A GALE ON THE LAKE.

The Hardest and Longest BIOw of the
 Year-Vessels Dare Not Venture Abroad
 A EooIhardy Martner-schonners Ashore
 Freight Train Stuck in the sand
 @haryes Submerged and the Sea Rolling
 Over the Piers.
 ST. osEPH, Mich, Sept. 29-The hardest storm and of the longest dura- tion which has ragged here since last fall commenced Saturday morning and has as yet abated but little. No steamers have left here since Friday night, and much fruit is now lying on the docks awaiting transportation. The steamer Puritan, probably to make a record, foolishly left Chicago this morning in the face of the gale arriving three miles off this port at II o'clock. She was rolling and pound- ing very badly, and could only be seen portion of the time. The waves were rolling over the piers and she could not enter and started off on the Milwaukee route.
 Two schooners were reported this afternoon as being ashore between here and South Haven, but the report can not yet be confirmed. The wind has whipped the remaining fruit off the trees and blown several small houses down and torn shade trees up by the roots, besides damaging tele- graphic communication.
 Early this morning freight train on the Chicago < West Michigan rail road was stuck in the sand that had been blown on the track during the night Gangs of shovelers were put to woil and cleared it after several hours work
 The excursion train from Grand Rap ids was delayed by the engine being damaged in its efforts to pull through the sand obstruction along the tracks
 Reports from Muskegon say that one of the worst lake gale ever known has been raging there for Iwentv-faur hours and waves have rolled higher than for many years, sabmerging wharves and doing considerable dam age. The steamers of the Goodrich line did not leave port last night, ow- ing to the roughness of the lake To- day the lake has been in an angry mood and no small craft could weather the sea. Several boats are sheltered here waiting for the lake toe calm down.
 At Holland ffty-mile-an-hour northwest gale ragged last night. The sea is rolling over the piers. The Hol- land-Chicago trans portation boats were ordered to remain in port last night. The tug Deer and scow, Of Grand Ha- ven, are sheltered there The Bon Voyage is still on the beach at Kings dock, and the work of securing her re- lease will be begun as soon as the sea subsides.

 Gen. Scbofelds term of office ex- pired at noon Saturday, and for some time past speculation had been rife about who the new commander would be
 Gen Niles, by reason of his senior ity, was generally regarded as the most probable new head of the army, although in many circles it was as serted that there was a great likeli- hood of the president promoting Gen. Ruger or Gen Merritt, but the ap- pointment of Gen Miles has been set finally at rest.
 Gen. Miles was seen by Tribune reporter, and replying to an inquiry said that he had been officially in- formed by the president of his ap- pointment to the supreme command of the army.

IN SYMPATHY WITH CUBA.
Bright Prospects for To-Ntght.s Big Meet
 Ing in Chicago


 CHICAGO, Sept 30 All arrangements have been completed for the meeting of Cuban sympathizers to be held in Central Music hall tonight. The pro- gramme includes addresses from lead ing citizens of Chicago, who are inter- ested in the struggle for independence now in progress just south of Florida. So great has been the manifestation of interest and sympathy that the com mittee has rented Association hall, as well as Central Music hall, and two meetings will be held.
 Gonzabe de Quesada, secretary of the Cuban revolutionary party. and o. A. zayas, of New York arrived in Chicago Saturday night as the invited guests of the Cuban Revolutionary club. 1t is not unlikely that they will address to-night's meetings. They come in the interest of the revolution in Cuba. their prime object being to look after the question of finance, arms and ammunition for the aid of their countrymen in Cuba.

 ON BOARD STEAMSHIP ST. PAUL, OFF REEDY ISLAND, Del, Sept. 29.-Ihe International Navigation Go. $ new steamship St. Paul left Cramps ship yard. Philadelphia, this morning at 7:1o o'clock for her trial trip and made the run of 40 miles to Reedy island in four hours When the vessel arrived off here anchor was dropped to await the high tide.
 Although it was Sunday morning, and Philadelphia's river front was practically deserted, the St Paul was saluted by every steam craft she passed, and her whistle was almost constantly replying to salutes until she had passed the city.
 It is a matter of no small danger for a ship of the s. Paul's draught to make her way over the shoats in the Delaware river, and Pilot Lewis Cham bers picked the way as carefully as an old woman crossing the crowded streets Of g busy city, and at no time did h push the St. Paul faster than thirtee knots.
 The an chor was weighed at o'cloC this evening and the course shaped f Delaware breakwater. The run the breakwater-65 miles-will made in about four and one-ht hours. The ship tonight will anch at The Brown, few miles above breakwater.
 Tomorrow morning eempasses v be adjusted and officials of the In; national Navigation Go. and few vited guests will be taken abo from Lewes. Del. where they came train from Philadelphia. Then the Paul will go to sea, the course be shaped for Gloucester. Mass.
 It is expected that the ship will rive off Gloucester some time Tue. afternoon. She will not enter Be harbor, but, weather permitting, come to anchor off Gloucester. naval officials constituting the go ment trial board will come aboa Gloucester, and on Wednesday trial run will be made. Afte trial the ship will proceed to York, arriving there Thursday

THE FATE OF FRANK LENz.
Murdered by Kurds to secure His Bicycle
 Which They Thought was Silver.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Sept 90. Drank Lenz, the bicycle rider, was beyond doubt murdered by the Kurds in Tchelkain, Armenia. in May, 1891 A sworn affidavit made by Ehoser Zemsiran was received by the exe- cutors of Lenz's estate in this city Saturday. The affidavit was taken at Erzeroum, Armenia. by the British consul. Zemsiran started to search for Lenz and located parts of his bicycle near Tchelkain He also learned that a body was found in a stream near that place, which was undoubtedly that of the unfortunate rider Lenz stopped in this village one night and was never again seen alive. The natives thought his wheel was of silver, and murdered him and broke mp his bicycle and divided the different parts.
 Sachtleben, who is searching for Lenz, has probably by this time reached the spot where Eenz lost his life
