His Ship is Obliged TO Back Water to
Fl4 Ari Let the Monster Pass.
NEW YORK, March l5.-The steamship
Isaac Bell, OF the Old Dominion line, ar
rived in this port Saturday, from Norfolk,
and reported that on her way she had
been obliged to back water on account OF
a huge whale which lay directly across
the ships bows. Capt. Gibbs gave the
following version OF the incident: "on
the morning Of the 18th inst. 1 took the
wheel. The steamer was then scudding
along at the rate OF about eleven knots an
hour against northeast wind. This
course was kept until about 8 A.
NJ, when we were fifteen miles
from Fenwick's Island, off the
Delaware coast Suddenly, about 100
yards of the port bow, saw the spout
OF whale. The stream OF water elected
was larger and projected to q greater
height than had ever seen before, and I
became so interested in 1t that did not
perceive our close proximity to the mon
ster until its huge bulk lay across our
bows. Then there was at least forty feet
Of It's back exposed above the surface. This
exposed surface quickly calculated would
give me whale OF about seventy.fve or
eighty feet in length and OF unknown d.
ameter. l Immediately rang the bell to
back water, for / did not think that a
wooden keel could successfully collide
with q monster whale. The engines
obeyed the signal, and the keel Of the ship
was stopped within four feet OF the back
OF the whale. he lazily floated out Of the
way, and then we steamed ahead. The
last 1 saw Of the whale was magnificent
spurt OF sea foam"

Since the semf.ofIicial announcement
that Senator Davis will not be candidate

Is Hon. ]. N. Camden. " would seem as

many who would atteWpt II would

Under these circumstances does HON.
I. N. Camden want the nomination 10 the

FRANCE,

PARIS, March 15.-In the Senate this
evening, debate took the place in the
second reading Of the Ferry education
bill. Mr.. Pelletsu moved that clause seven
be reinserted in the bill. 'tis
Premier de Freycinet said, despite our
wish for conciliation, we have not again
brought forward clause seven in a new
form, because we think the original draft
was already comprmise. The clause
having been rejected, 1t only remains for
US to apply the existing laws. Pelleton's
motion was rejected by l49 to 1872. The
entire bill as amended was adopted, yeas
1877, nays 10S. In consequence OF De
Freycinet's firm declaration, tits probable
that the left will renounce their intended
Interpolation in the chamberof deputies.
At the meeting Of the left centre 1t was re-
soved to demand the application Of exist
ing laws to religious fraternities.

SAN FRANcIsco, March l5.-.rhere was q
large attendance at the Sand Lots yester.
day, including many OF the respectable
classes, drawn there by curiosity. Kearney
took an entirely new departure. He in.
vited the leaders Of the Citizens Pro.
tective Union 10 meet the leaders Of the
Workingmen on the Sand Lot for exchange
OF views, Promising them respectful
hearing. He also informed his followers
that the objects OF the Citizens Protective
Union had been misapprehended; that
they intended the use OF the association
for the ameioratien Ct the condition OF the
city for the good OF the laboring classes
and the restoration OF prosperity; that
some unscrupulous men had taken ad.

preston that violent measures against
workingmen were intended, whereas
nothing Of the kind was meant. His au.
dience received his novel speech un.
demonstIatively. AT the Metropolitan
Hotel last evening, Kalloch adopted
Kearney's cue, and spoke to q similar
effect. It Is evident that the Citizens
Union is making its influence felt.

New YoRx, March l5.-The annua
election Of trustees OF the New York Ex
press was held to-day, On Saturday Jas
Milton Brooks, son Of the late Jas. Brooks,
one OF the founders OF the paper, was con.
troller Of 126 shares, q majority OF the stock,
but Jno. Kelly succeeded In obtaining 25 oi
Brook k'sshares, which had been hypotheca-
ted for q loan not due till June and there
by carried the election.
Mr.. Brooks, In conversation with q Iri-
btrne reporter after the meeting, denounced
the proceeding by which Kelly controlled
the election. 'eThe % shares" said he,
"were given by me In the regular way Of
business as collateral for the loan, which,
had anticipated such move, might
have paid of without any difficulty"
Mr.. brooks will contest the matter in the
courts.
The Times says that among the shares OF
stock owned by Brooks were twenty-five
shares which he had deposited as col
lateral for q small loan. The loan was not
and Is not due, and Mr.. Brooks was and Is
ready to pay It all at any time
and under any circumstances. He
had regarded the shares as being
just as much in his possession as il they
had been locked up in his safe in his pri.
vate Office, but the Kelley men had found
out where they were and when 1t came 10
voting for Board OF Truestees Brooks
was treated to the entertaining spectacle
of25 shares OF his stock being voted against

CONFERENCE AT MADRID.

MADRID, March 15.-Most Of the Euro.
pean Powers, and also the United States,
have accepted the invitation Of the Span.
ish Government to q conference, which Is
to be held IN Madrid next June, and is to
determine and fix the rights Of the FRO
tectorate exercised by foreign Powers over
the subjects Of the sultan-very often, in.
deed, far beyond the rights conferred on
them by treaties. Morocco will send q
delegate, and the treatment Of the Jews
will also be examined. Most OF the Pow
ers are inclined TO name their resident
Minister in Madrid as their representative
in the Congress. Spanish opinion is very
jealous Of loreign predominance in Mo-
rocco, and views with especial disfayor
the great influence enjoyed at the Court
Of Tangiers by the British Minister. This
question is exciting public attention to an
unusual degree. INK
