Spectator 31st Dec.

Late on the even ng of yesterday week
the four prisoners sentenced to various terms Of
imprisonment for being concerned IN causing
the death of Inspector Martin at Gweedore,
were released from prison. w. Coll, who had
been sentenced IN October. 1889, to ten
yeals' penal servitude, has therefore escaped
with little over three years Patrick Roarty
and Dominiok Rogers, who received each a
sentence Of seven years, escaped with the
same punishment while Council Ma8ee, who
had only FIVE years sentence, had less than
half of his sentence ~femitted. The exercise
Of the Lord Lieutenantis p~rerogative, there
fore, has equalised sentences which were ,
meant to be Of very different weight, and has
let off the most guilty Of the prisoners with
the same penalty as the least guilt ~ of t. en-.
TIL s is, as yet the most notable of The
triumphs Of the priestly party in Ireland over
the respec' for law which has hitherto char
acterised even Gladstonian Governments in
Ireland. Mr.. Morley's apology will, of
course, be implied in the position be took up
in criticising the policy Of the late Govern
ment for their attempt to arrest Father Mac
Fadden on a Sunday morning after mass,
that this was a deliberate provocation to the
people of Father MacFadden's chapel, and
that the riot therefore, was in some degree
excusable. 1t seems to US a very poor ex-
cuss. Father MaoFadden kept out of reach
as he we'll knew how to do, till the occasion
on which ii suited him to be visible and if
the Irish Government had hesltatef to arrest
him then, it would have.been held, and just
ly held, that he had openly bearded and
defed the Government. Mr.. Morley has
advertised to The world that his respect for
the present criminal law and administration
of Justice il Ireland is of the feeblest,-that
there is no continuity of principle between a
Gladstonian and a Unionist Government, even
on this fundamental point.

ARRIVAL OF THE UMBRIA.
From the Daily Telegraph 'Jany 81

New York Dee. 81.
Never have the tidings of the safe arrival
Of an Atlantic stet mfhip been received
with more sincere satisfaction than was the
announcement made this morning that the
overdue steamer Um5ria had reached the
harbour i'll safety. Fortunately the intelli-
gence brought by the Manhansett and other
steamers which either sighted or spoke the
Umbria in a measure dispelled the fears that
had arisen regarding the vessels safety, but
not until this afternoon, when the liner
steamed up to the wharf, were all the grounds
for anxiety removed.
1t was very early indeed when the first
news reached the city that the vessel was
making for the port. A Dalziel representa-
tive met the steamer off ~cotland Llghtshlp at
3.15 am. From the Captain, Officers; and
others on board he gathei cd the following
particulars
When he fracture Of the shaft was dis
covered the vessels machinery was immedl-
ately stopped. This occurred south OF New
foundland al about 53pp. m. on Friday Deg.
%. Having driven twelve hours before a
heavy storm the umbria was lowed eomo
thirty five miles by the Ham burg American
liner Bohemia, but the cable between the TWO
steamers broke in the heavy gale OF CHRIST
mas Eve and the vessels lost each 9th er'
After drifting for three days to the south
east the Umbria started her machinery again
which had been repaired with great difficulty
bv Mr.. Tomlinson, the chief engineer, aDd
proceeded to steam at half-speed the weather
being fine.
The first intimation the passengers received
of the accident was after dinner on frloay,
although the engineer had been watching the
shaft anxiously forty eight hours, aud the
machinery had been stopped twice on thurs
day night for inspection of the flaw. During
dinner on Friday the steamer stopped Sudut"-
ly, which created some CONSERVATION among
the passengers, who began to wonder wna'
had happened, k
At Z. 30. Captain M'Kay entered the smck-
ing loom and addr. ssed the occupants "s lo'-

The Watchdog found the body first, and
went to the house barking and otherwise
gave indications that something
unusal was at The barn.
Mre Armstrong went out to Investigate
and saw the inanimate form of her hns-
band as it swaved to and fro. The de
ceased was about AZ years of age, and
much broken in health. Lately he had
been quite Respondent on account Of his
infrmities and his poor financial Giro I'M
stances. Only the evening before he
had declared he would take his owu life.
To prevent this his wife hid his gun
and requested the neighbors to refnse
the loan Of firearms, All poisons about
the house had been put away, bnt not
withstanding these precautions, the deed
was done. He had no children.

Fire At Semitic.

