on behalf of the striking dock laborers, and
the directors of the dock companies. The
Cardinal submitted to the directors definite
proposals from the strikers lor the settle
ment of the wage question.
The joint committee appointed to consider
the proposals of the strikers have arreed

AUSTRALIA'S GENEROSITY.
The subscription received to-day from
Australia for the strikers' fund amounted
to 4,52.1. The Daily Telegraph, comment
ing oil the strike, says: "It is not too much
to say that 2,000,000 has been squandered,
while there are not wanting prophets
who declare that the port of London
will never recover its lormer prosperity.
'We scarcely think that, and while, if the
casual laborer is well out and replaced by a
higher and more organized set of workers,
something will have been done toward the
evolution of the fittest."
Mr. Burns went at midnight to the Surrey
commercial docKs to endeavor to induce the
men not to hinder a general reconciliation
to-day. He urged upon them that they
could fight out the dispnted points after

FOR GOLD AND SILVER.
A Notable Speech Delivered Before tho
Bl-Mrlalllc Congress nt Paris
A Thorough Exntnlnntlon or tlio
Vnrlous Proposals Necessary.
Paris, September 13. At the session of
the Bi-metallic Congress to-day Dana Hor
ton made a notable address in defense of
bi-metallism. The common organization
has decided that no proposal shall be sub
mitted to a vote. The Congress will, there
lore, not adopt any resolution. The mem
bers of the Congress visited, the Bank of
France to-day.
Mr. Horton declared that the monetary
constitution had been wrongly understood,
because in the past there was a superior
coinage of silver and an accessory coinage
of gold. The example set by England gave
strength to the idea of excluding one of the
metals from the privilege of being legal
tender. At the time of the metrical reform
it was thought desirable to have a single
metal in order to fix the limit of the metri
cal system. As a result of this situation,
there was created a kind of orthodoxy.
The supporters of the anti-silver doctrine
did not desire to demonetize silver, s-ince
Levasseurs' proposal was to coin silver at
the market price. He therefore thought
there was reason for congratulating the En
glish and German reformers, whose adver
saries are now professing the right path.
In conclusion he declared that what was
now necessary was a more thorough exam
ination of the proposals in favor of silver in
order to arrive at an agreement between
scientific representatives.

mind to shut off the New Tork Central from
Toronto, if possible Last night President
Van Home, of the Canadian Pacific, had
a conference with the Hamilton (Ont) City
Council. He was accompanied by Chief
Engineer Jennings, of the road. The offi
cials of the road pledged themselves to build
the road through Hamilton, provided the
city would assure them of the right of way.
This the Council promised if the option of
saving where entrance was to be effected was
allowed the city. The arrangement was
agreed to on both sides, and the approach of
the Canadian Pacific to the Niagara river
and its connection with the Home, Water
town and Ogdensburg Bailroad to New

This move is to cut off the New York
Central from its proposed move to reach

MORE OCEAN RACERS.
The Canard Line Will Bnild Two Bit Ships
Next Year.
tBT CAULB TO THE DISPATCH.!
Liverpool, September 13. It has been
definitely determined by the Canard Com
pany to build two new ocean racers next
year. The success of the City of Paris, of
the Inman line, in breaking the
record previously held by the Cun
arder Etruria, has, in the minds
of the managers of the Cnnard line, made
such a step necessary. The precise dimen
sions of the new ship's have not yet been de
termined, out it is not denied that thev will
be monstrous twinscrew ships, built tb beat
the record, possibly with an eye to making
a four-day record.
The superiority of twin-screw ships in
rigidity, handiness, speed aud economy has
been sufficiently demonstrated by the three
twin-screij ships now in the Liverpool
trade, and the Cunard people do not mean
to experiment further with single screws.
If the Cunarders are to build a ship to
beat five days, she will have to steam at the
rate of 23.3 knots for the entire passage.

