Arlantic's Victims.

/ LISBON. Oct 29.-The Anchor line
steamer Roumania. from Liverpool to
Bombay. which was wrecked yesterday
off Cape Carvonaire, is now breaking uI
and the cargo is being washed ashore
1t has been learned that out of total OF
122 persons, passengers and crew, on
board, only seven were saved. There are
no life saving appliances in the vicinity
of the wreck, and If there bad been it is
very doubtful If they could have been
used in the teeth of the gale blowing at
the time. 1t amounted almost to a hurri-
cane, and was accompanied by tre-
mendousiy high sea. Several bodies In
nearly nude condition have been washed
ashore, and the fact that they were un.-
clothed is taken to indicate that many
people on board were in their berths
when the steamer struck and had no
chance to save themselves. The sea is
still so high it is impossible to tell the
copdition of the wreck. but the fact that
much light cargo foated out of her and
came ashore would indicate that her
decks at least must be gone. So soon as
the news of the wreck spread, great
crowds Of people. many of them from
places considerable distance inland,
gathered along the shore and seized the
wreckage as it came to land. Two men
saw something In the water that they
thought would prove valuable prize.
They rushed into the surf to seize it, and
as they were about to grasp 1t, they were
picked up by receding wave and car
ried out into the deep water and drowned.

Died in the Surf.

LISBON, Oct. 2s.-The Anchor line
steamship Roumansa, Captain Young,
went ashore early yesterday morning at
the mouth of the Arnogea, near Penicle,
and 113 of the 122 persons on board were
lest. The Roumania left Liverpool last
Sunday for Bombay. She carried 90 pas
sengers, crew of 81 men, and a full
cargo of valuable merchandise. She ex
perienced heavy weather from early Mon
day morning. Tuesday she ran into O
furious storm. All her passengers were
ordered below, and were not allowed on
deck again till Wednesday at noon.
After few hours clear sailing the ROu-
mania rap into thick fog, in about 40
degrees north latitude. She proceeded
at half speed, and, it is supposed, well
out from the coast. A violent storm
came on after she bad been several hours
In the fog. When 1t struck her, the Rou-
mania was but few miles from shore.
The ship made little progress, and the
captain was unable to keep her bow to
the wind. She went on the rocks almost
without warning, for, up to the last few
minutes, the ships officers did not realize
their peril Heavy seas broke over the
ships deck. and many of the passengers,
who ran up from below in a panic, were
swept overheard and drowned.

lIiIwaukee's Fire.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Oct. 29.-The work
to day is one of relief and deYising plans
to succor the unfortunate people who lost
their homes by the fire. Churches and
public buildings have been thrown open
to accommodate them temporarily, while
every society and organization in the city
is maturing plans for immediate relief.
The candidates on one of the congress-
sional and county tickets started the sub
scrIptiops last night, while the fire was
yet raging, with cash contribution of
$4,000. At meeting of the chamber of
commerce a general relief committee was
organized this morning to forward the
work, and subscriptions began to pour in
from the citizens who were in attendance.
EXTENT OF THE SUFFERING.
An accurate count 10 night shows there
were 465 buildings burned and 365 fami
lies rendered homeless. Residents of the
ward familiar with its population say the
families will average seven persons each.
1t is q conservative estimate to say $500
persons are homeless. AS most of their
buildings were uninsured, these people
have met with almost total loss and are
distitute. The business district devas-
tated is an important one, embracing
many wholesale houses. The total loss
by the fire is now estimated at about 3d.
100000, with an insurance of about
So, 900, divided among about 175
companies.

Millions In smoke.

MILWAUKEE, Oct. 2S.-Thls city was
visited tonight by the most devastating
fire in the city's history. -Four lives are
certainly lost, and possibly more. Con-
servat;ye insurance men estimate the loss
at not less than $6.OOO,OOO. The flames,
which started in the Union Oil Com
pany's building on East Water street,
near Detroit street, were tanned by a
furious gale which swept eastward to-
ward the Menomipee river. Nothing
could stay their resistiess rush. Dyna-
mite was used, but without effect.
Mighty bilIows of flame swept over
blocks of buildings, jumped across streets
and eaped over the river. Thousands OF
people viewed the grand spectacle. All
sorts of conveyances were burrying about
the third ward, loaded with the belong
iDgs of people on whose homes the flames
were rushing The entire fire depart
ment was powerless. Chicago, Racine
and other cities were appealed to for as
sistance, and by 10 O'clock engines and
firemen from out of town were beginning
to arrive. More than II blocks of solid
territory, including much of the most>ex
tensive wholesale district, has been
burned over Nearly 70 buildings, two
thirds of which were frame residences,
have iaded into smoke as fast as tissue
paper.

