The Sunken Steamer Champion
The Report of dipt. Lockwood.
10m the Now YorY-Suu of Tuesday
Yesterday Capt. Lockwood, of the
M. DWlNGtX, Proprietor.
Saturday Morning,: : : Nov. 15,1879
The Democrats elected their candi
date for Congress in the Fourth New
York District. The election wus to fill
a vacancy caused by the death of Hon.
Mr. Smith, a Republican, who was
elected last year and died, we believe,
on the night of the election. This will
add one more to the strength of the
Democrats in the House.
Bchauged.if we know where we stand
except in the “bloody Seventh” District,
on the Independent lino and for old
Felton, popularly known as * * *
etc.—Cartersville Free Press.
TnE Free Press need not have trou
bled itself to publish the foregoing, as
every reader of that paper wascompell-
el to know that Feltonwas all it knew.
Doing for Felton and working for Fel
ton, its mission is accomplished.
The election in New York occurred
on Tuesday the 4th. Nearly two weeks
after it is declared that all the Radical
candidates are elected, except for the
office of State engineer, to which Mr
Seymour, Democrat, is elected.
The New York Herald said several
days ago that the returns from the rural
districts were kept back too long to
mean any good, but on the contrary the
Herald thought they were retained for
a fraudulent purpose.
It will be remembered that the result
in Pennsylvania where the election wsb
held the same day was known a few
hour^ after the election. Well, in Penn
sylvania they have a neater way of do
ing it. They put the fraudulent votes
in a box and count them out, henco the
Radicals on the inside know the result
at once—in fact they know it before
election day. In New York they had
to put in enough to t change the result as
it stood Tuesday night. We suppose
Mr. Seymour was allowed to hold his
place out of respect to the wishes of
his uncle, Mr. Gonkling.
Gen. Grant received a rousing wel
come at Chicago last Wednesday. He
made a speech of considerable length
for him, in which ho spoko kindly of
all sections of the country without
flaunting the bloody shirt at all. There
were over a hundred thousand people
present. Many speeches were made,
and congratulatory telegrams read. The
Daily News having invited the Govern
ors of States and prominent Southern
men to Bend in its care congratulations
on Grant's return, has received a number
of such congratulations, including one
from Hon, Alex. H. Stephens, another
from Gen. James Longstreet, and the
following from Hon. Robert Toombs:
Atlanta, Ga., Nov., 12.—M. E. Stone,
Editor: Your telegram received. I de
cline to answer, except to say, present
'my personal congratulations to Gen.
Grant on his safe arrival to his country,
lie fought for his country honorably
and won. I fought for mine and lost.
I am ready to try it over again. Death
to the Union! R. Toombs.
It is said that Gen. Toombs declares
his dispatch garbled.
Time and again have we asked Dr
Felton to publish his correspondence of
last year with Ferry and other prom!
nent Radicals, and time and again has
the Cartersville Freo Press taken up the
matter as its own, and said “we” do so
and so, and "wo” have dono so and so.
Unless we are mistaken or the Free
Press sails under false colors there is
evidently a case of mistaken or misun
derstood identity somewhere about the
Free Press office. Dr. Felton’s name
does not appear as in any way connect
ed with the paper, yet the "wo” tha 1 al
ways speaks out through the Free Press
when Felton is squeezed for an answer
responds as though th* answer was com
ing from the right quarter. It may be
that in the dim and distant past some
Buttercup in real lifo “got them babies
mixed >> an d that the editor of the Freo
PreBS is me real Congressman and Fel
ton the proper man to run a Felton pa
per. If this should bo true wo would
be glad, for it would please us much to
swap Felton as a member of Congress
for the editor of the Free Press. But,
may be “they was twins."
A crazy telegraph operator at Torch,
Ohio, at the close of a night’s debauch
on Sunday last, jumped upon a locomo
tive which was attached to four coal
hoppers, and started at the rate of
twenty-five miles an hour. Ho ran
down the road about five miles when
bo met the passenger train coming
West. Into that he ran at full speed,
wrecking both locomotives and throw
ing them, with the baggage car, off the
track. The passenger cars fortunately
kept the track, and no one was injured.
The engineer and fireman of the pas
senger train both jumped off the engine
when they wore almost together, and
escaped serious injury. The lunatic
was found lying upon liis back in the
wreok, Bomewhat injured, but not se
riously.
