The Wrecked Steamship,

San Francisco, June 15.-The China,
from Panama, brings the news that
the wrecked steamer City of San Fran
cisco has not been broken up by the
action of the sea, and a schooner load
of merchandise has been saved and
brought to Acapulco. The wreck is in
exactly the position described by the
witnesses in their testimony before the
court of inquiry. All that part of the
ship forward of the mainmast is above
water, and the smoke-stack is still
standing. The steamer Moses Taylor,
moored at Acapulco as a receiving
ship, will receive the merchandise
saved from the wreck. Capt. Nolan,
of the China, has been commissioned
to return Immediately to the scene of
the wreck and to remain there to save
whatever could be saved of the cargo
and generally protect the interests of
the company. He returned on the
Constitution to-day. Nothing has been
taken directly from the sunken ship,
but the merchandise constituting the
cargo taken to Acapulco, was found
floating OF picked up on the beach.

accession of Diaz to power left this
city to-day on the steamer Constitu-
ton.
A letter received here by a mercan-
tile firm from n correspondent at Aca-
pulco eorrobates the news of the cap
ture of that place and its bombardment
by the gunboats of Diaz, which con-
sist of two vessels. The correspondent,
who writes under date of June 9TH,
says two gunboats are off this city and
throwing shells into the midst of the
houses. At the date of writing no Sc
rious damage had been done by fire or
shell explosions. American merchants
have placed their books and valuable
papers in the house of the American
consul. 1t is yet an open question
whether the gunboats can retake the
city.
No mention is made of Alvarez re-
plying to the fleet with the batteries
from the shore.
Information received from other
sources is to the effect that Gen. jim
enez, the Diaz governor of Acapulco,
was killed in resisting the attack of
Alvarez. The gunboat which went to
the rescue of the passengers of the
wrecked steamer City of San Francisco.
is joining in the bombardment.

the next Democratic candidate for the
Presidency is gathering considerable
Roadway. 1t is privately declared that
Nlden's friends made Hendricks NOM
ination before he agreed to accept the
second place at the st. Louis conven-
ton, but Hendricks friends think TIL
den still in the field, unless the next
Congress takes steps to seat him in

still wildly declare shall be done.

All About a Fence.

Montreal, June 10. = Fresh trouble
Church authorities is creating some ex-
pice asked the Protestant Indians to
remove a fence from across the road
near Okla village. The Indians refused
on the ground that it enclosed their
pasture, and they had been allowed to
place it there of old. As the faculty
could make no agreement the clergy
laid their information before the auth
critics, and on warrants being issued
such was the feeling among the Indians
that the authorities of the district
called on the provisional government
for help. Seven policemen and SER
geants were sent up and succeeded in
arresting five out of forty-fve of the
Indians, for whom warrants We're out.
The rest of the Indians fled and re-
manned concealed in the woods until
the constables left the village. The
Indians then again assembled, and
Chief Jos. Oneskenat advised them to
resist the arrest. They armed them
selves with rifles, pistols and knives.
Their armament being completed, at
noon yesterday, they patrolled the viii
lage and detied the priests and their
people. Towards night many retired.
while a few stood sentry. AT 4 O'Clock
the resident priest at Okla discovered
his stables in flames, and about thirty
armed Indians promenading around
the church. The fire spread and in
two hours the church, priests resi-
denee. a granary containing 1000 bush
els of grain, the stables, coach house
and valuable contents, were in ruins.
A library of 1000 volumes, part in the
Indian language, We're consumed. The
origin is supposed to be incendiary. A
rigid investigation will be held as to
the origin of the fire.

Gortschakof's Reply.

London, June 15.-Further details Of
what is called Gortschakoff's reply to
Earl Derby are as follows: If the
Turks will make peace directly after
the Russians cross the Balkans Russia
will be ready to accord peace; hut if
otherwise she would have no alterna-
tive but to conquer Turkey and dictate
terms of peace to the Porte. If Eng
land wishes to prevent the Russians
from entering Constantinople she has
only to exert her influence upon the
Turks in order TO induce them to yield
Immediately after the Balkans are
passed.

NEW JERSEY.


Belyidere, June 15.-Yesterday after
moo a mill dam just above the town of

tated a fishing party, consisting of ten
persons, through the sluiceway. Mrs.
Reemers and her daughter, Julia Reem-
ers, Miss Crowley and Thos. Pressler,
were drowned. The owner of the boat
in which the party were, Mark Fischer.
and James Osfelt, were fatally injured

They Died Together.

Rockwell, June 15.-Garner, who
was to have been hung here to-day,
was found dead in his cell this morn
ing. His wife, who was permitted to
visit him Wednesday and remain with
him, was also dead. From letters left
by them, 1t appears that she carried
some poison with her into the prison in
her mouth, and gave a portion to her
husband. The quantity not being suf-
flcient to kill them, he first strangled
her and then killed himself Ivy twisting
wire around his neck.

Acapulco Retaken and Bombarded.
San Francisco, June 15.-Advices by

Alvarez, who has installed officers of
the Lerdo government. The date Of
Alvarez's entry is not stated. Very
little resistance vas offered by the fol-

by about one thousand Indian soldiers.

Berlin, June 15.-Military men here
who are familiar with previous cam
paigns in Armenia express the opinion
that the Russians have at last accom-
plished the strategic movements that
have been in progress for some weeks,
and that a battle near Erzeroum will
soon be fought. Suspicion is also en-
tertamed that the Turkish army is
much stronger than reported, and that
hot work will o . begin all along the
line. Fr.
The opinion prevails that Russia has
purposely delayed the passage of the
Danube, hoping that the victories in
Asia Minor would cause the Sultan TO
sue for Deace.

THE Russian government takes bet
ter care Of its army horses than of its
soldiers. The reason is obvious. The
Gar can bring out a million soldiers
by O mere dash Of his pen, but he can
not bring out a hundred thousand
horses without handling several mil
lions of dollars.
The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1877-06-16

THERE Seems to be q prospect that the
Gar and Sultan will shortly patch up a
peace; but it cannot last. Sooner or
later Turkey must succumb, and it
were better that the present war be the
last
