STEAMER CAPTAIN KILLED.
TempeStuOus Voyage of the Adria
from Antwerp to New York.

NEW YORK, Feb 12.-The Hamburg
American line steamer Adria, chartered by
the International Navigation Company, ar
rived last night from Antwerp, after a most
tempestuous passage, during which Captain
Won LeVetzow was thrown down into the
cabin passage way and killed. The Adria
left Antwerp on Jan. 10, and experienced
succession Of gales, storms and hurricanes
during the entire passage. The vessel being
in ballast, little headway could be made
against the terrific weather which contin-
ued without cessation during the entire
voyage. Early in the morning of Jan. 30
Captain Won Levetzow left the bridge, in
tending to go to the cabin. He succeeded
in reaching the cabin passageway, when he
was thrown violently to the deck where he
lay when found lifelesS by one of his Of
hcers. Death had taken place some hours
previously. The officers were of the opinion
that the captain had been thrown down Vio-
lently and became insensible on entering the
passage way. In this condition he was
thrown from side to side by the violence Of
the storm and the rolling of the steamer
When discovered by his officers Captain
Won LeVetZows 5 head was smashed in and
his blood covered the sides and ceiling Of
the pasSageway. The body was buried Ut
sea the same day. Captain Won Levetzow
was forty-tWo years of age, a native of
Hamburg.

DISASTROUS GALE.
Numerous Casualties Along the Coasts

LONDON, Feb. PA heavy gale swept

Rivers have overflowed their banks, rail-
ways have been submerged and there have
been numerous casualties along the coast
AT Newport, Monmouthshire, a huge tidal
wave leaped over the sea walls, submerging

foundered off Cromer, Norfolk county, and
five of her crew were drowned.
1t Is feared that the loss of the British
steamer Arno, which foundered in the gale
off Nab lightship will prove very serious
disaster. The captain and three members
OF the crew who reached Southsea in an
exhausted condition with their boat prac-
tically smashed up, report that thirteen men
are missing Of the ships company. One of
the men had his leg broken and none for
time was able to give any coherent ac-
count of his experience, so terrible had been
the sufferings. The Arno was wrecked with

cast ashore. AT o'clock in the morning
they were found lying helpless by the po-
lice and coast guards and one was barely
restored by artificial respiration.

Wouldn allow newspaper man to coma

necessary. The betrayal of Information
means the putting of the enemy on their
guard. AT crucial time during the recent
war, newspaper correspondent--you know
who he is-sent dispatch to his paper re-
vealing a cause of great weakness on our
side. What was the result? His article
was at once wired to Canada, and from
Canada it was cabled to Spain. and the
Spanish government was so encouraged that

was prolonged several days and many lives
were uSelessly sacrificed" l tried to point

the army the moro quickly will the army do
In this connection I cannot refrain from
repeating a story which a friend informs
me was going the rounds in London during
his last visit there, with regard to an English
journalist who is pretty we'll known in this
country. If true, 1t shows how much power
a newspaper man may acquire and how Sc
rious the consequences may be if he uses it
unwisely According to the story, the jour-

