DEATH OF FRANCIS Il. DEVICES.
WAS One of the First Defenders of
National Capital.

Francis p. Devices died yesterday after
neon at his residence. pol East Capitol
street He had been in failing heath for
about two years. The remains will be re-
moved to PottsviIe Pa. for interment. His
wife and three children. a son and TWO
daughters, survive him.
Mr.. Devices was born in Pottsville, Pa
nearly sixty-eight years ago. He gradu-
ated from Union College, and. taking up the
law, he became associated with his uncle,
the late +. w. Hughes, in the practice of
that profes sion. At the outbreak of the
civil war he joined one of the compa MES
organized in Pennsylvania and came to this
city for the defense of the national capita
They reached the city nearly a week before
the 9th Massachusetts. and their organiza-
ton was known as the First Defenders
With the first call for a.. 900 troops he en-
listed and served for the three months
period of enlistment. Upon being mustered
out he returned to Pennsylvania and re
sumed the practice of law.
Upon the organization of the greenback
PARTY he became actively identified with it,
and in 1880 was its candidate for judge of
the supreme court of Pennsylvania. \ con
troVerSy arose however, between him and
Gen. Weaver, the partys candidate Tor
President, and the result was that Mr. De-
wees resigned his candidacy and went upon
the stump, advocating the election of Gen.
Hancock, the democratic candidate.
From that time on he was prominently
allied with the democratic party. He was
a forceful writer and an able political
speaker and contributed largely to cam
raign literature AS an author he was per-
haps best known by his work entitled
Molly Maguires."
More than decade ago Mr.. Devices came
to this city to practice his profession as a
member of the firm of Hughes Buchanan
& Devices. President Cleveland in 1885 ap-
pointed him an assistant to the Attorney
General, and he retained the position
through the Harrison administration, retir-
ing in 1893. He then resumed his profess
Sional career in this city

lows:
Manila, Oct. 6-Steamer Siam, which left
San Francisco August 10 with forty-tve

STEAMER LEONA
BURNED AND SUNK.
Caught Fire at Sea, but Managed
to Reach Her Wharf in
East River.

New York, Oct. 6.-The Mallory line
steamer Leona was burned and sunk at
her wharf in East river last night The
cargo, consisting of tobacco and 5000
bales of cotton and valued at $25O,O00 to
100000 is a total loss and the boat is
little better than wreck.
1t is believed that the Leona, which
sailed from Galveston September 81,
caught fire at sea several days ago, since
which time she has proceeded at full
speed, with battened matches, for this
port. At $3.50 o'clock yesterday afternoon
the Leona came racing up East river to
her pier, where haste was made to debark
the passengers and open the matches. An
hour later an army of men was vainly
tghting fire in the steamers hold. FL
nally the ship was scuttled.
The Leona's cargo was still burning
hercely in the forward part of the ship
this morning. The freboat New Yorker,
which lies on the starboard side of the
Leona, was playing lively streams into
the forepart of the ship, and streams
were also being played from the pier.
Ihe plates of the ship were too hot in
the forward part and amidships for the
stevedores and 'longshoremen to attempt
to board her.. In the afterparI Of the
ship the fire was suppressed during the
night.
The Leona lies three-fourths sub
merged, her starboard deck and rail a.
wash. She is on her beam ends and it is
impossible to walk erect upon her on the
submerged deck. Her pole masts indi-
cate an angle of about forty degrees.

Utmost Good Feeling.

Boston, Mass, Oct. 6.-The Spanish
minister, Duke D'Arcos, who has just
left his house at Manchester, said with
regard to the receptions being given Ad-
miral Dewey:
1t does not surprise me in the least Ad-
miral Dewey is a brave and noble man, and
for the extraordinary service he has rem
dered his country no honor that can be
shown him in return is too great. He has
aroused the admiration of the whole world
by the gallantry of his conduct and he
would be a small man indeed who could not
recognize his merit and give free express
sion to his admiration for Dewey's valor.
The minister was emphatic in express
ing the opinion that the very best of
feeling existed between the United States
and Spain. He said:
There are absolutely no differences be-
tween the countries on any point. 1t is the
hope of all true Spaniards that this condi-
ton should exist, and, as for myself, as
the official representative of the Queen Re-
gent, it is the ambition of my life to bring
about the very utmost of good feeling and
good will
