Disasters at Sea-A New Steamship
 Wrecked No Loss of Life Another
 Steamer the Rocks.
 ST. JOINS, N. F., July 4.-The fine new steamship F. W. Harris, commanded by Cap tain Sheldrake went ashore at the north head of Chance Cove Thursday morning last and has become a total wreck. The passen- gers and crew were all safely taken off the
 wreck and brought to St. Johns last evening,
 the former by small fishing schooner that
 was passing shortly after the disaster, and the
 latter by the mail steamer Plover, dispatched
 Friday night by Lloyd's agent at St. Johns to
 the succor of the wrecked steamer. The F. W. Harris was a fine ship of 1900 tons burden, and at the time she struck was ten days out on her voyage from Cardiff to Mon treal. She was in ballast.
 At the time the steamer crashed upon the rocks so dense fog masked the land that at cables length it could not be discerned
 with any certainty. The passengers were taken of the wreck several hours be- fore the crew. The captain remained to | the last, and only saved his life by jump ing into the water as the steamer gave a
 final plunge beneath the waves after rolling off the fatal reef Chance Cove lies about eight miles northeast of Cape Race, and has acquired mournful celebrity as the scene of
 several ocean disasters on large scale asso- ciated, too, with fearful loss of human life. Within few fathoms of the wreck of the F. w. Harris repose the crumbling remains of the once superb ocean steamers City of Phil adelphia, Cleopatra and Germania, besides
 many ships of minor importance. The pas sengers and crew of the wrecked steamer are taken in charge by the Newfoundland author ities, and are generously provided for. The owners of the F. w. Harris are Messrs. Dix on & Harris, of London
 The screw steamer Bear, 700 tons burden, owned by Walter Grieve & Co.,, of Greenock
 bound from Sydney, Cape Breton, to St. Johns, Newfoundland, struck a reef Fri
 day morning during the prevalence of dense
 fog near Saint Shotts, about three miles north
 of Cape Pine. She was got of after consid- erable effort, but the damage to the ships
 bottom and propeller is very serious, necessi-
 tating dockage. The Bear arrived at St.
 Johns yesterday in a very leaky condition.

Uneasy Europe-Preparation for War
 Turkeys Attitude Source of Anxiety.
 LONDON, July 4.-Europe awaits with anx- iety the next step in the Gr@co-T Turkish ques- tion- Batteries of artillery and war material are being shipped at Salonica, estimates for forts, batteries and torpedoes at the Darda- nelles are under consideration, ammunition is being poured into southern Albania via Volo, and the Sultan himself, in high state of nervous tension, summarily dismisses the whole of his private secretaries who over heard the discussion of the plans for the re- generation of Turkish finances. But it is not in the direction of Greece alone that the Turks are casting uneasy glances. Advices from Bulgaria state that an unprecedented activity prevails along the Danube Russian officers and men, wearing their own uniforms, are necessarily crossing the river into Bulga- ria and the Balkans into East Roumelia while fleets of boats continually provide Rustchuk, Silistria and Metropolis with arms and ammu- milton. Slav committees are agitated throughout the country by means of the cler- gy, gymnastic societies and provincial agents Sofia and Philippopolis merely await the word from St. Petersburg to take up arms for the union of Eastern Roumelia with Bulgaria. Indeed, as Pesther Lloyd remarks on the present aspect on affairs, the Treaty of San Stefano has only been temporarily su- perseded by the Treaty of Berlin. The King of the Hellenes, notwithstanding the rumors of a coming struggle for the extension of the new frontier, fingers in England and will remain until after the conclusion of the Vim bledon rife match. The Athenians, it is re- ported, are very much pleased with the at tention which King George is receiving in London, and doubtless they will feel still more pleased when they hear that one of his wealthy subjects resident in Eng land has made him 8 birthday pres ent of a check for ZIG, 1000, which is to be raised to $50, 900 by Manchester and other towns where Greek merchants are colonized One weekly journal whose political forecasts have been very accurate asserts that an Anglo French fleet will prevent the bombardment of the Greek ports by the Turkish iron-clads, and even at the cost of another Navarino and will maintain the decision of Europe in favor of the extension of the Hellenic Kingdom. The Berlin Kreuz Zeitung expresses the opin- ion that Turkish dominion is no@longer pos sible, and that Greece ought to occupy an in- huential position on the Peninsula.

