NEW York June 1.-The railway and
miscellaneous shares today was n waiting
one. In the early trading the tendency of
prices was downward. Sugar, Louisville
and Nashville and General Electric lost a
to II, but the general list recsded less
than = per cent. This was succeeded by
n period Of dullness, but in tho last hour
Sugar moved up gradually to 1919 against
0915 early in the day. Chicago Gas rose TO
741G nfter selling down to T3L and left off
at AK. The tirmness of Sugar and Gas
had Il good effect on the railway list in
the late trading. The fluctuations at the
board just now are hardly worth serious
consideration, as the changes arc simply
the result of the operations of half n dozen
or so room traders. The market left Off
toleraN!y firm. Sales were l1O, rs shares.

TRIPLE TRAGEDY.
Walter Phipps Shoots Two Women,
Fires at a Man and Kills Himself.

CHICAGO, Jan. 20.-Walter Phipps shot
and dangerously wounded Mrs. James Nc
Corrnick and Elma Erickson on State
street, to-day, and then committed suicide
Phipps had been on spree and entered
his room, where Miss Erickson was putting
things in order. What was said no one
knows. The report of a pistol was fol-
lowed by screams from the girl Mrs Me-
Cormick rushed to the room and found the
girl on the floor with bullet hole in her
head and Phipps standing over her with a
revolver In his hand. He fired at Mrs. Nc
Cormick, the ball taking effect in her head
He then rushed down stairs and fired at
the barkeeper, after which he turned the
pistol OH himself with fatal result Mrs
Mccormick and Miss Erickson were taken
to st. Joseph's Hospital. IL is believed that
they cannot recover.
Not a great deal is known of Phipps. He
roomed with the McCormiclIs for a month
and seemed to be q, steady and diiigent
young man. For several weeks past he
has been out of work. The girls sur
geon said that her death would be a ques-
ton of d few hours, but they thought that
Mrs. Mccormick would live. No one could
understand ut all why the man should give
way to such a strange impulse TO kill Not
five minutes before he tried TO shoot Clark
he shook dice with him and the men had a
social drink together.

TALE OF CASTAWAYS.
Eighty Days on an Island with Nothing
but Raw Food to Eat.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. pa story Of
the adventures of castaways who were on
an island for eighty days comes from Auck-
land. The bark Spirit Dawn, bound from
Chile to Rangoon, was wrecked at the
Antipodes islands, Sept 4. he officers and
crew, except the captain and four men,
reached the islands safely. The men, who
were scantily attired, were much exhausted
They secured their boat as best they could
but during the night it broke away. They
constructed a rude hut of tussocks and
here they remained for eighty days until
rescued by the Hinemoa, subsisting all that
time on raw mutton. birds, penguin eggs
and roots. They had no matches to light
a fire. Although government depot con-
tanning provisions, clothing, etc, was only
three miles from the spot where they landed
they did not think of searching the island
and remained in ignorance of its existence
Curious enough, too, although there are
many goats. sheep and cattle on the island
which IS only three thousand acres in eX-
tent, none were seen by the castaWays
Notwithstanding their privations the sur
vtvors, eleven in number, enjoyed excellent
health, with the exception of a Rangoon
the time they were on the island they saw
four passing vessels. but were unable to
attract their attention. The Hinemoa
noticed their signals and a boat was sent
ashore. The castaways We're found in a
pitecus plight standing on the rocks, some
with pieces OF raw penguin flesh in their
hands, which they were eating

MITCHELL DEFENDED.
.sBat" Mnsterson Thinks the Enghsh-
man Is n better Man Than Corbett'

ST. LOUIS. Jan. 20.-"Bat' Mastersoh'
The well-known Denver sport, in a letter
TO the Post Dispatch states that he picks.
Mitchell for winner. In the letter ne
says that, in his opinion, Mitchell has
been the victim OF most unfair and un-
sportsmanlike criticism at the hands OF
Corbett and his henchmen. l do not desire
TO have il understood / am prompted by
Mitchell i'm making this statement, but L
think IL is high time the American public
heard the other side of the story. which,
up to this time, has been all in the shape
of theatrical advertising. Mitchell Is not an
actor He is a fighter, and i think Corbett
will have reasons TO believe this before
many days have passed. Corbett appears
to think it will do him no end OF good TO
circulate stories concerning his prospective
opponent which no man or intelligence
would listen to for single moment. l know
Corbett perhaps, as we'll any man in
America. and / say, without the slightest
hesitation that Corbett Is beginning 10 re
alize that he is up against IT. and L really
think if either man is absent at roll call
next Thursday it will be the American
champion. Corbett processes TO oeheVe
Mitchell will not be able TO withstand his
terrific punches and his cyclone r1shes @ Lor
as that / should think he would Keep IL 10
himself at least until his friends have sue
ceede0 IN placing tnelT IlOHey " DS0I
advantage 1t is to be supposed that for
political reasons Corbett would be careful
not TO give utterance to sentiments which
proclaim to the Governor and every one
else that the fight is going to be desperate
one and that Mitchell is afraid TO face the
issue Mitchell has been circumspect in TINS
regard / do not deny that Mitchell has
said unkind things of Corbett, but he has
not vet descended TO such ridiculous and
idiotic utterances as have been attributed
to the American champion and those living
in ha Cha
