IN PERIL AT SEA.
The City OfParis Has . Narrow Escape
from Foundering.

QUEENSTOWN, March 3l.-The Inman
line steamer City Of Paris, towed by the
steamer Aldersgate, arrived at Queens
town at o'clock Sunday morning.
The accident by which the City of Par
Is was disabled occurred on Tuesday,
and was caused by the breakage of the
low.pressure cylinder of the starboard
engine, the flying pieces Of metal fore
Ing the bulkhead and disabling the
port engine. The passengers became
panic-stricken when they found that
the ship was making water, and that
there was possibility Of the vessel
laundering. The water which flooded
the engine compartment was forced
through the injection tubes, which, it
is alleged, the engineers during the ex-
element had neglected to shut. The
starboard engine was shattered almost
to pieces, the port engine-rooms were
filled with upward of 1000 tons of water
and the port engine was entirely use
less.
All went we'll until the evening Of
the 25th, when, at $50 p. M, while the
steamer was going at full speed, the
star board engine suddenly collapsed
and the low pressure cylinder broke,
smashing the injection water pipe con-
nections and bursting the iron bulk
head dividing the port and starboard
engines. The metal few around in all
directions. A portion of the machin-
cry. smashed through the steamers
double bottom. The water rushed
through the hole into the engine-room
compelling the engineers and firemen
to rush to the deck for safety. Terrible
consequences would have ensued but
for the bravery of the second engineer,
who, at the risk of his life, enveloped
as he was In kissing steam, managed to
shut off the steam, thus saving the ma
chinery from total demolition, which
would have happened had the engines
continued working.
Things began to wear an anxious as
| pect, when Chief Officer Parson and q
crew Of six men started away in a life
boat in the hope of securing the assist
ance of some passing steamer. At 8
o'clock on Thursday afternoon the Ad-
ratio bore down on the City of Paris,
and at the same time the Aldersgate
hove in sight. The /Adriatic then
steamed away. Although the passen-
gers were In a state of alarm for four
days, the GOODNESS of the ships officers
reassured them and prevented panic.
The weather was fine and the sea
smooth, or the ship would have un-
doubtedly foundered the first day after
the accident.

ASKED TO RESIGN.
That is the Story Now Told of Bis
marck.

BERLIN, March 31.-The story finds
currency, but is not printed in the
German papers, that Bismarck was
virtually forced out of the chancellor
ship.
The kaiser began to treat the prince
coolly soon after the latter's return to
Berlin. This GOODNESS increased 30 rap
idly that the prince formally raised the
issue. The prince sounded the emper-
or, and finally asked, "Am I in your
way?" To the princes establishment
his majesty gave 10 positive denial on
the spot, but seemed inclined to tenn
porize. Then the prince intimated q
Willingness to surrender all his Offices
except the direction of foreign affairs.
His majesty was very willing to do this,
but the veteran chancellor soon became
convinced that division of his funct-
ions at this especial juncture would be
extremely dangerous, and 30 suggested
to the kaiser the expedience of post
poning all action in the matter until
the Reichstag had come together, or
until midsummer.
orders he knew the latter would rather
resign than execute. When the prince
presented the matter anew to his SOW
ereign, the orders were repeated, with
the knowledge that the chancellor's
resignation would follow. The chan.
cellor, though greatly excited, did not
send in his resignation at once. His
majesty became impatient, and the
question was several times put to the
chancellor, "Why do you not send iT
your resignation" But his majesty
resolution was not to be shaken. Al
soon as he could do better without tht
chancellor he Withdrew from him. HI
spoke to the chancellor with the great
est frankness. and managed to brint
about several occasions when he nigh
do SO by allowing things to be done cal
culated to provoke an outburst from th'
chancellor.
The latter, aware too late how mat
ters stood, sought to effect compro
mise in vain. His msjesty's mint
was fimly made up and Bismarck re
signed.
BERLIN, March 31.- Prince Bis
marck's departure from Berlin was tn
occasion of the greatest public demon

tional, and the big establish
ment never showed to better
advantage than at the present
time. when the superb wall pa
per department, dressed for
the spring opening, shines
forth like a dream Of beauty.
In truth, it would be hard
to duplicate this magnificent
