The Olneyville tribune. (Providence, R.I.) 1893-189?, 1893-11-11

ALTHOUGH this season has been re-
markable for meteorological disturb
anccs, it was not till the days began
TO draw in that it began 10 be stained
with disasters The gale which tore
across the country and even wrcnched
the Atlantic left fearful trail OF
shipwreck behind it. One OF the
worst disasters in the history OF the
lake marine was the breaking up OF
the steamship Dean Richmond off
Dunkirk, Lake Erie. IL sight of
the shore-light the boat went down
with eighteen aboard. While SYM
pathizing with the salt sailor we are
too often forgetful Of the danger con-
frontcd by the poor fellows who
brave the lakes at this season OF
the year. That is because we do not
understand that these comparatively
narrow and shallow waters, answer
ing tremendously the least tempest
and allowing little sca-roOm for the
impcrilcd feet hide dangers unknown
on the high seas Lake Eric, which
destroyed the Dean Richmond, is
especially trcachcrOuS with its shall
low formation and its reef blocked
shore. The indifference OF Western
people to the lake marine is reflected
by the National Government. The
lake mariner, useful as he is TO the
prosperity OF the country, is prac-
tically deserted by the Treasury De-
partment TO the scant mercy OF un-
guarded shores. 1t is discrcdltablc
to our system Of coast protection
that the crew OF the Dean Richmond
should have been permitted TO perish
when in sight OF land and only a few
miles from two important lake ports.

TOOK EVERY DOLLAR.
The Treasurer of Warren County,
Indiana, Loots the Treasury
and Departs.
Not q Dollar Left in the Treas.
ury, at Least $4,000
Being Taken.

ATTIcA, Ind, Jan. %. - August
CronIzhite, treasurer of Warren county,
is a defaulter in the sum of at least
$4,000. The actual amount of Cronk-
hite'S steal Is not definitely known, as
the expert accountants will not be
through their work until day after
tomorrow. Cronkhite was in the
habit of receiving money from
heavy taxpayers and not en-
terlng the same on his receipt book, al
though giving receipts to the parties
who paid the money. The required pub
LEGATION of the delinquent list this week
precipitated matters. and Cronkhite left
Oh Friday night. He left note to his
bondsmen, telling them that he was
afraid to face the music. A meeting of
his bondsmen was held OH Saturday, and
it was found that the treasury did
not contain dollar. At least one
half of his bond5men, thirty IN all, will
be ruined by the theft. Before going
away Cronkhite tried to discount some
paper at the Farmers and Merchants
Bank of Attica, but failed. The alb
sconding treasurer owns about S32, 900
worth of property, but it is mortgaged
for $4,000. Cronkhite was elected
treasurer in 1888 and reelected in 1890.
His present term of Office would expire
III August next.

SCHOCH'S sCORCHED.
The Big Grocery Block Dam
aged by Fire and
Water.
Loss Somewhere about $780,
900, Fully In
Sured.

At 12:45 this morning smoke was seen
issuing from the rear door OF the An
drew SchOch Grocery company, at TIL
corner of Seventh street and Broadway.
Patr0lman Perro turned in an alarm,
and as soon as Chief Jackson arrived
a general alarm was sent in.
The fire is supposed to have
started in the basement at the bottom
of the freight elevator shaft in the rear
of the building. The flames rushed up
the elevator, and in fifteen minutes the
store rooms, which occupied the
fourth and part of II the fifth
floors, were mass of flames.
The floors mentioned were stored with
an assortment of canned goods and
fancy groceries, and burned like finder.
The tiremen worked with a Will, and
soon had six streams OF water pouring
into the upper stories of the building
The water tower was the right thing Ill
the right place. and but for this the
building would have been Quilted. At 2
o'clock the flames were under control,
and while tile fifth and fourth floors
were burned out, the fire was confined
to these two stories.
The grocery company occupied the
first, fourth and fifth floors, and the
second and third floors were occupied
by building society offices. The offices
were flooded with water, but the con-
tents were not materially damaged.
Andrew Schoch said the stock was
valued at about S27, 900. and the loss, he
thought, would be about two-thirds of
that amount. The insurance on the
stock was $4,000, nearly all i'll foreign
companies, and the greater part in
companies represented. by II. b. Con-
stans The building was insured for
$4,000 The insurance, he said, would
cover all losses.

