Yiyed; the treaty of 1877, providing fo1

DETROIT, Mich, Nov. 30.-A special
to The News from Grand Rapids, Mich,
says: Isaac Schulter, Grand Rapids and
Indiana station agent at Martin, and his
assistant, Marshall Wickes, had wild
West battle with two robbers in the
depot. Wickes and one Of the burglars
were wounded. The robbers had blown
open the depot safe. A burglar alarm
ran from the depot to Schulter's house,
and when the robbers began work,
Schulter and Wickes appeared armed
with Winchesters and ordered the ban
dts to throw up their hands. Instead
they opened fire and fusilade of shots
were exchanged. Wickes fell, badly
wounded, but will recover. One of the
robbers was shot in the leg, but both
escaped. The unwounded man stole
horse from farmers barn and rode
toward Grand Rapids. When his horse
became exhausted he stole another.
Both the robbers were easily captured
later, one of them at Dunlike, the other
at Wayland. They were tracked through
the snow by posses of citizens.

AT VINEYARD HAVEN.

Vessels Driven Ashore, Many. of Them to
Be Dashed to Pieces.
VINEYARD HAVEN, Nov. 30 Sunday
was the most eventful day that Vine
yard Haven has known for 40 years.
From early morning until late at night
the water was strewn with wreckage
and vessels were constantly driven
ashore, many of them to be dashed to
pieces. A fleet Of coasting vessels from
st. Johns and other ports in the prov
inces and Maine were battered to frag-
ments. Most Of the vessels driven
ashore were obliged to part their cables
owing to the great danger Of collision
with other vessels which had broken
adrift. The driving snow storm pre-
vented the lifesavers from keeping a
good lookout for distress signals. Of
the fleet Of two score Of vessels that
came to anchor before the storm, hardly
one escaped damage. Some loss Of life
is feared.

HEARD FROM DAY.

Washington Government Officially Ad-
vised of the Conclusion of Peace.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.-The govern
ment has been officially advised of the
successful termination of the peace ne
gotiations with Spain. A cablegram to
this effect, which had been received
from Chairman Day, was read at the
cabinet meeting by the secretary of
state. By the terms of the treaty,
which will be signed during the present
week, Spain surrenders to the United
States her sovereignty in the Philippine
islands and Guam island, one of the
Ladrone group. In lieu of all claims
for indemnity, the United States will
pay Spain the sum of $50, ,000, 900 in gold
or its equivalent. Before returning to
the United States, our Paris commits
sioners will secure from the Spanish
representatives if possible, proposition
for the sale to the United States of
Strong island, one Of the Caroline group,
some distance east and south Of Luzon,
for cable station. Should Spain, how
ever, decline to sell the island for rea-
sonable sum, the matter will be dropped
for the present at least. The possible
cession of this island is not involved in
the pending treaty, and no pressure will
be brought to bear to induce Spain to
part with it. A large part Of the time
of the cabinet meeting was consumed in
the discussion of the new customs tariff
which is to be put into operation in all
parts of Cuba, as soon as the United
States takes formal possession.

BAD YEAR ON THE LAKES.

Disasters to Shipping Greater Than Ever
Before.
CHICAGO, Nov. 30.-A careful esti.
mate of losses to shipping and vessel
owners on the Great Lakes for the rec.
ord breaking year of 1898 places the
probable figures at $2,50O,OOO. This
may be increased before the close OF
navigation, but even without more
storms or foundered, vessels it will hold
first place for losses in the history OF
lake navigation. The year 1896 had
hitherto held the record with total
loss of $1,000, ,697. It still stands as the
closest rival with the memorable season
just concluding.
The big storms of October and No.
vember, 1898, have made this an extra
ordinary year.

NEARLY TWO HUNDRED.

Total Of Vessels Wrecked on New Eng
lands Coast Very Large.
. BOSTON, Nov. 3O.-From reports that
came by wire, mail and messenger from
New England points up to 10 o'clock q.
M, it was difficult to estimate the total
loss of life and damage to shipping
along the coast, as the result Of the re-
cent storm. The list Of disasters seems
to grow every hour, and from dispatches
thus far received, it appears that at
least so schooners have been wrecked at
different points from Eastport, Me-, to
New Haven, Conn. Eighty-six schoon-
ers have been driven ashore and IA
barges, loaded or empty, are aground.
This list does not include the 30 vessels
either wholly or partially wrecked in
Boston harbor, nor hall. dozen or more
craft which are reported missing, in
cluding the Boston and Portland steamer
Portland, nor the big Wilson line
freighter, Ohio, which is ashore on Spec
tacle island in this harbor; the steamer
John j. Hill, which is ashore at At
lantic; the Merchants and Miner trans
portation steamer Fairfax, ashore on
Sow and Pigs ledge, off Cuttyhunk, nor
the small steamer George A. Chaffee,
foundered at Rockport, Mass. When
these are added, the aggregate list ex-
ceeds ITO vessels.
The loss of life is hard to determine.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.-It is the i'm
preston at the state department, in the
absence of anything save press reports
of the proceedings at Paris, that the
commissions work is now near an end
and that about two weeks time will
suffice to close it up. This is based on
the belief that instead of undertaking to
arrange the several matters yet to be
settled in the treaty Of peace a general
clause will be placed in the treaty bind
ing each Of the parties to begin negotia-
tions in the near future upon the sub
iects.
