An Interesting Story of a Wreck How the Passengers Were Saved- Landed on a Reef Where the Water Was Waist Deep.
 LONDON, May 20.-The Daedalus reef in the Red Sea, upon which the British steamer Dacca, from London April 30 for Brisbane, struck on Friday last, is 400 miles from Suez and is directly in the track of navigation. A
 lighthouse, the light from which is visible for fourteen miles at night, marks the reef, which ia few inches above the sea at low water.
 the morning. The weather was fine and clear. Only few of the passengers had left their berths. The steamers bow was stove in, but she foated for four hours. There were twelve saloon passengers on board and large number of emigrants in the steerage, g majority of the latter young women. The passengers took refuge on the reef, a few of them being accommodated in the lighthouse, but most of them being forced to remain on the rock. Many of the latter were compelled to stand in water up to their waists. Most of the passengers lost their clothing.
 The British steamer Rosario, from Bonn bay May 5, for Odessa, barely succeeded in rescuing the officers and crew of the Dacca before she sank. The British steamer Pal-
 amcotta, from Greenock May 1, with coal, for Calcutta, took the passengers off the reef and afterwards took the Dacca's officers and crew from the Rosario and landed all of | them-419 persons-at Suez on Sunday. GarheIdss Remains Removed. CLEVELAND, May 20.-At an early hour

senate Proceedings.

WAsHINGroN CITY, Sept 12.-In the SEN
ate the conference report on the railroad
land forfeiture bill was taken up, and Nor
gan continued his argument in opposition.
Owing to indisposition Mcpherson was
excused from the conference committee on
the tariff bill. and Voorhees, substituted.
Morgan was followed by Sanders in favor
of the conference report, the main point of
his contention being that lands actually
patented to railroad companies could not
be taken from Them because they turned
out to be mineral lands.
Hearst took an opposite view, and in
sisted that mineral lands were reserved by
the riginal grants.
Sanders said that in the courts of Wash
ington, California and the supreme court
of the United States the term mineral
lands" had been held to mean lands COM
mercially valuable for farming purposes.
Without concluding the argument Sanders
Welded for an executive session, and the
senate soon adjourned.

THE LAND FoRFE1rURE BILE.
Sen ator Morgan Makes Very Long Speecl
Mhfch Ia Anawerad hx 2anAnHs

SD00CG
Which IL Answered by Sanders.
WASHINGTON CITY, Sept. 1.-THE day in
the Senate was taken up almost entirely
with speeches on the land forfeiture bill
Senator Morgan, of Alabama. spoke yes
terday four hours in opposition to the bill,
and today he took three hours to conclude
his remarks. The burden of his speech
was that the bill was bad one, extremely
iniquitous, wholly in the interest of mo-
nopolies and corporations, and so bad, in
fact, that it was . disgrace to congress.
Yet if the bill had excepted from forfeiture
forty miles of land in Alabama, where the
company to which it was granted built six
miles of road twenty-six years ago, and
has not built any since, Senator Morgan
would be willing to support it.
Senator Sanders of Montana occup led
the balance of the day in an argument in
favor of the bill. He showed the fallacy of
q recent decision by Judge Sawyer, which
said that the title even to mining land had
passed to the railroad company by the
grant. Sanders said that Sawyer's de-
cision would except from the grant only
such mining land as was known to contain
mineral at the time the grant was made
while he claims that mineral land Is for
ever exempted. no matter when the min.
erals are discover ed.
The Northwestern senators, those es.
pecially along the line of the Northern Pa.
cifc road, took considerable interest in the
speech, although they were prepared to
vote long ago. 1t is only q question ol
time when the conference report will be
agreed to. as the Senate having passed the
bill will agree to the conference. The
Washington and Oregon people are anxious
to have the bill disposed of and ont of the
way. as their constituents have been urging
its passage.

Testtmony Of Pension Once Clerks Not
Taken, Being Unnecessary.
WASHINGTON CRY. Sept. 12.-The Raum
investigating committee met this morning
in the pension building for the purpose of
taking the testimony Of 1873 clerks. who. 1t
was charged, had received promotions by
reason Of their purchasing stock in the
Universal Refrigerator Company. The
committee. however. decided not to call
any Of the clerks for examination. Raum
had requested the committee to subpoena
every employee In the department. who had
been promoted under his administration
to refute the charge that any of the en-
ployes have purchased or held stock in the
Universal Refrigerator Company, or have
been promoted by reason thereof. The
committee decided to comply with his re-
quest on the ground that it would, in their
opinion, judging from the evidence already
taken, be . useless consumption Of time
and needless expense. The committee
have adjourned. This practically closes
the Investigation.
