GOHH' THE EVENING GAZETTE 'WBECK 0I__T_HE ADEN. The British Steamer Went to Pieces on the Socotra Shore. SEVENTY PROBABLY LOST. Many Women and Children Are Among the Missing—Forty-flve Persons Were ‘ - Rescued by the Indian Govern- ment Steamer Mayo. Aden, Arabia, June 30.—The Indian government’s steamer Mayo, sent out in search of the missing steamer Aden, from Yokohama on April 28, via Colom- bo andoAden for London, 'which was last heard of when leaving Colombo on June 1 for this port, has returned here and reports that the Aden was totally lost off the island of Socotra, at the eastern exéremity of Africa, during the morning of June 9. ' The Aden carried 34 passengers from China. and Japan. The captain of the wrecked steamer, some of her officers and crew and seven white passengers were swept overboard and drowned very soon after she ran ashore. Eight lady passengers, nine children, two offié cers and a few of the Aden’s crew suc- ceeded in getting away from the wreck .in a boat, but they have not been heard of since, and little hope, owing to the bad weather which has prevailed since, is entertained of their safety. The Mayo saved 9 of the Aden’s pas- sengers, 3 of the white members of the crew and 33 of the natives who formed part of the steamer-’s crew. All theSe persons were rescued just as the Aden Was breaking up. The survivors of the wrecked steamer were brought to this port by the Mayo and are being cared for by the local authorities. In all the drowned and missing in— clude 25 passengers, 20 European offi- cers and 33 natives of the Aden’s crew. The island of Socotra is situated in the Indian ocean, 120 miles east of Cape Guardafui, the eastern extremity of Africa. It is about 70 miles in length from east to west, and its greatest breadth is about 20 miles. Socotra be- longs to Koshln, a petty state of Ara- bia, whose sultan is subsidized by the British, who also subsidize the governor of Socotra. The sultan has no direct control over the island, which has a population of about 4,000 to 5,000, most- ly Arabs, negroes and descendants of Portuguese. The climate is more tem- perate than on the adjoining continent. DEATH OF “OLD HOSS" HOBY. The Famous Actor Passes Away In New York, a Wreck of His Former Self. New York, June 30.—VVilliam F. Hoey, known for many years as Old Hoss, died at his home at 201 West One Hundred and Twenty-third street today. He had been suffering from paresis and was also partly paralyzed. His wife, who is Minnie French on the stage, and her mother were at the bed- side of the comedian when he passed away. Hoey was brought last week from Mount Clemens, Mich., where he had gone to take baths for sciatica. Paresis developed while he was there. Hoey had been popular in theatrical circles for 20 years. He started in a sketch team known as Bryant and Hoey. The team was afterward expanded into Niles, Evans, Bryant and Hoey. Niles died of consumption and Bryant died in Bloomingdale. Then Evans and Hoey' appeared in a sketch called “The Book Agent," which was so popular that Charles Hoyt expanded it .into “A Par- lor Match.” and Hoey appeared in his famous part of Old Hess, the tramp. After eight years of successful partner- ship Charles Evans assumed the man- agement of the Herald Square theater, and Hoey went into a less profitable en- terprise. Both men ,made money, but Hoey had none of his fortune left when he was brought home last week.

