1t Gould Not Have Been the Colon.

NEW YORK, November pa report
reached this city late last which has
caused great uneasiness among those
having friends on board the Pacific Mail
steamship Colon, which left this port for
Panama Thursday last, The report was
TO the effect that she had signaled the NAL
lory Line Steamer State Of Texas
about twenty miles south OF Hatteras
showing signals of distress.
The superintendent of the Pacific Mail
Company's line, when Intercepted in re-
gard to the report, stated that neither he
or any of the officers of the line placed any
credence in it.
"The Colon" he said, "could not have
been where the report places her at that
time"
lie further stated that Captain Porter,
OF the Colon, would not have permitted
the State of Texas to pass without send
inc some communication to US.
The officers of the COMPANY have two
theories as to the report that it was the
Colon. First, whoever displayed the
signals on the disabled vessel got them
mixed, and unconStously displayed the
signals of their line. Second, they were
read wrong by the master of the State of
Texas. They expressed themselves as
confident the vessel was not the Colon.

Thousand Dollars Ahead--The
Warden Annoyed.

BROOKLYN, N, Y, November Pot has
been demonstrated now that thieves can
not only break out Of Kings County Peni.
Tertiary but that they can also break into
it. The prison looks secure from the
outside, for 1t Is surrounded by high walls
with windows protected by stout iron
bars. Watchmen are supposed TO be al
ways around TO resist intrusion from the
outside as well as to prevent escape from
the inside. The idea Of an at
tempt being made by burglars
to break into the prison seems
TO be ridiculous To an unprofessional
thief it would seem like walking into the
lions mouth. 1t is not surprising, there
fore, that Warden Green should be slight
ly yexed when he was informed this
morning that burglars had broken into
the prison and robbed the safe In the
shoe-shop Of all the money which had
been brought there yesterday to pay on
the employees.
The burglars entered by window OF
the shoeshop on the Carroll street side.
They used stout iron bar or sectional
jimmy and pried the bars Of the window
apart. They took upwards of $4,000.
Detectives have been sent TO the Peni-
Tertiary to see If they can obtain clue
to the burglars,

seat from Davenport to Sprague Amob

ately surrendered and allowed the records

PAou, IND, November 2G.-Dubois,
Crawford, Orange and Pike Counties have
for long time had lawless bands, whose
crimes have given much annoyance. The
country is remote from railroads and tel
egraph, and facilities for the detection Of
crime are not good. But occasionally
the people have resorted TO vigilance
committees with good result.
-Four disguised men entered Jno. Fllck's
house In Orange County recently and de-
manded his money He refused at hrst,
but after being beaten until he feared
worse treatment he gave up 1000.
The same night the same parties fright.

At another place In Crawford County
another similar gang attacked Mr. Geo.
Patton while at supper The family fed
for their lives, while Patton endeavored
TO save his money. The gang threatened
TO kill him, and did nearly accomplish it.
Fora long time Patton refused 70 tell
where his money was. When almost
dead he gave up $500. Demanding
more, he told them that was all; but they
knocked him down, dragged him 10 the
barn and took $500 In gold which they by
some means discovered was concealed
there.
The same night they robbed a Mr..
Brown and wife, an aged couple, OF $500,
all they had. The entire country is
sgitated over these crimes.

which proved beyond doubt this mar

BAD FOR JOHN.
The Grand Jury Count Gives the Next
Illinois Senatorship TO a Democrat.

1ne Vranu Jury count owes tne NeAt
Illinois Senatorship TO a Democrat.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, November 2G. - The
Grand Jury remained in session until al
ter midnight, counting the ballots in the
Second Precinct Of the Eighteenth Ward,
and though Judge Blodgett authorized the
counting Of the Congressional vote only,
the Senatorial vote was also counted.
Then was made the astonishing discovery
that Brand, Democrat, had received 1873
votes, or twenty-fOur votes more, and
Leman, Republican, 1876, or twenty-four
less than he was credited with on the face
OF the returns. Nearly or quite 200
ballots were found 10 be straight Republic
can, with the exception only that Brand )
name was substituted for that Of Leman.
This ticket was fac-simile of the straight
Republican, and pastors were used only
10 a limited extent. This practically dis
poses Of the cry If fraud, and Brand Will
undoubtedly take his seat, The Leglsla-
ture Is thus made Democratic on joint
ballot with ma ority OF two, and tue
next Senator from Illinois viii be Demo
cratic also.

Incendiarism Causes Threatened With
drawal OF Insurance Companies
From the South

COLUMBIA, S. c., November 2G.-An
agent Of the Southeastern Tariff Associa-
ton is visiting counties in this State and
rating property for fire insurance.
From headquarters OF the Association
1t Is learned that South Carolina tops the
list of all the Southern States in excess
OF losses over receipts Of premiums.
During the past eight years her record
shows the amount to be 81 ,4is,255. TAX
Ing into consideration the fact that five
other States show losses for the same
period ranging from $500, 900 TO 81, OOO,-
600 many Of the leading companies are
seriously thinking OF
WITHDRAWING FROM THE SOUTH
Some will do so the Hrst of next year.
The chief causes assigned for the heavy
loss have been incendisrism, and in a
measure the construction OF 50 many
frame stores In ranges, causing whole
towns 10 be burned up st one fire. There
have been number OF buildings laid in
ashes In half dozen counties in this State
during the past week by the incendiaries'
torch. Death Is the penalty when con-
yiction is had, but the insurance feature
Is another question.
