DISABLED ON HER TRIAL TRIP
The Main Shaft of the Dispatch Boaa
Dolphin Breaks,

WASHINGTON, Nov. pa telegram
was received at the Navy DepartmenA
last night from Admiral Simpson, Presi-
dent of the Naval Advisory Board, report
ing an accident to the new dispatch boat
Dolphin, near Bridgeport, Conn, Thurs
day. The vessel was making her trial
trip with the members of the advisory
board on board. After the vessel was
disabled, the passengers were landed az
Bridgeport and the Dolphin was taken in
tow by a tug for New
York. Admiral Simpson expected to
reach Washington this evening. The ac-
cident was caused by the breaking Of the
main crank-shaft abaft the engine at a
place which received the greatest strain.
The shaft was of steel, and was made by
John Roach 81 Co. Upon examination it
was found that, while the exterior was
perfect, the interior was hOneyeOmbed at
the place where the break occurred. Mr.
Roach, under the contract, will make a
new shaft without expense to the govern
ment, and he has already begun its con-
struction. 1t will be at least two months
bsfOre the work is completed. The Dol
phin will not be dOcked until her new
shaft is ready.

HENDRICKS SEES CLEVELAND.
The Vice President More Than Ever I'M
pressed With the Next Magistrate.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-Hon. Thomas A.
Hendricks, Vice President-elect, left this
city this morning for Albany. A number
O. gentlemen of the Democratic National
Committee accompanied him, among
them being Senators German, Jonas, Cam
den, Barnum, Gen. Cary, of Ohio, and B.
b. Smalley. A large representation from
Cleveland and Hendricks Clubs of the
different mercantile exchanges went on
the same train to pay their respects to
the President-elect. The object of the
business men in going to see the Governor
is to tender their services as a bodyguard
on the occasion Of his Inauguration at
Washington.
On his return from Albany this even
ing Vice President-elect Hendricks said
to an Associated Press reporter: "Well,
I'Ve been to see the President and he
looks very well, very we'll indeed for a
man who has gone through so much IA
tigue as he has. Oh, we had very nice
time, quite informal, and l am very much
impressed with Mr.. Cleveland, more so
than l was in my interview with him,
which was last summer, after / came
from Saratoga. What do 1 think of the
campaign? In my humble judgment 1t
has been the most remarkable ever fought
for the Presidency"
"After Ohio what did you think?"
Il know good many felt shaky, but
was perfectly canfdent all through. Mr..
Tilden's campaign was, no doubt, a
splCndidly organized one, but a spirit per-
Vaded this one that from the outset meant
success. / have only this more to say:
If | stay here much longer l shall be
killed with kindness"

What the Outcome of the Cry of Fraud
VIII be Still in Doubt.
CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-In the Leman-Brand
State Senatorial contest, in which there
has been allegations of fraud, application
was made this morning before Judge
Blodgett, of the United States District
Court, for an attachment to compel the
County Clerk to go before the Federal
grand jury with the ballots and poll list.
This the court declined to do, but entered
an order directing the County Clerk to
show cause on Monday next why an at
tachment should not be issued. The
county board of canvassers this
afternoon decided that it could not 90
behind the returns, and that the vote
would have to stand as returned, giving
Brand, Dem, the seat in the State Senate
and allowing a Democratic majority in
both houses, leaving the Senate itself to
decide as to the question of fraud in the
returns. Whether the proceedings in the
Federal Court have any bearing on the
case as it stands is not known. The re-
turns will probably go to the State capital
tonight.

BERLIN, Nov. 22.-The German Govern
ment is credited with an intention to an
mex several islands in the PacifcEOcean,
as well as part of New Guinea. The
North German. Gazette makes bitter at
tack upon the English extensions which
have been made in the Pacific. 1t says
that the British High Commissioner
recently inflicted a mock sentence of
eight days Imprisonment upon pirates Of
the schooner Stanley, who were found
guilty of plundering several German mer-
camille firms at Longhein Island,
and who, after massacreing a
lumber of natives, took 100 of
them as slaves to Queensland.
The pretence of the Australians, says the
Gazette, to humanity has no basis in fact
and Germany is bound to insist upon the
immediate annexation of the unclaimed
islands in New Guinea, if only for the
purpose of protecting the natives from
English barbarities,

Whether Miss Leburche lost her bal

but when the balloon was about half a
mile from the starting point, and vet
ground, the crowd of gazers was ap-
palled to see her leave the slender
trapeze bar on which she sat, and the
balloon proceed without her. She was

the women and children foreshadowed an
awful fate for her. People from
all directions followed the course

soon the fair grounds was emptied
of the sympathizing and horrOr-stricken
women and children. Arriving at the
scene the poor girl was found stunned
from the shock, but strange so say with
