BY WESTERN UNION LINE,
EASTERN DISPATCHES.

New YORK, Dec. "a dispatch from
London states the first signals of dis.
tress sent up from the wrecked steamer
Deutschland were Seen by men of the
English coast guard service. At six
O'Clock Monday morning several coas,
guard men turned out aud commenced n
search for volunteers to 60 with them in
the tug-boat Liverpool of Harwich and
AID them 10 an attempt ut rescue. The
men to whom they applied refused and
explain their conduct by saying they
thought 1t was only collier which was
lost; had they known that the distressed
vessel had passengers on board they
would have gone out. The sea was
rough and Harwich is the only place on
the line of the shore without life boat.
A woman, crazed with despair, hung
herself from the roof of the ships cabin;
one man committed suicide by cutting
the veins of his wrists; a Swede, who
had been saved from the wreck of the
steamship Schiller, was drowned. MANY
OF tho rescued are severely frost.bitten
and some are not expected to recover.
At daylight Tuesday morning the dead
bodies of five men were seen floating in
the water.

CHICAGO, Dec. 8. - Washington
special says q tour of inquiry
among the Democratic members since
the reading of the Presidents message

subject of the finances, as expressed by
tho President and Secretary Bristow, is
the only objective feature of the official
reports that at present occupies the minds
of the sluggish legislators. The Cuban
question is one about which the most
perfect Indifference is felt. Few of the
Eastern members care to talk about it at
all. The Western members soy that thew
have enough to do to occupy themselves
without seeking to NEEDLE with a bust
ness that can only end without profit to
any body. So the Cuban matter will
in all probability stand as the Presidents
modified views desires it to be. The
finance question being the source of fear
and despair in both branches of Con.
gress Is sure to come up again. The
recommendations OF the President and
Bristow do not by any means meet with
the approval of the majority of the De-
mocracy. Several members of the
House have resolution already pre-
pared repeating the specie resumption act
OF last January. There is no power that
can prevent this destroying question
from being discussed and when it il, the
amenities that now exist are bound to 90
by the board. Talks with leading DEM
ocrats rs we'll as the rank and file about
this subject give the most perplexing re-
suits. Some are in favor of wit hdrawine
all the national bank notes and issuing
billion or 30 Of greenbacks, soma believe
in doing nothing, few in specie resump-
ton, but the present Indications among