New York, September 13. F. "W. Gess
wein, the well-known millionaire importer
and manufacturer of jeweler's tools and
supplies, was ruthlessly shot down and
killed by Christian Deyhle this morning.
The shooting took place about 10:45 o'clock
in Mr. Geswein's private office.
It was the result of a business quarrel
over a reflector, which Deyhle claimed he
had patented. The two men had been at law
about the patent, and. Deyhle had been
been beaten in his suit He had been ac
customed to call upon Mr. Gesswein fre
quently at his store, iu John street, but
alter his defeat in the courts he discon
tinued his visits.
A FATAL VISIT.
Nothing had been seen of him for the past
six months until 9 o'clock this moraine.
when Devhle walked into Gcsswein's store
and inquired for the proprietor. He was in
formed that Mr. Gesswein had not arrived,
but was expected shortly. When, half an
hour later, Mr. Gesswein entered the store
Deyhle gave a nod of recognition, arose, and
approaching him, said that he came on pri
vate business.
"All right," replied Gesswein, "come
into my office." Thereupon the two men
went up stairs into the little private office
on the second floor, where the tragedy oc
curred. They were alone, with the door
closed. No one knows exactly what oc
curred. Mr. Charles F. Koester, one of the
clerks in the store, has his desk right next
the thin board pirtition which separates
Mr. Gesswein 's office from the remainder of
the room, and olthoughi he could not see
what was done, he could hear almost every
thing that was said. .
DEMANDED MONEY.
He beard loud talking between the two
men. but did not think it necessary to in
terfere,. He heard Mr. Deyhle demand
money from his employer, and when the
latter refused there was a loud report He
then rushed into the room Gesswein stag
gered toward the lounge, but before he could
reach it fell to the floor and expired imme
diately, uttering only a groan.
Deyhle was standing in the middle of the
noor with a smofcing revolver in his hand.
Koester seized him, at the same time snatch
ing the revolver, and calling for help. In
an instant there were half a dozen clerks
from down stairs nt his side. Someone went
for an officer while Koester held Deyhle,
who uttered not a word, but appeared as
cool and collected as when he entered the
store two hours earlier.'
Coroner Schultze was summoned and took
charge of the remains. The prisoner is jn
old German of 69 years. He was shabbily
dressed in gray, and had a small, dirty
looking valise in which were several small
tin boxes containing substances which the
police said looked like poisonous matter.
He had only a few cents in his pocket
HIS REASON EOR THE DEED.
''Why did you kill Mr. Gesswein?" he
was asked.
."He has ruined me. I invented and had
patented a reflector for jewelers, made sam
ples myself and sold them to Gesswein at 81
apiece. I lived pretty well on that for a
time, but he soon copied my reflectors him
self and I was unable to get along. So I
sued him in the United States Court be
fore Judge Brown, who decided against me.
Three weeks ago I wrote a letter in German
to Mr. Gesswein, asking him for money.
He answered me in the same language that
I would never get any from him, the Court
having decided in his favor.
"Then I decided to leave Philadelphia,
where I was living with two of my sisters,
and come to New York and speak myself to
that man. I had no money to go into busi
ness again, no money to enter the Home for
Aged People of Philadelphia, and I could
remain a burden to my sisters no longer.
When I entered Gesswein's store this morn
ing he had not arrived. I waited for him.
He arrived at last and bid me come upstairs
in his office. When Mr. Gesswein refused
positively my request for $500 1 drew my re
volver and quickly fired at him without
leaving the chair, I was occupying by his
xeit sine.

Final Decision In tho Suit of J. P Farley
Against Commodore KHtscn'n
Estate The Court Decides
the Claim Nat Valid.
SPECIAL TEtKOBAK TO TDK DISPATCn.1
St. Paul, September 13. After nine
years of litigation, at a coit of nearly
$1,000,000 on both sides, a decision was
rendered to-day by Judge Brewer, of the
"United States Circuit Court, which settles
a lawsuit involvine S5.000.000. and em
bracing in its progress the story of how two
great fortunes were made. James J. Hill,
president of the Manitoba system, is to-day
rated at $15,000,000, at least nine-tenths of
which was the direct outcome of events and
transactions which figure in this
big lawsuit. Commodore Kitt-
sen died worth about $4,000,000,
fully one-half of which came through the
same channel. J. P. Farley is the man who
for nine years has fought through the courts
for a division of these enormous gains, only
to be told at last that he has no claim upou
any part of the millions.
It was in 1873 that Farley was appointed
receiver of tne bankrupt concern, known
as the First Division of the St. Paul and
Pacific Bailroad, whose bonds were mainly
held in Holland. Default in interest
payments led to the appointment of a re
ceiver. At its first hearing in the United
States Court Farley was knocked out, but
on appeal to the Supreme Court the finding
was reversed and tne case ordered to be tried
on its merits.
The final hearing and argument took
place before Judge Brewer last winter, and
after holding the matter under advisement
for eight or nine months he now finds in
favor of the defendant's, holding that Far
ley's statements were untrue.
To fight Farley's claim has cost James J.
Hill fully half a million dollars. He had
purchased all of Kittsen's Manitoba hold
ings some time before the old Commodore
died, but this did not prevent the
Kittsen heirs from being sadly embarrassed
pending the result of the big suit, for it was
ordered that the estate be placed in the
hands of the St. Paul Trust Company, there
to remain until Farley's claim was dis
posed of.
The Kittsen heirs were allowed $15,000 a
year to live on, but this was not enough to
keep up the big mansion which the Commo
dore built on St. Anthony Hill, and they
have been poor people since the old man
died.

