money mortgaged their land aud borrowed
enough to pay the Government price.
They raised fair crop the first year, and the
prospects were so bright that they mortgaged
/ their laBds and other property TO purchase
stock and farm machinery. 4he second yeal
they planted a much larger acreage. The notes
and mortgages signed by them bore exorbitant
interest.
About the middle of august severe frost

1NDIANAPoLIS, October 23d.-The drift of the

Indiana, but it is remarkable that there is very
little even at this late stage of the canvas. 1t is
explained that the timidity is faused largely by
the refusal of the Chairman of both co mittees
to give satisfactory inside informal ion. Both
are certain that their respective sides viii win
but they volunteer no advice on betting.
Lee SipclsIr, of Washington county, hes been

that there will re considerable after this week.
offered on the proposition tn 1t Harrison will not
receive 500 majority in Marion county. Pro-
fessional betting men are taxing all the bets on
Cleveland that they can get, but they think
Harrison will carry Indiana.
A Republican who has bet IS 900 on Hsrrison's s
election and expresses willingness TO put up
as much more, was asked why the pool room
propositions were not accepted. Republicans
do not go about pool-rooms," was his answer.
He further said the sum of 81 900 was received s.
few days ago from New York for & wager on
Harrisons election, and he kneW of gentle
man, prominent Indianapolis manufacturer,
who was willing to bet $4,000 that the Republi-

HOW THE CASE LOOKS.
1t was announced that of SS7d, ,SS7 6i turned over

The shortage, therefore, amounts to S429 457 50.

1t is believed that Axworthy's vessel property

million, and his bondsmen are secured. The
city will probably lose nothing, as the bonds
are good.
II is asserted that he is in Liverpool, Eng on
his way TO Belgium, and that he is well pro

New YORK, October 23d The steamer Atlas.
of the Atlas line, bound for Port Lemon, having
left that port on the 23d inst, was sunk this
evening off Vesey street. The steamer was
struck on the starboard by the ferry boat Cen
tral, and ten minutes later the Atlas sunk The
ferryboat struck the steamer on the bow
The only thing to be seen of the Sunken vessel
are the topmasts and tunnels. The Atlas was
coming up the river at low speed. There was
fog at the time. The steamer was about five
hundred yards out from the dock. The bow of
the Central crushed into the Atlas and bent the
iron plates like so many pieces of board
For second or two the Atlas trembled and
listed, and then began to sink bow first SO that
soon the propeller was out of the water. When
the collision occurred all hands on board the
Atlas were ordered on deck. The engineer
! obeyed the summons without stopping the en-
gine, so that the propeller whifled around and
around in the air.
In this position the steamer remained for
about five minutes The vessel then plunged
forward aud went down, apparently settling on
an even keel.
AS the steamer began to sink the crew and all
hands took to the rigging Just at this juucture
tug boats steamed alongside and took off all on
board.
