DEv6NsHIRE ABANDONED

And Her Crew of Thirty-Seveu Men Sup
posed to be Lost-The Vessel Passed at
sea.
LONDON, October 12.-The steamship
Devonshire from Barrow for New York
has been passed at sea abandoned.
Nothing has been heard from her cap
tain or crew. Never has the loss of a
steamship at sea caused so much excite
ment since the time of the great Den
mark disaster.
No particulars of the disaster were re-
ceived in this city, NoOne knows what
has become Of the crew. The chances
are that the captain and his thirty-siX
men are lost. They undoubtedly took
10 the boats when it was seen that the
vessel had no chance. In the sea and
storm that has been raging for the
last week the boats could hardly live.
The DevOnshire was worth at least
$780, 600.
LATER.-The British steamer Norwe-
gian, which arrived at Glasgow yester-
day from Montreal, had on board the
crew Of the British steamer DevOnshire
from Barrow, September 30, for New
York, which was abandoned five hun
dred and fifty miles west of Troy Island.

Catcher William Wilson did not accom-
pany Il. IL now tranSpires that he has
deserted his pretty young wife, leaving
her sick and scarcely penny. She has
been III for about month, and at one
time her recovery was deSpalred Of.
She is now at st. JOsepb's hos
pital. Manager Manning did not learn
Of her condition until few days ago,
and then he made provision for her inn
mediate wants. A subscription was
taken up among the players and sufi-
cient.sUm raised to send Mrs. Wilson TO
her parents home in Pittsburg when
she is sufficiently recovered. When last
heard from Wilson was in Omaha on
prolonged debauch The couple had
been married less than three years. She
was in q convent when she first met the
stalwart catcher, and left it to marry
him. Her marriage was much against
her parents wishes. Wilson played
with the Pittsburg League club In 1890,
and from there came TO Kansas City.

Called Him Bad Names.
MIDDLEsBORo, KY, October 12.-
Some weeks ago i. Spiro's warehouse
was burned TO the ground. A complete
settlement by the Insurance companies
had not been made, but on Friday last
Mr.. James w. Powell, insurance ad-
juster from Lexington, came to this
city to make a final settlement with
Spiro. The two men were in PowelPs
room at the Middlesb0rO Hotel dis
cussing the matter. Spiro wanted six
thousand dollars for his losses, and Pow
ell offered him four thousand. Finally
Splro, believing Powell had insinuated
something beyond his words, called him
a name no gentleman could let pass by,
and fight enSued. SpirO picked up
the table and wanted to brain Powell,
who, though feeling indisposed,
d6dged the blow, and finally knocked
Spiro down, Furnishing him terribly.
Powell was put under arrest and is
obliged to remain In town, as Spiro In
sists upon 4 trial by jNry.

WACO, TEX, October 12.-The Sta tie

Court against Theodore Madison, to
escheat his land under the alien labor
law. Madison being subject Of Great
Britain, Judge Goodrich held that the
law was void, imperative and Of no
effect.

tion, and second, because 1t is in viola
ton Of existing treaties and conven-
tions with other powers.

WILL KILL FOURTEEN.
The Cocks Which Fought Near Faneuil
Hall 10 Pay the Penalty.


Boston, October 11.-Doom has at
last been pronounced upon the twenty
seven unhappy roosters which were
seized on June 26 by the police of Divi-
sion for fighting in the shadow Of
Faneuil Hall, and which have since
been imprisoned in the basement OF The
station, whence their crowings have
raised the echoes every early morn.
The matter of disposing Of the cocks
has been before Judge Parmenter
for long time, and il is now only set
tied by a compromise, the terms Of
which give TO representative OF the
original owners of the roosterS the priv
ilege Of taking thirteen Of the lot, the
remaining fourteen TO be killed by the
police and their bodies sold to market
man at so much pound, the receipts to
be turned into the county treasury to
offset In a measure the expense Of keep
ing and caring for the birds so long
This expense, 1t should be said, foots up
TO quite a snug sum-abOut $500.
In accordance with the decision Of
the Court representative OF the police
and one Of the cock owners met in the
basement of Station ,. The stranger
first selected five of the birds; then the
police chose five; another block of five
was next taken by the stranger, and so
on until the visitor had thirteen and the
police f)urteen. By mistake the best
cock of the lot was left among the
doomed fourteen.
The whole proceeding seems rather
queer and is only explained by the fact
that the issuance Of the order to kill al
Of the fowls would have brought out az
appeal which would have necessitsted
keeping the birds a great while longer,
with all the bother and expense that il
would mean to police and county. II
seemed to the court that compromise
was the best and easiest way out Of It.

FREE THINKER
In Political Matters-A Leading COlored
Man Joins the Democracy.

ALBANY, n. Y, October 12.-Wllliam
II. johnson, Of this city, the President
Of the AirO-American League, has ex-
pressed his determination to supportthe
entire Democratic State ticket at the
next election, and the Republican lead
ers are a little exercised as a conse-
uuence. In an interview Mr.. Johnson
said the Republican party was no longer
liberal in its attitude toward the negro
voter, and that Mr.. FasSett was not an
honest exponent of the principals Of the
party. The latter had advocated the
cause of the colored man in the South,
but had ignored him in New York
State. Mr.. Johnson also thought Mr..
Cantor's invitation to the colOred voter
20 affiliate himself with the Democratic
party was very important move, and
that the party would undoubtedly keep
faith with she negro. During the pres
ent administration, Mr.. johnson said,
the colored nan has received no recog-
milton.
