The steamer Alfonso XII, having on
board ten boxes Of gold coin, each boz
worth City thousand dollars, struck on
n rock and sand at Grand Canary while
on . voyage from Cadiz TO Havana In
1854
II was ascertained that the specie
was at . depth Of one hundred and
sixty feet, and grave doubts were en-.
tcrtaincd of the possibility of any diver
being able to Withstand the tremen-
dous pressure incidental TO such .
depth, viz, sixty-scven pounds 10 every
superficial square inch Of his body.
Experiments at this depth were made
of Dartmouth aud two men, Lambert
and Tessicr. were found equal to the
pcrilous task, dresses having been pre-
at this great depth.
An expedition was sent out by the
marine insurance company, the divers
TO receive reward Of ave per cent, or
twenty-five hundred dollars on each
box recovered Lambert got up seven
aud Tessier two. So terrible was the
pressure that neither man could stay
below for more than = few minutes,
and LamberV some time after his re-
turn suffered from chronic paralysis
of the bowels, by which he was In
many respects reduced TO the hopslesa
condition Of . babe In the cradle. Prob
ably q tightly sealed kettle sent down
empty to the same depth would have
been crushed fiat
As il was the divers only succeeded
In finding nine boxes out OF the ten,
fifty thousand thus remaining below.
A subsequent expedition went In
search Of this box, and the diver, after
being down for twenty minuteA was
hauled up only to die. Not whit dis
couraged, another expedition went
ont with two divers from Germany.
The first of these was promptly
hauled up half dead, only to be sent
ashore to the hospital raving mad; the
other went down, hut returned, declar-
ing that no box was there. Whether
he really got SO far as the lazaretts
from which the boxes were taken II
open to doubt The pressure at such
depth must be positively crushing.
In the accounts of one Of the deep
sea dredging expeditions Il is mem
toned that when the trawl was raised
from n great depth the pressure proved
to have been such rs to crush together
the wood of the trawl beam SO that
the knots started out of it.-Isoston

Where Quantreil Lied.

From the Kansas CITY S.ar
There appeared in The Star v, sterday
= dispatch from Little Rock. Ark. gil
ing what purported 10 be Il tue account
" the death Of Quantirll. the enr,iiilY.
1t was to the effect that Captain S.iiJn
iiOrsely, before his death. had stated
that Quantrell was killed 10y Kentucky
cOnfederates on account of a raid he had
made near Bardstown. KY, in the
pring of 1865.
The Rev. Thomas Cobb. pastor Of
lie Methodist church at Thirteenth
md Brooklyn, knows something OF
luantrell's death, and this Is his
tory:
Il knew Captain lIorsely intimately.
lie was my warm friend. do not
believe lie made the statement attrill.-
ted to him In regard to the death of
luantrell. In December. 1864. Captain
iOrsely and myself went into the
'outhern counties OF Kentucky rs
avalry recruiting officers under the
authority Of General Forrest. and r-
NAMED there until 1866, when we sur
endcred 10 General John 81. Palmer
It Louisville.
while in that country we mt
-luantrell's band and Travelled AID
camped with 1t for two days and nights.
luantrell was on his way TO West
Virginia and Maryland to join Mosby.
IIorsely and Quantrell had many long
oalks and Quantrell urged US to go with
aim. Quantrell did not interfere with
The rights Of private citizens in that
country, and had no trouble with con-
federate troops. We left him and he
continued his march through Kentucky.
When he reached the central coun-
ties Of Kentucky, General Lee h.d
evacuated Petersburg and was on the
retreat, and II looked as IL the army
would surrender. Quantrell. therefore.
stopped his march to await develop
,nents. II was then that he had q
skirmish with federal troops, tie
Twelfth Kentucky Cavalry, and Was
seriously wounded. lie was not known
as Quantrell during that expedition, but
went under the name Of Captain Clark.
"iie was taken to Louisville and
placed In a hospital. lie sent for .
priest when he learned that he would
probably not survive his wounds and
asked to be sent to the Sisters hospital.
There he died and the body was burh d
in the Catholic cemetery in Louisville q
that Of Captain Clark.
II was paroled In Louisville about
that time by Colonel Folsom. One day
Colonel Folsom asked me IL knew
Quantrell, and told him did. Then
he asked me IL would identify him aud
I said would il he were dead. Then
you will not identify him IL he Is aliyey'
asked Colonel Folsom. No. replied.
| was taken to view body. but it was
not that OF Quantrell. But day OF DO
after, several OF Quantrell's g men saw the
dead body Of their leader In the Sisters
hospital and attended his funeral in the
Catholic cemetery. This I believe 10
the true story Of Quantrcll's death and
burial"

first recuits to Captain Frank Cockrell'I
company Of the Second Missouri In

LEWIS MAllns A srnoNc DEFENSE.
Evidence Introduced to Prove lie
Did Not Have to steal,

Kansas City, Mo. Jon. 1.-The trial
of Montgomery II. Lewis, charged with
forgery while in the employ of the Lom-
bard Investment company in lS9O-9l,
was resumed before the criminal court
at Independence this morning. The de-
Tense opened with a deposition from IL
M. Harmon. who. with the de-
fcndant and Il. b. Stowe, was Interested
in silver mine. Harmon's deposition
sets forth that the mine in which Lewis
was interested was sold by them in
February, 1891. Lewis receiving over
$4,000 for his share OF the mine. John
w. Moore, the grain and commission
merchant, was examined in corrobora-
ton OF the Harmon deposition. and
testified to having paid over $4,000 for
the mining property referred to. This
evidence Is expected to explain the
large amount OF banking done by Lewis
during the period in which he is charged
with populations from the investment
company. Evidence was presented
to show that the chirosraphy of Cashier
Russell and that OF Lewis were so much
alike that they could not be distin-
gulshed one from the other The de-
tense wants TO throw the onus OF the
defalcltion on eN-Cashier Russell, who
is in Mexico.
