EDAM'S PASSENGERS SAVED.
Admiral, Captain and Thirty of the Crew
of the Warship Lost -Mrs. Langtry't;
Diamonds Stolen,
London, Sept. 19, -The steamer Edam
frorri New York, September 6, for Am-
sterdam, foundered off Start Point, on
the Southern coast of England, thie
morning after a collision. nIer pas-
sengers and crew were saved, Lloyd's
agent at Prawle Point wires that he
observed a steam trawler head for
Start Bay, having three larg'e ship's
boats in tow, and that the Steamer
Beresford of West Hartlepool took the
trawler in tow and headed for Ply-
mouth. A large number of people were
seen on the boats and on the deck of
the trawler. The weather was foggy.
Start Point, off which the Edam sank,
is a headland in the County of Devon,
about nine •miles southwest of Dart-
mouth. Prande Point is a few miles
westward oe Start Point, in the same
county. •
Fifty passengers and 43 members ot
the crew of the Edam have been land-
ed at Plymouth. Captain Brunson,
commander ot the wrecked vessel, says
that the Edam was struck on the port
side amidships. The vessel, he says,
had favorable weather through-
out the voyage across the
Atlantic, and no trouble of
any kind was experienced until the
chanael was reached, when a thick
fog was encountered. A sharp lookout
was kept on board the ship, and for a
time all went well, then one of the
lookouts suddenly saw through the fog
a vessel bearing down on the Edam
and gave the alarm. The signal to re-
verse the engines was quickly given,
and the order was promptly obeyed,
but it was too late to a,vold a disaster,
and almost immediately came the crash
that resulted in the foundering of the
Edam. An inspeetion soon showed that
there was no hope of saving the ves-
sel, and the erder was given for the
passengers and crew to take to the
boats.
Cardiff, Sept. 19. -The steamer Turk-
estan, which came into collision with
the Edam, has arrived here, with some
of the Edam's passengers and crew on
board.
Captain Brunson o'f the Edam states
his ship remained afloat two hours and
45 minutes after the collision. After
leaving the Edam he boarded the Turk-
estan, and found that the stem of that
vessel had been badly damaged by the
impact.

London, Sept. 19. -The Westminster
Gazette says that Mrs. Langtry has re-
tuined from Baden-Baden to Lundon
and made application to the Union
leank for restoration of jewels "rallied
at £40,000 which she deposited in the

SPANISH WARSHIP LOST
Result of a Collision in Havana Harbor
-Admiral and Captain go Down with
their Ship
Madrid, Sept. 19. -The lmparcial has a
despatch from Havana giving the fol-
lowing partic.ulars of the loss of the
warship Sanchez Barcaizetegui
Delgao Parejo was on board the
warship when she steamed out of the
harbor at midnight last night intendin
to make a circular tour and visit th
various ports of the island. As th
'warship rounded the promontory a,t th
entrance of the bay she sighted th
Menton., which was just entering th
harbor. The warship gave the re
g-ular whistle to notify the Montora
that she would keep to starboard. Th
Montora mistook the signal to mean
that the warship would go on the
pert side and she herself went to star-
board. A few minutes later came the
collision. A sailor on the warship im-
mediately before the accident happen-
ed had accidentally stopped the elec-
tric current and the lignte were ex-
tinguiehed. This added to the confus-
ion, but the crew of the warship show-
ed no signs of panic and kept man-
fully at their posts. Admiral Parejo.
with Adjutant Gaston d'Aroca, ascend-
ed the bridge, where they joined Capt.
Y. Banez. A feev moments later, how-
ever, the warship began to sink. There
was hardly time to get out the boats
before the vessel settled by the head,
plungina .bow first into the sea. Some
of the boats were carried by the suc-
tion under the sinking vessel and
some of the occupants were drowned,
while others managed to swim to the
shore or succeeded in climbing up the
sides of the Mortora. The Admiral and
Adjutant degroca got places in one
of the boats, but it was drawn under
the ship as she sank. 10'Aroca was
rescued. with one of his legs broken,
Captain Y. Banez remained at his post
on the bridge and went down with
the ship. The Mortora was badly dam-
aged by the collision, but she stood
by and gave all the a,ssistance in her
power, to the crew of the sinking
warship.
After picking up all the survivors
that could be found the Mortora pro-
ceeded Into port. As soon as the news
of the disaster reached the port officials
a. search for the bodies of the lost was
begun. The lost include Admiral Pare-
jo, Captain y Banez, Dr. Martin, the
ship's doctor, fifteen soldiers, eight sail-
ors, eight engineers and stokers and
two petty officers, besides the pueser,
clerk, second carpenter and Admiral
Parejo's servant. The funeral of Ad-
miral Parejo will take place to -mor-
row. Buildings throughout Havana,
which had been gaily decorated in hon-
or of the arrival of additional troops
from Spain, display emblems of mourn-
ing for the lost officers and men of the
Sanchez Barcaizetegui. The Imparciars
despatch says that the body of Admiral
Parejo had been horribly mutilated by
sharks.

