ST. PAUL, Mimi, Oct. 2l.-Steps will
at once be taken to investigate the
charge that the warden of the peniten-
tiary permits men serving life-terms for
murder to leave the prison on passes.
Among others the afidavits cover the
cases of Cole Younger, one of the out
laws who shot the bank cashier at North
field, and Ole Northrone, who killed his
father and danced on the body. Both
are life prisoners. At various times
Warden Randall gave them permission
to fish in the st. Croix River, and
has given Cole Younger standing per-
nit to visit the warden's home. The
chief of police makes affidavit that
Northrone has stolen from the prison
and sold in the town over $500 worth of
brass and iron. A citizen of Hudson,
Wis, makes affidavit that he found
Northrone in Wisconsin with a woman
of bad repute, and carrying in his pocket

GREAT LOSS TO SHIPPING.
Disasters Resulting from the Fierce Gale
of Yesterday

of Yesterday.
New YORK, Oct, lS.-The fierce gale
which prevailed yesterday on the
Atlantic coast resulted in great disaster
to shipping interests.
An unknown schooner in tow was
driven ashore on Governors Island,
but came off at high tide. A loaded
lighter while passing the battery had her
mast blown out.
The tug James A. Garfield was run
into off Pier 3, East River, by the tug
Amos c. Barstow. The Garfield was
cut in two and went to the bottom
within a minute or two after being
struck. There were nine men on board
of her, two of Whom-John Lyons, fire.
man, and John Steele, ship carpenter
were drowned. The others were res
cued.
Off Princetown schooner was seen
to be laboring heavily. She was watched
for while and three men could be seen
aboard. Finally huge wave struck
her, and the next moment she disap-
peared. 1t was too rough to go to her
assistance
The tug William E. Chadwick has ar
rived at Providence having lost four
barges on the way. Two Of these sank,
but their crews were saved. Nothing is
known of the others.
A four-masted schooner was wrecked
near Tuckernuck shoal. The schooner
Grey Eagle was completely destroyed
by the wind at Wellfeet. At that place
seventeen fishing boats have been driv-
en- ashore.
The captain of the Mary Sullivan, a
fishing vessel, which ran onto the reef
off Provincetown, reports that he part
ed COmpany with the Swan another
fishing boat, and at that time her masts
had gone by the board and she was
leaking badly. She carried crew Of
four men and was captained by Henry
Bascom, of Newport.
Reports from all points show that
many small fishing vessels have been
driven out to sea, and it is not known
whether or not they have foundered.
The United States coast survey steamer
Bache is dragging off Nantucket, and it
is feared she will be driven ashore.

TRUST IN WINDOW GLASS.
Transparent Monopoly Embracing All
Western Houses.

F1NDLAY, o., Oct. 21.-This morning
every window glass factory in Findlay
went into the new trust which has been
organized to control the production and
sale of window glass. This trust
embraces all the window glass
houses in the United States West OF
Pittsburg, with the single exception of
that at Celina, o., which is owned by
Findlay parties. The effect of this COM
bination will be to increase the cost of
glass because it prevents any competi-
ton. The new tariff gives the trust
additional protection from importations,
and although no window glass will be
imported, yet the prices will be as
high as though the glass was imported
and the duty paid upon it. The
factories here do not yet know, who
will handle their product, but all the
orders will have to come through one
central agent. The headquarters of the
trust is located at Chicago.

The Oceans Floor.

From the ST. Louis Republic.
Here is an end of all romance about
hidden ocean depths. The whole ocean
is now mapped out for us. The report
of the expedition sent out from London
for the purpose of ocean surveys has re-
Gently been published. Nearly four years
were given to the examination of
the currents and the floors of the oceans.
The Atlantic, we are told, if drained,
would be a vast plain with mountain
range in the middle running parallel
with our coast. Another range crosses
it from Newfoundland to Ireland, on the
top of which lies the submarine cable.
The ocean is thus divided into three
great basins, no longer "unfathomed
depths" The tops of these sea mount
aims are two miles below sailing-ship,
and the basins, according to Reclus, al
most five miles. These mountains are
whitened for thousands of miles by
tiny, creamy species of shell, lying as
thickly on their sidesa as frost crystals on
snow-bank. The deepest parts are red
in color, heaped with volcanic masses.
Through the black, motionless waters OF
these abysses move gigantic abnormal
creatures never seen IN upper currents.
AN extraordinary advance in the use of
cocoa seems to nave taken place OF late
years in England. In the House OF Com
mons. this last session, the Right Hon. G.
j. Goschen, the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer, called attention to 1T as cause
for much of the falling off of the use of cof-
fee. He attributed it in measure to the
position preparation of cocoa known as
s'Grateful and Comforting had taken. In
accord with this suggestion it may be in
tereSting to follow the course cocoa has Ia
ken in England since 1882 when the duty,
which had been standing at sd per pound,
with an importation of under half million
pounds, was reduced to I'd per pound, and
not long after we find the homeopathic
doctrine of medicine introduced into the
kingdom, and that the use of cocoa was
specially advocated by physicians adopting
that mode of practice. Soon after we find
the first homeopathic chemists established
in England (the firm of James Epps & Coz
produced special preparation which only
needed boiling water or milk to be at once
ready for the table, and the superior char
acter of this production has, no doubt, done
much. as the Chancellor of the Exchequer
said, to bring about (backed as it was by
further reduction of the duty to Id per
pound) the advance made.
