STEAMER MAY HATE FOUNDERED. Belief That the Niagara Has Gone Down
 i'm Lake Erie.

Port Colborne, Ont, Dec. S.--It is be- lleved here tonight that the Canadian steamer Niagara has foundered on Lake Erie and that all hands were lost The crew probably comprised sixteen per- sons, all told. Of these Captain Henry McGlory master of the lost steamer, is the only one known here. The Niagara had a cargo of lumber and shingles and was bound from Georgia Bay to Buffalo. On Tuesday the Niagara was sighted off Long Point in the heavy gale and snowstorm. The steamers Orio and M. T. Greene arrived this af- ternoon from Buffalo and report pass ing through great quantity of wreck age, consisting of lumber, shingles and pieces of a wooden steamer. No name was visible on any of the wreckage The Niagara is the only boat known to be missing. She was operated by the Matthews line of Toronto, Ont MT. Matthews to-day telegraphed that he had heard nothing from the boat since she passed Detroit on Monday. Captain McGlory lived in this city. He leaves a widow and several children. All of the crew were probably Canadians and it is thought that a number of them lived at St. Catherines.

 Fourth-That the very men who in terpreted the manifesto of 1S9O of the Mormon church, to prohibit unlawful cohabitation with prior acquired wives now publicly justify it's continuance.
 F'ifth-That most of the same men who in petition for amnesty pledged their sacred honor for the obedience of the law by their people are now en- couraging the commission of unlawful cohabitation.
 Sixth-That men holding high church office have pleaded guilty to the crime of unlawful cohabitation before the state courts without having their church standing affected.
 Seventh-All this is by necessity im- plication endorsed by majority of Utahs people in the election of Brigham II. Roberts, who during his campaign was publicly charged with being vio- later of the laws. and in spite of unde nied charges, was elected by an over- whelming majority.
 That MT. Roberts himself understood that compact to mean the discontinu ance of unlawful cohabitatton, we point to his registration oath of 1895, in which he swore 1t to be his intention to obey the law prohibiting unlawful cohabi- tation. Signed:

LAFA YETTE SOUVENIR DOLLARS. Purchase of Silver Bullion for Their
 Special Mimtage Ordered.

Purchase or StIvfr Bullion for Their
 Special Nimtage Ordered.
 Washington, Dec. S.-The secretary of the treasury to-day ordered the pur- chase of silver bullion for the special mintage of the Lafayette souvenir dol lars. Arrangements are making to mint the coins on the 18th. A specimen coin was submitted by MT. Gage to the Lafayette memorial commission some days ago and upon the recommendation of the special expert committee com posed of artists Frank Millett and c. A. Coolidge, who pronounced the coin the most artistic piece of work turned out by the United States mint, was ap- proved. The secretary of the Lafayette memorial commission says subscriptions which have been opened to the public are coming in rapidly and that the coins are likely to be all subscribed for be- fore the first of the year. Secretary Thompson to-day received official ad- vices from President Mckinley of his agreement to present the first coin struck of the 50,000 to President Loubet of France. Subscriptions for coins at $2 are being received at the American Trust & Savings bank of Chicago. 1ST PAGE

NORFOLK,S MYSTERY.
Rewards Offered in Cases Of Attempted
 Murder by Shooting and POtsOM.

1 Norfolk, Conn, Dec. S.--The select- men of Norfolk to-day offered reward
 of $200, which has been augmented by l the addition of $150 from the citizens, | to the person or persons who will fur ] nish information for the arrest and con- viction of the person who shot Fred erick Drinkwater on the night of Sat- | urday, November 25. Nothing in the offered reward refers, however, to the supposed attempted assassination of Mrs. Drnkwater by poisoning a week ago tonight. First Selectman Edward J. Prescott received letter last night
 from Professor Witthaus of New York, who has figured prominently as an ex' pert in the Molineux case, rendering his services to the authorities for the pur- pose of determining the poison that was found in the bowl of tea from which Mrs. Drinkwater had drank and also the
 contents of the vial found outside the
 window. The letter reached the Nor
 folk authorities too late, however, for
 them to call Professor Witthaus' into
 the case, IS the poison had previously
 been sent to the laboratory of Yale uni
 versity for analysis.
 There has been a growing feeling in the town during the past few days that
 members of the Drinkwater household could, if they would, throw some light on the supposed attempted poisoning of
 Mrs. Drinkwater. MT. Drinkwater is authority for the statement that a few years ago his wife attempted to end her life by taking laudanum, but the at tempt was frustrated, and that the eld- est daughter likewise made an unsuc- cessful attempt to end her life by the same means some time ago. Through court case in which Mrs. Drinkwater figured in 1897, but which resulted in her discharge after hearing lasting several days, considerable notoriety was acquired, and it is said that since the last affair which has again brought the family into public gaze Mrs. Drinkwa- ter has become Respondent, knowing that the episode in which she figured was revived. It is intimated that the next few days will result in develop ments that will tend to solve the mys- tery surrounding both the shooting and poisoning cases.

FEATURES OF moLrNEux TRIAL.
Accused Former Servant Girl Captured M0OdMs, Conn. Man Testiffes.


 New York, Dec. S.-Several interest ing points developed to-day in the trial of Roland B. Molineaux for the murder of Mrs. Katherine J. Adams. First, there was the capture of an inn portant witness for the prosecution. This was Mamie Mullanda, the young woman who cared for Molineux's rooms at Newark. Through ruse in the de- tective force, she was induced to come across the Jersey line to Suffern, N Y. She was placed under arrest and brought to New York city. It is said that she will be placed on the stand by the state and compelled to testify that Molineux was accustomed to use the now famous blue paper surmounted by the three interlaced crescents.
 This same paper mades it's appear ance again in the case later in the day when George William Hall of Moodus, Conn.,, was called for the purpose of testifying concerning letter which fell into the possession of his employer, Prof. Fowler. Witness said that James Burns of Detroit, Mich, sold great many thousand letters to Prof Fowler,
 
 signature Roland B. Molineux" was noticed and the New York authorities were notified of the find. The defense admitted the identity of this letter as having been written by the defendant. This is considered an important point owing to the fact that it was written upon blue crescent shaped paper and the defense has acknowledged the writ ina o! it.
 It seemed to be day of victories for the prosecution for the specimens of handwriting written by Molineux before his arrest and at the time that Cornish was under suspicion were ad- mitted, also the diagnosis blank of a patent medicine concern with the blanks filled out in handwriting said to be the same as that of other lettels in evidence and signed H. c. Barnett and in the face of strenuous objections Expert Kinsley was permitted to tes- tify that in his opinion Molineux wrote the address on the poison package sent to Harry Cornish.
