Graphic Description of the Loss of the
Vessels.


Vessels.
CHICAGO, March 31st.-Further particu-
lars of the disastrous storm at Apia have
just been received. The hurricane burst
upon the harbor suddenly. The German
man -of-war Eber was the first vessel to
drag her anchor. She became unmanage-
able, and was driven helplessly upon the
reef which runs around the harbor. She
was struck broadside at o'clock in the
morning. The shock caused her to lurch
and to stagger back, and she sank
in moment, in deep water. Most of her
men were under the matches, and scarcely
a soul of them escaped.
The German warship Adler, was next to
succumb. She was lifted bodily by
gigantic wave, and cast on her, beam ends
on the reef. A terrible struggle for life en-
sued among the sailors and officers abroad.
Many plunged into the raging surf and
struck out, reaching the shore in safety
Others clung to the rigging until the masts
fell. Of these il the rigging, only two
gained the shore.
The Captain of the Adler and several
other officers were saved In the meantime
the United States steamship Music had
been dragging her anchor and drifting to-
ward shore. The Captain, however, man
aged to keep control, and ran her on sand
bank. Boats were Immediately lowered,
and the whole company were saved with
the exception OF six men, and they were
drowned by the capsizing of a boat
The United States steamship Vandalia
was carried before the gale right upon the
reef. She struck with terrible shock,
hurting the Captain against gatling gun.
: He fell stunned, and before he could re-
cover a great wave swept the deck and
washed him and others away into the sea.
The vessel sank fifty yards from the Nipsic,
and several of the officers and men went
down with her. Others perished while
making desperate efforts to swim to the
shore. Some of the ships company tried
to save themselves by clinging to the rig
ging, but heavy and swift running waves
dashed over them, and one by one they
were swept away.
Many natives and Europeans had gath
cred on the shore, all anxious to render as
sistance to the unfortunate crews, but
owing to the darkness-night having come
on-they were wholly unable to be of any
service. Soon after the Vandalia had
sunk, the American war ship Trenton
broke from her anchorage and was driven
upon the wreck of the Vandalia, whence
she drifted to the shore. The bottom OF
the Trenton was completely stove in and
her hold half full of water
At morning the German man-of- war
Olga, which hitherto withstood the gale,
although much battered by the heavy seas
that constantly broke upon her, became
unmanageable and was driven upon the
beach, where she lay in tolerably favor
able position
The following is record of the officers
and men lost:
Eber-The Captain and all the other
officers except one, and seventy-six men.
Vandalia-The Captain, four officers and
forty men.
The Nipsic-Seven men.
The Adler-Altogether fifteen persons.
Mataafa sent number of his men TO the
assistance of the wrecked ships. They
rendered splendid aid in trying to float the
Olga.

Nothing Later from samoa.

WASHINGTON. March 31st.-The State
and Navy Departments have received moth
ing new from Samoa about the loss of the
three vessels. In fact nothing is expected
owing to its taking about two weeks time
for vessels to make the trip from Somoa to
Auckland, where we can get the first cable
comm munlcation. So news is liable TO ar
rive at any time whenever vessels go be-
tween those points. 1t is thought that
Secretary Tracy, on his return from New
York, may order the new cruisers, Chicago
and Boston, to Samoa, and perhaps the
Charleston, as soon as finished, thus giving
them chance for fair test.

occur regularly at the Tonga group. They

In April, 1850. and in January, 1870, the
islands were visited by terrific hurricanes
which destroyed the cocoanut, banana and
breadfruit crops, reducing the natives to
the verge Of starvation for several weeks.
These hurricanes are often accompanied
by earthquakes, which though alore do

by hurricane, work terrible injury. On

The news of the disaster created pro-

Everybody from the Secretary down freely
expressed regret. Secretary Tracy could
not see any cause to condemn any one.
The officers in command of the vessels were
competent men, and doubtless adopted all
proper. precautions against disaster, but
these hurricanes, which assume cyclonic
proportions, were simply irresistible, as was
proved by the extent of the loss of vessels.

could get hold of he seemed to think, ac-

A council was held in the new
Baptist meeting house lately erected
in Shrewsbury twp, ON Thursday
afternoon, Sept. 18th, to recognize
the new church organized there.
Rev. j. G.. Miles was moderator, and
Rev. Il. b. McDanel of Northumber-
land was clerk. Delegates from 19
churches in the Northumberland

After devotional exercises the stute-
ments concerning the organization
of the new church were made. A
preaching station has been main
tanned at Allegheny school house
for number of years. Ata series
of meetings held last winter num-
Der of additions were made to the

and the distance being so great, it
was thought best to organize new
church there. The council declared
itself satisfied with the statement,
and voted to recognize the new in
terest as regular Baptist church.
In the evening the recognition and
dedication services were held. Rev.
S. q. Reading of Williamsport,
preached the sermon. Rev. II. C..
Munro of Muncy, offered the prayer
of recognition. Rev. j. T. Judd of
Lewisburg, gave the hand of fellow
ship. Rev. j. G.. Miles of Allen
wood, gave the charge to the church.

The services concluded with the
benediction by Rev. A. b. Still of

The Republicans of Sullivan coun-
ty, through their delegates acted
most wisely, and judiciously in nom-
mating VIM. j. Lawrence of Du-
shore for Sheriff. Mr.. Lawrence is
native of Sullivan county, and has
passed all the years of his life among
us. While he is very modest and
retiring gentleman, who has not
made himself acquainted in portions
of the county remote from his resi-
dence, yet by his honesty, integrity,
and fair dealings with all, with
whom he has had dealings, he has
made himself hosts of friends.
He has resided the greater portion
of his life in Cherry and Dushore,
but for one or two years he resided
at this place. And we only speak
what we are entirely sure of and
know from personal association with
the people, when we say that he will
receive most fattering vote where
he is best known. Cherry, Colley,
Dushore, LaPorte, Davidson and
Shrewsbury will give him heavy
vote, enough we feel assured to put
his election beyond any doubt If the
rest of the county, or the portion
commonly known as the West will
only give him the full party vote.
Mr.. Lawrence is Republican
from principle, espoused the cause
of Republicanism when very young
man from his own convictions, con-
trary to his family teachings, and
while he has not taken an active
part in politics, and has been liberal
in his local political views, he has
been an earnest consistent Republi-
can on State and National politics.
We can conceive of no reason why
every Republican in the county
should not give him their honest and
earnest support; and if they will
we are willing to stake our word and
reputation as political prophet.
that he will be triumphantly elected
in November.
