Rose, who was hanged at 5 O'Clock this
morning for the murder of Moses q
Lufkin on the evening of Aug. %. 1888
Rose walked to the scaffold with firm
step. The black cap was adjusted at

above the neck of the prisoner, and he
lay unconscious on the ground below.
After moment of awful silence the
sheriff and his deputies hastily de-
seconded, and picking up the limp body
carried him above and adjusted new
moose about his neck. With his body
held in position over the trap the stays

DR.. Hall Resigns From Union Seminary
New YORK, Oct. 1S.-Dr. John Hall
has resigned from the directorate of the
Union Theological Seminary. on &C.
count of the trial of DR.. Briggs, whom
he favored. DR.. Hall has long been
greatly troubled on account Of the
Briggs matter and his resignation was
expected by conservatives. One of the
staunchest friends of DR.. Briggs is DR..
Halls son Thomas, a preacher in Chi
cago DR.. Hall has been Influenced
greatly by his sons attachment to the
alleged hereto. DR.. Hall relationship
to the Union has been of long standing
and of great value to the insti-
tuition. He is not only pastor
of the richest PRESBYTERIAN
church in America, but he is preacher
of the greatest intellectual power in the
dominion. His fame abroad is greater
than that of any other American
preacher. His name in the Union Sem.
mary and directorate gave the scho; |
grest prestige for years. His presence
on the board of directors has been a
shield to DR.. Briggs Had it not been
for his assurance that the professor in
structions was not dangerous, action
would have been begun in the presby-
terry against DR.. Briggs years ago.

LONDON, Oct 1.-THE Yarmouth
fishing feet has just returned to pert
after having been at sea since the COM
mencement and throughout the recent
most severe gales which have caused SO
much havoc on land and sea. The fisher
men report having had fearful ex-
perierce. Their vessels were consider
ably damaged during the three successive
gales which they battled against. but,
strange to say in view of the herceness
of the storms, only two fishermen
of the feet were drowned.
though it is true several others
were more or less injured.
Among the vessels which have suffered
from the gale is the British steamer
Ambris, which belongs to the line car
rying the mails between Liverpool and
the west coast Of Africa. She sailed
from Liverpool Wednesday with

She shipped an immense quantity of

and boats smashed. The water
poured down the companionways
to the engine room. until it was almost
impossible for the engineers to remain
at their posts. Sea after sea boarded
the steamer, and it was impossible for
her to free herself by means of the

Gen. Miles Report,

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE annual
report of Major General Nelson A. Miles
commanding the department of the Mis-.
sour, is mainly historical review of
the Sioux war of last winter, its causes,
episodes and its results. Among the
causes that resulted in the outbreak he
mentions the gradually increasing pow
erty of the Oheyennes and Sioux, the
insuficiency of the rations issued by the
governn ent, failure of crops in 1885 and
1890, and the inability of the Indians to
immigrate to other parts of the country.
He quotes General Ruger, then COM
handing the department of Dakota, to
snow that the disatfection of the Indians
at Standing Rock was to be attributed
to the following
FAILURES OF THE GOVERNMENT:
To establish an equitable southern
boundary for the reservation; to
expend just proportion of the money

German Vessel Driven Ashore.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Oct 1S.-A Fer
nandina special says: The German
bark Soleido Gloria, from Kingston,
Jamaica, bound for st. Simons, is
ashore at the mouth of Nasua River,
between Amelia and Talbot Island and
is fast going to pieces. Last Friday
she anchored off the Fernandina bar
and displayed signs of distress. When
the pilots went up to her the cap
tain asked for tug to tow the vessel to
the Sapelo quarantine station, saying
that three of the crew had died of fever
and two more we're then sick. He had
only five men fit for duty, including the
cook and himself, and they could not
work the vessel. Saturday morning the
tug Wade Hamilton went out to take
her in tow, but she had disappeared,
and it was not discovered until night
that she was ashore.
SURVIVING MEMBERS
of the crew are at the house of some
colored people on Talbot Island and
are being closely watched by the board
of health agents to prevent them com.
ing into the city until the nature of
their malady is learned. The vessel is
lying within hundred yards of the
Amelia Island shore her back broken
and the sea breaking over her
bulwarks. There is no sign of life
aboard of her except two dogs which
were probably left by the crew to pre-
vent the wreckers from boarding and
stripping her. The crew have made
several trips to the wreck in their boats
and brought aboard their clothing and
stores. It is probable the board of
health will burn the vessel as safe
guard against infection.