Charleston steamer Champion, called at
the office of the local inspectors of
steamboats and expressed his readiness
to mako his official report of tho colli
sion with the ship Lady Octavia, by
which his vessel was lost. He was told
that the district in which tho accident
happened was under the supervision of
the Philadelphia board, and that tboy
would receive his report and conduct
the investigation that must naturally
follow. Tho captain accepted tho offer
of Mr. It. MoMichael, clerk of the New
York board, who said he would draw
up tho report in proper form and for
ward it to Philadelphia.
Capt. Lockwood brought with him
Second Officer Miller, Chief Engineer
Wesley Reeve, and First Assistant En
gineer C. E. Bunce. They listened to
the Captain’s narrativo, and corrected it
in those points about which they were
better informed than he. Tho report
which all four signed is merely the offi
cial notification of the los3 of the ship.
Upon it tho Philadelphia Board of In
spectors will base their investigation.
After they place the blame for the ool-
lisiou wherever it belongs, the actions
for damages on tho side or the other
will probably bo brought. Tne owners
of tho Champion may sue the owners
of the Lady Octavia, or vice versa. The
report was as follows:
New YonK, November 10, 1879.
To tho United States Local Inspectors,
Philadelphia, Pa.:
Gentlemen—We left New York on
ThuiBday, November 0, 1879, at 5 p. m.,
bound for Charleston, 8. C., with the
sioamship Champion, stauneh, and with
everything in good condition. Proceed
ed down the bay in a thick mist of rain,
so much so that I concluded to come to
anchor, I proceeded down at a slow
rate of speed, and had my Anchors
cleared, but did not anchor. The weath
er cleared so that we saw the lights on
Staten Island leading through the
Swash channel.
We then proceeded on our voyage,
and at 10.20 p. m., Barnegat bore west.
The course then was S. 8. W. by com
pass, and we proceeded on our voyago
until 3 a. m. We then chauged our
oourse to S. S. W. half west by compass.
At that time I was talking with the
first officer, who was on watch, and at
about the same time I lay down. At
about eight or ten minutes after 3
o’clock, November 7,1 heard a man re
port a sail ahead. I jumped in the pi
lot house and stopped the ship. This
sail then bore nearly ahead, not over
50 or 100 yards distant, and proved to
be the British ship Lady Octavia. She
struck us on the starboard bow, staving
in the whole bow nearly to the foremast,
and sinking our steamer in about three
minutes. I rang to back just as she
struck us, and the engine was working
back from the moment of the collision
until the water gained on us and put
our fires out. As the time of collision
I left the pilot house and sent the first
officer, Mr. R. H. Leonard, forward to
see if the steamer was making water,
which was the last 1 saw of him. I
saw the steamer sinking so rapidly that
I called to the second officer, Mr.
Charles Miller, to go aft and clear away
tho boats. 1 found the steamer sinking
so rapidly I ordered him to cut the
boats away, and I ran in the cabin and
notified my passengers to get out as
soon ns possible, and not to stop to
dress. I then directed Mr. Miller to cut
the life raft adrift, and threw life pre
servers around the deck myself. The
steamer went down .in about fourteen
fathoms, with the Delaware lightship
bearing W. S. W. fifteen or sixteen miles,
leaving the main topmast about two
feet above water. A portion of my
passengers and crew floated away from
the wreok on lifo preservers and wreck
age. There were three boats cut away,
and a few were picked up in them.
Nine persons were picked up by the
boats from the ship Lady Octavia, and
fifteen were saved by our boats and life
raft. We were all taken aboard the
Lady Octavia. Six persons were trans
ferred to a passing vessel, and the rest
(eighteen) were landed at Philadelphia
by tho Lady Octavia, and proceeded to
New York by train.
Tho weather was clear at the time of
the collision—starlight—and the sea
was smooth. By this collision there
were some thirty lives lost, viz,, twelve
passengers and eighteen of the crew
The amount of damage to the steamer
and cargo I am unablo to give. I had
a lookout set forward in tho bow of the
ship when I left the deck.
Very respectfully,
R. W. Lockwood,
Master lato Steamship Champion.
Thirty-three souls that were on board
the Champion have not been heard from
since the collision. Their names are as

An Interesting Story.
'.Swaiusboro Herald: In Georgia wo
have a set who resemble John Kelly
atid his mob, calling themselves inde
pendents, who arc striving hard to bring
forth a tiokot in this state in 1880 when
they know there is no ohance of success.
