Revenue Steamer Woodbury., Capt. Abbey.
which was notified at Bangor, Thursday af
ternoon, of the wreck of the City of Portland,
and reached the scene at six o'clock, paid
another visit at four O'Clock Friday morning.
terrible tempast was raging The wind
shifted to northwest during the night. The
waves had lifted the steamers wreck over
and off the ledge into deep water, shifting
her position from east north east to east
south east. Ali that was visable was the
working beam, steam drums skeleton, paddle
boxes and part of the stern portions of the
saloon trailed over the water in a snarled
condition held by the gearing. Quantities
of debries are floating about. The Wood
bury steamed around the wreck for an hour
cided to have wreckers tn attempt to save the
machinery. Capt. Abby says the striped
buoy of the northeast ledge on which the
steamer struck was not out of position as at
first reported. Pilot Bibber reported yester-
day that he will be held responsible for the
disaster.
The general verdict is that when the steam
er was taken from the outside course Capt.
Larcom should have been consulted. In as.
suming the responsible of altering the course
up among the islands, the pilot also assumes
the responsibility of the accident.
Old steamboat men say the Grindstone OF
E;sbaman's pass 20 never should be attempf
ed in the night and in this case the pilot
should have gone up through the Owls Head
passage. Pilot Bibber feels his position
keenly.

Union Pacific Wins.

New YORK, 23.-Kiernan's News
Agency is authority for the following
A conference was held between Messrs.
Sage. Gould, Adams and Smith, pres
ident of the Oregon Transcontinental
Company, whereby the loan called from
the Oregon TranscOntinental last week
has been taken up and the securities OF
the Oregon Railway and Navigation
Company passed into the hands of the
Gould party. 1t is said that the Union
Pacific people have thus secured a maj
ority interest in the Oregon Railway and
Navigation Company
In regard 10 thereport that the Union
Pacific has obtained control of the Ore
gon Navigation and Railway company,
it can be stated that people identified
with the Union PacI6e have large III.
terest in the Oregon Navigation, and
can. with little effort, obtain control OF
the property. The Oregon Transcontl
mental company has q loan due; 1t has
proposed to give notes with the Oregon
Navigation and Northern Pacific as col

The French Whinned.

PARIS, October 23.-Fuller advices
from China gives the following partic-
ulars of the French defeat at Tamai on
October Is. Lin Ming Schuan, Chinese
general, sent some of his soldiers
disguised as coolies to offer to assist
the French in their work of building
forts. Meanwhile the rest of the Chinese
soldiers formed an ambush near at
hand. Presently a signal previously
agreed upon was given, wheTeupon the
supposed coolies and soldiers IN am
bush made a sudden attack upon the
the French and hemmed them IN
on all sides. The French were
overwhelmed and rushed into the
the sea in the widest confusion. Adj
miral Lespes admits that 105 OF his men
were killed. He offered reward OF So
for each corpse restored. The loss OF
the French flag is greatly deplored.
Admiral Lespes endeaYored to recover
it from the Chinese by offering them
two new flags in exchange, but the
Chinese refused to entertain the bar
gain. 1t is stated in Paris that one OF
the powers is likely to take steps looking
to mediation between China and France
with a view to an amicable settlement
of the present difficulties. This power
is believed to be Germany. General
Campenon, Minister of War, asks au-
thority from the committee OF the
Chamber of Deputies on Tonquln al
fairs, to form a number of new battal-
lions under conditions of the bill for the
reorganization Of the colonial army.

had been attending Republican meet,
ing in another part of the city, passed

The Hardworking Ben.

TAUNTON, Mass. 23.-Butler spoke IN
Music Hall at noon to about thousand
persons, mostly laboring men. his
speech in the main was similar to those
previously delivered; he alluded 10 the
letter from General Parsons, which he
characterized as bosh, and said the last
time he saw that gentleman was when
he borrowed $40 from his business
manager in New York to get home.
Lee Cranlall, who backed Genera
Parsons, is, General Butler SAID,
another who frequently made big
promises but made lamentable failures.
Instead of the collapse of the Peoples
party which had been predicted, the
only collapse he had heard of was that
of the Democratic party in Ohio. He
then paid his respects to monopolistS
and said if he was in power he would
make speculation a penal offense.

clear majority for any candidate on the hIst
ballot, or on any preliminary vote OF import
ance was not expected Yet the opponents oil
Mr.. Blaine are OveriOyed because on such vote
as this they were able to muster tric more
than half of the Convention. And now it pleascs
them to say that - Mr.. Blaine was beaten on
Tuesday, rs Mr.. Arthur was on Monday
General Clayton was not proposed by friends
of Mr. Blaine. lie was nominated for tenn
porary chairman against an able and worthy
friend of Mr.. Blaine, largely by Arthur votes
But IL was aftcrward bruited about that General
Clayton was really disposed to vote for Mr.
Blaine and though that fact had been known TO
some for several days, the Arthur men. lnclud-
ing some who had voted for Mr.. Clayton In
committee, saw fit to attack him. IL did not
seem to most of the friends of Mr. Blaine that a
man who had been thought worthy of the
position of temporary chairman by majority
of the National Committee and who had been
trusted by President Arthur himself as leader
of his forces, ought to be thrust aside merely
because his convictions had led him openly to
prefer the nomination of Mr.. Blaine. 1t was
therefore most natural that nearly all OF them
voted for him.
Nevertheless, seventeen of them did not, as
was shown yesterday. These seventeen votes,
with those cast for General Clay ton. make 404,
only seven less than a majority of the COnven-
ton. There were besides. among those who
voted for Mr. Lynch over twenty supporters of
Senator Sherman from Ohio, sixteen members
from Illinois and ten from Indiana, VINO would
nearly all vote for Mr.. Blaine in the end as
against President Arthur. If any comfort can
be drawn from these facts by the opponents OF
Mr. Blaine, they are welcome to it,

