THE STEAMSHIP DISASTER.
No Hope of Any More Passengers of the Elbe Having Been Saved-The Crathie's Captains Defense.

No Hope of Any More Passengers of the
 Elbe Having Been Saved-The Crathie's
 Captains Defense.
 LowEsToFT, Feb. 2.-Messages this morning from all of the life-saving and coast guard stations show that no ad- ditional news has been received in re- gard to the loss of the North German Lloyd steamship Elbe and no trace has been found of the missing lifeboat, supposed to contain people from that steamer. However, the sea is so rough that many of the fishing smacks are unable to make port and are beating up and down the coast waiting for a chance to run into some harbor. In reply to a message of sympathy from Queen Victoria, the agent here of the North German Lloyd Steamship Co. has telegraphed that no hopes what ever are entertained of any more of the passengers or crew of the steamship Elbe having been saved
 THE cRATHIE's CAPTAINS DEFENSE.
 ROTTERDAM, Feb. 2.-Capt. Gordon of the British steamship Crathie, which is generally admitted to have been the vessel which ran into and sank the Elbe, has made statement to Lloyd's agent here in which he says he was knocked down by the force of the collision and that when he regained his feet the two vessels were some distance apart, and the Crathie was so damaged that he ex- pected her to sink at any moment In spite of this, he added, he followed the other steamer, but found that she went faster than the Crathie, and so he thought the vessel she had collided with was safe.

BOARDING GOLD.
Capitalists with Money Rush to the Treas-
 ury and Draw Out Gold.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-The treasury department has received the most con- vincing evidence of the widespread hoarding of gold. The condition already borders on panic. Usually when gold is withdrawn for export the reports to the treasury show that it has been taken out by few persons. Sev- eral millions might be withdrawn and the returns to the treasury would show only three or four firms acting. But within week the reports to the treasury have undergone great change. Yesterdays withdrawals made list of names which would fill half a column in a newspaper. The sums taken ranged as low as S1000O. There was no uniformity about the amounts, and few were large. It was evident at glance that capitalists with ready money were rushing to the treasury and drawing out gold to hoard. But a very small part of the millions with drawn yesterday was for export, and the treasury officials recognized the fact as soon as they saw the list.

SCRAP IN THE HOUSE.
Personal Encounter Between Breckinridge,
 of Kentucky, and Heard, of Missouri.

of Kentucky, and Heard, of Missouri.
 WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-In the house yesterday MT. Heard, of Missouri, trict of Columbia, became angry be. cause Mir. Breckinridge, of Kentucky, tried to bring the Hawaiian question forward in the time devoted to his committee and attempted to secure the floor. The beginning of the contro- versy was not plain, but suddenly the two sprang toward each other, Mir. Breclsinridge shouting: "You cur, scoundrel and liar," and struck at the member from Missouri fierce blow which missed him.
 Instantly the two were seized by other members, but struggled fiercely to get at each other, each shouting Liar" Mir. Pence, of Colorado, had Mir. Brecllinridge by the throat and Mir. McCreary, of Kentucky, climbed over several seats and held him by the shoulder. For three or four minutes there was wild scrambling resembling a football rush, while all of the mem- bers in the house poured into the aisle and the greatest confusion reigned.
 The pounding of the speakers gavel could not be heard, but Mir. Crisp's voice rang above the tumult, shouting: '"rhe sergeant-at-arms will arrest the members" and then 1.-The sergeant-at- arms will bring them before the bar of the house."
 Deputy Sergeant-at-Arms Isaac Hill rushed down the aisle, bearing the great mace, followed by his assistants. The two members were then brought before the speakers desk, two men on each side holding their arms and Rep resentative Dockery, of Missouri, stand ing behind them.
 Both members subsequently, apolo- gized to the house.

Fire at Clifton, Ok,

OKLAHOMA CITY, Ok, Feb. 2.-Fire destroyed the merchandise stock and store buildings of Frank Layton and Aver X Co.,, at Clifton, 50 miles east of this city, at o'clock yesterday morn- ing, entailing loss of some SS, 900. Layton resided with his family above his store, and the first that was known of the fire was the cracking of the flames. He and his family escaped in their night clothes, and not an article was saved from their store. There was no insurance. Both will rebuild immediately, as Clifton is the center of an excellent country and the firms had established good trade.

