Great Public Excitement.
HI Gable to the United Press.

LONDON, March Is, 1895.-The Times
correspondent in Madrid says the uncer-
tainty of the fate of the Reina Regente
has caused great public excitement there.
The Government is accued of keeping
back news of the ship and of having
ordered the detention by the censors of
all kilograms giving information of her.
1t is more likely, however, that the Gov
eminent is as badly off for definite
news of the missing ship as is the pub
lie. The more optimistic portion Of the
public are of the opinion that the cruiser
has beer driven into the Atlantic by the
storm and is either disabled or Short of

Ii was the worst street ear accident that
ever happened in Milwaukee, and the
news of the shocking disaster sent
thrill of horror throughout the city. From
all accounts the accident seems to have
clearly been due TO the carelessness OF
the motorman, John Kennedy, but he
stuck To his post in n vain endeavor TO
stop the car, which he had permitted 10

paid the penalty of his carelessness with

river, and was submerged for about two

is eighteen feet deep at that point, being

BLEW UP THE BUILDING.
Milan, Ohio, Bank Robbed of $4,000
burglars Alarm the Town.

'
About O'clock Monday morning a ter
rife explosion awakened the people of
Milan, Ohio. A hurried examination show
ed that the Lockwood bank building had
been broken into, the safe blown and its
contents, about $4,000, taken by five
masked men, who, in blowing open the
safe, had demolished the building and
started an alarm all over the village.
Among the many who started to invest-
gate the explosion was l.. l.. Stoddard,
cashier of the bank, and he was just in
time TO see the FIVE men leave the bank
building, jump into q carriage and drive
away. He fired several shots at them,
but without effect, and the men soon dis
appeared in the direction of Sandusky.
4 posse of men was hurriedly organized
and soon followed in pursuit. At the
same time notices were sent by wire in all
directions, and the news spread around
them so securely that escape was well
nigh impossible. At Sandusky two men
were caught. The exact amount of money
secured cannot yet be ascertained, but
il is believed to be about $50, 600 The
bank is Il wealthy concern, which fact
was doubtless known by the men. The
only error in their wel-laid plans was
the heavy explosion which started the
alarm. 1t is quite probable that they had
not prepared il with sufficient caution and
by that error their plans were upset and
themselves placed in danger of capture.

GIVE Up HOPE.
No Prospect of Further Survivors of
the Inflated Elbe Being Found.

the Inflated Elbe Being Found.
Lowestoft advices say that visits made
10 all the various life-saving and coast
guards stations show that no additional
news has been received in regard TO the
loss of the North German Lloyd steam
ship Elbe and no trace has been found
of the missing lifeboat supposed to con-
tain people from that steamer. However,
the sea is so rough that many of the fish
ing smacks are unable to make port and
are beating up and down the coast, wait
ing for chance TO run into some har-
Dor. In reply TO n message of sympathy
from Queen Victoria, the agent here of
the North German Lloyd Steamship
Company telegraphed to her Majesty
saying that no hopes whatever are enter
tanned of any more of the passengers or
crew OF the steamship Elbe having been
saved. Captain Gordon, of the British
steamship Crathie, which is generally
admitted TO have been the vessel which
ran into and sank the Elbe, has made
statement to Lloyd's agent in which he
says that he was knocked down by the
force of the collision, and that when he
regained his feet the two ships were some
distance apart. and the Crathie was so
damaged that he expected her to sink at
any moment. In spite Of this, Captain
Gordon added. he followed the other
steamer, but found that she went faster
than the Crathie, and so he thought the
vessel she had collided with was safe.

Rev. Rollins Used Another's Sermons.

