DELAYED BY AN ACCIDENT,
The Over Due Steamer La
Touraine Arrives at New
York.
Forced to Run With One Engine
Owing to the Breaking of
Plates.

NEW YORK, N. Y, Aug. 4.-The fast
express steamer La Touraine, which should
have put III an appearance at this port yes
terday, did not arrive at Sandy Hook light
ship until 80 this morning. On boarding
La Touraine at Quarantine this morning it
was learned that an accident had occurred
which resulted in the stoppage of the port
engine for thirty hours, the steamer pro-
ceeding under the starboard engine at re-
duced speed.
On Wednesday, July 81, about o'clock
in the afternoon, a jarring, grinding SEN
sation was felt, making the after part OF
the steamer tremble. Captain Santelli or
dered the engines stopped Immediately.
When La Touraine lost her Roadway life
boats were lowered and dropped under the
stern to examine the screw. 1t was found
that some of the plates on the after part
between the screws had parted and the
port screws in each revolution were strjk-
ing against them.
As the starboard screw seemed to move
clear of all distractions Captain Santelli
decided to work that screw only. TIL life
boats were taken aboard and the steamer
proceeded at reduced speed for thirty
hours.
Later the port engine was again started,
but both engines were under reduced
speed. 1t is believed that La Touraine
will be hauled out on the drydock to re-
pair the damage to the plates. La Touraine
left Havre July q with 512 passengers.

Saunders, Rev. DR.. Stewart and Mrs.
Stewart, of the Church Missionary Society
Five of Mr.. and Mrs. Stewards children
were killed and two survive. One had a
knee broken and the other, baby, lost an
eye.
The following were saved: Miss Hart
ford of the American Mission. Miss Cod
dington of the English Zenana Mission
and Rev. s. Phillips of the English Church
Missionary Society.
United States Consul Elxson, who is sta
toned at Foo Chow, with party of volun-
teers upon receipt of the news of the mas
sacre started on q steam launch fer the
scene and has returned, bringing with him
the wounded Americans.
The experiences of the survivors were
terrible. They say that death was the
least part of the sufferings of the butchered
women.
The indignation here is intense. Never
theless, the many warships in the harbor
are idle. A mass-meeting has been ar
ranged for tomorrow to protest against
the lack of energy on the part of the an-
thorities and to urge that reparation be
made and that the guilty persons be pun
ished.
The mandarins endeavor to blame GER
tain secret societies for the outrage. The
Europeans, however, regard this as non
sense. The officials are renewing their old
tactics of stopping kilograms.
The reports of the outrage are badly
mixed. The latest says it is now known
that ten persons were killed, including Miss
Lena Stewart and DR.. Stewards whole
family, except two. The American mis-
sionaries, Miss Hartford and DR.. Gregory,
escaped, but the former was fearfully man.
gled. Several English and American chill
dren were killed.
The London Standard tomorrow will de-
mand that the murderers be visited with
condign punishment and that stern ex-
ample be made of the officials who virtu-
ally connived at the commission of the
crime. The paper will say:
IF the Emperor cannot or will not pro-
tect British residents we must give him
assistance of kind he will not welcome. /"
The Chronicle will say it trusts that Great
Britain and the United States will com
bine to teach the Chinese a lesson that will
cause foreigners to be respected forever,
but, in view of the conditions existing in
the country, the bodies sending mission
aries there, especially women, incur the
gravest responsibility. The whole ques-
ton, the Chronicle adds, ought to be re-
considered.
The Times will say: 1.-THE outrage must,
OF course, form the subject of strong rep
resentation to China from England and
probably from the United States. II must
not be passed over as trifle. Immunity
of the murderers would cause standing
menace to the lives and property of the
whole European community in China

VERY YOUNG BURGLARS,
Two Little Girls Broke Into
Stores and Secured
Plumber.
Their Home Raided by Denver
Police and the Mother Taken
as "Fence."

DENVER, Colo, Aug. 4.-Helen Peter
sen, years of age, and her sister Mamie,
Ii years old, were arrested here to-day on
the charge of burglary. Their mother,
Kate Petersen, is held for receiving stolen
goods.
About midnight on Saturday the chill
dren left their house thoroughly equipped
for their criminal mission. Before they
entered the millinery store of Miss Kitty
Dunphy, 633 Sixteenth street, which they
looted, they were forced to progress through
long, dark alley, strewn with old dry
goods cases and other litter. They then,
in professional manner, hoisted large
transom and slipped into the store. They
carried several gunny-sacks, which they
filled in the basement with hats, ribbons
and laces, amounting in value to $50.
To allow their escape with the plumber,
they forced open large iron grating with
improvised implements found in the store.
When their home was searched over $500
worth of goods was recovered and taken to
police headquarters.
The mother denies any connection with
the affair.

