THE OEPHEus FLOATED.
Dry Docked at the Communipaw
Basin-EHer Injuries.

New YORK, July 18. 1S94.-The iron
steamboat Cephus, which was beached last
evening Just inside Norton's Point, Coney
Island after collision with her sister boat,
the Cetu S, was foated this morning by a
wrecking crew of the Chapman Wrecking
Company and towed to the Iron Steamboat
Company's dock in the Comm1nipaw basin
by the Chapman tug Hustler.
1t was found that tho only injury sus-
tanned by the Cepheus was the hole cut in
one of her compartments by the sharp Prov
of the Cetus. This compartment used for
the forage of coal for the furnaces, was
flooded, but the water tight doors leading to
the adjoining compartments were closed
in time to save them from the inrushing
water.
The damage to the Cepheus was estimated
this morning at about $4,000. A force of
men were put to work immediately upon
her arrival at the Communipaw dock. and
it is expected that the repairs to her hull will
be completed in time for her to resume her
regular trips on Monday next,
The injuries sustained by the Cetus were
slight, and were confined to the splintering
of the woodwork about her PROV.
Dock Superintendent Rowland of the Iron
Steamboat Company said that she would be
ready to resume her trips to Coney Island
by noon today. The damage to her wood
work was not more than $3.50 worth.
No blame is attached to the officers of
either the Cetus or the Cepheus by the man
ayers of the company. The accident was set
down to the dense fog which lay over the
water yesterday afternoon and was consid-
cred unavoidable.

WASHINGTON, July 18, 1S94.-The Demo.
cratic members of the tariff conference met
this morning at half past ten o'clock. but
as one of the number expressed it, with no
expectation that the meeting would result
differently from those which have been held
for the past ten days. At two o'clock this
afternoon the republicans viii be called
in and further consideration will
be given by the conferees to the six hundred
and odd items in dispute between the two
houses 1t is said today that the report
showing an entire disagreement between thG
conferees will not be made to the House
until tomorrow, inasmuch as this afternoons

MR.. WILSON'S PHYSICAL CONDITION.
Mr.. Wilson of West Virginia is still on the
sick list. The neuralgia from which he is
suffering, and which has developed con-
siderable erection on his face, is worse
today than yesterday. He is very
plucky, however, and insists upon dis
charging his duties in the conference so
long as he is able to move about, notwith-
standing the intense pain with which he
is afflicted. Unfortunately for Mr.. Wilson,
the final disposition of the Tariff bill viii not
bring TO him the season of rest which his
weakened physical condition demands. He
is still weak from the effects of the typhoid
fever of last winter, and his physicien in
forms him that he is yet far from
being well man. With the adjournment
of Congress it is his intention to return to
West Virginia and enter the campaign, and
following this comes the next session of Con-
gress, which will begin about December l.
His friends are fearful that his condition
will not permit this prolonged strain, but he
insists that it will, and he proposes at all
events making the trial.
THE DISAGREEMENT
The Democratic members of the tariff con-
ference adjourned at noon with the under
standing that at the full meeting, which is
called for two o'clock, there would be a
general disagreement, and the report to be
made to the House tomorrow. After the
meeting Senator Jones left for the uptown
departments, presumably on visit 10 the

BRITISH CONSUL AssAILED.
The Lion Will BE Apt to Make
Things Lively In Japan and Corea.


SHANGHAI July 1s, l694.-Advices from
Seoul, the capital Of Corea, say that an at
tack has been made by Japanese soldiers
upon the British Consulate and that Consul
General Hitler and his wife were brutally
assaulted A force of British marines has
been landed at Seoul to protect the Consu-
late from further attack.
Additional adyices from Seoul give state
ment concerning the attack upon Consul
General Hitler, furnished by the Consul
General himself Mr. Hitler says he was
stopped upon public road by japanese sol
diers who deman ded to know who he was and
where he was going Mr., Hitler replied by
giving his official title, whereupon
SO veral of the soldiers rushed upon him, beat
him with their fists and dragged him almost
fifty yards in the dirt. Mrs Hitler, who
was being borne in chair, witnessed these
indignit1es to her husband and protested
vehemently. Her remonstrances further en-
ragged the soldiers who scattered the chair
bearers and pushed the chair with Mrs.
II illier in it into the ditch.
Consul General Hitler made formal
complaint to the japanese minister at Seoul,
but no apology was offered, nor can it be
learned that the offending soldiers were pun
ished
From this statement it would seem that
the repore that an attack was made on the
British consulate at Seoul is erroneous.

