WRECKED BYITs TREAsURER
The Douglas Axe Company Forced
to Make an Assignment.

BosToN. Sept 6-The Douglas Axe Manu-
featuring company, office 274 Purchase
street, Boston, and factory at Douglas. Mass,
has placed its affairs in the hauds of Moor
field Storey. This action is due to the dis
covery that the treasurer, Denison Dana, is
missing, and that the accounts of the COM
pany are in a bad condition. Mr.. Danas alb
sence was discovered yesterday while the d.
rectors of the company were waiting for the
opening at a meeting OF the board. hasty
examination of the accounts was made,
and they were found to be in a
very bad state. A. T. Perkins, the
president OF the company. said: "Bir.
Dana has been in the employ of the company
from boyhood and we have not had occasion
to suspect him. The company has been
going along successfully for about fifty years
and its prosperity has been great" When
asked if he could give any idea of the present
liabilities or condition of the company, Mr..
Perkins replied: mo, we have not been
able to approach anything like a definite
view Of the results But we know that they
must be bad judging by Mr.. Dana's accounts
that we have examined thus far" Mr.. Storey.
upon being interviewed, acknowledged that
a petition in insolvency would be filed to-
and manager for the company for the past
thirty years, seems to have absconded with
large sum of money. The liabilities of the
company are chiefly TO banks
Dana is supposed to be in Canada. 1t is
said the liabilities will exceed $500, 600, but
it is hoped will not reach Sl,OOO,OUO The
deficit in Dana's accounts extend over sew
eral years though the accounts were audited
regularly Dana received salary of ST, ,040
to s., 900 year, and lived in good style, but
he was not known to have bad habits. He
is deacon in the Congregational church at
Brooklyn, and teacher in Sunday school.
He has a wife and five children. He raised
$1,000 before leaving.

THE EXTRA SESSION.

The statement is published that the
president will take the sense of his cab
met to-day upon the question that has
been agitating his mind for months, the
eXpediency of calling special session
of congress. As the conclusion will be
dictated by party circumstances, there
will be little hazard in predicting that
there will be no special session. The
Louisiana district did not return a Re-
publican this week, nor have either of
the vacancies been filled in that way. A
Republican is dead in Nebraska and an
other is dangerously ill in New York.
A few others are not feeling quite right
in body or mind. Then there are some
chances in the new states. On the
whole, the public exigency demanding
an early session will not seem to wear
an importunate aspect to the cabinet to-
day.

HE TELLS HIS STORY.
The Slayer of Judge Terry Testi-
fieS in His Own Behalf

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 6.-Deputy Marshal
David Nagle was examined in the federal
court to-day and related the details of the
tragedy in. the Lathrop dining room last
month. He said that when Judge Terry ap
preached Justice Field he had no idea he
was going to make an attack. but before he
could interfere Terry slapped the justice on
the face with his right hand, and repeated
the blow with his eft hand, striking the jus
tice second time on the back OF the head.
He continued:
II was on my feet in an instant, and throw
ing out my right hand to keep Terry off,
shouted: Stop that; | am United States
officer Terry then directed his attention
to me. He had his right arm in position as If
about to deliver another blow, and as he
turned his glance upo3 me he looked like au
infuriated beast His clencned fist immedl-
ately sought his bosom. Believing my life
was in danger, Immediately drew my pistol
with my left hand, and catching 1t with my
right, fred two shots in quick succession, and
Terry fell to the floor. believe Terry would
have cut me to pieces, and perhaps Justice
Field if l had not acted promptly. He looked
like maddened giant. knew he had always
carried a knife. and believed he had one on
him then. / knew him to be giant In
strength, and proposed to take no chances
with him. For that reason held my pistol in
both hands SO that he could not take it away
from me- After the shooting was over and l
had got Justice Field on the train again |
for did not like to injure a woman, but
would surely protect Justice Field"
Nagles examination concluded the tesd-
mony, and the case was continued until next
Wednesday, when the question of the juris-
diction of the federal court will be argued.

LESSONS IN THRIFT.

