HALIFAX, April 7.-Stories from the
terrible steam shipwreck still continue to
pour in. Among the curious incidents
connected with the escape of the seven
persons who landed in a boat during the
night, one of the most thrilling is that of
an Italian. He grasped the boat
just after she left the steamer
Her occupants refused to take him in be-
cause a number of other drowning persons
had seized his legs and body and it was
certain the boat could not take them all
without swapping, as she was already half
full of water. The Italian at once dived
and thus shook off those holding him.
He soon reappeared at the surface and
again caught the boat. Hewas then taken
in, but was 50 exhausted that for some
time he was helpless. The boat was in
danger of laundering, owing to water
that was constantly pouring in, and those
IN her took off their boots to bail her out.
The Italian at first refused to assist in
this work, but on being threatened with
being thrown overheard again unless he
assisted to keep the boat free, made an
effort to do so. Another singular escape
was that of NickOla, a lad of 10 years.
just as the boat left the sinking
ship he jumped from the bridge, falling
ihoo inc ooat On MS neau. ne sustained
no injury except having one leg bruised.
The youngest person on board, so far as
known, was an infant 3 months old. The
wreck remains in the same position. The
water is comparatively smooth to-day and
a large number of boats are graphing.
Three bodies were secured to-day, making
eleven in all. All bodies found are so
terribly mutilated they could not he recog-
nized. The faces are smashed in and the
eyes are torn out and otherwise disfigured.

TOLEDO, O., April T. The CONNER
cial Telegram will tomorrow publish a
remarkable letter from a distinguished
citizen of Cincinnati, giving a new version
of the story of the riot. He states the
home papers dare not tell all that their
reporters know about the riot; that the
coroner dare not hold an inquest because
the testimony would show there was no
mob, no need of military, no need for
them to open fire; hat they fired on un-
offending people, and hat such of the
policemen and militia as were shOt were
shot by the military; that Sheriff Hawkins
has no brains and lost his head; that the
firing was utterly uncalled for and cow
ardly; that ~bystanders could not believe
that bullets were being fred until they saw
them falling. The letter is very lengthy
and criticises the entire management of
the governor and his military staff, speak
ing with the utmost severity Of the fear
and foolishness and blOod-thirsty frenzy
of the sheriff with which he infected the
militia.

The band was in attendance and dis
coursed very sweet music, which taken in
connection with the p%rofuse decorations
and the elegant assemblage gave to the

pearance.
There were several tables loaded down
with elegant and useful articles which
were on sale during the evening, and in
addition there We're tables spread with
flowers and toys of various descriptions,

Reducing Salaries.

ST. LOUIS, April "A general order
has been issued by the executive commit
tee of the Gould and Wabash system pro-
claiming a reduction of 10 per cent. in
salaries of all officers and employees re-
9 living 800 per month and over, engi-
neers and train men not included. The
reduction is made for the months of April,
May and June, or longer if necessary.
Very little information can be obtained
regarding the reduction, but it seems to
be understood the main cause of it is the
serious damages by floods in various sec
tons both to the Missouri Pacific and
Wabash systems added to dull times on the
latter road. The reduction affects every
body on the roads with limit of order
from president down, and it is said will
affect a saving of 5000 0 per month. if
the business j~ustifes it,

FORT NOTES,

Plans are helng perfected to give an
other large german here on the 18th in
slant. Many committees, consisting of
different officers and ladies of the garrison,
are now at work busily preparing for this
great event which all expect so much to
enjoy that they deny themselves the plea
sure of participating in the regular week
ly hops given every Friday evening. Here
tofore the ladies have kindly furnished the
favors made by their own hands and which
have always without an exception done
the greatest amount of credit to them but
it is decided that the gentlemen shsll pm,
cure the delicacies fur the eom:ag german
and although their taste in choosing such
trinkets may not be quite as good as that
Of the ladies, nevertheless there is no
doubt that their efforts will be duly APP
preciated. Captain o. A, Coolidge viii
lead instead gf Mr.. John Gibbon, who
had the honor to lead the two preceding
germans. II can hardly be expected that
this german will excel its predecessor
which was without a doubt the prettiegt
german ever held here since the 18th In
lantry has been stationed at Fort Laramie,
The dancing will no doubt commence as