New YORK, July 1S, 1894.-C. Fl. Joaquin,
who keeps hotel at Twenty ty-eighth street
and Sixth avenue was badly lacerated on
the left shoulder and arm yesterday by a
large ST. Bernard SLUT which be keeps
around his stables at Hillsdale, N. j.
The slut has brood of little o.es and is
known to be vicious. She is kept muzzled,
except when eating. which she happened to
be doing when Mr.. Joaquin went in the
chicken house near by,
The dog was not very well acquainted with
her master, as he kept man to attend her,
and, thinking him q stranger, she sprang
upon him. Putting her two huge paws on
his breast, she fastened her teeth in his left
shoulder, tearing the flesh from the shoulder
to the elbow.
The dogs keeper, hearing Mr.. Jacquin's
cries. rushed to save his life aud clubbed the
the brute into submission

CHICAGO, July Is, 1S94.-President Debs
Vice President Howard. Secretary Kelihar
and Director Rogers of the American Rail-
way Union passed pleasant night in Jail.
They slept well and this morning ate hearth
ly of ham and eggs. Debs passed the greater
part of the morning answering his private
correspondence
He refused to talk TO reporters about the
strike prospects. A there can be no meeting
of the Board of Directors while its principal
members are in Jail, it is not likely that
there will be any change in the situation un-
til next Monday, when the trial for contempt
takes place. The Board can get no quorum
now, it being composed of nine members,
and three of these being out of the city.
The imprisoned strike leaders have not yet
availed themselves of the permission given
by Judge Seaman to leave the Jail in
charge of a bailiff. President Debs says
they will do SO only when their lawyers call
for them for consultation, This morning
President Debs was visited by scores of per-
sons, among them his brother and his wife
and sister. Several offers of bail have been
made since those of yesterday, but all were
politely declined

BIG FOREST FIRE.

Many Mining Towns In Minn esOta
Threatened-Prayin For Rain.
DULUTH. Minn, July IS, 1S94.-Big forest
fires are raging throughout the country, and
only heavy rains before there is change of
wind, can prevent great destruction of stand
ing pine and other property, in addition to
the heavy damage that has already been
done. From all the roads entering Duluth
the report is one of forest fires all along the
line. Carlton and the village near
it on the Northern Pacific are
threatened, and the fire is close
to Fond Du Lac and st. Louis,
and New Duluth. Heavy winds or change
in the direction would make their danger
great. The forests along the south shore of
the lake are burning, and the indications are
that the fire extends well back toward the
villages which were burned last year.
On the Mesaba Range fires are
burning in every direction There
are numerous mining towns there, all
hastily built and nearly all without adequate
fire protection. They were wiped out of ex-
istence a year ago under conditions similar
to these which now prevail, and repetition
of the calamity is possible. AT AtSuperior yes
terday the suburbs were threatened, and the
Fire Department was used to keep the
flames out of the city

PILGRIMAGE TO LoURDEs.
Nearly Two Hundred Americans
Smiled Away Today.