That notable recent case in Madrid
shows that enterprise and thrift in mu-
nicipal bodies are not confined to this
country. In fact, those Spanish officials
could give lessons to the average Amer
lean alderman. Boss TWEED, it is re-
membered, when he had occasion to find
new abode. went to Spain; but it is
not remembered that he gave instruc-
tiOn there. Still, there seem to be rivals
of his fame there. They were men Of
positive genius if they could steal
twenty millions in four years without
annoyance. But their opportunities
were exceptional The revenues of the
city are chiefly derived from duties on
goods imported, and the mayor and
thirty aldermen became heavy import
ers and didn't pay any duties. They
did an enormous business. in fact, and
all found rich rewards for their enter
prise. They are not likely to be perse-
cuted as TWEED was. and, perhaps, will
not even take tours to this country or
Canada.

HOW HE MET eva"
Robert Ray Hamilton Tells flow
He Was Duped.

NEW YORK, Sept 6.-Robert Ray Hamil-
ton, Mrs. SWinton, Joshua Mann. Inspector
Byrnes and two or three midwives were
present in the Tombs police court to-day to-
gether with large crowd of spectators
when the Hamilton blackmail case came up.
Mr. Hamilton made an affidavitt charging ex-
tortion and described how he had met
Eva in a house in this city; how
she had worked on his sympathies; how
he had given her larger and larger sums;
how she had finally written him from Elmira
that she was about to become a mother; how
the babe was afterwards exhibited to him for
his admiration, and how he was then induced
to marry the woman. Counsel for Mrs. Swim
ton and Mann examined Hamilton and
brought out the fact that any sums he had
given them were voluntarily and cheer
fully given. Inspector Byrnes testified
to the fact of the baby being procured
and to Mann's relations with Eva. A letter
from Mrs. Hamilton to Inspector Byrnes was
produced, in which Mrs. Hamilton offers to
tell the whole story if Hamilton will come to
her She says she was more sinned against
than SHINING. and conveys the idea that Mrs
SWinton and Mann used her as a cats-paw.
A motion to dismiss the proceedings was de-
MED. The hearing will be continued to- NOR
row. The specific charge made by Hamilton
is that Mrs. Swinton, Joshua Mann and Eva
Mann by falsely representing that Hamilton
was the father of the child, obtained from
him q check for $500.

AFRAID OF COMPETITION.
The Union Pacific Will GObble the
Pacific Short Line.

Sioux CITY, To-, Sept. GA story that is
causing much talk in railroad circles, and
which is said to have been received from
trustworthy source, was published here this
afternoon. 1t is to the effect that the Union
Pacific has made three propositions to the
projectors and builders of the Pacific Short
line to buy the road as soon as it is COM
pleted to Ogden. The reasons for this move
are many. The advent of the new road di-
vides the territory hitherto monopoliZed by
the Union Pacific. thus making serious in
roads into its earnings. The bonded debt of
the Union Pacific, with accrued interests,
amounts to nearly $4,000 per mile, while
the cost of building the snort line is but S20,-
600. The Union Pacific would much prefer
to operat, the new and more direct route and
abandon the old line to the government. A
local director of the short line said it was
true that the Union Pacific had made over
lures to the new company but no decision
has yet been arrived at. He said, however,
that the chances were in favor of the Union
Pacific taking the road.

PACIFIC ISLANDS ANNEXED.
England Keeps on Adding to Her
Colonial Possessions.

SAN Francisco, Sept. 6.-Advices from
Honolulu by the steamer Australia to-day
state that the British man-of-war Espeigle
returned there Aug. %, after the absence of
a month. She had visited Humphreys
island and Rierson island and annexed both
of them to the British dominions. The
islands are twenty miles apart. and are sup
posed to be on the route of one of the pro-
iected trans-Paeifc cables. While at Hum
phrey's island the Espeigle took on board
twenty men of the British ship Garston from
Sydney to San Francisco, which was wrecked
near Starbuck island July IL. The ship went
aground during the night and was aban-
doned The officers and crew, in three boats,
kept near the ship for day or two, but find
ing she could not be saved they attempted to
go ashore, but could find no place where 1t
was possible to land. The boat containing
Capt Pye and eight of the crew was lost sight
of, and has not been seen since. The re-
mainder of the men entered one boat and
kept in southerly direction for ten days,
when they reached Humphreys island in an
exhausted condition.

LEARNING TRADES.

