Norwegian Steamship Lost.

Philadelphia. Pa. March 13.-News of the total loss of the Norwegian steamship F'ramnes, while bound from Philadelphia via Norfolk flor Havana and Santiago de Cuba, was brought here tonight by the steamship Admiral SeEley, from Port An tonic, Jamaica The Framnes struck Hog Steg reef, Bahama Islands, on March 2, and became a total loss.
 The Framnes left Norholk on February 26, since which time nothing had been heard from her. On March a small boat was sighted by the Schley adrift among the Bahamas and showing signals of distress. The tiny craft was from the Framnes, and was in charge of her chief officer in search of assistance. He had with him -four of the crew, and was endeavoring to reach Great Inaguag. They were picked up and taken on board the Schley and landed alt Fortune Island.
 The Framnes had on board a large and valuable cargo. The lost vessel was conn., manded by Captain Thorbyarman, and manned by a crew of twenty-eight men.

All Wore the Shamrock

London, March 13.-Ah today's drawing room at Buckingham palace held by the Princess of Wales in behalf of Queen Vic toria, a large number of lthe boquets car ried well as those on the coats of the coachnen and fooomen, contained sham rocks, which are not often seen at the palace.
 The queens recognition of the dash of the Irish soldiers. by her order to wear the shamrock on St. Patricks Day, has been noted by the fashionable florists. A syn dicate was formed day or two ago among the Covent garden market men, and three agents were sent to Ireland with dnstruc- tions to buy up as much shamrock as they could lay hands on and ship it to London.

SERIOUS FLOOD RAGING
Hundreds of Farms Are Inundated | y 4 Swollen Streams

Chicago, March 13.-The most serious flood in years is raging in the Illinois river. The Desplaines river is almost ready to leave its banks; hundreds of farms down the valley are inundated and number of canal officials in Chicago were deluged to- day with telegrams of complaint that the trouble is due to the drainage canal.
 The sudden thaw of vast quantities of snow has filled all the tributaries of the Illinois and the Desplaines rivers. At Riv erside tonight the water was within a few inches of the top of the Spllway and was rising steadily Within twenty-four hours streams have risen ten feet above normal, and rushed in torrent toward the drain- age channel.
 Chief Engineer Randolph of the drainage canal this evening, as preliminary meas ure, raised the bear trap dam at Lockport and reduced the flow through the control- ing works to 90, 100000 cubic feet a minute. This is the first time it has been found nec- essary to check the flow at the controlling works because of floods

I think that the European powers all look to this country to take the initiative. If any European nation should intervene 1t would tend to destroy the harmony of the continent.
