Those familiar with European poll

of the Emperor of Russia to do the
peace business meant that he was
ready to strike, and that he simply
tried to play game OF bluff on the
world. He might have succeeded,
but his plans we're destroyed by the
killing OF the Empress of Austria, a
crime which could not gain a single
iota OF benefit to the cause of the
arnachists, but which has necessari
ly created determined and hostile

try to defy and to fight the estab-
lished organizations of the civilized

No one knew better than the poor
dead Empress what he fate of
Austria will be after her husband
passes away. Francis Jo'eph has
expressed his wish to abdicate
several times. After the suicide-or
as it is officially called-assassina
tion of Rudolph, the Crown Prince,
his only son, he wanted to retire and
leave it to the conglometation OF
nationalities in Austria to fight out
their own battles, He was persuad-
ed to retain the imperial crown, but
after this last blow, which the un-
happy ruler has received, the crisis
is near.

In one of his campaigns Friedrich the
Great of Prussia, to prevent his where
abouts from being betrayed to the ene-
my, ordered all lights to be extinguish-
ed at certain hour. The penalty of
disobedience was to be death. The
King occasionally passed through the
camp at night to ascertain whether his
order was strictly attended to.
One night he observed light in one
of the tents, and entering it, found an
officer sitting at table closing letter.
Asked how he dared thus disregard the
Kings command, the officer replied that
he had been writing letter to his wife.
The King orderd him to open his letter,
to take his pen and add these words:
"BefOre this letter reaches your hands
1 shall have been shot for disobeying an
order of the King"
The sentence was harsh, but the crime
was great, risking as it did the lives of
thousands. Fredrick's orders were
ever afterward strictly obeyed.-Spare

DIVERS AT WORK.
Several Bodies Taken From the Wreck
The Naval Court.

Several Bodies Taken From the Wreck
The Naval Court.
Havana, Feb. 24.-The court of in
quiry opened at 1920 and took recess
at 1890. Lieutenant Horn, navigator
of the Maine, was examined at the
morning session. The court met for
the afternoon session at 1880. and Lieu
tenant Commander Wainwright has
been in immediate charge of the wreck
since the explosion. Four divers were
at work, two in the fore part of the ship
and the others aft. The task is most
laborious, and the men are naturally
extremely careful, as they have to
work in complete darkness, and several
have had bad falls. Electric lights
from the Mangrove are now available,
and much good is expected from them.
Nearly all the possible salvage has been
made in the cabin aft. Work in the
ward and messrooms is frustrated by
some unknown obstacle. 1t is expected
to find bodies in these rooms. Two
cases of 10-inch ammunition have been
found, one having exploded. the other
full of powder. They were found Tor
ward. The work of securing the bodies
under the hatch has been most difficult,
but it is hoped the electric lights will
be of great assistance. The bodies are
much mutilated and some are partially
burned.
The officers of the court of inquiry
paid another visit to the wreck today.
Among the salvage is the tableware
and silver service belonging to the
Maine.
George w. Koebler, of Brooklyn,
died today at the military hospital.
All the other injured show some i'm
provement. The bodies of IL firemen
have been taken out from under the
hatch leading from the superstructure
to the fireroom. None were recognized,
and all were necessarily dismembered in
the course of removal.

WAR TALK IN SENATE.
Allen Brought on Sharp Debate on
the Cuban Question.

Allen Brought on Sharp Debate on
the Cuban Question.
Washington, Feb. 25.-While the
senate had under consideration the
diplomatic and consular appropriation
bill today, sharp debate on the
Cuban situation was precipitated by
Allen Pop, Neb.), who offered as an
amendment the revolution passed by
the senate year ago recognizing the
belligerent rights of the Cuban insur-
gents. The debate lasted nearly four
hours.
In the course of reply to the pre-
liminary statement OF Allen, Morgan
(Dem., Ala.) said that this ceuntry's
relations with Spain at the present
time were seriously strained, and IN
tervention by the United States, which
a year ago would have been inoffenslve,
now would almost be q cause for war.
He expressed the opinion that the
Cuban affair would be eventually SUD-
mitted to arbitration between the
United States and Spain, but ne did
not want war precipitated by rash leg
islation.
Aliens amendment was finally ruled
out of order, and an appeal from the
ruling taken by the Nebraska senator
was laid on the table by q vote OF o.
to 3.

