Part of the Side Wheel Broke Loose and
Crashed Into the Cabin.

Crasneu Into the CABIN.
The passengers aboard the ferryboat
Susquthanna, of the Erie ferry, were given
q eat score on one of the early after
noon trips yesterday. Shortly after she
eft her slip on this side, a continuous
humping sound was heard In the wheel
box on the north side. 1t sounded as
though the wheel had picked up log
and was whirling it around between the
paddles: Suddenly there was loud
crash followed by the tearing away of
several panels of the partition between
the wheelbox and the saloon, aud the
shattering of large mirror.
Many of the passengers rushed to the
forward and rear decks, believing that q
collision had occurred. The boat was
stepped and hasty inspection made of
the wheel The passengers were assured
there was no further danger and the boat
proceeded safely to the other SIDE
1t appears that one of the buckets or
paddles had in some manner become
luosened and swinging out of place was
sent crashing through the partition.

Explanation of His CommendatiOn of the
 Sentry LuecE.
 BERLIN, May 27.-The "Post," in an ''authoritative'' account of the recent sentry incident, denies that the Kaiser clinked glasses with Lueck and ad- dressed him familiarly.
 It says that Lueck was hustled and in- suited by three ruffaans;Ithat onelof them, Brandt, who was wanted by the police on a charge of manslaughter committed during the February riots. brsndished 6 knife; that Lueck warned them several times, and finally made an attempt to put them under arrest; that the ruf1ans then ran and Lueck thereupon fired at them with fatal result, and that Lueck was not promoted until i've weeks later, after Q careful inquiry had been made Into the facts of the case.
 The "Post's'' statement of the incl dent is accepted as placing the conduct of Kaiser Wilhelm in favorable light.

WOMEN WIN AT OMAHA.
Closing ssssion Of the Methodist Gensr
 Conferences.

OMAHA, Meb., May 27.-The last day's session of the Methodist Episcopal Quad renniAl Conference was presided over by Bishop Fitzgerald. The Sitting Com mittes had arranged an order of busi- ness burying the important committee reports.
 An attempt was made to take of the table the report of the Committee on Temporal Economy but it failed.
 The Conference ordered the Treasurer of the Missionary Fund to pay into the Episcopal Fund the amount of the Missionary Bishops salary.
 When the Committee on Revissls made it's report exceptions were taken to the report as offered by the Chairman, the claim being made that the paragraphs relating to the use of tobacco had been omitted without the knowledge of the Committee. The omissions were added and the report adopted.
 The Committee on the State of the Church in Relation to Organic Union of all Methodist Churches recommended that the bishops report 8 commission of three bishops, three laymen and three ministers to confer with like commits sions from other churches, which the bishops are asked to request-adopted.
 The Rocky Mountain 'tAdvocate' was made an official organ in the church, provided, however, that the book con cexn and church shall not be held liable for any loss.
 Any conference may adopt the paper for it's official organ.
 The "Advocate" asked a similar fran. chise and the committee so recommended. Elder Shank pledged himself to turn over all the profits above actual ex- pense of editors, etc., to the worn-out preachers in Nebraska.
 The Conference disposed of the woman question just before final adjournment. Dr. Hamilton offered an amendment to the report of the Committee on Judi ciary that the proposition be submitted to the annual conferences, requiring that the words ''must be male'' be inserted after the words Clay delegates, :" wherever they appeared in the discip- line, and that unless three-fourths of the annual conferences and two-thirds of the general conferences uphold it, then the law must be held to mean male and female both.
 The amendment was adopted by vote of 24l to 160. This sends the matter to the annual conferences, and the men must defeat the women two to one in order to keep them out of the next Gen eral Conference.

THE GAME DIDN'T WORK
Clever Scheme to Get a Pardon
 From Gov. Flower.
Hocus FOCUS AT CLINTON PRISON.

The Executive Asked to Sign His Name in
 Q slight-OF-Hand PerEOrmance-Suspeo
 ing Tricl, He Puts Down the warden's Name--A Tired Convict.
 ALBANY, May 27.-Gov. Flower, who has just returned from his visit to Clin- ton Prison, reports some lively and not altogether enjoyable experiences Nearly every prisoner in the institution was anxious to borrow the executive ear to pour into it his tale of woe.
 The Governor submitted his chin to the caresses of the prison barber, Wm. Dorsey, who is serving thirty year sentence, and in the midst of the op- eration was asked for a pardon, while the applicant juggled with his bit of steel in a suggestively ghastly manner. The Governor smiled benignly, but kept his mouth discreetly closed.
 During @ minstrel entertainment given by the prisoners for the Governors amusement, Salvatore de Giovanni, who is in for forgery, appeared As prestidi- gateur and announced 8 brand-new trick.
 He passed around what appeared to be Q little blank book, in which the leaves were held in the covers by straps run ming across the pages, and asked each member of the Governors party to sign. the Governor last of all. As the young man was in prison for . particularly clever piece of work the Governor re- sorted to Btratgem and instead of signinR his own name wrote that of Warden Thayer.
 After some artistic hocus pocus Saliva tor burned the slip of paper and locked another in a small box. When the box was unlocked and the paper extracted, the Governor readi
 "Salvatore Giovani, sentenced for the crime of forgery, is this day pardoned.
 (Signed) WARDEN THAYER."
 The prisoner was on his knees plead ing for pardon, but when he heard the name of Warden Thayer he looked ex- tremely tired.

