Sunday night. changing to sleet in the

Not much damage has been caused in

lThe Mohegan was built for the Wilson
a Furness-Leyden line in England last
year. She was one OF the five steel ships,
and took the highest class register at
Lloyds. She was 4S0 feet long, with a beam
OF 90 feet and depth OF 81 feet. She was OF
1000 tons gross register and had a carrying
capacity OF 10000 tons. She had speed OF
IL knots. which enabled her to make the
trip in about ten days. She was purchased
from the Wilson line by the Atlantic Trans

One Of the stanchest supporters OF the

rience and considerable prominence in his
profession. He was assistant engineer on the
Hudson River Railroad in 1850 and has

1915, and has large acquaintance among the
business men and citizens OF this city.
Two years ago. for the first time, Major
Bishop was in the hospital. For two months
he had the best OF medical attendance, bat
when he was discharged he was not like the

over 400 Persons Were Drowned BY
the Wrecking OF the Michigan
on Falmouth, Eng.

Falmouth, England, Oct. 17.--More
than 100 lives were swallowed up by
the sea when the steamer Mohegan
went down Friday night. Although
the number of victims is not so large
as at first reported, the best accounts
obtainable show two-thirds of those
aboard persisted. All day long bodies
were washed ashore along the coast,
and wreckage is scattered along the
beach for miles. The survivors are
receiving the best of attention and
care. OF the l6l persons on board the
Mohegan when she struck the rocks
only As escaped, and these were near
~ all picked up by boat from the life
saving station.
Up to midnight 81 bodies had been
recovered. Some were found miles
away, in coyes, and IL Is expected that
more will be washed ashore to-day.
Many persons undoubtedly were killed
by being dashed on the rough rocks
who would have escaped IL cast ashore
on an ordinary coast. Some of the
bodies are horribly mangled. A good
deal of jewelry and money has been
found AS all the navigating officers
were lost, il is doubtful whether light
will ever be thrown on the causes OF
the disaster.
From the best evidence obtainable
at st. Keverine il appears that the Mo-
hogan foundered five minutes after she
struck the rocks. She was going at
full speed; she struck twice, stopped
and rapidly settled in the water. As
the captain and the executive officers
of the steamer went down with her, 1t

"Hls powers are wonderful to me,

throng Of patrons, some waiting to
know II they would soon make a
change in their business conditions;
Others II absent friends would return;
Others IL their present difficulties
would cease, and still others II they
would be successful In their love af-
fairs.
Some wanted to know what their
really was, and whether or
not they could be cured. 1t is said
Prof. Chesterfield is a most remark
able dignostician.
His summer engagements will soon

The lower house OF the American
congress has adopted resolution TO
annex the Hawaiian Islands by vote
OF 200 to el. All who voted for it we're
not Republicans, 27 Of them being
Democrats, Popullsts and Silver Re-
publicans. Newlands of Nevada,
Silver Republican, offered the resolu-
tioD. Only three who voted against
the resolution we're Republicans.
Speaker Reed was absent but sent
word that II present when the vote
was taken he would vote against IT
also.
The Newlands resolution places the
appointment OF all the civil, judicial
and military officers in the hands of
the president and would il adopted by
the senate and approved by the presl-
dent set aside the present Republican
form of government established on
the islands. This in spite of the
fact tnat President Dole is to hold
his Office until 1900.
There are In Hawaii BLOB natives,
24,407 japanese, and 2l,6l0 Chinese
besides 3Os6 Americans. The Amerl-
cans are now the ruling power and
probably always will be. Cne senate
is debating tie question Of annexa-
tion on the Newlands resolution. In
the senate there is no limit put on
debate, and the members who are OPP
posed to annexation are going to try
TO kill the bill by debating 1t until
congress adjourns. But II the war
lasts congress does not adjourn
until March 4, 1899, when this con-
gress dies by limitation.
The proposition to annex Hawaii
was not found In the national plat
form OF any party In 1896. The ques-
tion IL being taken up and debated In
the public press. The only use we
could make of the island would be
for military, naYal and coallng
station. 1t is said we already have
all these privileges and the free use
OF Pearl Harbor. The annexation OF
the islands would make places for
thousands OF Americans In Official
and military Offices and compel our
country TO have large navy.