New York, September 13. In the Ives
trial to-day the cross-examination of Treas
urer Short was resumed. The witness testi
fied that immediately after the adjourn
ment yesterday he went to the room of the
District Attorney and there met Mr. Wood
ruff and a Mr. Smith, a former clerk of Ives
& Co., but nothing was elicited from the
witness as to what took place there. In the
evening, at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, he said
he had conversed some time .with B. D.
Marshall, counsel for the Cincinnati, Ham
ilton and Dayton road, F. H. Lawrence and
Ernest Zimmerman.
The Assistant District Attorney then
brought out the fact that the question re
lating to Ives and Staynor's acquittal last
spring was not because the acts alleged
were not committed, bnt because they were
out of the jurisdiction of the State of Ohio.
Reverting to the 60 certificates he brought
out the fact of their signatufe by the wit
ness at Ives' instance, of his calling upon
Judge Hoadly to inquire as to the propriety
of his signing them in blank and of Judge
Hoadly stating it was all right, as it was
under order from a superior officer. Con
cerning the subsequent issue of bonds Mr.
Short said he did not know thev were sold.
but believed they had been, a credit having
been made of $2,611,342 in a letter from
Ives'& Co., at New York. This letter was
produced as evidence.
The deposit account between Ives & Co.
and the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Davton
road was then thoroughly gone into to
gether, with the amounts placed to that
firm's credit by Treasurer Short. Once he
hud a telegram from Staynor to remit $250,
000 t IJew York, which the witness did.
At various times he drew on the smaller
roads controlled by the Cincinnati, Hamil
ton and Dayton, aud sent the money .to

Tho Storm-Swept Resort Rapidly Regain

Atlantic Citt, N. J., September 13.
The sun came out bright this afternoon and
many people took advantage of the fact to
take in the sights along the beach
front A large number of work
men are engaged in clearing
away the debris and this storm swept city is
rapidly getting to its normal condition.
The German ship, Geistlemunde, which
went ashore last night, is high and dry on
the beach about 500 yards south west of the
West Jersey Excursion House. Thousands
of people visited the snot fo-day. Capiain
Le'nthe, her commander, tells this story of
tbe loss of his vessel:
"On "Wednesday, onr fifty-seventh day
out, we lost our bearings. That evening
we hailed a New York steamer and were
informed that we were about 25 miles from
Absecon light, bnt within an hour there
after we struck. Our signal of distress was
answered by what I supposed to be a pilot
boat light and X ncadea tor it.
The water has almost entirely subsided,
and tbe bed of the Camden and Atlantic
Bailroad is clear. Until this morning no
definite idea of the damage to
the "West Jersey road could be gained,
but as the mist clears away
and the spray disappears. it is
seen that the road bed is in terrible shane.
"Possibly the Beading Bailroad, taking the
entire stretch into consideration, is the most
completely wrecked, but as far as the work
of repairs is concerned the "West Jersey will
need as much attention. The West
Jersey officials despatched heavy repair
trains to the scene of disaster yesterday,
and will push the necessary repairs to a
speedy completion. The Beading road has
also several hundred men actively at work
on tne Meadows.

The time of the reunion of the Southwestern
Soldiers' Association to-day was devoted to
a reception to John T. Crisp, an ex-Confederate
Colonel. At the Confederate re
union at Higginsville two weeks ago Colo
nel Crisp eulogized Lincoln and Grant
and refused to pay a tribute to Jefferson
Davisand General Lee. This attracted the
attention of the Union veterans, and they
invited him to the reunion.
He made an address on the relations be
tween the North and South, and advocated
the destruction of sectional prejudices by
forbearance. He eulogized Lincoln and
Grant. His speech was tbe event of the
Encampment, and the enthusiasm aroused
among the veterans was extraordinary. He
was given an ovation, and at the end of his
speech the veterans cheered him three times

I SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THIS DISPATCH.
New York, September 13. Never was
a sight of port more pleasing or rest more
comforting than they were to the sailormen,
literally storrutossed sailormen, who
reached the harbor to-day. Scare a man
among them but had a tale to tell of the
battered hulls, broken spars and torn sails
and of tbe fearful violence of the hurricane.
All agree thai the sea was the ugliest they
had ever seen north of Hatteras at this sea
son of the year. To Captain Jos. McKee, of
the Clyde Line steamer Yemasee, belongs
the largest measure of praise, for he brought
into port Captain and Mrs. Bull, 2 children
and 13 men that had been rescued from
the sinking Norwegian bark Alsylva, at 12
o'clock noon on Thursday. Captain Ohn,
of the Norwegian fruit steamer Hogin, from
Baracoa; Captain Kemble, of the steamer
Knickerbocker, from New Orleans, and
Captain Dole, of the old Dominion steamer
Cleopatra, from Norfolk, all report fearful
weather and very ugly cross seas north of
Hatteras.
AN UNKNOWN MAN'S DBATH.
The latter steamer supplied the lumber
laden schooner Adelene, of St. Johns, N.
B., with provisions. Her captain said that
on Tuesday night the decK load was washed
overboard, and with it the schooner's mate,
whose name he did not know.
Nineteen storm-defying steamships came
in from the white-capped tumult of the open
sea and passed quarantine into safety. Only
eight of a big fleet of sailing craft that
ought to have been here by Thursday were
reported. Not a few of them,the nautical ex
perts conjecture, have met with disaster.
Five of this lucky octet were barks, two
ships, one brig and a schooner.
The Old Dominion Tjinn RtPAmnhin Olrl
Dominion, which arrived, fell in with the
dismasted schooner Kobert JUcFarland off
Fenwlck Island, on Thursday afternoon,
and towed her into tbe Delaware break
water. She was leaking badly and was
utterly at the mercy of the hurricane. Her
decks had been swept clean. None of her
crew were hurt. The bark Eudora, Captain
Lewis, 49 days from Buenos Ayres, in
ballast, was thumped pretty hard by giant
seas and lost or split nearly all her sails.
RAN. BEFORE THE WIND.
The schooner Ada Barley gave up the at
tempt to get from Baltimore to Buenos
Ayres when the gale struck her on Septem
ber 8, 300 miles south of Delaware. She
turned her nose this way, and arrived after
a rough experience to-day. She lost
her main boom and sail and 4cr
lifeboats, and had everything movable
washed from her decks. The bark Lord
Templeton, 46 days from Bremen, had every
thing movable swent from her decks and
lost a tew sails. The Italian bark Pie
trino, 83 days from Smyrna, also lost and
split nearly all her canvas. The bark St.
James, Captain Cook, 150 days from Hiogo,
had to fun before tbe blast for nearly a day
to say;e herself from being wrecked.
The Anchor line steamer, City of Borne,
which arrived Thursday evening, did not
reach her dock until to-night. Some of the
steerage passengers state that she narrowly
escaped being run into by an outbound
steamer to-day, while lying outside the
bar. The rain and fog were so
thick that a person on deck could
scarcely see a boat's length ahead. The
City of Home was waiting for a pilot, when
up loomed a big steamer in the fog, coming
right toward her. The steamer's name was
not learned, so the passengers say, but she
came mighty near making herself felt.

After the race was over, Teemer's judge
claimed a foul for him. alleging that Hamm
had interfered with the McKeesDorter.
Teemer, however, never approached the
referee's boat to lodge any objection. His
judge's objection, nevertheless, was taken
into consideration, and the contestants,
Hamm and the judges, were ordered to
meet the referee at the National Hotel, Mc
Keesport. When they met Teemer made a statement
that he ran into Hamm and broke his
(Teemer's) boat,
Hamm began to make his statement when
a general row ensued. Teemer's brother,
Andy, rushed on Hamm and soon had him
down on the floor of the room.
St. John, the reporters and others rushed
in and stopped the onslaught. Hamm got
up with a badldamaged face.
Amid the general brawl the referee ordered
the parties directly interested to make their
statements at The Dispatch office to-day

