LONDON. Oct. "a furious gale is
prevailing on the Lancashire coast. and
it is feared much damage to shipping
and possibly loss of life may result.
The Norwegian ship Seine, which sailed
from Fleetwood for Sapelo in ballast
Saturday, encountered the storm in all
Its fury and was terribly butfeted by the
bowling wind and tremendous seas.
Inc vessel strained and labored through
the angry waves, and her sails were
split and torn away, until finally she be-
came entirely unmanageable, and 10 the
diSmay Of the officers and crew they
found that the ship was at the mercy OF
the wind and sea, and that she was in
imminent danger of being blown ashore
and smashed to pieces Oh the rocks.
Those Oh board of the Seine struggled
heroically to head the vessel out to sea,
but try as they might they could not
prevail against the elements, and the
ship
Driftei Ashore
this morning. The people in the vicin
lily had become aware of the Seine'S
perilous position, and large crowds anX-
iouSly watched the vessel as she was
tossed about helplessiy on the waters,
and she went ashore in full sight of
thousands of persons who had collected
alcng the beach on the pier at the place
where she struck. Those ON the pier
fed with great precipitation as the
vessel sailed by them, threatening to
smash into the structure with terrible
force. The ship finally became damned
in between the pier and stone break
water, breaking away the supports of
the pier by the terrific force OF the con-
tact, and destroying four shops which
were situated at the entrance to the
structure. The crowds rushed to the
spot as soon as the vessel struck the
rocks, aid efforts were al once made to
rescue the crew of eleven men. The
storm was still raging, and the scene as
the volunteers set out to the assistance
Of the
IEperi}ed Sailors
was one of intense excitement. At the
risk of their lives number of boatmen
put off from the pier, and. after deS-
perate battle with the waves, succeeded
in bringing ali the crew safely to dry
land, amid the plaudits of the watching
thousands. The vessel WAS badly dam
aged by the collision with the pier and
breakwater. and, being exposed 10 the
full fury Of the sea. Was bombarded by
the breakers and forced upon the break
water until she was torn apart and be-
came a complete wreck. The pier suf-
fered severely from its encounter with
the vessel, the framework being ex-
tensively smashed and torn away. The
loss to the structure is estimated at
$50 600.

TENNYsoN's FUNERAL.
Bishopof Winchester on the Poets
Place in Literature.

BISHOP OF Winchester on the POctS
Place in Literature.
LONDON, Oct. 9. The Prince of
Wales will represent the queen at the
funeral of TennysOn. Lord Salisbury
is expected to be among those present
at the poets interment. According to
promise the lord bishop of Winchester
preached the funeral sermon in the
Haslemere church today. He referred
to the dead laureate in eulOgistic and
feeling terms, and his remarks made
deep impression on the large crowd
that attended the services. In the
course of his sermon the bishop said:
Il would call the deceased poet an
English TheOcrltus rather than Virgil.
In his completeness he seems to me to
me to far surpass Wordsworth and to
almost match Shakespeare. He was as
strong as Byron without any of Byron's
cynical and arrogant disdain."
Pulpit references to Tennyson were
universal, and general throughout the
provinces. At Westminster Abbey
Canon Duckworth. and at Margarets,
Archdeacon Farrar, and at HasIemere.
the bishop of Winchester commented
upon the life and works of this, the
great son of England, and hosts of less
prominent clergymen paid less cOnspic-
nous tribute. The intent of all the ad-
dresses was the same. All were On the
purity, the kindness and good will of
the dead poet.

