SUFFERING AT SEA.


The Crew of an American Vessel Taken to
Victoria, b. c.
VICTORIA, 3. c., Dec. 26.-The coast
ing schooner Katie returned from West
Coast island yesterday, bringing Captain
Mosher and eleven men of the wrecked
bark Atlanta, which went down during
the recent terrific gales.
Captain Mosher tells story of fright
full suffering by the crew of the Atlanta,
which was owned by Pope & Talbot, of
San Francisco. She left Port Gamble
December with a cargo of lumber.
On the 18th, when off Cape Flattery, a
succession of heavy gales which she
encountered carried away all her sails
and on the 18th the vessel commenced
leaking. On the 10th the main topmast
fell and the vessel began to settle down.
On the 18th the ship broke in two, leav-
ing the crew with nothing but cabin
to float upon. They drifted all night
and on the 18th managed to reach
Claquoquot. where they received every
attention at the hands of the men en-
ployed in the trading station there.
While at Claquoquot Captain Mosher
learned that another vessel must have
been lost, as Indians had found part of
the ships name with the letters ''iswt"
on it. The United States Consul,
Meyers. has taken charge Of the ship
wrecked crew and will send them to
Port Townsend to-day.

away pre-Wedgwood days. There
is the same absence of architectural de-
sign. the same look of haphazardness,
the familiar maze without the smallest
suggestion of plan. All the world
over, indeed, there is family likeness
between the workshops, wherein the
potter's simple craft was pursued until
the very modern edifices of the great
houses of to-day came to be con-
structed. 1t is not i'm apostolic that
under the influences thus fore
Swallowed the 'handicraft may 'disap-
pear, and with it the imagery that is as
true to-day as it was thousands of years
ago, of clay in the potter's hands, and of
the power which he possessed, of his sim
pie volition, of the same lump, to make
one vessel unto honor and another unto
dishonor.
1t is, however, noticeable that the
ancient art of the 'thrower''-the pot
ter of antiquity-is largely practiced
here, though many of the objects are
pressed from plaster molds. Women
are employed to attach the handles and
spouts and to finish the ware after it has
left the thrower. Upon the women too
devolves the delicate work of scratching
in the clay such patterns of flowers and
arabesques as form rough decoration
on the surface. Models or patterns are
rarely used. The women trace their
design with great freedom of hand.
These devices in scratching" are sub
sequently relieved by broad touches Of
color, the cobalt used being mixed with
water and clay, with further admix.
ture of salt to make the pigment run
huidly under the brush.
The apprentices serve term Of from
three to four years, and the work people
are paid upon q system of piece work
called "Tagenwerken," under which
given number of differing articles are
adopted as the unit for calculating the
work per day. For example, a man is
understood to make in one day two hun
dred and forty mineral water bottles or
one hundred and sixty mugs Of one liter
size.
The process Of firing differs material
ly from that commonly pursued in the
ordinary manufacture of pottery. There
the oven is vertical. inclosed within a
bottle-shaped ''hovel," which protects
it and the fires from the external wealth
or. At Hohr-Grenzhausen the oven is
of long horizontal form, with apert-
ures at intervals along each side of the
arched roof. covered with earthenware
slabs which are removable at particular
stages Of the firing This is for the
purpose Of throwing in the salt, the
fusing Of which at the proper heat gives
to the ware its glazed surface.

New YORK, Dec. 27.-The predicted

and Yesterday morning pedestrians
were few and far between and the sur
face cars made poor work OF 1t In spite
Of the fact that four horses were trying
TO do the usual work of two. Navlga-
ton on the rivers and in the bay was
seriously interfered with.
By nightfall over foot and half OF
snow had fallen and there was still no
sign of a let up, in fact the storm
seemed to be gathering force every
hour.
Yesterdays storm on the water was
much worse for navigation than the
heaviest fog. Every thing in the line ct
steam craft was interrupted and the
movement Of vessels propelled by sail
was suspended altogether. The snow
fell so rapidly on the upper bay that
even the revenue cutters hung close to
their wharves adjoining the Staten
island ferry house and did not venture
out. A peculiar feature OF the storm
was that while the wind was unusually
violent on the land there was scarcely
any on the water. The sea. too, was as
smooth as the upper Hudson in mid
summer. and the snow was left in COM
plete possession.
A dispatch from Point Pleasant. n.
J., says a heavy storm of binding snow
is raging along the entire coast from
Sandy Hook to Cape May. The air is
so thick with snow that it isditficult to
look any distance out to sea.
Reports continue to be received from
heavy fall Of snow and consequent in
terruption of traffic. In the Mohawk
valley the storm is unusually heavy.
At o'clock last evening more than
eight inches of snow had fallen at
Amsterdam and it was still showing.
BUFFALO, n. ", Dec. 27.-Thursday
night was the coolest of the season, the
thermometer registering about 10 de-
grees above zero. A heavy blizzard be-
gan early yesterday morning and the
snow drifted badly in places. Later in
the morning the wind subsidized and the
snow continued falling steadily all day
without drifting. Railroad travel was
greatly impeded.
RONDoUT, n. Y, Dec. 27.-The Sc
verest storm of the season set in early
yesterday morning and snow has been
falling continually since. About eight
inches on a level has fallen along the
upper Hudson. The thermometer is
below the freezing point.

