OUTRAGE AT ASTORIA.
ASTORIA, Or, Nov. 81. Sheriff
Smith this afternoon arrested thirty
two men charged with completely in
the outrage committed on the
British ship Bucclench at the Union
Pacific dock last night. About fifty
men boarded the vessel and attempt.
ed to coax the sailors ashore. Fail.
ing in that, they became abusive,
and used threats. Finally Captain
Johansen locked all his sailors in the
cabin for protection. The intruders
then went through the forecastle,
took all they could get in the way
of sailors clothing and effects. The
men arrested this afternoon were
taken to the county Jail. Twenty
two of them were released, being
unidentified. The complaint was
sworn to regarding the other ten.
They will be given a preliminary
examination before a justice of the
peace today.

The opinion is advanced by some

first anticipated. As to its effects
here this market usually follows thai
of London on which Europe also

of the scarcity of wheat and al

MADRID, Nov. 1a.-ISpecial Tho
hurricane which passed over this part
of Spain We. terday was the cause of a
number of disasters. The gale was par
ticularly severe along tho coast of Gal
licia, which forms the northwest ex.
tremity of the kingdom. Off the town
OF villa Sarcia there was lying at anchor
a Spanish man-of-war. A steam launch
belonging to the war ship had gone
ashore on business connected with the
the ship, with orders to return. When
the launch was ready to return the wind
was blowing with great force and a
very heavy sea was running. Nothing
daunted, however, and bound to obey
orders, the petty officer in command
gave orders to cast off, and started for
the ship. The little craft had not pre-
ceeded far, however. when she became
unmanageable and rapidly drifted
shoreward. She was thrown up,n
shore and five OF her crew drowned.
The others managed to get through tho
breakers and reached the beach in
safety.
