LAZE STEAMER rOUNDEBED
Canadian Steamer Supposed to But
Gone Down Sixteen l'eesoos
Were Abroad.
Buffalo, Dec. 11. It is now certain
that the Canadian steamer Niagara.Cap
tain Henry McClory. foundered during
the severe storm of Thursday evening
last about eight miles east of Long Point,
Lake Erie, with all hands, numbering
16 persons. Tugs sent out from Port
Colbonrne and from Buffalo to search
for the missing steamer returned, bring
ing with them great quantities of wreck
age picked up near where the steamer is
supposed to have foundered. It was the
opinion of lake captains that the boat
went down in deep water about eight
miles east of , Long Point, as none of her
spars had "been found, and if she had
gone down in shallow water they would
be sticking up.
The wind was blowing a gale of about
45 miles an hour and it was snowing
heavily. Even tho largest and strongest
boats made for shelter, and it was the
opmiou of vessel men that Captain Mc
Clory attempted to turn his boat around
and run under Long Point and in doing
so encountered the fnll force of the
storm, his craic going to pieces.
Committed Crime While Drunk.
New York, Dec. 11. Walter Raffers,
who originally gave his name to the po
lice as Willis Rosscr. a student at the
Post Graduate hospital, who shot Fred
F. Slater, 22 years old, of Rah-way, N.
J., in Madison Square Garden, Satur
day night, was arraigned m police court.
A report was presented from the Belle
vue hospital house surgeon to the effect
that the Wounded man's condition was
favorable, and on the request of Raffers
counsel the prisoner was held in $1,000
bail for examination tomorrow. Raffers,
who comes from Stevenson, Ala., has
little to say about the shooting. He
was considerably under the influence of
liquor when arrested. Raffers w.is not
able to furnish bail and was locked up.
Captatu Essruger Dead.
Chicago, Deo. 11. Captain Bernard
Essroger of Chicago died, aged 65.
Ueneral Sweet said that to him moro
than any mau was due the failure ot
tbe plot to release the Confederate pris
oners of war at Chicago. Captain Ess
rogcr was one ol the six captains who
stood guard over the Catafalque of
Lincoln.
Farmer Killed Accidentally.
Johnstown, .fa., Dec 11. William
A. Foor, a farmer living near Everett,
was killed by the accidental discharge
of his shotgun wnile returning from a
hunting trip. The entire load of shot
struck him in the neck, killing him in
ttantly. He was 30 years old. He left
a widow and one child.
Labor Leader Dropped Dead.
Milwaukee, Dec. 11. John E.
Ooughliu, one of the best known labor

THE P1NAH0IAI DEBATE
Talk on the measure Scheduled to Com
mence Today lu tho Uouse Pro
bably Coror Wide Ranje.
Washington, Dec. 11. Under tho
terms of the special order adopted Fri-
dayj the general debate on the financial
bill will open today immediasely after
the reading of the journal and contmuo
flaily from noen until 5 o'clock Friday.
On Saturday the bill will be read para
graph by paragraph for amendment
undor the five minute rule. The vote
will not be token until the following
Monday. The debate will probably
cover a wide range, including a general
rethreshing of the campaign issue of
1896, and there may be some stormy in
cidents, The Republicans are arrayed solidly
for khe bill, but many of them who have
never before advocated tho gold stand
ard doubtless will have to take the floor
to explain their change of position. On
the Democratic side some of the mem
bers are reported as favoring the bill,
but thero has been no canvass made as
yet, and it remains to be seen how
many of them will join the Republicans
on this measure.
FORECAST OF THE SENATE.
Usioa Cxpeoted to Make a Speech On
Boer War.
Washington, Dec. 11. The week
does not promise to be a busy one, indi
cations being for routine business and
short sessions inside the chamber, with
much preparation for future work in
tho committee rooms. Senator Mason
probably will open the week with a
speech on his reason declaring the sym
pathy of this country with the Boers in
their war with. Great Britain. There
may be other Dnef speeches upon this
and other questions, though tbere is a
general disposition on the part of sena
tors to postpone speechmaking until
utter the holidays.
An effort likely will be made to com
plete tbe reorganization during the
present week
Tho finance committee may meet to
morrow for preliminary consideration
of 'the finance bill. The expectation
was that this bill will not be taken up
in the senate until after tho Christmas
holidays. Tho committee on foreign
relations will take up the reciprocity
treaties on Wednesday. The commit
tee on privileges and elections will con
sider the contests over senatorial seats
in a desultory way, but the real work
on these will not begin until Saturday,
when opposing counsel will be heard on
the Quay case.
REPORT ABOUT LOGAN'S DEATH.
Allesed the Major Was Shot by One ol
Men In Ills Own Command.
San Francisco, Dec. 11. According
to stories told here by soldiers who have
just returned trom tne .f nihppinos on
the transport Sheridan, John A. Logan,
Jr., may not have met his death at the
hands of Filipino sharpshooters, as re
ported. Purser George Kappitz of the
vessel declares that Logau was shot by
one of his own men, and he is supported
in his view by others of that transport's
crew.
The Major, Kappitz asserts, made
himself offensive to tho men, and this
faeling was heightened bv an incident
which occurred ono day at sea, when no
saized a soldier's pet dog and threw him
overboard. A threat was openly made
aud repeated many times that Logau
would not last after tho first battle.
You.ngstown.O., Dec. 11. Tho family
and relative; of Major Logan discredited
the story sent out from San Francisco
that he was shot by his own mon in

tee him. The physicians said Mrs. Hil
Jard's sight cannot be preserved and her
face will be badly disfigured.
