Governor Wells was about to read the affidavit of Juror Don- ipban upon which the charge is based, when Mir. Pelham arose and said that inasmuch as the witnesses for the defense were not here, and because he believed that the court would not undertake to go into the question of the guilt or innocence of the defendant, he would waive the examination. An arrangement was then made with Mir. Wall, Foote's counsel by which he is to report to the court to- morrow his intention with regard to that case If it is decided to proceed with the OK
 animation the hearing will begin on Satur-
 day. Governor Wells said that in Dickson's
 case he awaiting the arrival of witness

 rangement and an adjournment was had. The President has signed the treaty be- tween the United States and the Belgian gov ernment for the mutual extraaition of crim inals.

North Fourth street and was proceeding on
 her way toward the city, when she was run
 into by the steamer City of Worcester and a
 large hole stove in her bow. The steamer,
 which received but slight injury proceeded
 on her way, while the barge was taken in the
 direction of the Brooklyn navy yard, the
 nearest point. There were on board at the time Captain William Taylor, his mother,
 wife and three children, also two deckhands. The barge filled rapidly and sank before the shore was reached. Those in charge of the tug observing the barge going down quickly turned the vessel about and steamed in the direction of the sink ing craft. Owing to the darkness the men found it difficult matter to distinguish objects on the water. but hearing cries for help they hastily followed them up and suc- ceeded in rescuing Captain Taylor, but his mother, wife and three children and the deckhands were nowhere to be seen, having evidently been carried to the bottom of the the river with the barge. Captain Taylor was unwilling to believe his family had been lost and instituted inquiries along the river front to learn whether or not they had been picked up by any small boat. The steamer City of Worcester is one of the Norwich line and left her pier at the foot of Watts street shortly after her usual time. The cause of the accident could not be ascertained this evening, but it is supposed that the force of the tide was miscalculated.

The Shipping Interests of America.

The Shipping Interests or America.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-The second session of the joint Congressional committee on American shipping interests was held to-day in the Fifth Avenue Hotel. H. w. Rogers, shipbuilder, of Bath, Me-, testified that he had examined many wooden vessels built in the British provinces, where wood Is cheap, and never saw one he could not duplicate at equally low cost. He believed iron ship builders could do the same if the govern ment afforded them an opportunity to obtain their materials on equal terms. Par ker Whitmore spoke in favor of the abolition of shipping commissioners. J. H. Kimball urged the necessity of improving the condition of American ssamsn. Captain G c. Goss, of Bath, said advance wages to sailors and the lodging house system were most injurious to shipping interests and to sailors. He did not believe any reduction of duties would affect wooden shipbuilding. Tariff reduction, however, on ship stores would place American vessels more level with English ship owners.
 J. E. Burtt, of Boston, said the ratio of American to foreign sailors going out of this port was about one to ten. In former times the three months extra pay, which by law the ship owner is compelled to pay upon dis charge in foreign ports was just, but now ex- cept in case of native American seamen it was an injustice to owners. He did not con- sider free trade in ships necessity.
 Jarvis Patten, of Bath, proposed 8 number of remedies for exsting evils, including the establishment of department of commerce similar to the British board of trade.
