DISASTER AT BORDEAUX.

A Ship Blows Up AND Results In Heavy Loss
of Life.
BORDEAUX, June 14.-An appalling acct
dent occurred today Just outside the har-
bar OF Blaye, on the river Girondo, four
teen miles northeast of this city. Lying
off the harbor was the British steamer
PetrOlia, commanded by Captain Hub
back, which had arrived June u from
Philadelphia. Suddenly there was a flash,
a tremendous roar and the vessel was APP
parentiy blown to pieces. Huge frag-
ments Of deck and deck houses were car
ried upward to a great hight.
Burning oil was floating on the water.
This drIted with the tide and floating
against several vessels lying at anchor
near by set them on fire. Two or three
other vessels were ignited by burning oil
which fell on the bows or rigging. The
Petrolia was soon burning furiously and
the heat was so intense that it was dan
gerous for small boats to approach near
TO her. Volumes of sitting black smoke
hung over and around the steamer Some
of the more venturesome of
the boatmen, hearing cries for
help. rowed as closely as possible TO the
Patrolia. They succeeded In picking up
sixteen OF her crew, three of her en-
glneers and the second officer. Some of
the rescued men were severely burned.
They were taken ashore ss rapidly as pos
sible and physicians were summoned to
| attend them.
The survivors said that there we're
twenty others on board the vessel when
| the explosion occurred, and another
search was made in the vicinity of the
burning ship in the hone of saving more
| lives. but not body was found. and it is
believed that every one of these twenty
men persisted.

storm. Water WAS swept over the new bridge,
227 feet long, and waves rose twelve feet high.
The scene at the seheol house after
the wreck was full OF agony. The
news here spread and parents ran to lhe
scene TO look for their children. The living
were found huddled together in mortal terror;
the wounded were grooming and shriekiuC; the
dead were stretched out forever silent aud the
lamentations of parents mingled with the
manned and helpless children. In addition to
the loss of life, a vast amount of property was
destroyed by the storm. Ii is estimated that
the loss OF property will be $4,000.

place. 1t was the worst storm ever
known in the vicinity. Hail stones
were fully as large as hens eggs. many of them

great extent. Many fine farms came within
the storm center, winch was ABOUT one nile

He Commits an Atrocious Crime on
His Wife While Drunk.

BUFFALO n. Y, June 15-William Baird. a
printer. frenzied with drink, perpetrated q
most atrocious crime upon his wife today,
which in some communities would have war
rantsd his swinging from the limb Of the
nearest tree before night fall. The story, as
far as the details permit of publication in a de-
cent newspaper, are that Baird came home
drunk this morning and went TO bed. During
the night he assaulted his wife so viciously
with his hands that her nRonizng screams
flooded the neighborhood. Those who came TO
the house found her suffering maadening pain
and bleeding profusely. Medical attendance
staunched the hemerrhage and revealed the
fact that her brute husband had torn and dis
placed the uterus. The woman will die or be
a confirmed invalid all her life. The coroner
succeeded in getting ante mOrten statement
from her Ia which she charged her husband di-
reotly with the crime. Tonight she Is alive
and resting under opiates. The police arrested

MILLION DOLLAR FIRE.
Baltimore Experiences One OF the
Greatest in Her History.

BALTIMORE, June 14.-One OF the largest
fires that ever visited the water front
of Baltimore started few minutes after
o'clock this afternoon on the old Bay line
wharf, at the foot of Union dock. The
loss, as near as can be estimated, is nearly
100000. II was just the busiest time OF
day and steamers, schooners and tugs
were plying the river in all directions.
The fine old Bay line steamer Virginia was
anchored at the wharf and the freight
steamer CASTOR was beside her. A four
masted schooner belonging to the Cochran
Oler ice company was close to the right
side OF the wharf. The freight shed OF the
Bay line company was stocked with cotton,
whisky and general merchandise, con-
signed to foreign tirme. The fire IS
thought to have originated in the cotton
by spontaneous combustion. Quick as a
flash the flames spread, Intense excite
ment reignsd along the entire water front.
The Bay line wharf Was totally destroyed.
1t was about five hundred feet long and
200 feet water front. The wharf had on
it a large Warehouse. brick laundry and
a newly-erected Office building. Before
the schooner Carolina and the GastSR
could be towed from the wharf they wero
badly damaged.
Lying in Cochran 0lers's wharf, just
southwest of the burning pier, were the
fine four m asted ice schOoners, Wesley
0ler, Mamo Howard and William Wirl.
The flames caught the rigging of the Oler
and then the other echooners, eating at
the mats and the sails. Tugs were quick
ly on hand and towed the burning vessels
to safety. The streams from the tugs
were turned upon the schooners and the
flames were quickly conquered, but not
until considerable damage was done.
Other Echooners were damaged.

