A Death at Sea,

Especial to THE HERALD Examiner Dispatch
NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-On the evening OF
November 8, the Etruria sailed out of the
Mersey and encountered brisk gale as
soonoas the coast off Cork was cleared.
Tuesday night as the midnight bell rang
out, tons after tons of water swept over
the decks, and the wind increased to a
terrific velocity. Wednesday morning
dawned and still the storm ragged, then
death came riding on a fierce blast. Pat
rick Hayes, young Irishman, shortly
beford noon ventured up from the reeking
atmosphere of the steerage to obtain a
breath of pure air. He had just stepped
On deck when wave hurled him headlong
against the mooring butts. When the ship
righted herself and assistance came to him
he was dead, his arms and his legs were
broken and his neck dislocated by the aw-
full blow. Next morning at s o'clock the
last services for the dead were performed
by DR.. O'Reilly, of Detroit, treasurer Of
the Irish National league of America, and
the body of the young man was consigned
to the deep. Young Hayes, it appeared,
had practically run away from home. His
cousin was sailing for America on the
Etruria and just as the steamer was about
to cast off, Hayes came ON board and an
nounced that he was going too. His family
knew nothing of his intentions and the
first news they have will be that Of his
death

Trunk Line Presidents.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-The National
Wool Growers meeting organized to-day by
the reelection of Hon. Columbus Delano,
of Ohio, as president; G.. H. Wallace,
president of the Missouri Wool Growers
association, secretary. There was large
attendance. An informal discussion OF
the present condition and needs Of the
wool-growing industry showed the con-
census of opinion to be that while the rate
of!decrease, from 50, OOO,O 900 head of sheep
in 1888 to 100000 head in 1888 had been
arrested, no appreciable advance had yet
been made, A committee on reorganiza-
ton and resolutions was appointed.
This afternoon the members of the con-
vention called in body on Secretary
Window and Assistant Secretary Tichenor
Several Congressman from the western
states called at the convention to-day and
expressed themselves as thoroughly in
sympathy with the wool growers.

A PRINCELY PAUPER.
Bishop Spaulding Describes the Snag that
Prince Murat Ran Against.

Bishop Spaulding Describes the Snag that
Prince Murat Ran Against.
Especial to THE HERALD-EXaminer Dispatch. |
NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-Bishop Spaulding,
lately arrived in this city from London,
explains very fully just what sort of snag
Prince Murat ran up against in his at
tempt to capture an American heiress. 1t
seems the Prince was the victim Of very
far seeing fathers will. The amount Of
fered by Miss Caldwell, said the bishop
to-day, was the income of her own money
left to her by her mother and other rela-
tives than her father Mr.. Caldwell when
he died, made will providing that both the
principal and income of all the property
left by him to his daughters should be kept
beyond the control of any husbands to
whom they might be married.
rs the separation regarded as final one
by Miss Caldwell's friends?"
"That l cannot say. Miss Caldwell and
the Prince, though not what could be called
madly infatuated with each other, were
certainly very fond of each other, and it is
poe sible that the affair of settlement may
be overlooked and a marriage may yet take
place.

The New Cruisers as Coal Consumers

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9-The secretary of
the treasury day denied the current re-
port that the new naval cruisers are ex,
travagant ''coal consumers, ''and expressed
a desire to have the facts published. "The
representation that these vessels are
heavy consumers Of coal is based upon
their utmost consumption while under
forced draught. And" he continued, ''war
ships are seldom under forced draught, ex-
.cept on trial trips, when it is used to test
their utmost capacity for speed. They are
/ never again likely to be placed under
forced draught, except possibly in
the event of pursuit of or fight from an
enemy. l don't suppose that in the entire
life of warshlp she would be run under a
forced draught more than half dozen
times. AS a matter of fact the average con-
sumption of the new cruisers in making
their ordinary speed of from eight to ten
knots au hour is from twenty-five to
thirty tons per day of twenty-four hours.
AS an illustration the Boston on her last
cruise steamed 200 miles per day for
twenty-five days and consumed only
twenty-five tons of coal each day. This
shows the average consumption of these
vessels under ordinary conditions and is
the only proper test of their coal consump
tom
