Another Crash in the Fog.

Ere the news of the disaster on the
Sound had reached New York, the
steamship Anchoria had left her slip and
proceeded down the bay and out to sea,
on her voyage to Europe, with $50 pass
sengers and full cargo aboard. On the
following day, Sunday, heavy fog pre-
vailed, during which 1.-THE Queen" of
the National line, struck the Anchoria
and stove hole in her bow.
The passengers were all safely trans.
ferred to the Queen without anyone being
injured, and both vessels headed for
New York, where they arrived safely on
Tuesday last.

The cause of the malarial trouble at
Princeton was an immense cesspool in
the College grounds, which, becoming
full, backed foul gases through the pipes
into the dormatories, right under the
noses of men who make sanitary science
a profession. The difficulty has been re
moved and the College will soon be as
healthy as ever.

TORTURED TANNER.

The Fast Steadily Persisted in-Frequent
Attacks of Vomiting Compelling the
Doctor to Remain on His Cot-But -Four
More Days TO Complete His Task.
New YORK, Aug. 1.-At noon to-day DR..
Tanner entered on the thirty-fifth day of his
fast. He slept we'll the night previous, and
appeared refreshed this morning. he kept
to the gallery all day, and was attacked with
nausea and vomiting at different periods,
throwing up mixture of bile and muous.
At 2:55 he got up to put on his clothes, but
couldn't do 30, as he had an
attack of vomiting. At 7:35 and $40
this evening he had other attacks Of vomit-
ing, and OF P. NJ. retired to mis- cot and ap-
peared to be sleeping. His medical ateend-
ants said he was in feebler condition than
yesterday, that the attacks of nausea were
unfavorable, and as they occurred after
drinking small quantity of fluid, it showed
the Doctors stomach to be in highly irri-
tated condition. One of the medical attend
ants said DR.. Tanner was failing every day,
but there was no doubt he would finish his
lf-imposed task. He said the frequent at
tacks of vomiting showed the coats of the
stomach were somewhat infamed. DR.. Tan.
ner took nothing to-day but a little carbon
ated acid water.

Tanner. O,stdo,,s.

lOshkosh (Wis.) Northwestern, July 26.l
While the whole country and perhaps large
portion of the civilized world are watching
with interest the case of DIR Tanner, and
people are wondering OF the exhibition of
starvation which he is perpetrating, there
are instances arising in the county of some
thing of q similar character which are none
the less wonderful. case of tenacity Of
life upon total abstinence, not only of food
Of any kind, but also of water or liquids Of
any kind, has arisen in this county, which
is exceedingly more wonderful than the case
OF DR.. Tanner.
There lives in the town Of Nekimi fam
lily named Murty, consisting of a mother and
two sons, Patrick and Michael. Patrick
Murty for some time has been failing from
softening of the brain, or some other brain
disease of that character. Over six weeks
ago his lower limbs became paralyzed and
the nerves that supply action to the muscles
of the throat also became psralyzed so that
he could neither swallow nor make an artIcu-
late sound. DR.. Noyes visited the patient
last Wednesday, upon which day he had
been Just forty-seven days since particle of
food had passed his lips. Up to nineteen
days previous to that day his attendants were
able to force small quantities of water down
his throat, but for nineteen days previous
they had been unable to do SO, and his tongue
and mouth were dry, blackened and hard.
ALI control of the throat having
been lost, water given him only
strangled him, and this was finally aban-
doned for fear of choking him to death.
There being no hope for him and it being
impossible to get nourishment down him,
the family were watching for his death,
which had been expected daily and even
hourly during all that time, and yet he
lived on. The mother, Mrs. Murty, and
the brother, Michael Murty, had had
the whole care Of him, and they state
positively, and, though no matter of in
terest to them, are willing to make oath
that for forty seven days previous to last
Wednesday, the 21st inst, not particle OF
food had been given Patrick, and for nine
teen days not drop of water. DR.. Noyes
made careful investigation of the oase, and
knowing the family, is convinced that it is
the truth. He examined the patient, who
was lying in partially compose state, and
found his pulse sc, respiration 12
and temperature 81, which
is very low on these points. The data here
given are based as taken last Wednesday,
the 21st inst, which was the time that DR.
Noyes visited the house, and if the patient
is still living the lapse of time since that
day must be added to this remarkable record.
DR.. Noyes has reported the case in full to
the Boston Medical Journal.

DmnneU Threatens an Editors Wtte.
Lanesboro Herald.

lLanesboro Herald.
Publishing paper in Lanesboro is not
such bonanza as to justify a man in sacri-
ficing his independence and becoming
mere puppet in the hands of the little big
men of the village in order to maintain his
position. A ''thrifty'' man, who can skin
louise for its hide and tallow, or adroitly use
the paper te get suck OF the govern
ment teat, may gain both
money and influence by printing
Lanesboro paper, but man who simply
depends on the legitimate business of the
concern will have hard work to make a
meagre living. We do not value the oppor-
tunities high enough to be alarmed by the
threat of one of Mr.. DunnelIs sub-hench-
men (understrapper to an understrapper) to
withdraw his valuable patronage from the
paper in case the editor does not entertain
and express such views on the Con-
gressional cat fight as may be agree
able to the faction he belongs
to. To insinuate that bread and
butter pressure will be applied is gross in
suit to any man whose manhood is worth
considering. To formulate it in broad and
brutal words-not to the editor himself,
but to his wife-is an offense that cannot be
overlooked. To this person and all other
persons who have threatened to withdraw
their patronage, we say withdraw and be
id. Perhaps it would be the best thing
that could happen to us.