The only hope they havo is to split the
democratic vote of tho state and leave
the field in u ccnditon to be easily cap
tured by the radicals, who are bound to
put a ticket into the field as Boon as the
democrats and independents both get
their tickets arranged. What would
be tho result ? Both democrats and in
dependents would be defeated, and that
thieving gang of radicals that were so
hard to dethrone will again take control
of the ship of stato, and the prosperity
that is now dawning will vanish before
the four winds of the earth, and that
army of vagabond carpet baggers again
march into Georgia and by the assitauce
of the independents will be bo deeply
rooted that many long years will bo re
quired to again banish them from
the state.
Profitable Stock Investments,
It is learned that the Senate commit
tee which went to Rhode Island last
summer to investigate political manage
ment in that State will have a very racy
and interesting report to submit to the
Senate. A member of the committee
says that he never dreamed of suoh cor
ruption in politics as was disclosed, and
that money was the important factor in
all the elections in Rhode Island.
Federal officials were proved to be ac
tive agents in the corrupt manipulation
of votes, and the Providence post-office
was found to be an institution as far
apart in its management from any pre-
ception of a proper civil service as are
the antipodes.
Some of the Michigan people are ex
iting themselve over what they call the
"discovery” that the whole peninsula
which contains that Statals afloat on an
underground sea, of which surrounding
lakes are the visible portions. In proof
of this extraordinary theory it is held
that unfathomable lakes abound in all
parts of Michigan witli inlets, but
without any perceptible outlet; that
strange fishes have been imported to
stock some of these lakes, and have
shortly been found in others; and that
some lakes have sprung-aleak and are
disappearing, as if the bottom had drop
ped out. Absurd theories seem to be
relished thereaway.
When Vice-President Wheeler read
the telegram which baid: “Hayes dic'd
here to-day,” he put his hands under his
coat-tails, elevated his chin, and remark
ed : “I guess I’ll run this ’ere Govern
ment for awhile now." But when the
telegram was corrected and made to
read “Hayes dined here to-day,
Wheeler sat down in a corner and re
marked, “I consider the reporter a
blasted fool who’ll go telegraphing news
all over the country every time old
Rutherford Hayes eats a piece of pie.”
There will bo found some very good
reading in the letter below, from a
Washington correspondent of tbs New
York Graphic. It sounds-very much
like the truth:
“At one of tho mootings of the Na
tional Republican Committee, at the
time the electoral bill was pending, Mr-
Chandler astonished everybody by sud
denly offering his resignation as Chair
man of the committee, stating as his
reason that it had become very apparent
to him that be was not enjoying tl e
confidence of the Presidentelect, and he
presumed Gov. Hayes would prefer to
have some other person in whom he had
full confidence to maaage his interests
before to electoral commission. Gov.
Hayes’ friands, figuratively speaking,
got down upon their kuees and sought
him to reconsider his determination,
but Chandler was inflexible. They of
fered him all that could be offered in
Hayes’ name, position, patronage—any
thing that ho could ask—if he would
only continue-to manage th9 campaign.
Finaliy, Chandler said he would with
draw his resignation if certain conditions
were complied with, and the assurances
were given very readily. They were
easy conditions, and involved no sacrl
flee upon the part of President Hayes j
or his friends. They were the most
reasonable in the world, and fairly gen
erous on Mr. Chandlor’s part. They
were honorable, legitimate in every
sense, and should have been voluntary
on the part of the Ohio men. When
these conditions were guaranteed, Mr.
Chandler withdrew his resignation and
went to work. Their fulfillment was to
have been immediate, but days passed,
months passed, Hayes was inaugurated,
Mr. Chandler was kicked out of the
Cabinet; his services were ignored, his
counsels rejected, and to the day of his
death those assurances which were sol
emnly made him by the friends of
President Hayes were never carried out.
Their fulfillment was never even begun.
