THRILLING STORY.
Fireman OF the Burned Steamer
Tells an Exciting Tale.

IeiIS an Exciting Tale.
NORTH BAY, Ont. Nov. 9.-Today
brought the first explicit news of the
terrible calamity which overlook the
steamer John Fraser on Lake Nipisslng.
1t is now believed there were twenty
four men on board the steamer Fraser
when she took fire, but only twenty can
be accounted for. Thirteen, whose
names have already been given, are
known to be lost. The names of the
seven saved have also been reported.
A thrilling story of the scene in mid
lake is told by John Adams. the fireman
of the burnt steamer, who has arrived
at North Bay. In an interview today
he said:
"All seemed going we'll until. just as
the dinner bell rang, the engineer
noticed smoke coming from above the
boiler between the smoke stack and
steam dome. He called to me. and |
got up to take the door off the manhole
over the boiler. AS soon as | raised it
the flames beiched out and drove me
back. The engineer rushed for pail
to get water, while L started the pony
engine and tried to couple the hose.
We could not stay long enough. how
ever, and Capt. Carr at that moment
rang for the engines to stop, then back
up, but the signals were never respond
ed to, and l don't believe the engineer
had chance to get near the lever, the
fire was SO hot. Indeed, | never saw
him again. and [ do not think he ever
came up from the awful furnace. When
| reached the deck the captain was
directing the boys to lower the boats,
They were hurrying about IN fright
ened manner, but he was cool and
quiet. and l heard him say: BE steady
there, bcys.and take your time" They
were working on the port side yawl,
and l ran around to the other boat,
which by this time was in the water,
and a lot of fellows were in her.
Throwing my coat and bundle in, |
jumped for the stern, but at that mo-
ment the boat drlIted under the still
rapidly revolving paddle wheel and
dipped down under the bow, throwing
the whole OF us into the water. l went
down, it seemed, almost to the bottom.
and as l dropped | got a kick in the
face from somebody's boot. When l
came up l saw the fellows struggling
about in all directions. The engines
on the boat had never stopped, and she
had gone bit ahead. She
was now turning, however, and be-
gan coming Dack III VIDE sweep.
l was about exhausted. but managed to
catch a tow line and hauled myself
along to scow in tow of the steamer.
There were four of the boys already On
her As soou as could pull myself to-
| gether l GOT out my knife and cut the
tow rope, and she lay to awhile while
we rescued two men. All the other
| poor fellows had gone under"
The water in Lake Nipissing is of
very low temperature, and none Of the
| bodies, it is expected, will come to the
surface before spring. The Inflated
craft was a side wheeler steam tow, 40
! feet long, nearly new, owned by David
son & Hay. of Toronto, who operate eX-
tensive timber limits on the north shore
of Lake Nipissing. The steamer was
used to carry supplies TO the camps and
bring back lows of saw logs to the mills
| at Cache Bay. She had crew of eight.
The remainder of those aboard were
| lumbermen.

HAWAIIAN MATTERS.
Gresham Will Not Talk on the
Result Of the Cabinet Meeting.