TRAMP OUTRAGE IN WABASHAW COUNTY.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.
LAKE C1TY, Minn., Aug. 1.-About foul
O'Clock yesterday afternoon one of the most
daring robberies, accompanied by what will
no doubt result in murder, was committed
by three ruffians about five miles north OF
Reeds Landing, on the Lake City road, that
has ever been known in this community.
The particulars, as far as We have been able
to gather them, are as follows: Seven men
were travelling in company, looking for
work in the harvest fields, and had journeyed
together about four miles, when four of the
seven stopped for drink of water at a
farm house. The other three continued
their journey about mile further, when
they concealed themselves in dump of
bushes at the roadside and
LAID IN WAITING
until the remaining four came up, when
they emerged from the brush and covering
them with revolvers demanded their money,
which three of them at once produced in tho
following amounts: fifty cents from one,
seventy-ive cents from another, and one
dollar from the third. The fourth one,
however, seemed reluctant to part with his
hard earnings, and turned to run, when he
was fred upon by one of the robbers, the
ball taking effect in his lett breast, above
the region of the heart, inficting danger
GUS and painful wound which brought the
poor fellow to the ground, when his pockets
were riaed to the amount OF about forty
dollars, after which the
woULD-BE MuRDERERs AND ROBBERS
fled, taking course leading towards Lake
Pepin. The wounded man was taken to the
house of farmer near by by the name of
Busch, and word brought to this city, when
DR.. Crary was dispatched to relieve as far as
possible the sufferings of the wounded man,
and posse of men organized at once to en-
deavor to find the Williams who committed
the cowardly act. After a fruitless search of
several hours the fugitives were discovered
on the margin of the lake, just above Kings
cooley, where they were ordered to throw up
their hands and surrender, which they an
swered by a
BRISK FIRE FROM THEIR REyoLvERs,
which was quickly returned by the pursuers,
wounding one of the fugitives, but to what
extent is not known. The three then jumped
into the lake and attempted to swim to the
Wisconsin side, when they we're lost sight of
by the pursuing party. AS no boat was at
hand to follow them with they were obliged
to return without them. This morning men
are securing the snores of the lake in search
of the robbers. having been offered reward
of two hundred dollars by county attorney
Matchan.
THE WOUNDED MAN.
Since writing the above we have inter;
viewed DR.. Crary who visited the wounded
man last night, and learned that he is a
German by the name of Anton Haveresh,
that the ball entered the left breast between
the fourth and fifth ribs, and lodged some
where in the cavity of the chest, probably in
the lobe of the left lung, with the chance for
his recovery very doubtful. Haveresh had a
draft for ninety dollars on his person at the
time the forty dollars was taken from him,
which was not molested.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.--Within the mex
few days the national Democratic committee
will make an authoritative statement of in
terest to the soldier vote of the country. Fol
some time past, since the nomination OF
Hancock, the committee have been receiving
letters from various sources, in which the
writers ask what would be the policy OF
Hanoock's administration as to the tenure
of Office of disabled soldiers of the late war.
Many veterans who are anxious to
WHEEL INTO THE HANCOCK COLUMN.
especially in Pennsylvania, want some Of
fcial assurance that their MANNED comrades
now in Office shall not in any event be dis
turbed. Senator Wallace, chairman of the
Congressional committee, who has just left
Washington for New York, made the state
ment here that the success of the Demo-
cratic ticket would not mean the
removal of disabled Union veterans
from public offices. "There ought to
be-" said the senator, 'no serious doubt
ON this question IN the mind of any one who
stops to think Of the record of our candi-
date in defense of the Union cause. don't
speak now by authority, but feel confident
it would be more than safe TO predict that
if Gen. Hancock secures control of the
federal patronage there will be no proscrip-
ton prscticed against those who were
WOUNDED IN THE SAME CAUSE
for which he fought. They will, know, be
retained, regardless of their political views,
on the ground that disabilities received in the
war entitle soldier to the protection of his
government, no matter what his politics may
be. These, know, are the views of the
general, and they are also the sentiments of
the Democratic party, ss illustrated by the
course it has pursued in both branches of
Congress since it regained control. When
the Democrats obtained the patronage of the
House of Representatives one of the first
resolutions passed by the party In caucus
declared that no changes should be made in
POSITIONS HELD BY DISABLED UNION VETERANS.
The Senate took the same ground, and al
both ends of the capitol the Democracy have
retained a number of Republican office-hold-
ers, pursuant to the party doctrines"
In reply to the question whether Gen.
Hancock would adopt the same course, and
be willing to give public assurance of it over
his own signature, the Senator said: I" / can't
answer that question on the spot. He may
prefer 10 have it done in some different way,
but you may state that Gen. Hancock would
not countenance or tolerate the dismissal Of
his wounded comrades on the score of pollt-
ical difference, and that the party will soon
make some official statement on the subject
through tie committee or otherwise. 1t is
our purpose to fight this campaign on Han
cock Union platform, and that certainly will
be one of the planks."
