THE HARRINGTON PUBLISHING co
DISASTERS IN THE so UND.
Four Bnrges Sunk or Cornfield Light
 and Two Men Lost.


 New London, Oct. 2S.-The tug Thomas J, Scully, Captain Henry w. Gregg, towing the barges Admiral, Ca marie, Wyandotte and Atlantic, while about four miles west of Cornfield light early this morning was caught in the heavy gale that prevailed and the haw- ser was unable to stand the strain and broke. Soon afterwards the Admiral sprung leak and collided with the second barge, which ultimately resulted in the sinking of the four barges. Two men on the Admiral were lost, but the crew of the Scully, by means of the heaving line, rescued seven men, two women and baby from the other barges. The rescued party were taken aboard the tug one by one and the wo- man with the baby was dragged through the heavy sea, apparently little the worse for her experience. Captain Gregg stayed about until long after daylight in the hopes of finding the drowned men, but was unsuccessful.
 It is reported that about o'clock this morning an unknown schooner While off shore about mile and a half east of Bartlett's reef light, was wrecked in the southwest gale and those aboard drowned. The accident was witnessed by several persons at Goshen, but up to tonight there had been no wreckage washed ashore that would give any clue as to the identity of the schooner.

 Seven Prospectors Aboard.
 Seattle, Wash, Oct. 23.-W. E. Bondy of Berkley, Cal, who has just returned from Sunrise City on Cooks Inlet tells a story of the wrecking of sloop about four weeks ago in which it is probable that nine persons lost their lives. Bondy could learn the names of only two. They were Frank Robinson of Santa Cruz, Cal, and Chris. John son of Cooks Inlet. Johnson was the owner of the sloop. About September % Robinson and Johnson sailed to Xii niak Arm, where they took on board a party of seven prospectors bound for Sunrise. Kiniak Arm is about twenty miles north of Turnagan Arm. After leaving Kiniak Arm the party was never heard of again. A man who saw the sloop take on the party told Bondy that the sloop was loaded down within six inches of the water A few days later Johnson's dog appeared at Sunrise half dead with exhaustion Afterwards a part of the sloop and other wreckage was picked up at the Turning Arm.

COMMENT FROM LONDON.
Gravity of Situation as Revealed by
 Yellow Book Admitted.

London, Oct. 24-The French yellow book on Fashoda seems to indicate an intention on the part of the French government to utilize the Marchand af- fair as means of raising the whole Egyptian question. This impression is confirmed by the comments of most of the Paris papers this morning. The London press admits the gravity of the situation revealed by the yellow book, but the papers are unanimous in declaring that it is impossible for Lord Salisbury to consent to any negotiation until Fashoda is evacuated As, how ever. the French foreign minister, M. Delcasse, with equal firmness declines to withdraw Marchand without previ- ous negotiation the situation has an ominous look.
 The Times, in it's editorial says Lord Salisbury has not replied to Baron de GourcePs pretensions with the decision which might have been hoped for.

THE NEWS FROM HAVANA.
City Officials Demand Payment of Their
 Back Salaries.

Havana, Oct. 2S, S:25 p. m.-Another demonstration of the displeasure of the city officials at the non-payment of ar rears of salary took place yesterday when about two hundred entered the city hall, clamorous mob, and de- manded payment. The regular guard being unable to disperse the crowd, and fearing to take drastic measures, the civil governor, Senor Fernando De Cas- tro, was advised of the situation. He appeared on the scene, addressed the crowd and ordered immediate dispersal under threat of a loss of present posi- tion in the service. His energetic stand had the desired effect, but unless back salaries are paid there will be more se- rious trouble.

4 PEACEFUL SOLUTION.
The Underlying Feeling on the London
 Stock Exchange.

London, Oct. 23.-While the gravity of the Fashoda question is fully appre- ciated, there is an underlying feeling on the stock exchange that a peaceful solution will be found. This is evidenc- ed by the recovery in prices in spite of the absence of reassuring news. On the whole, prices were wonderfully well maintained last week, holders showing little disposition to realize. The steadi- ness of consols had a good effect, for eigners were fractionally lower, but Americans exceptionally firm, prices in many cases closing better, though un- der the level of New York values.

