st. Johns, N. f., Jan. 14.-The fol-
lowing comprises all the details Of the
wreck in st. Maryrs bay that could be
obtained up to midnight:
The ship is a two-masted steamer Of
nearly 5000 TINS, and probably car
ried a crew ct sixty, with possibly
some passengers. She went ashore
before daybreak on Thursday morn
ing, striking a ledge at the foot of the
cliff, where escape was hopeless. The
crew launched the boats, but probably
during the panic some we're crushed
against her sides, others being
swamped, all their occupants appar-
emily perishing. The ship was seen to
be on fire by residents six miles away.
Attracted to the eoene they found the
after part OF. the wreck blazing, fierce
~ and the fore part under water.
Kerosene in the cargo helped the
blaze. At that time only three men
were left on board. Two were on the
bridge and one was in the rigging.
Those on the bridge were safe until
after 2 p. M, when they were washed

being carried away. The survivor
soon after left the rigging, swan to the
rocks and twice endeavored to get Z
footing. Failing in this he made hjl

drowning.

New York, Jan. 14.-Kid Mccoy got
the decision over Joe Choynski in a
bout which lasted three rounds at the
Broadway Athletic club last night.
| Choynski would have had the fight in
the second round were it not for an
accident in the timc-aeeping. He had
foored the Kid four times, but the
timekeeper pulled the bell as Mccoy
was being counted for the limit of ten
seconds and this saved the kid from
| absolute defeat. Choynski's seconds
protested vigorously, but Referee
johnny White, while knowing the
| round was short by many seconds,
stood by the official time and ordered
the men to resume fighting when time
was called for the third. Choynski
outpointed and outmaneuvered all Of
| McCoy's clever ring movements. Nc
Coy having escaped defeat in the Sec
ond, was again lucky in the third, as
the blow with which he sent Choynskt
down and out was delivered almost
two seconds after the bell had rang
for the completion Of the third round.
There was q great deal Of noise in the
hall at the time the gong sounded and
it is believed neither man heard the
clang of the gong. In the northeast
ern part Of the building there was a
tun.ult caused by n of the specta-
tors dropping dead. The man was
very much excited during the bout,
and expressed himself freely as to Nc
Coy's being out before the bell rang.
He slid from his seat dead as the bell
sounded for the beginning OF the. third
round.
Col. Mike Padden, timekeeper for
Mccoy, said afterward that the round
was clipped by forty seconds; that NC
Coy was groggy and practically out
when the gong rang. Choynsky. while
feeling rather sore, said. he had no
fault to find with the referee, and in
a conversation with the latter, exon
Grated White from all blame. II had
him licked good and sure" said Joe,
land had the timekeeper acted right
1 had him counted out. However, 1,
am satisfied nothing was done by eth
er the referee or the official time
keeper with the intention of doing me
a wrong. 1t was an unfortunate
thing that time should have been mis-
calculated, as I had won the fight
cleverly."
After the fight Mccoy and Choynski
signed articles Of agreement for an
other bout to take place at the Broad
way Athletic club on Feb. 20.

with stocks of goods, excepting such
al were carried into the streets by cit

the barber shop Of Charles Robinson,
a small wooden building, and in three
hours the entire block, from street to

greater, as the fire apparatus was out
Of repair and could not be used.
Prompt q action by the citizens in,

Washington, Jan. IA. The house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce ordered a favorable report
upon the Hepburn bill for the con-
strrction Of the Nicaraguan canal.
The bill is practically the same one re-
ported by this committee in the last
congress. There was some discussion
about the ACCESSIBILITY of delaying &C
ton on the bill until the isthmian
canal commission reported, but this
was finally regarded as unnecessary,
and all the members except Mr..
Fletcher Of Minnesota voted to report
the bill favorably. The latter said his
silence should not be construed as op-
position to the measure, but merely as
a reservation Of his right to support or
oppose it after further consideration.
