SIXTY BUB! 10 AT SEA.

Cholera Breaks Out on a Chinese
Steamer with Awful Results.

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.

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.
For some cause no action was taken until
now, when the county prosecuting attor-
ney brought the case before the grand jury

TACOMA, \Vash., Aug. 27.—Edward A15
bertson, secretary and teller of the Fidel
ity Trust bank, is a defaulter and fugi-
tive. He made a clean steal of something
like $9,000 in cash. President ‘Vallacl
said: “\Vc have not the faintest clew as to

is likewise a mystery. IIe 11.15 piobablj
