l Remarkable Suit for Dan

Recalled- '

 

PROVIDENCE, R. 1., Oct. 20.-—In the su-

“ preme court this morning was begun the

' tion upon a widow.

 

trial of acase which involves what was
for weeks a maritime mystery, and
which now includes a charge of imposi-

On the night of May 14, 1889, the°
steamer Nashua of the Providence and
Stonington line, while on the high sea,
south of Beaver Tail light, at the mouth
of Narragansett bay, ran into a vessel.
There was a thick fog, and Capt. Buell
of the Nashua did not see the vessel
until he was about crushing into her
side. No aid could be given the unfortu-

nate crew, for those below decks had no
chance even to roll out of their bunks,
or those ondeck to get at a small boat,
for the vessel went down like a leaden
shot.

The Nashua reported the accident, and
an effort was made the next day to find

. the wreck.

Weeks afterward the schooner Nelson
Harvey was reported overdue and aban-
doned as lost. She had sailed from Fish-
er’s Island with a consignment of brick
for a Providence firm.

A few days later two bodies were found
quite a way up Narragansett bay. One
was recognized as that of Capt. Charles
W. Parker of New Bedford, master of
the Nelson Harvey, and the other was
that of the mate of the vessel. The bode
ies of. the other five. never came to the
surface.

Mrs. Arabella Parker was made execu-
trix of her husband’s estate, and brought
suit for $30,000 damage for the loss of her
husband’s life and property.

In presenting the case to the jury to-
day, W. G. Parker of New Bedford as-
serted that, just as soon as the identity
of the lost schooner was established, an
agent of the Providence & Stonington
line went to New Bedford, and, calling
upon the widow, expressed deep sympas
thy f0: her in her afliiction.

He then asserted that the company was
in no wise responsible for the loss of the
Harvey or liable for damages for the hus-
band’s death. Still, because of sympa-
fhy, the company would donate $5000 to
18!.

Subsequently this agent called upon
her with two receipts filled out and
awaiting her signature only. She asked
why there were two receipts, and was
told that they were in duplicate, one be-
ing intended for the foreign insurance
company from whom the steamship com-
pany hoped to secure reimbursement and
the other was to be filed in the oflice of
the steamship company. Both were
signed and the $5000 “donation” was
handed over to the widow. .

Later these two receipts wereproduced.
One was for $1000, and was for the loss of!»
the husband’s life. The other was for
$4000, and was to compensate her for the
loss of her husband’s property.

Not until these receipts were produced
did thcvw,idow have any hint conveyed
to her that she had, by signing for the
“donation,” waived all her rights under
the law for indemnity for the loss of
either the husband or vessel. Proof, he
said, would be submitted that the hus-
band’s income ranged from $1200 to $2500

ayear.
Because these receipts had been sur-
reptitiously obtained, as Mr. Parker

claimed, the widow brought suit as ex-
ecutrix for $30,000 damages.

The steamship company will claim that
they made no representations in. procur-
ing the receipts and that they perpetrat-
ed no fraud.

The case will attract unusual attention
in shipping circles. Capt. John Waters,
the Newport wrecker, and Capt. Kenvon
of the life saving service are here to tea-
tify in behalf of the widow.

SEVERE PUNISHMENT.

 

Two State Prisoners Receive Additional

Sentence For Escaping. 5

' BOSTON, Oct. 20.—A further sentence of
one year today imposed upon Felix Gold-
ing and Daniel Coffey, two state prison
convicts, who escaped from that institu-
tion on July 8 last, with seven others, by
crawllng through a sewer main. The two
notorious criminals appeared before Jus-
tice Braley in the superior criminal court

for arraignment.

manifested by the Republican majority

 

- in the General Assembly, when the Sen-

ate and the House by the vote of every
Republican senator and representative

WANTED ONE FLAG.

Odd Fellows W'lll Not Parade at St. Louis
Under Foreign Colors.

ST. LOUIS, Mo., Oct. till—The Odd Fel-
lows of this city will not take any part
in the Columbian parade on Friday. This
conclusion was reach-2d at a conference of
the local officials of the order and the
parade committee yesterday. The gen-
eral committee in charge of the parade
had announced that there would be no
restriction placed on the nature of flags
or ensigns to be displayed by the organi.
zations participating. In fact, there
seemed to be a desire that the. flags of all
nations should appear. To this the, Odd
Fellows through their representative ob-
jected. They declared that they would
march under the flag of the United States
only. The parade committee refused to
rescind its action at the conference, and
the Odd Fellows finally witndrew. The
order will probably make an independent
demonstration.

