ceeding s1,000,OOO each.

FRENCH SUBMARINE SUNK.
collides With Crosse Channel Steamer
and Twenty-seven Lives Are Lost.

Calais, France.-Another French
submarine, the Pluviose, with all crew
aboard, lies in thirty fathoms of
water. She was sent to the bottom
of the English channel Thursday
afternoon by the cross-channel steam
er Pas de Calais, which, crowded with
passengers bound for Dover, struck
the partly-submerged Pluviose when
about two miles from the harbor.
Twenty-seven men are missing.
Accounts differ as to the cause of
the accident. Admiral Fourier has
expressed the opinion that the sub
marine attempted to pass beneath the
steamer, while other officials think
that the Pluviose, after long dive,
came up by chance directly under the
paddle wheels.

eminent Searched Schooner
Flying Stars and Stripes.

Bluefields, Nicaragua.-A Nicaragu-
an government force from the gun
boat Venus on Wednesday boarded
and searched the American schooner
Esfuerzo, flying the stars and stripes.
The action was in defiance of a rul-
ing from Washington that the Venus
had forfeited her right of search.
Following the search the Venus and
the other Nicaraguan gunboat, San
Jacinto, were seen approaching Blue
fields bluff The American gunboats
Paducah and Dubuque were lying off
Bluefields, and 1t was expected here
that their commanders would take
prompt action. The fighting outside
Bluefelds continues without definite
results. General Lara of the Near
aguan government army, seeking a
position near the city, was repulsed
by General Estrada's artillery fire and
sustained small losses. The situation
at Rama remains unchanged. General
Mena of the insurgents Is checking

New York.-John H. DeGuelph of
Brooklyn, who claims to be son of
the late King Edward VII, of Eng
land, sent a message on Wednesday
to the upper and lower houses of

that he, John George Edward, Rex of
Great Britain and Ireland, the legiti-
mate and lawful issue of the mar
riage Of his late majesty, King Ed
ward VII, and the first princess con.
sort, was unjustly and unlawfully de-
prived "of his birthright as the first
born son of the rightful sovereign"
He also asks of parliament that the
legitimacy of any and all marriages
contracted by any descendant of
George III shall be duly recognized
and recorded in the usual manner.

But Most Of the Crew Was Lost
Fog Held Responsible for
the Terrible Accident.

Port Huron, Mich.-Families and
friends of the missing eighteen men,
bers of the crew of the steamer
Frank Goodyear, which sank off Point
Aux Barques, after being rammed
am.dships by the steamer James b.

and made no report of any survivors
aboard.
Four of the rescued members of the
crew have gone to the Goodyear's
headquarters in Cleveland, and Mrs.
Emma Bassett, the only other survi-
vor, is still in Port Huron.
The Goodyear, operated by Mitchell

ore. The Wood, owned by the Gil
christ Transportation company OF
Cleveland, was going up light. There
was little sea at the time, and fog Is
held responsible for the accident.
