TITO STEAMERS WRECKED. Marine Loss of the Year on the
 Great Lakes.

Duluth, Minn., Nov. 24.-The heavi- est marine loss of the year is reported to-day by the Inman Tug Castle, which has returned from the wreck of the freight steamer Tampa at Beaver Bay. The tug Castle found the steel freight steamer Arthur Orr nine miles further eastward from the Tampa, ashore and broken in two. The great blizzard caus- ed the wreck of both steamers. The crew from the Orr had made their way to Beaver Bay, wehe they tried to go the nine miles to that place. They suf- fered with the cold. They were greatly surprised to find the men from the Tampa at the Beaver Bay, and until then they knew nothing of the wreck of the Tampa. The Orr left here Mon- day with 2,200 tons of flour and 500 tons of copper. shipped on account of the Northern Steamship company. The Orr went ashore about the same time the Tampa did. The coast is very rocky, the shore sliding into deep water suddenly, which makes the steamers position ex- tremely dangerous. The spot where the Orr rests is shown on the charts as Baptism river. The Orr was worth $175,- 900 and was insured for $145,O0O. Her cargo was worth $125,000. The Tampa was worth $100,000.

In the course of his remarks MT. Jackson said a great German chief upon reading the report of the battle of Santiago ex- pressed unqualified admiration of the spirit of the American soldiers, who though knowing that the enemy was armed with better weapons never for a moment doubted that they would viii the victory. General Wheaton in his address said he hoped congress would now realize the fact that the United States needs an army commensurate with the requirements of a great na- tion. The dinner was followed by a dance.

 Treaty, Which May be Subject to
 Ratification by the Cortes-BcIief That
 This Will Provoke an Internal Crisis.
 London, Nov. 25.-The Madrid corre- spondent of the Daily Mail says: "The cabinet will make a final decision to- morrow (Friday), but it is agreed on principle to authorize Senor Montero Rios, president of the Spanish commits sion to sign a peace treaty, although the commissioners may be instructed to insist upon its ratification by the cortes.

Anrunken nInn,s Ruse.

Bridgeport, Conn.,, Nov.-24.--Aal Druggist Trope, whose store is located on Iranistan avenue, near State, opened his place of business this morning he discovered a man lying on the floor ap-. parently dead and clutching bottle marked Prussic acid. MT. Trope at once notified the authorities and the emer- gency ambulance was sent to the scene. As the officers were about to remove the man to the ambulance an empty pint bottle that had contained whisky was found by his side and the result was that the man instead of being taken to the hospital was conveyed to the police station. MT. Trope recognized the man as a person giving the name of Scott who applied for a clerkship in the store few days previously. In-s stead of getting the clerkship he will probably get term in jail as Mr. Trope intends to prosecute him for bur- glary.

TEsT1MoNH OF COL. pICoUARr
It Was SensationnI-He Broke Down
 and Appealed to Judges.

Paris, Nov. 24.-Despite attempts to maintain secrecy regarding the matter, it has leaked out that Colonel Pic quarts deposition before the court or cessation was sensational. Colonel Picquart, it is said, broke down, wept and appealed to the judges to simplify his terrible ordeal. It is believed that the courts demand for the secret doc ument will lead to renewed conflict between the military and civil authori- ties. It is said that M. DeFreycinet, minister of war, vainly appealed to General Surlinden, the military gover- nor of Paris, to grant Colonel Picquart provisional liberty. Much indignation is manifested by the Dreyfusites at the decision to try Colonel Picquart by court-martial.
