The said Nay MoInnis Is only a

not been paid, he acted upon the idea
that he had not lost his title to the
property, little mule, that was his
OOylsh pct, hAu insoooo VI eAh y

into his possession and afterwards
sold it to his uncle. all of which was
done openly.

her son, all OF which facts we hope
will appeal to your sense Of mercy,

ATIMELY RESCUE.
Crew of Steamer Ea Taken off As
Craft Was Breaking Up.

Wilmington N. c., March 1S.-A
special to the Star tonight, from More
head City says the United States reve-
nue. cutter Algonquin, stationed at this
port, had just arrived there with Capt.
Garay and crew of q men from the
Spanish steamship Ea, 1894 tons, of
Bilboa.
The Ea sailed from Fernandina, Fla,
March 13, for New York, with cargo
of $500 barrels of rosin and $500 tons Of
phosphate. When off Cape Lookout
shoals, March Is, at $50 A. M. she went
aground. High seas and brisk south
east to northeast winds prevented as
sstance of the life saving crew. The
steamer broke in two, this morning,
and is total loss with her cargo.
|, BY a combination of the efforts of the
life saving station and the revenue
cutter the crew was taken at the last
minute from off the bridge of the ves-
sci, after having remained without food
and drink since Saturday.

The Republican steering committee of
the Senate decided. Tuesday, to give the
first place in the order of business in the
Senate, after disposing of the pending
business, to the oleomargarine bill and to
allow that to be followed by the Chinese

the question of giving the Nicaragua ca

decided not to act on that question mas

RUNNING MORE SMOOTHLY.
The Little Friction Existing at Boston
Being Overcome.

Boston, March 1S.-Matters have
been running more smoothly, today, at
the various freight houses and steam
ship docks than at any time since the
great strike was formally declared off.
The strikers are gradually getting back
into their old places and many of those
who have thus far not been so fortu-
nate will undoubtedly secure their
former positions in a very short time.
Probably not more than 800 or 400 out
of the 10000 men who originally went
on strike are at present out in the cold
and there is good reason for believing
that they will be provided for eventual
ly.
Negotiations for the reinstatement
of those who had not already been
taken back have been in progress, to-
day, and while they have not resulted
in a manner perfectly satisfactory to
the respective unions concessions have
been made by the different companies
involved which have greatly lessened
the bitterness that had previously been
expressed against the leaders and
given the reason to believe that all
grievances will soon be adjusted.

THE CORONATION
The Preparations for the Event Are Of
Stupendous Character.

London, March 1S.-Every depart
ment of the Kings household is busily
engaged in the stupendous task of pre-
pairing for the coronation ceremonies.
SO very long is the list of the foreign
princes and ambassadors who will be
present that the court officials are at
their wits end to decide how to dispose
of His Majesty's guests. Every avail
able room in buckingham palace and
the other royal residences is already
pre-empted and the lord chamberlain
is gladly awaiting himself of offers of
many of the finest residences in Lon
don The Belgrava and buckingham
palace hotels have been engaged in
their entirety, four houses in Grosvenor
square have been taken. and in addi-
ton the lord chamberlain has thank
fully accepted the proffer of Dorches-
ter house, Chesterfield house, Harcourt
house and Wimburne house.
The Maharajah of Jeypoor, one of the
many Indian notables coming to the
coronation, today, chartered an Anchor
Line steamer to convey himself and his
suite to England.

versation He Overheard.

New York, March 1s.-The hearing in
the case of Florence Burns, accused of
the murder of Walter S. Brooks was con-
tinued today, before Justice Mayo.

sion of the hearing that Florence Burns

NO EVIDENCE
Introduced by Wilcox in Defence,
Claiming No Case Shown.

Elizabeth City, N. c., March 1S.-The
state, this forenoon, rested its case in
the trial of James Wilcox, charged with
the murder of Miss Nellie Cropsey. The
defence announced that it would intro
duce no evidence and by so doing
gained the advantage of making the
opening and closing arguments. II. w.
Mcmillan, opening for the defence, said
that the state had produced no evidence
to show that the defendant had done
any wrong. nor had it been proved that
the dead girl had been killed by any
one. The doctors, he said, contradicted
themselves and disagreed with noted
authorities on medical Jurisprudence.
r. w. Turner, for the state, said the
state would contend that the girl was
killed by a murderer and that there
was no motive for suicide; that James
Wilcox was the assassin and that he
went to the Cropsey house prepared to
kill her.
Former District Attorney w. J.
Lcary made the second speech for the
defence and followed the line of argu-
ment laid down by Mcmillan.

out troubles on its line between Wells
ford and Hoyt. and at o'clock tonight,
the Boston and Montreal trains due last
night and today and which were stalled,
reached the city, the line being again in
working order.
The freshet caused heavy damage at the
Lepreaux river in the southern part OF
the province. The highway bridge was
carried away, today, but the Shore Line
railway bridge stood firm. The gates of
]. A. Gregorys mill dam broke and half
a million feet of logs owned by Mr.. Greg
DRY were carried to sea. 1t is still rain
ing heavily here.
Reports from the headwaters u the St.
John river down to Woodstock, at s
o'clock tonight. show that the heavy
rain did not extend that far. The river,
however, is rising but there is no ice
running except at Aroostook, where no
damage is reported. The ice, however.
along the river is breaking near the
shores and a run is feared except cold
weather comes.
A roadbed weakened by the deluge of
the past two days caused an accident on
the Intercolonial near PetitcOdiac, this
evening. The postal, baggage and second
class cars left the rails but no one was
hurt.

The correspondence of Maine people
with Congress is generally large. al
though it is not so large as that of West

the West, where there are numerous

President John Mitchell presiding.
The failure of the operators to NEE.
the officials of the Miners Union was
the principal topic of discussion among
the delegates. Many of them are insis-
tent in their demand for recognition of
the union, but the impression prevails
that if other concessions are made by the
operators the matter of recognition will
be permitted to rest for the present.

Federation held brief consultation with
President Mitchell and left shortly after

ed that the consultation related to the
