A SHIP CUT CLEAN IN TWO That Is Thought to Be a Nova Scotia Vessel With 23 lien. SOME CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE. Eoth Eoats Overdue, and the Sailing Tort of the Taylor FOUXD ON ONE HALF OF THE WEECK rSPECIlL TELEGRAM TO THE DIBPATCn.J Xew York, June 26. The identity of the vessel cut in two on or just before Thursday last by the iron prow of a swift running steamship, about 260 miles east of Sandv Hook, has been pretty well estab lished. It is believed that she was the JCova Scotian ship Fred B. Taylor, ivhich left Havre in ballast for this port 43 days ago. She was spoken on June 12, about 9G0 miles east of Xew York, by the "White Star steamship JIajestic, bound west. On Thursday last, her after-half, floating bot tom up, was passed by the Dutch tank steamer Ocean, which arrived on Saturday from Amsterdam. The forward half was passed on "Wednesday last bv the steamship Stuart Prince, which arrived on Friday irom Mediterranean ports. The Ocean passed the after-half in lati tude 42 22', longitude 68 10', and the Stuart Prince passed the forward half in latitude 40 21', longitude 68 20'. They were thus onlv a few miles apart The cap tain of the Stuart Prince says that the shaven part of the wreck he saw was under water. The jibs and all head sail were set, and most of the foremast was out of the water. A Jllnnte Drsoriptlon of the "Wreck. To a Nova Scotian skipper interested in the Fred B. Taylor, Captain Voge, of the Ocean, gave to-day a minute description of the wreck. It was apparently that of a vessel in ballast, otherwise it probably would not have been afloat That the vessel was a ship was evident from her xnizzen channel"!, which were very lone. Her stern was large and round, like that of the Fred B. Taylor, and she was painted black. That part of her counter on which her name was lettered was under water, but her hailing port, "Yarmouth, N. S.," was visible. All this answers to the description of the Taylor. She had been struck on the port Eiae, and the cut was as clean as if it had been made by a gigantic ax. It looked as if it was only a few hours old. The fate of the Taylor's skipper, Captain E. F. Hnrl bert, and his 22 men, must be a matter of conjecture until the steamship that ran the ship downis heard from, unless she too was wrecked by the collision. There is a chance that some of the Tay lor's crew may have clnng to the after-half of her and may have been rescued. Description of the MUtiInc Vessel. The Taylor was a sturdv double-decker, of 1.798 tons, and was built at Tnsket, N. S., in 1883. She was 237 feet long, 42 feet beam, and 24 feet deep, and was constructed of hard and soft wood. She was overhauled and repaired last year, and was in first-class shape. She was owned by "William Law & Co., of Yarmouth. Captain Hurlbert, who Is, or was 28 years old, was accompanied by his young bride on the ship's last voyage to Havre. She left him there and came to Brooklyn. On "Wednesday Mrs. Hulbert became a mother. The ship was chartered by PaulGerhardt, of the Brazil Mail Line, and was coming nere io loaa ior jsuenos Ayres. xne late of the ship naturally started the nautical sharps guessing what steamship it was that had run her down. The fact that the Por tuguese steamship Vega is five days over due at this port, from Lisbon, whence she sailed June 5, caused the linking of her name with that of the luckless Nova Scotian. The Vega's agents, G.'Amsinck & Co., are somewhat uneasy about her. One of their representatives called at the Barge Office to-day and said she had been confi dently expected on "Wednesday last. He had a tug re?dy to-day to go down and meet her, under the impression that she might be reported disabled. Fir Hnndrod Llm In Donbt. "When the Vega left Lisbon she had 316 steerage passengers aboard. She called at the Azores and got probably 100 more. Her usual time between this port and Lisbon, including five days at the Azores, is from 15 to 16 days. She is now 22 days ont She is an iron vessel of 1,143 tons and was built at Newcastle by A. Leslie & Co., in 187D. If she or any other westbound steam ship ran down the Fred. B. Tay lor, the Nova Scotian must have been standing to the south on the starboard tack, otherwise she probably would not have been struck on the port side. A blow on the same side might have been inflicted by a steamship bound east, if the Taylor was standing to the north on the port tack. If the steamship was bound this way, and was not damaged, or sunk in the collision, she ought to have been heard of before to day. Three steamships, La Gascogne from Havre, the Brittania from Gibraltar, and the Fulda from Genoa, arrived to-day and saw nothing of the Vega, and nothing of the drifting halves of the Nova Scotian. Some of the experts were inclined to doubt that the Vega had the speed "to make such a clean cut through the Tayl6r. They said it was more likely that the ship had been hit by one of the twin screw racers, but there was none of them there The nearest was theMajestic, which on her last west-bound trip spoke to the Taylor and brought news to the Captain's wile that his ship was nearing New York. The Majestic did not leave this port, on her return, until Wednesday afternoon, the day the wreck was first seen. AFIEE THE ALLIANCE VOTE. A Georgia Democratic Platform Maker Analyze tlie Chicago