Los ANGELES, Cal, July s,-Judge
Rose, of the United States circuit court,
dismissed the libel on the schooner Rob-
ert and Minnie, seized in connection
with the Itata affair. The schooner
loaded at San Francisco with arms and
ammunition for Chilean insurgents
which were transferred at San Clelnente
to the steamer Itata and were taken to
Iquique. Judge Rose, in his decision,
says that while the fact alleged may be
good reason for confscating the Itata,
there is nothing to show that the
schooner fitted out for purposes of war,
and hence the libel was dismissed.

Schooner's Crew.
SYDNEY, N. s. W., July s.-The crew
Of q schooner just arrived here from
New Zealand tell story of the terrible
suffering of the crew of the bark Com
padre, bouHd from Calcutta for Chile.
1t appears from three sailors accounts
that the Compadre caught fire at sea.
and that her captain made for Bluff
Harbor, Province Of otago, New zea-
land, on Poveaux strait.
Before the bark reached Bluff Harbor
she was overtaken by fearful hurri-
cane, during which the sea swept over
her and cleared her decks of everything
which it was possible to wash away.
The Compadre was eventually so storm
stricken that she became water logged
and began to sink.
In this helpless condition the Compa-
DIRE drove upon ridge Of rocks off the
Auckland Islands. Her crew managed
to swim ashore, and there they remained
for 106 days, suffering terrible priva-
tions and being reduced to state bor-
dering on starvation. While hunting
for food one Of the unfortunate seamen
was lost in the bush and is supposed to
have starved to death.
The Compadre's crew were rescued by
o sealing vessel. The latter conveyed
the shipwrecked men to New Zealand.

declared his hostility to monopolies and
Chancellor Won Capriyi, as an excuse
for keeping up the corn duties, has given
currency through semi-otficial express
siors to the suggestion that the high
price and comparative scarcity of corn
are attributable rather to corners and
combinations than to any real lack OF
the article. This, however, is not gen.
orally believed, although there has been
undoubtedly some sharp practice in
prices. #=-=#...-..

OVERDECK'S WIVES.
A Celebrated Case Growing Out
Of the Johnstown Flood.
TWO CLAIM THE LIFE INSURANCE.

Tho Fact of There Being a Mrs.
Overlook No. 2 Was Not Known
Until the Great Disaster Revealed
the secret-To Be Settled In Sep
tember.
JoHNsrowN, Pa, July Sat the time
Of the great food here William Fl. Over
beck was superintendent of the plumb
ing department Of the Cambria Iron
company, and had his life insured in the
Northwestern Masonic Aid association
in favor Of Mary Overlook, who was
set forth in the policy as being his wife,
for $4,000. After Mr.. Overlook was
drowned in the food o woman calling
herself Mrs. Jenny F. Overlook, of
Philadelphia, claimed that she was the
only legal wife Of the decedent and was
entitled to the proceeds of the policy.
Another Mira. Overlook.
Suit was brought by Mrs. Mary
Overlook, Of Johnstown, but the
other Mrs. Overlook having notified the
company Of her claim, the company con-
cluded that the best thing they could do
was to pay the money over TO the court
and let the two wives fight it out there.
This the company did and the money
has been placed in court for about two
years. Yesterday w. II. Rose, counsel
for Mrs. Mary Overlook, made motion
intended to bring the matter to an issue,
and the case was placed at the head Of
the list for the September term.
Mr.. Rose claims that the point in the
case is whether Iary Overlook, the
lady to whom Overlook was married in
Johnstown and with whom he was llv-
ing at the time Of the flood, had an in
surable interest in the life of William
H. Overlook. Colonel Linton, the at
torney for Mrs. Overlook No. l, con-
tends that the question in the case is
whether she was his wife or not
Who VIII Get the Money?
If she was not, without regard to the
fact that the insurance is in favor of
Mary Overlook, wife of William II.
Overlook, then the money goes to Jen-
ME Overlook, the legal wife.
Henry W. Storey, the attorney for the
Overlook heirs, claims that the money
should go to the children of Mrs. Over
beck No. because Mrs. Overlook No.
Q was not his legal wife, while the chill
dren OF Mrs. Overlook No. were his
legal heirs.
The Overlook family, prior to the
food, were among the higher class of
the town, and nothing was known Of
wife No, l until the time came to pay
insurance. The case is exciting much
interest.