THE SILVER DEMOCRATS.
Preparations for the Conference to Be
Held in WdshinOtOll.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Aug. 4.-The COM
mittee of arrangements for the conference
of silver Democrats to be held at Washing
ton on the 18th inst. had session to-day,
and shortly after adjournment Senator
Harris left for the National capital to per-
feet the arrangements in that city. The
committee announces that Senators from
nine States have signiied their intention
of attending the conference, and Congress
men from sixteen States will also be pres
ent. In addition to these leaders of silver
Democrats there will be other gentlemen
from the States, and m all thirty-one
different States will be represented at the
conference.
Senator Harris, being asked concerning
the conference, said that it would I'M
doubtedly be a representative conference
of silver Democrats and its action would
be of the greatest Importance. 1t is not of
course to be in any sense convention, but
a mere assem- blage OF representative silver
Democrats, but it will be confined to those
who have been especially invited to attend.
1t is desired that the silver Democrats in
every State will see that there is fair rep
resentation sent from their respective States
and such representatives are expected to
attend whether specially invited or not. It
is incumbent upon silver Democrats to see
that this is attended to.

TABREEZE, PERSIA, Aug. 4.-The
scarcity of bread in this city has caused
such al agitation among the inhabitants
that on the Sd inst. the authorities ordered
the closing of the bakeries fearing that
they would be looted. This action so in
censed the people that they became riot
Gus and troops were ordered out. The ap-
pearance of the troops further enraged the
populace, and it was found necessary to
order the soldiers to fire, which they did,
killing a score of the rioters, whose bodies
were taken to the residence of the Russian
Consul, whose protection the people i'm
plored.
The Consul promised to try to obtain
reduction of the price of bread, and with
this object in view visited the Shah's son,
Muzaf- Err Din, the Governor of the
province, who promised the desired reduc-
ton. The bakeries remained closed
throughout August 4, and the people be-
came clamorous for the deposition OF the
Governor of the city, whom they believed
to be answerable for the trouble. The
fighting between the troops and people
continues.

FOR THE ROYAL REGATTA.
Crack Yachts to Compete In the Race.
at C0tCes.


COWES, Eng, Aug. 4.-Cowes Roads
to-day presented a brilliant sight, at least
100 yachts being anchored there. Many of
these craft fly racing flags, forty of which
are displayed by the Prince of Wales cut
ter Britannia, while Toward Gould s
Niagara flies thirty. The gathering of
yachts is the finest in the history of the
Royal Yacht Squadron. The number OF
large yachts now here is much greater than
usually takes part in the Cowes regatta,
owing, probably, to the fact that the cup
offered by Lord Iveagh, valued at f200,
open to schooners in cruising trim, will be
sailed for over the Queens couae on We'd
nesday. This is the first year this cup has
been offered.
Another new prize this season is cup
offered by Emperor William of Germany
for schooners and yawls of European build
of forty tons and upward, in cruising trim,
the race for which will take place On Fri
day. These two new trophies have brought
a number of yachts to Cowes, which other
wise would not have taken part in the re-
gatta.
The Ailsa will not race tomorrow. She
is now at Southampton having five feet
added to her topmast and larger topsail
fitted. The changes are being made against

surgents under Matias Vega at Miser-
cordia, near Mayari, in which two of the
rebels were killed.
KEY WEST, FLA, Aug. A letter
from Santiago de Cuba, under date of July
"a, says: In this district of Cuba, after
some days of quiet, the insurgents are
again beginning to make themselves felt.
Another engagement has taken place at
Barre, the town where the first insurgents
gathered at the beginning of the present
revolution. The place was garrisoned by
lieutenant and sixty soldiers.
On July 20 detachment of 1000 rebels,
under the leadership of Rabi, appeared
there and demanded that the guards sur
render, whereupon the single officer with
his sixty troops entrenched themselves in
church and kept the rebels at bay for a
day and half AT the end of that time,
however. the lieutenant surrendered with
his men.
The rebels, after disarming the surrend-
cred soldiers, let them go free but held the
officer prisoner. Then they hanged FIVE or
six persons as spies and left Barre.
The rebel leader Rabi mentioned above
is the same who the Spaniards said was
killed in the battle with Captain General
Campos between Manzanillo and Bayamo
over week ago. In regard to that affair
nothing authoritative is as yetknown. Com
munication between Bayamo and Menzan-
lilo seems to be entirely cut off and every
body here is eagerly awaiting news of the
engagement.
The writer of this letter saw this morn
ing letter from Bayamo saying that dur
ing the engagement Captain General
Campos had the heel blown off his right
shoe and his cane broken by bullet from
the enemy, ard that before he arrived at
Bayamo he became so exhausted from
walking that some of his attendants had to
make litter for him and carry him into
town on it.

They Complain of the Garbted accounts

NEW YORK, n. Y, Aug. 4.-The
steamer st. Louis arrived yesterday.
Among her passengers was the Cornell
crew which rowed the Henley regatta. A
United Press representative met the St.
Louis at quarantine and interviewed Free
born. captain of the boat during the races.
When shown the report of the races fur
nished by the Chicago Associated Press,
Freeborn said that the account was a mis-
statement of facts and was greatly exag-
gerated The only man in the boat who
gave out was Fennell, who caught crab
at the mile when the boats were even. The
oar struck him in the side, and the &C.
cident decided the issue of the race. The
men were then, in his opinion, in just as
good physical shape as their rivals, and
it would have been close race had the &C.
cident not happened.
When asked as to whether the men were
overturned or not Freedom said that he
did not think they were. He himself
weighed fourteen pounds more than he did
last year, while they did not work one
half as hard as they would have done
here, but they had three or four decidedly
out of condition, owing to climatic condi-
tioQs.
