wife's head literally to pieces, Spiller took
aknife and cut her throat almost sever
ing what remained of the head from the
body. After he had killed his wife, he
turned upon his two children and despite
their wild, and almost incoherent APP
peals to be spared, he deliberately struck
them again and again with the hammer.

sIX sCOw MEN SAVED,
But There is Little Hope of the Webster or
Her Crew.

NEW YORK, Jan. 29.-Six of the men
and three of the scows belonging TO the
little fleet which on Tuesday drove out to
sea from Rockaway in the northwest hur-
ricrne, have been rescued. At noon yes
terday, sixty miles from Sandy Hook, the
tug Edgar Luckenbach came upon two
runaway boats heavy with ice and rolling
helplessly in an angry sea
Yesterday afternoon the same tug found
the third scow ninety miles away, and at
1920 o'clock this morning these linen,
saved from shocking fate by a narrow
chance, were landed at Atlantic basin.
Indeed, they had been found just in
time. Their little stock of provisions was
all gone. What shelter they had did not
protect them from the intense cold, the
hulls they were on were battered and
leaking. and under the steadily accumu-
lating ice were slowly sinking.
The men had given up hope Twice
they had been within mile of rescue and
twice had they been left with apparent
heartlessness to their fate.
They say that the last they saw of the
Webster and the other scow was Tuesday
afternoon Both were then further iu-
shore than No. IL and making very heavy
weather. The waves washed completely
over the tug and the men did not think
she could live an hour. The scow also

:" 1t is true that the Minister stipulated
that before accepting the mission he
should not be expected to serve the full
term.
Last year, when he could foresee the sue
cess of his negotiations regarding Ameri-
can pork, he placed the Office at the dis
posal OF the President in the undoubted
hope that nc would be relieved in the
spring, or at futhest i'm the summer But
he has since been charged with other ne
gotiations which are now under way, and
do not believe that he can quit his post
till they are concluded. He is still con-
fined TO the house"

His daily life is extremely simple. He
rises about six. says mass and then takes
a cup of cafe nOir. At two he dimes. which
means soup. some vegetables, or at rare
intervals fish. At 10 o'clock at night he
usually takes a bowl of broth and retires
at eleven. He never touches meat. He
drinks wine, but is very abstemious in its
use
When the weather is fine he walks in
the gardens of the Vatican for half TO
OF his writing himself, rarely employing
a secretary. He has no chronic malady of
any kind. except that of being 81 years of
age, and that causes him neither pain nor
trouble.

that noble Irishman very much just now.

that he is no longer persona grata TO our
