CITY Ole CHICAGO ASHORE.

She Runs Her Stern Into n Cliff in n
Dense Fog-Passengers Landed by
Means OF Lifeboats.
LONDON, July 1.-The steamer City of
Chicago went ashore in dense fog about
half mile inside the West Head of Kin
sale. Tugs have been dispatched to the
scene. The steamer ran her stern into the
cliff. The lifeboats were at once launched
and other life-saving apparatus brought
into play. The sea was still at the time.
The wind was moderate, from the south
southwest and light.
The City of Chicago is an IRON steam ship
of 1888 tons. She carried from New York
1879 cabin passengers and a cargo of gen.
eral merchandise.
The City of Chicago struck the cliff
within half an hour of high water. The
passengers and mails from the stranded
steamer are now being lauded by means of
the lifeboats. The powerful Liverpool
tug Stormcock has gone to the scene and
will render whatever assistance is neces-

date-Senafor Stewards Boom.
OMAHA, Neb., July chairman Scott
of the state central committee of the PEG.
Piles party has sent Judge Gresham the
following: "Will you stand as the csndi-
date of the Omaha convention for the
presidency on the st. Louis PLATFORM
Judge Gresham tonight replied: 81
stand by my interview of few days ago
on this subject. Ny name will not be pre-
sented to the Omaha convention"
In the interview to which the judge re-
fers he stated that he agreed with the peo-
pies party in a great many things, but did
not agree with that party In all its declara-
aons. This telegram from the judge
Is interpreted as meaning that
he cannot stand as candi-
date on the st. Louis platform. The tele-
gram caused considerable excitement here
and 1t was generally accepted by the more
conservative as clearly indicating that
Judge Gresham did not desire his name
longer mentioned in this connection. The
indications are that the Gresham boom Is q
thing of the past and that General James
B. Weaver of Iowa will be the psrty's pres
idential nominee. Senator Stewards boom,
however, has received quite an impetus.
Ben Terrill of Texas Is prominently men
toned in connection with the vice presi
dency.
The passage of the free silver bill by the
senate has given great satisfaction to the
peoples party delegates here. The lead
ers agree that nothing could have been
more propitious for the peoples party's
hopes.
