= oc ee nat Er rm re PS EERE f HUNDREDS PERISH AT SEA A SNOW-LADEN HURRICANE ie ies Swamps Ships, Sweep Docks and Harms Rails and Wires. It is estimated that 200 lives have been lost during fthe gale which swept over the British coast Sunday and Monday and in addition, the crews of several boats are still missing. Some idea of the force of the rale can b e gathered from the fact that two aseavy railroad engines were blown off the rack near Inverness, blocking all traffic aorth, and necessitating the dispatch of two wrecking trains to clear the track, The wreckage trains bave not since heen heard from so it is supposed that the work has been impeded by a fall of snow. Reports from Harve and Calais say the storm along the Normandy coast is the worst one experienced in the last 50 years. Wrecks are reported from every point along the coast. Innumerable small crafts have vanished from the waters along the coast. Vessels were dragged from their moorings and sunk with all on board. More than 300 rersons were drowned at Calais and in the mumediate neighborhood. Fifty bodies Lave been recovered. The channel steamer, Foam, which left Dover for Calais had the greatest difficulty ‘n entering Calais harbor. Her officers sounted 29 wrecks, principaliy fishing boats ip the 13-mile interval between Gravelines and Calais. They found the east pier head at Calais harbor swept away. More than 800 feet of the pier had been swept away. Tbe harbor looked as if it had been shaken by an earthquake, The British steamer Hampshire went down off Gurnard's Head on the Cornish coast. Twenty-three men were lost. So far definite reports have been received of the loss of 20 steamers and sailing vessels along the British coast, with a loss of about 75 men. Travelers, fishing smacks and tmall craft of other sorts have been re- ported by the score as missing from every important point on the coast. The people off the Orkney Islands, off the north coast | of Scotland, have suffered terribly, Many houses were unroofed. walls and barns lev- eled and haystacks blown out to sea. The steamship Killarney which arrived at Cork reports thatshe found the National line steamship Helvetia making signals of distress about 10 miles from Milford. The Kiilarney stood by the Helvetia for five hours, and then, as the fury of the storm was increasing, was obliged to leave. A tug fi: ally towed the Helvetia into Milford Haven. 130deaths have been reported in Havre, France. The losses of the fishing tleet will doubtless raise the number to 200 or more. TATHOLIC SEMINARY BURNED Two Children Suffocated and a Numbei of Others Injured. The Edgewood Female Seminary, Madi son, Wis., was destroyed by fire. Two chil dren were suffocated and several others in jured. The dead are: Majorie Rice, Stevens Point, Wis ; Mag- gie Stack, 64 Forty-fifth street, Chicago.

The fire started in the upperstory of the main build- ing, where the girl students, some 50 in number, were sleeping. The halls were soon filled with smoke and the Catholic sisters who conduct the seminary, had the greatest difficuity in get ing the girls out. When little Marjorie Rice and Maggie Stack aged 7 and 6 years respectively, were reach- ed their bodies were lifeless, the little ones having been suffocated. . A new structure and several other build- ings were destroyed. The loss is $75,00C, nearly fully insured. TheDominican Sisters were given the seminary buildings and grounds some ycars ago by ex-Gov.

Mul and steam power aredoomed. Thenew powe; was tesied at Brighton, four miles distan from Rochester, N. Y., on the Erie Canal. The old steamship Frank Hawley, fittec with an electrical motor by the Westing: house company, taking power from the trolley. wire overhead, started off withouf hitch or hindrance when Mr. Hawley, the promoter, of the scheme, pulled the lever. The electric current was taken from the street railway, about 500 volts power The trolley pales are similar to those on the electric railway cars, but with a lateral hinge, allowing for a deflection of the boat six feet either way. They are only tempo rarily used. Later itisintendedto use a trolley running over the top of the wire with a wire drop from the trolley to the boat and thence connecting with the motor. The boat sped faster than the law allows, six miles an hour, without hitch or break. Ev- ery difficulty encountered in canal naviga- tion was successfully overcome. pl cis TFL LEHIGH ROAD TIED UP.

