what Commodore Phelps Says About
The Jeanette Search Expedition.
Commodore Phelps, commanding the
Mare Island Navy Yard, reports in relation
to the fitting out of the Jeanette search
steamer, SAYS: 1.-The Rodgers has been
thoroughly strengthened throughout, includ-
ing heavy hanging knees, diagonal braces,
inside breast hooks, and partners for wedg-
ing, the masts strengthened where necessary,
with three inch oak planking. furnished with
composition ice crushers, spare rudder,
spare propeller, six superior boats, new sails
and running rigging and liberal supply OF
stoves in all the departments. The machin-
cry has been thoroughly Overhauled and in
complete order; three additional pumps and
one distiller has been supplied, together with
|
engines and appliances we're found entirely
satisfactory on trial under steam. In addi-
ton to a very large amount of stores and
pemmican purchased from the Jeanette
Search expedition appropriation, she has
received three years full navy rations of
nearly every description. 1t is estimated
there will be on board an ample supply for
thirty-fi five officers and men, and last fully
five years. In conclusion, believe am
safe in saying that the Rodgers has the
ability to meet and overcome the dangers
and difficulties of ice navigation in her
equipments and outfits. In the quantity,
quality and superior packing of her provis-
ions she has never been surpassed or per-
haps equalled BY any vessel fitted for
the Arctic regions"
One of the objects for an outfit for SO long
time is to have an abundance with which to
supply the people of the Jeanette and Of
the missing whalers, should the Rodgers be
so fortunate to fall in with them.

Attempt to Blow mp Hall in Liverp,

LIVERPOOL, June 10. An attempt to blow
up the Town Hall in Liverpool last night was
similar to that one made against the police
station. A large. piece of gas pipe 10 AIDED
with powder and discharged by means of
fuse against the door. Two men concerned
in the attempt were pursued. One jumped
into the canal Both were captured and
found armed with revolvers. The prisoners
were identified as two Liverpool Irshmen,
named McKevitt and Roberts. Both were
well supplied with money. Documents
were found on them connecting them with
the Fenians. Roberts has been for some
time in America. Both of them were sitting
on the steps Of the town hall this morning at
four o'clock, and took alarm at
the approach of policeman. leaving a ba z
containing the gas pipe. On the police en-
deavoring to obtain the gas pipe it exploded.
Nobody was hurt. The policemen were una
BILE to throw the gas pipe across the street
before it exploded.
In the Commons to-day, Sir William Har-
court, Home Secretary, stated that both of
the Irishmen arrested in Liverpool this
morning, in connection with the blowing up
the town hall, recently arrived from America.

the QUEBEC FIRE.


OUEsEc, June 10. Thousands of people
swarmed the burnt district yesterday. Fort
unately the suffering of those without means.
is not so intense ~ to call for special outside
assistance. Some 800 or 400 persons were
camped out, with their goods, on the grass
and at the confines of the city, but before
dark they were all removed under roofs.
Most of the sufferers are q respectable class
of people-clerks. book-keepers. etc. The
loss for them is very heavy. Various men,
bers of Parliament are here from the district
of Montreal, and tonight addressed strong
letter to that city, asking its cooperation in
lending assistance to the suffers. The coro-
ner will open an inquest to-day. Most of
the insurance companies will commence pay
ing losses Immediately, waving the usual
sixty days notice.
The excitement is subsiding. The fact
that there is less distress to be relieved than
on former occasions is very encouraging.
Insurance people are busy in receiving and
adjusting claims and seems to desire to pay
losses with as little delay as possible and
thus inspire public confidence.
There are still new rumOrs concerning the
orisen of the fire. -Four houses were found
simultaneously in flames when the fire was
discovered. but it is supposed the stables OF
Cartier Lupierer was the building in which
the fire originated. 1t is said drunken man
who entered the stable with candle caused
the conflagratiOn.
The rush for houses is immense. Fortu-
nately there were, according to directory
Just issued, over 500 empty houses in the
city oil the 10th of May. Those that are any
way Eligible are being rapidly taken up at
good rentals and still the demand continues
good. If is most surprising that more dam
age was not done in other parts of the city by
falling cinders. Whole shingles fell as far
as Bergerville, three miles from Quebec
The committee charged with the work has
already commenced collecting subscriptions.
There are individual losers to the amount OF
$4,000. The greater portion of the buildings
were wood.

There were several thousand stands OF
arms in the armory at the time. There was
a ventiiator in Sne wall between the wall of