 LEAvENwoRTH, Kan, Feb. 2.-The 800 people who sat down to Leaven- worth's banquet to her honored son, Hon. Lucien Baker, last night formed one of the most brilliant assemblages either this city or Kansas has ever known. Turner hall was handsomely decorated for the occasion with bunt- ing, flags and floral pieces. An orchestra stationed in one of the galleries played soft music, inter- spersed with songs from TopeSa's Modoc club and by vocal and instru- mental selections from some invisible source in Kansas City, which fioated out over the audience from four large audiphones swinging from the chande- Hers. The tables sparkled with sil- yer and cut glass, set off by snowy damask. Covers were laid for 300 guests, and at each plate was handsome boutonniere. The flowers and plants were contributed by Gov. Smith, of the Soldiers home. The banquet was one of the most elab- crate ever given in Leavenworth. Hon. J. H. Gilpatrick was toastmaster. Speeches were made by Senator-elect Baker, Gov. Merrill, J. R. Burton, Da. vid Overmyer, Senator O'Bryan, J. K. Cubbison, $. O. Thachcr, J. W. Ady and many other gentlemen of note.

DEADLY HOSPITAL FLAMES.
An Heroic Nurse, Two Patients and n Baby
 Lost In a Cleveland Fire.

An Heroic Nurse, Two Patients and a Baby Lost In a Cleveland Fire.
 CLEVELAND, O., Feb. Fire started in the basement of the Deaconness hospital home on Jennings avenue, presumably from the furnace, at II o'clock to-day. and before it could be extinguished four of the fifteen patients were dead and the build- ing almost entirely destroyed. The flames had gained considera ble head way before the persons on the top floor discovered their perilous situation. It was then too late to descend by the stairs. Before the fire department had arrived the flames had reached the out side of the building. Minnie Baumer, one of the nurses appeared at an upper window and implored those below to assist her in getting out her patient, William Allmeyer. She was advised to jump to the porch and save herself, but she replied: 'I cannot leave my patient" and turned, evi- dently to quiet the fears of Allmeyer, who thought she was going to leave him. Flo, moment she stood looking into the crowd and then she turned into the room and was seen no more until her blackened form was carried, with that of her patient, from the building shortly after.
 Four men were taken from the burn ing building, one being caught in a blanket Jacob Krause was found at the foot of the stairs leading to the third floor. He had been suffering from fractured skull, and. was suffo- cated. An s-months-old baby was the fourth victim

NEW FIELD FOR WHEAT.
How Four Million Bushels Year Might Be
 Disposed Of In Italy.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-United States Commercial Agent Huntington at Cas- tellaminari, Italy, in a report to the state department suggests that United States grain growers might secure a market for nearly 100000 bushels of wheat per annum, which is the amount of foreign wheat used in Italy in mak- ing macaroni, if some provision should be made for the entry into the United States at a reduced duty of Italian macaroni made from American wheat. The Italian government already allows a full drawback of the duty on foreign wheat milled and exported from Italy.

THE PESO COMPANY.

The above is the style of the firm which manufactures Piso's Cure for Consumption and Piso's Remedy for Catarrh, at Warren, Pa. The company was recently incorpor- ated, succeeding E. T. Hazeltine, under whose name the business has been con- ducted for many years. In fact the busi- ness was established in 1864, when S95 was paid for the first barrel of sugar bought, that was B cents a pound ;other things were proportionately high, as much of the Piso Cure is now sold for 25 cents as was then for Sl.G0.
 While the firm has been very persistent advertiser in newspapers, its aggregate out lay annually has been comparatively small, so that the steady and rapid increase in sales to their present large proportions cer- tainly indicates that Piso's Cure for Con- sumption possesses high merit as remedy for coughs, colds and throat and lung troubles generally. The pleasant taste of the cure has doubtless contributed materi- ally to it's popularity.
 Growth in business has necessitated the invention of numerous labor-SaVlng ma chimes. Notable among these are apparatus for washing, filling, corking and scaling bottles with which three men easily turn out 2,000 bottles an hour. In the advertis- ing department improved machines in the bindery finish 100000 Pocket Book Alma macs in day with only twenty operators. Another labor saver is the box machine on which one man puts together thousand cartons daily which are filled with dozen Piso's Cure for Consumption by another man in the same space of time.
 The Piso Company gives steady employ ment to a small army of workers, of both sexes, and its uniform liberal treatment of employees is topic of much favorable com ment among the citizens of Warren. Alto gether the prosperity of the company ap- pears to be peculiarly deserved.
