BLBE DISASTER. The Admiralty Court Renders a Decision In the Inquiry Made Into
 the Sinking Of the Elbe in Collision With
 the Steamer Crathie. The Court Holds That the Accident Was the Fault of the Mate of
 the Latter Snip.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
 BREMERHAvEN, Aug. 12.-The admir- alty court has rendered g decision in the inquiry made into the sinking of the steamship Elbe. in collision with the British steamer Crathie, in January last. The court holds that the blame of the collision must be attributed to the mate of the Crathie, who deserted his post immediately before the occurrence and went into the galley of the ship.
 The findings say that the officer in charge of the watch of the Elbe cannot, however, be freed from reproach in that he omitted to get out of the way of the Crathie by the timely mani pulation of the helm snd failed to at- tract attention of the crew of the Crathie bv signaling with the steam whistle. The court holds that the off, cers of the Elbe made every effort pos sible to save the lives of the passengers but odds were against them.

ferred counter complaint against her for conducting a disorderly and shady house. The evidence in regards to the latter charge was overwhelming and Mrs. Benjamin was requested to donate s5 to to the city.
 The case against Powell was dis. missed but the female had to dig up her assessment which she did at the same time requesting the court to take Turkish bath in hades or Tucson.
 After the above case was disposed of, Ed Luly and another offender, who an- swered to the useful name of John Doe, were ushered in to be tried for somno. lence produced by the potent fumes of xxx. The community does not us- ually care if man carries his jag to an out-of-the- way place to sleep it off, but when he drops down on the street to obstruct traffic, the case assumes 8 diff ferent aspect, SO for that offence they were fined $5 apiece and gave good se curity for the amount.
 The next criminals to be tried were from the reservation and named re- spectively Ne-Eput and Miss Vane Kelot, but when translated, John and Rainbow, ephonious names for buck and squaw. They were both drunk at the Santa Fe depot early yesterday morning where they were having q pyrotechni. cal display of their own. The noise was too much for the nelgh borhood and Officer Hooker was notified by tele. phone of an invasion by the "reds" and he proceeded thither and locked them up. The buck was fined $5 and she, the rainbow of single color, was allowed to depart.

 Mortar But Is Not Injured.
 Ed s. Keeley returned yesterday from the Santa Maria mines where he was engaged in putting up the mill for the Clark mine.
 He reports most lucky escape from instant death to one, Asa Bishop, also employed on the works.

When the men arrived at the scene ell that could be seen of Bishop was his head and feet sticking out from under the mortar. When the heavy load was taken from him after hard work, he was found to be senseless. Not bone in his body was broken and when he tell his head struck piece of timber rendering him unconscious. The mor- tar had fallen distance of about seven feet and when it strucd Bishop he was knocked to the ground but by provid- ential circumstance the mortar rested on an obstruction on the ground there by preventing Bishop from being crushed to death.

Gold Democrats Will Not Carry a Single Point in the State
 Largely Represented.

By the Associated Press.
 SPRINGFIELD, Ills., Aug. 12.-Secre- tary of State Hinricksen, chairman of the Democratic state central committee, in speaking of the national conference of silver men to be held in Washing ton. August IA, said today that Illinois would be represented by large delegs- ton of the leading and influential Democrats. The free silver feeling is stronger in this state, he said, than at the time of the free silver convention. The gold Democrats. he claims, could not carry single county in the state.
 AS to the coming elections in Illinois. he said: ''Illinois will send free sil- yer delegation to the national conven- tion and on the free silver platform we will carry the state by 50,000 majority {; while on the gold platform we will be as badly beaten as we were last fali."

RECORDERS COURT.
A Day of Jags and Petty Dis
 turbanceS.
The Case of Chas. Powell and Mrs Beniamin-Two Indians Give
 Spirit Dance.