Death From Opium in
a Dive.
His Overcoat Missing, and No
Money Is Found on His
Person.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. 9.-Peter
GreiSsmer, real estate broker of Ia
coma, Was, died today at the Phila-
delphia hospital from the supposed eff
fleets of opium poisoning that it is be-
lieved was administered to HIM in a low
lodging house at 425 Spruce street yes
terday, morning. Greissmer has been
stopping at one of the leading hotels
heIe for the past eight or nine months.
lie told them at the hotel that he was a
real estate broker in Tacoma, and that
his visit here was upon business mat
ters. Greissmer seemed TO always have
plenty OF money, and made frequent
trips to adjacent cities. According to
the story told by himself at the hospital
before he died, he came back here on
Friday morning from one of his fire.
Quent trips and landed at Arch street
wharf. He says that he was met by
two men and induced TO enter cab,
and was taken TO the house at 425
Spruce street, where he was found
dying last night by the police. Thathe
was not taken directly there, however,
is shown by the docket of police mag
day for refusing to pay his cab fare. At
the time of his arrest for refusing to
pay the cabman he had as companion
a weil-known thief named hugh Nc
Dewitt. As Greissmer
Had no Money
at the time of his arrest he had to pawn
his watch to pay his fine. He lett the
station house accompanied by Nc
Dewitt, and was then probably taken to
the lodging house on Spruce street,
name of Fort He'll" According to his
story Greissmer has no recollection of
what took place there until Saturday
morning. He took breakfast Sunday
morning with McDevitt, his mistress,
a woman named Kate Eherling, and an
other woman. After breakfast he says
they gave him something to drink and
he lost consciousness almost immedi-
ately afterwards, and remembered moth
ing more until few minutes before IL
o'clack last night, shortly before the po-
lice came to the place. He was taken
to the hospital, where lie exhibited
strong symptoms OF opium poisoning,
complicated by indications of delirium
tremens. After telling his story Greiss-
mer became deliriOus, in which condl-
ton he remained until he died this aft
ernOon. When taken to the hospital
GreiSsmer'S Overcoat was missing. lie
had 10 money, although he said he had
considerable when he arrived here.
Two handbags he had with him disap-
peareti and the only thing left him was
a revolver. Until the c0roner'S inquest
is held tomorrow the exact cause OF the
mans death, whether from poisoning or
alcoholism, cannot lie determined. Nc
Dewitt and the Eberling woman were
held to await the cOroner's inquest.

THE SITUATION GRAVE.
Irish Farmers Are in a Bad Wayl
foc Winter.

fioc Winter.
LONDON, Oct. 9.-The Sunday Sun
publishes pesslmistic, not to say
alarmist. article on the prospects In Ire
land. 1t says that it refrained from
raising an alarm in regard to affairs in
Ireland at the time of the last genera
cutlery on that point because the matter
was then exaggerated. but now that the
danger Is actual, it cannot be longer
disguised that the agricultural outlook
for the winter is grave. That is the
true case in Ulster, as in the
South CT Ireland. In view of
this condition OF affairs the in
creased activity of evictorS becomes a
serious thing. The landlords cannot in
Justice be permitted to exact rent which
the people have not been able to extract
from the land. The people thus assailed
by the landlords and deserted by nature
ought to join together in Self-defenSe.
1t is expected that the Irish party will
shortly summon numerous conventions
throughout the country, at which the
best method of confronting this situa-
ton will be discussed. These confer
enceS ought to restore the old spirit OF
confidence and union, and to result in
burying or the quarrels of the past two
years. Redmond'S suggestion for the
release of the Paris fund ought to be
closed with. The Sun adds that it be-
lieyeS Heaiy and other leaders share
this view, and, this being Sd, there
ought to he no difficulty in having the
matter settled speedily and amicably 10y

HACKED IL HALVES.
A Chinaman Kills a Captain and
His Wife.

CHRIsTIANsAND. Oct. 9.-The repre-
sentative of the Associated Press in this
city has had an interview with Capt.
Larsen, of the Norwegian bark Thor
becke VI, which was boarded in lati-
tude 4 north by the mate and a portion
of the crew of the American bark Will
IAN Hales, the master OF which, Capt.
Buckley, and his wife, were murdered
by the Chinese cook, while the bark
was on voyage from New York
to Cape Town. Capt. Larsen
said the mate told him
that the murder was committed at
O'Clock in the morning, Sept. 4. The
bodies of the victims were hacked into
halves by the murderer. The murders
were committed in the cabin, and there
was no one TO prevent the Chinaman
giving his murderous instincts full
play. After he had killed the captain
and his wife the Chlnaman went on
deck and sprang over the rail into the
sea. An effort was made to save him,
but he went down before boat could
be lowered. Capt. Larsen advised the
mate to continue the voyage, which he
did, the William Hales having arrived
at Cape Town on Sept. "a. What the
Chinaman's motive was in killing Capt.
and Mrs. Buckley is not known.

