WELL FED STRIKERS LIKE THE STRIKE.
They Live Better on Charity Than
They Did on Their Wages.
Tho Salvation Army Feed Eight
Thousand OF Them Daily.
Meanwhile London WhaVes are Re-
Stunning Their wonted Aspect.

LONDON. September 10.-Cardinal Man
ning's proposal which is being considered
by the council Of the strike committee, Is q
compromise to the effect that the terms
which the dock companies have already con-
ceded, are to 60 into operation on the first
OF November, provided the men Immediately
resume work. Burns, at q mass meeting
OF strikers today, asked the men whether
they would accept this proposal. The strlk-
ers unanimously opposed the proposition.
The persistence Of the strikers increases
with the swelling Of the tide of subscriptions
Home contributions are slightly falling, but
Australia continues to pour in funds. To-
day e1400 were received, making total from
Australia of e15,5O0 pounds. The church
relief activities are increasing and the re-
suit Is that many dockmen fare better In
idleness than when working Foremos.
among the agencies Of relief Is the Salvation
Army, which provides food for 5000 persons
daily at nominal price. Throughout the
strike districts, rents are largely In arrears.
Feeling no pinch Of distress, the temper Of
the dockmen is not toward compromise. In
the meantime, In spite Of the strikers pick
cts, the companies are gradually replenish-
ing their working force.
The congestion of river trade Is becoming
relieved by the wharfngers generally accept
Ing the mems terms. A number Of vessels
leaving the docks and going to the wharves
TO unload, the wharves present almost their
wonted busy aspect prior to the strike.

THE HORRORS OF THE INQUlSlTION
Recalled by the Story of peserters
From an American Whaler.
A Man Suspended In the Rigging and
Then Brutally Tortured,
While ShIpmate Endured Similar
cruelty In the Hold.

WASHINGTON, September 10.-Vice Con-
sui Newton, at st. Paul de Leondo, has
transmitted to the Fifth Auditor Of the
Treasury, the sworn statement Of two de-
serters, Manning and Green, who had ar
rived there, having run away from their
vessel, the d. A. Small, at Equiminis. They
were forwarded by American missionaries at
BeDgeala. The men, in their statement. tell
a story of shocking abuse at the hands of
Capt. Winslow. They say, in brief. that
they sailed on whaling cruise from Prov
incetown, Mass, September 81. 1888. Peter
Collins, green hand, died, as they say,
from Inflammation Of the kidneys, aggra-
Yated by neglect and want Of medicine. He
was ordered out of his bunk when hardly
able to move, and driven at the ropes end up
the masthead. Because Manning would not
agree to say that death resulted from disease
entirely, the captain put Manning in irons
and laid him across two casks IN the hold,
with his arms hanging downward, and an
iron blubber hook, weighing about ninety
pounds, attached to the manacles. He was
and suspended to the rigging by lanyard
passed around the shackle Of his manacles.
His feet, then two feet clear Of the deck,
were lashed together and hauled on, and lie
was stretched out in this position until he
foamed at the mouth and became insensible.
The men were not allowed to post letters, go
ashore or communicate with consul, nor
in eight months. 1t Is the intention of the
Fifth Auditor to take steps Immediately
looking to the prosecution Of the captain Of
the ship.

a Bad Break.

Shortly after 10 go'clock last night word
was received from Officers Sparrow, Phillips
and Hicks, that the Waterman on CONNER
cial street at the foot Of Franklin had burst.
Like all such breaks when first seen 1t was
small affair, the water merely bubbling up
from the ground. Soon, however, a caye-in
Of earth, cobble stones, curbing and side
walk occurred, and the aspect Of things
changed at once. A column Of water two
feet in diameter shot up into the air aiming
straight at Quinn & Co.'s sign, and breaking
their windows. The water company was no.
titled, but full hour elapsed before their
employees arrived on the scene to cut off the
escape of the Sebago. During all this hour
the two-foot stream continued to play away
at Quinn & Co.'s sign,:transforming the
northerly side Of Commercial street to with
In 90 feet Of the Custom House into broad
lake and damaging Quinn Il Co.'s establish
ment several hundred dollars worth. When
after the waters subsidized. an examination
could be made 1t was found that hole big
enough to hold horse-car had been blown
out Of the ground. This and the damage
done to Mr.. Quinn's shop constitutes the ac-
tual harm done by the young Niagara wnich
ragged for an hour, but that part OF CONNER
cial street was washed cleaner last nlgns
than 1t ever was before.

