THE NEWS IN WASHINGTON


I;cGrot Expressed Everywhere III omcIal
Circles Mt Receipt O: the Information.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Juno 24.-Al-
though tho public places at Washing
ton were deserted on this hot Sunday
evening, tho newa Of The assassination
OF President Carnot became known over
the city with remarkable rapidity. Tho
most pronounced sensation was created
everywhere, but particularly in official
circles was tho tragedy most Eccnly
felt, and most intelligcntly discussed.
President Cleveland, tho vice presi-
dent, Secretary Gresham, tho French
minister aud other officials, were given
the news by tho Associated Press ro-
porters and learned it from them, for
no official dispatches were received.
Without exception they were deeply
affected and expressed their regret in
strong terms. 10 the French ambassa-
dor PHtcnotro the announcement was o
great and most unexpected shock com.
ing as it did from clear Hky at :ime
when tho internal and foreign affairs OF
France are in pcaceable etatc. Until
q late hour the French embassy Was the
ccntro oil interest, many diplomats and
other officials OF this government driv-
ing thero TO learn what details they
might Of tho affair and extend their
expressions OF regret.
Up to late hour no official cable
grams had been received even at the
French embassy. and in default OF such
information tho President and secretary
Of state did not feol justified in sending
any expressions OF regret.
Foreign representatives and officials
acquainted with French politics say
that Carnos was essentially safe man,
ono whom tho French people relied
upon while they did not gush over him
or accord 10 him the dramatic following
they have given lenders OF tho stripe OF
Boulancer. Carnot was considered an
aesthetic, q hard working man and
had what may bo termed so!id
popularity. Cabinets havo changed
often in Franco OF late, but there
has been no talk OF dcposing Carnot.
Tt is said that bc could have boon re.
elected and no ono ia willing to venture
O prophecy rs to who his successor will
be, conceding that i! will be next to an
impossibility to find Fronchman to
fill hia chair and act the part OF balance
wheel as largely ns he has. Much curl
.osity Is expressed to know whether the
feeling between Franco and Italy, which
has lately been formed by labor trou.
bles, furnished any motive Tor tho as.
sa.siuation.
Senator Morgan, chairman Of tho for.
eign relations committee, aaid: "This
is q blow at tho peace and Justice aud
civilization OF the world. France in her
long and eveutiul history has had for

AN oVCRLOADED TUG

for.
NEw YonK, Juno 24.-Tho tug James
D. Nichol, with sixty-thrce cxcursionisss
and u crew numbering ten or twelve,
sank at about o'clock this afternoon
como three miles Of tho highlands.
Fiity-four Of those on board have been
accounted for, and tho rest Eero proba-
bly, drowned. She had, it is said, q
license to carry fifty passengers, but
sixty-threo tickots wero sold. There
was o bar aud lunch counter on board,
| whose attendants with tho crew brought
the whole number on board up to about
soventy-hvc.
Tho tug reached the fishing banks on
time, but tho fishing was poor and the
sea too rough for comfort, and about
noon sho started back. When about
thrco miles cast Of tho Highland and
about four miles south of Scotland Light
ship, tho waves began to break heavily
over her starboard rail. To dodge the
water and wind the passengcra began to
run around to tho portsido and to climb
on top OF tho dack house. Tho boat ca
reened alafmingly 10 port and the water
swept over the rail. Tho tcrror.s.ricken
mon rushed back 10 starboard and the
tug swung deeply down on that side.
At tho same moment thrco heavy
breakors struck the boat in quick cue
cession.
The captain, William Hyatt, stuck
pluckily to bia post and sounded the
whistle in prolonged scream ior holp.
Even as he did 80, tho tug filed with
water that poured into her from both
sides and sank out OF sight In the water.
She went down like stone, carrying
many OF her passengers with her. The
water choked the cry OF tho whistle, but
not before it had been hoard and
needed.
Tho Algonquin sGnt her life boat with
first officer A. NJ. Rich and four Halors.
They picked up ten men, ono OF whom,
however. died few momcnts later.
Tho tugs rescued tho others who re.
maincd atloat, Some iow had liio belts
on, but most OF them were c!inging to
bits Of wrockago. 4 life raft supported
a dozen and tho top OF tho pilot house
many moro.
An unconscious man was picked up
by the Algonquin. llo was under tho
ihwarts aud entangIcd in fishing limos.
The boat practically unsuitable was
floating right side up but was full Of
water.
Captain S. S. Platt. Of tho Algonquin,
says that while stiff breeze was blow.
ing, there was nc sudden sqcGli There
was big, ehort sharp sea on.
Tho Algonquin brought those
she picked up 10 tho city.
Tho living dispersed to their homes
and the dead body which has not been
identified was sent to tho norguc.
Some OF the tugs no: wishing TO como
to the city transferred tho men they
had saved TO other tugs.
The savers brought up 3S survivors
and landed them on the east side.
The c. E Evarts brought up two
bodies and several survivors. Tho Gov
ernor is supposed to have landed in
Bgooklyn.
Altogether 81 out OF the 75 have been
accounted ior, three OF them being

he never fully realized the need of doing
this until last evening, when he saw almost
as many standing outside the doors as
would more than fill the hall. Inside
the people were crowded so close together
that the canvassers found it almost impos
sible to make aIy Roadway. The an
nouncement in last nights DEMOCRAT in
reference to the great fairy show which
was to take place was largely responsible
for the immense throng and those who
succeeded in getting on the inside were
not disappointed, for they witnessed one
of the most amusing exercises that has ever
been put on the stage in Waterbury. The
children acted their parts IN an excellent
manner and men and women shouted them
selves hoarse while miniature fairies and
butterflies skipped and fitted around the
stage. This play will be repeated Thurs
