is owned and occupied by S. & W.
Welsh a well-known business firm on the river
front, and was at tbe time of the accident well
stored with hogsheads of sugar. The greater
portion of this sugar was placed upon the north
side of the pier, that being the most substan
tial part, while the southern end was shaky
nd considered nusafe. I'iaced directly upon
the slulee-way nearest the river were one hun
dred hogsheads of sugar, upon which a number
of workmen were engaged In making repairs.
Instantly, without any warning, and with a
resounding crash, the whole mass was precipi
tated Into the river, By this disastrous occur
rence three men weDt down with the crumbling
ruin, and were lost to sight. Captain Merrl
man, of the brig J. D. Lincoln; Mr. Charles
Kdwaids, a master cooper; and John Cunning
ham were either crushed to death amid the
Clashing barrels and beams, or found a watery
grave.
Captain Merrlrnan was engngod In conversa
tion with the male of the brig, relative to the
business In which they were engaged that of
unloading the vessel. The male had Just
turned to go on board the brig, and the Captain
started along the wnurf. At this critical
moment the caving in, which did not last over
thirty seconds, took plaoe. The mate felt the
what f moving. Ho sprang to a log, which he
succeeued In getting hold of, and tbe next
moinem be was aboard the vessel. Upou turn
ing around he saw tbe Captain, with uplifted
arms, going down among the hogsheads and
dirk
Another man who happened lo be on the
wharf, a few feet west of the plase that gave
way, was partly taken down. He was resoued
after great difficulty, and found to be much
braised about bis body, besides having received
a Iraoture of his collar-bone. 81111 another
man's arms and hands were observed slicking
above the burf'ace of the ruins. He was also
rescued, and it was ascertained that he had re
ceived a lacerated wound on bis head, supposed
to have been mnde by the chime of a hogshead.
Tbe brig J. D. Lincoln and a three-masted
schooner were lying at the end of the outer pier.
The Russian barque Czarina was In tbe dock,
tbe bow Inwards or towards tbe bulkhead.
When the caving in occurred, the rush of the
water was so violent that the Russian barque
Was partly drawn into the crevasse, and the
mighty flow of the water through tbe demol
ished sluice tore a smaller vessel near by from
her moorings.
Like wild-tire the news of the catastrophe
spread around, and everybody rushed to the
scene, which was one of intense excitement.
Everybody who had a relative working upon
that ill-fated pier, or on the Delaware front,
hastened to the scene. In a short time several
thousand people were there. The shipping
close by was crowded with spectators, many of
Whom seemed to suffer Intense mental anguish,
as though they thought their husbands, sons,
. or brothers had perished. Every available spot
that formed a foothold from which a sight
could beobtalned of tbecbasm had its occupant.
Police officers of Frank Hampton's division
Were speedily in attendance, and set them
selves to work to keep the increasing crowd
back from danger.
Of the one hundred hogsheads precipitated
Into the river, not one can be found.
It Is certainly ascurtained that three men
were killed almost Instantly, while many others
Were more or less injured.
Mr. Charles Kd wards, aged about fifty years,
Is a married man, and leaves a wife and three
children to mourn his loss. They reside In a
little street running Into Wharton, above Third.
John Cunningham, aged 45,1s also married,
and leaves a wile and six children, the eldest
being 17. His late residence is 122 Bread street.
Towards nightfall five Custom House officers
arrived at the scene of destruction and took.
' charge of the surroundings. Men were engaged
In removing the hogsheads from the still stand
ing portions of the wharf, which gave symp
toms of caving In also. It being cracked and
loosened to tbe extent or 40 feet.
The sugar was bciDg unloaded from the
barque Czarina, from Sagua, W. I She had 900
hogsheads of it on board. Bach ' hogshead
weighs at least 1000 pounds, making the total
loss of sugar 160,000 pounds, which at 11 oents
per pound, would be between seventeen and
eighteen thousand dollars.
To repair the wharf will require an expendi
ture of about 84000, and additional damages
sustained will make the whole loss by the catas
trophe about 123,000.
Of those who were Injured by tbe caving In
were William Barnes, whose collar-bone was
fractured, and a boy named Porter, who was
severely Injured about tbe head and breast by
belngjammed among the boards and beams.
This morning It was ascertained that Cup
tain Merrlman's residence was in a little town
near Portland, Me. He leaves a wife and child.
All the vessels along the river front, and near
where the sad casualty happened, displayed
their flags at half-mast this morning.
The sluice was sixteen feet in width, but tbe
chasm made by th rushing waters has widened
It to seventy fret. The sinking of the wharf was
noticed yesterday afternoon, before the break
Ins awav. but no thoughts were entertained
that so Budden a collapse would ocour. The
Wharf was then examined, anu pro
nounced nerfeotly safe, and one of the builders.
Mr. Leisenby, said that by means of a boat the
Sluice could be examined, and If any repairs
seemed necessary, they should be made at once.
Too late, however, for soon after that part so re
cently pronounced substantial and safe was
Swept reslstlessly away.
The wharf was built about ten months ago.
The water around it Is forty feel in deoih. A
Kane of men are at work now In removing the

