oHIo's PENlTENTARY.
Indications Favorable for It's Removal to
Mansfield.

COLUMBUS, o., Nov. 23-The sub-commit-
tee, consisting of Senator Kerr, Of Rich
land; Representatives Kitchen, Of Vinton,
anG McCray, Of Ashland, Of tho Joint legis-
lative committee appointed last winter to
consider the advisability of removing the
Ohio penitentiary to Mansfield, have struck
q rich find that, when known, will startle
the people Of the state. They have ad-
journed to meet at Mansfield, December 3,
where the committee will report by a vote
of four to one in favor Of removal
They find that it is impossible to remodel
the old cells in tine penitentiary here, or to
make two cells into one, and otherwise
public wants, without an outlay that would
not bs justifable Besides, they find the
buildings and land here can be sold for ST.
0D,0O0 to a manufacturing syndicate, and
that only S6OO, 900 is required at Mansfield to
convert the new intermediate penitentiary
there into a prison, capable Of holding
1900 convicts, which leaves a surplus of
$4O0,000 to be turned over to the state treas
ury.
Again the committee found the sanitary
condition Of the penitentiary here was the
most horrible in the United States and unfit
to surround even the vilsst murderers. One
half Of the inmates contract consumption or
maIarial diseases from the dirty waters and
miasmatic sewer influences adjacent to the
penitentiary.
One of the subcommittee told your cores
pondent that their report in favor of the
removal would meet with bitter opposition
when presented to the Legislature, but would
carry when all the facts were known; that
the Columbus prison was a wretched den of
rottenness to the state and to the prisoners;
that penitentiary at Mansfield would mean
better health to the prisoners and saving
annually of tens of thousands of dollars to
the taxpayers.
Said another committeeman: Mansfield
is the best location in the state for the peni-
tentiary and it will be removed there. The
Hamilton, Cuyahoga, Lucas and Montgom-
cry delegations are for it, and next winter
Columbus will lose it and in less than ten
months where has been. the vilest prison in
the Union will be found the hum of large
manufacturing industry, and the whole state
will re ioicen

NEW YORK, Nov. 26-One of the most
disastrous accidents which has ever occurred
to tow of barges in the vicinity Of New
York happened about . o'clock Sunday
morning in the lower bay. The old side
wheel steamer Bordentown had the barges
in tow There were twenty in all, and
coal-laden, except one, which was laden with
grain. The tow was en- route from Bergen
Point to this city.
When off Robbins reef the gale struck it.
The waves mounted the decks of the barges,
and water filled their holds. In Ia short time
some Of them began to settle. On board the
barges were thirty four persons, consisting
of their captains, wives and families. When
the barges began to settle there was wild
scramble for life, but all succeeded in reach
ing the decks of the Bordentown in safety
by jumping from one barge to the other.
In the midst of it all the stearing gear of
the Bordentown became disarranged. Her
captain whistled for assistance, and the
steamer was taken in tow, and together with
two of the barges was brought in safety to
tine Fort Hamilton dock. The other nine
teen barges went to the bottom. Some of
them were quiet new and were valued at
from "A, 900 to 5000.
They were owned principally by their
captains and had on board 25j to $50 tons Of
coal each. Some of the coal was consigned
to New Haven. The greater part of it be-
longed to Stickney & Conyham, No. Broad
way. The total loss is estimated at over
100000

HARRISON'S CABINET.
Opinions as to who VIII Constitute
His Advisers.

A dispatch from Washington says: The
fact that Harrison, one Of tho most reticent
of public nan, has not communicated any
intentions he may have respecting his cabi-
net, leaves the polit cal guessers free to spec.
ulatc widely on the subject. There seems to
be general agreement in Washington that
Blaine will not be a member OF the cabinet.
The expectation seems to he that no will
come to the senate in place OF Frye, who Is
to be member of the cabinet. John Sher.
man or William Walter Phelps is expected
TO be secretary of state. Allison is expected
to be secretary of the treasury. 1t seems to
le generally expected that Quay will be
made member of the cabinet, perhaps sec
rotary of the navy, and that Gen. Alger will
be made secretary of war for carrying Michi'
gan, and nj chener attorney general for car
rying Indiana. Warner Miller is the only
man mentioned for secretary of tho interior.
John Wannamaker of Philadelphia gets an
honorable mention for acknowledgement.
William Mckinley and Golf of w. Virginia
are also on the slate, but Mckinley has his
eye on the speakership of the next house and
Golf the senatorship. EVERYBODY recognizes
the fact that Harrison will act honestly and
Independently, and he will be throughout the
head of the administration. A telegram
from New York says: Ex.Assistant Secre-
tary of the Treasury Charles e. Coon, Rep,
thinks Mr.. Sherman will be secretary of
state, Warner Miller secretary of the treas.
ury and Mr. Blaine minister to England.
The New York Mail and Express, Rep,
thinks Gen. Alger will be secretary of war,
though Gen. James II. Wilson of Delaware
has chance; John c. New, postmaster-gen-
eral; Senator Frye. secretary of the navy;
Mr. Kitchener of Indiana, attorney general;
Senator Allison or Warner Miller, secretary
of tho treasury; th,t Mr. Blaine will sue
coed Mr. Frye, and that Mr. Reed of Main'
will be snsakar
