THE CAPTAIN an) THE FACT, Re Did Not Report the Scourge to the Singapore Authorities, the Passcn- ' gers Were Allowed to Land and ‘ the Disease Has Broken Out. SINGAPORE, Aug. 27,—The steamer Nam- chow sailed from this port with 800 Chi- nese coolies for the Penang market. The officers were Chinese with the exception oi half a dozen Europeans. While at sea cholera broke out among‘ the Chinese The sick crowded in the cabins, where a Presbyterian minister and one lady pas- senger had taken refuge. After a terrible hurricane the cholera continued to spread and deaths became very numerous. At first each victim was cast into the sea with a. bar of pig iron in the sack. Soon, how- . ever, the dead were mostly thrown over- board without ceremony. The death roll grew alarming, and nc less than sixty bodies were thrown intc the sea. The supercurgo had supreme con- trol, and insisted on heaving overboard all efiects of the dead. Under threats the captain, upon arrival at Singapore, re- ported only six deaths to the harb01 master—three from influenza and three from “want of opium and general debil- ity.” Many passengers were landed, and, no quarantine being declared, proceeded to Penang with the rest of the infected cargo and crew. In four days nine cases of cholera developed in Singapore, all traced to the steamer N amchow. On the steamer’s voyage back from Pen tang, after landing 200 coolies there, the ' first European victim, the third engineer, -'an Englishman, succumbed to the terrible disease. When the Namchow arrived at Singapore the health oflicer was on the lookout and sent the vessel into quaran tine.. When the v cssel is released the cap tain and supercar 0'0 will be arrested and plaCed on trial in Singapore. Great liiitain Swept by a. Cyclone.

Drank Poisoned Altar Wine. ROME, Aug. 27.—The Popolo Romano publishes a sensational dispatch from Pal: ermo which says that Don Giuseppe la Rosa, private chaplain to the countess oi Mazzarino, 'while , celebrating mass in _ the _, presence of the family, suddenly fell: tc the floor in violent convulsions, his limbs writhing and froth foaming upon his lips. He was speedily removed to his private apartments, but before medical aid could be summoned he died in fearful agony. The same dispatch says that an investi gation revealed the fact that the chaplain had been poisoned with corrosive subli- mate, which had been put in the sacra- mental wine scrved at the mass. The police of Palermo are making strenuous efforts to disco1cr the perpetrator of the shocking crime. Guarding the Czar. COPENHAGEN, Aug. 27.—The czar is sur- rounded with more restrict-ions than on ~ previous visits to Denmark. It is known to the Russian police that many of the exiled Jews swore vengeance against the czar in person after they had got safely beyond the frontier, and that these threats were not passing expressions of anger There is no place where the czar expose: himself as freely as in Denmark, and there has undoubtedly been some apprehension that his enemies would take advantage of this fact. At any rate, since the czar’s ar- rival the police have been active in protect ing the royal and imperial party from too near popular contact, and the guards at the palace are doubled. Morocco’s Sultan’s New Pastime. TANGIERS, Aug. 27.—The elephant pre sented by ,Queen Victoria to the sultan oi Morocco is being utilized by that potcn. tate at Fez in trampling the life out of the unfortunates taken captive in the receni rebellion. The sultan is highly pleased with this new mode of crushing his one mics out of existence, and has a new 101 brought on every day. They are laid in a row and the elephant is made step on them. The strange animal has struck terror into the Moors, who never saw an elephant before, both on» account of its great size and the interesting use to which it is. being put by the sultan. One step is said to be quite enough if applied in tht right place. Somewhat of a hIormon. NAPOLEON, 0., Aug. 27.—-Residing nea) here is Michael Cramer and three wives. They live on a $50,000 farm, and three houses are used by the three families with one head. Cramer brought his Second wife to the farm in 1879 and placed her in a cozy house he had erected for her. Wife No. 1 offered no objection. He was or. rested at the time and tried for bigarny, but escaped on a technicality. In 1881 Cramer brought his third wife to the farm.
