October IS in answer TO an Indictment
found against him at the April term on
the ground that he was living illegally
with the members of his flock at Zion,
4 short distance south of this city.
Hypnotism, no doubt, will play an i'm
DOrtant part in the trial. 1t would seem
from these limitations, that the Rock
ford Messiah" possesses more of the
occult power than Du Maurier's villain,
and has used it successfully on dozens
of subjects.
The main feature of the celebrated
case will be the argument brought up by
the prosecution to show that SChWein-
furth has been violating the law in his
manner OF living. Inc state mas tried
to indict Schweinfurth before but has
never succeeded. The fact that the in
dictment has been secured gives the
that the testimony on this occasion will
be sufficient to establish his guilt

1.-The report from Cuba that General
Campos is insane is probably unfounded.
its value as news is on a par with four
Gfths of the so-called news Of the Cuban
rebellion. If there has been any depar,,

a dispatch comes by way of Sahto

hre. In the city of Santo SpirituS alone,
fifteen houses belonging to the count of
Lershundi, among them the private resi-

Stroyed by fire within the past week.
A message has just been received from
MatanzaS, stating that many fires Of in
cendiary origin have occurred in that
city also during the past week The ag-
gregate losses will reach many thousands
Of dollars.
The houses burned in each case belong
ed to wealthy Span:ards.
Three handsome suburban residences in

SpanlardS, who had been contributing
money to the government, have been
burned by the insurgents. Loss $4,000.

He lad SO Regrets.

II assure you I have no regrets over
the results Of the convention. Indeed
the moment it was over I felt a sense
of relief that / had not had for six
months. The nomination of Garfield is
entirely satisfactory 10 me. The only
shade that rests on this feeling is the
fact that Garfield went there by nv
selection to represent me. and comes
from the convention with the honor
that 1 had sought.
I will do him the justice to say that
I have seen no evidence that he has
contributed to the result except by
his good conduct in the presence of the
convention. 1 had always locked with
great favor upon the contingency that

tual friends that this was my desire
The contingency Of Gar1eld's nomina-
ton I did not consider, for l supposed
that as he was secure in the senate
for six years, he would not desire the
presidency. but as it has come 90 him
without his self-seeking, it is honora-
bic and right and I have no cause of
complaint. If I had believed he had
used the position l gave him to sup
plant me, 1 would consider 1t dishon-
oraiole,

But. while such statements have been
made to me, feel bound to say that
I have never seen nor heard from cred

tmpatation, and therefore he shall have
my earnest and hearty support
There are ere or two fea tures of
this canvass that leave painful i'm
preston on me. The first is that the
opposition to me in Ohio was unreason-
able, without cause, either springing
from corrupt or bad motives or from
such trivial causes as would scarcely
Justify the pouting of a school boy.

SAN Francisco CAL, May 29.-The
steamship Colima, with lS2 persons
aboard. including passengers ana crew,
foundered off tue coast OF Mexico on
Monday. Fourteen passengers ana tlve
members Of the crew reached Manzanlta,
Mex, yesterday, and gave the first in
formation of the vessels fate. whether
the remainder Of the passengers and crew
escaped in small boats or went down with
the vessel is not known.
Definite but meagre information of the
disaster was received at II O'Clock last
night BY Il. II. Schwering, general man
ager and vice.president of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Co., to which corporation the
steamship belonged. A telegram informed
Mr.. Schwering that boat containing IA
passengers and five members of the crew
OF the steamer reached Manzanita yester-
day and gave the startling information
that the Colma had foundered the day
before not far from that port. The names
of the passengers and yeamen i'll the small
boat were not given i'll the dispatch.
Neither was there any information about
the remainder of the passengers and the
crew.
The Colima sailed from San Francisco
OH the 18th instant for Panama and wav
ports She carried liz passengers 40 in
the cabin and SO whites and 40 Chinese in
the steerage. The officers and crew num-
bered 40, making in all lS2 people on
board the steamer.
Alexander Center general agent of the
| company, says he is confident that other
boats will come in, but ii there was any
loss of life, it will be impossible to give 8
| full list of the dead, as ON her way down,
the vessel doubtless picked up other pas
sengers in addition to What she took from
this city. Richardson was the store
keeper on the Colima.
Ateegram has been received from the
coulpany's agent at Manzanilla. to thu
effect that the ship had gone down anc
that IA passengers and five of the crew hac
reached shore in small boat. Just how
| many of the passengers were aboard tht
vessel when the accident occurred which
sent her to the bottom cannot be ascer
tanned at present. The vessel stops a
Mazatlan and San Bias before reaching
Manzauila, and passengers were LANDED
and taken ON at both places.
The Coimn was due at Manzanilla OF
Sunday, the 18th instant. The dispatche
show that the vessel foundered oil Mon
day. the 9th, off Manzanilla, which
would indicate that some accident to tn
machinery occurred which retarded tn
progress of the vessel and prevented he
from reaching the port of Manzanilli
before she foundered.
The Colima was single screw prapello
with an iron hull. She was built in 1879
at Chester, Pa, by John Roach e. Son:
Her tonnage was ., 300 gross and ., l4S net
her horse power l, 100 and her speed IL