Business in pulice court is beginning to revive and his honor, Recorder Jobs, is in position to help fill up the ranks of Marshal Clark's chain gang.
 The first case that came up for adju- dication yesterday was the charge against Chas. Powell, who the com plaint alleged had disturbed the peace of the ne1ghborhood on Powell's row, Jackson street. Powell was arrested on Sunday morning about l o'clock by Officer Bailey at the instigation of a colored woman known as Mrs. Mary Benjamin. She tearfully told the officer that the "niggah Powell" was running things to suit himself in her household and ehe was unable to eject him from the premises. Powell was arrested and brought before the re. corder. There were witnesses galore, both for the prosecution and defense. When Mrs. Benjnmin entered the court room with her dasky complexion har- moniously in contrast with fnery of the most varigated colors, she smiled sweetly on the judge and witnesses and said she was ready to send that nige CT to jail. The evidence, however, did not agree with Mrs.. Benjamin's expecta- tions for from the evidence adduced it was shown Powell had disported him. self in the neighborhood and in her house in g manner thorougly consistent with that of colored ''jemmen," who is accustomed to move in the most ex- elusive social circles in Darktown. The female virago was furthermore greatly surprised and grew indignant when she was informed that Powell had pre-

ALL IS WELL.
True Love Now Runs Very
 Smoothly.
The Campbell and Calkins Elope- ment Settled by Marriage and
 All Are Happy.

From the Prescott Courier.
 The Campbell and Calklns clans of Walnut Grove were we'll represented in Prescott yesterday morning, the occa- sion of their presence being the prelim- mary examination of Mitchell Camp bell, a 19-year-old youth on charge of abducting Mary Jane Calkins, comedy miss of fifteen summ CTS. The young people had loved long and hard, but their stern parents on either side irowned on the young lovers and they took wings to more congenial surround. ings, in the neighborhood of Tempe. The pursuit by Father Calkins and their final apprehension and return to Prescott has already been told. The young lovers looked sad yesteid day morning, for the outlook was stormy indeed, but as the darkest clouds are ever followed by the most cheering sun- rise, 80 did the forlorn situation of the young lovers change as if by magic to the blissful condition of Eden before snake time, for the objecting old cur muGgeons who had not felt true loves warm impulses for something less than a hundred years, finally came to the conclusion that the most sensible thing to do was to allow these two young peo' pie, 50 devoted to one another, to get married, and married they were, sur rourded by a crowd of wishing friends. Probate Judge Hicks per formed the ceremony. The marriage took place about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon.

Is Mangled by the Ex-
 pIOSiOn of a Boiler.
He Lives But a Short While
 After the Accident.
The Lad Was Blown Distance of 126 Feet-Conflicting Stories
 About the Affair.

Mesa was the scene of another boiler explosion Saturday afternoon. The ac. cident did not occur in Mesa but at the ranch of Chas. Peterson, two miles east of town.
 The threshing outfit of the Lewis Bros. were on their last work before closing the season and, in fact had just gotten through and the horses already hitched to the engine preparatory to hauling it from the place.
 Joe Peterson, lad nine years of age, was standing near and requested per- mission to place two sticks of wood re- maining on the tender, into the fire. box. Permission was given and the lad had hardly placed the wood in the fire before 8 most terrific explosion oc- cured. The boy was standing directly in front of the fre-box and the force of the concussion sent him rolling along the ground for a distance of 126 feet. Several men were standing in front of the engine when the head blew out but were saved from injury by the horses hitched to the engine. As is was the horses were badly scalded and couple of them fatally injured.
 As soon as the escaping steam and dust occasioned by the explosion had settled young Peterson was noticed lying on the ground some distance from the engine and when they picked him up he was in an unconscious condition. Dr. Hughes of this city, was sent for by telephone. He hastened at once to the scene and to his practiced eye it | took but cursory glance to show that the boy was beyond human aid. He was literally par boiled and even h his inconsistencies the groans of anguish he gave went to show the excruciating pain he was suffering. The boy died at 4 o'clock Sunday morning and his funeral occurred the game night.
 By curious coincide ence the day of the accident was also the ninth birth. day of young Peterson. Another story in regard to the accident was that the water in the boiler was low and the en- gineer turned cold water on the hot flues.
 Another curious coincidence in con nection with the affair is that one year ago another boiler explosion occurred within one hundred yards of the place where the last explosion happened. It is also said that the same engineer experienced an explosion five years ago, when four men were badly scalded and one young man blinded for life.