4 CASE or WICKED P1RTNERS.

The statement of President Riddle of the
Penn Bank, is certainly remarkable dOcu
mcnt, and there is an individuality about it
which will no doubt tend To strengthen the be-
lief i'm its frankness. The writer begins by OBJ
serving: IL find that all kinds of things one
may take lifetime to do are of no avail when
misfortune comes. Therefore / must be plain"
The sequence here is not of the clcarest, but
under the circumstances it cannot be doubted
that plain speaking is in order. Mr.. Riddle
proceeds to state that he had been for many
wears completely absorbed in the Penn Bank, to
which he gave all his time, and in which he in
vested all his spare money AT length his
health gave way, and he had to absent himself,
but before leaving he gave instructions that the
accounts of certain oil brokers which were over
drawn should be made up. lie came back in
tending to retire from business, but was per-
suaded to become president, and then found
that his directions had not been followed that
the collateral in hand for loans to large amounts
had deprecated, and that the bank was III
danger of incurIing heavy losses. Then he
did not see what he could do to help the bank
but get up an oil pool, and this he did, and then
some of his wicked partners sold out privately
when the market had been bulled, and the
profits which should have gone to the bank went
into their pockets. Then he was taken sick
again, and some other wicked partners took ad-
vantage of his helplcssness to start the fictitious
accounts which have made so much sensation
and these wicked partners, who were the other
directors of the bank, allowed poor President
Riddle to toll and struggle for the bank till he
was nearly dead, and when he had arranged the
market nicely so that the bank would make
something, behold, in they would scramble, and
scoop up all the profits for themselves.
So il happened that the oil pool did not bring
the bank out even on its bad accounts, but on
the contrary merely whetted the appetites of
the wicked partners for plumber. and they be-
came more greedy rs time passed, and poor
President Riddle. who never looked out for
himself, was nearly brought to his grave in
striving to keep their hungry mouths filed.

BAPPY. on SMALL PROToCArIoN.

The opponents of Mr.. Blaine were overjoyed
on Tuesday. because the vote for temporary
chairman gave them evidence that Mr.. Blaine
was hardly strong enough to be nominated on
the first ballot. Personally, Mr.. Clayton was
Objectionable to some members of the Conven-
ton who preferred Mr.. Blaine, end who will
undoubtedly vote for him on every ballot. Mr..
Lynch, moreover on account of his race re-
ceived some votes that were not governed by
preference for either Presidential candidate. 1t
is certain that some of those who voted for him
will vote for Mr.. Blaine And, finally. no one
had supposed that the friends of all the minor
candidates would abandon them at the very
outset, before any trial of strength. SO that .

TFBRTBLE INDICTMENT.


The yew- York Commercial AdrCrtiSor ycstcr-
dav presented a brand new set of reasons why
Mr.. Blaine should MT b. nominated ut Chicago.
These reasons are set fogth in dispat oh to
that paper from Washington AMI no patriotic
American can run his eye over them without
becoming nyinced That the Maine stat csman
is so pcstiferOus a person that 1t really would
be gross tlattery to call him liend incarnate OF
even a rectangular parlllclopipcdon.
II appears from this blood-curdlmG, hair
raising, cheek -blanching, vitals-freezlnS DIS
patch that MIR. Blaine conducted himself Ill a
most revolving manner a few evenings ago at
Washington. He attended an opera, and
DOOR opcra at that; he f 4 to reach the
theatre in which the performance was given
until o o'clock, and he wandered "about the
aiscs in search of a seat" Verify here we have
sickcning revelation of the large capacity OF
the Maine statesman for phenomenal villany.
To have att nded poor opera would
have been disgraceful enough. But not
only TO do 40, but to arrive at
10 o'clock and be plainly seen " about the
aislcs in oh of seh"-why it's just awful.
The dispatch exposes The offence in all its naked
euormity. at WAS certainly not a little
"singnlar,r the telegram runs, "that Mr.Blane,
"who is not ordinarily given to theatre going,
"should have taken the trouble to attend not
every attractive performance" Singular
Oh. come now he AdrO'tiSer doesn't mean
singular. Ii means outrageous il the first de-
gree Our contemporary has certainly come into
possession of justification for opposing Mr..
Blainc's candidacy which is Is impressive as any
thing The Post has 10 oicrin that line. Came late
to poor opera and wandered about the alsles !!
And yet some people deny the doctrine OF total
drpravity
Would that we could stop here. Would that
this were all. But no. There is another count
in 7he Commercials CHASTITY indictment. Mr..
B,ainc's departure for his home in Maine has
been supposed to have been an innocent
exodus from the National Capital. But this
Washington dispatch strips off the mask. The
Commercials correspondent happens to
know the sinister significance of the
Journey. lie says that sir. Blaine
intended to start for Augusta in the
morning but that "at the last moment he was
"compcllcd 10 delay until the afternoon. Even
"thcn, although the cortcgc moved to the depot,
"thc cmb 'rkat0n took place only at the last
"mon"nt and moi until the receipt by the hands
"of Il iloct messenger of second mysterious
"trlcgran." There j. no occasion Tor comment
upon these 81 .nal proofs of "A dcprved Maine
mind. \ man who * capable o! intending To
start fol homcin the morning and pIocaStinates
until the afternoon. aud even then, instead
Of promptly boarding his train, delays doing 20
until the last moment is clearly not the man
for President of the United States
Ihc Commercials exposure is complete and
terrific. II is scarcely too much to affirm that
there ha, been nothing TO equal it since Mr..
Pickwick was confronted with "chops and
tomato sauce
