Will They Get ItP

Washington, Nov. 27-The action of the Ohio and Indiana delegations in con- gress in their respective caucuses tonight practically settled the contest of the cleo tive officers of the house of representa- lives. Ohio decided to cast her nineteen votes for the so-called combine ticket egation went the same way. H. U. John ston of the Richmond district declared his intention to vote for MT. Henderson for clerk.
 Although Major McDowell claimed ear- Her in the evening to have votes to spare, after the result of these caucuses was announced to him he revised his fig ures and said at the lowest estimate he then had 161 votes. But 125 are necessary to nominate. The postmastership of the house, which was assigned to Ohio by the combine, was tonight filled by the in- dorsement by the Ohio caucuses of Capt. J. c. McElroy of Syracuse, O., who start ed with five votes and who was finally selected on the tenth ballot. Captain Me Elroy was an old soldier and served as Ohio Volunteer infantry, the regiment commanded by General Grosvenor.
 The ticket whose nomination the events of tonight seem to foreshadow, and which will doubtless receive the majority vote of Saturdays night caucus, is as follows: Clerk, Alexander McDowell of Pennsylvania; doorkeeper, w. D. Glenn of New York; Sergeant-at-arms, B. F.. Russell of Missouri; postmaster, J. C.. McElroy of Ohio.

THE IRON TRADE REVIEW.


 Cleveland, O.. Nov. 27.-The Iron Trade Review today says:
 The week has brought little change in current buying of orders for iron and steel, and has furnished little new light on what may be expected as to new prices or demand when the new year opens. It is generally agreed that the five weeks will be given up to quiet and to maneuvering for positions.
 Producers of pig iron, as a rule, con- tinue to regard the present situation as containing several parts of artificial or induced weakness to one part that is legitimate and due to an attempt to adjust itself. It is not expected, how ever that the statistics of December 1 will show a reduction of stocks in Mo- vember, since consumption has been cur tailed in. several directions. Another element is the fact that shipments from furnace yards do not indicate consump- tion in all cases, and on some contracts later deliveries are being asked. Current sales for Bessemer iron for prompt de- livery are s1225 in the valley, and this has been accepted in one or two cases by furnaces whose output will be some what larger for the balance of the year than was counted. A sale of 5000 tons of Bessemer for delivery in the first quarter of 1896 is reported at SIS, valley furnace, and a sale of 10000 tons at a price some what better

Hawaiian Advices.

San Francisco, Nov. N.-The corre- spondent of the United Press, per steam CT Australia, from Honolulu, under date of November 20 says: Everything is quiet here. Business is active. The rainy season has fairly set in. together with cold weather temperature. Since the declaration made by the new Japa- nese commissioner, Shimamura. on the day of his arrival, that he intended to actively prosecute the discussion with this government regarding the failure to fulfill their engagements in their immi- grafton treaty with Japan, he has re- mained silent. It Is now believed that he was also cautioned by Consul Shu- nidsu, in obedience to instructions from their legation at Washington, not to take any aggressive attitude such as would give color to the allegation of Minister Castlet that Japan had designs on Ha- waii That would be desirable at the opening of the session in which the Ha- Waiian question would come up.

THE HORSA DETAINED.
The Collector of the Post Refused to Grant Her Clearance Papers-West Indian Trade
 Being Hurt.

Philadelphia, Nov. 27.-The Danish fruit steamer Horsa, over. whose reported seizure for Cuban filibustering in King ston. Jamaica, there has been considera- bic talk, arrived here today. and dis charged her cargo at the wharves of her agents, the J. D. Hart company.
 The officers of the steamer denied that she had been seized at Kingston, and complained of untrue stories having been written about the vessel. It was the intention of Captain sWilburg to clear either today or tomorrow, but the col lector of port Read. at the instance Of District Attorney Ingham, refused to grant the steamer clearance. papers IL is understood that the district attorney is acting under instructions from the deparment of justice at Washington. and that the Spanish government is the com plainant on the ground that the vessel is violating the neutrality laws Unless the matter should be adjusted the Horsa will be obliged to remain at this port.
 The Horsa carried one cabin passen- ger, William Dougherity. a railroad con- tractor, wac returned to his home in Pennsylvania from Port Antonio, Jamai- ca. There were also several deck pas sengers, all laborers.
 Horsa, P. Gray Meek. surveyor of the port. expressed himself very decidedly on the affair. He said:
 '"There is entirely too much seizure of vessels on suspicion. Every ship that has left this port bound for Cuban waters during the summer has been closely watched. and everything has been all right when they left here. The Horsa was cleared on the sth instant by Inspector

HE MlSTOOK THE LIGHTS.
A Schooner and Cargo Was Wrecked on the Jacksonville Jetties Through the
 Captains Mistake.

Jacksonville, Fla, Nov. G.-The schooner H. 8. Lanefair, Captain John- son, bound from Baltimore to this port, pounded across the north jetty at 2 o'clock this morning and is now beached in the river with her bottom badly in- jured and her cargo is also badly dam aged. The cargo consisted of HOO barrels Of oil, sixty tons of salt and miscella- neous packages consigned in part to the Standard Oil company and to John G. Christopher, resident manager.
 The accident occurred by a mistake of Captain Johnson in reading the lights. The captain was at the wheel at the time and the pilot was below asleep in the captains bunk. hence no blame can be attached to the pilot
 The vessel missed the mouth of the jetty and struck on the shoals north of the north jetty. The tide was making inward and she pounded southward and over the jetty. The vessel was imme- dlately put to sea and anchored off the bar. At daylight this morning the tug Kate Spencer went out and found that tbe schooner had 10 feet of water in her hold and was rapidly sinking. hawser was attached, the anchor was slipped and the Spencer brought the vessel in side.
 When inside Captain Johnson halloed to Captain Broward of the tug that he was sinking rapidly. Captain Broward accordingly beaehed her: The Lainfair TOW lies between Pilot Town and Mile Point.
 The schooner Lainfair was 138 feet long, 32 feet beam, 10 feet depth of hold and was of 402 gross and 3S2 net ton- age. She was built In Baltimore In 7s4 and was owned by Gray. Ireland & Co. and others of that city.

