REPEALERS GAVE IN.
THE SILVER SENATORS TOO LONG
 MINDED FOR THEM.

By Holding the Senate In Continuous sss-
 sion voerhees Hoped to Force a Vote on
 the Repeal Bill, but When He Lost His
 Quorum He Moved an Adjournment
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-For the first time since the beginning of this special session of congress the people of Washington and the many visitors to the national capital had an opportunity to witness 8 night ses- sion of the senate. They improved their opportunity to the full, and as 8 result the entire wing of the capitol occupied by the senate was filled with a great throng of people, representing all classes and con- ditions.
 The galleries were filled to their utmost capacity early in the evening, and around each of the entrances crowds of people stood patiently waiting for hours to slip into the places vacated by the earlier com CTS, or at least get a glimpse over the heads of the occupants of the galleries into the senate chamber itself.
 MT. Allen was occupying the floor when, at sos p. m., MT. Dubois rose and by his leave suggested that it was past the hour when the senator from Indiana (Mr Voor- hees) usually made a motion to adjourn. He asked that senator whether he desired to submit that motion.
 'I feel it my highest duty" said MT. Voorhees,, mot to make that motion this evening, but, on the contrary, to ask the senate to sit ill continuous session until the pending measure is disposed of"
 At 2;20 Allen still held the floor, having spoken for over nine hours.

Wreck of thn yXonokan.

BUFFALO, Oct. 17-Thirteen more vic tims have been added to the already long list of fatalities from the terrific northwest gale that swept the great lakes Saturday and Sunday last. It is now definitely known that the steamer Wocoken, from Cleveland, foundered in 10 fathoms of wa- ter just above Long point, on the northern coast of Lake Erie, in the recent storm, carrying down with her all but three of her crew. The list of those drowned Is as fol- lows:
 Albert Meswald, captain, Marine City.
 Miss Sarah Meswald, his sister.
 Captain Jehn Mitchell, Cleveland
 Captain David Jones, first mate, Cleve- land.
 Matthew Hasler, second engineer, Ma rine City,
 Michael Hinkleman, chief engineer, Cleveland.
 Charles Minard, steward, Marine City.
 Henry Branch, watchman, Marine City.
 John Hinkleman, fireman, Marine City.
 George Smith, fireman, Marine City.
 Edmund Eldredge, watchman, Marine City. ..e
 Mike Kenny, deck hand, Marine City.
 William Eachl, wheelman, Marine City.
 Those saved are J. P. Saph, second mate; Robert Crowding, deckhand, and J. H. | ftlCe, Wneel1ndu, SleNtiduu.
 The last few weeks of the navigation sea- son of 1898 will live long in the memory of the lake mariners, for no such awful list of fatalities has been known in shipping cir cles for decade as the one to which addi- tions are being made daily, as reports come in giving details of the terrific gale that swept the inland seas steadily for more than 48 hours at the close of last week The story of the fate of the Dean Rich mond, in Lake Erie and the Minnehaha, in Lake Michigan, is supplemented by the news of the loss of one or two lives from a number of vessels composing the lake fleet, and now comes the loss of the Wocoken, with its cargo of human souls.
 It is too early to attempt to estimate the money loss by the sinking of small craft at various points in the chain of the great lakes from Duluth to the mouth of the St Lawrence. All incoming vessels are minus part of their rigging, are badly stove in, or otherwise show marks of their terrible ex- perience with the wind and heavy seas.

HUNGRY MEN BECOME DESPERATE

Carl junction Standard.
The following incident is related to
us by entirely reliable parties, which
shows to some extent the condition of
affairs where it TRANSFERRED: A strik-
ing coal miner walked into grocery
store in Weir City Has, and asked for
sack OF flour; the clerk asked him if
he had the money to pay for it.; the
man said he had no, the clerk told him
he had orders not TO let him have any
more goods on credit the man turned
away and with bowed head as If seri-
ously revolving something in his mind
when he quickly stepped to a stack
of -four, picked up sack and walked
out with it. A warrant was at once
sworn on. for his arrest and placed in
hands of a constable TO execute. He
went to the mans house, but the sight
that met his eyes beggars description.
There lay the sackiof flour in the mid
die of the floor with "a swarm OF half
starved children clustered around IT.,
eating it raw. The officer told the
man he had come to arrest him for
stealing; the man said he did not steal
the -four, hut simply took it and
would pay for it when he got work.
The officer went back, laid the papers
down and declared he would resign
his commission before he would exc
cute the order.

To tie people Of Barter Springs and
the Surrounding country:
We offer the following explanation
for not being present at date an
nounced for camp meeting: A mis-
take in dates, miss in the mail and
slow telegram caused all the trouble.
While anXiously awaiting the tele-
gram which should have reached here
ut noon, another, as important, from
hundred miles away stating that the
thrashers had come and no provision
could he made for storage OF grain
was responded 10, after deciding that
the ladies had not accepted the last
offer as a substitute. We regret the
disappointment, hut have suffered far
more ut the hands of those who have
telegraphed us to come a distance of
1000 miles, and when we landed in
the city was informed that they had
telegraphed us to come at later date or
at some future time, not sending the
telegram until we were half way
there. Only few months since l paid
visit to city in Nebraska at the ur-
gent solicitation of the w. G. L. u.
ladies. 1 arrived in the evening and
found no appointment, the ladies hav-
ing made q mistake in the month and
sent a date one month ahead. The
trip cost $3.50.
Let us he patient under such errors,
for the principle we are working for
is much greater and more important.
We crave pardon for the unintentional
disappointment to the good people OF

future we can serve you we will make