KEYSTONE STATE COLLINGS | PREPARING 10 ee. TROOPS CALLED OUT ——e i To Prevent the Lynching of a Brute Whe Assaulted and Murdered a Young Women.’ Sl eda Miss Birdie Bangh, aged 20 years, the only daughter of C. C. Baugh, a wealthy farmer of near Alliance, O.. was assaulted and murdered by Curt Davidson a farm hand, who then attempted suicide by cut- ‘ing his throat with a razor. Baugh and his wife were away from homie. Davidson soarded with the family. No one witness- 3d the crime, but from the appearance of ‘he kitchen it seems that Miss Raugh had waited until her two brothers and David- son had gone to bed and then covered the fire and was taxing off her shoes ‘when Davidson returned and struck her on the head with a piece of iron. The fellow then picked her up and carried her to the barn, 100 yards, where after assaulting her he cut ber throat from ear to ear. The crime was not discovered until morn- ing, when Miss Baugh’s brother found her mutilated remains, nearly stripped of cloth- ing, lying on the barn tioor. About the same hour a farmer living half a mile from the Baugh home discovered Davidson lying on a pile of straw in his barn yard with his throat cut. He is about 40 years old, un- married and has worked for Baugh for several years. The physicians sav David- son may recover, but if he does he will probably be lynched as the town is in a frenzy of excitement. The threatening assembly of men at ap- parently designated pointsin the city dur- ing the evening convinced the loca) authori- ties that MurdererDavidson was inimminent danger of rope or bullet. The Mayor wired Sheriff Krider to come at once from Canton The sheriff arrived shortly after 10 o'clock. The guard on Davidson was re-enforced, but In less than an hour the situation became 80 threatening that Company K of the Eight Regiment of Ohio’s "National Guard was ordered out, As midnight approached the situation be- came so threatening that the city author- ities held a conference with the sheriff and other connty officers. It was finally decid- ed to send him tothe county jail at New Libson. Orders were given secretly and at midnight a city ambulance was brought up to the rear entrance of the house wherethe murderer was under guard. Davidson was guickly transferred to the ambulance, but before the start was made 300 men appear- ed at the starting point. En route to the statian the mob was reinforced by 200 ex- cited citizens, and there was an unbroken storm of groans and maledictions from the pursurers. The ambulance had been turned and reached the station 2just as the train pulled in. There was a rush for the helpless figure when it was dragged out,but the guard closed around it and the militia kept the mob at bay. The instant David- son was dumped into the car the train pulled ou*. The sheriff acted none too soon in taking the murderer out of the city. Eighty resolute men had pledged each other to take the wretch from the Shaw house and hang him between 1 and 2 o'clock. The details had been arranged and the rope procured. The signal was to be the shutting off of the ar: lights in the streets at12:30. Twenty of the men were in a hall and . were preoaring disguises that were to render identification less easy in case of resistance by the officers, when one of the men doing picket duty at the house where Davidson was held report ed the intention of the sheritf to spirit the prisoner away. Sixteen of the twenty men favored storming the Shaw house and an- ticipating the officers. ya THE LABOR WORLD. Paris has sixty labor papers. BrICELAYERS have 311 unions.