[Special Correspondence.) *

New YORK. Oct. ,17.——One thing the
voters of the UnitedStates ought to un-
derstand very cledrly. That is that the
neglect of a. few people to vote at the com-
ing election may change the result and
change the entire business condition of
the country. There are ten states in the
country in which a change of from 300
to 4,000 votes would change the result in
those states. There are five states in the
country in which less than 2,000 voters
remaining at home on election day'would
change the .result. There are states in
which a. change of a few hundred votes
from one side to the other would change
the result. There are others in which a.
mere handful of voters neglecting their
duty to go to the polls would allow the
opposing party to carry the election in
those states, and perhaps change the en-
tire result of the presidential election.
‘Wliut a. Change in Administration Would

Do.

This is a. matter of such vital impor-
tance that the voters of the country can
not give it 130 much thought. A chat go
in the administration, it is conceded,
means at general charge in the policy of
this government. The chances are
ninety-nine out of 100 that if the Demo-
crats succeed in electing their president
they will by the same stroke obtain a
majority in the house and senate as well
as control of the presidential chair.
That has not happened before for over
thirty years. When the Republicans
got into power in 1860 they changed the
general policy of the government from
a. low tariff to the protective tariff. It is
not necessary in this connection to go
into the details of the wonderful pros-
perity which has followed. Everybody
conversant with the history of the
country must realize that the prosper-
ous condition of the people of the gov-
ernment of the country generally is so
patent that nobody can doubt that pros-
perity has attended “the protective
tariff” experience of the United States.
There is not a. man in the United States
who can doubt that the election of a '
Democratic president, a. Democratic
house and a Democratic senate would
mean a. reversal of the tariff conditions
under which this wonderful prosperity
has come. ' 4'- -. ~ 1.}-

Your Neglect May Changojhc Result.

Every voter of the'cbuntry‘ivho does
not want to see this splendid-condition
of our country destroyed—'a‘ condition
which every nation of the world has
recognized as one of sdperior—results=—~
ought to recognize the fact that on his
vote and‘the vote of fig? “:11 ' ‘hbor may
depend the questioiggc? c_ go in the
administration or no c ange in the ad-
ministration. In the state of Connecti-

cut in the last presidential election the?

Democratic plurality wefs 2,2104. Tptefiwi
In the state of Nevada the margin of
plurality was only 1,615'=1'0‘tes.‘ , ‘In‘ Ini"T
diana the Republican plurality was only
2,348 votes. Out of an. enormous num;
ber of votes cast in West Virginia the:
plurality was but 526 votes; In a 11mm
ber of other states the plurality was but-
a few thousand. In many of the states};
a change of 1 or 2 per cent. from one
side to the other would have changed
the result. In some of the states the
neglect of less than 1 per cent. of the
Republican voters to go to the polls
would change the result. This brings
us to a point which is very important
for every voter to remember. ‘5
Farmers and Workingmen Should Be Sure
' to Vote.

In nearly every one of the close states
the Australian ballot or something pat-
terned upon that has been adopted since
the last presidential election. The ex-
perience which has accompanied the use
of this system in the state elections has
shown in nearly every case a falling off
of the farmer vote. The farmer does
not like the Australian ballot. He looks
upon it as a. device of the city schemata
and as a troublesome, uncomfortable
method which his fathers did not use,
and which he thinks he should not be
compelled to use; the result is that it
has kept thousands and thousands of '
farmers away from the polls. Not only
this, but the workingmen do not like to
be compelled to call upon, others to help
them ut in unraveling its mysteries.

The honest farmers and the honest
workinvmen form a very large element
of the Republican party. Hence a bail-
lot system which is not acceptable to
them, and which results in many of
them staying away from' the polls,
naturally reduces the Republican vote.
The experience in all elections in which
the Australian ballot or anything like
it has been tried shows a falling OK in
the Republican vote. This is accounted
for by the fact already indicated—that
the honest farmers and workingmen of
the country do not turn out and vote un-
der this new fangled arrangement as
they did before. If the honest farmers
and honest workiugmen in the Repub-
lican party ' are not careful to-do their
full duty this time—regardless of the
fact that they do not like this new
fangled way of voting—they. are liable
towake up on the morning after the
election and ,find that their state has
gone the wrong way; that by staying:
away from the polls they have caused
that change. ' ,

A Solemn Duty of' Every Republican.,

Itis the duty of every Republican .2.

voter to begin to-day, now, and make a
study of the new voting system of his
state, and not only to study it for him-
self, but to instruct his neighbor and his
neighbor’s neighbors in it. It is also his
duty to go to the polls and vote on elec-
tion day, whether he likes this new fan-
gled way of voting or not, and also to'
see that his neighbor find his neighbor‘s

neighbors-do the same thing.

to Be a Superior;Weapon.

