An Effort Made to Recover the Allegheny
Market House Shortage.
City Solicitor Elphinstone, of Allie
gheny, yesterday entered two suits in be-
half of the city against ex-Market Clerk
David Hastings and his bondsmen, G. w.
Day and w. B. More. The suits are to re-
cover a portion of the money Hastings is
alleged to have embezzled under his bond.
The first suit is brought to recover S741 II,
the amount Hastings is alleged to have ap-
propriated to his own use during 1889 from
the rents received from garden stands.
His term at that time was from
the first Monday in April, 1888,
to the first Monday of April, 1890, and his
bond was in the sum of 81, 900, with Day
and More assureties. The suit is brought
to recover judgment on that bond to be re-
leased on payment of S741 II with interest.
Hastings was reelected by Councils, his
next term of two years beginning the first
Monday of April, 1890. a second bond of
$1,000, with the same sureties, was given.
In that term, it is charged, he embezzled
S1,573 %, and the second suit is to recover
that amount. He was retired from office

ADRIFT AND HELPLESS AT SEA.
Disabled Steamer Breaks Loose and Is in
Dangerous Situation

LONDON, Feb. ia tug has arrived at
Crook Haven bringing report of an acci-
dent that threatens to have serious con-
sequences. The British steamer Sir Waiter
Raleigh, bound from Philadelphia for Fal-
mouth or Plymouth, arrived in Bantry Bay,
on the southwest coast of Ireland, Saturday
last with her shaft broken in two places. 1t
was impossible for her to make repairs
there, so the tug was engaged to convey her
to a port where she could find facilities to
repair the damage.
The tug started with steamer which had
been lying at Bear Haven, part of Bantry
Bay, but before they had proceeded far a
heavy gale sprang up. The steamship
plunged heavily, and finally the hawser
parted, leaving the steamer hel lpless The
wind and sea were rapidly increasing, and
it was finally decided that the tug must
seek shelter, so she stood away for Crook
Haven. The last seen of the Sir Walter
Raleigh she was drifting rapidly seaward.
Her officers and crew are aboard of her, and
it is hoped that with the assistance of her

POLITICS OF THE POPE
He Advises Frenchmen Not to Change
Their Form of Government

ne <AuNtSVs FIoHCnInen Not to Change
Their Form of Government
PARIS, Feb. 19.-The Catholic newspa-
pers here publish an encyciical letter from
the Pope addressed to the clergy. The Pope
declares any form of Government is good.
provided it tends to further the public well
fare, and that it is, therefore, the duty of
all to accept the legally established govern
ment and not attempt to change its form.
But it is necessary. he SAYS, to distinguish
between established powers and Legislation.
The former must be obeyed, but legislation
hostile to the religion of God cannot be ap-
proved. The Pope concludes by expressing
himself in favor of the maintenance of the
concordat, and urging the union of all
Frenchmen for the development of the great
ness of France.
