TERRIBLE DISASTER.
Eight Farm School Boys and Their
Instructor Drowned.
CHUNG TO The BOAT FOR HOURS
But No Help Cnino and Ono by One
They Became Exhausted and Sank
Beneath tho Waves, Aftcr UttcrIng
a Prayer and Bidding Each Other
Fnrcwcll..-Two others Held outand
Wcrc Saved.

Bosros, April 11.-Last evening an
instructor and ten boys connected with
tho Boston school fnrm at Thompson's
Island were capsised in q sail boat and
the instructor and eight OF tho boys
drowned. Tho victims were: A. F.
Nordberg, instructor; Frank L. Hitch
cock, Homer +. Thatcher, George F.
Ellis, Thomas Phillips, William W.
Curran, Charles II. Graves, Harry {.
Loud, Adclbert II. Packard. Tho res.
cucd boys wero 0. W. Clements and
Charles A. Limb.
Tho instructor had been to the city
during the day to attend church, and
tho ten boys, constituting q regular crew
Of tho school, left the island to snil to
City Point to convey tho instructor TO
tho island. Tho trip is considered per-
icctly safo under ordinary circum-
stances. As q pecaution, however, in
view OF o breeze, the crew took 4 single
sail boat instead OF n double craft, in
which the trip is often made. The trip
to tho point was made and soon after 7
p. IN. the boat started on tho return
trip. At q point supposcdt to be between
Spectacle Island and Thompson Island
tho boat was struck by q squall and i'm
mediately capsized. The eleven occu-
pants were thrown into tho ice cold
water, but being accustomed to strict
discipline, and tho exercise OF hcroism
in the school, they all secured positions
where they could cling to tho overturn-
ed craft, and then began a long wait for
resue which to most Of them was mover
to come. According to the testimony
Of the two survivors, they encouraged
each other by words Of cheer, OCCASION
ally shouting in the hope that they
might be heard by some on shore.
At one time q tug was scenin the
distance, and they shouted with all
! their remaining strength, but could not
attract attention. Tho night was cold
and the shores and wharves were ADAM
doncd. When the time for the boat to
return to the island had passed the
superintendent OF the school, Charles
II. Bradley, went to tho beach to scan
the waters toward City Point to see ii
his boys were approaching. There was
fire OH 4 ncishboring island, and he
got in tho range OF the freight in the
hope that it would aid his vision, but
he saw nothing. The survivors say
that they saw his form patrolling tho
beach and felt sure that rescue would
come, but it did not. Finally the chill
OF the water and the cxcrtion necessary
to keep their heads above the surface
overcamc the unfortunates, and one by
n they were compelled to release their
hold.
The instructor was the first to 90.
Each offered n prayer or a word OF fare
well to the others as he gave up his hold
on life. Some OF them endured the I'M
equal contest for nearly four hours, and
it was quite four hours, or about II
o'clock, when the boat with the two
survivors clinsin2 to it, but exhausted,
drifted ashore. They were Immediately
cared for, and are rapidly recovering
from the effects OF their exposure.

Chicago Wheat Men hmazpd mt tho
cablcs-A London Failure.
CHICAGO, April 1.-THE little Ish-
maelito seller, Edward Partridge, made
u pretensc to-day OF selling against the
world, but it was noticed that only a
few OF his avowed brokers were in the
pit, and their actions, while ostensibly
bearish to distraction, were reallyd de-
cidedly circumspect.
The improved condition OF winter
wheat, us shown in the Washington sta
~tistics, was the chief factor in the rise.
The report would probably have had
greater influence and gone a great way
toward helping the bulls humiliating
Partridge in. earnest, but for news
across the water. The trade was 4 good
deal amazed Mt tho cables. Half the
brokers inclined to the opinion that tho
Liverpool price had been rugged by
some interested operator on this side.
Saturday night the trade about unani-
mously conceded that the government
winter wheat report was bullisll. Ca
blcs were expected up, rs a matter OF
course, but they came almost panicky.
Liverpool prices were down I'D. Later
there arrived news that Curriman,
Lhillips & Co, a prominent grain firm
OF London, had failed, and other fail
urcs were said to be imminent. This
was taken as largely explaining the
weak cables, though it was stoutly as
serted that tho English trade as were
playing tho American government re-
port ms q more or less bearish card, and
suspicious OF manipulation in the fig
ures were not wholly removed.
The market for May wheat here open.

with the closing figures of Saturday.
The price touched S4b, reacted to S35,
and about 10:l5 q. m. suddenly ascend.
cd to $50. 1t was currently reported
that the visible supply statement
would show a decrease of possibly $780,
600 bushels. From $50, however, there
was a remarkable reaction to $50, the

4 Lynching Probable.

PORTLAND, OREGoS, April l1.--Gov.
Pennoyer, has received q dispatch from
tho sheriff OF Malheur county in this
state calling upon him to order out Il
detachment OF tho state militia to quell
n riot at Vale. Tuesday last the Baker
brothers, laid in wait for Vim. Hum
bert, and without warning riddlcd him
with bullets. The murder was tho re-
suit OF quarrel between tho men over
tho Democratic primaries. The Bakers
waro landed safely in jail, but the citi-
ems of Vale, and the surrounding
country arc gathering in large numbers.
and alynching party is quite probable.
NGoy. Pennoyer has ordered tho militia

Tho Significance ofthc Republican Victory
IN nIpln Islnud.

In Ithodo Island.
New YonK, April ll.-sonator iii.
rich, OF Rhode Island, in M interview
with a Tribune reporter oil the elections
in his state, said:
"The result was most gratiiyingto tho
Republicans and q great surprise to the
Democrats, who felt SO confident OF sue.
cess. Tho result Is significant OF many
things, and all the moro 60 in face OF the
very confident claims made by the
Democrats, and particularly by Mr..
Clcvcland's friends, that they would
have not simply ayplufalityl but IA ma.
jority, upon tho vote for governor, and
would also control tho state legislature.
Tho Democrats cannot offer any cx.
cuscs for thoir defeat. Nothing was COLI
ccalcd by tho Republicans. Tho Dom.
ocrats mado n supreme effort to win,
and sent their best speakers TO Rhode
Island to try to hoodwink the working
mon, but 1t was not a success.
"Iho issues in Rhode Island wcrc
national Ones, and on those lines the
battle wa, fought. Tho tariff and the
currency wore the two principal isaues,
and tho result in our state demonstrates
that the national Democracy Is on tho
wrong side Of both questions. Not only
arc they on tho wrong side in Rhode
Island, but IN every state in tho Union,
and tho Republican victory III our state
proved 1t. And this Republican tri.
umph also goes to show that to DO sue
cessful tho Republican party must
make m aggressive fight for tho protec-
ton Of American industries and the
maintenance OF u sound American cur
rency.
"Now, that tho Rhode Island election
is over the people OF tho country can
not ask for any greater proof that tho
Republican party is making its fight
this year on tho grandcst principles
principles which appealed in Rhode
Island 10 tho worliingmcn and every
good citizen OF tho state, and which will
appeal to tho country so powerfully
next November that n magnificent Re-
publican triumph will DO the result"
