No person was injured and the cargo is all
right. 1t will take possibly three weeks to
epair the damage to the vessel.
The ship Lady Octavia, in ballast for
New York, came in collision with the
steamer Champion, from New York for
Charlestown, striking the steamer amid.
ships and sinking her in five minutes.
Seventy.6ve persons are reported saved and

Fisher. From the 29th Of October until the
Sd Of November six survivors cluug to the
wreck exposed to the cold and storm
without covering, and kept continually wei
by the seas that swept over them. They
had some food, but little water to drink

Terrible Disaster.

The extensive cracker and candy manu-
factory Of Csrle 4 Sons, Kansas City, NO.,
occupying four brick three story buildings,
tumbled down and was completely consum-
ed by FIRE on the 9TH inst. At the time the
accident occurred, 107 persons, mostly boys
and girls from twelve to twenty years, were
at work in the factory, all Of whom escaped
alive except seven. The cause of the acci.
dent cannot be fully determined, but as an
explosion occurred simultaneously with
the fall of the walls, it is supposed to be
q repetition of the accident in York
York last year-a starch explosion.
As toon as the fremen had subdued the
flames, they set to work digging tor the
dead, and up to 10 P. M. had taken cut
three: Emma Kemper, Anna Becker,
Chas. Schublize. Those still missing, sup.
posed to be in the ruins, are Louise Hum.
mel, Andy Mcconnell, Geo. Kemper and
Jehny kemper. The buildings and contents
were total loss. Insured for $4,000.
A Horrible Crime and Summary Pun.
fshment.
The village of Ward, Todd county, MINI 4,
has been the scene of terrible tragedy.
1t seems that a Mrs. Coldale left her hus.
band and went to live with John Waldo,
bachelor neighbor. Shortly after, the home
of the brothers Waldo was burned and it
was intimated that Coldale was guilty of
the act. Next Coldale and his hired
man disappeared mysteriously and sus.
picious of murder were rife. A large mob
confronted Wslde, which so frightened him
that he confessed that he and his brother
Michael had murdered the men and pointed
out the spot where the bodies were buried.
The mob promptly hung him. The brother
Michael who had left the country, was or.
rested in q German settlement at Lake
Henry, stearns couty, and was taken to
Long Prairie on the 9th, where it is said,
the mob awaited him. The officer having
him in charge did not know the fate of
John, and probably did not learn it before
reaching Long Prairie, too late perhaps to
save his prisoner from the same fate.
