had an experience that she will
not soon forget. The Kingston
Daily Telegraph of the 18th has
the following.
"1'he Ham burg American str
) Slbiria, Captain Bran beer, ar
rived here on Friday night from
New York.
1.-THE vessel encountered one of
the worst storms of the year--a
storm which ragged with unceas
ing fury for nearly thirty SIX
hours. The Slblria left New
York at two p. m. on Saturday
last and everyone on board was
prepared for what was ahead, for
shortly before leaving her pier,
the Captain had notification from
the New York Weather Bureau
that torn was brewing III the
Atlantic. So with her storm sig
nails holsted, the Ham burg Ameri
can liner put TO sea.
"The forecast of the Weather
Bureau proved correct,as exactly
six hours after leaving her pier
aud was passing Sandy Hook the
storm burst over the vessel
Every thing on deck had beer
lashed down, but when the storm
was in progress for six or sever
hours the ropes attached to six
big tanks of sulphurlc acid weigh
ing nearly one ton each, gave way
and were washed overheard
Over one hundred packages o.
cargo which were on deck were
swept away by the huge wave:
which kept the deck continually
flooded. In such a hurricane, the
vessel made small progress anC
was consequently delayed. The
ship, ably manned, behaved
splendidly. The wind blew a
the rate of over seventy miles al
hour and raised enormous waves

consequently the seas struck tn
bows of the ship. A portion 0
the rail on the forepart of the YES

the wlnches were partially wreck

still blew with great force an
did not cease until Wednesday.

says: "The attack upon President
John Mitchell. on the United Mine

where Mr.. Mitchell refused an offer
to make 100000, which he could have
earned without using any dishonorable
means, and, as some of his friends
thought, without in any manner inter-
fering with his loyalty to the cause OF
which he was the leader. The PROPOSE
ton was made 10 him, through third
party, in connection with one OF the
last coal strikes that he should on a
certain Wednesday state what action
would be taken by him on the follow
ing Saturday. The pan was to act on
what Mr.. Mitchell intended to do on

Behind this invitation is a story Of

Randall took the floor and made a
statement which was marked by an

Mitchell which he used Thursday.
President Mitchell replied to him and
demanded that either himself or Ran

In his statement President Mitchell
said:
"Thls man Randall says that my ac-
cusation that he made false statements

If anything were needed to prove his

Our Congress.

When comparisons are made between
America and continental Europe We
can find much of which to be proud.
Our growth. our wealth, our industries,
our resources, our energy, all make
hattering comparison with average Eu-'
ropean conditions. But l believe in
making such comparisons there is no
one thing of which we have the right
to be more proud than of the congress-
of the United States. Better than any
continental parliament, it represents
the people. The one legislative body Of
the world that is In any way compara-
BILE to ours is the parliament OF Great
Britain. In character, intellect, meth
DDS, dignity and in the truthfulness
with which each represents the people
the British parliament and the United
States congress stand in a class quite
apart and above any Of the parliaments
Of continental Europe.-Frank A. Van

respecting the situation at Caracas re-

Minister Bowen is to the effect that
President Castro has made a PROPOSE

claims and other issues between the
United States and Venezuela Of a ma

fact and having left his capital, he has
terminated the negotiations, at least
for the time being. The effect of this
action is to place the relations be-

the part Of the administration TO act

STRANGE CONDITIONS
IN THE HOUSE OF STAIR
Divorce Suit Discloses Skeleton in No
BILE Family of Scotland
Special Foreign Service

Special Foreign Service
EDINBURGH, Scotland, March 49,
The strange matrimonial relations
existing between the earl and the
countess of Stair were discussed in
the Edinburgh court of sessions this
week, when Lord R. Ardwall heard
counsel on the relevancy Of the action
for divorce brought by the countess.
Mr.. Blackburn, who appeared for Lord
Stair. said the ground upon which the
countess sought her divorce was that
for the last four years her husband
had been in a state of "willful and ma
Hcious desertion."
The marriage took place in 1878. In
1882 and 1888 there were differences.
and in 1892 Lord Stair determined to
give up his establishment in London
and to take his wife to Scotland.
Lady Stair declined, but Lord Stair
refused to alter his decision. He sold
ms London house, went to Scotland.
leaving his wife behind. That raised
the question of the custody Of the chill
dren, and the court of sessions decid-
ed that Lord Stair was entitled to the
custody. A deed of separation was
afterwards agreed upon, and 1T was
upon that deed that Lord Stair founded
ms defense to the action for divorce.
y DG0alI
that she remains separate only be-
cause of her husbands understandable
refusal to let her live with him. She
mad, 1t was said, consistently and con-
stantly desired to live with him. but
counsel contended that this desire was
merely platonic in character.
1t was also maintained by Lady
t;oa tnat IN 1899 the deed of separa-
tion was revoked by the fact that. she
hVed with her husband for three weeks
at Bendameer. In conclusion, Mr.. Black
burn declared that Lady Stair was not
emitted to divorce her husband for de-
sertion. That could only be where the
wne was willing to remain with her
husband. Lady Stairs position had
neen that She wanted to substitute for
the marriage contract a mere contract
of platonic partnership.
A lady companion at a certain
wage, suggested Ardwall, amid
laughter. Counsel for Lady Stair hay-
ing been heard, Lord Ardwall reserved
judgment. W