J. H. O'Neln Is Missing.

Boston. Nov. 27.-A special to the Globe from Providence. R. l., says Treasurer J. H. O'Neill of the American Handsewed Shoe company, and the confident agent of President Joseph Banigan of the United States Rubber company, has mysterious ly disappeared from the city. He left a week ago and nothing has been heard of his whereabouts since that time. The officials of the company are now engaged in making an examination of his affairs For the company of which he was treas urer he handled large amount of money in the neighborhood of s50,000 a month The offices here was the settling place for the general offices, which is located in Omaha, Neb.
 In January last beside being treasurer and secretary, O'Neill was elected the general manager of the whole concern.
 A week ago O'Neil told confident that he was going away for a day or two. He asked this friend to pick up all his personal papers and correspondence and burn them, and to put everything into shape so that if any one wished to do so they could make an examination of his business.
 O'Neill is thought by friends to have taken his life through despondency and physical ailments.
 The Guarantee Company of North America is surety for the missing man on bond of $10 900.

SMALL LOSS OF LIFE.
Out of Six Hundred Million Steamboat Passen- gers Only One Hundred and Forty Eight Were Killed.

Washington, Nov. 27.-The report of Supervising Inspector-General Dumont of the steamboat inspection service, made public today, estimates the number of passengers carried on steamboats dur ing the year at between 600,000,000 and TOO, 100000 and states the loss of life at 394,. of whom 14S were passengers and 246 were officers or persons employed by the steamers. In view of the hearty sup port given to the bureau by the secre- tary of the treasury to the efforts to- ward improving the personnel of the ser vice by requiring a higher standard of qualifications, which has been secured by a regulation compelling a written practical examination for all applicants for appointment as local or assistant in spectors to ascertain their educational as we'll as technical abilities, the inspect or-general suggests that the regulations be followed by such regulations as will secure permanency in office of officers appointed under them.

HER CARGO ON FIRE.
A Steamer From New Orleans, Loaded With Cotton and Grain, Puts Into Bos-
 ton in Distress.

Boston, Mass, Nov. 27.-The Hamburg American line steamer Galicia, bound from New Orleans for Hamburg, put into this port today with her cargo on fire, and anchored in the harbor.
 The Galicia left New Orleans on Mo- vember 16, heavily laden, her cargo con- sisting principally of cotton and grain Captain Peitsch, the commander, states that the passage was without incident until Monday, although considerable bad weather was encountered coming up the coast. On Monday night the chief off, Ger, who was on the steamers bridge, discovered tongues of flame coming through the msin deck. The alarm was immediately given, and the entire crew, who, with the exception of the watch, were below, hastened on deck, and also set to work to extinguish the flames, which had apparently gained considera- ble headway. Captain Petsch directed the work of the fire brigade, and upon his orders holes were cut in the deck and several streams of water directed into the mainhold through these apertures. At the time the fire was discovered the steamer was about 300 miles east of Bos- ton, and as the efforts of the crew to ex- tinguish the flames proved unavailing, the captain decided to make this port for assistance. The fire Is confined to the main hold, which Is filled with grain and cotton.
 From the time the fire was discovered the officers and crew have been con- stantly at work fighting it. The crew worked at a great disadvantage, but managed to control the fire so that 1t did not spread to the other parts of the ship. There are three streams from the steam CTS hose constantly playing on the fire, and this evening the services of a tug and the fireboat were enlisted. It Is the opinion of Captain Peitsch that the cargo of grain is badly damaged, if not wholly ruined. The cargo is probably badly damaged by fire and water. The extent of the damage cannot possibly be esti- mated until the fire is extinguished and the cargo discharged. The steamers decks are considerably warped from the heat, and she is otherwise damaged. The agents of the Hamburg-American line in this city are making arrangements for the discharge of the cargo.

HAWAII'S NEW MINISTER. He Stopped in New Orleans Where He Was
 Interviewed.

New Orleans, Nov. 27.-Mr. F. M. Hatch, the minister of Hawaii to this country, arrived in this city today at 6 o'clock a. m. by the Southern Pacific on his way to Washington. He stopped over here today and left tonight over the Lou isville and Nashville for Washington
 In an interview with a representative of the Southern Associated Press Mr. Hatch said: T will say that the condi- ton of Hawaii at the present time is fairly prosperous, despite the fact that the low price of sugar has retarded com mercial advance. I am going to Wash ington to present my credentials to the government of the United States as the duly accredited minister to it from the republic of Hawaii I shall remain at your capital for an indefinite period.
 "The ex-queen is residing quietly and without guard. She is nothing more now than private citizen of the country. I think that all royalist aspirations have been extinguished thoroughly. Anyway, none Is discovered. and it looks as though the people were quite satisfied with an existence under republican form of law. The Dole government is a stable one. and, unforeseen circumstances ex- cepted. will last for some time."
