prevailed. There were about 200 cabin and
deck passengers aboard, large number OF
whom were women and children. The flames
spread with great rapidity, and scores of men
jumped into the water and attempted to reach
the shore by swimming, but nearly all these
were lost.
The pilot, engineer, stoker, carpenter and
torty-four passengers are known 20 be saved.
The captain, clerks, and other officers, and
many passengers, were lost. All the books
and papers Of the boat were lost, as were all
the cattle and other freight.
Many persons died after reaching the shore
from exposure.
All Of the women and children were lost,
nearly, if not all, being burned to death.
The conduct of the passengers and officers
is said to have been heroic. Such an appal-
ling scene has not been witnessed on the Mis-
sissipp for many years. The saved were
Memphis, and were carried to st. Louis. An
interview with the assistant engineer eicts
from him the following statement;
The alarm was given at 80, and in ten
minutes the boat was in a sheet of flame, and
every person had deserted her. All that were
lost were drowned, and none were burned.
Of eleven women on board but three were
saved. But one yawl was seen, and that was
taken possession of by some deck passengers.
No other life-boat or lile-preservers were seen.
The boat grounded two hundred yards from
the shore, in about six feet of water. There
were 40 cabin and $50 deck passengers and a
crew Of 60-in all about $50 souls, about 80
only of whom were saved.

a note, replying to official inquiry of Coun-
ellis that the balance of $4073 remains unex-
pended of the appropriation for the erection OF

A resolution was offered by Mr.. Hockey ask
ing the Mayor to relnstate as policemen Patrick
CaIrigan, John Riley, and John Gerard. These
gentlemen were discharged from the police
force by Mayor Fox. In the opinion of Mr..
Hockey, their discharge was the result OF inn
pulse. rather than of even-handed justice.
MI 2itchie professed inability to see this
matter as it appeared through the perifocals OF
Mr.. Hockey. While sticking for even-handed
justice he pronounced his inability to discern
adequate reason why, when Mr.. Fox dismissed a
man for derelicton of duty, he should be rein
stated without investigation as to the circum-
stances of the case.
Mr. Richie moved to amend by also asking
the Mayor to report for what reason he removed
from Office Police Lieutenant John Spear This
was agreed to.
Another member moved to include also an in
quiry as to the reason why his Honor kicked
out of Office Lieutenant Jacoby. This was car
ried without dissent.
Mr.. Franciscus now arose. He referred to the
summary dismissal from the force of Lieutenant
William Leighton, and wished to know also why
this useful officer was decapitated. Agreed to
Common Council passed and sent to the Select
Council an ordinance approving the securities
