THE NIPSICS OLD COMMANDER.

DENVER, Col, July 23.-Commander d.

manded the United States steamship Nip
sic, which was the only American gun-boat
not wrecked in Samoa, passed through this
city this evening on his way to Annapolis,
where he goes in response to orders from
the Navy Department. Commander Mullan
is the officer who compelled the Germans
to lower colors in the harbor of
Apla. He. left that port June p,
aud arrived in San Francisco July 9. He
Is plain, blunt man, of robust physique.
wears full beard, cropped close. and is a
most interesting and ready talker.
In response to question as to how he
happened TO be away from the Nipsic.
which Is either at Samoa. or en- route to
Auckland. he said: Il left Apia for Auck-
land May 9, under convoy of the Alert. but
after going 250 miles. which took SIX days
time, L decided that the lives of 2OO
men on board would be imperiled in
the event of storm, so unsea-
worthy was the Nipsic, so l ordered them
to return TO Apia. My decision was reached
after consultation with officers of the Alert.
The Nlpslcs rudder was gone, she was un-
manageable, her coal supply looked insult
fcient, and If we had encountered rough
weather we could not have lowered our
own boats, and the Alert could not have
saved the men. AT Apia Admiral Kimberly
disapproved of my action. and requested
to be relieved OF my command NV REQUEST
was granted, and am now on nv way to
Annapolis under orders"

JACK THE RIPPER.

Frank Ruffell's Description Of the Appear
ance Of the Whitechapel Fiend.
Cable Special to New York Herald.
Curiously enough an accurate description
of the Ripper has never been published
He'was seen by two persons who know him
as the Ripper. and the information given
by these to the police. The latter have
kept it secret until to-day, when it was Sc
cured by the writer from one of the pair.
The Ripper's first botched job was accom-
plished Nov. 21, at No. 10 George street,
Whitechapel. There he attempted to mur-
der Dark Sarah, but he only succeeded in
cutting her throat, as the woman was un-
usually strong. Dark Sarah met him at q
public house. and remembers him. She
was kept out of sight by the police until
the case was overshadowed by the Ripper's
successful efforts at murder. Where she
now is is not known. The other person
who saw the Ripper is Frank Ruffell, the
level-headed young man of twenty-five.
His identity is closely concealed by the po-
lice. Ruffell said to-day:

place at 10 George street. was out with the

PIG-IRON PRODUCTION.
Figures Showing Production for Six Months
of the Year and the Stocks Unsold.

PHILADELPHIA, July 23.-The American
Iron and Steel Association has received
from the manufacturers complete statistics
the United States in the first six months of
the present year; also, complete statistics
of the stocks of unsold pig Iron in the hands
of manufacturers or their agents on the
5Oth day of June last, and of the number of
furnaces in blast and out of blast at that
date. date The production of pig
ceding six months in the history of the
American iron trade. The stocks Of unsold
plg-iron on the 30th of June last were much
larger than at the close of any preceding
semi-annual period for number of years.
The total production of pig-iron in the
United States in the first six months of
1889 amounted to 4,107, 500 net tons of 1000
pounds. or 3,667,767 gross tons of 2.24O
pounds. Our production in the last six
months of 1888 was 3,SS6,O04 net tons. or
3.469 GAG gross tons. The production in the
first half of 1889 was 19s, 12l gross tons more
than in the second half of 1885, The in
creased production OF pig-iron in the
first half of 1889 was wholly in
general foundry and mill purposes. There
was decrease in the production of besse-
mer pig-lrOn. Nearly all the leading pig
iron producing States increased their pro-
duction in the first half of 1889 as compared
with the last half of 1885, The following
States show an increase: Connecticut New
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia,
Alabama, West Virginia, Tennessee, Ohio,
Wisconsin, Missouri, Oregon and Washing
ton Territory. The following States show
a decrease: Maine, Massachusetts,, Mary
land. North Carolina, Georgia. Texas, Ken
tucky. Indiana, Illinois. Michigan and
Colorado.
The production of pig in the Southern
States in the first half of 1889 was much
larger than in the last half of 1885, but for
this gain Alabama is entitled to most credit.
Among the Northern States which have
made progress in the first half of 1889 New
York, New Jersey and Ohio are more con-
spicuOus, each State making decided gain.
1t is also noteworthy that Pennsylvania
gained largely upon her production in the
second half of 1883. The decrease in the
production of Illinois was only nominal
The stocks of pig-iron which were unsold
in the hands of manufacturers or their
agents on the 30th of June last and which
were not intended for the consumption of
the manufacturers. amounted to 502. 9S4 gross
tons against 3OO, IA gross tons ON the 3lst of
December last, an increase of 2G2. $50 gross
tons in six months. The exact number of
furnaces which were in blast on the 30th os
June last was 2SS, and the number out of
blast was 293; total, 5S1.

