Mr.. Kunhardt Still Confident the Con-
serva Was Not Wrecked.
NEW YORK, March Notwithstanding the
fact that the loss of the gunboat Conserva is
largely accepted as established among shipping
men here, Mr.. Henry Kunhardt, whose cousin,
Carl kunhardt, was passenger on board, is as
confident to-day as yesterday that the Conserva
has not foundered. He says that he believes
she must have collided with some vessel, and
that such collision would do her little harm
because she is like a battering ram and would
cut through another steamer almost unscathed.
He advances the following theory in explana-
ton OF the finding of the Conserva's boats
HOW THE BOATS MIGHT HAVE BEEN LOST.
IF the Conarva had collided with any vessel
she would have Immediately lowered her
boats to save the sinking crew. The sea must
have been very high at the time and the Con-
serya, seeing they could do nothing with the
boats, may have allowed them to go adrift"
Mr.. kunhardt thinks there must have been
more than one vessel lost judging from the
amount of wreckage found. and from the fact
that the chairs and sofas found were painted
white, he believed them to have been the Nanti-
cokes. rather than the Conserva's which were
painted in colors. He is confident OF the Con-
serya yet reaching port.

THE TYPOS ELECTION.
Lively Scenes Around the Voting Place
To-day.

The scenes in the neighborhood Of Sd stree.
and Massachusetts avenue northwest
this afternoon reminded one of an old-fash.
Toned election day. 1t was election day with
the members of the Columbia Typographical
union. The thousand members of the union
make up as many voters as will usually be
found in good-size town. There is annually
considerable competition among candidates and
their friends and there is lively electioneer-
ing around the polls. The vot.
ing place was in store on the corner. Inside
the judges, Messrs l.. II. Julien, ]. L. Alver-
son, G. A. Tracy, J. S. p. Hogan and Angus,
Bruehl. and the receivers. Messrs. f. A.
Fleishell and NJ. d. Egan. kept a sharp watch
on the ballot-box. The members of the union
voted through window on the corner. The
polls were opened at o'clock, and during the
first hour large number of voters from the
government printing Office. or the
swamp" in printers lingo. deposited
until seven o'clock. before which
hour, the compositors from the downtown of.
fees and all from the government Office will
have opportunity to vote. There were many
electioneering devices adopted. One candi-
date had a man parading the streets wearing q
huge canvass bearing his name. There was
apparently, a close and lively fight for the Office
of president. The candidates are Messrs o. s
MONTE. William r. Ramsey and d. S. Walton
The other offices to be filled and the candidates
are as follows:
vice-President-Jas H. Brooks, W. Ludlow
Edwin Payne. Secretary-F. Ii. Padgett
Treasurer-John ]. Higgins. Reading clerk
r. W. Burnside, r. o. Terrier, Donald Munro
ergeant-at-Arms-Chris c. Auracher, Jas. c.

Coughlin. T. Il. Davidson. Timothy O'Sullivan,
l.. II. Patterson. E. W. Patton, j. Il. Seagraves.
W. L. Shields, Alpheus Sholl.
The most eager contest seems to be among
the twenty-one candidates for the four places
as delegates to the International Union. The
Office is considered an honor, and, besides the
successful candidates have a very pleasant sum-
mer trip at the expense of the union. The In
ternatiOnal Union will meet at Denver in June.
1t is expected that fully nine hundred votes will
be cast to-day, and the result will not be known
till tomorrow morning.

THE STRIKERS YIELD.
They Suddenly Discover there are no
Funds i'm the Treasury.

FALL RIVER. Mass. March 27.-The strike of
the weavers in this city ended this morning and
the operatives will return to work ON the old
basis tomorrow.
AZ mass-meeting on the park, which was at
tended by thousands of operatives, the execu-
tive committee of the Weavers' association ad-
vised giving mp under protest and submitting
their case TO the state board of arbitration.
This result has been reached at two meetings
of the board mentioned. held yesterday after
noon and this morning Secretary Connolly
stated thata majority of the committee realized
that there were
no FUNDS IN THE TREASURY
upon which so large a number of strikers
could rely, and thought it best to yield before
there was any suffering. The contributions
expected from outside quarters had fallen
below expectations. and under the circum-
stances ii would be wiser for all concerned to
resume their places. The Rev. John Brown adj
vIsed a similar course. and it was voted to re-
turn tomorrow. The gain in the number Of
operatives employed to-day has been very
light and manufacturers were surprised when
the result was announced, though no excite
ment prevails in the city.