ST. ROSE, Que, June 15.-The pretty
lettle village of St. Rose, fashionable
summer resort near Montreal. was the
scene OF a frightful catastrophe yesterday
afternoon. As the village is out OF the
way and telegraphic communication was
shut off nothing was known of it until to-
day.
Shortly after o'clock the residents of
ST. Rose noticed the darkened clouds
gathering on the horizon. Suddenly there
was a low, sullen roar, and in the twinkling
of an eye the light of day was changed
into the blackness of plight.
With hardly a warning a terrible cyclone
struck the village, carrying everything be-
fore it. Houses were carried away; huge
trees we're torn from their very roots ami
mails were literally carried away by the
wind and deposited in fields acres distant.
But a still more terrible scene was in
store for the frightened inhabitants.
The storms Havoc Mt the School
Two miles from the village was q school.
Here twenty-five children were being
taught by their young teacher, Miss La
caisse. While teacher and scholars were
intent upon their lessons, IL suddenly be-
came pitch dark. In moment the
nitiless cyclone had struck the small
wooden school house, tearing it to pieces
like a matchbox. The little students
were scattered like leaves and
Miss Iacaisse received blow
ON the head which stunned her, and she was
found Ia the ruins of the building. She re-
ceived serious injuries about the head and
spine and her chances OF recovery are oonsla-
erad doubtful. The children were carried IN
ali directions by the wind and In some cases
set down in adjacent fields, yards from the
school-house. Out of the twenty-five children
two OF them were dead when found, one died
shortly after. twelve are seriously wounded
and the remainder are more or less wounded
The killed are:

the damage was less than farther north
1t was in the Free methodist church that
most OF those injured were hurt This
old building is in the southern part OF

son, Mr.. and Mrs. Albert Erickson. George
Erickson, Hudah Carlson, MIR. and Mrs.

son were not quick enough and
were either buried in the debris
or stricken by flying timbers. Albert
Erickson, although injured, returned to
the church and rescued his brother
George, who was buried under mass OF
rubbish. and would have soon been
smothered. The edifce was reduced to
kindling wood. A large crowd soon as
sembled and assisted in the work OF
rescue. Mrs. Gust Johnson, whose hus-
band was badly injured, had a thrilling
experience. When the storm was near

stricken down. The only part OF the
house left standing was the wall, close 10
which Mrs. Johnsoo was lying. When
found she was unconscious from fright.

from the rural districts had painful ex-

young husband wrote his own name and
his wife's Oh separate lines Of the hotel
register, and the purblind clerk assigned
them to separate rooms. Each waited for
the other to set the matter straight, but il
was only after a terribly lonesome hour
that the bride plucked up her courage and
her marriage certificate and descended to
interview the clerk. She held out the
document mutely. and the situation at
last dawned upon him. The banlshed
benedict was summoned from his seelu-
sion. and the curtain fell amid profuso

CLEVELAND, June l5.-There was e
highly dramatic scene at st. Stanislaus
church last night, when Bishop Horst
man denied the rites of the sacrament TO
nearly the entire congregation. There
has been serious trouble in the church
for two weeks, eliminating with . riot
Saturday and numerous fights Sunday
and Monday. The bishop has been out
of the city. When he returned he at
once GENT the congregation word that he
would address them last night. The
church was jammed with people. Alter
stating 10 the members that no power on
earth could remove Father Rozinski. the
pastor, who is Objectionable to faction,
the bishop extended his hands over the
heads of the congregation and in a deeply
tragic voice ordered the congregation to

said Il hereby deny the right OF sacra-
ment TO all members of this congregation
who have participated in these ungodly
actions until they shall make public con-
fession of their repentance at regular
services before this congregation" This
temporarily accommodates at least 500
members.