A Husband Who Gt Ills Whiskers
for WlnklnK nt a Girl.
Brooklyn Citizen. 1
An interesting incident took place on an
elevated tram a few nights ago. At one of
the Broadway stations a middle aged man
and a woman, apparently his wife, entered
the train. At the next station another
woman got on and took up a position, fac
ing the married couple. She had not long
beeu on the train before the Kan's glances
caused her to smile, and he did likewise.
They were carrying on a flirtation when
the man's wife discovered it, and after
scowling at the woman, caught hold of
her husband's mustache and gave it a
severe poll.
He tried to say Something, but she held
on to his bristles and exclaimed in an un
dertone: "I told you not to do it." The
woman who caused the rumpus between
man and wife got frightened and left the
train. The couple also got off right after.
An EfTemlnato Little Dade.
Buffalo Courlcr.i
A specimen of the young man who wears
bracelets drifted into a restaurant last night
where the Arounder happened to be. On his
dainty wrist was a neat little gold bracelet
with a coquettish little clasp. Of all the
silly effeminate ornaments this seems to be
the worst. The man who wears a bracelet
should be fed on warm milk and pnt to bed
at sundown. ,
The German ship Geestermunde, Captain
Lenthe. is aground on Absecon Beach. She
left Stettin July 14, for Philadelphia.loaded
with cement and empty coal oil bar
rels. She struck the beach about
8 o'clock Thursday evening. The
Absecon life-saving crew went out
and fonnd the crew of 18 men in a panicky
condition. Toward midnight the sea threw
the Geestermunde arouud nearer in shore,
and this morning she was less than 40 yards
away from the beach. The crew were
obliged to abandon the vessel, and she will
probably be a total loss.
The steamer which went ashore last even
ing near Cape Henry proves to be the God
revv, iron laden, from St. Jagof Cuba, to
Baltimore. The vessel rests easily half a
mile from shore. She will he saved.
The schooner Nellie V. Stokes, of Deer
Isle, Me., from Mount Desert for New York,
with granite, was wrecked on Chatham Bar
last night. Her crew were seen early this
morning clinging to the rigging and were
rescued by the Chatham life saving crew.
The vessel left Mount Desert last Saturday.
She will be a total loss.

Laughable Remnrks That Were Mads Off

London Globe.:
The unconscious humors of the bench are
many, and since they are not wilful, there
can be nothing indiscreet in recalling them.
Very often these wits in spite of themselves
are magistrates, Chairmen of Quarter Ses
sions and County Court Judges, bnt occa
sionally they have been heard at Assizes or
in the Chancery and Queen's Bench Courts.
It was a Justice of the High Court to whom,
in former days, was attributed the famous
exordium of a charge to a jury in a case of
larceny.
"For 40 centuries the thunders of Sinai
have echoed through the world Thou shalt
not steal. This is also a principle of the
common law and a rule of equity."
When Swift and Pope made their cele
brated excursion into the art of sinking- in
poetry, they never contrived any pathoj
more perfect or complete than this. Almost
as delightful, though expressed without the
same literary skill, is the sentence ot a pres
ident of a court martial:
"Prisoner, not only have you committed
murder.but you have run a bayonet through
the breeches of one of Her Majestv's uni
forms." " t
Perhaps, however, the best of all iudicial
utterances is that ascribed to a rural Justice
of the Peace: "Prisoner, a bountiful Provi
dence has endowed you with health and
strength, instead of which you go about the
country stealing hens."

Tfao Cruiser Passed Through the Biff Storm
Without Any Damage.
Newport, B. I., September 13. The
United States cruiser Atlanta, Captain
Howell, arrived at 10 o'clock this morning.
A boat came ashore an hour later,
nnd it was learned that the At
lanta left New York last Monday
morning, going outside, round Sandy Hook,
and had not been back there since, so the
report that she passed around Sandy Hook
yesterday was a mistake. Since Monday
she has been standing off shore, lying off
and on in order to weather the gale. She
kept a good distance from land, preferring
the gale to the rocks along shore. Land
was sighted only once, last Tuesday morn
ing. The cruiser was for the most part off
Montauk Light.
The weather was thick and fogey. The
storm was very severe and the gale sharp,
but the cruiser weathered it without damage.
She took some seas and was pretty wet. but
behaved admirably, surprising the officers
themselves.
Yesterday Coxswain John Sanders, of Bar
Harbor, died suddenly of heart disease, and
was buried at sea about 50 miles off shore.
The Atlanta will remain for her trials, for
which she came on.

Chicago Herald.:
In one .particular the Frenchmen and
Germans have the advantage over Ameri
cansthey do not expectorate. In Ger
many and France the cuspidor is unknown,
but when Frenchmen and Germans come to
America thev learn the habit quickly. Not
long ago a Frenchman who has lived in
Chicago for some time went East to meet
his wife, who had never left France. He
put up at a leading hotel, had cut flowers
put all about the apartments, and then went
down to the steamer to meet his wife.
"When she arrived he ushered her into
the apartments and then went downstairs to
buy a cigar. He lit it and returned. After
be bad smoked awhile he began to look for
the cuspidors. He could not find them.
Finally he looked on the mantel and there
he saw them filled with the cnt flowers.
"What are the cuspidors doing ud there?"
he asked his wife. "I ionnd these pretty
vases on the floor and filled them with
flowers," she answered. Now she knows
better. ,
