SAILING THE WHIRLPOOL.
THE ATTEMPT THAT COST WEBB
HIS LIFE ACCOMPLISHED.

c. ID. Graham Makes the Trip in Pc
cullar Shaped Cask-A slight Bruise
on the Arm His Only Injury-The
CHsk Tossed by the. Waves Like a
Cork.
BUFFALO, July u.-To-day G. d. Gra-
ham successfully accomplished the feat
of swimming the whirlpool rapids at
Niagara in which Capt. Webb lost his
life. The trip was made in a peculiarly
shaped cask manufactured by Graham,
and which was placed in the river on the
American side just below the Falls.
When everything was in readiness Ora.
ham got into the barrel and closed the
manhole at the top from within. At this
point of the river the current is very
slight.
STARTED ON HIS TRIP.
A small boat towed the cask out
into the river to point where the current
would catch it, and then Graham was
started on what might have turned out to
be his trip to eternity. The towing pro-
cess took only a few minutes and then the
stream caught the cdsk and started
it on towards the rapids and
whirlpool. At first it moved
slowly along, then faster and
faster until the mad current dashed 1t on
with its full force. The cask bounded
up and down over the great waves, and
several times turned a complete sOmer-
sault, but, generally speaking, the wider
portion remained uppermost, although it
twirled around like a top.
SAFE THROUGH THE WHIRLPOOL.
The cask kept pretty we'll in the centre
OF the river till it reached the whirlpool,
when it struck q strong size cur
rent and was carried swiftly through,
reaching the waters beyond in safety
From here the journey was comparatively
quiet. The cask tlOated on towards
Lewiston right side up and all
danger was passed. IL was
picked up at Lewiston, about
five miles below the starting point,
and Graham crawled out of the barrel un.
injured, with the exception of a slight
bruise on one arm, which he received
when passing through the whirlpool. lie
remarked: "When | struck the eddies 1t
was one continuous round of jerks, but
am not hurt a Bit"

A COALITION MINISTRY.
Lord Salisbury Makes a PROPOSE
ton to Lord Harrington.


LONDON, July 11--Lord Salisbury has
made overtures to Lord Harrington for
the formation of a coalition Ministry,
whose programme shall include local
government bill for England, Scotland
and Ireland; laborer's allotment bill
empowering rural labOrers to acquire
small holdings; reform and extension of
the artisans dwelling act, including the
dwellings Of farm laborers; a measure
for cheaper transfer OF land,
and the appointment of select
committee to inquire into the administra-
ton of the government Of India with
view of giving the natives increased con-
troll. III Lord Harrington assentS 10 the
formation OF coalition Ministry, the
Cabinet will include MIR. Goshen, Sir
Henry James aGd the Duke Of Argyl,
but not Mr.. Chamberlain.
The total vote pOlled up to Saturday
night was: UnIonists, l,209,S14; Glad
stOnian, I,11S,9T3.
All the morning newspapers, even the
Daily News, rejoice that Lord harrington
has been reelected TO Parliament.
SHAKINESs OF THE COALITION.
MIR. Labouchere in an interview today
said: 81 am confident that Mr.. Gladstone
will resign and that the Conservatives
will take office. Any coalition between
the Tories aud Unlonists cannot last
twenty minutes in which Mr.. Chamber
lain and his party do not count. Mr..
Chamberlain and Mr.. Caine are the ouly
two worth considering. The Liberal de-
feat arises from MIR. Gladstone's failure to
make the land bill clear, the Radicals not
seeing the force of buying out the land
lords. Inc cry of three acres and a cow
mas not done any good. 1t would have
been better to nave talked Of half
an acre and a calf Tne
labOrer would understand that.
l do not think the Tories Will adopt
home rule policy. 1t is not to their inter-
est to settle the Irish question, but rather
to keep it open. The Tories used Mr..
Chamberlain nicely, but he does not see
it. They will throw him over when it suits
their purpose. 1t will be a long time be-
fore the irish question is settled. 1T can
not possibly be settled by the next Parlla-
ment. The counties know nothing of the
question, and when they have been eGu-
Gated MIR. Gladstone will win hands down.
This will be the great work Of the radicals
in the immediate future"
Of ninety-hVe seats remaining TO be
contested fifty-one were formerly held by
GladstOnians, 10 by Conservatives, II by
UniOnists aud l3 by Parnellites.

madeus. Boys sell her photographs to
the worshipers, and there is scarcely
glrl in town who does not possess at least
two of them in different poses and charac-
ters upon her dressing table. But at these
receptions one never sees a man. There
was an unusual scene at the theatre
night or two ago. The men in the audi
ence hlssed Miss Winston. The girls i'm
mediately rose to their feet, cried
SHAME" clapped their hands Vio-
lently to drown the kissing, and created
great excitement by their demonstrations
OF support. The next day the actress re-
ceiVed over 100 notes OF sympathy and
announcement from her girlish admirers,
and no end OF bouquets. 1t is claimed by
the profession that the kissing was an
advertising dodge, started by hired
claquers To stimulate the interest of the
girls, but whether it was or not, the incl
dent resulted greatly to the advantage OF
Miss Winston. the house being crammed
every night for the rest OF the week.
A TEXANS QUEER ARGUMENT.
Attorney General Garland has to listen
TO great many queer appeals from the
friends Of people who have broken the
laws of the United States and are being
punished for their Otlenses. With few
exceptions every prisoner who has any
''lnhooence" whatever brings IL to bear
TO get him pardon. Usually the request
ls presented by the suffering wife, some
times accompanied by the suffering chill
dren, and the most varied and startling
reasons are presented why the much
abused husband and father should be
immediately set at liberty. The queerest
case recently presented TO the Attorney
General WAS that OF two young men in
Texas who, being penniless and far from
home through the failure of man who
had employed them and not through any
fault Of their own, stopped a coach on
remote stage line and took the watches
and the money OF the passengers and dis
appeared. They were caught, convicted
and sent TO the penitentiary. The Texas
Senators with "a delegation of Texans
called on the Attorney General the other
day to ask that these highwaymen might
be pardoned. They gave, as their
reasons for asking the pardon, that these
men were young and well connected and
that 1t was their first oflense and they
hoped the Attorney General would be easy
with them. The Attorney General did
not seem inclined to be merclful, as he
could not see, apparently, single re-
deeming feature in the case, and it looked
very much as If they would have to 20 to
the President with the Attorney General
against them. At last one OF the Texans
could stand it no longer, and ne broke out
with, "Dou't you think 1t something,
sir, that those two young fellows should
have held up that coach with nothing but
their two rifles. There were nearly
dozen men in that coach, yet those two
young men held it up for two hours. That's
no common bravery" This made
the Attorney General laugh, and conse-
quently helped their case, but evidently
it was quite serious argument with
them, weighing probably more than any
OF the others they had heard the Senators
present so learnedly.
