Gloucester. Mass. Dec. M.-On Oct.
i the schooner Anne and Mary. Cap
tain John sigsworth. sailed from this
port on O. hand lining trip to- Georges
Banks. She carried an exceptionally
good crew of about 10 men. On Oct.
rs the vessel put in at Long Island, Me-.
for second supply of bait, and many
letters were sent from that port to the
families of the crew In this city. Soon
after the vessel left Long Island the
North Atlantic fishing grounds were
swept by severe gales, In which many
Gloucester crafts narrowly escaped
laundering and others made provincial
ports in badly damaged conditions. The
Anne and Mary was NOT among the
number. and no tidings Of her have
ever been received. 1t will be Il weeks
next Friday since the vessel sailed
away.
Another Gloucester schooner which Is
long overdue and given up for lost is

halibut trip to the Grand Banks. She
has been gone II weeks. The Nc
Kenzie was the largest and best fitted

Chicago, Dec. 2t.-Mrs. George Pull
man has decided to accept her dover
interest in the estate of her husband
instead of abiding by the terms Of the
will. According to the will she would
be given $50, 900 in cash, the homestead
In Chicago and the income from $780,
900 during her life, the sum to revert to
the estate after her death. Her ac-
ceptance of the will would have made
1t practically impossible for her to leave
anything to the two sons who were
practically disinherited by their father.
Her third interest as dover gives her
100000 in personal property and one
third interest for life in the real es-
tate held by Mr.. Pullman. This esti-
mate makes the estate Of Mr.. Pullman
aggregate at least $15.00O,000, instead
of $7,000,08O as announced Immediately

London, Dec. 21.-The newspapers are
still busily discussing the partition Of
China" The Daily Nails dispatch
from Shanghai denying that Russia
has seized Port Arthur probably only
means that the Russians have not yet
actually landed. The reports concern
ing the Daphne and the British feet
wintering at Wei-Hai-Wei are offici-
ally denied, but it is alleged, with some
show of authority, that the govern
ment knew Of Russia's occupation of

New York, Dec. 21.-Two pasteboard

was panic in the car, but the fact
that when the accident occurred the
car was stationary and the gates were
open, operated to avoid disastrous re-
suits. The car was badly wrecked.