The lockout of the glass blowers of
the establishments in Southern New
Jersey and Brooklyn throws some 5000
persons out of employment, and threat
ems trouble of larger proportions. The
difficulty is not directly or chiefly over
wages, but the employment of appren-
tiees. Heretofore two apprentices have
been allowed to each furnace. and the
men insist upon a reduction of One-half.
They claim that when boy has been at
the work two or three years he can do
about as well as jOurneyman, and has
but half the pay. This is one of the
higher-prieed trades, the wages of the
men ranging from s. to S. day, ac-
cordlng to their skill and the character
of the work. 1t is human nature that
the men should wish to keep the
supply of competent workmen so
limited as to Obviate any danger
of reduction of wages. The employers,
on the other hand, insist that they have
rights in the matter, and should be al
lowed to employ as many apprentices
as they see fit. 1t is insisted that
the narrow policy is unjust to the boys,
as it shuts them out from a chance to
learn the trade as means of subsist-
ence. They allege that when the trade
is brisk foreigners are imported to aid
the blowers, and the native boys are
crowded out. This involves an i'm
portant principle that is by 10 means
confined in its practical form to the
glass blowers. 1t is found a difficult
question to deal with, and calls for the
exercise of wise discretion. If the boys
are not allowed to learn trades. what
are they to do? They may become
tramps or highwaymen, it is true,
but those callingS are becoming
crowded, and many of the boys do not
take to such directions. If the shops
are shut in their faces, schools will be
established to teach them industrial
arts.

Not Single Juror Secured in the
Cronin Case as Yet.

CHICAGO, Sept. 6.-Twenty-four talesmel
were examined to-day in the Cronin trial.
All but one were excused. The exception
was Henry Thayer, who. with the two passed
temporarily yesterday, was held over for the
night. Only three peremptory challenges
were used during the day Two OF these
are credited to the defense, thus increasing
the number to twenty-five. Just before the
court adjourned for the day States Attorney
Longenecker peremptorily challenged Free
man Cross, who was passed by the state and
the defense, and who, it was popularity be-
lieved, would be juryman in the celebrated
case. The attorneys for the defense stren-
uously objected TO the challenging of the
juror, but Judge Mcconnell decided that the
peremptory challenge in this case was based
on good grounds, which would be privately
communicated to the attorneys for the de-
fense, and that he would sustain it.

WAR SHIPS CONDEMNED.
The Quinnebaug and Juniata to
Be Taken Out of Commission.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-The United States
navy is to lose two of its vessels. Reports
from the boards appointed to inspect the
Quinnebaug and the Junata have been re-
ceived at the navy department, and they
state that the vessels cannot be repaired for
active service within the limit of 20 per cent
of their cost, as prescribed by law They will

sale published. The Juniata was the first
vessel built for the United States navy during
the war. She has an excellent record, and is
now lying at Portsmouth, n. Fl. The Quin-
nebaug was built twelve years ago, and sent
Immediately after completion to the Eu-
ropean station. where she remained in con-
stant service, without returning to the United
States, until few months ago. During her
European commission she was not repaired
to any extent, and consequently she returned
in badly damaged condition. She is now

FOR sULLIvAN's SERVICES.
Mississippians Will Bid High for
the Champion SIugger.

PURvIs, Miss, Sept. 6.-The statement that
c. ". Rich. of Richburg, had leased county
prisoners of Marion county and would have
charge Of Sullivan and Kilrain, is mistake.
The county clerk says that no such contract
exists between the county and Rich.
and before the board of supervisors can
lease the prisoners to any one. bids
will have to be advertised for in this
county as prescribed by law There are
other citizens among them-mill owners
charcoal contractors and dfarmers-who would
like to lease county prisoners and If bids
are advertised for Rich will not have it all
his own way. The efforts of Sullivan and
his friends to secure miscarriage of the SEN
tence have had the effect Of turning citizens
against him who were at first only
in favor Of a fine. They are now
determined that the sentence shall
be carried out. and in the event of
the slugger being leased out, the farmers will
do some bidding. One Of them said to-day
that he could afford to pay as much for lease
as any one, and if he secured the contract
the Beanville slugger and the heavy hitter
from Baltimore would have to drive mule
and stand his hand at plowing. The char
coal contractors are also tickled at the
chance of hiring the champion to propel
wheelbarrow and the lumbermen are anx-
ious to try the big fellows skill at loading
cars. There will be lively music when Rich
makes al attempt to secure the lease.

Although CLAIMS are getting scarce, and the

valuable than ever. The largest and by far
the most valuable pearl in Wisconsin was
found yesterday. New York buyer offered
S3, 500 for it, but his figure was considered
too low. Hundreds of small pearls are found
and sold daily. The purchasers are agents of
Chicago, New York and Paris houses. Visi-
tors and clam hunters are pouring into the
