NEW LONDON, Conn, Nov. "A terri
bic calamity, by which six lives were lost,
occurred in the race on Sunday night,
caused by the explosion of the boiler of
steam dredge No. of the Atlantic Dredg-
ing company of Brooklyn. The dredge left
Providence for New York at '9:15 Sunday
morning in tow of the tug G. E. Waite,
Capt Tweedy. In order to keep the bilge
clear the steam pumps in the dredge were
kept at work. Just before midnight when
nearing Race Rock light, Capt. Tweedy,
who was at the stern of the tug, noticed
moving light on the dredge and heard
voice, but could not distinguish the words.
A minute later he heard an eXplo-
sion ON the dredge and saw fire and
smoke and steam. The dredge sunk imme-
diately, and the stern of the tug was drawn
under water before the hawSers could be
cleared. The Waite was at once put about,
but no trace of the dredge or her crew could
be found. After searching in the vicinity
for half an hour, the tug headed for this
harbor, arriving in the teeth of the easterly
galed that prevailed. AS soon as the storm
subsided the Waite again went out to the
race, but nothing could be found not even
a floating piece of the dredge. The tug re-
turned to port this evening. The names Of
the men ON the Inflated craft are not accu-
rately known. AS far as can be learned,
they were: Capt. Robert Kent, Mate
Strobs and his brother, the steward, of
a deck hand known as
SANDY" the fireman, and Providence
man who was working his passage to
Brooklyn.
The names of the lost have been ascer-
tanned as follows: Captain, Robert H.
Kent; mate, Andrew Straub; steward,
Herman Straub; engineer, Thomas Fitz-
patrick; Frank Finnegan and one unknown.

CINCINNATI, Nov. 2.-Govenor-EIec
Foraker returned from Virginia Saturday
evening. In an interview published to-day,
he expressed himself most strongly in
favor of Sherman as the next senator, and
in regard to the rumor that he might be

ated the idea. Speaking of the ring rule
and corruption in Cincinnati, he expressed
himself most energetically as to the course
that should be pursued by the citizens.
1.-The people," he said, ''must in this
instance punish and put down forever this
bad element, or they deserve their fate, the
ruin of the city commercially."

AnExciting Local Election.

Special to the Globe.
BUFFALO, Nov. 2.-Buffalo was proba-
bly, never in such whirl of excitement as
at this moment, but it is mainly on the
local canvass. A large city and county
ticket is to be elected, and ap-
parently every candidate on either
ticket is to be fought over tomorrow by
separate set of friends and enemies. In
this way the state ticket is ignored.
Pools are somewhat contradictory. AT Port
Hickox's rooms they entirely favored Hill.
A combination on Hill with Shen, Demo
crat, for sheriff, Titus. Democrat, for JUS
tice, Bell, Republican, for senator. was
ninety-fve for the highest on the list,
while the same combination with Davenport
in place of Hill was at 10. AT Hugh
Prices Hill with Bissel, Democrat, for
senator, Shen and Orr, was at
1913. while Davenport with the
same was at "a. Davenport with MCMILLAN
Gilbert and Orr led Hill with the same by

BUFFALO, Nov. 2.-Betting on the state,

to-day. On the contest for governor the
betting favors Hill 6 to 4; for state senator,
Mcmillan, Republican, and for mayor
Becker, Republican, lead. The outlook
to-day from neutral standpoint indicates
the election of the Republican candidates,

ing. The weather to-day has been dark

Special TO the Globe.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 2. = Mr.. A. P. Ed
gerton of Fort Wayne, Ind, has been very
strongly urged for appointment as a civil
service commissioner, and some of his
friends, While declining to state what the
sources OF their information are, say they
believe the president has decided to appoint
him. Col. and Mrs. Morrison have arrived
at Wizards hotel for the season. The
colonel disclaims any interest in appoint
mentS, and admits that he has not anything
to do between now and Dec. 7, except to
get settled Tor the winter and look on and
see the country governed. First Auditor
Chenowith has at various times since he
took the office issued interesting statements
that were not wholly useless as Democratic
campaign documents. He has now issued
one that the Republicans will find use
for. In his annual report he makes
comparison between force i and
work in his Office in 1861 and 1855. He
shows that the clerical force of his Office is
not quite two-thirds larger than it was in
1861, while the number of accounts has
good deal more than doubled. The number
OF letters written has increased more than
SlX-fold, and the amount of receipts and dis
burSementS audited has increased more than
eight-told. One of the principal charges
against the Republicans in the campaign
year ago was that the SupluS was too large,
and another was that the number OF clerks
in the department was out of all proportion
to the work done The surplus is now
larger than ever, and Auditor Chenowith
now shows that in the last twenty-five
years. so far as his office is concerned, the
work has increased much more rapidly than
the number of clerks.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-The silver
people are irrepressible; they have just
come to the surface with a new scheme;
not that they have abandoned any Of their
old ones. but they have simply added one
to their repertoire. Their latest scheme is
the creation of reciprocity treaty with
Central and South America by which the
trade relations with those countries may be
very largely increased, and thus an outlet
furnished for the surplus silver of the
country. They arguesthat as the money of
these countries is principally silver, if we
can increase our business relations with
them it will furnish a new avenue for the
silver currency of this country, at the same
time improving our business relations.
This enterprise they propose to push vigor-
ously as soon as congress assemblies and
hope to obtain some favorable action dur
ing the coming session.
