A HURRICANE AT SEA.
A Schooner Wrecked and One Seaman
Washed Overheard,


Washed Overheard.
The Northern bound vessels have met
with some pretty heavy weather during
the past ten days, says the New York
Herald of Sept. q, and it is the opinion
of the steamship men who have just made
the Northern voyage that there will be
many wrecks reported from the severe
hurricane which took place in the South
ern waters, especially among the smaller
sailing vessels.
The steamship Cienfuegos, which sailed
from CienfuegOs Sept. 10 for this port, fell
in with the wrecked schooner j. j. Taylor
about O'Clock in the evening, Sept. 1S, in
latitude 30 deg. II min. north, longitude
70 deg. 46 min. west. She was lumber
loaded, dIsmasted, and waterlogged. TIE
crew of the Taylor were in destitute
condition, having been without food or
flesh water for several Gays. They aban-
doned their vessel, and were taken on
board the Cienfuegoa and brought to this
port.
Capt Thomas Munford, of the wrecked
schooner, said that the storm was the
hercest that he had ever seen in all his
experience at sea, and they had about
gwen up all hope OF ever reaching shore
alive, when 1t seemed as though by a
miracle the Cienfuegos hove in sight.
They had sailed from Fernandina Thurs
day, Sept. II, for Laguayra. They had
good sea and fair sailing until Saturday,
Sept. 1S, when they were struck by hur-
rlcane. BY lAshing man to the wheel
and the balance OF the crew to the pumps
they managed to keep steerage Wav on
the schooner and keep her free until 9
a. m, Monday, Sept. 10, when, while lying
to under close reefed foresail, they were
run into by three.piasted schooner send
ding under bare poles.

cutting the Taylor down below the water
line, and she filled in less than two hours.
The sea was uncommonly heavy and
dashed over the vessel so rapidly at times
that it was with great difficulty the men
managed to draw their breath.
The sea abated slightly after daylight
and the masts were cut away to prevent
the schooner from turning over while the
anchor and chains were thrown overheard
forward. Philip Graham, a seaman, was
washed overheard about 10 a. m. and was
lost. Greater precautions were taken
after the terrible fate Of their comrade:
and each man was lashed more securely
to the schooner. They lay in this condi-
llon, with very heavy sea passing over
them, for about fortY-eight hours, without
food or fresh water; in fact, they had been
without either from the time they were
struck ~ the hurricane on Saturday.

who were aIGost exhausted, got the cargo

Thursday evening, Sept. IS, they were
taken of the wreck and brought to this
port yesterday morning.
Capt. MunfO-d speaks in high terms OF
the kind treatment he and his men re-
ceived at the hands of Capt. Faircloth and
The schooner that ran the TAYLOR down
is unknown. 1t was painted white, and
was apparently light vessel or was
lightly loaded.

RAILROAD WARS AvERTED.
The General Managers of the Western
and Southwestern Lines Form Pools,

Ihe deneral Managers of the Western
and Southwestern Lines Form Pools.
CHICAGO, Sept. 24.-The railway prob
lem in the West has finally been solved.
At an adjourned session of the general
managers of all the Western and South
western roads held here this afternoon
the initial proposition to form four pools
on Colorado and Utah business, taking
the Missouri river as the dividing line.
making two pools east and two west of
that river, was finally unanimously
agreed upon. The action of the confer
ence provides that rates shall be main
tanned until Oct. 6, when, provided the
agreement is signed by the Presidents of
the roads, the pools will enter into effect
ana remain IN force until the close of the
present year. There appears to be no
question that the pools will receive the
sanction of the Presidents, and the new
combination is already looked upon as a
fixed fact.
The. general freight agents of the several
lines Will hold a meeting to agree upon
the tariff. The delicate duty of arranging
the percentages has been referred to JO-
seph +. Tucker. As in the case of the
newly formed Nebraska pool, commits
sloners for the two pools will be named
hereafter. The result achieved today is
naturally looked upon as complete aban-
donment of the tripartite agreement, as
the advantages given under that compact
to several of the roads are entirely waived.
1t divests that combination of the power
OF making Western rates beyond the Mis-
souri, river, and the new compact provides
for the pooling of all the Union Pacific
business. 1t is not expected that the for
nation of new pools will result in many
advances nh lich nil hv1t
will simply insure their maintenance and
cause restoration of the tariff and rates
between Western and Southwestern
points

BLAIgE's TRIP WEST.
Speeches Made at Several Places In New |
York State.

