the Atlantic.
New YORK, March 27th.-The steamer
Colorado, which arrived to-day, reports
that when $50 miles south of New York
she found steamers small life-raft with
two dead men. There were no signs of
violence. The name of the raft-builder
was found painted Jonathan Cone, Will
mington. Del" The raft was damaged
somewhat, and was sunk. on one side. A
card with the name of a grocer of Havre
was found in one mans pocket, but is lest.
The crew and passengers viewed the
bodies, which were not identified, and were
buried at sea.
The officers of the Colorado think the
raft belonged to the Conserva, the Domin-
lean Consuls man of-war, which sailed on
Tuesday, bound for Samoa One of the
dead men looked like Malay. The crew
of the Conserva were Malays.

MATTHEWS, SUCCESSOR.
Gresham, Woods and Attorney General
Miller Spoken of.

Gresham, Woods and Attorney-Gsneral
Miller Spoken OF.
WASHINGTON, March 24th.-It is consid-
cred doubtful by persons familiar with the
Indianapolites and the relations that exist
between President Harrison and Judge
Gresham whether the latter will be selected
to fill the vacancy on the Supreme Bench.
Judge Woods of the United States District
Court is named as likely to succeed the late
Justice Matthews. Judge Woods is an In
diana man, and holds Court at Indianapo-
lis. His selection for the Supreme Bench
would enable the President to appoint his
junior law partner and personal friend, Mr..
Elam OF, Indianapolis, United States Dis
trict Judge.
The same thing could be done by the
elevation of Judge Gresham to the Supreme
Bench, as Judge Woods could be made Cir
cult Judge, thus leaving vacancy in the
District Court for Mr.. Elan.
There is some talk about Attorney.Gen-
eral Miller being appointed. There will
not be any severance of their present Off
cial relations. A law firm whose three
members filled the offices of President
United States Attorney General and Dis
trict Judge might be called exceptional in
achieving distinction.

A Mans Carelessness Causes the Death
of His Wife and Daughter.

of His Wife and Daughter.
PERU Qnd.), March 24th.-An explosion
of dynamite occurred last evening in the
residence of Aaron York, 3 prominent
farmer living five miles east of this city,
completely demolishing the building and
causing the death of Mrs. York and her eld-
est daughter. Another daughter and a son
were severely but not fatally injured.
Preparatory to Mondays work in blast
ing stumps, York placed number of
frozen sticks of dynamite under the kitchen
stove to thaw out, and then went to the
stable to attend TO his horses. Shortly
atterward the explosion occurred, and when
he turned to learn whence the report came
he saw his house shattered to atoms, pieces
of wood and stone beirg hurled great dis
tances away.
1t was some time before the mangled
bodies of his wife and eldest daughter were
found. The former was an unrecognizable
mass of flesh. The girl bad evidently been
killed by the weight of debris. under a
great mass of which her body was found.

California Stands in the Way of the Pro-
posed Fruit Trust.

New YORK, March 24th.-A member of
one of the largest fruit firms in this city
says of the Florida fruit trust: The in
PRODUCTION of California fruit on a large
scale bids fair to dethrone the Florida
article, and growers of the latter will have
to bestir themselves if they wish to retain
their hold on the markets. Such mo-
nopoly as the one proposed might have
been feasible a few years ago, but there is
too much fruit in California and Florida
nowadays for any trust TO handle, even If
it should include 100 of the largest houses r.

Alleged Fear of American snibusters in
British America.


OTTAWA, March 24th.-Fears are ex-
pressed that a filibustering expedition from
the United States may seize the undevel-
oped territory in the great Mckenzie river
region, and Girard in the Senate called the
attention of the Government to the de-
fenseless condition of that vast and enor-
mously valuable region. He says that fifty
armed and resoluie men with supplies and
ammunition would be sufficient to hold
the country against any force that could be
sent against them under existing condi-
tions, owing to the difficulty of moving
troops and provisions into that region.
The Government promised to give the
matter immediate attention. Justices for
the place are soon to be appointed, emigra-
ton sent in that direction and surveyors
set to work on railways projected from the
present settlements toward the great Mac
Kenzie basin.

The Solicitor for Parnen Flatly Contra
diets Sir Webster.
LONDON, March 24th-Lewis, solicitor
for the Parnellites, calls attention to the
amazing and important misstatement with
reference to Pigott. which was made by
Attorney General Webster in the Com
mons on Friday last. He says that the let
ter referred to by Webster as having been
placed in Sir Charles Rnssell's hands five
days before Pigott's appearance in the wit
ness s-box was letter from Soames, solic-
itor for the Times, to Pigott, and that two
other letters from Pigott to Soames-in
which Pigott admitted that he feared to
undergo q cross s-examination-were with
held by the Times lawyer
Lewis says it is a faci that neither the
counsel nor solicitor for the Parnellites had
notice of the existence of these two letters
until Pigott had decamped.
WEBSTER saRsaoNDs
LONDON, March 2tth.-Attorney-G General
Webster replying to Lewis, writes that he
believes that he handed to Sir Charles Rus
sell the letters to which Lewis refers, but
that he will have to refer to his shorthand
notes for confirmation. In any case, he
says the matter is not important, because
none of the letters would have justified
the withdrawal Of Pigott from the witness
box; and further, Sir Charles Russell
elected not to have the letters read until
Pigott was in the boz.
