Great Gladstone.

Haywarden, % "A deputation of
workingmen of Derby, to-day, pre-
scented Gladstone an address expires
sive of the sentiments of Derby lib
erals toward the premier. The ad-
dress was accompanied with a
crown of Darby service of porce>
lain. Receiving the dep1tation
Gladstone made an address in
which he referred to the great pro-
gress accomplished in recent years
in the manufacture of porcelain.
He then referred to the ex-
tension of suffrage, regarding
which he said the measure would
ultimately, and he hoped very soon,
be presented to Parliament. He
had no fear of the enlargement of
suffrage, as past experience had
shown that the admission of people
to the franchise gives more strength
to the throne and such a law
would conduce to the greater union
Of all classes among themselves.

Utah passed through the city on bis
way to Salt Lake yesterday. He was
accompanied by bic family and Mrs.
E. L. Dudley, who with the governor
have been spending a couple OF
months in Louisville. KY, and in
Washington. A reporter asked him
about the Mormon question. "You
have read the bills probably. which
have already been presented in Con.
grsss,"
'I have the several bills and none
OF them has struck me go favorably
ss that prepared by Cullom of Illi-
noss. That seems to cover the
ground which the President recon-
mends in bis annual message,
and it recommends the
measure which l have sug-
gssted as the possible in nv re-
ports. I am in favor OF Cullom's
measure" said Murray, sand the
feeling is very strong in Washington
that it will be passed."

Casualties.

London, 22.-The survivors OF Ciie
Saint Augustine, rescued py the
steamer John Williamson, report the
scene on board the saint Augustine
as perfectly appalling. something
fell from aloft, cutting OH one Oh
the CAPTAINS legs. AT MS own re-
0uest a heavy weight was tied
sround his waist and he was thrown
INTO the sea, Several sailors drowned
themselves IN despair. The fire
soread with such rapidity that
eyerbody On board became panic
stricken. The John Williamson
rescued the men, including the Sec
end engineer, with q Life boat,Whlch
was smashed by the sea as they
were drawn on board. People were
seen on the burning vessel and sew
eral bodies were seen in the water.
London, 22.-The steamer John
Williamson rescued six more OF the
men from the Saint Augustine and
landed them at Nercastle.
Dover. England, 23.-The steamer
Grantully landed here one passen-
ger, the chief engineer and hfteen
men rescued with great difficulty
from the burning steamer Saint
Augustine. a heavy sea at the time
rendered futile all efforts to get the
boats alongside the vessel and the
rescued men were hauled on board
with lines and buoys. They were
the last that left the ship. The
mate shot himself and a sailor
stabbed himself during the fire
through fright. -,

Spencer Discharged.

Washington. 27.-In the criminal
court Judge Wylie rendered a de-
cision in the case Of ex-senator
Spencer, charged with contempt OF
court, IN failing to appear at the
Star Route trial The Judge held
that the subpoena was not
subpoena, because there was no pen
atty to it. It ordered the eX-Sena-
Tor to appear, but limited the time
to one day The subpoena, by error,
the Judge said, was for the civil
and not for the criminal cases. The
ex-senator. to be sworn, was here
before the time ordered by the so
called subpoena. He remained here
two weeks, and had sought an inter>
view with one Of the counsel, but
was unable to secure one. Under
these circumstances, and owing to
the fact that the subpoena had been
improperly served and returned, the
Judge held the case was not one of
contempt, and discharged the pri-
soner. During bis remarks Judge
Wylie said there was no doubt that
the object Of the ex-senator in 60
ing abroad last year was to avoid
the Star Route trial then in pro-
gress. What his reasons were in
wanting to avoid the trial the Judge
did not know.
Spencer says he contemplates
bringing suit for damages. In an in
terview to-day he said an investiga-
ton of the Star route trials by Con-
gress would be urged, the object
being to learn why some persons
were tried and others not, and why
so much money was paid to govern
ment attorneys. Dorsey was but
small fry in the Star route cases.
The western men are deeper in than
he, said Spencer.

A Small Matter.

Chicago, 22.-Mr. II. J. Mcdonald
son of the Premier of the DOmin-
ion of Canada, just returned from
Manitoba, contends that the feeling
of dissatisfaction in Manitoba has
been greatly exaggerated in the
published statements. The feeling
was confined to a few at
torneys, and was of no sig
nificance whatever. The farming
class did have grievance against
the railroads, but a reduction In
rates which seemed likely to occur,
would probably elevate the feeling
on that score.

choly has marked him for her own,
and all the drowsy spirits of a
South Cottonwood sorghum factory

repose which he owned year be-
