HAVOC ON THE LAKES.
ThiITy-siX Vessels and AZ Lives
already on the List OF Losses.

ThiTty-siX Vessels and AZ Lives
already on the List OF Losses.
CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-The terrible gale
that ragged with unabated fury for three
days last week was one of the most disas-
trous storms that have swept the lakes in
many years. Tnirty-siX vessels either
foundered or were driven ashore aud sew
eral vessels are missing. Eleven have
gone TO pieces or have been buried beyond
recovery, and 1t is believed that quite II
number that now are on the beach will
prove total loss. The loss of life is
appalling. Forty-seyen persons are known
to have perished, and the crew OF the un-
known steam barge that went down
off Burnham's pier has not been heard
from. Ii tney are lost the list will be
sWelled to nearly 60. The loss in dollars
on nine Of the eleven vessels that have
gone To pieces aggregates $l3S,O00, but
partial LOSSES will bring the amount up
to fully 100000. This estimate is not as
large as some that have been printed, but
is probably more accurate. The aggre-
gate tonnage that has been wiped out of
existence will not exceed 5000.
LOST WITH FIVE LIVES.
MUsKEGON, MICH, Nov. 22.-The tact
was asceriained to-day that the missing
schooner l.. j. Conway, bound from Chi
cago to Nuskegon. was wrecked on the

partial as Possible.


partial as Possible.
NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-The taking OF
testimony IN the trial OF ex-Alderman
McQuade was concluded to-day. Lawyer
Newcombe spoke two hours for the de-
fense aud Col. Fellows two hours for the
prosecution. Recorder Smyth began his
charge to the jury by congratulating the
jury on the prospect OF speedy termina-
ton of their laOors and paid the usual
compliments to the counsel in the case
and the detective work of the police de-
partment. He had tried to avoid creating
any pre- udice in the minds Of tie jury
toward either side. He warned the jury
to bear IN mind that in every criminal
trial the friends of the criminals had to
suher; sympathy must not interfere with
duty. He defined the meaning OF the law
in the bribery cases, The prisoner was
charged with agreeing TO receive brlbe.
REVIEWING THE EVIDENCE.
Tho court then reviewed clearly the
evidence OF Fullgraf and Duty, and said
the undisputed points were the signing of
the call for the special meeting and lack OF
curiosity to know what the call was for
sustained the union of the thirteen for the
railroad franchiees and other points Of
minor interest. IL the jury believed Full
graf and Duly they would easily con-
wet. Tue cOrroborative evidence, though
rot positive, all tended toward tne prison
er's guilt. The Jury might cast ont
and totally disregard the evil
dence OF Duffy and Fullgraif
They had thai right. Full weight
should be given to the evidence Of tie
prisoners previous good character, but IL
must be remembered that very beinous
crimes have been committed by persons
Of hitherto good character. That others
were bribed should not prove the guilt OF
the prisoner. Duny's evidence should be
weighed in the light Of his own sin as q
briber and receiver of bribes. The Re-
corder's charge occupied one hour and
thIrty-fve minutes. The jury dined In
the court room, and then entered upon
consideration Of their verdict.
AT midnight the jury still being unable
to agree were locked up for the night.
They will he called into court at 10
O'Clock in the morning.
