ACCIDENT TO THE FLAGSHIP TENNESSEE,

VARIOUS PHASES OF THE IRISH QUESTION

Disaster to the Flagshfp Tennessee.
RUN INTO BY STEAMER IN NEW YORK HARBOR
AND CUT TO THE WATERS EDGE.
New YORK. December 23-The flagship Ten
nessee was fOated out of the Brooklyn navy
yard dry dock yesterday, and proceeded to Ellis
island, In the bay where she anchored to take in
powder. While at anchor in the afternoon she
was run into by a steamer believed to be the
western Star which came up in the fog and
struck the Tennessee amidshps. The flagship
was cut down to the waters edge, and had to
be heeled over to one side bv moving the
artillery over to the side opposite to that on
which she was struck, so as to prevent the wa
ter from flowing in. 1t will be necessary to put
the Tennessee again on the dry dock, and it
Will probably be month before the necessary
repairs can be made. The officers of the Ten
nessee say that she was anchored out of the
channel, and that the fog was not so dense but
that the steamer could be seen from the deck of
the Tennessee and was hailed before she struck
the ship. The departure of the Tennessee for
Aspinwall was set down for Tuesday next. but
Will be delayed some weeks by this accident.

The Treasury Investigation.

AN EXPENDITURE OF S7.20O FOR WORTHLESS
HEATING ARRANGEMENT.
The Treasury contingent fund investigation
has brought to light the facts in regard to the
payment of So, 200 for new-fangled boiler, a
scheme in connection with the heating of public
buildings. This matter was mentioned in The
STAR at the time that the Meline committee was
at work under Secretary Window. The Senate
investigation shows that the o. 200 was paid to
man in Chicago named NcMullin who held
that his alleged Improvement would be great
saving in coal to the government. The improve
ment was perfectly worthless. The Senate
committee, however, brings out further fact
that the money was paid to McMullin upon the
recommendation OF ]. B. Hawley. who was then
First Assistant Secretary of the Treasury and a
candidate for the Illinois gubernatorial nomina-
tiOn. 1t has also been shown in the Senate in