fore their descent into the river; had fallen Into
the water ana were arownea: out, we nave re
ceived word from the wharf master that the
two bovs mentioned were driven from the
wharf before the catastrophe happened. None
of the bodies of the three unfortunate men have
as yet been recovered.
How Thbt Commenced It. Two chivalrio

1 itanio torms, determined 10 visit tue country.
Vesti rday they started for a certain rural re

to pound a policeman's head, as a preliminary
measure, would cause a right setting out for

policeman Kimball, aud a struggle for the mas
tery ensued which beggars description. As a
Just retilbutlon for bis elubblngs about tbe
sconces of the Irate belligerents, the officer had
his olotbes almost entirely torn off. Finally.
Officers Moore and Johnson arrived to his res
cue, and they succeeded in arresting the bro

WfcLL Worth Re ading. Who Is there that
dees not desire to be always exempted from
indigestion to have a good appetite, a painless
stomach, a clear head, a regular pulse, a healthy
complexion ? If this meets the eye of any who
are not thus blessed, let them try IIostetteb's
Btomacii Bittkbs. We guarantee that this
delightful tonlo will restore any stomach, how
ever weak, to a healthy condition; that it will
bring back the truant appetite, and give perma
nent vigor to the whole system. The feeble and
emaciated, suffering from dyspepsia or indiges
tion in any form, are advised, for the sake of
their own bodily and mental comfort, to try It.
Ladles of tbe most delicate constitution testify
to Its harmless and Its restorative properties.
Physicians everywhere, disgusted with the
adulterated liquors of commerce, describe it
as the
SAFEST AND MOST RELIABLE
oi all stomachics. Its effects are instantaneous.
It does not require weeks of dosing before its
virtues are realized. Thousands sit down to
their meals void of appetite, eating because
others eat. The food thus foroed into the
stomach does positive barm. Instead of
strengthening the system ltengenders a variety
of ailments, which end in confirmed dyspepsia.
BOSTETTEB'S STOMACH BITTERS,
taken regularly before meals, will prevent all
this.

