A reporter interviewed Fiegel, th
 German Consul General in New York, as to the alleged Mexican treaty. H- said "The statement IS one Of the most foolish lies ever dignifed by type. It carries with 1t its own reiutaticn have nothing to do with the negotiations between Germany and this or any other country excepting in so far as they re- late to the consular business. But hope that I watch intelliRentiy the ill., ternatlOnal affairs in which my countr,
 s concerned. I have, therefore, DO hes ltation Tn expressing my unqualified disbelief m The existence of such a treaty The absurd statement probably grew out of the fact that Germany and Mex ico are known to be engaged in negotia ting commercial treaty. The primer pes of the Monroe doctrine are well un- derstoOd and their jusiness generally re eognized by German statesmen, SO that it IS not probable that the Reichstag would go out of his way to affront the United States, nation which has proved so great blessing to thousands of Ger mans, to enter upon a Quixotic enter prise n imitation of Napoleon"

Rotten Steamboat Wharf.

BALTIMORE. July PA terrible ca
lamity occurred at North Point Tivoli. an eScur-
sion point on the Patap-co, ten miles from this
city, about 10 O'Clock last night, by which many
lives were lost, the number being estimated at
between sixty and seventy. The accident was
occasIoued by the giving away Of the outer por-
tion Of the pier on which several hundred per
sons were congrcgatcd, awaiting boat 10 re-

The Sun, in nn extra says: The boat had
made three trips to Tiyol The morning boat

q O'Clock boat 10. The latter boat reached the
pier at $ 10, and prepared TO take all hands
back the city a; once, requested by Father
Starr. The cScursionists, knowing this to be
the only boat dashed along the pier until they
were stopped by the gate near the steamer.
Some youths tried TO climb over the gate, and
a man and a boy seated themselves on the rail-,
with their feet hanging over, and sudden
movement caused the rail To break, aud the two
were thrown into the water. A cnmnotion fol-
lowed, aud there sudden crash and
chorused shrick. The spiintcrs new I'm every
direction, and about two hundred people were
struggling among the broken tirnhcrs In eight
feet OF water. The moon had gone down. and
the only light WAS .hed by two feeble coal oil
lamps. Some Of the rescuors took the bargc's
lanterns and set them ON the wharf Two OF
them exploded and added frcsh terror 10 the
scene. Those On the decks Of the barge threw
life prcs.rverS. stools aud benches into the
water. These struck great many and knock
ed them !n-c.,sibic. Others le, down planks
and ropes Some women were pulled up on
the wharf, and some were dragged into the
shallow .ntor. The movements OF the barge
caused warh, that carried those who were

and cattle. He found himself in the midst OF
Indians and settlement of whites of mixed
character.
Upon Mr. Royer's arrival at Hot Sulphur
Springs he made the acquaintance of Mr.. Frank
Marshall, of this city, from whom a reporter for
the Tribune obtained the story OF his career IN

A few months after his settlement in Middle
Park. he engaged in mining and contracting
with the Government for carrying the mails,
and the establishment Of stage lines. In 1879
he was elected to the office OF Sheriff. and re-
elected in 1881. Last fall he sold his interest in
the stage line and mail service between George
town and Hot Sulphur Springs to Mr.. Z. II.
Hook who had most of the time been his part
ner in the business. From that time to the
present he has devoted his attention TO mining
and the duties OF his Office as sheriff.
Mr. Marshall In recalling incidents of per-
sonal nature in his association with Mr.. Royer,
said that he had been exceedingly unfortunate
Twice within the past four years he had leg
broken, had his life imperilled by snow slides,
and last fall had desperate encounter with
grizzly bear. His only weapon was knife
The man and bear grappled In the struggle for
life or death, when after n hard fight in which
Mr.. Rover was badly injured, the bear received
a death wound from his eneiny's knife, which
WAS his only weapon Of defense.
Rover Is represented a man without any
bad habits, being always sober and attentive 10

until the recent fatal results of the Grand

because he made no arrests OF parties engaged
In the trouble.

The Champion Swimmer of the World
Drowned In Niagara River.

Buffalo, July 25.-Captain Matthew
Webb, the noted English swimmer, pcrishcd
in the attempt to swim the Niagara river
whirlpool rapids yesterday afternoon. He was
rowed in a skill to point In the river opposite
the old "Maid OF the Mist" landing by John
McClay, the fcrryman at the Falls, and leapcd
from the boat at two minutes past 4. The
daring swimmer passed the big rapids all
right, keeping in the middle Of the stream.
When he struck the whirlpool he was rushed
to the American side, where the waves are cs-
timated to be from thirty to forty feet high,
and the last seen Of him he was throwing up
his arms. His intention had been to pass the
whirlpool on the Canada side. His shoot Of
the rapids was intensely thrilling. The refusal
OF the railroads and hotels to have anything to
do with what they termed his going to his
death, rendered the affair financially failure.
The river has been searched for two miles be-
low the whirlpool, but nothing was found. II
Is generally believed that the body was en-
gulfed in t6e whirlpool. Captain Webb leaves
d wife and two children In England. Webb
was watched by people in carriages, but they
could not get ahead Of him. Frederick Kyle,
manager for Webb, has arrived from the falls
and gives up all hope Of his safety.
