THE WRECKED STEAMER.
Further Particulars as Cleaned by spec.
ial Correspondent.
ST. JOHNS, n. F., Sc,

ST. JOINS, n. F., Sept. 8.
A special correspondent who visited the
wrecked Hanoverian this forenoon, reports
as follows:
"When the steamer was of Cape Mutton
the morning of Wednesday, the captain saw
the button buovs, as he thought, around Cape
Race, and took Cape Mutton for Cape Bal
lard. Cape Mutton was passed at 6 o'clock.
He saw a fishing boat but felt sure of his posi-
ton and, anticipating no danger, did not
question the crew Of the boat as to his posi-
ton. The W ather was very foggy and the
wind southeast. The passengers believed
that the ships course should now be altered
and intimated the same to the third officer on
deck. soundings were taken at $50, which
showed l8 fathoms of water. Almost imme-
distely the deck passengers saw through the
fog a white house in Portugal Cove, and call
ed the officers attention The engines were
quickly reversed, but too late, and the ship
struck heavily being stranded 400 yards from
the shore.
Boats were quickly lowered and all neces-
sary arrangements made to leave the ship.
The passengers behaved with admirable cool
ness. All were landed safely together with
mails. Portugal Cove people saw the steamer
a mile off before she struck. Two promi-
nent planters. with crews, launched their
skiffs and went to the assistance of the steam
er. but the captain repulsed them and called
them savsges and other coarse names. The
hospitable fishermen of Portugal Cove shell
tered ali the passengers in their houses
Only a portion Of the luggage was saved, the
remainder with the general cargo being sub
merged.
The saloon tables are under water and the
ship is a total wreck. Capt. Thompson and
the first officer remained on the ship all night
waiting the arrival of a steamer from ST
rohn. The cause Of the los. of the Han
overian is explainable, only through the
action of strong currents setting north-w est
eriy"

A TOAST
To the American Minister Responded
to by Mr.. Phelps.

LONDON, Sept. B.
At the cutters banquet at Sheffield this
evening MIR. Phelps replied to toast to the
American minister, and was heartily cheered
He said that he had regarded the welcome Is
an indication of similar feeling throughout
En- gland towards America, which recipro-
Gated, and echoed the sentiments of love,
honor and devotion just expressed toward
the Queen. He was glad that the govern
ment had instituted an inquiry into trade de-
preston, which was equally existant in
America. He thought the depression was
somewhat due to haste to get rich, luxurious
living. and flooding the world with goods that
are not required and hence do not pay for
their production. In conclusion Mr.. Phelps
said that if anv word of his should linger in
the English mind hs first and last wish was
for the continuance of brotherly feeling be-
tween the English speaking peoples of the
world whose peaceful dominance gave the
best hope for enlightened. noble and christ
ian civilization.

The WORK OF EXPERTS.
Burglars Visit the knox n Lincoln Depot
at Newca>tle-Smail Loss.
NEWCASTLE, Sept. 8

NEWCASTLE, Sept 3.
The safe in the depot of the Knox & Lin
coin railroad at Damariscotta, was blow n
open by burglars Wednesday night, but rs it
contained little money there was not much
loss to the company. An attempt was made
to blow open the safe of S. u. Wyman 4 Son,
furniture dealers. After partly drilling the
holes the burglars desisted, frightened or the
drill failed to penetrate the steel. There is
no clue to the guilty. parties. The carpenter
shop of James II. Hilton at Newcastle was
also entered by breaking out a pane of glass
and removed stick and opened rear win
dow. They then forced open his tool chest
and took out his large chisels. Nothing else
in the shop was disturbed. The general
opinion seems to be that they were experts
A detective will probably be given the case
to work up. 1t is thought that the burning
of the station of the Knox & Lincoln railroad
at Rockland may be traced to the same
parties.

PROVIDENCE. II. l., Sept. 3.
Maud S. today made an unsucessful trial
to lower her record. Her failure was owing
to the weather conditions somewhat rs a
brisk wind blew up the home stretch and the
air was crisp and chilly. John Murphy drove
the runner Longman TO force the pace. The
first quarter was made in 80 sec, while the
half was completed in l 033, the fastest halt
mile on record. She was fairly fiying over
the course. She lett her feet, however, after
passing the pole, but was quickly steadied
passing the three-quarter pole in LAO. Muir
ply pressed closely upon her on the last
quarter, but the mare failed to respond and
finished the circuit in 2.l3. magnificent
floral collar was presented TO Bair BY the

A Remarkable shell Heap Discovered
At Falmouth Fureside.

PORTLAND, Sept. 3.
A remarkable shell heap that will COM
pletely throw in the shade all shell heaps
that have been discovered on the Maine coast
was uncovered to some extent yesterday.
The shell heap is located at Falmouth Fore
side and Is on land owned by the Undorw God
Water Co. 1t is apparently about 80 feet
deep at the thiokest point and runs back, as
far MS has been traced, about 100 feet. The
great age of the deposit can be inferred from
the fact that two oak trees. one nearly three
feet through at point just above the ground,
are growing near the highest part of the
mounds. Shells have been removed that must
have been buried many hundred years. upon
made but yesterday. The expense of remov-
ing the entire mass will be considerable, bui
will al once be undert ken by the proprietors
OF the Underwood, who expect to reap rich
under the direction of Mr.. Charles l.. Brow ne
of New York, and will probably be under
taken next week. Gov. Robie. Mayor Deer
ing and other prominent men have been in