wEIe4rY QUESTION FOR soLoNs.
Was Lillian Russell Justified in Refusing
 to Appear in Tights7


 to Appear in TiGhts3
 ALBANY, N. r., May 27.-The seven robed judges of the Court of Appeals, it they are at all antagonistic to the dis. play of female anatomy on the stage, have a chance to air their views on the subject.
 There has been argued, and is now be- fore them, the appeal of Lillian Russell, the actress, from 8 judgment in favor of James c. Duff, to restrain the fair appel lant from a threatened breaking of her engagement with MT. Duff, and to pre- vent her appearance at the Casino on the Casino stage with Q rival company in charge of Mir. Aronson.
 The story as presented in the briefs, on Ale with the Court of Appeals, shows that Miss Russell, in October, 1887, en- tered into an engagement with plaintiff for the seasons 16S7-S and 1889 at 8 salary of $500 week.
 It will be remembered that the opera to be given by the company was ''The Queen's Mate," in which she was re- quired to appear in tights.
 In her brief the defendant alleges that the wearing of tights was not objec- tionable to her during the summer season, but while in Chicago she con- tracted 8 cold and refused to appear in tights, for fear of further injuring her health.
 Apreliminary injunction was obtained, the defendant agreeing to pay $2,000 and costs in Hquidated damages should the final decision be against her, and she was permitted to join MT. Rudolph Aronson's company and appear at the Casino.
 The case will probably be decided be. fore the court finally adjourns.

His Attempt to Stir Up Sectarian Strife in Ireland DenOunced--A Strong Plea for the Immediate -Ueasing of the De- lnOralizing Strife.
 NEW YORK, May 27.-The Irish Ma tionalists' committee appointed by last November's conference to issue an ad- dress met yesterday at the Vanderbilt Hotel and approved strong manifesto demanding that the factional strife in Ireland shall cease or America and Aus tralia will not furnish sssinews of war. I" They call the conflict going on most scurrilous and declare that it has we'll nigh forfeited the confidence of Irishmen abroad, won by 12 years of dignified ef- fort for home rule under Parnel1's lead ership. The address goes on to say:
 IA desperate attempt is being made by Lord Salisbury and his colleagues to stir up sectarian strife in Ireland by de- Gberate misrepresentation of the aims and objects of the national movement. The best refutation of these misrepresen- tations is to be found in the fact that during the greater part of the present struggle Ireland had 8 Protestant leader and has to-day 8 majority of the repre- sentation from Ulster and many Protes-
 
 cies overwhelmingly Catholic. These are unanswerable arguments for homo rule, and proclaim to the world the falsehood of the calumny that the Irish people are bigots. If the present strife is continued the Nationalist majority in Ulster will be endangered and Ireland's s position morally weakened"
 In another place the manifesto says:
 '"The party of the men seeking to per- petuate factional strife in an hour of supreme national peril would be guilty of treason to Ireland, and would go down under the condemnation of the Irish race"
 The manifesto is signed by the follow ing: J. P. Farrell, New Haven; Thomas F. Keenan,, Boston; Dr. William Carroll, Philadelphia; John Devoy, Chicago; Jas. Gibson, Paterson, N. J.; J. P. Howard, Charles O'Donnell, Des Moines, Iowa; John M. Digney, White Plains, N. Y.; James R. O'Beirne, Michael Bresl1n, New York; Dr. J. W. Casey, Rochester, N. Y.; John King, Passaic, N. J.
 Dr. Carroll adds 8 postscript giving his reasons for joining in this movement against his own fixed belief "that no Irish Nationalist should swear allegi- ance to the British government or sit in 8 Parliament meeting outside of Ireland and assuming the right to legislate for Ireland n

BosroN, May 27.-In the Maverick Bank case, counsel for Asa P. Potter Jonas French and Thomas Dane have filed a printed reply to District Attorney Aliens brief in the United States Circuit Court. The replies are quite long and cite numerous authorities in support of the stand taken by counsel for defend ants. This ends the hearing on objec- tions to the indictments, whether in form or substance, in the United States District Court. Justice Nelson will un- doubtedly be some weeks in examina- tion of the theories and propositions ad- vanced by counsel and the inspection of the indictments in the case before he shall have arrived at his decision.

PUT POISON IN THE wHlskEY.
AJealous Woman of Cortland, N. N,
 Tries to Kill Her Former Lover.

AJealous Woman of Cortland, N. H.,
 Tries to Kill Her Former Lover. CORTLAND, N. Y., May 27.-The condi- tion of Duke Borthwick, formerly de- putty sheriff, and son of ex-Sheriff H. G. Borthwick, who was poisoned We'd nesday night, is still precarious, though he will probably recover. For the past year Borthwick has been paying great attention to Mrs. May Tarble, who has not lived with her husband for the past two years. Borthwlck appears to have tired of the woman, however, and when her attentions to him lately became both ersome, he avoided her.
 This neglect caused her much anguish, and she threatened to take his life. Borthwick thought little of her threats, and when they met would walk with her. They were seen together at about Il o'clock Wednesday night on one of the streets in Cortland. At midnight he left her and went home.
 At o'clock in the morning his mother was awakened by the sound of groans which issued from his room. She en- tered his chamber and, seeing that he was very sick, sent for Dr. Dana, who, upon examination, pronounced his pa tient to be suffering from poisoning He was kept walking the floor briskly all night and forenoon, and to this he will probably owe his life.
 Borthwick says the girl offered him whiskey, and that in drinking 1t he mo- ticed that it had 8 bitter taste. After nking two more glasses of the liquor offered he refused to drink any more. The doctor ascribed the bitter taste to morphine.
 No arrests have been made yet. Borth- wick's mother wants the girl arrested, as she fears another attempt on her son's life, while the father is trying to hush the matter up. Future action will prob ably depend upon the result of the case.
