Notes FROM the Canital.

ONE effect of the anti-lottery act,
passed at the last session of Congress-
it is stated at the Post-office Depart
ment, is shown by the falling off in the
volume of money-order, postal-note and
registered-letter business at the New
Orleans post-office A statement of
money-orders paid during twelve weeks
of last year, as compared with the same
period this year, shows decrease in
number of 16,G43, and in amount of $SO,-
600. During the same period the num-
Der of postal notes paid fell from 81, 593
to S,S76, and the amount paid decreased
$4,000. tn
The Treasury Department has decid-
ed that merchandise imported and en-
tered for warehouse prior to October 1,
1890, and which still remains in bond,
should be re-liquidated by assessing
duty on the merchandise covered there
by which may still be in warehouses.
The House Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds has ordered a
favorable report on a substitute for the
bill introduced in the House by Mr..
Flower, of New York, for the erection
of new $4,oO0,OOO Custom-house in
New York City. HH'
The Census office has issued bulletin

MYSTERY OF THE SEA,

Which Will Never lie Cleared Up-The
steamer Thanemore, Torty-Six Souls
Aboard, Conceded Lost.
On November 20 the British steamer
Thanemore, Captain Butcher, left Bal
timore for London. Since that date
nothing has been heard of the vessel
except that she was seen off the capes
shortly after her departure from Balti-
more. On January rs the British brig
Amelia, Captain Hocken, from Laguna,
arrived at Queenstown and reported
that on January 8, latitude 80 deg. north,
longitude II deg, west, when five hundred
miles north of Chesapeake bay, she
passed an immense quantity of wreck
age, which was strewn over the water
for thirty miles. The wreckage was APP
parently that of a cattle steamer, and
was believed to be that from the miss
ing Thanemore. The owners of the
vessel have now given her up as lost, and
Wednesday she was posted at Lloyds as
missing. The Thanemore was a screw
steamer, and was built at Glasgow in
1869. She was of 1871 tons burden, and
was owned by w. Johnston e. Co., of
Liverpool She carried crew of thirty
four persons. There were also twelve
cattle men on board. There were 543
head of cattle on board the Thane-
more.

LABOR RIOT.
Non-Union Thread Spinners Mob
bed at Kearney, N. j.
Special Officers Fire Their Revolvers and
Club the Crowd, Including wom-
en-A Boy Shot.

Riot and bloodshed occurred at Clark's
thread mills at Kearney, N. j., at 8
o'clock Thursday evening. When the
non-Union spinners quit work they
were carried over the rivel from the
Newark side in a launch, and WI n they
landed on the Kearney side they were
met by throng of tvs thousand per-
sons, men, women and children, hood
lums predominating. When they land
ed at the dock a mighty yell went up,
and there was continued hooting and
bowling till the men were safely inside.
Mr.. Wamsley led the line, guarded on
each side by special officers. When the
spinners got inside the gate a boy on
the dock threw stone over the fence,
and Gregory and his special officers at
tempted to rush out on the crowd.
Chief Turnbull, of the Kearney police,
then ordered the specials back,
threatening to arrest them for disorder
ly conduct, and they retired. Immedi-
ately after woman in the crowd threw
stone, smashing the mill officers win
dow. Thereupon the specials rushed
out on the crowd, fourishing their re-
volvers and shooting in the air and into
the ground. The crowd surged back,
but flung shower of stones which
crashed through the mill windows.
Yelling and window-breaking were
kept up until the tumult attracted hum
dreds of men and women from Newark
For half mile along the river front
there stretched mass of hu-
manity. Men inside the mill played
n line of hose on the crowd.
The descending stream of water
made the angry crowd more angry, and
the window-smashing went on. Several
girls were crushed, and one girl was
dubbed. Willie Richmond, aged nine,
was shot through the foot by special.

BURNED LETTERS.
A Fire in the New York POST -Oh1co
Building.
1t Is Caused by Electrlcity--Tatal Burning
ofa Little Newsboy.

The New York post-office building
caught fire at 1890 o'clock Saturday
night and hundreds of bags of news
papers were burned and thousands Of
letters will be delayed in reaching their
destination. A few minutes after 10
o'clock every electric light in the build
ing was suddenly extinguished, leaving
every floor in darkness Following
this came the smell of smoke, and
the three hundred employees who were
at work distributing the mails stam-
peded out of the building. Scarcely had
the last man reached the entrance on
in from the engine-room and envel-
oped the rear of the building. AL
though but few minutes elapsed be-
fore the engines arrived the entire
rear of the Post-office Building on the
basement and ground floors seemed to be
on fire, so quickly did it spread. The
firemen pulled little newsboy from
one of the ventilators, who had evident
ly crept in there to get out of the cold.
He was terribly burned, and was taken
away in an ambulance. He died in the
hospital Sunday morning. The fire was
confined to the rear and lower portions
of the building, and Superintendent
Hall, with the aid of his staff of clerks,
succeeded in removing the bulk of
the mail to another portion of the
building remote from the fire. How
the fire originated no one seems to
know, but the general impression is
that it originated from defect in the
electric lighting apparatus. Most of the
damage to the mails was by water, and
the superintendent said it would take
some time before it would be properly
dried out for mailing, The mail matter
which suffered the most was newspa-
pers. The loss to the machinery, build
ing and mail matter will not exceed
1876, 600. Superintendent Hall said work
would go on as usual.

Hardest Battle of His r.ifa

With any other victim of its assault
than General Sherman death would
have won its victory at any time during
Wednesday night, but the grim old
military hero is giving the reaper the
strongest battle of his life, and even
now, hard pressed as he is, he
keeps his front to the enemy and
is only retreating step by step.
Hemmed in on all sides by the de-
stroyer, his defeat is inevitable. At one
o'clock Friday morning 1t was stated
that General Sherman appeared to be
asleep. His breathing indicated that
ms lungs were filled with mucus. DIR.
Alexander thought the erysipelas was
Leaving his patient. At 1,l5 the follow
ing bulletin was given out: General
sherman is resting quietly. His condi-
ton is somewhat improved"