• Gasoline Plant Struck by Lightning.
Philadelphia, Sept. 19. -The plant of
the Sunlight Oil & Gasoline Company
at 49th street and Gray's Ferry avenue
was presumably struck by lightning at
2,30 o cloak this morning, and a loud
explesion followed, which enveloped
the place in flames. The nightvrh
atc-
man, Michael Murphy, was blown some
distance by the force of the explosion,
and was found with all his clothing
burned off and with his body terribly
charred. He died a few hours later.
The plant covered six acres,upon which
Were a warehouse, cooper shop, boiler
and engine house and fifteen tanks con-
taining benzine and gasoline. The
manager of the works, Hiram LiveseY,
placed the loss at $100,009, upon which
there is but $4,000 insurance! Only
about ten men were employed. The fire
continued burning this afternoon, and
the destruction of the plant is believed
to be complete.
Strike Ended,
Marquette, Mich., Sept. 19. -The great
strike of iron ore miners is ended. The
strikers assembled to -day early In the
e afternoon and remained in contenuous
e session until 8 p. m., when the returning'
e procession bore to the Cities of Islipem-
e Ing and Negaunee the welcome news
e that the strike had oeen formally de -
e dared off. The motion to declare the
- strike off prevailed by only a narrow
majority. There is great rejoicing after
a business paralysis lasting neaidly
three months. It is no longer pos-
sible even with the advance in wages
granted to regain what has been lost
fincially by the strike, and owing to
the lateness of the season the mines
will resume work with limeted forces.
CAPT. HOWARD'S CONDUCT.
The exploits of "Captain" Howard on
the Labrador coast last month have
only been imperfectly described in
brief telegraphic despatches, and the
following advices by mail give fuller
details. His a,ctions were certainly of a
most extraordinary character. Captain
Howard is a preventive officer in the
Canadian customs, and told the people
he was also a member of the Canadian
Secret Service. He further stated that
he held special authority from toe
Dominion Government to seize all ves-
sels without coasting clearances. Arm-
ed thus with authority and a repeating
revolver, Captain Howard entered Bra -
dere Harbor on August 24 in a schooner
equipped for the fray, with 85 aimed
men drawn from his lobster canning
business, in which he has employed
about 100 men. He first demanded the
papers of the schooner Canford, and
when he got them said they were
wrong, teed her up and sent for the Do-
minion cruiser Constance to tow the
vessel to Quebec. Then he captured
the schooner Telegram, Capt. Udell,
and another vessel, both of which How-
ard claims landed goods illegally,
though the captains of the two vessels
state that they merely landed salt, oil,
fish, and so forth, for their own use, as
they had been accustomed for years
freely .to do. They protested that the
Canadian cruiser La Canadienne had
In previous years overhauled them and
never raised any objections. • Howard
said Capt. Belanger did not know his
business and he would teach him a
thing or two, He added that all ves-
sels without proper clearances would
have to go to Ilsquimaux Point, a port
of entry 300 miles away. He refused to
accept duties, bonds or securities, his
sole desire apparently being to get rid
of the Vessels. Then he tried to cap-
ture the chartered steamer Baracoa,
loading With fish at Bonne Esperance,
but she ran clear of him and escaped.
He even threatened to seize the steam..
ship Virginia Lake, a rather big job.
He also seized the Foaming Billow of
Halifax, a Canadian vessel, on the
grouhd that she had no trading license,
a thing no Canadian veesel in thee
Waters ever had. In fact Capt, leew-
ard suceeeded in terrorizing the whole
coast.