THIRD EDITION
Trial of John II. Sorrittt.
(Xmltnued from Beeond Edition.
Mr. CarrlnsMin Is mistaken In talkinr nf nod a. a
God of venutance and a Wnd of wrath: assuredly ml-
tnkfn.as he is In saying; that peace lias rruurnel.
God Is a God of love, and not ol wrath. But be (Mr.
Werrli k) would swk to excite no prejudice. The Jury
are under oath to do their duty, aud tuny must discard
an prejudice ana stand rorth as men wun unnioudiKl
minds. What Is John II. Hurralt charged withT In
the wide discussion of the counsel the Jury have
almost lost sight of tbe cause, and It Is ncrasary to
recur. The first count ef the Indictment cbarxes Hur
ralt with the murder of Abraham Lincoln. Tbe
becond count charges him with assassinating Mr.
Lincoln. In connection with Booth.
The third count unites the prisoner with Booth,
Harold, Payne, and Mrs. Hurralt, In the killing or Mr.
Lincoln. Bear In mind one feature In tho Indictment.
'1 he lourthcount spi-clties that tbe persons named and
oilier persons unknown did make an assault upon
Mr. Lincoln. The Jury must find whether what is
aiu in tue inaictment is true, itiscnargeu mm mo
f artlcs then and there made an assault. It puts
hem all In Washington, and the Jury must 11 nd
ir they all were here. The charge in the third and
fourth counts Is that these parlies murdered Lincoln
then and there. A re you not then tr lug Hurralt for
the murder ot Mr. Lincoln? There is Homing else in
the Indictment, aud the verdict must be gulliyornnt
guilty as indicted. The question is did Hurralt kill
Mr. Lincoln T Tl.e prosecution want to try burratt
for being a spy and couanlralor, a member of the
Southern confederacy, anything and everything ex
cept the crime laid in the Indictment. To conspire Is
one thing to do the act Is another. It is a crime to
conspire, and It Is another crime to commit the act
for which the conspiracy was formed. Wheu Mr.
Wilson made bis opening address be spoke of the
Indictment as a simple indictment for murder, and it
was not until they found their original view to war led
that they commenced to try the prisoner for con
spiracy. Tbey hrought witneases to prove the murder,
and we snuok the witnesses as thoy came, and laid at
their teel a inaas ot the most otTenslve corruption,
and thread by thread we broke the strand
wlih which they purposed to nnlte the prisoner with
the body ol the crime. Losing their case, they had to
resort to oiner measures. '1 lie united amies should
have magnanimously abandoned tbe ca then, but
there were others besides tiie United Slates standing
by, and there were others who had dreams net so sweet
as sergeant Dye's. These gentlemen wanted tne Ver
mel or a jury to cover the shedulug or luuocent blood
on a former occasion. It was not until the tint case
was not proven that these new doctrines of law
sprung up. In their various twlstngs and turnings the
prosccunun nave got tnis case in sucn a muddle ibat
it Is an Insult to argue it before the Jury. They have
themselves shown Surrati's Innncence. and hare
shown It to be a physical impossibility for burratt to
nave got here, i'hey leit the necessity or meeting
this, aud they now claim that his presence was not
necenxBrv here at the time of the murder, and tha
counsel dares the Judge to give other than such a de
cision as tie desires, ana notes up the tear what tbe
popular voice will do. Tbe Jury dare to do right. It
was an Insult to tha Court to dare him with the
popular voice. The Court Is responsible alone to God,
aud at the Court House door the popular voice ceases.
The District Attorney seemed to press the Jury very
bard that it was their duty to follow the Instructions
of the Court. Why did be press this so hard? Was
be advised that tbe Court would do as he wished ?
Tbe Jury must give a true verdict according to the
evioence, ine uisirict Aiioruey anew that the jury
Is to give a verdict according to the evidence, aud not
according to the instruetion of the Court. When tha
Jurors come to the Judgment seal of God, will It ha any
ricune jor inem mat tuey orougm a veruiot that re
sulted In bloodshed because tbe Judge so Instructed
them 7 ihe law is giveu you to lighten your path
way in the investigation, and is not mandatory upon
you.
Air. juerrick citea irom so jonnson s cases, page
3T5, to show that the Jury were the Judges ot the
law as well as ol the fads, and they might determine
tbe crime as set forth lu the Indictment. It Is tbe
conscience of the Jury, says Sir Matthew Hale, that
must pronounce the prisoner guilty or not guilty. It
Is tbey, and not the Judge, Your couscieuc-s must be
Batinlled, and say to you, "Well done, good and faith
lul servants;" and to do that your verdict must be in
accordance with your conscientious convictions.
Air, Merrick said ne would now call attention to the
propositions of law. and refer to some authorities. In
the propositions submitted, Mr. Carrlngton did not go
so tar as his colleague. Kven If it Is proved that Bur
ratt was lu Washington Cltv on the night of tha mur
der It is not enough, but they mustprove that he was
near tbe sceueot tbe murder, or at such convenient
distance as to render material aid In tbe commission
of the act. Whether Hurralt was present aiding at tha