SEATTLE, May Z. A fierce fire has been
raging for an hour in the row of cor
rugated iron buildings on Yesler avenue
and at midnight the flames are not I'M
der control, although the entire depart
ment has been called oct and over 90
heavy streams are being poured into the
buildings. The fire broke out in Felitz
Bros tent and sail loft and spread
rapidly to the Willard lodging house and
saloon adjoining on the west and to the
Seattle supply store on the east.
The buildings we're cheap structures
erected just outside the fire limits i'm
mediately after the fire and were of wood
covered with corrugated iron. The
flames ran through the buildings ike
through finder. Al present it is almost
impossible to estimate the losses, The
buildings all belong to the estate of
Henry Yesler and wee worth about $l5,-
600. Among the tenants were:
Willard house and saloon, loss $4,000;
small insurance.
Felitz Bros, $500; nolnsurance.
Silman's cigar store, $1,000; no inSur-
ance,
Freshman, Meyre & Co, $1,000.
Urion Market Company, $1,000.
Employees of the market, furniture and
bedding, 500.
Seattle Paint Company, $500,
Seattle Supply store, loss $4,000.
Washington marked, loss unknown.
Conner Brothers, grocers, lost un-
known.
There are many other tenants, but at
present their names and LOSSES can not
be ascertained. The row was considered
dangerous by incurance men and rated
at s per cent, so very few of the losers
have any insurance.

ment speedily extinquished the flames
A large crowd gathered quickly at
the scene of the disaster and assisted in
rescuing the victims, and large force
of local physicians are giving necessary
attention TO the wounded. Several vic
tins of the wreck were persons standing
in the depot waiting for the train,
The Inflated train, when almost a
mile from the station, began to dash
around curves and tore across a long
bridge, although the man at the throt-
tie reversed the machinery, and immense
streams of fire were being dashed off
from the driving wheels running If an

Aying cars that followed. just after
leaving the east end of the long bridge
the tracks describe a semi-circle, at the
midway point of which the Union sta

the sharp curve it left the track, fol-
lowed by the ears in an awful swirl, and
they were piled upon each other 100
feet away after crashing tho ugh the
train sheds and bringing down tons of
structural iron to add to the terrors of
the situation,
The bystariers went to work at ONCE
and the police and fire department, re-
sponded, Superintendent Bender ar
rived at an early hour and under the
direction Of the train wreckers the
tracks we're soon cleared and ready for
the resumption of traffic, The injured

Killed at the Depot,

LAFAYETTE, Ind, May 7.-One of the
most h Jrribie wrecks in the history Of
rallroading occurred on the Big Four
road in this city at l:l5 this morning,
as the result Of which 10 men are now
dead and many more injured.
The train was an east-bound passen-
ger lsaviug Chicago at 9 p. m. The
accident was caused by the failure of
the air brakes to work, The engineers
desperate efforts to stop the tram were
shown by the large amount of sand
thrown by him on the bridge through
which tn, tram came just before tho
fatal crash, and the vigorous whistling
for brakes. The engine dashed out of
the bridge over tie Wabash river at II
speed Of not less than 60 miles an hour,
crashing into the depot buildings, tear
ing Oft a portion and carrying the train
sheds several hundred feet. Tie engine
when it left the track was followed by
the baggage ear, two postal cars and the
express car, which were piled in one
promiscuous mass, total and complete
wreck, burying n score or more victims
in the awful pile Of debris The chair
ear and two Pullman sleepers remained
on the track, To add to the conster-
nation fire broke out from the stove in

OniceSeekerS are Mad.

WASHINGTON, May S,-The presidents
order closing he white house to office
seekers formed the chief topic of con-
yersation among politicians to-day,
Expressions regarding it are varied in
character, according to the condition
the speaker, Senators and represen-
tatiyes with large and active constitu-
encies are inclined to favor it as they are
relieved of great deal of pressure from
importuning followers. 2, liticians say
the order will have the effect of making
a close corporation of the patronage
system and the president will be de-
barred from hearing the voice of the
people on the f.Dess of candidates, In
opposition to these opinions it is urged
that the president has borne with pa
thence the personal solicitation of the
people for two months; that as a matter
of fact the personal presence of appil-
cants is seldom necessary, 1t is argued
that the denial of personal interviews
does not cut off the right of citizens TO
make Endorsements or to put forward
candidates. 1t is stated on the best au-
thorty that the order OF the president
was decided upon at cabinet meeting
last Friday. The president said he now
had more important business which de-
manded attention than he had during