Rev. Rollins Used Another's Sermons.
A sensation was caused in Butte, Mont,
circles by an expose in the local papers
of the fact that Rev William Rollins, of
the Mountain View Methodist Church,
the ultra fashionable one of the city, has
been appropriating without proper credit
the sermons of Rev. DIR. +. NJ. Bristol, of
Chicago, published in book form. Rev.
Mr.. Rollins had been giving n series of
learned Sunday evening sermons that at
tracted wide attention and comment, and
the papers here published the sermons in
parallel columns with the sermons from
the book by Bristol, and the identical
words appear in both. Rev. Mr.. Bristols
lectures were published under the title
of "Providential Epochs' and entitled
"The Renaissance" "The Reformation"
1.-THE Discovery of America" and "The
Settlement of Our Country Rev. Mr..
Rollins called his lectures 1.-THE Revival
of Learning" "The Reformation" THE

Representatives - Important Measures
Discussed and Acted Upon Gist Of the
Business.

During the discussion of the currency
ouestion I'm the Senate Wednesday Mr..
Vest said he would follow the Presidents
lead no longer. The Senate ratified the
Japanese treaty after adopting an amen'i-
ment TO strike out the ten-year limit.
William X. Tibbals, of Illinois, was con-
firmed by the Senate as supervising IN
spector of steam vessels for the Fifth Dis
trict. The House entered on discussion
of the Pacific Railroad bill, for which
three days were set apart. A bill Tor tue
punishment of train wreckers was agreed
on by the House Committee on Interstate
Commerce. The Chicago postotiice bill
will be favorably reported To the Senate
with the provision for its completion in
three years omitted.
Pacific Railroad funding bill was dis
cused in the House Thursday and much
opposition To the measure was developed.
German and Hill made strenuous efforts
TO have the Senate take some Immediate
action on the pressing financial question.
Ii is said Germany is determined TO force
n tariff war upon the United States in or
der TO satisfy the agricultural party.
But little outside of routine business was
done in either house. Many bills were
introduced in each branch.
The House Friday adopted II resolution
calling on the President for information
concerning the action of British sub
jects during the rebellion in Hawaii. Coz
gressmen Breckenridge, of Kentucky,
and Heard, of Missouri called each other
liars in the House and were caused TO
apologize. Senator Teller, representing
the silver element, gave warning of OPP
position TO any financial plan not agree
able TO him. 1t is stated semi-officially
that Secretary Carlisle will be appointed
to the Supreme bench to succeed Justice
Jackson.

day. A rule setting apart Tuesday, We'd

Of the currency bill was adopted by the
House. Hawaiian correspondence sub
mitted to the House shows Great Britain
has not interfered with affairs of the re-
public. The Senate passed the bill TO es-
tablish national military park at Coz
tysburg, Pa, and il now goes TO the Pres
ident.
The District Of Columbia appropria-
ton bill was passed By the Senate Tues
day, after amendments to coin the silver
seigniOrage and To issue bonds were ruled
out. Messrs. Mitchell and Harris had an
alteration in the Senate, in which the
words "ungentlemanly" and contempt
BILE" were used. Debate on the currency
bill was begun in the House. Mr. Reed,
who offered substitute, said the trou=-
bic was caused by insufficient revenue.

Control of the Owners.

Brooklyn Trolley Lines In Undisputed
Control of the Owners.
Every trolley line In the city of Brook
lyn was i'm operation Wednesday morning
except one. The strike is over. New
motormen and conductors have replaced
the men who went out in body on Jan.
II. The linemen who went out on SYM
pathetic strike week later have broken
ranks on several lines and those whose
places had not been filed were taken
back. The G,000 men who went out in
body are still holding out. They were
prepared for long siege, and they say
they have plenty of money coming In
daily in contributions, aside from what
they had laid away from their wages.
The lines now have enough men TO oper-
ate all cars which are in condition TO be
run. About one-third of the trolley cars
of Brooklyn have broken windows, dis
ablcd motors, or are otherwise incapaci-
tated by the scrimmages they have been
through during the past sixteen days.
The strikers are now directing all their
attention to court proceedings. The laws
delays are proverbial, and whatever trou-
BILE the companies are given through at
tcmpts TO compel operations by writs of
mandamus. or TO obtain forfeiture OF
charters through applications TO the at
torncy general will have little bearing on
the present strike.