 WASHINGTON, July 4.-Some inquiries

 American vessel by the Spanish gunboat
 Nuncio have brought such meagre results as
 to justify the belief that the reports if not
 wholly untrue have been grossly exaggerated.
 But in order to satisfy all concerned the Sec
 retary of State requested the Secretary of the Navy to send vessel to the West Indies
 to institute further inquiries and report as
 speedily ..as possible. Secretary of the Navy, as previously stated in these dispatch
 of the North Atlantic squadron, ..to perform this service. When the so-called outrages were first reportedl here the Secretary of State communicated thera to the Spanish minister, and the latter I,romptly questioned the captain general of Cuba on the subject, and the latter reported that there was no such gunboat in the Spanish service as the
 sNuncio" A suggestion was made at the
 same time that if the reports were true as to the firing on American vessels an armed ves- sel whose name was given as the Nuncio. said vessel was probably in ernment and her acts were intended to make trouble between the Governments of Spain and the United States It is believed that the visit of the Tennessee to Cuban waters
 will speedily solve all doubts on the subject. It is the intention of the Government to act promptly in case the reportsaproye to be cor rect.

A Strange Case-Driven Crazy by Whist
 IinR-Suicide to Esca pc the Nuisance,

be fatally injured
 | Strange Case-Driven Crazy by Whist Iing-suicIde to Escape the Nuisance. NEW YORK, July 4.-Charles Bubach a na- tive of Prussia, and a cigarmaker by trade committed suicide Friday by taking dose of oxalic acid. Louis Maybes, widower, and his two children boarded with him. Maybes and Bubach could not agree and the former was forced to seek home with his children in some other quarter. Since that time Maybes took to himself wife and went to live at No. 347 East Eighty first street. Both men worked at Straiton & Storms cigar factory. As fellow workmen they were forced
 into each others society, but they never healed the old quarrel or spoke to each other. Maybes took a peculiar method of aggravat- ing Bubach. Whenever the latter would enter the workroom Maybes would
 begin to whistle tune from '' Fatinit-
 za," German song, the English of which is, "You are crazy, my child; you must go to
 Berlin.' The constant repetition of this tune whistled into his ears, with malicious de-
 sign, resulted in driving the sensitive Bubach
 crazy. On Friday morning he was greeted
 by the obnoxious melody, which Maybes
 whistled with mocking variations He left his work bench and returned home and
 meeting his wife and father exclaimed, q
 cannot stand this persecution any longer I
 will commit suicide" His father remon-
 strated with him for entertaining such fool
 ish idea and advised him to pay no attention
 to his persecutor, but to return to
 work. This sensible advice he obeyed
 by going to his work in the afternoon
 Yesterday morning he left the shop abruptly
 from the same cause, and on his way home
 he bought bottle of oxalic acid. When he
 had reached his apartment he begged his wife
 and father to forgive him, and finding him in
 an excited condition they tried to soothe him
 by sympathetic counsel He went into the
 hallway and his father saw him take bottle
 from his pocket and drain the contents Soon
 after he fell to the floor in 8 fit.
 Medical attendance was summoned, but life
 was extinct on the arrival of the physician.
 For the past two months he had been very
 restless and nervous, and his mind had evi- dently been affected by the persistent perse- cution he was subjected to. He had com plained of spains in the head, which he thought had been occasioned by the heat.

Our Commerce With Foreign Nations.

Our Commerce W1th F0Tel&n A Ar1OmSs
 WASHINGTON, July 4.-The following facts and suggestions in relation to our foreign commerce are furnished by the State depart ment from recent reports of the United States consular officers: The Consul at Bor- deaux, France, reports that {, ,246, ,7s5 bush els of American wheat were imported at that port during 1879; nine -tenths of this amount being carried by foreign vessels. The ap- prozimate freight was $1 ,5o4 1926. By a careful attention to the wants of the German market, Americans can supply it to c larger extent than hitherto. For instance, $20,- oOo, 900 worth of cotton yarns and inferior grades of cotton goods are imported into the empire from England. American articles could readily supplant them. At Bremen last year $3, 5O0, 900 worth more of raw cot ton from the United States was received than in 1878. In American bacon at the same place there was an increase in the importa- tion Of $15O 600 over 1878. More attention to the curing and packing of this article would quadruple the amount and realize higher prices The high tariff injuriously af- fected the tobacco trade.
 Americans ought to enjoy the large market for calicoes possessed by England in Italy. Gaudy colors are preferred. American cot ton yarns ought also to find a market in the kingdom. No. 20 English is the staple yarn.
