II WASHINGTON, March 9.-Mr. Middleton,
the banker referred to yesterday by Rerdell
in connection with the 1000 check alleged
to have been given to Mr.. Belford, said this
morning that the record of entries of checks
for August and September, 1879, does not
show one in the sum of 50, 900 charged against
Dorsey, as Rerdell said it would. Some of
Dorsey's checks, said Mr.. Middleton, "were
very badly written. His eyesight

An Explanation and Apology for Firing on
the Vessel.
WASHINGTON, March 9.-Secretary Freling-
huysen has learned from the consul at Cur
AGO that Immediately after the Valencia was
fired upon he called upon the G~overnor-in
relation to the matter, and found that he had
already begun an investigation as to the
firing and the regulations by which it became
possible. This Investigation was conducted
by the encouragement, and the offense was
found to be due to an old regulation of the
time of slavery and passports, and to the
fault of the police, who had not Immediately
presented the Valencia's passport to the
guard. The responsible officer of the police
has been punished and the regulation changed
so that the firing of shot by the fort is now
prohibited. The Governor has expressed re-
gret tor the occurrence.

Foundering of the Steamer Navarre-Sixty
five Persons Lost.


~Foundering of the Steamer Navarre-sixty-
five Persons Lost.
LONDON, March 9-The steamer Navarro,
bound from Copenhagen to Leith, foundered
during a gale yesterday. There were eighty
one persons, mostly emigrants. IN board,
only sixteen of whom were saved.
OF the Navarre's passengers, six had in
tended to embark for America by the Anchor
line, and thirty-three adults and ton infants
by the State line. -Four male emigrants,
named Anderson, Hogelberg, Nygren and
Mannell, were rescued and landed at Hull,
and five other passengers are on board a
Dutch fishing smack. Altogether six of the
crew and ten passengers were saved. The
Dutch fishing smack has landed the five sur
viyors at Hull.
Survivors give the following account of
the loss of the steamer:
On Tuesday, when 200 miles from Christ
ian Sand, the Navarro was struck by a heavy
sea. The cargo shifted, and on Wednesday
the fore hold filled. When a fishing smack
approached the Navarro, ten men took a boat
and boarded the smack, letting the small
boat go adrift. The smack sailed around the
sinking steamer, but, having no boat, was
unable to render assistance. The emigrants,
meantime, were clinging to the rigging, the
sea washing over them. In a short time an
other smack arrived, and fifteen of the Ma
varre's men endeavored to reach her in an
other boat, but it was swamped, and all were
drowned. The steamer arrived only in time
to rescue six persons who were struggling in
the water.
Mr.. Mannell, who for ~three-quarters of an
hour was c~linging to a piece OF timber, states
that the Navarre's pumps were found to be
useless. All on board baled the vessel as
much as they could. The captain seemed
stupefied. He was hurt on that day. and
from that time until the vessel sank drank
. Keep up his spirits.
Miss Alexandra Kotz, and a Swede bound
for Minnesota, and who lost his wife and
four children, have also arrived at Hull.
LONDON, March "a survivor states that
there were only five cork jackets on board
the Navarro. Mannell says the large boat
which the sailors took away without attempt
ing to rescue anyone, would nave held more
persons than were in her.
Twenty-Five persons were on board the Ma
varre when she sank, who made no effort to
save themselves, Mannell charges the cap
tain with cowardice, and says many more
might nave been saved.

Usual Result of an Attempt to Thaw Dyna-
mite.

P1TTsBuRG, March "a terrible explosion
of dynamite, resulting in the instant death
of one man and serious injuries to three
others, occurred this morning at 9 o'clock, at
the Flemings ~stone-quarry, at Dead Mans
Hollow, near McKeesport. Pa. 1t appears
that Daniel and George Henninger, Noble
Gilky and an unknown colored man were at
work in the quarry, and one of them tried to
tnaw out some dynamite used for blasting
purposes, which had frozen. An explosion
followed with a loud report, scattering rock
and earth in every direction. Daniel Hen
niger was killed outright, and George Henin-
ger and the colored man were so badly in
jured that they will die. Noble Gilky was
also hurt. but his wounds were of such a ma.
ture that he was able to go home unaided.

PARIS, March Six thousand persons,
most of them attracted by motives of curios-

this evening. The police, without resistance,
prevented groups from forming. Fifteen
persons were arrested. 1t is reported that
Louise Michel was among the number. The
police barred the passage of 500 men who
were marching to the Elysee, the residence
OF President Grevy. The affair was a fiasco.
After the crowd dispersed, a mob of 1000

carriages. The police finally scattered the
mob. The report that Louise Michel was ar
rested Is denied,

The New Charge Against Byrne Held to Be
Political.
PARIS, March 9.-The government, in the
case OF Frank Byrne, who was released from
custody last night, held that the new charge
brought by the Gritish government against
Byrne, namely, completely in the attempted
murder of Juror Field and Judge Lawson,
amounted merely to introducing arms into
Ireland. They claim that even if the arms
were intended for purposes of murder, the
offense was apolitical one.
