OFF for Samoa.

SAN FRANCISCO, January 2O.-At A
O'Clock this afternoon the United States
man-of-war Vandalia left Mare Island
navy yard, in this harbor, bound for the
Samoan islands, the present seat of war
like disturbances.
As heavy fog hung over San Fran
cisco bay and the entrance thereto to-
day, the United States man-of-war Van
dalia, after reaching this city from Mare
Island navy yard this evening, anchored
here for the night. 1t is understood she
will leave for Samoa early tomorrow.
Following is the list Of the officers in
command of the Vandalia: Command
ing officer, Captain Schoonmaker Lieu
tenants, James Carlin, J. @. Wilson,
Culver, Ripley and Gibbon; Sur
geon, DR.. Harney; Assistant Sur
geon, DIR. Codiera; Paymaster, Frank
H. Armer; Chief Engineer, A.
L. Green; First Assistant, H.
Webster. There are, besides the
crew, three middies and thirty-five ma
rines, with Lieutenant Sutton in COM
mand of the latter. 1t is expected the
Vandalia will reach Samoa on March 5th
or 9th. The man-of-war is to stop al
Honolulu and there take on coal. Homo.
lulu is to be reached as quickly
as desirable, which means, it is said, in
about twelve days. All the coal needed
can be used between here and Honolulu
but as the United States coaling sta
tion at Samoa is nearly exhausted, it il
said, fuel will have to be more carefully
consumed after leaving Honolulu, anC
consequently slow time will be made
The Vandalia will stay at Honolulu three
or four DAYS.

AN INFNUMAN DEED.
A Young Ftend for whom Ly ching
Is Much Too Good.

ST. LOUIS, January 20-A Republican
Brookfield, Mo-, special says: At l
O'Clock last night the house of Mrs. Min
ME Hall, a young widow with four chill
dren, four miles south of here, was
burned and when the neighbors gathered
there they found the charred remains OF
its five occupants. The Oldest child was
9 years and the youngest about 2. There
being fresh snow on the ground it was
discovered that hay had been brought and
placed under the house and fire set to
it, The tracks of mans feet were seen
leading towards the city and four men
followed with team, which resulted in a
ing arrested early this morning by
possession an unloaded revolver. The
accused is cousin of the woman who
was burned to death. Public opinions
inclines to the theory that, after crimi
nal operation, from which the woman
died, Howell shot the four children and
set fire to the house to cover his
crime. He had for some time been
spending his Saturdays and Sundays
with the murdered family. There is
great excitement among the farmers and
several from the neighborhood have
been around the Jail to-day. The pris-
oner is "a years old. He says he is inno-
cent and knows nothing about the crime.
He is very cool, and not at all nervous.
Tonight the Jail is well guarded to pre-
vent mob violence. The five bodies were
burned beyond recognition, and were
put into box altogether. Evidence Of
a criminal operation were seen in a ves-
sci which had not been destroyed by the
fire.

sr. LOUIS, January 20.-From Boiler,
in Mercer county, Missouri, comes the
following story of deplorable tragedy
Henry Thomas, an old farmer, has four
grown daughters named Hattie, Mar
garet, Nancy and Jane, aged 16, IS, 20
and 90 years respectively. Last Wednes-
day night Samuel and Charles Has
burn, brothers, procured ladder and
helped Margaret and Jane out of
the second.story window of their
fathers house, and, as they were
about to elope with the girls, the old man
appeared on the scene, but too late to
prevent their escape. He at once pro.
cured horse he had and shotgun and
started in pursuit. When about twelve
miles from home he overlook the fleeing
party. He Immediately opened fire on
them, killing both boys and fatally wound
ing Margaret. After getting nearly home
with the girls he was told that the other
two, Hattie and Nancy, had also eloped
with Ned Greason and Thomas Allison.
He at once left the girls he
had with him in the charge of
some neighbors and started after
the others. After securing the other two
girls without any serious trouble he
started back, but when about two miles
from home a mob took possession of him
and strung him up to tree. The old
man was terribly strict with the girls.
He would hardly let them out Of his
sight. Hence the elopement. He always
Dragged that he would not be bothered
with lazy sons-in-aw Public feeling is
strongly in favor of the lynching. Mar
yaret died last night.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
EVANSVILLE, Ind, January 20.-The
officers of the steamer Dawes, which
arrived here this evening, report a
disastrous wreck on the Louisville, st.
Louis and Texas railway bridge across
Green river, at Spottsville, KY,
eighteen miles above this city, in which
five men were drowned and several
fatally injured. There are no telegraphic
or telephone communications from that
point, but the facts, as near as could be
ascertained, are as follows:
Last Thursday the Louisville, st. Louis
and Texas Railroad Company were
granted an injunction by the Circuit
Court of Henderson county against the
Keystone Bridge Company from interfer-
ing with the plaintiffs trains running
over the bridge. The order, il seems,
was obeyed until this morning, when the
bridge company sent force to the
bridge, driving the railroad employees
off and at once commenced tearing
up the track and portion of the ties
from the draw of the bridge. About half
past O'Clock this afternoon, while the
work of tearing up the ties was in pro-
gress the dismantling of one of the draws
caused the opposite end to overbalance,
when it broke in two, precipitating about
twenty workmen into the river, five of
whom are known to have been drowned,
and several seriously, if not fatally in

BERLIN, January 2O.-The preamble to
the East Africa bill says: German col
onial principles do not allow the govern
ment to indemnify Germans for losses in
other countries nor to help private enter
prise to successful issue. In the sphere
of economics, the Intervention of the
Empire can, as "a rule, only
be used against other powers.
The opposition Of savage natives
and other natural obstacles must be
dealt with by the colonies. Neither is it
consistent with the German policy to in
tervene and establish State institutions
among barbarous people, but by her
Congo acts Germany has bound herself
to assist in the work of civilizing Africa,
to which is added the suppression of the
hunting and expectation of slaves. The
East Africa Company is too weak to dc.
fend itself against the attacks of the slave
traders and must be supported by the
Empire"

but for the fact that he is railroad man.