RUBBED IN THE DAYLIGHT Chicago’s Big Rookery the Scene of 8 Wonderfully Bold Robbery. —_— J. O. Drake, treasurer of the Indiana lllinois & Iowa railway, was assaulted in his office in the Rookery building, Chicago anc robbed of many thousand dollars which he had packed in a valise preparatory to going out upon the road to pay employes. A mail carrier in passing Mr. Drake's office heard groans within and upon enterirg found the official lying upon the floo bruised and in a semi-conscious condi- tion. ‘‘I've been robbed by two men,” said Mr. Drake feebly, and the cpen safe, over- turned valise and scattered papers confirm: ed his statement. Big welts on his head bore evidence of savage blows. He had but little to say, but the sum of $ 0.000 waa mentioned as missing and it was son un- derstood that the robters had made away with that amount. The assault occurred about 7 o'clock a.m., when there were few people in the build- ing. No oneabout the piace remembers of having seen a suspicious character and dense mystery surrounds the aflair which is one of the boldest robberies that has oc- curred in Chicago for years. Mr. Drake came down early in the morn- ing to secure m: ney to pay off along the line. He took $20,000 from the safe. inter d- ing to leaveon the 7:30 train. He was fol- lowed into the office by two ordinary look- ing, smooth faced men and struck down and the $20,000 taken. € was struck on each temple and his Lead bears the marks of the blows. He conld give no very accurate descrip- tion of therobbers, butindicated that they heavy men and wore large ulsters. While Mr, Drake lay semi conscious on the floor ‘he robbers unlocked his valise and scoopen the pay envelopes into the larve packets of their ulsters.Occurring as it uid in the Rook- ery.one of the largest and best known office buildings of Chicago, situated in the heart of the business district, the robbory causea intense excitement. Business was almost at a standstill in the neighborhood during ‘he day. Ithas been the custom of the, treasurer to ray the employes of the road in checks. Had the custom been continued ‘ke startling robbery would not have been ittempted in all probablity, but within te past week the officials decided to pay in turrency. MARKETS. PITTSBURG.

The census returned show the enor- nous aggregate of 600,000 tons, or 1,200,068,000 peunds. manufactured in the United States in 1890; and the juantity bas probably increased since. How much of all this was dleomargarine, sod under the name of butter, it is now getting a little late in the day to inquire. But the the returns are professedly all of gen- uine butter, and this may be the fact. It is said that the 1890 product in this country would require 1,000: freight trains of 30 cars each, and each carrying 20 tons, to transport it. lowa seems to be the largest butter producer—her return, three years ago, being a hundred million pounds (100,000,000), worth $21,000,000. Il1j- nois stood next, with 95,000,000 worth 820,000,000. Wisconsin's pro- viuct was 45,000,000 pounds, worth 89,000,000, and Minnesota's nearly as fgreat—hers being worth $8,000,000, while Michigan’s was worth 87,500, 000. In 1885 the assessed value of cows was 8700,000,000—or more than the capital of all the national banks, at that time. Incredible as it may seem, it appears that the annual dairy butter product of the United States exceeds in value that of all of the JJumber, wheat and iron com- bined. That, at any rate, is the Statement of a statistician who ptb- lishes the results of his figuring. Other dairy statistics, milk, cream, and cheese, also make a big showing. Curious Occupations of Hindovos. Census blanks recently distributed by the English Government in India for the purpose of ascertaining the size of the population have just been returned to the home oftice,, and among them are as curious docua- ments as were ever collected in a sim- ilar undertaking. Under the head of ‘‘profession, occupation,etc.,” a num- ber of Hindoos admit candidly they are ‘‘professional debtors,” ‘constant borrowers,” or ‘men of secret re- sources.” Others have put them- selves on record as thieves, village thieves, and brigands. Some of more wodest agpirations call themselves tavern keepers, visitors of taverns, traveling story tellers, mendicants, pensions on their sons-in-law, or sim- ilar idlers. One Hindoo says that ‘‘he cannot work because he is a fool.” Others confess to a more seri- ous occupation, such as “expounder of oracles,” ‘‘eye examiner,” ‘sorce- rer,” ‘storm prophet,” ‘“tamtam player,” ‘‘doctor of Greek medicine. Another says that he conduct a mar- riage bureau for young domestics; a second declares that ‘‘he is making a business of marrying off his daugh- ters for money,” which latter .is un- doubtedly a very lucrative field. One profession which seems to be very re- munerative is that of ‘‘hiring out as a professional court witness,” and is followed by several Hindoos—St. Louis Post-Dispatch. .