BROOKLYN, July IS, 1S94.-A scene of un-
usual attractivenessswas witnessed early this
morning in the Monastery of the Precious
Blood IN this city, when 1877 pilgrims from
all parts of the United States assembled
to hear mass and get the Bishops
benediction before thevstartedl on pill
grimage to Lourdes. The pilgrims assem-
bledat the monastery at seven A. NJ, and
occupied the body of the chapel. In the
chapel were also assembled many friends Of
the pilgrims.
The mass was celebrated by Rev. Father
Mitchell, Chancellor of the Diocese, Father
Porcile. Chaplain of the band OF pilgrims,
preached the sermon. At the conclusion on
the mass Bishop Mcdonnell bestowed the
Papal Benediction, Breakfast was served
in the monastery and the band was photo
graphed They then left in three partle s
for the steamship pier in New York city.
The Paris, which sailed for Southampton
at eleven A. NJ, carried 120 of the pilgrims.
The other 81 will sail this afternoon on the
steamer Noordland for Antwerp The pill
grims win gather at Antwerp on July 2S. and
will travel together to Lourdes. They
have several hundred petitions from
persons who could not go on
the pilgrimage. These patitions IN
clude appeals to the Lady of Leurdes for re-
lief from all sorts OF affiictlons Inese
petitions will be read before the grotto Of
Lourdes by Father Porcile and then placed
In receptacle. The party will sail from
Antwerp for New York on September o.,
after an extended sightseeing tour.
The story Of the apparitions at Lourdes is
familiar one. On the afternoon of Febru-
ary II. 1858; the first apparition OF the Vir-
gin Mary is said to have appeared to Berna-
ditta Souborous, q peasant girl who was
collecting fagots in the woods about the
rocks of Marsabelle She was beautiful
lady, who, she said, commanded her to tel
the priest to build chapel there. Assplen
shrine and grotto, from which sprang a
miraculous fountain, have been visited
yearly ever since by thousands.

WORK FOR PARLIAMENT. {
All the Governments Big Bills Go
Over-Balfour Sneere.
Bu Cable to the United Press

By Gable TO the United Pres.
LONDON, July Is, 1o94.-The House of
Commons was crowded today in anticipa-
tion of Sir William Harcourt's announce
ment of the Governments programme for
the remainder of the session. The Chancellor
of the Exchequer was greeted with pro-
longed cheers as he arose to make the prom
ised announcement. The time had come, he
said, when it was necessary to consider how
business could best be expedited and the
session of Parliament closed. 1t was clearly
impracticable to proceed with some of the
great measures to which the Government
was pledged, such as the Welsh Church Lis
establishment bill and the Local Veto bill
The passage Of these bills would constitute
part of the work of the next session.
Sir William thought that the House, be-
fore being prorogued, could deal with the
Evicted Tenants bill, the Equalization of
London Rates bill, the Scotch Local Govern
ment bill and the Miners Eight Hour bill
The first of these, the Evicted Tenants bill,
was of pressing Importance and the next in
point of urgency was the Equalizasion of
London Rates bill In addition to the fore
going measures he mentioned a number Of
minor bills, which he said the Government
were hopeful of passing in season to enable
the House to rise at the end of August
Mr.. Balfour said he thought the Govern
ment's programme as outlined was better
suited to the beginning than the ending of a
session. There still remained about a
months business in dealing with the Supplies
bill, which would leave ten days for the con-
sideration of four great measures and many
Others which, though of lesser consequence,
were still full of material for debate. Be
sides this several members had prepared
series of questions concerning OF her meas
ures which required careful attention.
Sir William Harcourt declined to make
any further statement and the House pro-
ceeded to consideration of the army esti-
mates

ACTION OF THE UNITED STATES
Merely Expressed Opinion That an
AmfcabIe Arrangement BE Reached.

Amtcable Arrangement BE Reached. &.
WASHINGTON, July is, 1S94.-The United
States, acting independently of other
powers, has made representations to China
and Japan through the American Ministers
in those countries looking to settlement of
the Korean controversy by peaceable
methods. 1t is understood that about week
ago Great Britain, France, Russia and Ger
many united in an expression to both
China and Japan suggesting intermediation
to the end Of securing better condition OF
of affairs in Korea. They bound themselves
to exert their good offices to bring about this
result so soon as the japanese troops, which
were stated to be an embarrassment to the
Korean King, had been withdrawn The
United States abstained from participating
in this action, preferring to hold to its policy
of avoiding entangling alliances with
European nations whose policy on Eastern
questions is generally totally dissimilar to
our own.
Several days ago, however, the State De-
partment directed the American representa-
tives in China and Japan to express to the
Governments of those countries the hope
of the United States that an amicable
settlement could be reached, which was
intended and, it is believed, so under
stood as an intimation that the United
States would consent, if requested, to act
as intermediary in the matter The sug-
gestion has been conveyed to both govern
ments that the interest of the United States
in all Asiatic matters is solely for unre-
stricted commerce and the general welfare
of nations
1t seeks no territory on the western shore
Of the Pacific ocean, and desires in the future
to have no offensive or defensive relations of
political nature with Asiatic countries.
But it views with deep concern a possible
war in the east which might eventually in
volve other powers and even affect the peace
of Europe
In these representations to China and
Japan the United States hopes to bring
about an agreement to have the dispute sub
mitted to arbitration

