The weather was very rough. A south

which prevented a systematic search being
made. The seas were high and it would
have been impossible TO have seen the
wreck unless the tugs accidentally ran
onto it. Capt. Libby said that he saw
large number of fur seals off the cape.

This story

PITrsBuRG, Pa, Sept. 14.--Onc OF the
| most despicable schemes of which a man
| can be guilty was laid bare in the local
pension office in the Federal buildinp
Tuesday.
A pension attorney has been urging
old Union soldiers to organize in order
to assassinate President Cleveland and
Secretary Hoke Smith of the Dcpart-
mcnt of the Interior.
The man is reported to be of sound
mind, but in the light Of his Infamous
scheme, his reputation on that point is
likely to need Investigation.
The pension attorney has been engaged
at Secretary Smiths endcavor to make
pension lists rolls of honor. He saws it
is an attempt to starvc old soldiers and
that the only way to stop it is to assas-
slnate the President and Secretary.
The Pension Attorney is not a Pitts
burger, 1t is said, although his identity
is kept secret for the present.
The entire matter was reported to
Washington and will be investigated by
the authorities.
The foolish attorney has made himself
liable to charges of melting to treason.

BIONSTER DIAMOND
1t Is the Largest ana is valued

WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. 1O.-Onc OF
the most popular curiosities at the
Worlds Fair is diamond valued at
100000. The State department has
received the information of the finding
of a diamond worth ST 900, 900. This
news is sent by Consular Agent Land
graf, at Blocmfontein in the Orange Free
State.
Great excitement" Mr.. Landgraf
writes, has prevailed here for the last
week. A diamond of 97l karats, valued
at 100000 ($1,0OO, ,OOO), has been
found in the Yagcrsfontein Diamond
NINE. The stone is 312 inches long, 2l3
inches broad and III inches thick. 1t is
supposed to be one of the largest dia-
tnonds III the world. a new mine has
been discovered about nine miles from
Bloemfontein, and a company will soon
bt organized to work it. 1t is a pity
that none OF the American capita aiists
can be found to start an exploration
company IN this country. There are
numbers OF dormant mines, and conces-
slons may be had on the most advan-
tageous terms. The capital REQUIRED is
very small as the exploring can be done
by boring. The English are at present
dong all the speculation. Wherever a
new mine is found English capital is sure

theless there is wide field for further
