This Steamer Lake Ontario Reported Gone
to the Bottom.
CHICAGO, May 31.-A dispatch from
Montreal says: 1t was rumored here last
light that a terrible steamship disaster
occurred in the gulf yesterday. The story
goes that the Beaver line steamer, Lake
Ontario, which left here on Wednesday for
Liverpool with full list of cabin passen-
gers, including many of the leading oiti-
Ems of this city, has gone down with all
hands. From the last reports of the ves-
sci received here, she should have been in
the neighborhood of Anticosti, and as it is
known that terrible storm has been
raging in the Gulf of st. Lawrence for the
last few days, the worst is feared.

Delivered Himself Up.

CHICAGO, May 31.-W.J MoGarriRle, ex-
warden of Cook county hospital, who has
been fugitive from justice under indict-
ment as one of the "boodlers" in the
county ring, living for some time In Bout,
b. O., walked into Judge Shepard's court
room shortly before noon to-day and de-
ivered himself up. He was at once taken
to the Office of the states attorney.
MoGarigle pleaded guilty to the charge
of conspiracy, and fine OF 81 900 was at
once imposed, and when it is paid he will
be free. When McGarigle fed to Canada
nearly two years ago he was under sem
tenoe of two yeare in the penitentiary,
but a petition for new trial was
pending in the courts. After his departure
the petitions for the new trial in his case
and that of Ed Mcdonald were denied.
McDonald's case went before the supreme
court and the decision of the lower court
was reversed. The action before Judge
Shepard this morning was simply the
grantiug of new and immediate trial to
McGarrigle and the imposing of fine on
his plea of guilty.
At the same time the states attorney
dismissed the case against Ed Mcdonald,
engineer of the asylum, who was convicted
for being concerned in crookedness with
McGarrigle.
The states attorney. says that as the su-
preme court had granted Mcdonald new
trial, that as he was convinced that he
could not again be convicted, and that as
he hsd been confined 10 the county jail
for year and half, the state was willing
to drop further proceedings. The orders

the man had talked with Sullivan, /

anxious about my rent and the perma-
nency of my tenant"
He is all right" said Mr.. Sullivan to
me. "He will pay you all right enough
when the month is up"
Mr.. Sullivan at first denied that he ever
saw the man.
The connection of the ice man,
Sullivan, with the Cronin mystery
and the cause of his arrest and detention
are here made plainly apparent.
Young Carlson was the next witness for
the state: ~ was present when the fur
niture was brought to the cottage-swo

He did not handle the goods.

driver and discovered he was Swede.
I spoke to him in that language, and he
told me that he had brought the furniture

III Clark street, where the furniture was
taken by A. Il. Revels company, is thus
verified.

LATEST PARTICULARS.
PHILADELPHIA, May 81 ALI the wires
OF the Pennsylvania railroad west of Will
mere station on the Pittsburg division,
twenty-five miles west of Altoona, have been
down since 8 a. M, and oonseq uently, in
formation in regard to the break west of
that place is very meagre. Enough has
been learned, however to indicate that the
rush of water is the worst ever known in
that section.
At 1880 tonight dispatch was re-
celved by General Manager Pugh, dated
Wilmere, from the conductor of the east
bound New York and Chicago limited,
which left Pittsburg at o'clock this
morning, saying the train was safe and
that all were on board. Mr.. Pugh inferred
from this the limited was laid up some
where near Lilly. The conductor re-
ported that the bridge at South Fork was
washed away, and expressed the opinion
that all the bridges between South Fork
and Johnstown would be swept away.
When Mr.. Pugh was shown copy OF the
Associated Press dispatch fir m Pi I II urg
announcing the breaking of the dam at
Johnstown, he said that this report con-
firIned a dispatch received from Wilmere
tonight which stated that man had re-
ported to the Pennsy lvania railroad op
orator { acre that the uih Fork dam had
broken and the water had carr Cd away the
'ooal tipple" and telegraph tower at South
Fork station and also portion of an east
bound freight train. The telegraph
operator, who was in the tower, managed
to escape, but several of the trainmen are
reported to have been drowned.

discovery of the post norton
examination was that the skull in no
place was fractured this conf lecture does
not appear reasonable. The tools to-day
discovered are understood to have been
hidden partially under, round and in a
rubbish heap in an out room or shed ad-
joining the cottage. The greatest impor
tance is attached to this report, as it is
construed into evidence of Sullivan's COM
plici'y in the murder.
The statement will be printed to-mor-
row that Alex. Sullivan has engaged A. s.
Trude as counsel, and that within the last
three days the two have held several long
conferences.
"What about your retention by Alex.
SulllvanH" was asked of Mr.. Trude to-
day.
81 have known Alexander since he was a
reporter, and have been consulted by
him. He knows about this Cronin affair.
He did not believe he was dead, but
thought he had disappeared for the pur-
pose of affecting result in the Philadel
phia convention. This is question of
tail pulling" continued the attorney.
"You see every Irishman is trying to
twist the British lions tail, and in their
ardor they get jealous and jump on each
other. In the Philadelphia convention
the greatest Irish intellects in the country
FLASHED. There was never an Irish con-
vention in the United States in which
there were such intrigues and such bit
ter contest. Alex. Sullivan came out on
top, electing Henry Sheridan a delegate.
That victory made Sullivan mark for the
jealousy of every prominent Irishman who
did not belong to his party. WI. Hynes,
of Chicago, used to befriend Sullivan. He
and Judge Moran defended him in the
Hanford case, but the Philadelphia vioto-
ry cost Sullivan Hynes' friendship. This
thing is seized upon by his enemies to
ruin him, but there will be a reaction"
In talking of the alleged diversion of
the fund of the Clan-na-Gael or United
Brotherhood Mr.. Trude said:
"That has been explained dozen
times, and in five minutes any impartial
man can understand that Mr.. Sullivan has
been as clean from misdoing as sun
beam. Mr.. Sullivan was seen this evening
and he said that he had not formally re-
tanned Mr.. Trude but lad oounseled with
him as friend.
