Terrible Experience of the Crew OF
the Schooner Douglass Hovey.l

GLOUCESTER, Mass, Feb. 10-The schoon-
er Douglass Hovey, Capt. Wright, from Bal
timore for Portland, has arrived at this port.
Capt. Wright reports that he left Baltimore

good run until Wednesday, Feb. Sd. ''We

were unable to make the eastern point, and
were obliged to haul off. We had to keep
the lower sails on in order to go out by Cape
Cod. When about abreast of the Cape, we
lost our flying jib. At this time the sea was
making complete break over u.s. We were
iced UP so badly that in order to shorten sail
we had to cut the halliards and let the sails

out through the south channel. On the night

FOREIGN.

LONDON, Feb. 9.-Mr Morley's address to
his constituents last night at Newcastle was
eagerly awaited, as it was expected to show
the temper and policy of the government. 1t
is so far the most important speech to come
until Mr. Gladstone introduces his Home
Rule resolution into the Commons II was
received with enthusiasm He began by an
appeal to the electors to reflect what a fresh
coercion policy means. 'You will instantly
have the whole island honeycombed with Sc
cret societies" (" he said. "a secret press will
pour out furtive personalities far more dead
ly and virulent than any now poured forth
You will have midnight drillings; you will
be very fortunate if you do not change pas
sive resistance against the collection of taxes
and the payment of rent money that are now
going on for open resistance. The money
sent for the purposes of the league VIII then
go to the more exeerable purposes OF dyna-
mite. At the end of all this is black confu-
slon Your last will be worse than your
first. You will be driven then by the force
of the opinion of the whole civilized world
to try that policy of eOnciliation which we
ask you to try nOw.s The government will
not content itself with the old Slovenly, shil-
ly-shally policy of half measures, but will at
last grapple with the problem in its difficult
ties, farcing every fact making whatever
sacrifice may be necessary, either of our
time, our energies, or our thought, in order
to put an end to this state of things, which
has brought so much wrong and sorrow to
Ireland, and so much humiliation and dan
ger to England" His concluding words,
spoken amid rounds of cheers, were: 1--WE
may fail; this ministry may fail; but the
course upon which we are about to enter is
the only course by which the problem can be
solved. We may fall; we may fall soon; we
may be short-lived government; but hope
| am sure, when L think of the nerve and
honor of the leader of the ministry at this
moment that we shall not be weak or
wavering government. A line will be fixed
upon; has been fixed upon. Mr. Gladstone
is not the man to leave it. He is not the
man to take great work in hand and then
turn, faint of heart, and think he will find
that some of his ieutenants are as resolute
and as intent as he"

HAPPY SEQUEL TO a SAD STORY
A Young Woman's Wonderful Es-
cape from Suicide and Her Subse-
uue1t Marriage.

NORTH ADAMS, Mass, Feb; 1O:-Lottie
Harrison, a prepossessing girl OF 10, has
been keeping company for few months
with E. r. Atwood, to whom her foster
mother, Mrs. Charlotte Harrison, objected
The young man was recently. refused admit
tance to the house, when the girl said she
would xiii herself. A pistol was taken from
her week ago, but she procured another,
seven-shooter ''Royer," and about 1890 Mon,
day night repaired to the cemetery. Seated
on her grandfather's grave, she fired one
shot in the air to try the pistol, and one sh OF
into the center of her forehead. The ball
did not penetrate the bone of the skull, but
lattened, glanced upward and lodged two
inches over the left eye. She was not rem
dered unconscious by the shock. She did
not attempt to shoot again, and walked
home, a distance of over mile. Medical
aid was summoned, and the physician ex-
tracted the bullet, which was so tlattened
that it broke in three pieces. On Tuesday
morning, the mothers objections having
been removed, the young man was sent Tor,
and the two lovers were married by Justice
of the Peace Bower.

MORE MoRMoNs CONVICTED.
Governor Murray vetoes the Ball Sill
Again.

SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 1O.-Samuel Fl. B.
Smith was convicted of unlawful co-habita-
ton in the third district court Of Utah yes
terday. Joseph McMurren pleaded not
guilty to the charge of unlawful co-habita-
tion. He then took the stand and admitted
his guilt. w. Fl. Lee did the same.
Governor Murray to-day again vetoed the
bail bill which had been amended and re-
passed by the legislature. This bill gave
convlcts, except in cases of rape and
murder in the first and second degree, the
right to bail pending an appeal, The gov
ernor vetoes the bill on the ground that it
would obstruct and perhaps defect the oper-
alton of the laws against rich men, or men
backed by powerful confederates, and ena-
BILE them to evade speedy punishment for
their crimes; while poor man stranger

SCOT AND SHOE DEALERS
Organizing a National Association In
Boston.

BosToN, Feb. TO- The convention of boot
and shoe dealers, for the purpose Of organiz-
ing national association, was opened this
morning in the Meionaon, and was called
to order by c. H. McDermott, of the Boot d
Shoe Recorder. j. B. Arnold of Illinois was
made temporary chairman, and Thomas G.
Newcomb of Boston, secretary. One hun
dred and forty-ive firms were represented.
Mr. Arnold, in accepting the permanent
Craftsmanship said, that a national associa-
tion was unprecedented in the boot and shoe
trade. There were many evils that could be
corrected by such an organization, that could
not be corrected by local organizations. A
committee was then appointed to draft
constitution and bylaws, and resolution
was adopted that every retail boot and shoe
dealer be legible to membership. The con-
yention then adjourned till o'clock.

A NICE POINT.
The Validity of a Will Disputed by
Boston Party on Peculiar Grounds,

CHICAGO, Feb. 10.-The mysterious mur-
der of James L. Wilson and his wife Clar-
issa, at Winnetka, ILL.,, in February, 1884,
was brought before the public again yester-
day by bill filed in the Superior Court by
VIM. II. Talbot of Boston, Mass, asking for
the partition or sale of the personal estate of
Mrs Wilson, together with certain town
lots in Fremont, Tazewell county, ILL.,, and
all her real estate in Dighton, Bristol coun-
ty, Mass. Mrs. Wilson had devised her
property to her husband, but it is charged
that there is no existing evidence proving
that James L. Wilson survived his wife so as
to take under her will. For this reason it is
claimed that the bequest and legacy lapsed
and that the property devised and bequeathed
to her husband descended to the heirs at law
of the testatrix just as if no will had been
made by her. Talbot is Mrs. Wilson's
nephew. James l.. Wilson's will devised his
property to several members of his family.
All attemDt will be made to ascertain wheth-
er Wilson died at the same time or subse-
uuent to his Wife'S demise
