A sIcKENING STORY
Negro on a Fruit Steamer Killed Twelve
People.

New Orleans, July l3.--A sickening
tory of murder, with robbery as the mo-
tive. was brought to this city yesterday
by Capt. Hans Holm Of the Norwegian
fruitef, Bratten, which plies between
New Orleans and Honduras points. IT
was subsequently confirmed by the OH
GERS of the fruit steamer Rosina which
came ii last night with additional de-
tails.
The island Of Utilla, lying Of the Hon.
duras coast, was the scene Of the trag-
edy, in which twelve lives were sacri-
feed. The captain Of the little trading
schooner Olympia, which carried o crew
of four and nine passengers, including
two women and two children, left the
harbor Of Utilla on the night Of June
80.
After she had been under way less
than an hour everybody was aroused
by shot, and, rushing on deck, found
Robert aIcGill, a negro, shooting down
the men one after another After he
had killed all but one Of the men, Nc
GIL ordered the last survivor to 60 be-
low and seuttle the ship. When the
unfortunate re-appeared on deck and re-
ported. 9he negro shot him dead.
He then put the two women, Miss
Elsie Morgan and her sister, Mrs. Wall
ter Rose, in the dory with Mrs. Roses
6-weel,s- infant, and left the boat,
steering for the mainland. On the way
lie killed Mis-. Rose and her infant. He
then began shooting at Miss Morgan
and wounded her ia the arm. She jump
ed overheard and started to swim back
| to the island
He fired at her Intellectually, but his
ammunition evidently gave out, for he
promised her immunity from harm II
| She would come back to the dory. She
started back and when within an oars
length he struck her on the head with
an oar, stunning her. Believing she was
dead he rowed away towards the main,
land.
/ Miss Morgan recovered her senses and
swan back to the island, where she
was thrown on the beach by the waves
1 In an exhausted condition.
McGill was later arrested. Up to last

firmly believed that he will be tortured te

THAT PAINT MATTER
Alderman Mckenzie Makes a State
ment Concerning II.


Editor Times We would like 10
have YOU modify the statement that
appeared in your issue of yesterday re-
lating TO the city purchasing Of paint
from the firm OF Sowden & Lyon, Of
which Alderman Sowden Of Ward 2 IS
a member. II is fact as quoted by
you yesterday that no member Of the
CITY council can have any connection
with any city contract aud Of this part
Of the report all we have to say 5
that the paint was purchased before any
of the members thought Of II
The principal point We wish corrected
IS that the street commissioners did
not report that the paint was no good
for the purpose for which Il was bought,
but simply reported that the contractor,
Mr.. Crowley, said it was better adapted
for roofs than bridges, and he recon-
mended that some other paint be bought
for the bridges, aud the committee dis
tinetIy stated that they did not feel
justified in purchasing some other paint
without being duly authorized to DO so.
We therefore ask you in all Justice
to Mr.. Sowden 70 make this correction
as IN our opinion it places him as well
as the firm OF which be is a member in
false light before the public. We
would also say that we intend to use
the paint in question on one Of ths
bridges al least and test IT'S merits.
Trusting you viii see fit to pgblisl

for long. The long march was made IN

National Granite Shed at Foot
of West Street.
DAMAGED LAST NIGHT
Efficient Work by Fire Department Pre-
vented Spread Of the Flames
to the Neighboring
Buildings

The aremen made short work Of a
Ere il dangerous locality last evening
when they extinguished a blaze in the
National Granite company slant at the
foot Of West street nd just off Granite
street, with comparatively small damage
done to the property which IS owned
by Mrs. Agnes Williams. There is q
cluster Of buildings in close proximity,
and not many rods away is tie Barre
gas plant. 50 that, had tile fire been
allowed to get very much headway,
there would have been serious eonHa-
grafton.
The FIRE, the origia Of which Is vet
mystery, was discovered By II. n.
Bush, whose Office is nearby. Mr.. Bush
went to Main street to mail some let
ters, and one returning to Depot Square
saw light in the National shed, IN the
end toward Main street He thought
someone was in the building with a
torch, but as the light grew larger he
decided to investigate. A nearer view
showed him that the building was burn
ing. He caused an alarm to be rung
from Box n at Depot Square, Of sos
o'clock.
The whole department responded to
the alarm, and soon had four streams
Of water playing on the building. In
| less than half an hour the call out"
was sounded. The fire was confined to
the Office aud polishing room In the
office were a lot Of papers, etc, which
are in bad shape because Of fire and
water, while in the polishing depart
ment there was considerable valuable
machinery. This machinery, it IS
thought. was not damaged to any ex
tent The roof Of the structure was
burned and the interior, but the damage
was all in one end Of tile building. The
other part, occupied by p. j. Gordon
and the Dewey Column Cutting works,
was not reached BY the flames.
The greater part of the fire was IN
the engine room. which leads to the
belief that the fire started from the
engine Everything was In good shape
INhe the engineer left the building at
! o'clock, and Manager Frank A. Duffy
saw nothing wrong when be was IN the
place about two hours later Little inn
portance IS attached to the fact that
several small boys We're heard, after
the fire, discussing the probability of
being found out.
When seen this morning, Mrs. Will
liams. the owner, was unable TO say
what her loss viii be- The insurance
on tie property was $3.50.

ANOTHER RADICAL STAND.
Whole OF Minister Bouligan's Project
May Be Suppressed.

st. Petersburg, July 13.-- According

there has been another radical change
N tie programme for national as
semblv which will involve the suppress
sion Of the whole Of Minister Of the
Interior Bouligan's project by one based
distinctly upon class representation 2
system against which the Moscow zena-
stvo congress took stand.
This new project, It Is said, VIII pc
considered IN the council Of ministers
under the presidency Of The emperor,
reinforced BY the grand dukes and a
number Of high court officials
The emperors conversion to the class
representation project is attributed 20

Despite the popular idea here as wen
"a abroad that Russia is ruled by the
bureaucracy it is nearer the truth to
say She is ruled by a small oligrachy
of grand dukes aud about thirty great
noble families who have access to the
court, and who make the bureaucracy
their tool With class instead Of gen
eraI representation they believe they
can control not only the most Of the
nobility, who are extensive land owners
but the peasants who live on their es'