IN TIE HOUSE.
Five of the Great Annual Budgets Not
Yet Disposed OF.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-The House will
have little or no time during the remaining
three weeks Of the session to devote to any
thing except appropriation bills. Yet there
are number of measures of great impor-
tance which will press for consideration
Much pressure is being brought on the COM
mittee on rules for another day for the pas-
sage of the public building bills to which
the House last week devoted two DAYS in
committee of the whole and their request
will probably be acceded to, but hardly dur
ing the coming week. The announcement
of Chairman Cannon that there was no time
to consider the steamship subsidy bill and
the Nicaragua canal bill settles the fate OF
the former. The friends of the latter are to
try flank movement by attempting to at
tach the canal bill to the sundry civil bill
now under consideration. AS it will be the
only chance the bill will have at this session
its supporters will make a desnerate fight
Time must be given for consideration of the
bill for the government of Hawaii but IT,
also, for the present, must give way to the
appropriation bills. Five of the great an
nual budgets still remain unacted upon by
the House, and as they are the most inn
portant Of the appropriation bills it will re-
Qulre practically all the remainder of the
session to put them through and consider
the conference reports upon the other ap-
preparation bills as they are brought in. This
Will undoubtedly prove to be the case if the
opposition shows a disposition to debate the
various propositions as they are brought
into the arena. And this seems altogether
likely. During the earlier part OF the ses-
sion the opposition was passive, but it
seems TO have been aroused by the debate
on the army reorganization bill and within
the past week has become quite aggressive.
The threat of an extra session appears to
hold no terrors for the Democrats and
Populists; indeed, some of them would ap-
parently welcome 1t. especially If it were
called to increase the size of the regular
army.
Tomorrow consideration of the sundry
civil bill for amendment under the five
minute rule will be resumed. Its scope has
been so enlarged and complicated by the at
tempt to place the canal bill upon il as a
rider that it is difficult to predict how many
additional days will be required to pass it,
The whole question of the receipts and ex-
penditures of the government, the def
ciencies and the possibility of a bond issue is
likely to be thoroughly ventilated AS an
unenlbarassed proposition the Nicaragua
canal bill would doubtless command a very
strong majority in the House, but with the
power of the appropriations committee and
the threats of Il bond issue thrown I'm the
balance against it and the likelihood that to
get a direct vote upon it viii require a re-
yersal of the ruling of the chair, ii is ex-
ceedingly doubtful whether 1t can carry. AS

Won BUELOW'S SPEECH
REGARDED BY THE GERMAN PRESS
AS OF GREAT IMPORTANCE.
Comments of English Correspondents
Prince Bismarck's Speech-Gen-
eraI Foreign News.

BERLIN, Feb. 12-The German newspa-
pers to-day are unanimous in the opinion
that yesterdays discussion in the Reichstag
On the Interpolation of Count Won Kanitz,
the Agrarlan leader, regarding the CONNER
cial relations between the United States and
Germany was an event Of the highest i'm
portance. All express the hope that the ex-
plicit statements of the imperial minister
for foreign affairs, Herr Won Bulow, will
put an end to the fabrication of anti
German rumors and news in the American
press"
LONDON, Feb 1S.-The Berlin corre-
spondent of the Daily News says: What
Russia is to Germany the political chess
board, the United States are to her in the
commercio-pOlitical game. Hence the effusive
amiability of Saturdays debate, which,
while it is certainly dictated by Germanys
interests, is also partly prompted by consid-
erations arising out of the Anglo-American
rapprochement. The United States are to
be shown that it is not only England who
is their friend. Herr Won Buelow has
achieved brilliant success. Baron Bon
Marschall expressed exactly the same ideas
years ago, but they met then with a far
cooler reception. 1t must have done Herr
Won BueloW good to hear his praises sung
by Prince Herbert Bismarck. That is an
incident not exactly favoring the early pub
licatiOn Of the third volume of the Bismarck
memoirs. Prince Herbert spoke very flat
teringly Of American statesmen, who, he
said, always acted on the principle or fair
play, that negotiations of whatever kind
had always led, in his fathers case, to sat
isfactory results, as his father had repeat
edly acknowledged
The Berlin correspondent OF the standard
who dwells upon the Importance of Prince
Herbert Bismarck'S speech in the Reichstag
on Saturday, says: The debate Will scarce
ly be of service to the German government.
On the contrary owing to Count Won
Kanitz's partly unbridled expressions, the
more complacent in the negotiations, despite
all exertions for the maintenance of its
rights"
The Daily News says: ''It is futile for Herr
Won Buelow to try to blame the foreigner.
1t would be more honest to admit that the
German public backed the wrong horse and.
having discovered the mistake, is naturally
and laudably anxious to set itself right with
the American people"
The Times, referring edtorially to Satur-
days debate in the Reichstag upon the in
terpelation of Count Won Kantiz. the
Agrarian leader says: "The debate was a
good omen for the establishment on a sound
basis Of the new order of things brought
into existence by the overthrow of the i'm
perial power of Spain. A reconciliation or
rapprochement between Germany and the
United States would be heartily welcomed
in England additional guarantee Of
peace and progress throughout the world"

while the man who drinks plenty of hot tea
gets safely to his journeys end The reac-
ton from the stimulation of alcoholic liquors
is as dangerous as the benumbing effect Of
strong drink and cold together upon the
mind. Many deaths occur every winter
which can be traced directly to the use or
intoxicants as a protection against storms

