SIXTY LIVES LOST

BY the Foundering of the Steamer Used
by the sultan OF Turkey for His Private
Pleasure - Details Suppressed - The
Death of Harclei Pasha.
CONSTANTISOPLE, via Vienna, April
6.-The steamer used by the sultan in
connection with the palace for his own
pleasure and to convey guests and
members of his household, foundered
on Sunday. It is believed that sixty
persons on board at the time persisted
by drowning, and that the splendid
service of silver plate, used in the i'm
perial dining room on the steamer,
went down with the vessel.
The censors are suppressing all re-
ports of the disaster to the palace
steamer and journals printing stories
of the calamity have been seized by
the authorities. An trade has been is
sued prohibiting newspapers from be-
ing published during the afternoon,
presumably in order to enable the cell
sors to enjoy their morning snoozes be-
fore having to undertake the task of
examining the proposed issues.
The publication of the fact of the ac.
cident caused a great sensation among
the populace and greatly incensed the
sultan. His majesty was further an
Harcki Pasha on the same day. The
horses attached to the carriage con-
veying Harcli Pasha ran away and
Harcki jumped from the carriage and
was instantly killed

Alexandria, were IT'S Egyptian men
and women destined for the Worlds
fair. They are in charge of George
Angelo, who has spent four months in
Egypt getting the party together. The
vessel rested at anchor near Bedloe's
island, and the Egyptians dressed in
their native costumes were on deck in
force. Dancing girls dressed in short
skirts and decorated from head to foot
with cheap finery gave exhibitions of
their agility on the quarter deck. Two
of the girls excel in the danse de ventre,
and they are to be drawing cards of the
projected show. A number of Arabs
and Turks are included in the party,
and there are wrestlers, gladiators and
fencers by the score. The Egyptians
brought along seven camels. twenty
donkeys, five cases of monkeys and q
lot of Arab horses.
The Bowie was a floating menagerie
when she came into port. She had
aboard a large collection of wild ami
mails for the fair The lot included two
elephants, seventeen lions, five tigers,
five leopards, twelve bears, twelve bye

also horses, zebras. sixteen cages Of

ROCHESTER, n. Y, April 6.-Tiny
Run;ck. aged 10 years, was arrested at
midnight Sunday night in the act of
breaking into safe in the Henry
Walh store, in the suburbs of this city.
Patrolman Aliens attention was at
tracted by sounds of pounding in the
store, and, breaking open the door, he
was greatly surprised to find, instead
of a burglar, a young girl standing in
front of the safe, holding a hammer,
with which she had been attempting to
break the com bination knob
A glance about the store revealed the
fact that the girl had been operating on
the cash drawer with a can-opener. The
child cried and begged the officer to let
her go as she had never done anything
of the kind before
Patrolman Allan took the child to
the home of her parents and Tuesday a
warrant was served.
Humane Agent Grout asked that she
placed that she be placed in the care of

ton of the case by the grand jury.
The case was adjourned.

There is little doubt that every soul

President Cleveland. Within that

factory to the people. The appoint

Morton, all ardent and well-informed
tariff reformers, indicates that a new
spirit is to dominate all the depart

Tariff reform is not a measure which
can stand by itself; to it must be Joined

reliant public policy, which is the best
possible assurance of peace and pros

Naturally the outlook for trusts and
com bines is anything but encouraging.
A trust is formed to limit domestic
competition, but what is the sense OF
limiting domestic competition when
reduction of the tariff will increase
foreign competition?
Trusts flourish most when the law,
the tariff law, shuts out all foreign
interlopers. Protected" on that side,
the monopolists organize a trust to con-
troll competition and advance prices at
home.
These so-called industrial stocks are
in fact trust stocks, stocks in compa-
les having monopolies more or less

democratic party intends to reform the
tariff not little bit here, and a little
bit elsewhere, but to reform it alto

the price of trust stocks than a dozen
antitrust bills like that drawn by Sem

The decline in the price of trust
stocks marks the advance in the pros

Charles e. Carter was recently re-

Carter has a remarkable history ard
just now his case is attracting consid-
cradle attention. Some seven or eight
years ago he was convicted in Law
renee county of the murder of a man
named Crockett A few days prior to
the date fixed for his execution he es-
capped from Jail by shooting and seri-
ously wounding the jailer. How he
secured pistol is unknown. He left
Missouri with all possible haste and
settled in Portland. Ore. and led an ex-
amplary life. In 1889, with a party of
four gold prospectors, he went up
the Yukon river, in Alaska, in a small
boat After innumerable hardships
and dangers the party left the river and
followed an Indian trail for many days.
They would have been robbed by In
dams had it not been for the personal
bravery of Carter. Two of the party
succumbed to the hardships and were
unable to travel Carter carried
them alternately on his back for
several days, until one of them
died. The other he helped along until
assistance was reached. The trip last

there until recently. when his
identity was discovered, and he was
brought back to Lawrence county.
The Oregon people refuse to believe
that he is a murderer and are making
desperate efforts to save his life. 1t is

