The Navy Department is having hard
time In coming to a conclusion concerning
the award of the contract for the c0nstruc-
tion of a drydock at Port Orchard, Puget
Sound. The contract involves about half
million dollars, and the department is pro-
ceedng very slowly and cautiously. There
would be no difficulty in determining who
is the lowest bidder but for the offer of J..
p. NJ. Phillips of San Francisco, who
stipulated on his bid that 50 additional
must he paid for every shod pile used. A
Navy Department official said to-day that
that there was no way of determining how
many shod piles would be required until
they were actually driven. Mr.. Phillips
bid would be the lowest but for the proviso
lie makes concerning piles Mr.. Phillips is
now in the city.
Senator Squire came all the way from
Washington State in the interest of having
the contract awarded to home industry. two
Tacoma firms having submitted bids. The
Judge Acknowledgement says the contract
may not be awarded for nearly week yet,
and possibly longer.

HAMBURG'S LOSS.

Workmen Nearly Starving.
HAMBURG. Sept 2L-The present cholera
epidemic is carrying in its train such want
and suffering as have never before marked
the history of Hamburg Nearly all trades
are at standstll and thousands of work.
ingmen are idle and almost starving. Peo-
pie who have heretofore done business with
Hamburg are afraid now to handle any
thing made IN the plague-stricken city and
in consequence every branch of industry
shows the entire absence of orders.
OF course with no demand for their
products the manufacturers fud it impossi-
bic to keep employees at work and daily the
idle population of the city is gaining fresh
accessions from the ranks of clerks, arti-
sans and unskiiied laborers who are dis
charged because OF the utter stagnation in
business. The distress is most marked
among the dock aborers and fishermen.
The shipping trade of the city has received
a most severe blow from the epidemic, and
many vessels belonging to Hamburg have
been forced to lie up until the epidemic
abates. The dock laborers and other men
employed about the wharves can find moth
ing to do, and in many cases actual starva-
ton is staring them in the face. The fisher
men. too, find their occupation gone, as
nearly every one is afraid to touch fish, let

PauPs market and sold for a few marks to
farmers to be used as a fertilizer on their
lands. Many pOTters about the city are
without work and have been idle for a con-
siderable time.
Southeast of Hamburg and belonging TO
the city is a territory called Vierlande.
Here are located many persons who culti-
vate small tracts OF land and who have
heretofore found ready and prof table
market for their product in the city. Now
all is changed, and these market gardeners
are on the verge of ruin. They are unable
10 dispose OF their product and their fruit
is rotting on the trees.
The situation Is extremely bad In what
ever light 1t IS viewed. and succor for the
impoverished and famishing people will
have to come from the charitable.
There were 149 new cases of cholera and
si1ty-four deaths from the disease in Ham,
burg yesterday. an increase of eight new
cases and decrease OF three deaths. The
first ihstallment of the 80. 0C0 marks sub
scribed in New York for the relief OF the
sufferers was received to-day.
LISBON, Sept 21-It is stated that the

The Russians at Liberty to Seize All
San Francisco SchOOners.
ORDERS ISSUED FROM THE ALBiTROSS.
Captain DelebrOn Feared He Must Give Up the British
Vessels, but American Sealtrs Were Booked
for Siberia.
Special to THE MORNING CALL

VICTORIA, B. c.. Sept. 21.-Captain j. c.
Cox, President of the Sealers' Association,
when asked tonight what he thought OF the
action Uf the Russians in seizing some
schooners and allowing others TO go with
warning. said: II think, in the first place.
that the officers of the Zabiaka did net
know whether they were doing right or
wrong when they seized the Ariel, Rosie
Olsen end Willie MCGOWAN. When those
seizures were made Captain Delebron hesi-
tated before he decided to take the schoOE-
ers, and then he seemed to be at sea about
what he was doing. Very likely. upon re-
turning to port with the schooneTs
he had seized, the commander consulted
with other officials and it was decided not
to seize schooners found within reason
able distance of the shore. This seems all
the more likely. as the NJ. p. Hall, one of
the schOoners boarded by the Russians, was
within twenty-five miles of shore, while
those seized earlier were twice that far OUT
1t is known that Captain Delebron did not
know whether or not he had right to seize
the scho0ners, as he told the captain Of the
Majestic that lie thought it very likely that
he would have TO release the British schOOn-
ers, but was sure of the Americans. as the
captain OF the United States steamer Alba
tross had told him to seize all the sch0oners
he saw,

