straining of the ship was reported and
then the dock was flooded TO a depth
OF IL feet, as far as the water could
be admitted without danger OF disturb
ing the position of the Texas on the
blocks. Commandant Sycard called for
a detailed account of the injuries sus-
tained to the ship, and in return re-
ceived from the constructor a report
stating exactly and by number the
injured frames and where they were
located. This report was transmitted
to the navy department with the state
ment by the commandant that no de-
delayed work then progressing on the
ship would ensue and that the strain
ing appeared due to the weight of the
ship on the keel blocks. The depart
ment was not altogether satisfied and
has now called for still further particu-
lars regarding the report so far made
as preliminary. 1t appears from these
reports that 21 of the bottom frames
and brackets of the Texas are buckled
from a quarter of an inch to an inch
and half, while the cement lining of
the double bottom is cracked in many
places. Whether 1t will be necessary
to undertake to repair these frames
and remove the dents in the bottom
cannot be told until a further examina-
tion Is made, and to do this Ii may be
necessary to remove all the weights of
the ship in order to draw off the water
safely, otherwise the strains might
again become excessive and irreparable
injury follow.

This Crank Intended to Kul q. NJ Pull
man anu Hi Manager.
Chicago, Nov. 12.-The life OF George
NJ. Pullman and that of John B. Grif-
fin. the manager of the Pullman build
ing in this city. was menaced by an
insane man tonight. Both men were
to have been shot and killed on or be-
fore the 18th and 9th OF this month.
The delay of the maniac in making up
his mind who should be the first VIC
tim gave the police time to arrest him.
The prisoner is William Sherman. who
has been employed as a window cleaner
around the Pullman building. A
woman fortune teller is at present held
responsible for the suggestion that
placed the lives OF Pullman and his
manager in jeopardy. and the police
are now endeavoring to find her and
ask why she advised her patrons TO
commit murder.
At S O'Clock tonight word was
brought to Manager Griffin that Sher-
man was going about the building
making threats to kill him and Mr..
Pullman. Griffin at once started out
to find the window cleaner, but he
had left the building after repeating
his threats to several people. Griffin
then sent word TO the police and two
officers were sent out to look for sher-
man. After searching for some time
they found him and took him into
custody. He had no hesitation in de-
claring that he intended TO kill either
Mr.. Pullman or Mr.. Griffin. or both OF
them. He said that during the after
noon he had consulted fortune teller
because he was unable TO sleep. The
woman told him that he was troubled
by secret enemies and unless he killed
them before Nov. II or q they would
kill him. She described the men to him
and these descriptions were those OF
Mr.. Pullman and Mr.. Griffin. The
man was palpably insane and was re-
moved 10 the detention hospital.

the visit to this city of Receiver Bur-
leigh of the Northern Pacific, President
Rolston Of the Farmers Loan & Trust
company and prominent counsel OF diff
ferent interests in the bankrupt rail-
road property, an agreement has been
reached which promises to result in a

Gilbert OF the Ninth circuit and United
States Judge Hanford of Washington
to-day discussed the present receiver
ship complications and later Judge Gill
bert, in chambers, announced decision
of great relative interest to the parties
concerned. For the present. the deci-
sion is not made public, and its exact
purpose is not made known outside of
the small circle of railroad men and
attorneys who were present when ii
was delivered. 1t has been learned
upon positive authority, however, that
the decision may be considered to be
the inittatory action for a sole receiver
ship that will, in all probability. be,
confirmed by the other courts having
