BUFFETED BY WINDS.
The Atlantic Liners Encounter Heavy
Weather.

New York, Feb. 25.-During the
steamers arrived in port bringing start
ling tales of narrow escapes from death.
The 400 souls on the Adriatic, Just ar
rived from Liverpool after the most
tempestuous voyage in its career, are
thanking Providence the vessel did not
turn turtle in midocean during the trip
across.
This vessel had narrow escape from
laundering in gale on Wednesday last,
when her cargo shifted and the engines
became deranged. 1t was the climax
Of six-days' struggle with the ele-
ments. The crew worked with despera-
tion. All available men were set to
work trimming cargo. When it was
nearly finished the machinery became
unmanageable.
The destiny of the vessel was shifted
from the crew to the men in the chief
engineers department, and for six
hours, during which the Adriatic was
hove to, her fate hung in the balance.
On Wednesday, while the seas were yet
making millrace of the decks, the ma
chlnery was repaired and the vessel
again shaped course for this port.
The Adriatic had forty-fve cabin and
ninety-five steerage passengers and
crew, making a total of nearly 400 peo-
pie. She left Queenstown February
IL. Captain Snowden said the trip was
the worst he had ever seen in his
twenty-five years. experience.
The st. Paul also experienced most
tempestuous voyage. The vessel was
delayed by heavy seas propelled by
fierce western gales, from the time she
left Southampton. To add to the dis
comfort of the passengers rain fell al
most continuously, making it impos-
sible for them to go on deck.
"In all my experience" said Captain
Jameson, 81 do not remember of

Fiery Resolution introduced by u
Tennessee Repreaentatiye

Washington, Feb. 25.-Representa-
tive Gibson, of Tennessee, has intro
duced joint resolution directing that
the president demand of the Spanish
authorities in Cuba the immediate res
toration to liberty of every American
citizen, native-born or naturalized, now
imprisoned by them in the island of
Cuba, and that in support of the de-
mand the president is authorized and
directed to accompany it by the pres
ence of sufficient number Of United
States ships Of war to max the demand
good, and, if it is not granted within
twenty-four hours, that the city of Ha-
vana, and, if need be, other ports of
Cuba, be bombarded until it is fully
complied with and all American citi-
zens delivered to the commanders of
our warships.

The Day in the Senate.

Washington, Feb. 25.-The senate
made slow progress today on the Indian
appropriation bill, disposing of only one
item of the bill, that directing the
opening of the Uncompahgre Indian
reservation in Utah. 1t involved a con-
hict with the executive branch, which
has steadily resisted opening these
lands on the ground that they contained
valuable mineral deposits. Villas en-
deavored to have royalty reserved for
the government, but was defeated in
this, and the clause was agreed to after
an all-day debate.
During the day resolution by Mills
was adopted, asking the president for
information as to the death of Dr. Ruiz
at Guanabacoa, Cuba.
In the course of the debate, Wilson of
Washington, alluded to the presidents
order of yesterday, withdrawing from
the public domain $1,000, 900 acres of
land and constituting various forest re-
serves.
Cannon declared that there was not
the slightest knowledge of the subject
displayed on the part of the order max
ing the designation, and that land in
Utah had been designated as forest
land when in fact there was no timber
on it larger than jackrabbit bush.

A NEST OF THIEVES.
Arrests Made by the Seattle Police Led
to n Find.

Seattle, Feb. 26.-The arrests last
night of Mack McAlpin, William
Laurie and Charles Hussey, the latter
l6-year-old boy, led the police into a
nest OF counterfeiters, as well as thieves.
1t is not thought that any spurious coin
has been passed, and the specimens
obtained by the police show such work
manship that it seems hardly possible
that much of it could be worked off.
The evidence obtained was found in a
cabin occupied by the three men. The
tools were not discovered, but it is be-
lieved they are secreted somewhere
about the cabin.
In addition to this, the police have
indisputable evidence that the men now
in custody were doing a wholesale burg
larry business. Their cabin was we'll
supplied with all kinds of household
goods, cigars, tobacco, ETC., a great deal
OF which has been identified as belong
ing to other persons.
Early this morning the safe in a
grocery store in residence part of the
city was blown open by cracksmen and
$26 taken. The men were not much
afraid of detection, for the safe, which
is small one, was taken out of the
store into the street, and there blown
open with powder. 1t is supposed
the work was done by the same men
who recently broke into safe in the
office of the Oregon improvement Com.

THE LAST MONEY BILL.
House Passed Appropriations for Naval
Establishment.

Washington, Feb. 25.-The house
sent the naval bill, the last of the ap-
preparation bills, to the senate TODAY.
Boutelle, chairman of the naval COM
mittee, was in charge of the measure,
and displayed such skill in its handling
that its provisions aroused little oppo-
sition, and it was passed practically
without amendment. Barrett made an
effort to secure an authorization for a
irydock at Boston to cost 81, 600, 900,
but, after somewhat acrimonious de-
bate, the amendment was ruled out of
order. He then tried to secure the ap-
pointment of a committee to pass on the
relative merits of Boston and Ports
mouth as location for a drydock, and
was equally unsuccessful.
