THE WEEK IN 00N0RBIS.
The Socialists seed whiuli Was sown here
a few weeks agp lias apparently taken root
tn spite of the admonishments of more con
servative inltids and a permanent organisa
tion is (o be effected. The leading spirits in
the movement are people of the foreign ele
ment. determined effort s Wins made
to Induoe the oo-opemtlon eif the English
speaking classes, but the movement haa not
met with much success In that direction thus
far.
It was with that view in nilud that an
open-air meeting was held a the north end
of Main street yesterday . afternoon. The
all for the meotlng was slgflW "Truth" and
was written In red. The inlaws were tacked
on telegraph poles In many places, but did
not attract a large audience; The meeting
was a very small one In comparison with the
previous meetings held, but It has been ex
plained by parties Interested that this was due
tothefaut that no notices in the foreign
languages were posted. Had this been done,
It is claimed, the meeting would have been
aslargo, If not larger, than any of tbo pre
vious assemblages. However this maybe it
is quite certain that the converts In town to
tho Socialistic ideas are few In number up to
the present tiino and tht it lias its Impetus
among the foreign classed.
Tho meeting yesterday was opened by Phis
V. Uterslein, the Lithuanian ex-Justice of
the Vence. JIo spoko briefly in introducing
J. Wilspn Jlccker, of Now York, a member
of tho American Hallway Union branch of
the Socialistic Labor Party. Mr. Ilecker
proved a fluent speaker with a full knowl
edge of all the trains of argument that
appeal to the Impulses of bis au Hence, but
he developed nothing new. He reviewed the
conditions of the country and Its history as
beariug upon the conditions of the
working classes and pointed out in
stances in which he claimed tho work
ing people would have been beno
tlttcd had they been members of the Social
istic paity. The speaker laid stress upon the
fact that one chief lonson for the Inability of
the working people to pull together Is their
mistake in allowing thoir national nnd re
ligious views to control them iu their affairs.
This, bo claimed, was a grave mistake and
urged his audience to adopt tho theory that
all should combine for a common cause and
uouo should be elevated or dethroned on
account of his particular religious belief.
After the meeting it was announced that
Mr. Becker would attend a meeting in
Shamokin to-day and will return here to
morrow to organize a local section of the
party In tho evening.

Vanhlngton, May 10. There Is no
certainty as to the line of proceeding
In the senate durlns the present week.
The Morgan Cuban resolution prob
ably will be taken up tills afternoon,
and It may lead to a prolonged and
spirited debate. Senator Morgan la
quite determined to press the resolu
tion to an Issue, and Venator Hale
just aa determined to prfcTent It pass
fttf, f r, Hale ultimately will move to
refer the resolution to the committee
on foreign relations, and an effort will
be made to enlist the friends of the
administration against It. The com-1
mlttees will be filled today or tomor- 1
row, but as this wilt be done on the i
basis heretofore agreed upon there will
le no frlcUon over the proceeding. The
r-opference report on the Indian appro
priation bill may cause some debate,
but the probabilities are that the agree
ment of the conferences will be gen
erally acquiesced in,
The house program of tfiree day ad

Week. Tie sundry civil appropriation
bill haa passed the senate, and now
returns to the house for action on the
amendments. The program pursued
When the Indian bill came back to the
house probably will be followed In tho
ease of the sundry civil. That Is, the
amendments wilt be considered In the
house before the bill is sent to con
ference. There is a good deal of bitter
feeling among the house factions,
which may break out as soon as op
portunity for debate Is given, and some
V.T lively oratorical displays are ex
pected. The conference report on the

ready for consideration before the week
closes.

New Tory, May 10. The Mallory line
steamer Leona left her pier Saturday
at 8 p. in. bound for Galveston, with 11
saloon passengers, flhe carried a gen
eral cargo of merchandise. Captain
Wilder was In command, with First
Mate Wallace and Second Mat Swee
ney assisting. The chief engineer was
Taylor, with three assistants, and a
crew of 78 men, Including firemen and
deckhands.
Among the passengers were S. V.
I Wlnslow, of Itutherford, N. J. On his
return to this city late last nlehy Mrs
Wlnslow told the following graphlo
story of the tire:
"First Mate Wallace was pacing the
bridge lAiout 1 a. m., when he thought
that he smelled smoke coming from the
forecastle. He went down the forward
to the companion way and opened the
door to the steerage. The moment he
did this there was a burst of flame,
which burned his face,
. "Wallace turned and ran on deck
and cried the alarm of fire to the for
ward wa,tch, telling him to wake the
steward and have all the passengers
aroused as quickly as possible without
creating any excitement. The steward
did this in a quiet manner, coins to
each stateroom and waking the oc
cupants.
"There was no excitement among the
saloon passengers. Most of them pack
ed their luggage and carried It from
their staterooms Into the main saloon.
They gatherer In the saloon and re
mained there, and after the officers had
assured them that there was no Im
mediate danger they took matters
quietly. The steward made frequent
trips forward, and came back with
reports of the progress of the flames.
"Captain Wilder rushed on deck at
the first alarm, clad only In an under
shirt and trousers. He assumed com
mand, and at once ordered the crew
to rescue the steerage passengers. On
the same deck with the storage, on the
port side of the ship, a large quantity
of cotton bagging was stored, separ
ated from the steerage passengers by
a board partition.
"The main deck was almost com
pletely filled with freight, cutting off
all exit from the steerage to the after
part of the ship. The only way out
from the steerage was up the forward
companlonway.
"The crew, on the cantata's orders,
rushed for the companlonway and at
tempted to descend. They were driven
back by dense volumes of smoke, and
flames quickly followed. The smoke
and Uame also came up through the
ventilators, and It was apparent to all
who were on deck that below decks
was a roaring furnace.
"Then It dawned on the officers and
crew that the unfortunates In the
steerage were probably burning to
death, captain Wilder saw his crew
driven back from the companlonway,
nnd the realisation of the horror below
made him desperate.
"He rushed to the stairs and boldly
attempted to go below. He did not get
down more than half a dosen steps
when the increasing clouds of smoke
and . the flames shooting up around
him drove him back on deck.
"He stepped back to the shelter of
the pilothouse. His face was scorched.
His eyebrows were burned away. He
stood there daEed and overcome for a
moment. Then he exclaimed: 'My
aofll no man can go through that and
come out alive, '
Despite, frantic -efforts to reaoh the
entombed passengers, It was several
hours before the lower decks could be
approached, and when the sailors
reached the steerage -It was only to
nnd 10 dead bodies 10 women, four
men and two children. The eight other
steerage passengers escaped.

way .from Boston for South Amboy
with three barges. The three lights of
Nauset were abeam at 3 o'clock, and
Captain Harding was peering out for
the two at Chatham when suddenly
th Rudolph loomed up ahead. It Is
said that she carried no lights. Before
the tug could swerve from her couril
the two vessels came together, the
sharp prow of the tug plunging Into
the schooner's side and tearing a hole
Into which tons of water rushed.
The schooner careened under the
blow of the collision and plunged down
ward Into the aea. Dropping her
barges, the Paoll put back to the place
where the schooner had sunk. Steward
Brown was picked up, and then John
son. The Rudolph was laden with iron
water pipe for the Boston water works.
The weight of this cargo accounted for
the sudden sinking of the vessel. The
Rudolph was built at Camden In 18X4
and registered 186 tons. The Vault was
uninjured.
