MONTREAL, June e-A tragedy enacted on
one of the principal streets of Montreal this
afternoon has thrown the city into paroxysm
of excitement. St. Catharine street was a.
usual crowded with pedestrians when sud.
denly they saw lash and q puff of
smoke and heard pistols report fol-
lowed by a wcman's scream. A cab was
brought to q standetill7 and q woman
alighted. In 1t were still Two men, one with
unconscious and his blood soaking into the
rugs of the carriage. The wounded man was
Eugene 81. Cowlss Of Cleveland, O., son of
Edwin Cowles, late editor of the leader.
| His assailant was 4. O. Halle of the same
| city and the woman was Mrs. Cowlss. After
| q few hurried words Halle ordered the cab
man to drive to the General hospital.
Tho lady re-entered the carriage which
started for the hospital, distance of half q
mile. On arriving at the hospital DR.. Kirk
patrick, medical superintendent, had the
wounded man conveyed to private ward
where DIR. Fenwick, one of the attending
physicians, WAS called. There was clos.
examination, q hurried consultation, and 1
was announced that there was no immediate
danger. The bullet had entered the RICH
side of the neck and after piercing the jaw
bone emerged through the cheek on the op
posite side.
According to Halle, Mrs. Cowles and
party of her Cleveland friends followe'
Cowles to Montreal after he had carried hi
little daughter. They arrived here thi
morning and arranged for an inter
view between the husband and wife
Meanwhile Cowles had placed his chill
in q convent with instructions that sh
was not to be given up without Iwrit
ten order from him. Cowles insisted tht
the interview with his wife must be privat,
but her brother would not consent, and b
accompanied them in the cab for drive

ress when Cowles made q movement as If

The preacher now defined the prize which
Paul had in view, the mark and the goal.
The prize sought was q personal nearnees, q
personal likeness, to Christ.
Christ, in real communion with him, go that
Christ is not simply some great being of
whom we have heard and whom we are con-
strained to believe is the savior, but q
friend?
There are many psople named the name Of
Christ who are scarcely recognized as Chris

him or not the spiritual image
that is developed on certain degrees
of faith is 60 faint that I am afraid it
will be as difficult to recognize 1t in heaven
az on earth.
Moses forsook Egypt and the palace of the
Pharaohs and the pleasures Of sin, and en-
dured everything as q voluntary outoast.
Why's Because he had respect unto the re-
compense of the reward.
If you are going to Cross the line and get
the prize, we must make up our minds that
the culture of our physical nature must have
first place.
In closing the speaker counseled to lay
aside every weight and strive in all earnest.

when, Notwithstanding the care exercised,
she struck Fastnet Rock, about three miles

forefoet got on the rock and but for the
promptitude displayed in reversing the en-
gines q great fatality would have been re-
corded.
Passengers who were interviewed say that
the steamer trembled all over when she
struck the rock. For a time there was in-
tense alarm on board, the density of the fog
adding to the ominous character of the situa-
ton. The passengers were finally Quoted
by the repeated assurance of the commander
and other officers of the steamer that not the
slightest danger existed. The full extent OF
the damage will not be ascertained until the
vessel Is dooked ct Liverpool.
The Rome's stem is broken at the peak
and she shipped large volume of water
forward. The steamer started for Liverpool
| at eleven o'clock, proceeding at half speed.
The passengers presented to the captain OF
the City of Rome an address commencing
| his care and skill.
It ia rumored that the fog gun on Fastne
rock was not fred until after the City Of
Rome struck.

rifed and then the two robbers turned their
attention to the express car. This they
found deserted, much to their chagrin and

NEW YORK, June S.-As aresult of Special
Treasury Agent Wilbur's work five men now
languish In Ludlow street Jail and two more
are out on bail on charge of smuggling.
Those in Jail are John Hart, John Hughes
and John Baker, petty officers on the Inman
steamer City of New York, and John Lathen,
head barkeeper, and John Merdook, ships
storekeeper of the Inman.. liner City of Chi
cago. Those out on bail are Edward Baxter,
dock clerk, and John Ford, chief cooper, both
employed by the Inman line at Jersey City.
Lathen and Merdock were arrested early
this morning on board the City Of Chicago
by Inspectors Hassey and Britton of Agent
Wilbur's staff, who only succeeded in bag
ging their men by the most skillful maneu-
vers. Lathen and Merdook had learned that
the customs officers were on the lookout for
them, and preparations were made to take
them off the vessel between Sandy Hook and
quarantine. This action was frustrated,
however, by Inspectors Britton and Hassey,
who, In company with United States Deputy
Marshal Adler, went down to lower quaran-
tine at Q O'Clock this morning on the mail
boat Fletcher. As the Fletcher crossed the
| City of Chicago Lathen was seen standing
| by the gang plank. He was recognized
by Inspector Britton, who had occasion
In 1885 to arrest him for smuggling q
lot of ready made clothing. He was con.
voted in the United States court al
Trenton and then got off by paying q heavy
fine. The specific charge against Lathen and
Merdock is that on May Is they brought
into Jersey City lot of ready-mads cloth
