THE FIRST FATALITY
In Connection With Cincinnatrs IIun- dation Caused by a Building
 Caving In.

Cincinnati, Ohio, Feb. 27.-The first ia talty attending the high water occurred at 4:15 o'clock this afternoon Three of the floors of the five-story stone front warehouse on Front street, near Vine, owned by Hinkle, Wilson & Kreis, whole sale grocers, caved in at that hour. The building is surrounded with several feet of water. About 1000 barrels of sugar went down with the wreck; which car ried with it several men, All of the front and rear walls and part of the sidewalks are still standing.
 Eleven men were at work in the build ing but all escaped serious injury by jumping from windows into the water, except Jacob Schmalbach, aged 50, of Covington, Ky, who is missing and doubtless crushed to death under the ruins. Mike Coleman, another of fsthe men, was struck on the head by a falling joist. MT. Wilson, one of the proprietors was in the front of the building when the col lapse came and was thrown into the eel lar. He was not struck by any of the debris and succeeded in swimming to saftey.
 The high waters doubtless weakened tine foundations and let the floors down. The loss is about $55,000

UNCLE SAM WIDE AWAKE
The Bermuda Being Closely Looked Out for--Filibustering Expedition on
 the Tapis.

Washington, Feb. 27-A sharp lookout is being kept by vessels of the navy and revenue cutter service for tha filibuster Bermuda and the appearance of the In diana off St. Johi $ bar. Florida, is only another evidence of the precautionary measures adopted. Whether the treas ury department had any information on the subject has not been ascertained, but it is certain that the officials believe another filibustering expedition is in con- temptation, If 1t has not already been planned.
 Instructions have been sent to the col lector of customs at Jacksonville. with reference to the renewed application of the detained steamsr DauntlesS for per mission to go to Fernandina on a wreck ing trip that the department stands on the grounds previously stated, in effect that unless the owners of the DauntlesS make the required legal affidavit that the vessel does not intend to engage in a vio- lation of the neutrality or navigation laws, the vessel must remain in the col lector's custody. This affidavit the own CTS of the Dauntless refused to make al- sonville agrs cling to proceed from Jack sonville in custody of an officer of the United States. A combination of the Bermuda and the Dauntess is what the treasury and navy officials are seeking to prevent.
 All the available vessels of the revenue cutter service are now engaged in fili- clustering patrol work, and the navy ds- partment has increased it's force by the assignment of the Marblehead, the Vesu- vius and the Indiana.

GREECE GIVEN THREE DAYS In Which to Remove Her Troops
 From Crete. RUSSt SHOWS HER HAND seeTs Be the Leader of the Powers in the /c Latest Movement. PS $. TOO, IS GREATLY STIRRED UP ss CT the Announcement that the Czar Will " Occupy Armenia-Report that King
 George Will Abdicate ia Fay
 of His Son.
TOO, IS GREATLY STIRRED UP

Berlin, Feb. 27.-A dispatch from St. Petersburg published in the London and continental newspapers yesterday pur- porting to describe Russia's attitude on the Cretan question and asserting that the Russian government had ordered Greece to- recall her troops from Crete within three days is now known to be authentic. though it's publication has been late. It is said that Russia agreed to delay action three days only on the strength of representations of the British and French governments that time ought to be accorded to the Greek government in which to consider it's position
 The impetuous action taken by Russia has certainly aces lerated the negotiations among the powers which are now turn ing mainly toward a procedure of eoer- cion. Official advices which have been re- ceived here from Athens have caused the conviction that fleets of the powers must make their appearance in the Pireaus be- fore the king of the Hellenes will yield to the will of the concerted governments and that his submission will certainly be accompanied by the resignation of the Greek cabinet and probably by the abdi- cation of the Greek monarchy.
 A semi-official article in the Pesther- Lloyd conveys the idea that the Austro- Hungarian government, though now fol- lowing the lead of Russia and Germany, is very much averse to Russia's style of initiative as affirming her right to be re- garded as the paramount power in the Balkins. In official circles in Berlin, how ever. Russia's haste in the matter is at- tributed to the movements which have been made by Servia and Bulgaria to- ward an offensive alliance against Fur key.
 King Alexander, of servia, will start from Belgrade for Sofia tomorrow, to confer with Prince Ferdinand, of Bull garia, upon the situation and, according to a dispatch published in the Frankfort Gazette, the governments of Bulgaria and Servia have demanded from the porte an explanation of the massing of the Turkish troops upon the frontier of those states.

CONVICT INSPECTORS NAMED
S. D. TRAPP, OF ANNIsTON, NAMED
 AS PRESIDENT.
Dr. Blake, of Clay County, Chosen Physi- clan Inspector and F. ". Booker,
 of Uniontown, Associate.

