ST. JOINS, n. F., April 29.-Anxiety

struck an iceberg on the Grand Banks
on the night of April "a and foundered
immediately. Three of them are in
comatost condition, and it is feared
that one will not live through the
night.
Their physical and mental sufferings
are terrible. 1t was found necessary

1t is scarcely possible to get any def

snatched from their incoherent raw

at the moment of the wreck Two of
the men on board the rescued dory
were taken from the water almost
drowned. They were the first to per-

Four boats are known to have got

by the occupants of the rescued dory.
The intense cold made it almost i'm.
possible for them to do anything in
the way of navigating the dory and
they were compelled to drift help

The most horrifying incident of the

which they were driven by the pangs
Of hunger. The dead body which they.
used for food was frozen so stiff that
they were scarcely able to hack off the

the life of the survivors was sustained
in this way.

NEWPORT News, Va, April 2S.-Fire
broke out in the Chesapeake & Ohio
Railroad Co. IS pier No. 3, at an early
hour Tuesday morning, and before the
flames were checked damage to the ex-
tent of two million dollars had been
done.
Two of the company's immense piers
were destroyed. three vessels burned
to the waters edge, tug boat entire
~ destroyed and eight persons in
jured, some of them seriously.
The flames were discovered in Pier 5
about 4:15 Tuesday morning, and
spread with such rapidity that it was
impossible to make any Roadway
against them. A fierce north wind
famed the flames furiously and swept
them across the docks to Pier 6, which
was soon also burning furiously.
The British steamship Clintonia,
which was loading with oil, tobacco
and general merchandise at Pier was
soon ablaze. Tugs pulled her out into
the middle Of the river, where an inef-
fectual battle was waged at terrible
odds against the flames that were rag
ing in her infammable cargo. She
was burned to the water line at 10
o'clock Tuesday night.
The Norwegian steamship Solveig,
which was loading grain at pier 5,
next caught. The crew managed to
escape by elm bing down the hawsers
to the pier.
Meanwhile the Chesapeake & Ohio
tug Wanderer, which had caught fire,
had burned to the waters edge. The
taking on slaves from the north side
of pier g, also caught. The flames
obtained such hold on her that they
could not be conquered, and she went
to the bottom at e o'clock Tuesday af-
ternoon.
The crew of this vessel had a very
narrow escape from being cremated.
They were aroused by John Anderson,
one of the crew, and were only rescued
with the greatest difficulty, after the
captain and boatswaiu had been badly
burned. The heavy north wind and
the heroic efforts of the fire depart
ment saved the large grain elevator of
the Chesapeake & Ohio Co. from de-
struction. The fire was rapidly
spreading across the conveyors that
connect the elevator with the piers,
but with the aid of a locomotive and
an immense chain the convevors sup
ports were pulled out, the conveyors
themselves torn down, and this danger
averted.
At 1 o'clock Tuesday afternoon the
fire had spent its fury and was we'll
under control.
There are vague rumorS Of many
persons having lost their lives, but
they can not be traced to any relia bile
source.
The Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad Co,
estimates their loss at about $500, 900,
which is fully covered by insurance.
The total loss including the three
ships and their cargoes, the tug Wan
derer and the merchandise in the
piers will probably reach two million
dollars.
The insurance on the piers is car
ried by large insurance syndicate
The steamship Clintonia was owned
by Robinson e Sons. North Shields;
the Solyeig by c. Nicholson & Sons,
Bergen. and the j. d. Bischoff by j. j.
Bischoff, Bremen.

AHo wreck 1rOOps Fle0 from LariSSa
After a Short Skirmish-The Turks Cap
rured Six Large Guns In the Fort, With
Several Prisoners.
LONDON, April 27.-The correspond
ent of the Times at LariSsa telegraph
ing from that point Sunday evening,
says:
The town was occupied by the
Turkish cavalry at o'clock Monday
morning, after short skirmish. The
Greek troops fed in panic, and most
OF the civilians abandoned their resi-
dences. Grumhoff Pasha, the inspec-
tor general of artillery, Mustapha Matik
Bey, the sultan's aid de camp, and Habit
Bey and Setulah Bey entered the
town with the cavalry. The Turks
captured six large guns in the fort
and mountain battery with several
prisoners, among them officers and all
the military stores. Edhem Pasha
prohibited any pillaging and there
have been neither massacres nor out
RACES, though some OF the Greeks
burned their houses. The dead are
not numerous. The Turks maintain
excellent discipline. The Greek army
fed to the mountain sides. Many of
the inha bitants are already returning.

man troops are entering the town in

ners waving. Mustapha Matik Bey
has been constituted commandant of
the town. He has taken possession Of
the bank with the money it contains.
The town will be held by small gar
rison. Military operations in this
quarter are for the time concluded.
The cautious policy of Edhem Pasha
is fully Justified and he deserves every
congratulation as a skillful and hui
name general"
LONDON, April 27.-The dispatches
of the special correspondents for pub
LEGATION Tuesday consist for the most
part of additional details of the Greeks
discontinue. The Turkish plans are
not yet revealed. There is no dou bit
now that Crown Prince Constantine
ordered the bridges to be destroyed
before the Greeks abandoned Larissa,
but damage could not be done beyond
what could be easily repaired by the
Turks. 1t seems equally certain that
the Greeks only escaped a crushing
defeat with returning daylight by pre-
cipitate eight.
The news from Epirus is conflicting.
1t seems certain that the Turks have
reoccupied Pente pigadia, and it is not
improbable that the Greeks have re-
treated to Arta, showing that the
Turks allowed them to advance to Pen
tepigadia solely in order to destroy the
column.
ATHENS, April 27.-The latest dis
patches here show that the Greeks
have occupied all the positions around
Pentepigadia. Col Maros has asked
for rein: orcementS in order to insure
his advance to Janina Col Dairak-
taris has, therefore, started with .. 00G
men to assist him. The report that
Col. Maros has been ordered to retire
is unfounded.
ATHENS, April 27.-Advices here
from the correspondent OF the AS
sociated Press with the Turks
at Larissa say that the quantity
of military stores abandoned by the
Greeks at Tyrnavos and other places
prove that they did not retreat, but
fed precipitately.
The Greek government has demand
ed of the directors OF the Thessalian
railroads that they continue the SER

In time everything breaks or wears out.
Outlines a break can be repaired II the prop
er means are at hand. One OF the many
great advantages of using a Winchester
make of rifle or repeating shot gun is that if
any part of the gun is broken, it can be cas-
lily replaced at trihing cost. All Winches-
ter guns are made by a system of inter-
changeable parts so that part will fit any
Winchester gun of like model. This per-
mts the owner of IA Winchester to renew any
part of the gun without the aid of gun
maker. Parts can be obtained through
any gun dealer in the country. This fea-
ture alone should recommend strongly
