ON THE iona !.
Seven Lives Lost in a Fire on a British
Steamer.
PANIC AMONG THE PASSENGERS
They Are Driven Out of Their Berths in
Their Night Clothes-A Number In
jured in Their Efforts to Escape
From the Burning Vessel.

LONDON, Sept. 17-The London and
Edinburgh Steamship companys steamer
Iona, plying between Leith and London,
caught fire on her trip to Gravesend yes
terday, The fire started in her cabin and
five women and one child, passengers and
the stewardess were burned to death and
number of others were badly burned and
otherwise injured. The fire was extin-
guished by the use of the ships fire ap-
paratus.
The steamer Iona left Leith Saturday
evening at o'clock with hundred saloon
passengers and fifty second class passen-
gers. The part of the boat in which the
second class passengers slept was used as a
saloon during the day, and at night it was
divided by a partition into sleeping COM
partments for women and men.
Early in the morning fire was discov-
cred in the ladies compartment on the
port side The flames spread so rapidly
and the clouds of smoke were so sitting
that the crew were prevented from rescu-
ing all of the passengers, being several
times driven away from the burning part
of the ship. The fire was gotten under
control about 4 o'clock, when the charred
bodies of seven persons were found in their
blaths, so badly burned rs to be unrecog-
nizable
During the progress of the flames the
widest excitement prevailed among the
passengers. The saloon passengers-men,
women and children-rushed on deck,
some of them almost naked, the women
screaming and the children crying and it
was not until the flames were subdued
that they could be paciied.
The ladies cabin was completely demol-
ished Some of the lGlled appeared to
have fallen from their berths in their
efforts to escape, and their bodies were
found lying almost in ashes on the floor.
The fire originated in the lamp room,
which adjoined the cabin.

THE SHOOTING Of N'HALE..
Change in the Victims Condition and
MeleShkO Re-arreSted.
A COLD AGGRAYATES THE WOUND
The Accused Lithuanian Causes the Arrest
of Evans, Whom he Charges With
Having Caused the Array Hear
ing in the Case Postponed.

The shooting of James, alias "Sim"
McIIale, has taken more serious turn than
was anticipated. Last night message was
sent to Justice Williams that the condition
Of the victim was precarious and Paul Me
leshko the Lithuanian charged with the
shooting and who was under $500 bail, was at
once re-arrested and committed to the lookup
to await further developments.
An EVENING HERALD reporter called at
the McHale residence, ON West Lloyd street,
to-day and was informed that McHale was
very weak and confined to bed. He caught
cold in the wound while attending the hear
ing on Sunday night and the slightest move
ment of the head causes hemmorrhage. One
of his eyes is badly swollen and his general
condition alarmed his family. If he regains
sufficient strength, it was stated, he will be
sent to the Miners hospital tomorrow.
Last evening Justice Williams had the case
before him in another shape Meleshko had
sworn out warrant for the arrest of William
Evans, who is charged with having caused
the fight that led to the shooting.
Meleshko stated under oath that Evans
stopped him at the scene of the conflict and
asked for a match and chew of tobacco, and
upon failing to get them he knocked Me-
leshko off the pavement. The fight then
started and eliminated in the shooting Me
leshko also claims that McHale and his friends
had hand in the fight before the shoot
ing occurred. At the same time he swears
he had no revolver and McHale must have
been accidentally shot by one of his friends
or the Evans crowd.
Evans was present at the hearing, but
John Curry and Joseph German, who were
with him during the fight, were absent
German lives in Girardville and Curry was
absent on account of the death of his uncle,
at Centralia.
After hearing the statements of several
witnesses Justice Williams concluded to post
pone the hearing of the case until the attend
ance Of Curry and German can be secured on
Wednesday night
Many prominent Lithuanian people have
interested themselves in the case They
claim that it has become a habit for young
men to stop their countrymen on the streets
late at night and ask them for matches, or
under some other trihing excuse and when
the request is not complied with it is a signal
for fight in which the intimidated party is
invariably beaten numerically, and fire.
quently robbed of whatever valuables they
may have upon their persons In the present
case, they claim, the attacking party suffered
by mistake of one of its own members,