Montgomery, Ala, Feb. 27--(Specia1)- Gov. Johnston tonight eased the anxiety of thousands of people in Alabama by announcing the appointment of the board of convict inspectors as follows:
 President-S. D. Trapp, of Anniston, Calhoun county.
 Physician inspector--Dr. Blake, of Clay county.
 Associate inspector--E W. Booker, of Uniontown, Perry county.
 There were some eighty applicants and a vigorous race was made by twenty five or thirty. The governor has worked in- dustriously for ten days on the matter and his selection is believed to be a par ticularly fortunate one.
 MT. Trapp is a man of recognized bust- ness ability. He has for a good many years been a member of the big whole sale firm of Trapp 61 Conner, and has &C., cumulated a competency. It is believed he will do the state splendid service as the head Of the convict department. He is @ true blue democrat and silver man, and was president of the Johnston club at Anniston. The fact of the recent ap- pointment of Colonel Crook, of Calhoun as the president of the railroad commis- sion makes MT Trapp's appointment all the more complimentary, coming as he does from the same county.
 Dr. Blake is one of the foremost phy- sicians in Eastern Alabama. He has been a working democrat all his life and was an enthusiastic Johnston man.
 Everybody knows Captain Booker He is one of the best democrats and most popular citizens of Alabama, and his ap- pointment has all along been foregene conclusion.

AN HEROIC DEATH.
Horrible Fate of Son in a Successful Attempt to Save His Fathers
 Life.

Galveston, Tex, Feb. 27.-Paul L. Le- fvre made an heroic and successful ef- fort to save the life of his father this morning, but lost his own.
 Eugene Lefvre and son, carpenters and house movers, were engaged in moving an old building, but their progress was obstructed by wire. Eugene Lefvre, who was standing on the top of the build ing, grasped one of the wires with both hands in an effort to raise 1t to the top of the house. Instantly he was para lyzed, blue flashes of electricity flew from his body his hands were smoking and the smell of burning flesh made the locker on turn sick. Paul, who was on the roof with his father. sprang to him and tore him loose As his father fell on the roof, his life saved, the son fell upon the wires and his life was sacrificed. The young man was 23 years of age.
 The elder Lefvre's hands were fearful ly burned and his escape from death was miraculous and due to the bravery of his son

FREE SILVER FIGHT
Must Be Kept Up, Said Bryan, at Com plimentary Banquet in New
 York City.

New York, Feb. 27.--A complimentary luncheon was given at the Hotel Bar tholdi today to w. J. Bryan. Elliott Dan- fort, the chairman of the democratic state committee, presided, and in responding to the address of welcome of Danfort, MT. Bryan made a red-hot speech, en- couraging the bimetallistS and declaring that the free silver fight must go on. H said in part:
 q have never lost the opportunity since the election to assure those who labored for free coinage here that we, who in the west and south have more Ss local vic tory to rejoice over, recognize the valor with which you made the fight. I do not know of any democrat or free silver re- publican or populst who deserves more credit than those who made the fight in New York city, which is in the centre of the gold influence of the United States.
 q appreciate the work which you have done and the moral courage which it has required and when the history of those years is written. the text man will have to say that there were heroes in those days and that New York, New Eng land and the eastern states furnished their share of those heroes.
 "I want to say to those who have fought. that the fight is not done. have found a great many who had not been with ns before election day or on election day, who have come to us since the election. If your experience has been the same as mine you will find that there has been profound disappoint- ment among many who were led to be- lieve that th= maintenance of the gold standard or the positive declaration that it would be maintained would restore confidence, revive business and bring back prosperity. This has not been the result.
 The gold standard Is doing now just what it has always done.
 Tt is helping those who own money and hurting those who are producing
 "I want to say that the agitation will go on until every American citizen un- derstands the money question and then we want them to vote on it and settle 1t. But I do not believe any question can be settled through the intimidation prac- ticed through money lenders and employ CTS. Men must be frse. They must have the right heart. and I believe the question cannot be settled until the yer dict is that of the right heart and not of the body bent down under the lash. appreciate the opportunity to be with the bimetallists of New York and shall be glad to bring back the news that the bimetallists of New York are not ashamed of the fight they made"

ALABAMA SCHOOL HISTORY.

La Fayette Sun.
 A most sensible article in the State Herald of recent date pleading for school history of this state has attracted our attention. A sad fact it is that we have no history of Alabama suitable for use in our public schools. Why this is true we knew not, unless 1t is due to lack of interest and funds with which to pub fish such work. Thsre have been his tories written such as Hodgson's Cradle of the Confederacy," Hannis Taylors Political History of Alabama" De Leon's -Four Years in Rebel Capitals" DuBose's Life and Times of William l.. Yancey." Brewers Alabama" Ser ney's Industrial History of Alabama" Riley's Alabama As It Is," Willis c. Clarks's Education in Alabama" Will mer's Recent Past from Southern Standpoint" and "Reminiscences of a Grandfather" But work prepared with a view to use in our public schools is the thing needed. There is rich field here for bFainy young man and we do hope that the day Is not far distant when such a work, thoughtfully written and carefully compiled. will be issued. We need it and want it and must have 1t.