Another simple point to be remembered
when the weather is very severe Is the
danger of breathing through the mouth in
stead of the nose. Cold air Is warmed
somewhat in passing through the nose be-
fore ii reaches the more sensitive throat
and bronchial tubes. All authorities agree
that it is best and safest to keep the mouth
shut when out in bitter winter weather.
For that matter ii is always we'll to follow
the example of the horse. an animal that
never breathes through the mouth, however
hard pressed for air.
1t may be added that the weight of evi-
dence is overwhelming that chills may often
be warded off and serious sickness some
times averted by q little unusually deep
breathing. the lungs being filled and kept
full longer than usual at every inspiration.

entirely harmless that it ought to be more
generally tried.

The DeInxed Trains.

The cold weather of the past few days has
had its effect on the railroad traffic into
this city. The most important roads CEN
tering in Indianapolis have brought trains
into the Union Station anywhere from forty
five minutes to three hours late, and the
reason given by all of them is that the
cold weather makes it hard for the engines
TO generate enough steam to make schedule
time. The most serious trouble is not
account of local conditions, however, as the
greatest sufferers-the Pennsylvania and the
Big Four-have had their trains delayed by
the big snowdrifts in the East. No. II on
the Panhandle was two hours and forty min
utes late. while No. was an hour and
half behind schedule time. No. 81 on the
Big Four. from New York, was two hours
late on account of snow in New York State

FdrlS Letter IN LOnuOu
Mark my words, the next European war
will not be Franco English, but Franco
Spanish. dare say the excuse will be re-.
duction or nonpayment of the exterior cou-
pom. The French government has been
constantly looking out since Mcmahon re-
signed for places where they could go to
war with good chances of success. They
have done so to keep officers quiet by giv-
ing them chances of promotion, and not exs
posing them to too great dangers. Tunis,
Tonquin, AMMAN, Siam, Madagascar, Sene-
gal, the Niger have in turn, and sometimes
simultaneously, served this purpose. Col.
Achinard, when the government did not at
once enter into his belicose views in Sene-
GAL made war there against it's orders. IL
French officers have not been led into pro-
nunciamentos, 1t is because there have been
so many expeditions. The venturesome
spirits volunteer to take their chance OF
death or promotion in a wildcat expedition.
Spain will be attacked, because weak. prox-
innate and heavily in debt to French cap
italists. Other powers, l dare say. would
consent to a campaign there. If 1t led to ALL
round payment of coupons by a French
financial control Casimir Perier, as for
eign minister. threatened Portugal with
such a control when the Portuguese gdv-
ernment attempted to do French creditors
out of their lien on the tobacco monopoly.

COLD WEATHER WISDOM.
Whisky Bad Thing to Warn Up on
at such Times as This.
Cleveland Leader.

In very cold weather warm beverages
such as tea, hot lemonade and coffee, are
much safer than any alcoholic stimulants
for those who have TO be much exposed to
the rigor of the elements. Tea especially is
greatly favored as a protection against chills
and suffering from cold by the people OF
regions where the temperature is commonly
far below zero in winter. II is considered
the very first necessary of life by the trap
pers and traders of the Canadian Northwest
who have TO travel and roam the woods
when the thermometers stand twenty, thirty
or even fifty degrees below zero. The Rus
SLAMS, who have plenty OF experience with
extreme cold, agree with the employees OF
the Hudson's Bay Company.
In Russia 1t is often said that the man