Mr. Chandler felt this very keenly. I
have heard him tell the story twice,
have heard him name tho men whose
broken promises were of the most re
gretful of his long career, and his com
ments upon their dishonorable conduct
were very severe. From the time that
he was relieved of his dutieB at the In
terior Department by Secretary Schurz,
until the 12th of November, 1878, Sen
ator Chandler did not enter the White
House. It was a period of eighteen
months, and he was in Washington re
peatedly during that time, but he did
not call upon the President nor hold
any communication with him. He
would recommend no one to office, and
he would say to people who sought his
influence: ‘The President would not
notice my wish if I should utter one.
have no influence with the administra
tion-’
“On the 12th of November, 1878,
was quite astonished to see Mr. Chadler
coming out of the White House grounds,
I was not aware that he was in the city
and had not heard that his feelings to
ward the President had changed. He
Bceforo Messrs. Lawrence & Co., the
New York bankers, inaugurated the
combination system of operating in
stocks, it was often very difficult for in
experienced operators, or even old
stagers, to deal profitably by their single
handed ventures. Now the field is open
to every one for successful operations,
and capital in any amounts, from 810
to 820,000, can be used with equal pro
portionate profit. Instead of distract
ing efforts among many customers, the
orders of thousands are concentrated
into one vast pool and co-operated for
the benefit of all, dividing profits pro
rata every mouth. A prominent citizen
of San Francisco made 81,264.83 from
an investment of 8300 last month.
Other customers are doing better still.
825 pays 8125 during the month, 8200
return 81,200 or 6 percent, on thestock,
and so on as the market moves. New

for success,” and full instructions for
any one to operate profitably. All the
advantages of unlimited capital and
careful manipulation are secured by the
combination method. Stocks and bonds

Memphis Ledger: It is rumored that
there is to be no Mardi-Gras display
here next spring, and it is also current
that tho pageant, at one time intended
by the Memphi for the 10th of Febru
ary next, has been sold, and that it
paraded the streets of St. Louis a few
weeks ago under the auspices of the

New York, Nov. 13.—The Sun has
received official returns form fifty of
the sixty counties in the State. A close
comparison between these and unoffi
cial returns from the other ton counties
indicates Hoskins, (Republican) for
Lieut. Governor, has defeated Potter by
about 1,100 majority. Carr, Republi
can, for Secretary of State, is elected by
nearly the same majority. Wadsworth,
Republican, for Comptroller, will have
an increased majority over that of
Hoskins. Ward and Wendell, Repub
licans, are elected as Attorney General
and Treasurer. The majority for Hora
tio Seymour, jr., Democrat, for Engin
eer and Surveyor, will bo toward 10,-
000. The John Kelly vote has increas
ed over previous estimates, and will
reach 75,000.
New York, Nov. 13.—An Albany
special says the official returns from all
but a few counties, show Hoskins’ ma
jority to be 1,330; Carr’s to be about
two thousand, and Wendell’s about
three thousand.
Philadelphia, Nov. 13.—Mrs. Mattie
Potts, who has recently completed a
walk from Philadelphia to New Orleans
and return, attempted to commit sui
cide last night by placing her head upon
the railroad track. She was observed
in time and her suicidal purpose .frus
trated. Letters were found upon her
addressed to the New York Herald, Bal

Orleans Times, stating, among other
things, that poverty and failure to find
employment led to the act.
shook hands cordially with me as we
met at the east gate, and I expressed
some surprise at seeing him coming
from the executive mansion. He jok
ingly replied, and said:
“ ‘Come over to my house and I’ll tell
you something.’
“It was a cold, raw day, and he was
well wrapped up. We went into his
library, which was the front room of
the basement in his house on H street,
and after taking off his wraps he drew
up a chair to the fire, and looking at
mo iu'a peculiar earnest way that was
chaiacteristic of him, he said:
“ ‘You want to know, I suppose, why
I was up there at the White House. I’ll
tell you. I have been trying to stiffen
the President’s backbone.’
“He said it very slowly, aud re
peated :
“ You needn’t publish it; I’m only
telling you for your own guidanoe.
Cairo down here to Washington—(I’m
sick and wasn’t fit to come)—to stiffen
—the—President’s—backbone.’
“Did you succeed? I asked.
“Never you mind. You wait a while,
my son, and then you go up and inter
view Hayes. You ask him if he does
not think the Southern policy is ployed
out, and if he doesn’t think hanging
rebels is better than giving them offices,
Remember now,’ he continued, ‘you
not to print anything about what
say ; but I want to keep you posted,
and before many days you’ll hear some
thing drop. Hayes is a square man.’
“When did you find that out? I
asked.
“ ‘I found that out to-day. I beard
that Hayes was sick of his sentimental- nor
ism, and I came down hero to give him
a tonic. 1 didn’t come for nothing, and
now, my son, you mark these words.
Before Hayes gets done with tho Presi
dency he’ll be a blacker Republican
than I am.’”