TWENTY MEN LOST.
The British Ship Asia Wrecked Near
Nantucket.

Boston, Feb. 24.-There is scarcely a
doubt that the British ship Asia, bound
from Manila for this port. was wrecked
near Nantucket during the gales of the
past few days, and that her entire crew
OF 20 men have persisted. This con-
clusion is not only borne out by wreck
age, consisting of the stern of boat,
yards and other materials, which were
cast ashore at Montmory, but Captain
Haley. of this city, telephoned from
Woods Hall tonight that, while the
tugboat E. V. McCauley was steaming
out to the barge Excelsior, which lies
sunk on Handkerchief shoal, he saw
positive evidence of the wreck of a
large, square-rigged vessel, and recov-
cred two bodies from a portion of a
dismantled hull.
Captain Haley stated that while off
the Handkerchief lightship the tug
passed through large amount of wreck
age, including bales of hemp, broken
spars and broken ship timbers. Drift
ing in the midst of this was portion
OF the wreck, on which the bodies were
lashed. 1t was discovered that the
bodies were those of a man and little
girl apparently 10 years old. They
were fast in the mizzen chains. The
tug quickly headed in the direction of
the wreck, ard the crew released the
bodies, and the tug returned to Woods
Hall, where the news was sent to this
city.
A later message from Captain Haley
stated that the wreckage was fallen in
with about five miles north northwest
OF the Handkerchief lightship. The
starboard quarter of the vessel was all
that remained intact. The mans body
was hanging to the mizzen rigging, the
child being in his arms. The body was
that of Captain Cook, of the Asia, judg-
ing from a masters certificate found
on the clothing of the dead man. The
certificate was issued at Weymouth, N.
S., to John Cook, and gave the year of
the mans birth as 1843.
AS the tug was ordered away from
Woods Hall, the bodies we're later
taken ashore and given into the keep
ing of the residents to await the med
ical examination. The vessels cargo
of hemp was consigned to Henry Pea
body, of Salem.
The vessel was valued at $25, 900,
and is thought to be only partially in
sured. She was owned by Taylor
Brothers, OF St. Johns, N. B.

the Danube, the Thistle and the Tees,
returned today from Skagway, each
with few Dawsonites on board. There
was very little gold On board and no
late news. Passengers from Skagway
bring news of blockade of the Dyea
trail by miners and packers. who re
sisted the demand of detachment of
United States troops to go over the
trail before them. 1t was feared at
Dyea that trouble would arise over the
affair
Another shooting affair occurred at

Ryan shot and wounded a newcomer,
whose name was not given. Ryan was
promptly arrested and taken to Sitka
for trial.
Mike Quinlan, formerly of Minneap-
oils, has been appointed marshal of
Skagway. A Jail is being provided.
Two men, whose names are not
known, were detected robbing cache
at Sheep Camp, and one OF them, while
trying to escape, turned and fired at
his pursuers, who returned his fire
and dropped to the ground. Thinking
that he had killed them, the fugitive
turned the revolver ON himself and sent
a bullet through his brain. The other
man was taken back to Dyea, with a
placard on him, setting forth that he
was thief. He was afterward lodged
in Jail.
Complaints are being made at Skag-
way in relation to the number of men
arriving there by each boat without
means of subsistence.
Among the returning Dawsonites
was George Beldon, one of the last men
to go up the Yukon last fall. He was
one of syndicate which purchased the
little steamer from the Greek mission
for $40, 900, and made an attempt to
reach Dawson, but got only to Circle
