An Appeal for nIrehnll.

LONDON, Ont, Oct. 16.-A number Of
sympathizers Of Birchall, the murderer
awaiting execution at Woodstock, who be-
lieve he was not altogether fairly dealt
with, have prepared petition to be pre-
sented TO the governor general in his be-
half. Among the reasons urged for asking
1t are that the evidence against him was
wholly circumstantial; that the press of
Canada had prior TO the trial so inaamed
and prejudioed the mind of the public
against the prisoner that it was impossible
to obtain jury 60 try the matter impair
TALLY and without bias that much that
was alleged in the newspapers against him
after his arrest, but OF which no proof was
given Mt the trial, must have had an infu-
ence upon the minds Of the jury prejudi-
cial to the prisoner

The Presidential Party Spends the
Day Quietly Walking and Driving.
CREssoN, Pa, Sept. 21-The President
felt somewhat fatigued to-day after his
lively experience in the coal regions of
Central Pennsylvania, and was compelled
to remain away from divine service. He
took walk with Mr.. Dimmick in the fore
noon and a drive with Mrs, Harrison and
Mrs Mckee in the afternoon. The day
was spent very quietly. and there were not
over a dozen persons about the place.
j. R. Mckee of Indianapolis, the Presi-
dents son-in-law, is guest at the executive
cottage, and Mrs. Mckee and children will
leave here Tuesday night for Indianapolis.
The population of Cresson then will be nine
persons, all told, viz: The President,
Mrs. Harrison, Mrs. Dimmick, Pri-
vate Secretary Halford, Miss Sanger,
F. N. Barksdale, representing the
Pennsylvania railroad; representatives
of two press associations and telegraph
operator. The closing of the Mountain
house has necessitated a change in the loca-
ton of the executive offices, and cottage B,
on Pittsburg avenue. just sorth of the
hotel, has been selected for that purpose,
and has been fitted up for the temporary
accommodation Of Messrs. Halford, Barks-
dale, and the representatives of the press
associations
1t is practically settled that the President
and family will remain here until Thurs
day morning, if the present good weather
continues till then. In case of bad weather
however, the party will return to Washing
ton.

CAUGHTIN A HURRICANE.
TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE OF A SHIP
IN THE PACIFIC

The Vessel Swept Clear of Canvas
Whelmed by a Mountain wave-Two
of the Crew Swept Overheard and
Drowned and the Ship Capsised.-In
the Center of the storm.
SAN Francisco, Sept. 21.-The British
ship Ventura put in last evening in distress
from a hurricane encountered Sept. 10,
Westport, Ireland. On Sept. is the captain
noticed signs Of an approaching storm and
prepared to meet IT, The wind and sea in
creased all night, and in the morning there
was a fearful gale blowing. By 1880 the
wind had increased to hurricane. Every
shrec of canvas on the yards was whipped
to fragments. and the ship few along under
bare poles.
SWEPT BY MOUNTAIN WAVE.
Suddenly an enormous wave was seen ap-
preaching, over 100 feet high. IL turned
over the vessel for moment then passed
clear over it. Everything movable was
washed away. Two of her boats, the rails
and stanchions were torn clear off and
borne away. The iron door of the leecabin
burst in as If by batterlng rain, and the
cabin filled with water.
TWO MEN SWEPT OVERHEARD
Two men, Paul Vol, an able seaman, and
John Snola, a sailmaker, were swept over
board, and the waves threw Snota far to
leeward. His shipmates saw him clinging
to piece of broken boat, but could not
help him.
The waves grew heavier, pounding the ship
furiously. Suddenly she was capsized, turn
ing clear over on her side, leaving only the
weather bilge above the sea. Alternately
the bulwark, to which the sailors were
cling ing, and the keel were above water.
IN THE STORMS CENTER.
At p. m. the vessel entered the center of
the storm and was fourteen minutes in q
calm. Then the wind began again from
nearly the opposite direction, and the
vessel partially righted. After a number
of hours the wind began to subside, and
the crew managed to shift some of the
cargo and right the ship. From then on the
ship had fair weather while returning to
this city.
The storm from which she suffered is be-
l1eved to be the same that damaged the ship
Queen Victoria, which put into port a few
days ago.
