STEAMERS IN COLLISION.

Large Number OF Excurslonists KILLED
and Injured Near baltimore.
BALTIMORE, Nd. July 2e.-The ex-
cursion steamer Louise and Bay line
steamer Virginia were in collision laSt
night near Fort Carroll, and four people
are known to have been killed ana
about seventy-hvs injured more or less.
Many believe that number were
drowned and just how many lives lost
can not be positively determined. The
known dead are:
Mrs Mahlia Marshall, Charles
Grenzer, Daniel Kopp, Mrs Howard
Keizer.
There are seven missing-they may
have jumped or been thrown overheard.
Twelve persons have been taken to
the hospital in badly injured condl-
tion.
Just how many persons went over INTO
the water is not known, but some eye
witnesses of the disaster say that
great number of people, men, women
and children, were sitting on the star
board side when the crash occurred and
Immediately disappeared.
Not since the TivoI disaster has such
thing happened near this city and all
sorts of rumors are afloat as to the num-
Der killed and injured, while the streets
are thronged with anxious relatives and
friends of those reported missing.
Captain Bohannon said that his boat,
the Virginia, struck the starboard quar-
ter of the Louise about the after gang
way. The collision nearly turned the
Virginia around so great was the force
There was no great excitement aboard
the boat although when the collision
occurred man, one lady and child
climbed over. They did not return.
"When 1 left the Louise" he said, u
saw no one in the water. If any went
overheard they must be under the water,
not on top When the collision occurred
the people on the Louise rushed to the
side where the Virginia struck. do
not want to cast any reflection on the
captain Of the Louise, but l believe he
was wrong"
The captain of the Louise disclaims
all responsibility for the accident and
intimates that the blame is entirely
with the Bay line steamer.
The Louise was carrying 1,45O pas
sengers and the scene on board was an
awful one. Four are known to be dead
and eight are now missing
1t is said that the collision resulted
from the efforts of the steamers to avoid
schooner in tow of tugboat The
weather was thick and rainy.
The Virginia struck the Louise on the
starboard side, cutting away the outer
woodwork and crashing into the saloon.
The Virginia's stern was badly twisted
and her bow stove in.

KANSAS WEATHER.

Government Report of the Rainfall and the
Temperature During the Past Week
TOPEKA, Kan, July 2S.-ASsistantS Su-
perintendent Jennings, of the signal
corps, has issued the following bulletin
for the last week:
The rainfall has been very unequalIy
distributed over the Stlte for the past
week. In Riley upwards of two inches
have fallen, which, diminishing east
ward, falls to one inch on reaching the
Missouri river. In Coffey, upwards OF
two inches fell, but diminishes toward
the east, drops to less than one
inch in the eastern parts Of Miami and
Lyon. Heavy rains fell in the southern
half of Clark extending northeast
through the western half of Comanche
and southern part of KiOwa into Pratt
Excellent rains in the contiguous por-
tions of Cove, Trego, Ness and Lane,
and the eastern counties north of Green
wood, WoodSon and Allen and good
rains in Montgomery, Elk, Wilson,
Greenwood, Woodson and Allen. Fair
rains in the extreme southwest.
There has been an excess of tempera-
ture and sunsh me in the central and
western counties, the temperature
reaching 113 degrees on the Goth at
Alton, but the week closes with cooler.
In the eastern counties these conditions
are about'normal for the week.
Where good rains have fallen this
week the crops are doing we'll, espe-
cially hay, pastures and late planted
corn, while the potato crop is improved;
but in the districts not we'll watered the
reports are not favorable. In Greeley
the late corn is in good condition, but
early corn is damaged; wheat
threshing is in progress and the yield
fair, this being the first real wheat crop
raised in the county. This is the gen.
eral condition of the corn over the State.
Chinch bugs are numerous in Coffey and
Jewell and are attacking the corn At
LeavenwOrth apples are plenty. In
Bourbon corn, by the load, has raised
from 25 to As cents per bushel. In the
eastern counties the tomato crop is i'm
proving, but the market is still scantily
supplied. Flax generally is proving a
paying crop

CALIFORNIA MURDER.
An Inventor Kills an Opera House Manage
because of Alleged Blackmail.

An Inventor Kills an Opera House Manager
because of Alleged Blackmail
FRESNO, Cal, July 29.-John ID. Fiske,
lawyer and opera house manager OF this
city, was approached Saturday evening
by Joseph T. Stillman, an inventor, in
front of the Grand Central Hotel and
after few words several blows were
struck and both men walked toward the
middle of the street. Fiske then turned
and ran up the street closely followed
by Stillman who had a revolver in his
hand.
Suddenly Stillman fired a shot into
Fiske's back. They still continued run
ming and soon a second shot was fired,
followed by third at close quarters.
Just as the wounded man was falling
forward on his face Stillman, revolver
in hand ran around the PROSTATE body
and walked rapidly across the street
His right arm was seized by an officer.
He struggled violently in the grasp Of
several men who ran to the assistance
of the officer. He was hurried to the
Jail, followed by tremendous crowd.
FIske was taken into drug store with
the blood streaming from his lips. He
was gasping for breath and as soon as he
was laid on the floor he died. The body
was taken to the morgue where an
autopsy was held.
Stillman consented to talk. He claims
the shooting grew out of an attempt Of
Fiske to blackmail him. He said Fiske
had been demanding a half interest in
certain patents of his and threatened
unless Stillman gave him such interest
he would tell Mrs. Stillman of the al
legged intimacy of her husband with an
other woman. Stillman declares he was
driven to desperation by Fiske's threats
