STEAMER PARIS
Has Been Freed From the ManacIes
Ready to Sail.

LONDON, July IL. = The salvagers
have moved the American line steamer
Paris astern for distance of $50 yards
and have shifted the vessels position
slightly to the eastward. They hope to
be able to get the after stokehold fires
aight.
The Paris was now clear of the rocks.
The sea was smooth, but a heavy fog
prevailed.
The intention of the salvages was
simply to slew the stern OF the liner SO
as TO facilitate the operations of the
divers, but it was found that she moved
more freely than was expected. Three
salvage boats alone practically removed
her from critical position unaided.
She still has a distinct list, however, to
the starboard and cannot be assumed
out Of danger.
The tugs are preparing to tow her to
Falmouth harbor.

PITTsBURe, July 12.-"It is my opinion
that if the governor calls special ses-

vindication, and it is my opinion that he
will receive it."

Hon. Ward r. Bliss, member Of the
house from Delaware county. Mr. Bliss
was one Of the most active of the insur-

election Of Senator Quay by the last