CHECK FOR THE FRENCH.
They are Defeated by the Da-
hOmeyanS

ais.
PARIS, Oct. Cool Dodds, command
er of the French forces in Dahomey
operating against King Behanzi. has
telegraphed to the government fur
Their accounts of the state of affairs
prevailing in Dahomey and the
position of the French troops. Recently
Col. Dodds sent dispatches to the minis
ter Of marine giving details of desper-
ate battle which took place on Oct. 4
between his command and King Be
hanZi's warriors, including many
AmaZons. Col. DoddS related that
he had crossed the river Oueme
and was opening a road through
the forests surrounding Goede
where the fighting took place, the Da-
homeyans occupying a strong position
surrounded by thick brushwood. In his
last dispatches Col. Dodds says that the
French soldiers continued TO penetrate
the country. The Dahomeyans made a
desperate attempt on Maj. Gou-
The encounter took place near
the French camp. Reinforcements were
speedily sent to the assaulted soldiers,
which enabled them once again to re-
pulse the enemy with heavy loss. The
French lost four during the fighting.
Three OF the natives were killed
and twenty-five others of Benhan-
zin's followers fell wounded. Some
of the Dahomeyans were badly
injured. The warfare in Dahomey is
getting more serious every day. These
dispatches also say that the Dahomeyans
occupy strong position on the other
side of the river, and had strongly fortt-
fed the bridge between the two shores.
Mai. Gounard carried the bridge
at the point Of the bayonet.
1t was sanguinary engagement,
the native warriors contesting every
inch of ground and furiously resisting
every attempt of the French to disiodge
them. The enemy, however. were at
length forced to yield to the attacks of
the trained and better armed soldiers,
and sullenly retreated, leaving the dead
bodies OF large number of their CON-
panions, and many rifles on the field.
A French lieutenant was killed while
charging the ranks of the Dahomevans.
Another lieutenant of the name of Ro-
sano has died from the effects of wounds
which he received while toking part in
the battle of Oct. 4.
A telegram dated Oct 8 has also been
received from Col. Dodds, in which he
reports that he is now In such position
that he expects to soon make an attack
on King BehanZin's last point of de-
Tense. He says that the French troops
are very Jealous and are well supplied
with victuals and ammunition, and he is
confident of entirely routing the Da-
homeyan forces when the next engage
ment takes place.

RUIN IN RUSSIA.
Another Crop Faii,ire-No Rain in
Six Months.


ODESSA. Oct. 9.-There has been no
rain in South Russia for six months,
and most agricultural land has be-
come SO hard that all attempts to break
ii result in breaking the pillow. Win
ter wheat will be total failure
and revision Of the corn laws is GER
tain. Government matters are little bet
ter. The last harvest in the Caucasus
amounted to 12O,0900G0 pools. Many
people have applied for an extension OF
credit on mortgage loans. Should this
pot be granted, general ruin to the
class OF small farmers will be- certain.
LONDON. Oct. 9.-fhe Odessa CORE
spondent of the News says: The four
months drought in the south of Russia
has reduced the peasants 10 despair, and
they are now denouncing the govern
ment for resembling the decree which
prohibited the expectation of grain
from the empire. Applications
are being made by wholesale TO the
land banks Tor extensions of credit. The
government is becoming alive to the
seriousness of the situation, and has
ordered reduction in railway fares.
The only hopeful sign as regards the
prevention Of another famine is an
abundant harvest in the Caucasus. A
cattle plague is raydging the Don coun-
tYY.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.-There was no
change worthy Of note today in Mrs.

her suffering from that cause is less
severe. Her nights are moderately
comfortable. She sleeps for an hour or

she again tails asleep. The treatment
by massage with oil, which is applied
about 9 o'clock in the evening, is of n.i,-