WASHINGTON, Oct. fad—Messrs. Jones
and Dyer, representing the Brooks Arms
and Tool Company of Portland. Me., to-
day submitted to Gen. Flagler, chief of
ordnance, amodel magazine rifle, which
is asserted to combine more useful points
than any other rz-fie yet designed for
military purposes. The strong points of
the weapon are its symmetry, simplicity,
rapidity of fire and streugm. It has the
features that. Were insisted upon by.the
Magazine R2fle board, a perfectly porsed
barrel at all times and a simple and in-
stantaneous device by which the weapon
may be used as a repeater or as a single
shot rifle. .

There are only 15 pieces in the gun and
it carries 20 cartridges in the magazme.
The Army Rifle board has already select-
ed as .the standard arm the KragJargen-

Flagler is extremely desirous to equip
the United States army not only With
the best ride, but with one of American
invention, he has authorized a full and

FIGHTING OVER LAND.

$203,000

 

A Suit in Equity Involving
Wortl’of Property.
MILWAUKEE, Wis., Oct. 23.-—-A suit in
equity involving $200,000 worth of land
and property, is on trial before Judge
J enkin‘s’ in the United States court. The
plaintiff is Corinna de,Vivaldi ,Coracy, a
resident 'of Rio de Janeiro, and the Outa-
gamie Paper Company and the Hewitt
Water Power Company of this state are
the defendants. The property involved
is-the plant of the paper company on the
Fox river and the land it covers; also
“ the water, dam and machinery, together
with many, acres of unocupigd land. - l
The plaintiff claims that all this land
Was handed down by the Indians to her
predecessors, and in turn it fell into her
. possessions. The petitidner charges that
,the defendants took possession without
authority Aug. 1, 1888. The plaintiffs
claim that the land was secured by them
and taken possession of on Nov. 6, 1886,
through‘a land grant from the govern-
ment. .

Accident on the Boston and Maine.

Bosrorv, Oct. ,20.-—The Portland night
.express train on the Boston and Maine,
western division, leaving Boston at 7.30
o’clock, broke in two last evening, just
this side of the Reading station,and then
came together again. Six cars were de-
railed, spreading across the inward and
outward tracks. All through passengers
were greatly delayed, and the suburban
trains were all late as a result. A wreck-
ing train v. as sent out from Boston, and
it was not until this morning that the
tracks were cleared.

Homes for Soldiers’ Widows.

The suggestion made during the pro-
gress of the late Grand Army encamp-
ment looking to the establishment of
homes for the widows of soldiers ap-
pears to meet with general approval in
all parts of the country. The only im-
portant difference of opinion involved
pertains to the manner in which the
funds are to be procured to establish
and maintain such institutions. The
proper sense of obligation toward those
who preserved the unity of the country
ought to suggest the propriety of car-
ing for those who have been deprived
of means of support by reason of the
great loss of life incurred.

In some of the states provision has
been made for the care of widows and
'orpha'ns of soldiers. The soldiers’ or-
phan’s home is quite a common institu-
tion, and it is the constant aim of the
management of such institutions to
place in immediate charge of the chil-
dren as many soldiers’ widows as prac-
tical. In addition to this, in many of
the states where there are soldiers’
homes, provision is made for the care
and support of the wives and widows
of soldiers. However, in addition to
these provisions there is undoubtedly a
reasonable demand for a distinctive in-

stitution devoted to the comfort of 5;..-
diers’ widows.

A fair audience greeted the presenta-
tion of the “Silver King” at the Opera
House, last evening. The play is full
of tragic interest and begins to unfold
at the first uplifting of the curtain, and
from that time to the closing scene
every note in the gamut of human emo-
tions is struck with a master hand and
elicits a thrilling response. It is a story
with a healthy and a vividly drawn
moral, which places it among the few
(l mines in these degenerate days which
. :rcrt a benificent influence on the
minds of the spectators and enlists their
holier sympathies. The Wilfred Den-
ver of Carl A. Haswin is a strikingly
powerful characterization. His elocu-
ti and acting is terrible in its intensi-
t in the conscience-haunting scenes.
It is a beautifully finished piece of act-
ing, and one that is rarely seen. He
was supported by an excellent company.

 

 

Bridgeport is the first city in the
state to be provided with an automatic
stamping machine to postmark letters
and cancel stamps. One is now being
erected at the post-office, and in a few
days will be in operation. The device
is a most ingenious one and is run rap-
idly by an electric motor. The letters
are faced up on a table as usual and
then dropped into a narrow trough one
by one. In this trough they are carried
rapidly to a governor. which allows
them in pass only. at the proper time.
As the} pass this they reach a revolving
wheel which imprints the postmark and
the long cancelling lines which for so
long were used at Boston. From this
printing wheel they pass to a revolving
threaded axle which carries them to a
long and narrow table where they fall
in bunches.

With this machine a rapid worker
can face and stamp 4,000 letters an
hour, and if the letters are faced can
easily dispose of 8,000 in an hour. In-
stances have been known where 40,000
letters have been stamped in an hour.
The machine is now in use in Boston,
Philadelphia, Washington and many

other cities.
