LONDON, Oct. 21.-A fierce gale ragged
along the British coast yesterday and
today. causing many casualties. The
wind was so strong and the seas so high
that the channel boats were greatly de-
layed. The Warner lightship. while
being towed from Spithead to her sta
ton. broke awake from the tug boat
when near New Haven. and was driven
shorewards. A boat was lowered to
replace the tow line, but a heavy sea
capsized it and four of its occupants
were drowned. The lightship made
leeway rapidly and was soon driven
ashore. Two other boats were also
driven ashore close by where the light
ship had stranded. The CT ews of all
were saved by the lifeboat crew and
coast guardsmen by the use Of the
breeches buoy. Many other exciting
rescueS of the crews of vessels driven
ashore at various places are reported.
The loss to the owpers of fishing vessels
is large, many of their boats having
been destroyed. At Sunderland a life
brigadesman who had volunteered to
assist in the rescue of the crew of a bark
which had been driven ashore near
there, tripped upon rope which had
been suddenly tautened by the pressure
OF the onlookers upon it, and fell into
the sea and was drowned. A man who
was fixing sign in front of theater in
Sunderland was blown into the street
and killed. Much damage was done
inland by the storm.

LONDON. Oct. 22.-A dispatch to the
Post from Berlin says that Emperor
William and Prince Henry of Prussia
left the banquet given in honor of the
king of Seryia on Friday to meet
Princess AliX, who was en- route to Lii
vadia, at the Charlottenburg station.
They accompanied her to the Silesian
station, where supper was served to
the party in the waiting room. Both
the emperor and Prince Henry were
wrapped in gray military nantes. and
were not generally recognized by the
police. They remained in the railway
station until 10:30 p. m., when Princess
AliX resumed her journey. The dis.
patch adds that the emperor daily re-
ceives several kilograms from Livadia

is quite in accordance with the usual
course of the cZar'S malady that. as
stated in private kilograms. he should

and the imperial patient regains his
normal condition and even his normal
spirits. The night time is the most
dreaded. as sleep can only be obtained
by ever increasidg injections of morphla.
In spite of the latest bulletins, there is
reason to believe that the cZar's life
may be prolonged by careful treatment
for weeks. if not for months. The end
generally comes after a period of col

were brought to this city. their recovery
being impossible, as their flesh in
places is so burned that it is falling off.

STEAMER DREW ASHORE.
A Dense Fog Hovers Over New
York.

York.
QUARANTINE, S. l., Oct. 2l.-There
was dense fog OH the upper and lower
bays throughout the entire day. Up to
2:30 p. IN. the only arrivals since sum
rise were the Old Dominion line steam
er Guyandotte and the Savannah liner
Kansas City. Both vessels reported
dense fog below and along the coast for
a considerable distance. The National
liner Europe, hence for London. which
passed out the Narrows at p. ln.. had
to drop anchor in Gravesend bay owing
to the fog. The British tramp steamer
HAGEN, which also passed out at the
same time. returned and anchored off
Clifton, S. I. The steamer Drew,
of the Peoples Albany line, with
$50 passengers on board, ran ashore off
Fort Washington Point at the foot of
West Eighty-siXtb street, on her trip
from Albany to this city early this
morning. The boats officers declared
that the fog was to blame. The place
where the Drew struck the shore is
little cove. and into this she ran, head
on. and was so firmly held she would
not bulge. Rocks loomed up on either
side. and many made easy stepping
stones from the steamers deck. In this
way the majority of the passengers
took their departure. The steamer was
not much damaged, and at a late hour
tonight the tide rose sufficiently to
float her, aud she steamed to her dock.

MORGANFIELD WANTED.
He Is Probably One OF the Acquia
Creek Robbers.

CINCINNATI, O.. Oct. 21. Tonight
Col. Lew Z. Weir, president of the
Adams Express company. telegraphed
from New York to the chief of police
in this city: "Don't let the man with
the broken leg get loose. We want
him. and want him badly" This refers
to Charles A. Morganield, the prisoner
with broken leg under guard in a
Cincinnati hospital, whom Col. Weir
suspects is one of the Acquia
Creek express train robbers. Tel
egrams are pouring into police
headquarters from all directions today.
1t is believed that other members OF
gang of robbers are here. The police
are very reticent and very active. To-
night Robert A. PInkerton wired ia
Chief Deitsch that Morgantield-he gave
his name as Morganfeld-parted from
Searcey at Cumberland, Md. on Tuesday

THE FALCON DRIFTING,
Believed to Have Broken a
Shaft.

ST. JOINS, n. F.. Oct. 21.-The steam
ship Corean, of the Allan line, arrived
here from Philadelphia last night.
When interviewed today regarding the
steamer Falcon, Capt. Main said he had
seen or heard nothing Of her on the
passage here. The Corean left st. Johns
for Philadelphia on Oct. 4, the day
after the Falcon left Philadelphia, so
that she had an excellent chance of
meeting the latter somewhere between
these two ports. Capt. Main says that
he encountered on the passage either
way no weather sufficiently heavy to
destroy staunch vessel like the Fall
con. He believes that she broke her
shaft and drifted out of the track of
steamers and that she cannot make her
way back as her sail power is too small.

RUMORS OF ACTUAL DEATH
Quickly Followed by Official
Bulletins Indicating Some :,
Improvement.
GREAT ANXIETY IN RUSSIA.
"God Protect the Car" Played
In a Number Of the
Theaters. /

ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 21. - The
dearth of news from Livadia occasioned
the widest rumors to circulate yester-
day to the effect that the czar was
actually dead, but that the fact was
concealed because the czarewitch had
renounced the succession to the throne
and the Grand Duke George, the cZar's
second sou had also died from lung
trouble, from which he has long been a
sufferer. These rumors were etfectually
silenced by the issuing of bulletin at
night stating in substance that the cZar
had been out of his bed during the day,
but that his general condition was un-
changed. Today. however. the rumors
have been revived in an intensified.
form. Sabbath leisure and the gather
ing Of unusually large congregations,
attracted by tine special prayers for the
czar, assisted in the growth of the
rumor and speculation. 1t is every
where recognized that the doctors in
attendance upon the czar have no hope
of his recovery, and that they are only
devoting their efforts to prolong his
majesty's life until the
Arrival of Princess Alix -
at Yalta, so that her marriage to the
czarewitch may be celebrated before
his death. 1t is asserted that the physi-
clans have been compelled to turn their
attention to the czlrina, whose mind is
said to have been seriously affected by
the strain of nursing her husband. Last
night the theaters were as full as usual,
and the restaurants were crowded, The
city bears its usual aspect, only ting
eager and excited discussion in all the
public resorts indicates the impending
evils. The special services in all the
churches this morning were well at
tended. The reverence displayed and
the sincerity of the visitors show how
deeply the public mind is affected. In

ing. This morning an unofficial dis
patch was received from Livadia, stating
that the czar had passed a better night
and had been able to sleep little. This
somewhat alleviated the anxiety, al.
though even the official bulletins are
now received with suspicion. After
this bulletin nothing was received till 9
o'clock this evening, when another pri.
vate dispatch reported a slight improve
ment in his majesty's condition, also
that he had better appetite. This was
confirmed at II o'clock by the following
official bulletin:
Livadia, $50 p m.-During the past twen-
tyfour hours the emperor has had rather
more sleep. His majesty was up today as
as usual, and his appetite Is rather better. He
is more composed. Otherwise there is no
change.
This bulletin is signed by the five
physicians in attendance upon his
majesty. The crowds that had long
and patiently awaited the issue of the
bulletin, read and discussed it with ev-
ident relief, and then rapidly dispersed.