Affair. Atlanta, Ga., June 26. L. F. Garrard, the Georgia member of the Platform Com mittee at Chicago, says: "I insisted that for 25 years the Southern States had ap peared in the National Deniocratic'Conven tion and were told what was necessary to be done to carry New York and Indiana for the Democrats, but that the time had now come when they nere brought face to face with the problem of retaining the solid South in the Democratic ranks and that the views of the South must be respected. By a careful readins of the platform adopted it will be een that almost every material idea in the Gcorz-a platform is covered by the national platform." Summarizing, lie declares that the ar raignment of the force bill is the most prominent plauk; that the tariff plank is all that could be asked for. the amendment adopted being a mere change of phrase- syndicates is complete, the section being written by him. The silver plank he holds to be lor absolute free silver, its declare- ver, and the fact that gold is already free giving the same character to the demand for kindred metals, which is to put it on a parity with it in all respects. The platform .nakes silver free as gold. The platform. he argues, should receive the support of A FREE SILVER HAVEN. The People's Tarty Expects to Gather In the Malcontents Who Bolted the Minne apolis and Chicago Conventions Chair man Taubeneck Expresses His Opinions. St. Louis, June 2a H. E. Taubeneck, Chairman of the People's Party National Executive Committee, was seen to-day at the committee's headquarters in this city and questioned regarding the party's prospects. Said he: "You can rest assured that our National Convention will be a big concern. It will be a deliberative body, not influenced by Federal officeholders or those who expect Federal offices." Begarding the platforms adopted at Min neapolis and Chicago, Mr. Taubeneck said that so far as he could see they were, except in the tariff planks, identical. As to the attitude the silver-producing States would probably take durins; the coming campaign Mr. Taubeneck stated: From the con espopdence I am receiving, especially from Colorado, tliev sny that no.ther Harrison nor Cleveland ctm poll over 5 per cent or their respective party votes. Tills holds true in every other min ing State. Colorado ha 10,000 votes enrolled in lier silver clubs. Every one is pledjrea to vote for no man nor cany unless tliev favor tree and unlimited coinage of iilver, and my opinion is that these people mean lust ex actly whit they sav. The Democratic "delegates from Colorado at the Chicago Convention liavo called a con vention or Democrats for Colorado. I think they will declare both the nominee and plat form at Clilcaao as undemocratic, lepuUlate it , and elect delegates to confer with the People's Tarty at Omaha. They will also call on every other silver State to do the same, and I think it will be done. Tho Ex ecutive Committee ortlio Bimetallic Lenirue is in session, and from information I have they will declare both the old parties as enemies to bimetallism, and itsuo a call to the tree silver clubs and the Uimetallic League to send delo.ates to Omaha and con fer n it li the People's Party. With the proper nominations and with a (rood canvass we will sweep the South and West everything south of the Ohio and west of the Mississippi livers. WEB-FOOTED CHICAGO. NOW FOR THE BROWNS.

GENERAL SrORTIXG NEWS 0P THE DAT Denizens of Sevrral Suburbs Fleeing for ."afety Thousands of Tint Floors Cov ered With Water The Sitnatlon Grow ing Worse Improvised Raffs in De mand. Chicago, June 26. Five square miles of territory adjacent to Dauphin, a suburb of this city, are buried beneath a flood to night, and 1,000 or more houses between State street and Lake Michigan are at the mercy of the waves, which- strong east wind has forced through the basement and first floors. The great body of water which has been collecting in the region, has broken all barriers, and this afternoon burst the last obstruction at Eighty-seventh street, raft ing down with terrific force upon Grand Crossing, whose citizens were panic-stricken bv the sieht of a sea of risinc water in vading every home, driving householders either from their dwellings or to the second stories. At present there is not less than two feet of water in the streets. Every base ment is flooded and the foundations of many buildings are weakened- The immediate cause of the flood is the breaking of the Eighty-seventh street bank, due to an accummulatlon of water during the recent storm. Grand Crossing at midnight was in despair. At Fordham and Dauphin Park the suffering was only less in degree, as there were fewer to suffer and a less num ber to experience the terror of a possible death before morning in waters which were rising at the rate of one inch ah hour. Every effort is being made by those over taken by the flood to escape with their families. It is only by means of improvised rafts that movement irom one point to an other is possible. Up to the present no Iosb of life is reported, but rescuing parties have started to help those whose perilous condition give rise to a fear for their safety. Two boys were drowned in that part of the "West Branch known as Mnd lake to day. , , Declined to Go Into FontYes. Philadelphia, June 26. The resolu tions introduced by Frederick "W.