Both Brothers Dead.

CARSON, New, Oct. 31-The two
Hodgkinson brothers now lie in the
morgue, one the victim of heart disease,
the other of suicide. Sam. while on his
way to the Nevada state prison, yester
day, where he is employed as guard,
dropped dead in the road. HIS brother,
Tom, in the evening, viewed the remains
and went to his lodging house. About
$50 he walked out to the gate, saying
good-by to the lady of the house and
then drew a six shooter and fired ball
into bis head. Death was instantaneous.
Tom was out of work, and this, coupled
with bis brothers death, is supposed to
be the cause OF his dependency.

CHICAGO, Nov. About 1 80 this
morning fire was discovered in the new
building OF the Chicago Athletic Associa-
ton on Michigan avenue, near Madison
street. Owing to the fact that the build
ing was still without roof, and con-,
tanned large quantities of building mate
rial, the fire spread rapsdly, and at Q
o'clock had igni,ed the large 10-story
building of the Chicago Bank Note Com
pany and the st. Bernard hotel, adjoining
on the north and west respectively. Good
headway is now beng made against the
flames, and the iast-named structure may
be saved from total destruction. The
guests of the St. Bernard hotel had suffi-
cient warning to make their escape, hnr-
riedlY dressed with their valuables and
effects. The fire is the worst experienced
in this city for two or three years. The
fire was not under control at 2.15 A. NJ.
The walls of the Athletic club building
have fallen, and the panorama of the
Chicago fire, adjoining it on the south,
has caught fire and will be destroyed.

smallpox i'm CoquIlIe.

MARsHFIELD, Or, Oct. 29.-About 8
week ago, Mr.. McKeon died in Coquille
City with what was supposed to be
measles, complicated with poison oak
A short time after his death, Eleven Briz,
zee, who had been taking care of him
was taken down with the same symptoms
After two or three days illness the erup
tion appeared and now, four days after
the appearance OF the eruption, 1t is pro
noupced smallpox. Two ladies who vlsi-
ted McKeon also have the initial eymp-
tome. and 1t is feared the disease will de-
velop. Much alarm is felt, as no suspic-
ion of smallpox attended the first case
and very many people were exposed.

miners, drilled into hole where an uu.
exploded shot remained. The giant

accident was the result of the negligence
of the injured parties.

A Cabinet Place for wizard.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S.-In to-day's
issue of the New York Sun, the organ
supporting Cleveland for president, it
was stated that Henry Willard will be
assigned 70 the position of secretary of
the interior under the new administration.
This Is considered likely by number of
other papers In New York, also. MIR.
Wizards enterprise, the Northern Pacific
railroad, has received good many un-
favorable decisions by the interior de-
psrtment under Harrison, whose ap-
poig tees almost invariably decide in favor
of the settlers and against the company.
To view of this fact, it is more than likely
that this place will receive very favorable
consideration from Mr.. Willard, who will
then control matters himself.

wreck OF the Roumania.

PEN1scHE, Portugal, Oct. 31-The
heavy sea still running makes it impos-
sible to approach the wrecked steamer
Roumania. The steamer is broken in
half, and the bow and stern only can be
seen. The wreck is only 300 feet from
the shore. 1t is hoped when the sea goes
down more bodies will be found on the
wreck, SO they may be given burial on
land. A strict watch Is kept along the
coast by cavalrymen to prevent pillagine
the bodies. There is no doubt the cloth
ing was stolen from the bodies washed
ashore before the guards arrived.

Too Much Lynch Law,

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 28-Gov, North
ern, il his annual message to the legisla
ture. takes grounds against the crime of
lynching. He alludes to cases where
persons in custody of the sheriff have
been captured and killed by lawless as
sem blages. He recommends the enact
ment of laws to clearly define the duties
of sheriffs, which will include the sum-
moning of posses when necessary to as
sist them in arresting and holding vic.
lators of the peace; also the passage of
laws inflicting penalties upon persons
who refuse to assist the sheriffs when
called upon.