FAMOUS SECTION 80.
The Homestead Contestants and
the Minnesota Iron Company
Victorious.
An Appeal to Be Taken, and It
May Take Five Years to
Settle 1t.
Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe.
DULUTH, Jan. 23.-The register and
receiver of the local land Office have
decided the famous section 80. involy
ing title to immensely valuable iron
property in favor of the homestead con-
testants, William Alden and Hoghton
E. James, for four Of the forties in con-
troversy in that section of township
6S-11 W. The successful con-
testant for the other forty is
the Minnesota Iron company.
The first two claimed to be the first to
file their applications at the land office
when the lands were thrown open to
settlement. arguing that when Seere
tary Villas signed the order destroying
the validity of the Sioux half-breed
scrip of Merritt IL Eaton the lands be-
came subject to entry es estanti. They
have been upheld in this by the local
land officers. The other forty by Charles
p. Wheeler's scrip were not covered by
their application. Wbeeler's papers
and Emil Hartmann's (Germania Iron
company were filed on the memorable
23d of February, 1889, when the letter
containing the secretary'S decision was
received and the great rush for first
place was made. At that time Hart
mann's papers were declared to be
the first by the then register and
receiver; but the present officers have
decided in favor of the Wheeler appli-
cation, which means victory for the
Minnesota Iron company. 1t has been
a desperate and bitter fight, and is only
just begun. The Germana from COM
pany which claimed the land under a
purchase from Emil Hartmann who
filed patentine and Porterfield scrip
upon the land on the memorable 23d of
February, 1889, and whose application
was accepted by the then officers of the
land office, will undoubtedly appeal.
In fact, if the final settlement of this
holly contested case comes within five
years, it will be much earlier than any
body expects.
The value of the land in controversy
is variously estimated by sums contain
ing seven figures, but it is not as valua-
BILE now as it was before the discovery
of iron in large quantities on the Mesaba
range.

MADISON, Wis, Jan. 23.-The SEN
atorial fight has reached fever heat,
and with the exception of a change
in one vote remains the same.
The members from the north did
not arrive until late, and it was
1880 before the caucus was called to
order. E. A. Edmund5, strong Mitch
ell man from Oconto Falls, telegraphed
that he could not be present on account
of his mill having been burned,
but he instructed the chairman to
cast his ballot for Mitchell. This was
not allowed. Mahoney, who is also one
of Mitchell'S supporters, was too
sick to leave the hotel. On the
twelfth formal ballot (the first

Blenski, OF Milwaukee, announced that

Rishes of his constituents, and voted

WASHINGTON, Jan. 90. = Senator
Davis, with the laurel wreath Of victory
cooked over one eye and breathing
vengeance out of both nostris, is back.
He arrived last night, and made his first
appearance in public this afternoon. AS
ne entered the senate chamber and
went into the cloak room his colleagues
rose and followed him and congrat-
ulated him on his very narrow escape.
Then they questioned to learn the
why and wherefore of his failure to
secure the unanimous vote Of his party.
He had expected to receive that vote
when he left here for the field of battle.
and led others to expect the same thing.
That he should pull through by no
more than one poor vote, and that
by strategy, surprised them one
and all. He told them why, and he
didn't mince matters in declar-
ing that his supposed friends had
played him false. Moreover, he declared
that they had used money to defeat him,
and further. they did everything III Their
power to rob him of what he believed
was justly his, a reelection. "HOw
much did it cost you, DaSis?" some one
asked him. ELEVEN hundred dol

QueStiOners and the rest around him.
They kept their features intact while e
looked. but when he turned away their
features relaxed into smile, and, look
ing at one another, they winked the
other eye. These words Davis cid not

that he had nausht but

and shake of the hand; but he
talked SO freely to his colleagues
as to give them the impression
that he had no desire for secrecy.
SO they talked and right willingly. One
of them after repeating the above added
that Davis had it in. for eXGov. Merriam
in particular. He looks upon Merriam
as the chief of the conspiracy to defeat
him, and if Merriam gives him change
to Wreak vengeance OH him he INTENDS
to wreak it in merciless and vigor-
Gus fashion. When he has Wreaked
about all the vengeance he wants
on Merriam he will wreak little OH
Lieut.. Gov. Clough, and then turn upon
the minor conspirators. He will let

afraid of the governor. but because he
believes him guitless OF false play.
But, he'll have enough to keep
busy without Nelson,'' said the

will find that four years hence he will
not have more than punished very

There is trouble among tine Democrats
of the Silver state which threatens to

Senator German is confident that the
Democrats will organize the senate
even if the troubles in Montana
are not settled, but he wants

state Just the same. The situation in
Montana has been the subject of several
previous conferences between Demo

troubles there cannot be settled by cor
respOndence, some one may be sent out