show that Carter was not guilty of the
murder. Able counsel has been secured

Immense delegations are present

territories Old Mexico, the Sandwich
Islands and the semi-civilized Indian
tribes, converted to the Mormon faith,
all are represented, and the principal
dignitaries who have been laboring for
years past in various parts of Europe,
have all been called home to celebrate
what, to the Mormons, is the most mo-
mentous event in their history.
The building was turned over to the
authorities Wednesday, finished, and
the event was celebrated in a manner
that created decided surprise through.
out the city. Invitations were issued
to 500 prominent gentiles, including
the governor, judges of the supreme
bench, and other officials to view
the interior of the building
late Wednesday night. AS the
building had been for years
most zealously watched and every
thing connected with it was supposed
to be entirely secret, the invitations
created the utmost surprise. but they
were eagerly responded to. as this
would be the last opportunity non-Mor-
mons would have to obtain a glimpse
of the interior. The church authorities
decided to issue the invitations on &C.
count of the donations received for the
temple from some outsiders, and also
as a matter of courtesy. Besides, it is
the ordinances celebrated within the
walls which are secret, and, of course,
no inhling of them was given out.
Among those included in the invita-
tions were the tragedians Ward and
James. Everyone who visited the
building tell the most enthusiastic
stories of its gorgeousness-
The dedication services began at $50

not more than $500 people can

CLEvELAND'S ECONOMY.
The Good Work of Reform Is Going Stead

The Good Work of Reform Is Going Stead
lily On.
Mr.. Cleveland's policy of Kidding the
government of unnecessary officehold-
ers is one which cannot be too highly
commended The expense of pensions
is SO heavy that without the strictest
economy it will be impossible to make
an adequate reduction of the tariff,
and every hundred dollars now saved
by retrenchment in executive expenses
is so much gained to the people in pos
sibilities of tax reduction.
1t is appropriate that the work of re-
form should have been begun in the
department of agriculture. as it is
there that the largest sums of money
have been spent in salaries without
corresponding benefit to the people.
Secretary Morton has made a good be-
ginning, and he is likely to keep on
until he has relieved the people of the
alleged experts and scientists whose
greatest industry is shown in trying
not to- work themselves out of their
jobs.
But the department Of agriculture is
far from being the only one in which
retrenchment will be beneficial. Sec

ment, and it will no, doubt be pushed
in the departments Of war, of the
navy, of the interior and of justice.
The employees of the post Office DEPART
ment probably do more work for their
money than those of any other. yet
even in the post Office department it is
possible to retrench with advantage.
It Is not likely that when Mr.. Cleve-
land has made closer investigation
he. will confine retrenchment to the
government employees in Washington.

Philadelphia, in, Chicago in St. Louis,
in every other large city, it will be pos
sible to find men who can be spared
from the federal service to its distinct
advantage. even if their places are left

PERu's FOOT IN IT.

A United States Consulate Reported to
Have Been Invaded by a Mob while q
Squad of Peruvian Police stood BY
Without Interfering The Cunsular
saved.
WASHINGTON, April Minister John
Fl. Hicks cables the state department
from Lima, Peru, as follows:
LIAA. April g.
mob attacked Masonic lodge. sacked building
and burned fixtures In the street. Incidentally
United States consula tie was invaded; furnish
ings destroyed and acting consular agent shot
in foot. Archives saved intact. Squad OF Pc
ruvian police looked on while the mob per-
formed work without interference. The mail
brings the particulars. HICKS
The particulars in question which
are left to be supplied by mail appar-
where the outrage occurred, which un-
accounta bly, is missing. There is but
one consulate in Peru-that at Callao.
In this position Mr.. Aquillo j. Daugh-
erty. of Illinois. appointed during Mr..
Harrison's administration, June 2,
1890, stands on the record as consul.
There are under him six consular
agencies, the occupants of which posi-
tons are doubtless merchants of the
country who are paid by fees, and
these fees seem to be very small, mas
much as only two make any returns at
all to the department of fees collected,
and these returns are under 1925 a
year. Probably many of them are ma
tive Peruvians, though the names of
some of them indicate the contrary.
Whether the outrage complained of
occurred at one of the small agencies
or at Callao no one at the department
can determine from the telegram, but
inasmuch as it comes from Lima, the
impression prevails that the scene of
the outrage was one of the interior
points This impression is further
strengthened by the knowledge in
the department that in many
cases were the natives assault
the sub-consulates the trouble is
country represented, but to prejudice
and ill-feeling against the repre-
sentative personally. This is not an
uncommon occurrence in many other
parts of the world where the acts of a
mercantile consular agent are resented
by people who would respect the acts
of citizen of the United States duly
appointed to full consular position.
After consultation with President
Cleveland, Secretary Gresham yester-
day afternoon sent the following:
DEPARTMENT OF STATE, !
WASHINGTON. April 6. (
HICKS, Lima:-Protest against failure Of
thorities to afford protection to consula te and
If facts are well established ask expression Of
regret, prompt prosecution of the guilty par
ties, and reparatiOn for injury to American
property or person. GRESHAM.
It is believed at the department
that a satisfactory explanation of tho
affair will shortly be made.