Wilmington, N C., Oct. 2S.-A special to the Star from Lumberton says: At 3 o'clock this morning squad of the negroes who were dispersed at Ashpole, shot three whites stationed there as a guard They were Albert Floyd, Rob- ert Innan and William Bullard. Bull lard is seriously wounded, the others slightly. A hundred whites with blood hounds are now in pursuit, and it is said that four of the negroes have been caught There is great excitement at all points in the state in telegraphic communication with Lumberton. The whites are telegraphing the principal towns in the state for Winchester rifles to be sent there immediately.
 Four negroes who shot three white guards have been captured near Ash pole. They were run down and brought to bay by the bloodhounds, which are thoroughly trained. The negroes are now confined in box cars at Ashpole and heavily guarded. 1t is uncertain yet what the fate of the negroes may be, but it is feared that their oowardly at tempt to assassinate the guards will so exasperate the whites as to cause fur- ther and more serious trouble. The guard was composed of eight or ten men, who were standing around the fire in the open air, thus becoming easy tar- gets for the negroes, who fired on them under cover of darkness and then fled. The Ashpole incident has increased the excitement at Wilmington, which was already near the danger line Groups of white men have been on the street corners all day, eagerly awaiting news from Lumberton and Ashpole.

SPANISH CABINET TROUBLE
THE MINISTER OF VAR THREATENS
 TO RESIGN. -
Demands That the Government Uphold the Captain General of Madrid in the Arrest of the Editor of El Naciomal and the Suppression of the Paper for Which Senor Gamazo Resigned Last Friday.

Madrid, Oct. 23.-Lieutenant Governor Corea, minister of war, threatens to re- sign unless the government upholds the action of General Chincilla, captain- general of Madrid, who last week inn prisoned Senor Figueroa, editor of Fl Nacional, for publishing an article not previously submitted to the censor-the imprisonment being presented in cer- tain quarters as an infringement of Figueroa's alleged immunity from ar rest as a member of the chamber of deputies.
 Senor Gamazo on Friday last tender ed his resignation as minister of public instruction and public works as a pro- test against the arrest of Senor Figue- roa. The Madrid newspapers, accord ing to a cable dispatch of Friday, have addressed a complaint to the supreme court of Madrid against General Chin cilla's action. The captain general, on the appearance of the uncensored arti- cle, ordered the suppression of El Na- cional, but the suspension ordered was eventually annulled.
 The Bank of Spain report for the week ended yesterday shows the fol- flowing changes: Gold in hand, increase 1,546,000 pesetas; silver in hand, increase 1,839,000 pesetas; notes in circulation, increase 2,SS6,000 pesetas.

 CUTS in North Carolina-Negroes Shoot
 Whites and Are Hunted Down by
 BIoodh0unds.
 Memphis, Tenn, Oct. 23.-,A special to the Commercial-Appeal from Forest, Miss, says: As the result of an at- tempt to arrest negro at Harpersville in the eastern part of the state, one white deputy was killed, three wounded and according to the latest report, nine negroes have been killed by the citi- zens of Harpersville and the sheriff's posse combined. The pursuit of about fifty negroes who had joined the orig- 1nal offender with the avoWed deter- imitation to prevent his arrest and cap- ture, and who ambushed the party att tempting the arrest, continues and by morning the number of fatalities will undoubtedly have assumed larger pro- portions. The whole country is ser- libly aroused and the sheriff's posse has been reinforced with men from all the neighboring towns. Governor Me- Lauren has gone to the scene, which is about ten miles north of Forest, the nearest railroad point. / The trouble originated last night when a negro named Bill Burke had an altercation with his employer, o. l.. Hanna, white man.
 According to the statement of reliable citizens six negroes were found killed before the sheriff arrived. This after noon Sheriff Armstrong was wired of the conditions and he was to get to- gether posse and come at once. The sheriff lives at Morton, ten miles from the scene Gathering together posse of twenty or thirty men the sheriff started at once for the place When he arrived he was joined by crowds of citizens until conservative estimate placed the number in the posse as over 300 men. Immediately after leaving the house the negroes scattered through the surrounding country. The sheriff's pursuit has resolved itself into chase for negroes implicated and not of mob, which is keeping together. as was at first reported.

 Sheriff Stevenson wired Governor Me- Lauren at Brandon for aid Upon re- ceipt of this telegram the governor wir- ed Adjutant General Henry at Jackson to get together a company of the Ma tional Guard and proceed to the scene upon the first train. General Henry immediately reported that there was no National Guard obtainable, but that he. would get together company of armed men and render all necessary assist ance. In the meantime the governor procured a special train at Brandon, and, accompanied by a posse of thirty men armed with shotguns, proceeded to Harpersville The posse is operating in the swamps about a mile from Har- persville, where most of the fugitives are supposed to be concealed.