THE CONNECTICUT ELECTION

A Ruling That Favors the Democrats OF
Connecticut.
NEW HAVEN, Conn.,. Dee. 26.-Intelli-
gence of the greatest Importance as
bearing upon the contested Governship
has just been received in this city. 1t
is the decision of Judge Hall, a Repub-
ican. in contested judge of probate
case at East Lynne, that paster put
on a blank space under the title Judge
of Probate" in a Prohibition State
ticket, makes the ballot illegal under
the State ballot law.
On almost all of the Prohibition bal
lots in this State the judge of probate
names were left blank and the name
was written in for each probate district.
Under Judge Halls ruling this would
throw out some $500 Prohibition bal
lots in the State and elect Morris (Dem.)
by large majority.
Judge Halls decision is the more sig
nifcant, as it gave the Democratic can
didate the Office in East Lynne district.

The Purchase Not Yet Completed-FollyO Of
Entering With the Certainty of Expul-
sion.
WASHINGTON, Dec, 27.-The boomers
who entered and settled in the Chero-
kee Strip would do well to move out at
once. Dispatches announce that BOOM
impression that the Cherokee Com
missioners have concluded negotiations
for the purchase of the lands. The fact
is that the Commission has not reached
an agreement with the Cherokees. The
agents of the Indian Office have been
instructed to notify settlers to move off
the land and to stay off.
Under the law these settlers have no
right to occupy the land until the sale
is made, and the purchase ratified by
Congress. No official communication
from the Cherokee Commission has been
received for several days at the Indian
Bureau, but the last indications We're
that an agreement would be
reached soon. Some additional in
structions were, several days
ago. sent to the Commission
by the Secretary of the Interior, and
the expectations are that before the
roses bloom the Commission will have
succeeded in purchasing the Cherokee
Strip. Even should their negotiations
be successfully concluded by February
l it is hardly probable that the purchase
could be ratified before the adjournment
of Congress.
When this matter finally comes be-
fore Congress it will probably create
considerable discussion because there
will be good deal of opposition to the
opening of these lands. as there was
when Oklahoma was thrown open to
settlement. The session of the present
Congress is short and there are many
measures of great importance to occupy
the attention of the legislators. So the
boomers can scarcely expect that the
Cherokee Strip will be officially opened
during this Congress.
The probabilities are that the Fifty
second Congress will have to wrestle
with the Cherokee Strip purchase and
till such time when Congress may rat
ify the purchase the boomers will be
kept out of the Strip.

FARMERS PREFERENCES.

An Interesting Scheme 20 Get the Views a
Farmers ON Vital Questions
Preferences and Blaine In the
Lead.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Dec. 24.-An
deliberately planned canvass to ascer-
tain the opinions of farmers through
out the country on practical, economic
al and political questions has been con-
Quoted on an extensive scale for the
past three months by the agricultural
press of Springfield, liberal prizes being
arranged so as to create discussion in
farmers organizations everywhere and
induce large poll of postal card bal
lots. Nearly 10000 cards were re-
ceived answering these questions, among
others: Is Federal aid to agricultural
colleges and experiment stations wise
policy; should the rudiments of the
agricultural science be taught in the
public schools; will the new tariff help
American farming as whole; will the
proposed reciprocity with South Amer
lea benefit our farmers; will reciprocity
with Canada help the farmers of the
United States; would it be wise to sus-
pend the homestead and presumption
laws, withdrawing from sale or Occupa-
ton all public lands for agricultural and
grazing purposes for period of years,
in the hope that population and con-
sumption might catch up with produc-
ton and thus relieve agricultural de-
preston; should the Government own
and operate the telegraph; should the
Government own the railroads; who
should be the Republican and Demo-
cratic nominees for the Presidency in
1899?
The answers have been fully tabu-
lated only so far as they relate to the
last question, but enough has been done
to show that Federal aid to agricultural
education and the teaching of agri-
cultural science In rural public schools
are overwhelmingly Endorsed. The
sentiment regarding Government own
ership of railroads is quite evenly di-
vided. A great many who vote against
such ownership insist on Government
supervision and full control of railroads
The views expressed as to the new tariff
law, reciprocity and the proposed modi-
fcation of the National land policy are
so diverse that it will be some days be-
fore they are classified.
The farmers expressed their prefer
ence for Presidential candidates as fol-
