A Fearfnl plsaster at Sea.

WINNIPEG, Nov. "A fearful disaster
occurred on Lake Superior off Port Al
hun early this morning. The magnificent
iron clad steamer Algoma, of the Cana
dian Pacific railroad, was wrecked and
thirty-seven lives lost. Only meagre par
ticulars have been received up to the pres
ent hour, They consist mainly of tele-
grams to private persons announcing the
loss of friends. Mr.. +, Dudgeon, of this
city, received a few moments ago the fol-
lowing telegram:
THE Algoma has gone down. Your
wife and two children are drowned.
[Sipnedl JoE VIVIAN"
LATER-lt now turns out that the
steamer Algoma was coming to Port Ar
thur and not going out when the wreck
occurred. She left Owen Sound last
Thursday and was wrecked on Saturday.
The first known of the disaster was when
the steamer Arthabasca, of the same line,
arrived at Port Arthur late this evening
with the crew OF the lliated Algoma con-
sisting of thirteen and two passengers,
who were the only ones saved. The
A%rthabasca, which left Owen Sound two
days after the Algoma. came upon the
wreck at Isle Royale and found the crew
and two passengers in a perishing condi-
ton on the island.
The Arthabasca came along about noon
to-day, and as the channel is narrow could
not avoid seeing the wreck and the dis
tress of those on the island. A boat was
sent ashore aud brought therescued to the
A%rthabasca, which set sail for Port Ar
thur, where it arrived about : o clock this
evening. There is intense excitement in
this city tonight, as many had friends On
board.

A Desperate Lovers Dilemma.

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Nov. o.-Wm. VIII
bur graduated from the university here
on the oath Of last June. On the both
of the same month Clara Grecnby gradu-
ated at the high school. They were
secretly married, but have not lived to-
gether. When he has gone 10 the house
to ask her to live with him he has been
denied admission. This morning Wilbur
climbed over the roof. broke a window
and entered his wiie's bedroom with the
intention of begging her forgiveness and
asking her to leave her mother and live
with him. Clara was not in the room
and he went down stairs and found the
mother and daughter there. The mother
ordered him out OF the house. Wilbur
then seized a pair of shears and stabbed
them both, but not fatally. In court
he pleaded guilty to assault in the second
degree and was held for the grand jury.
The girl is very pretty. Wilbur is an in
surance agent and has a brother in the in
sane ward county house here. An action
for divorce has been begun by the girl.

SAN Francisco, Nov. 9.-The Dem
ing, n. NJ, messenger who brought the
news here of the killing Of Mn. Shy and
son, yesterday, was so excited that he
gave an incorrect version of the Indian
outrage on the Missouri Florida Cattle
company's ranch. Shy's house wa at
tackled by Indians, but Shy with his wife
and son managed to escape and arrived
here to-day. The only one injured was
the son, who was wounded in the thigh.
1t seems, however, that John Yeater and
wife, from Pitts county, Mo-, who left
here yesterday for the Missouri Florida
company's ranch, were murdered by the
Indians within five miles of their destina-
ton. Capt Chafiee's company, who
vent in pursuit of the %murderers, were
surprised, one scout killed and a soldier
wounded.

ovations to Gladstone.

LONDON, Nov. Q.-Gladstone arrived
at Edinburgh this afternoon. At Car
Isle, Lockerly and other places on the
route the crowds OF people were so great
as to impede the restarting Of the Liberal
leader train.
Gladstone in his speech at Edinburgh
said THE Irish question is about to as
sumo a new position because it is not now
the question of cruel grievances. Thanks
to the patience, zeal, energy and good
sense of parliament the grievances lave
one by one been removed, but | know very
well that my fellow countrymen in ireland
still feel and believe that one grievance
remains, concerning the management of
their own country as opposed to imperial
concerns. Formerly the electorate of Ire
land was so limited that it was almost i'm
possible to recognize its u|tterances as the
voice of a nation. The members we're
split into three parties. The Parnellites,
Tories and Liberals. Now Ireland elec.
torate is as broad, as extended, and as
well qualified to speak of the wants and
wishes of the people as are the celebrates
of Scotland and England. | am
confident that England will never
repent giving perfect equality
to Ireland. We must look a step further
forward and expect the party which is
probably in the vast majority in Ireland
to demand the large powers of self-gov-
ernment Such will be a grave contin-
gency, but let it not fill us with alarm,
because as long as we give literally. equIt-
ably and prudently it will be needless to
fear the results, assuming, always, that
nothing will be demanded that would
ieopardize or compromise the unity of the
empire. If such demand be made we
will know how to deal with it. 1t is I'M
just for the people of Ireland to suppose
that any other basis is contemplated.
Whatever demand Ireland may deliber-
ately and constitutionally make, unless it
infringes on the principles connected with
the honorable maintenance of unity of the
empire, we are bound at any rate to treat
it with careful attention. To stint Ire
land in the powers necessary or desirable
for the management of purely Irish mat
tiers is a great error.
