A RUM.CRAZED SEA CAPTAIN
Loses His L,fe Through His Own RASH
ness-kilied by His Crew at Sea.

LONDON, Jan. %.
The vessel which was towed into Plymouth
today, with the crew in state of mutiny.
was the British bark Wellington. from Havre
for New York. When the vessel was brought
in her name was painted out The mutiny
occurred Monday, off the Sicily Islands. The
three seamen who were injured were seri-
ously hurt by pistol shots. The captain $
body was found on board when the vessel
reached Plymouth.
Later particulars concerning the mutny on
board the bark Wellington are given bv the
crew. The ship left Havre for New York
on Jan. 2l. Capt Armstrong was in COM
mand. He had been drinking for several
days before he left port, and when he got out
to sea he increased his libatons until they
brought on an attack of delirium tremens
This eliminated on the 25th inst when the
vessel was 400 miles west of the Sicily Is
lands, in a spirit of ferocitv which impeled
its victim to imagine certain members of the
crew to be In mutiny. On that day he had
the boatswaiu, carpenter and steward put in
irons for four hours for some imaginary
otfense. The next day he assaulted the car
penter, and placing "a revolver at his throat
the bullet missed its mark and wounded a
seaman. The captain, evidently maddened
by his failure, swore he would shoot every
man aboard and began to flourish the re-
volver. The crew closed in upon him to
disarm him. He struggled desperately, and
was thrown down with such violence that his
skull was fractured against the deck and he
died seven hours later.

THE BATH FAILURE.
GOss Il Sawyer Want an Extension and
Will Probably Pay in Full.

BATH, Jan. 20.
The dispatch from Boston, stating the fail
ure of Goss & Sawyer and Cos, SAWYER &
Packard of Bath, is giving a wrong impress
ion to the public, and it was generally sup
posed that the two above firms are the New
England Shipbuilding Co., which is now do
ing the principal ship building. The two
firms sold their ship building interest to the
New England Co, one year ago, and if Goss
& Sawyer and Goss, Sawyer & Packard do
fail. it is said that fact does in no way affect
the n. f. S B. Cos business. Goss & Saw
yer and Goss, Sawyer & Packard have called
a meeting of their creditors in Bath the
4th of next month in City Hall and then they
viii! ask for an extension of time-eighteen
months so as to be able to meet their bills,
and if the extension is granted it is expected
the creditors will be paid in full. The debts
of the firms are not know as yet. Capt.
Goss is out of town. 1t seems to be tine gen.
eral opinion that the extension will be
granted.
The liabilities of the firms of Goss & Saw
yer and Goss, Sawyer & Packard are $780,
600. Capt. Goss estimates the assests at
5000, 900.

A SECRET POw.wOW.
Cleveland said to be Dissatisfied With
the Situation at Washington.
ALRANY. Jan. %.

ALBANY, Jan. 90.
What appeared TO be a sensational para
graph was printed in the Journal this evening
1t was to the effect that the President Elect
Cleveland was visited late last night BY ex-
Speaker Randall. in response to a letter of
invitation sent him in Washington. I'm
mediately after his arrival here Randall was
driven to Clevela nd's temporary abode, where
the two men held conference which lasted
several hours. This forenoon the talk was
continued, and at its conclusion Randall re-
turned to New York. Speaker Carlisle was
also mentioned as having been invited by
Cleveland, and is expected to arrive Sa,ur-
day forenoon. Col. Lamont today corrobo-
rated the fact that Randall was here and in
consultation with the president elect, and
that Carlisle is expected, but beyond that he
is extremely reticent. Rumor has it that the
president elect is not satisfied with the way
things are going on in Congress, and he
wants Massrs. Randall and Carlisle adopt
some fresh and vigorous policy.
