The Presidency of the senate.

Asthe election Of q presiding officer oil
the Senate is in the hands OF Republican
Senators, Republican newspapers are e1'
pressing very freely their opinions on the
subject. Senator Elmunds is suggested
because OF his long service in the Senate
and because he has been honored by his
party with temporary elevation to the
chair. Senator Sherman is urged because
he has ability and experience, and in
that position or in the presidential office
itself would command the confidence oil
the country.
The drift OF opinion, as reflected in Re
publican newspapers, is for Senator Logan
Isis urged that he is the most recent nom
inee Of his party for the Presidency OF the
Senate, having in view the possibilities o.
succeeding to higher place; that at the
polls this nomination was ratified by five
millions Of voters, aud that he has all Thu
qualifications OF the place. Some acCoun
is taken also Of the fact that by reason o
the long deadlock in the Illinois Legisla
ture Senator LogOn's reelection came sc
late ss 10 loss him his place on committees
and that now, unless somebody stepI
aside for him fe will have 10 20 10 thu
loot Of the class, like any other new
conner - an apparent injustice which
would not occur in the event OF his cleo
ton to the Senate Presidency.
1t is also argued that in the event OF the
death OF the President Of the United
statea, General Logan would be no un'
worthy figure in that high station, as the
five millions Thought who voted to make
him Vice-Prcsideut. In weeks time we
shall see what Republican Senators think
OF these several arguments az applied in
behalf OF the Senators named.

City Of Berlin, on the 10Th inst. at 1886 a.
m, latitude 4S deg 30 min., longitude 49I
deg. 80 min., struck an iceberg, stem on, /
in dense fog. The engines were going very
slowly at the time. Her bowsprit andI
headwork were carried away, but no dam
age was done below the main deck-line.
At Ais she proceeded quite slowly. All

|p m of the Goth, when it cleared
loft. The ship was run at about half speed
during the fog, and the steam whistle kept
blowing at intervals of about five minutes
On Tuesday morning, at about 2:3O the ship
came in collision with an immense iceberg
which carried away the jibboom, bowsprit,|

Many tons Of ice fell upon the fore]

cape with their lives, the fog being so thick
at the time that they could not see the ice1
berg until it came tumbling on the forward
deck, where they were standing, which
caused them to run for their lives. At the
time of the shock Chief Officer Tarleton and
Second Officer Barker were on duty on
the bridge, and. with great promptness, Mr.
Barker rushed to the bow of the ship to as-
certain whether the ship was cut through
below the water-line at the same time giv-

lowering in case the ship should sink Two

the others were being put in

cred that the ship was not leaking, when the
orders were countermanded. The censterna-
tion on board at the time among the passen-
gers can be better imagined than described,
as they were asleep in their berths when the
shock came. They ran helter-skelter, to and
! fro, screaming and praying, not knowing
but that they would go down with the ship
| in few minutes.
One of the officers stated to a United Press
reporter that il the vessel had been under
full headway she would have been stove