New Jersey Republicans.
Trenton, N.J., Sept. 19. -The Repub-

887 delegates. There was a spirited con-
test for the nomination for Governor,
which went to John W. Griggs of Pas-
saic, on the third ballot, seeming s.
majority over the other five candidates.
The platform re -affirms devotion to the
National Polley of the Republican par-
ty; opposition to any attempt to impose
upon this oountry a debased or depre-
ciated currency, and firm belief in the
tvisdom and beneficence of a tax upon
imports, which will afford protection to
A.merican industries and adequate rev-
enue. •
A Wisconsin Cyclone.
• Green Bay, Wis., Sept. 19. -Thirty
buildings were destroyed by a cyclone
which swept over Door County penin-
sula last night. Farmers were the prin-
cipal losers. The large Shiloh church at
Clay Banks was torn from its founda-
tions and borne through the air several
rods and dumped bottom up, a mass of
debris. The cyclone swept a path for
twenty miles through forest and farms,
levelling all in its way. Only two per-
sons are reported to have been hurt.

• CHOLERA.
A Terrible Epidemic in Japan and North
of China --17,000 Deaths From the
Disease,
San Francisco, Cal., • Sept. IA -Not-
withstanding the enaeavors of Japanese
and Chinese authorities to suppress
news concerning the cholera, the truth
has at last come to light concerning the
plague. Japan and North China, are
fairly alive with cholera germs. Sib-
erian offlcials have deciaxed Japanese
open ports infected, and from official
sources it is learned that over 17,000
people have died in Japan from the
plague since its start In the Pescadores.
In China the disease has gained a nem
foothold. Advices by the steamer Rio
Janeiro report that in Tokio the heat is
tetrific and the disease germs have been
nurtured by the climate into virulent
life. The plague is raging in Yokohama
also. In Osaka 150 new cases were re-
ported in one day. In China at Che
Foo the disease is spreading rapidly.
At Nanking much illness prevails among
the foreigners, many of whom have been
forced to leave the country.
Washington, Sept. 19. -Advices from
the United States Minister to the Ha-
waiian Islands, under date of Septem-
ber 4, state that up to that time 32
cases of cholera had been feported in
Honolulu, of which 26 were fatal. Only
one white person had died, a sailor on
the United States steamer Bennington.
No cases had been reported outside the
city and communication with the Other
islands had been prohibited. No evi-
dence of panic existed, and the people
were cordially co-operating with the
authorities in their efforts to stamp out
the disease.

Gowns for Home Wear.
In the days when all well -regulated per-
sons eschew the house and use it only as a
dormitory, the question of house gowns
seems of comparatively little importance.

What earthly interest has any woman with
enough money to take an outing in house
gowns from June until September? The

plexion on the master. The first cold day

and she is forced to spend more or less
time in the seclusion of the house? The
kindly disposed modiste answers the ques-
tion for her.
"In the first place," says Madmen°,
"there is the morning gown. That is quite
distinct from the negligee, you under-
• stand. No gentlewoman wears her negligee
outside her own boudoir. In her morning
gown she may appear at the family break-
fast table, in bhe library after breakfast -
anywhere, in fact, in the house. I maae
very few one-piece morning gowns. They
are more apt to look slovenly than the
two-piece ones. But I make the skirt to
fasten on to the bodice so that there is nO
comfort lost. The bodice I make in .the
simple, old-fashioned surplice style, which
forms a small, pretty V at the throat and
is admirably adapted to the display of a
big &len such as are to be very much worn
this year. The sleeves are loose puffs, end-
ing just below the elbow in 0 ruffle. The
skirt is plain and simple and, buttons bo-

a ribbon belt to a bodice. I use soft
Henriettas, fine cashineres, silk -warped
woolens of all sorts and old-fashioned
nun's veiling for these. As for color, red
Is very cheerful, and frequently a man is
sent on his way from the breakfast table
rejoicing because his wife has worn cheer-
ful red instead of dingy browns. The old
blues are pretty, too, and gray is always
suitable if it is not a stone or slate gray.
The wise woman never wears anything at
breakfast which is suggestive of the blues
or fits of bad temper."
"Then," said Madame, after a reflective
pause, "there are the tea gowns. Never let
any one persuade you that a real tea gown
is meant to wear at afternoon tea, unless
eon are in your own room. I am making
tea jackets by the score, but not a tea
gown. The jackets, some of them, are
made almost like blazer jackets, with a
short ripple basque and a vest of chiffon or
lace. Others are more in the Directoire
style, close -fitting and longer, with a lace
frill falling from the collar at the throat.
The materials used are silk and satin, and
later in the season velvet will come in for

ticularly well adapted to this style of gar.
inent The brighter colors are used a great
deal, and the jackets are worn over black
silk, satin or crepon skirts. They are very
effective and picturesque. By the way,
