will assist me-" and from what befeiI the
Umbria afterwards that was what the
Captain meant II he was a sensible man.
The Captain of the Gailia had no right
therefore 10 leave the Umbria until II was
Enthusiastically communicated to him by the
Captain OF the latter that he needed no
assistance from him. The passengers
aboard the Gallia gave the explanation
OF the event which they received at the
moment II occurred. Whoever has crossed
the ocean and Witnessed an event OF this
sort knows that as soon as the steam
ers part from each other the real facts
become known to the passengers. All the
passengers Of the Gallia say that the
Umbria signalled to the GaIIIa requesting
that steamer to stand by for twenty-four
hours, the Captain OF the Umbria stating
that the shaft would probably be re-
paired within that time. The Gallia
waited for three hours when her Captain
signalled to the Umbria that his vessel
had only sufficient coal on board to reach
Liverpool and thereupon steamed off.
Nothing could possibly be more repre-
hensihle than this act. Lying by for
twenty-four hours would cause very lit
tie or no consumption OF coal, and it was
his plain duty TO remain by the Umbria
until she was out Of peril and TO bring
her to New York If that was the only
way to give her succor. Taken all to-
gether the incident has very bad look,
of which the Cunard Steamship Com
pany should furnish some better explana-
ton than ii has yet given.

THE UMBRIA's MIsHAP.

The public has waited with great i'm
patience for an explanation promised by
the Cunard Steamship Company OF the
accident which befell the Umbria, and of
the reason why the Gallia, her sister ship,
and belonging to the same owners, failed
to render her any assistance. That official
explanation has now come, and il amounts
to very little explanation at all.
The Cunard Company states that when
Captain Ferguson of the Gallia approach
ed the Umbria, "he saw another steamer
lying in proximity to her. blowing off
steam; that the Umbria was lying like
a duck in the water, and formed per-
feet picture Of security while the Gallia
was rolling On reading the signal ques-
ton. SHAFT broken" Ferguson con-
suited with his chief engineer. The lat
ter officer was satisfied from the next
signal, Ready TO proceed tomorrow.
that the Umbria was in no danger ii
Is hard TO tell just what induced the COM
mander Of the Gallia to steam off on this
statement, whether Il was because IAN
other steamer lay in proximity to the
Umbria that was blowing off steam," or
whether it was that the Umbria 'fay
like duck in the water" perfect pic
ture of security" while "the Gallia. was
rolling" or whether 1t was that the chief
engineer was satisfied from the Umbria's
statement. "Wili be ready to proceed to-
morrow" but when all OF them are taken
together they offer no sort OF excuse to
the captain Of the Galiia for going on
Ready TO proceed tomorrow" might
very well mean Ready to proceed II you

The reports that Mr.. Cleveland had
made efforts in several States to influ-
ence the election Of Senators favorable
to himself is emphatically denied. A
special TO the New York Herald says
that Colonel Lamont has contradicted the
reports In the most decided manner, and
says:
ut is time that the friends Of Mr. Cleve-
land took some notice of this falsehood.
II is q falsehood, and was started with
malice. 1t has been taken up by opposi-
ton newspapers and has Travelled all over
the country. / can state authoritatively
that Mr.. Cleveland has not dictated, in
terfered. or even suggested the election
OF any one in the States in which there
are Democratic Legislatures and where
contests are being made One OF the
objects Of the charge, I presume, may
have been TO locate the force Of the
public objection which Mr.. Cleveland
made 10 the election of Mr.. Murphy from
this State. The impression sought to be
conveyed was that he was endeavoring
to dictate the personnel OF the Senate"

Tertiary. The warden OF that institution
was Democrat, however, and as he
recognized only MIR. John T.. Osborn, the