That is the Way Norwaik Speaks, and That is the Way ‘Norwalk. Peo- At first there was doubt. That was but natural, for people had been disap- pointed many times. But first a man in Norwalk spoke, then a woman in SOuth Norwalk, and soon from all over both places arose the chorus of praises for C. C. 0., California Catarrh Cure. And now people buy and use it in per— fect confidence that. it will do what it claims; that it will cure every form, every trace of catarrh. Read what Mrs. I. F. Williamson, 24 Spring street, South Norwalk, says: “ I got a bottle, of California Catarrh Cure at Plaisted’s” drug store, fOr my daughter Kitty, who has been troubled quite badly with ca- tarrh, and she finds that it has helped her very much. My sister has also used the medicine with most satisfac- tory results and joins me in saying that it is a fine medicine.” Catarrh in its fully developed forms is ahideous disease, involving decay, filth and actual rottenness, with most offensive odors in the very seat of the organs of taste and smell; firmly fixed there, it begins to attack the membrane lining of the passages leading to the lungs or the stomach; resulting either in consumption, or what is often called dyspepsia. It is really catarrh of the stomach, intestines, liver, kidneys and various internal passages. California Catarrh Cure will cure all forms of ca- tarrh, and will check even incipient consumption. All dealers, 50 cents, three times as much, $1. To avoid hay fever, begin to use C. C. C. now; used properly,it will entire- ly prevent the malady in its season. One-half the women invest their sav- ings~ in houses, the other half in dia- monds. MOTHERS FIND NOTHING EQUAL '10 DR. HAND’S COLIC CURE.

AN ABSURD nunos' '1‘qu In Poughkecpsle to the Effect That Cornell \Vants to Be Beaten. Poughkeepsie, N. Y, June 30.—Every day at Poughkeepsie brings forth some new rumor about the creWS, which spreads like wildfire for awhile, only to die out from lack of corroboration. There have been stories of sickness, of accidents, of changes in the boats and of dissatisfaction in the several crews galore, but today comes the most sen- sational one of the lot, that Courtney is goinglto let his friend Ward win the varsity race this week just to make the defeat of Yale and Harvard by Cornell a. more bitter pilgfo'r them to swallow. It is hard t locate the origin of this story, but t, it has been believed is shown by the groups of collegians who excitedly relate it and by the telegrams that flood the town asking for some confirmation of it. This naturally can. not be obtained, as Courtney denies it and Ellis Ward laughs when question- ed and only says ambiguously that "the best crew will win.” But never. theless Pennsylvania stock has gone up wonderfully since Saturday. Co~ lumbia’s stock, too, has risen, as sev~ eral rowing authorities who have watched the work of the “blue and white” crews the last two days have expressed some very favorable opin- ions. These reports, coming right upon those about Cornell’s being stale and liable to be shaken up, have made the outcome of both this week’s races very problematical and conseqr‘ently more interesting‘. '\ Should either Columbia or Pennsyl- vania defeat Cornell rowing affairs would be in a pretty mess indeed. BIMETALLISM ABROAD. What a British Newspaper Has Learned About Its Progress. London, June 30.—The next issue of .The National Review will contain a1". article announcing an important bi- metallic development brought about by the United States monetary, commission. consisting of Senator Edward O. Wol- cott of Colorado, ex-Vice President Ad- lai E. Stevenson of Illinois and General Charles J. Paine of Massachusetts, whc will arrive here in a few days. The commission, according to The National Review, will present to the. British gov- ernment a joint statement from France and the United States declaring ‘theii “desire to terminate the disastrous ex- periments inaugurated in 1873” and claiming our good will and active con- currence. , The National Review adds: “\Ve are able to announce that England’s reply will be that the government is Willing to reopen the India mints, to make a further substantial contribution to the rehabilitation of silver by extending its use in England, by increasing the legal tender of silver, making silver the basis of notes and empowering the Bank oi England to use its silver reserve, and that material assistance and strong moral support will be given to the ob- ject the United States and France. have in view." N0 DEBS COLONY. Collapse of the Socialist Scheme—To Work Through the New Party. Milwaukee, June 30.—Vict0r S. Ber- ger, editor of avsocialist organ here. gave out a statement on his return from a conference with Eugene V. Deb:= at Chicago. He says that the scheme to plant a socialist colony in the west has been abandoned, and to take its place there will be a small migration of unemployed men to the state oi Washingtdn. They will look for homes there the same as other settlers, and the expense of transporting them will be paid through a per capita tax of 15 cents a month on members of the So— cial Democracy, Debs’ new party. Debs will remain in the east, and he and his associates will devote themselves to the cause of socialism through this political party and the ballot. ' Jealousy Prompted Suicide.
