BIG STEAMER rs ASHORE
Seas Are Sweeping Over Her as She
Lays Against the Rocks Close
TO Moro Castle.

New York, Jan. 22.-The following
dispatch was received this morning
from Havana: "A large steamer,
believed to be English, grounded on
the rocks close to Moro Castle at 1890
this morning while trying to enter Ha-
vana harbor She is whistling for help.
The position Of the steamer is very
dangerous. The ship appears to be
the English steamer Arcola, Of $500
tons, although 1t is impossible to make
her out accurately in the darkness. A
small lifeboat in the service of the
Havana harbor police endeavored to
approach her, but was compelled to de-
sist, owing to the heavy sea.
"A policeman who saw the steamer
approaching the harbor says she was
making the entrance successfully when
a monster wave apparently lifted her
bodily from the channel and swept her
toward the treacherous rocks. Large
seas followed one another, forcing the
vessel to the shore, and before she
could recover herself she struck. Mon
ster waves are now sweeping over the
entire ship, and although she can be
seen in the darkness by thousands OF
people from the shore it appears to be
Impossible to send out help at this
timQs

Governor Deueen Urges Action
Regarding Waterways Z.
MESSAGE 10 LEGISLATURE
Declares That the Time 10 Ripe to-
Decisive Steps In the Lakes to- H.
1te Gulf Project.

Springfield, ILL.,, Oct. Ex-Governor
Deneen, In his message to the state
legislature, which met in special ses-
sion during Sthe day, urged that some
decisive action be taken in legisla'
ton regarding waterways. The time
was ripe for action, he said, and what
the legislature may do or fail to do
at this time was certain materially to
advance tor- retard the movement TOR
waterway developments.
1.-THE several states," he said,
(which are interested in the Lakes
to the Gulf deep waterways, look to
Illinois to take the lead. In federal
councils it seems to be- expected that
Illinois will contribute III some degree
in proportion to it's special paramount
advantage. It seems probable that the
policy will soon be formally estab-
lished that states and localities en-
joying exceptional advantage shall
contribute in a material way:
In view of our position, both ply
steal arid political, it devolves upon
Illinois to define her division Of the
great water route upon tthe largest
scale clf@depth practicable sand to pro-
vide for such work and such control
thereof cas will disarm criticism and
satisfy 1.-THE country that she has per-
formed her just proportion: With such
legislation believe we can expect
every assistance desired frsm the gen
eral government"
The governor urged the passage OF
a new primary election law-one
avoiding the imposition Of even the
slightest limitation upon the power of
the people freely and directly to ex-
press their views and to have their
views control in the nomination OF
candidates..
