THAT LADY COLONEL.
MacCorkIe aud HIS Private Secretary,
Have a Till About the Matter.


An interesting dispatch from
Charleston reads as follows
CHARLESTON. Feb. 8. Quite a
little breeze has been stirring
around the executive quarters at
the capitol, and tits stated that
there IS q very great estrange.
ment between Governor Mac.
coflfle and his private secretary,
Mr., lo|sn B. White. as q result
OF wni1a Mr.. White is in Wash
ington and may not return to re-
sumo at all. 1t is alleged that
it all came about through the
appointment Of a Miss Humph-
reys, of Cincinnati, as a colonel
by the Governor. in which affair
it is claimed that White exceeded
his authority 1t is very difficult
to obtain theexact facts, but the
affair furnishes food for a great
deal of gossip.
GovernorMacC orkle says there
is no foundation for the story
that his private secretary has re-
signed or contemplates doing so.

deem, aud sank In twenty minutes
after the accident occurred.
The horrible details OF the loss
of her human freight have been
discussed by hundreds of people
who gathered at the different
places where the survivors of the
disaster remain.
The inhuman conduct of the
officers of the Crathie towards
the helpless people on the found.
cred boat has been severely criti.
cised and an investigation will
be made.
The bitterly cold weather that
prevailed and the lack of news
from any point along the coast
shows thatthere is little, IL any,
hope of any survivors Of the dis.
aster reaching land
A life boat supposed 10 have
belonged 70 the Elbe was washed
ashore near Yarmouth. In the
boat were anumber Of life belts
and oars. and tits believed to be
the boat from which the fishing
smack wildflower rescued the
few persons who escaped from
the steamship after the collision.
There is no longer hope that
any of the Elbe's passengers or
crew have been saved than the
twenty persons landed by the
fishing boat Wildflower. No
trace has been found of the
missing life boat.
The British steamship Crathie,
which ran into and sank the Elbe
was seized at Rotterdam.
Capt Gordon, the Crathie's
commander, has made a state.
mentto Lloyds' agent in which he
says he was knocked down by
the collision. When he regain.
ed his feet the two ships were
some distance apart and the
Crathie was so damaged that he
expected her to sink at any mo.
ment. Nevertheless. he asserts,
he followed the other steamer,
but found she went faster than
the Crathie and so he thought
she was safe.
The total loss of life in the
sinking of the Elbe was s34.
Thisis believed to be the correct
number. at any rate, it is the of.
fetal account of those lost in the
disaster.
All steamship men deplore TIE
absence in international law of
means to punish offenders in dis.
asters similar to that of the Elbe.
Mr.. Schwab, agent for the North
German Lloyd. says positively
that the officer in charge of the
Crathie at the time of the coils.
ion committed deliberate murder
There is no doubt but that the
commander of the Crathie is
guilty of the crime and will be
prosecuted.

THE United States and Spain have
been having quite an interesting time
for the past week. There is an insur-
rectlon ia Cuba and the Spanish gun
boats have been watching the coast
very closely, to keep any vessel from
landing arms or men to help the
Cubans. An American steamer, the
Alliance, coming from Colon to New
York, was travelling through the
Windward Passage, to the east OF
Cuba, between that island and Hayti,
when she saw a Spanish gunboat come
out from the shore. The Alliance
was some six miles from shore, which
is on the high seas and out OF the iuris-
diction OF any country. The gunboat
ran up the Spanish flag, the Alliance
returned the salute. The gunboat
ared a blank shot, which was an order
for the Alliance to stop. Captain
Crossnan did not care to do business
with any Spanish gunboat, and so did
not stop, but kept his vessel going as
fast as she could. The Spaniard then
fired three solid shots at her, butluck-
fly the craftsmanship was poor and 10
damage was done. The Alliance kept
going at her best speed and soon was
out OF reach Of the Spaniard. On ar
irving at New York the matter was
Immediately reported 60 the state de-
partment at Washington. Az frst
Secretary Gresham seemed 70 think 10
was not the business OF the Alliance
TO keep out OF the way OF Spanish gun
gun boats, but he soon woke up 20 the
fact that the American dag had been
fred upon on the high seas, and sent
word 70 Spain that he would expect
an apology and a promise that nothing
OF the kind would happen in the fu-
ture. OF course the Spanish govern
ment had TO get into communication
with the captain Of the gunboat and
get his side OF the story before an an
swer could be made, which has moi
been dOpg as yet.

THE Hon. d. p. Carr seems to think
that the complimentary review Of his
career as a legislator published in the
Sentinel, aud republished in the last

He has a letter in the last Enterprise
regarding the review Of the Sentinel,
which the LIBERhL would like to pub
lish, but cannot, owing to lack Of
room. The letter closes as follows:
"Mr. Editor, a great deal has been
published about my claiming to be
fully informed upon all subjects Of
legislation. There is no truth in such
statements. In regard TO the stock

merit of Mr.. Hinkle, Mr.. W. IL. Jack,

upon any Of these subjects and had no
remarks to make upon any bills bear

matters. It is not my purpose to re-
view my record at length bnt will say