THE MINNEAPOLIS DOOKED.

PHILADELPHIA, July Is, 1894. The cruiser
Minneapolis, which reached League Island
at midnight after her successful trial trip,
and anchored there for the night, procee ded
to the ship yard this morning. The winner of
$414. 900 in premiums for her builders was
given a rousing reception as she steamed up
the Delaware river. Vessels Of all classes
saluted the fastest warship afloat with
whistles and guns, while from the wharves
the ovation was probably more demonstra-
tive than that rendered by moored and pass
ing crafts.
The 5000 employees of the Cramps assem-
bled. on the wharves of the ship yard, and at
l0:30 o'clock when the cruiser hove in sight
with 1923. .05' painted on her forward fun
nel, they set up a mighty cheer In ad-
sdition to this, brass band played its loudest,
and salute Of forty guns was given from a
huge cannon. The ship yard was bedecked
with flags and bunting, and canvas BAN
ner bearing the inscription
Is ssWelcome Home Minneapolis, 23.05
Knots, 2 occupied considerable space along
the river front. The cruiser was docked
shortly after eleven O'clock, and in honor Of
the record breaking trip the 5000 workmen
were given rest from their labors until one
o'clock in the afternoon.

ANOTHER RIVER MYSTERY.
No one Has Yet Identified the Young
Lady Found Last NIGHT.


NEW YoRK, July IS, 1S94-The mystery
of the young woman whose body was
dragged OUT of the East River last night, re-
mains unsolyed. Not the slightest clew az
to her identity can be found. No person
answering her description has been reported
missing in the city.
Shortly after ten o'clock last night James
Smith of Ne. II Tompkins street was stand
ing on Pier So, at the foot of Broome street,
looking out over the river, when he sDied q
dark object floating along in the water, not
twenty feet from where he was.
He watched it, and as it passed close under
the lights of a barge lying there he made
out hnman form. The upturned face was
that of a handsome young woman.
Smiths cries brought a number of other
men to the spot, including Policeman Curran
of the Delaney street station. A boat was
sent out and the body brought ashore. 1t
was evident that it had been in the water.
but few hours, and although there was
every indication of life being extinct, the
men made every effort to resuscitate her. A
call was sent to the Gouverneur Hospital for
an ambulance When DR.. Cronk, the sur
geon, reached the pier he found little knot
of men gathered around the body working
with will to bring back life A careful
examination, however, convinced him thae
she was dead
Then an investigation was made to find
taken to the police station and there min
ute search was made.
There was no marks on the clothing nor
the slightest thing to give clew to the dead
wonan's identity,
She was evidently a Hebrew, and CO uld
not have been over twenty years of age.
Her face was oval and her complexion
dark, her eyes were large and dark brown,
and her teeth white and well formed. Her
hair was luxuriant and jet black. The fea-
lures were finely formed and evidently those
of woman of refinement.
The clothes, on the other hand, were
coarse and cheap, but spotlessly clean. She
wore a blue and white calico waist, blue
and white calico waist, q blue and white
skirt, brown and white cotton underskirt,
white knit undervest, brown cotton stock
ings button shoes with cloth uppers, and 8
leather belt.
Her height is about 5 feet 2 inches, and
her weight about 125 pounds. There were
no marks of violence upon her body.