CINCINNATI 7 tonlsvllle 3 The officials of the local ball club are in strong hopes that the team have now gotten fairly down to work for the balance of the vear. Yesterday afternoon Treasurer Brown said: "Our team will face the 8t. Louis Browns to-morrow, and the form displayed recently by our players has been snoh that I expect them to win. It seems as if our pitchers are now all in good form, and if they keep all right I think we have just as good a team as there is in the country. Just think where we would have been had Terry and Ehret been with us in cood form for the past few weeks. "We would have had seven or eight more carries won and so many less lost to our credit, and that would have put us high up in the race." Mr. Temple was also in a good humor yesterday because of the form displayed by the local team last week, and he expects that the plavers will now keep on winning more games than they lose. They have won four ont of the last five played, which is a splendid showincr. Baldwin will likely pftch to-dav, and he will nrobablvbe onnosed bv Breitenstein,. the left-hander. Our slngzers polished "Breit" oS to the queen's 'taste when he was here, but he is pitching very effectively now. It iB generally understood that the Pittsburg sluggers are easv marks for left handed twirlers, but it will not be a sur prise if the St Louis South-paw gets a thumping by them if he faces them. The team have four games to plav away from home this week, and they will finish the first championship before leaving again. The wind-up of the first half will be with the Bostons, and that ought to make mat ters extremely exciting. If the Philadel phia team keep on winning during their "Western trip, the Boston series here may be one of the most exciting of the season. The struggle for positions ranging from fourth to eighth or ninth places is sure to be a great one, and as the New York and Washington teams finish away from home, that ought to give the Ptttsburgs a good ad vantage in the struggle. So far this season there has been one fact fully demonstrated, viz., that such cities as Louisville are jot profitable enough for the League. Manager Buckenberger states that it does not pay a team to go there. This feature is likely to be seriously considered by the magnates before the year is ended.

XKw'tYoitK, June 26. Special The po sition of Manager l'nt Towers in connection with the New, York League Baseball Club is particularly trying at this moment. Had be been allow ed to carry out his own ideas early in the season, tUero is every reason to believe that the local team would occupy a much better position than it Is mow enjoy ing. However, he did not have his own way, but he now comes out with nn announce ment stating that complete managerial powers have been conferred upon him at this stage of the game, and. he will endeavor to reconstruct the team. He assumes a ' large responsibility at a,very late day, and in ins worK nas tne well wisues or every one. Shonld he be successful in this second series of games Sir Patrick will rival Adrian Anson oi Chicago, who enjoys the dis tinction of bein tho best manager of a baseball club in the country. Captain Johnnio Ward, of the Brooklvn Baseball Club, will win considerable money on the result or tho first baseball series. He made a number of wafers with Now Yorkers before the season opened, betting that the Iirnoklyns would heat the Giants in per centages. So lar the race is all in Brook lyn's fnvor, and Ward will soon have tho pleasure of rakinsr in a pocketful of shekels and a small package of Now York club's common stock.

On June 13 we advertised a special sale of Baby Carriages. Although our stock was exceptionally large at that time, yet so numerous were our sales that within a week our assortment wa3 broken, and we were completely sold out of some of the lines advertised. Hundreds of would-be purchasers went away dis appointed, as much to our regret as to their own. But; "it is an 111 wind that blows no good." and the fact that our own stock was almost entirely sold out enabled us to go into the market ready to buy large lots; and as the season is about over for the manufacturers we were able to practically dictate prices. Consequently we offer inducements this week even surpassing the sale of June 13. Highest of all in Leavening Power.-r-Latest U. S.
