PIRACY ON THE SEAS,
This is the Charge Uncle Sam Brings
Against the Three Friends

The announcement OF the probable pur-
pose OF the United States government to
prosecute the alleged illibuster, Three
Friends. and the men who fitted her out for
her last expedition to Cuba on a charge Of
piracy has caused sensation. The libel is u
lengthy document. The third count, which
is the menancing one, describes the fitting
out OF the Three Friends with munitions Of
war to assist those engaged in armed resist
ance against the king of Spain.
1t Is significant thar in the libel no parti-
cular section OF the revised statues Is speci-
fed us having been violated by tho Three
Friends. This libel also differs from pre-
vious ones filed against :he vessel In that the
persons are named in connection with lifting
out the allese expedition. These charges,
and the further fact that tho Three Friends
is reported TO have used her Hotchklss guns
against Spanish gupboat, are responsible
for the impression that the government In
tends to proceed against the vessel and those
who fitted her out on charge OF piracy.
The date named is the day on which the
Three Friends is said to have fired on the
Spanish gunboat.
1t should be understood that so far only
the vessel has been taken in custody by the
government. The men named in the libel
are still at liberty, and will not be arrested
until indicted by the United States grand
jury, which is now IN session. But, while
nominally at liberty, the men arc CLOSELY
watched by the government detectives. and
would bc Immediately arrested II they should
attemp to leave the city.
1t is limited that by playing on the fears OF
one OF the men who accompanied the Three
Friends on her last expedition, District At
torney Clark has induced him to turn states
evidence, and his testimony is mainly relied
upon TO secure indictments against the men
and their subsequent conviction.
The district attorney is said to be acting
under special instructions from Washington,
and ne Is said to be in constant telegraphic
communication with Attorney General
Harmon. In this connection, il was learned
that the libel was prepared upon lines pre-
pared BY the attorney general himself.

SEVEN NUNS PERISH IN A FIRE,
TRYING TO SAVE OTHERS.
A Terrible Disaster in a Canadian Con
vent

Tho lives OF seven Ursuline sisters were
lost in fire that destroyed the convent OF
Our Lady Of Lake St. John, at Roberval, Lake
st. John, Quebec. The establishment was
controlled by the Ursulipes of Quebec, n
clustered order. and tho Oldest religious
sisterhood in Canada.
The names of the dead are as follows: Miss
Eliza Gosselin and Miss Rose Gosselin, St.
Jean Chrystostome; Misses Emma Lestour-
neau, Quebec; G. Garneau. st. Foye; Laura
Rudon, Herbcrtvile; Bouille Deschambault
and Louise Girard, Roberval.
When il became known that the convent
was on fire there was CONSERVATION in the
village. Ordinarily in that institution there
were almost 80 young ladies under tuition,
besides a number Of nuns, novices, ETC.. r.,
making total OF almost 100. Most OF the
students were away, however, on their holi-
day vacation. The utmost confusion pre-
vailed ut tho scene of the fire. Nuns and
pupils rushed from the place. All the young
ladies'. so far as could be learned. escaped.
They are quartere'l comfortably, and so far
none are reported missing. With the nuns,
however the case was different. Theirs was
the especial care Of looking after the young
girls, and when the roll was called. seven de-
voted women did not answer. They were
0vertnken by flames and smoke and perishcd.
Tho loss is estimated at SIS 900, with only
about 81, 600 Of insurance.

A CHEAT RIVER ROAD.
Ten Miles Of Right of Way Secured From
One County

j.. II. Hamilton, OF Philadelphia. n repre-
sentative OF tho West Virginia Northern Rail-
road Company, whose principal Office is at
Philadelphia, has secured from the court of
Preston county ten miles Of right OF way for
the proposed railroad down Cheat river. The
court granted the company the use Of an
abandoned country road, provided work be
commenced at once. Mr.. Hamilton assured
the court that his company would at once
commence the work on this road, which is to
connect with the Baltimore and Ohio at
Rowlesville, thence down the river to some
point near Fairchance, Pa The road will
be ne. sly 80 miles In length and will pass

phia, are known as being large stockholders
in the company, and other Philadelphia
people are interested. The Messrs. Stoer
are owners OF valuable timber and mineral
territory along the Cheat river and own
several large lumber mills In operation in

A railroad down Cheat river has been con-
sidered for a number Of years. and another
company has had q charter for several years.
II is known as the Cheat River Railroad
Company. OF Pttsburg. The correspondent
has been informed that this company is also
ready to huiid, and will do go II the Phila-
delphia parties do not keep the franchise
alive that they acquired by beginning work.
The only practical route for the first nine
or ten miles OF the road proposed is upon
the county road. which has natural grade.
The level shore al ,ng the stream is not wide
enough for more than one-half, hence the
right Of way along the county road here is Il
valuable one

DEATH TO TRAIN ROBBERS.
Governor Stone, of Missouri, Urges Ex-
treme Penalties for the Crime.

Governor Stone has this to say OF train
robbery In his annual message TO the leSisla-
ture: During the last three years several
OF these crimes have been committed. Trains
have been stopped and express cars riled,
and on one occasion q conductor was shot
and seriously wounded. l care neither
more nor less for railroad and express COM
panies, than for other corpora ions or citi-
2ens, but the crime is one which calls for
more than ordinary attention. and the neces-
sity for its suppression Is so great tina, it
should be visited by the most extreme pun
ishment. 1t Is crime penetrated by naked
desperadoes, who go prepared to commit
murder II 1t Is necessary either to succeed
or escape
1T surpasses all other crimes in its detri-
mental effect on the state. When such
crimes occur with frequency IN impression
becomes widely current that life and prop
crty are unsafe within the jurisdiction where
they previ!. 1t L. a crime which should DO
absolutely extirpated. That cannot be ac-
complished by prnitentiary sentences. The
thrty-eiShth general assembly, alive to the
importance OF the subject, made the crime
capital offense. The infiiction OF capital
punishment, however, was left to the discre-
tion OF the jury. Several convictions have
been had since the enactment OF the law re-
ierred to, but ouly penitentiary sentences
were pronounced. In my opinion the men
perpretrate these crimes should he hanged,
and believe that the law should be 30
dnenIcd is to Pro'fide that every person
convicted OF 1t should suffer death. The
governor should also DO authorized TO offer
a reward of at least g. 900 for tho arrest and
conviction o: any person guilty Of the offense
The measure l propose is severe, but the
crime should not be permitted In the state,
and the milder remedies will not be sufficient
to prevent It,"