cargo and was valued at $l03,0O0.

Engineer Carswoli Has Made a Recon-
Nuisance of tho proposed Line.

Nuisance of tho proposed Line.
Engineer W. b. Carswell has laid out a
proposed route for the Wilmington IL
Brandvwine Springs Electric Railway Co.
According to Mr.. Carswell's plans, which
be will submit to the company in few
DAYS. The new road will start at either
Fourth and French or Fourth and Walnut
streets 1t will then go north to Sixth
street, then west tn Greenhill avenue. The
route here follows Greenhill avenue to the
centre road and down it and across the
tracks of the Wilmington " Northern
railroad into Elsmere.
What street the road will follow through
Elsmere cannot be told at present but
according to Mr.. Carswelrs plans 1t will
probably go along junction street and
then out along what is known as the new
road. 1t will run about 200 feet south of
this road to Prices shops, which is about a
half mile from Greenbank. What course
the line will take from Prices shop is
another question and Mr.. Carswell has
looked over several proposed routes.
One plan is to leave the line of the new
road at the shops and go to Marshaliton
and then follow the creek bank to Brandy
wine Springs. Another plan is to leave
out Marshallton, go to Greenoank and
from there follow the creek to the spring.
The third plan is TO leave ont both Mar
shallton and Greenbank, turn off the new
road at Prices shops and go directly To
Brandywine Springs. Mr.. Carswell has
made reconnaissance for the company
before making "a thorough survey and
marking out route.

washin ton Speaks of Two DaiaWarohns
TO succeed tho Late Secretary of state
Perry Brown Gets His Patent.
Special correspcndenue Of Gazette and Journal
WAsHrSGroY, May 29.--There is a great
deal of speculation to-day as to who Will
be called on to fill the vacant office OF
Secretary of State. Under the law the
President has 30 days in which to appoint
q successor and has not rs yet given the
subject any consideration. However. two
Deawareans are prominently spoken OF in
political circles as being especially fitted
for the position and there is probability
that Secretary Gresham's successor will be
from Delaware. 1t is regarded as quite
poss. BILE that Ambassador Bayard will be
offered the portfolio, and the fact that he
formerly filled the position, together with
his thorough familiarity with the I'M
portant questions between this country
and Great Britain adds strength to the
belief that he is more than possibility i'll
the present emergency:
Should however, Mr.. Bayard not be
chosen, Senator Gray is looked upon as
standing an excellent chance of selection.
He is thoroughly posted on all foreign
questions and disputes and was strong
supporter of the administrations policy
during the Behring sea and Hawaiian dis
Cussions, and has the respect and admira-
ton of both parties. The senatorial mud
die in Delaware may prevent his accept
nnce and the President may not be willing
TO lose his valuable support in the Senate.
A prominent Democrat to-day said in
speaking of the vacancy: THE President
| cannot find a man in his party who would
make better Secretary OF State than Sena-
tor Gray of Delaware. Mr., Gray is yalua-
| BILE man to his party and the leaders may
| not be satisfied to have him leave the SEN
ate, especially at this critical condition of
affairs"
The Commissioner of Patents has