murder is for the pr secutlou to prove, but it is tbe
rule of law that the Jury must be satisfied of that fact,
Mr. Merrick denied that each conspirator was liable
in himself for what another conspirator does, or what
ever is done by a co-conspirator; but this ts not a sub
stantive part. Witb regard to Mr. Plerreponl's fourth
proposition, sunmittea yesieraay, Air. Merrick said
be beard it with amazement and pleasure Amaze
ment, that a lawyer of Mr. Plerreponl's ability should
enunciate such a doctrine; aud pleasure, because It
was the dying struggle of an evil cause. The propo
sition referred to la that which claims that the crime
was enhanced irom the fact that the murdered man
was President of tbe United Htates.
This was In pursuance of a doctrine, said Mr. Mer
rick, now becoming popular, that ofllcers are Invested
with Imperial power. The President, ha contended,
was merely a citizen of tbe United States, and In kill,
lug him It was taking onlv tha life ot a man. no mora
and no less. No man looked witb more borror upon
inn) crime man ne (Air. nierricK), yet in cue contem
plation of law the killing was but tbe killing of one
Individual, and the charge Is murder, and notblug
but murder. But the gentleman says there are no
accessories. There is but one crime In which there
are no accessories, and that crime is treason, and in
treason the defendant Is entitled to list of tbe wit
nesses against him. If It was meant to call tbia trea
son, why was not the list ot witnesses furnished? It
is an attempt to iricjc tne man out ot his lire Dy In
dicting blta for murder, and then trying htm for
treason.
Tbe sixth proposition sets forth that tha personal
presence was not necessary, but that he could per
form his part in the conspiracy as well In Eimira as
at Washington. Was Surratt at Eimira for the pur
pose of performing his part of the conspiracy T Tbe
Erosecution uiu aui huuw bust ne was in jijimira doing
Is part In the conspiracy, and when tha defense
attempted to prove be was In Eimira, and what ha
was doing there, It was objected to and the objection
Was sustained.
Let ub deal fairly by this young man, and though tha
reputation of Joseph Holt should not be vindicated, by
the verdict of the Jury, for tbe shedding of Innocent
blood, let ns do Justice still. Tbe proposition of law
of tbe counsel on tbe other side gives rise to the ques
tion as to who are tbe principals and who are acces
sories, and also as to the grade of principals. The
principals In tha different degrees Involve dlQereut
degrees In crime; and a principal In one degree can
not be a principal In anotber degree.
Mr. Merrick cited from Hale's pleas of the Crown,
1st vol.. page 438, and contended from this authority
that he who stands by assisting is principal In tbe
second degree; but it a crime is done.ibe who counsols,
but Is not present assisting, l;an accessory. In sup
port of this posillou Mr. Merrick cited 1st Hale, page
til 5. On page 4.15 or tbe same book It is shown wbo are
accessories. On page 616 It Is shown that that which
makes an accessory before the fuel is command. The
principles referred to, Mr. Merrick contended, laid at
the very foundation of the English law, and he did not
suppose bis Honor sat upon tbe bench to report these
principles.
Hussellifc Byans' Crown cases, page 25, were also
cited from, also page 118 ot the same book. On page
Via Is a case in which several parties planned the
utterance of a forged order, ana tbe actual vtterer
alone was beld as the principal. The same principle
is decided on page S(is, where it Is held that persons
not near enough to give aid are not principals in a
crime. On page 42 1 It Is decided that even going
towards a place where a crime Is being committed,
but not near enough to aid in tha commission of tba
act, does not make a principal.

Borne eighteen months since, I was a severe sufferer
from dyspepsia. I was not only unable to take plain
food without suffering great distress, but had brooms
so debilitated as to be almost unfilled tor active busi
ness of any kind.
After trying a variety of so-called remedies, all of
which proved worthless, I was Induced, at the sug
gestion ot a medical irleud, to give Hoofland's Ger
man Bitters a trial. I accordingly purchased six
bottles, which were taken In accordance with your
directions.
Tbe result was a complete removal of all distress
ing symptoms alter eating or drinking, and a run
restoration of streugth, so that I now eat all ordinary
kinds of food with Impunity, and am able to attend
to all tbe active duties of a hirge and arduous busi
ness as well as at any period of my life: the good
euYcta of tbe Hitters were manifested before I had
taken tbe first bottle.
I have also used It In my family with the happles
results, and take great pleasure in adding my imu
many to that of the many others who have been
benebted by 1U I find great beuetlt from the use of a
bottle In the sprlug and fall. Tbey not only create
vigorous appetite, but give a healthy tone to the
lUunach by strengthening Its dltreitive powers.
If the above testimony will be the means of inducing
any who suffer from Dyspepsia to give your B liters a
trial (when It. I feel confident, will give them relief)
Ills at your service. . ,.