Result Of the Cabinet Meeting.
WASHINGTON. Nov. a.-It is evident
that there is much to be told in the
Hawaiian matter vet. Secretary Gresh-
am declines to lmpart any information
on the subject whatever. His Office
gives no ray of light upon it. The dis
cussion OF the policy towards Hawaii
at the cabinet meeting Tuesday seems
to have given information to some mem
bers of the administration that have
lacked it heretofore. Bits of talk on
the subject have triekled through to the
public since then in way that does not
indicate that the source of the informa-
ton is friendly TO the policy. 1t is evi-
dent that it is not policy friendiy'to
the present provisional government of
the island or the purpose for whichsit
was formed, which was annexation to
the United States. There is reason
to believe that the present provisional
government in Hawaii is regard as
the result of the landing of marines
from the Boston in Honolulu at the
time OF the revolution. and as already
stated in these dispatches. the desire of
this administration is TO go back over
all the steps taken by the last admins
tratlon and undo them. Well informed
persons who comment on these facts
point out the difficulty for the United
States government in deposing the pro-
vIslonai government in a diplomatic
way after having formally recognized it
as the lawful government of the island,
received Its accredited diplomatic rep
resentatlves and accredited a United
States minister to it. There seems no
authority for believing that the United
States minister has been given the
power to exercise anything more
than moral influence to secure
re-eStablishment of the conditions
IN the Islands that obtained before the
recent revolution. The fact that such
an Influence is to be tried indicates
hope that it will succeed. There Is
unanimity among those we'll acquainted
with the islands that no mere moral
suasion will ever serve to depose the
provisional government and re-establish
the queen. The further policy to be
pursued must then probably wait for
further instructions.
The United States navy will view with
little satisfaction any effort to restore
Quee Liliuokalani in Honolulu. Oil
GERS in the navy have been ardent an
neXatlOnlStS, and the opinion has pre-
vailed among them that Queen Liliuo-
kalani represented the British interests
IN the Islands. Just at present they are
very discreet about expressing any
opinions on the subject. l.. a. Thurs
ton, Hawaiian minister, is IN Chicago at
present.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 9.-Three ship
wrecked seamen from the Spanish bark
Juan Marga arrived IN port last even
ing on the schooner Henry Lippitt troiu
Turks island. The rescued mariners
are Antonio Crimen, Llogi Peris and
Eedro Nagloles, boy, who were picked
up IN mid-oeean, entirely nude, after
undergoing sufferings that almost made
them crazy. They had seen seven of
their comrades perish. The remaining
two were taken off their vesSsl by the
steamship Lampas. and landed at
Gatherton Oct. 19. The Murga was
caught IN terrible northeast hurricane
Oct. 9. The crew took to the rigging,
where they firmly lashed themselves.
The provisions were washed overheard
with the water casks, leaving nothing
by which the men could quench their
thirst or satisfy their hunger. The
cargo sweiled, and rent the decks
asunder. Ten of the crew then took to
the long boat, while two of the men re-
nained on the bark in preference 10
going on the oYercroWded IOat, and
were thereby saved. The boat in which
the men embarked mad hardly got away
from the wrecked vessel when she was
capsiZed. Seven of the men struggled
for short time in the raging sea, and
then sank from sight. while the other
three managed to get rid of their heavy
clothes and swan for a small boat
which was drifting close by. After
three days Of suffering they were finally
rescued by the Llppitt. Their suffer

Protest Against an Increased Tax
on Manufactured Tobacco.

Protest Against an Increased Tax
on Manufactured Tobacco.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-The commit
tee appointed by the convention of to-
bacco manufacturers of the United
States. to appear before the ways and
means committee and protest against
any increase Of the tax on manufactured
tobacco, was accorded a hearing this
afternoon by Chairman McMillIn, of tue
subcommittee on internal revenue, and
Mr.. Spencer, of Cincinnati, acted as
spokesman. He said they represented
eighty of the most prominent tobacco
manufacturers of the country, and had
been unanImuslv Instructed at a meet
ing OF these manufacturers to state that
any increase of the tax on manufactured
tobacco would be inlmical to the inter
ests of both the manufacturers and
growers Of tobacco, by reason of the
lessenlng or the consumption. The
committee recommended that if any leg
lslation whatever be enacted affecting
the tobacco interests, it be a repeal of
the law OF 1890, which permits the sale
OF leaf tobacco to the consumer without
the payment of taxes. They argued
that the repeal of this law would largely
increase the government revenues on
tobaccoS.
MIR. McMillin gave no intimation of
the Intentions of the committee on ways
and means with reference to the tobacco
schedule, but it has been frequently
rumored that the majority of the com.
mittee favors an increase of the tobacco
tax as means of supplying the neces-
Sary revenues Of the government. The
correctness of these rumors is doubted
by the tobacco men.
Messrs. McMillin. Turner, Brecken-
ridge, Bynum and Montgomery, of the
ways and means committee, today had
a conference with Secretary Carlisle
with reference to the tobacco and other
| schedules. Mr.. Wall, of Wisconsin,
subsequently saw Secretary Carlisle to-
| day, during which he took occasion tc
| protest against the new tariff bill in
creasing the internal revenue tax OIL

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-Commissioner
Miller of the internal, revenue bureau,
today addressed letter to Mr.. Murphy,
collector Of internal revenue for the
Milwaukee. Wis, district, which, it is
believed, outlines the policy of the ad-
ministration as to government en-
ployes participating actively in politics.
Mr.. Murphy has held his acceptance Of
the Office in allegiance until he could
ascertain the views of his superior
officers on the subject. The commits
siouer's letter to Mr.. Murphy conveyed
the intimation that, according to the
ideas of the civil service entertained by
the administration, it would be well to
leave himself entirely free to devote all
of his time to the duties of his Office.
The letter was written at the direction
of Secretary Carlisle.