NEW YORK, September 1o.-The tide to-
night was so high that it inundated streets
aud cellars along the river fronts. Few small
crafts nentured out Of the docks. The
waves dashed high over the battery wall
and the ferry boats had difficulty in making
their landings. Numerous minor mishaps
occurred.
The Tribune has the following: 'The loss

trated all over the city, and telegraph lines
throughout the State are reported in very
bad shape. The damaging storm which has
prevailed along the Atlantic coast since Sun
day still continues, and rep orts received here
indicate that the damage to railroad lines
entering Atlantic City, Cape May, Sea Isle
City, Ocean City and other coast resorts Is
very great. The water in the old Camden &
ATLANTIC excursion house at Atlantic City is
four 0rlfive feet high, and in the meadows 1t
Is so high that it is difficult to calculate the
damage done to railroad property. The
latest reports state the heavy northeast wind
is growing heavier and with no sign of ces-
sation. Ocean City is almost entirely under
water.
On the Anglesea railroad it is reported that
three cars were turned over on their sides,
and that the passengers climbed out Of the
windows fortunately unhurt. Grave fears
are entertained for property at Atlantic City

The Veteran shlpbullders at East
DeerIng Launch Another Schooner.

Yesterday forenoon, at about three min
utes after IL o'clock, the Addie Charleson
was successfully launched from the shipyard
Of George Russell at East Deering. Mr..
Russell has been building vessels In this
yard for 25 years, and the Addie Charleson
Is not far from the fortieth that has gone
forth from his hands. Probably not one Of
all the list went down the ways more majes-
tically and smoothly than did the Charleson
yesterday. Before II o'clock her deck was
full Of people-men, women and children
who were ready to enjoy the perfectly safe,
but exciting natal voyage that vessel makes
from dry land to water. Few vessels have
been launched at the Deering yard with so
many people aboard as crowded the deck of
the Charleson yesterday. The vessel herself
was decorated with all the pomp possible on
a craft without masts. On the bow was the
Union Jack. In the place Of the foremast
was the private signal of ]. S. Winslow &
Co., the letter w. in blue on a white ground.
The burgee, white bordered with red and
blue, and bearing the name "Addie Charlie
son." was at the head of the mainmast.
while the Star Spangled Banner waved from
the future location of her mizzenmasts.
Just before II o'clock, Mr.. Henry p. Dew
ey, of the firm Of J. S. Winslow &c Co., gave
orders that the gang plank, connecting with
the yet unfinished schooner, be drawn in.
and a crowd of 800 people stood waiting ex-
pectantly for the tremble that tells that the
schooner is on the move. The tremble came
at 11.03. There was about a minute and
half when the people on board wanted to
hold their breath until the sliding was over;
and then she was in the water and Captain
Tucker was calling for three cheers from the
wheel box. The cheers were given, and
there were salutes also from Grand Trunk
freight engine and from the tug Plymouth.
The Plymouth hitched on to the Charleson
and started towing the Charleson around to
the wharf; while on board Captain and Mrs.
Charleson distributed the refreshments to the
friends who had been launched with them;
and while on the shore Master Builder Rus
sell relieved himself Of the big load of ankle
ty that is said to weigh on the shipbuilder's
mind almost as heavily at the fortieth launch
ing as at the first.