Speeches Made at Several klaces In new
York State.
NEW YORK, Sept. 24.-Blaine started on
HIS Western tour this morning over the
New York Central Road in a special
train of two drawing-rcG,.t2 coaches and
combination car, The rear platform Ofthe
train was arranged as a speaking stand
when the train stopped at the stations
along the route. About thirty newspaper
men and prominent Republicans were
on board. Great crowds await
ed the train at every station
where notice had been given that stop
would be made. At each Of these Blaine
appeared on the rear platform and briefly
addressed the multitudes. AS a rule his
remarks were confined to acknowledge
ments of gratitude. Occasionally one of
the accompanying friends would take the
platform, and it sometimes happened that
the train moved off while they were
speaking, leaving their voices to fade in
the distance, as none of them reached
conclusion. A majority of the active Re-
publican politicians met the train at
some point along the route. At some OF
the larger cities, such as POughkeepsie,
Hudson, Albany and Utica, the stOppage
was more extended and time was given
for a political speech. The party Will
rest at Syracuse tonight.

STILL HUNTS IN OHIO.
Both Democrats and Republicans Pla.

Both Democrats and Republicans Play
ing at the Same Game.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.-At the Re
publican headquarters it is said that the
Democrats are making a very decided
''still hunt fight in Ohio, and that while
they are holding some big meetings they
are doing a great deal of quiet work and
seem to be mainly relying upon that sort
Of tactics. 1t is said that very recently
marked change has been observed with
regard to Democratic claims about Ohio
that some time ago they talked about
carrying the State, while now they speak
only of keeping the Republican majority
down, etc. Some of the Republicans be-
lieve that instructions have gone out
to Democrats to avoid anything like
bOasting with the idea of lulling the Re-
publicans into feeling of security while
the Democrats are working with all their
might. An Ohio Republican said to-day,
'If you will notice during the last week
or two the Democrats are not claiming
Ohio in October. In fact, they rather give
it up, saying that there is no use trying to
overcome the Republican majority. But
all through the State we find them work
ing like beavers and quietly telling their
people that if they will turn out they
will win, For two years past
the Democrats have beaten us
because a good many of our voters did
not turn out. and now they are trying to
create the impression among Republicans
that the State is going our way, while
among Democrats they are doing all they
car to convince them that if they will
only 90 to the polls they will win. That's
the kind of fight they are making"

MONTREAL, Sept. PA warrant was
issued to-day fer the arrest Of De Wolfe, the
New York bigamist, on a charge of forg-
ing certain drafts. His counsel will
probably apply for writ of habeas cor
pus. 1t is stated that DeWolfe counsel
applied to the Attorney General for a writ
Of mandamus to compel his removal from
jail, where he is now confined, to Tongue
POinte Asylum, but that this move was
checkmated by Advocate Greenshields,
who took out the above warrant in
behalf of his American client. Mr.. Green
shields says that DR.. Howard, Superin-
tendent of the asylum, and Or. Kingston,
had at the instance of DeWolfe's friends
given a certificate that he was suffering
from alcoholic mania, but that this was
rejected by the Sheriff as not being ac-
cOrding TO the statute. A new certificate
of insanity, Greenshields states, was then
drawn up and signed by DR.. Howard, but
DR.. Kingston refused to sign it, as he did
not believe that the man was insane,