SULLIVAN'S WINNINGS.
The Big Pugilist Receives His Stake Money
and Proceeds to Put 1t in Circulation.

NEW YORK, July 23.-John l.. Sullivan
came into possession of $4,000 this after
noon. 1t was the stake money in the Sulli-
van-Kilrain fight, and was paid over by
stakeholder AL Cridge. at his establishment
in West Twenty-eighth street. Cridge tel
egraphed from Long Branch last night that
he would like to meet John l.. and his back
ers to-day. 1t was o'clock this afternoon
when Sullivan and party arrived at
Cridge's. He was accompanied by Messrs.
Lumley. Johnston and Wakely. Cridgs
said to him: John, you are the champion
of the world. and am ready to pay over
the money you have won. Here it is" said
Cridge, as he made dive into an inside
vest pocket. from which he drew forth roll
of bills. There were just forty of them, of
the denomination of $500 each. Sullivan
took the greenbacks, sat down at table,
counted them over very carefully twice,
and then, showing the wealth into his
pocket, thanked Cridge for accepting the
Office of stakeholder and for taking such
good care of the money. The fighter then
invited alk hands to drink his health in
bumpers of champagne. Stakeholder Cridge
then said the $4,000 in cash was not all he
had to dispose of. He then produced the
Police Gazette championship belt. Accord
ing to the stipulatiOns of Mr.. Richard X.
Fol-, the donor of tho belt, as Mr.. Cridge
given for its safety before he wonId
surrender it. Sullivan insisted that
the belt went with the money,
and demanded it on the spot. Matters
were smoothed over by Wakely giving the
and belt in his possession, Sullivan and
party left Cridges to celebrate the event.
The first place visited was Middleton's sa-
loon, on Broadway. where Sullivan broke
his first $500 bill, and cracked many bottles

lemon. From Middleton's the sports went
to Jim Wakely's. resort, where moro wine
was opened. When the wine gives out,
Sullivan will go over to Brooklyn and visit
Charlie Johnston. Johnston has the belt,
which Sullivan contemptuously calls the
dog collar, and will have it on exhibition.
Sullivan says he will take all the stones
ont of the belt. distribute them among his
friends, and then melt the collar into a
solid mass. He will have tag attached
the dog-collar won by John /. Sullivan, in
his fight with Jake Kllrain, Rlchburg,
Miss, July s. 1882"
Sullivan. flushed with his recent victory,
is anxious for fresh laurels in the pugilistic
world. Mr.. Lumley said. this afternoon,
of Jem Smith, England's champion, and
would present him with $500 if he would
come to America and fight him, Marquis of
Queensbury rules, before the California
Athletic Club.
The $50, 600 stake money is not all Sulli-
vans. Half of it goes to him. The balance
will be divided among his hackers as fol-
lows: Half to the New York Illustrated
News, one quarter to Jim Wakely. one
quarter to Charles Johnston. 1t is said in
this ratio the hackers will present to Billy
Muldoon $4,000. Sullivan also intends to
give his trainer two of those $500 bills.
