Sunk at Sea.

Occurring so soon after the wreck of the
City of Columbus the loss of the State of
Florida, with 1876 lives, by collision in
mid ocean, is calculated to rudely disturb
public confidence in the seamanship of eur
ocean navigators. In the present case, it
would perhaps be unjust, in advance of the
official investigation, to ascribe the disaster
to neglect or carelessness on the part of the
ships officers, but it is difficult to reconcile
the evidence of the survivors with any
other theory. According to their state
ment, the night of the collision was clear
and bright and the sea smooth, yet neither
the lookout nor any of the officers appear
to have observed the approach of the col
liding vessel until it crashed into the
steamer amidships, and, badly shattered, i'm
mediately sank from the effects of the blow.
Nor does there appear ohave been any proper
concert of action after the collision in clear
ing away the boats and rescuing the pas
sengers and crew. Fully fifteen minutes
elapsed before the steamer finally filed and
foundered, and although that may seem a
terribly brief period to landsmen, it should
have afforded sufficient opportunity to
expert seamen, as the officers and crew were
supposed to be, to have launched all the
boats and removed the passengers from the
wreck. There seems to be reason to believe,
however, that the captain, who was in his
cabin at the time, did not appreciate the
imminence of the peril and, instead of hur-
rying the passengers into the boats, sought
to quiet their apprehensions that they were
| in immediate danger. As he went down with
his ship, the extent of his responsibility may
never be certainly known. Another painful
incident of the disaster is the circumstance
| that after the survivors had been picked up
| by passing sailing vessel the steamship
City of Rome fell in with them, but, instead
/ of offering assistance, contented herself with
merely exchanging signals, and that it was
not until some days after her arrival in port
| that the fact that she had spoken them was
communicated to the public. This certainly
is grave reflection upon modern seaman
ship, and would seem to indicate that in
their foolish ambition to make rapid voyages
the navigators of our steamship lines are
disposed to ignore the demands of humanity
the recognition of which has always hitherto
been regarded as the unwritten law of the
sea. 1t is to be hoped that ali the circum,
stances relating to this distressing disaster
win be thoroughly and impartially investi-
gated and the responsibility therefor def
nitely aseertained.

The truth is that this is al guess work.
Itwil take at least one, and perhaps several
ballots to determine who the unsickeied
delegates are really for, and the probability
is that they do not yet know themselves.

Jealousy Prompts Man to Shoot

Jealousy Prompts a Man to Shoot a
 Woman and Kill Himself.
 BUFFALO, Nov 9.-A well dressed young man ascended the steps of Louis Bork's house, No. 61 Gray street, yesterday morn ing Without pausing to ring the bell he opened the door and entered A few mo- ments later the report of pistol was heard. A window on the first floor was hastily raised and woman leaped to the ground and ran across the yard. A trail of blood fol lowed her. Two more shots were heard. The woman took refuge in a neighbor's house, where she tainted It was Mrs. Bork. A crowd attracted by the shooting entered the house and found Frederick Rose lying in the bedroom in pool of blood. A crimson stream was oozing from wound in his fore head and a wound in his breast. He was un- conscious He was removed to the station, where he received medical aid, and was then taken to the hospital. His condition was pronounced dangerous.
 It is said that Rose had been intimate with Mrs. Bork before her marriage, and that 1t was mutually agreed that if one or the other should marry he or she should kill himself or herself. The woman married and Rose be- came desperate. He urged her to elope with him. She refused. He produced pistol and fired at her. wounding her in the side. He then placed the muzzle to his own head and pulled the trigger. The bullet took an upward course and went through the top ot his skull. His work not being sure he put the weapon to his breast and fired again. The bullet struck rib, glanced up and went into the muscle around the shoulder, para lyzing the left arm. Mrs. Bork's wound is not fatal