VICTORIA, B. c., Sept. 21.-The sealing
schOoners Victoria. May Ellen and c. Ii.
Tupper arrived here to-day from Berng
Sea. Captain Baker Of the Upper was
overhauled by the Russian cruiser Zabiaka
and forced to go on board her with his
papers. The arrogance of the Russian CAP
tain was unbesrable. He threatened to
seize the vessel and her cargo, but finally
concluded not to do so. He said If he caught
them again that he would take both schoon-
ers and skins. Captain DelebrOn declined
to say what waters the Russians laid claim
10, and Baker was gruffly told to never
mind the limit. Captain Delebron said he
had seized the Ariel, McGowan; Victoria
and three other Britshers, besides four
Americans The captain of the Tupper
says that he was sure that Delebron was
bent on seiZing any vessel that he could
make excuses for SO doing. The schooner

Sealers are generally pleased with the
situation, and it is thought that the schoon-
ers will be all right yet and that those
seized will be returned to their owners.

Million Dollars.

a santa re Train Wrecked to Steal \
Million Dollars.
KANSAS CITY, Sept. 21.-Passenger train
No. s, on the Atehison. Topeka aud Santa
Fe Railroad, esstboHud. was wrecked at 3
O'Clock this morning three miles west Of
Ossge City by train-robbeTs, who expected
10 plunder the express-csr Of 100000 in
currency that was being transported from
the City OF Mexico TO Boston for the Mexi-
can Central Railroad.
The wrecked train consisted Of the bag
gage, express and mail cars, two day
coaches, two ehaiT-cars and three sleepers.
It was thrown over an embankment three
feet high, and the first six cars were tel
eseoped.
-Four men killed and thirty-fve men,
women and children injured are the sad re-
suits Of the attempted robbery. The rob-
beFs stole tools from the section-house AT
Barclay, three miles west OF the scene Of
the wreck, and removed a hshpiate which
joined two rails together. They selected
the top Of grade, going up which the train
was likely 10 slow down, thus lessening
the chances Of so badly wTeckng the train
ss 70 bury beneath the debris the treasure
they were seeking. Their precautions were
unaVailing, as the very thing they sought
% avoid occurred.
When the train reached the spot the
engine left the track and most of the cars
followed II, piling one on top Of another and
making an awful wreck. The express-car
was buried so that il required two hours
digging TO get at it. Fortunately, although
the engine was at the bottom Of the pile, the
debris did not catch FIRE and thus an awful
horror was aYerted, as many of the injured
would in that event have perlShed before
the rescuers could reach them.
The engineer, fireman. eXDress-messenge
and guard were crushed to death in the
wreck. There were about $50 passengers
on the train, but not one of them was killed.
Several, however. were badly injured and
few may die The 81 1.000 600 was rescued
from the wreck by Major Llewellyn, live
stock agent of the Santa Fe road, who was
on the train, and turned over TO the Topeka
agent of the Wells Fargo Company. The
Santa Fe road has offered $1,000 reward for
the arrest OF the tTain-wreckers and several
posses are searching the country. A spot
was found where three men had lain con-
cesled IN the grass and tracks were dis
covered leading from this spot to the track.
The killed were Express Messenger Frank
Baxter of Kansas City, Express Guardian
BlO0menthal of Mexico, Fireman James
Cbaddlcks Of Topeka and Engineer Ed
Mayer of Topeka. Most of the injured
were Western people, but among the num-
Der was Mary Lyman of Bloomington, H.,
who is badly injured and bruised about the
head and face. c. I. Wordlaw Of Elliott,
H.. Is also badly bruised.
The passengers were taken to Topeka at
10 o'clock this morning. Some OF the
wounded could not be removed, and several
viii probably die.
