The Schooner Joe Rivis, Bound for
Savannah, Puts i'm at BerkeIy to
Extinguish a Blaze.

Norfolk, Va, Aug. 12.-The three
masted schooner Joe Rivis, with fish
scrap from Promised Land, Long Is
land, for Savannah, is at the wharf
of the Pocomoke Guano Company.
Berkeley, where she went to have a fire
in the cargo extinguished. The vessel
is reported to have been out % lays
and was probably becalmed with the
large fleet off Hatteras.
The fire, said to have been due to
spontaneous combustion, had been
smouldering probably a week. The
captain of the vessel concluded to
make port and by declining to hire a
tug saved a good amount Of salvage.
The smoke was first discovered in the
forward port hatch. The crew of tn"
vessel tried to extinguish h fire but
were unsuccessful so it Is said. Labor
erS at the wharf removed a portion OF
the cargo and the balance will be TAX
en- out tomorrow. Then il will be as
certained just how much damage has
been Tor the vessel.

sensational charges against this we'll
known lawyer, which are to be inves-
tigated by the bar of his section. The
judge Of the Circuit court has issued
against him a arrant to appear and
show cause why he should not be de-
barred. 1t appears hat Chase has
been acting as attorney for Harrison
Wagner, a supposed resident Of Wash
ington, D. G.. The object of these
suits, it is alleged, was not to obtain
executions, but to borrow money on
the judgments. Whether this plan
was ever successfully worked is not
known.
One of the defendants is the Fidel-
ity and Guaranty Company, of Balti-
more. whose representative is Judge
Beverly Crump, of Richmond. John
Doe unknown person) swore to hav-
ing served notice on Judge Crump at
Big Stone Gap, where it is said Judge
Crump has never been. Another of
the suits is against the Adams Ex-
press Company. All the defendants
deny any service of notice of suit.

Eight Men Buried Under goo Feet of
Mud and Water-Months Will
Elapse Before Their Bodies Are
Recovered.

Raleigh, N. c., August ia special
from Salisbury, n. c., says:
Tt is learned tonight that the flooding
of the Barringer mine, near Gold Hill,
n. G., Rowan county. in which eight
liveSwere lost, vas caused by a terrific
waterspout, of immense proportions,
such as has not been witnessed in the
state for years.
The bodies of the victims who met
instant death are still buried more than
two hundred feet under mud n wa
ter. 1t is believed h a they cannot
be taken out for several months, as it
will require that much time TO pump
the water out of the mine.
It is estimated that the damage to the
property will reach many thousands Of
dollars. No blame is attached to h
Whitney Reduction Company, owners
Of the mine, on account of the disaster.
