THE WAYCROSS HERALD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 26, 1893. STORM INJEW YORK. The Wind Blew a Gale and Torrents FelL A WRECK IN NEW JERSEY. four of a fthlp'n Crew Wew Drowned \ulng a Storm anti Much Dam- ac» U Reported All Along * the Coast of Jersey. New York, Aug. 20.—A cyclonic storm struck this city just tafore mid night. The wind blew a gale and the rain fell in torrents. The storm was by far the most severe experienced in this city this summer. There was no thunder and no lightning, and there was not the brief, heavy fall of rain, characteristic of August storms in this region. Instead of this, after a day of threats, manifested in an overcast sky, an occa sional light shower and an atmosphere sultry to a painful degree, there came outbreak that startled those who were on the streets. A gentle breeze liegan to relieve the sultriness jnst before 11 o’clock. Within 10 minutes it had increased to a violence that was calculated to frighten the timid. It whistled around every corner: il caught every light object, a hat, an um brella or a stray newspaper, and whisked it off. Rain came soon after the wind, and it was not a shower, but a deluge. The high wind carried the water through the air so that its volume was apparently greatly in excess of the actual fall. It was thriven in sheets over the pavements, and pedestrians had a hard time of it. Four tlven 1/wt. Asbury Park, N. J„ Aug. S3.—'The two-masted fishing schooner, Mary F. Kelley of New York, Captain Chris Grat- tin of Brooklyn, was wrecked here at a. m. Four of the crew of 11 men were drowned. The others were rescued by Captain Edwards of the United States life saving station, at Deal Beach, and the volunteer crew of hotel guests. The bodies of the drowned men have not yet been recovered. The drowned men were the captain, mate, cook and a fisherman. There has been considerable damage done by the storm along the en tire New Jersey coast. THE FiVE MINUTES RULE.

China, a letter sta ting that United States Consul William Bowman, who left that city a short time ago for the United States, carried with him a message from Viceroy Li Hung Chang to President Cleveland. The gen tleman who sen«Is the information does not tell how lie obtained a copy of the message, lmt vouches for its authenticity. It is as follows: Report of an interview between the Vic eroy, Li Hung Chang, and United States Consul Bowman, heul June 29. 1893. The Viceroy IJ Hung Chang, request! ITALY IS_SATISFIED. France Has Shown a Proper Spirit of Fairness. HER APOLOGY IS ACCEPTED. The Italian* Are Still Mad Though, and Other Indignities Have Been Of fered the French Official Residents in Italy. Consul Bowman return United States to call upon President Cleveland and state to him: First—That Viceroy Li Hung Chang ap: preciates the good intentions of the presi dent and secretary of state and thanks the United States. Second—That Viceroy feels keenly .the unfriendly nature and injustice of the Geary law. Third—That China will take no action thereon until the next session of the United States congress, in the hope that the Geary law will be modified or repealed. Fourth—That if the next congress de cides to enforce the law, China will at once retaliate; friendly relations between the two countries wfll be broken off and laws will be enacted looking toward the expul sion of all Americans from China. Fifth—The meantime instructions have been issued to all Chinese officials to take especial care to protect all American citi- ** ‘ in Chi ‘ Roue, Aug. 25.—The popular ferment arising from the Aigues-Mortes affair shows no sign of subsidence.

May or Harrison’s paper, confirms the report which has lieen printed in nearly all of the Chicago papers to the effect that the mayor is soon to take unto himself a bride. It says that some time in Sep tember he will we«l Miss Annie Howard, daughter of a wealthy citizen of New: Orleans who lost his life* about eight years ago. The prospective bride is be tween 22 and 27 years old, and is a very intimate friend of Mrs. Carter H. Harri son, Jr., and acted as godmother for Carter H. Harrison IH, the grandson of the mayor. Washington, Aug. 25.—'The five min ute debate in the house on the Wilson bill began with a speech by Mr. Vaughn, of Indiana who spoke for rejieal as to the interest of bimetallism. Mr. Somers, of Wisconsin, favored bi metallism, but would not vote for uncon ditional repeal. Mr. Johnson, of North Dakota, spoke for silver. Mr. Pickier, of Sonth Dakota, asked unanimous consent to change the voting order so as to take a vote Monday on the amendment confining free coinage to to the American product. This was objected to by Mr. Wilson, in charge of the administration bill. Mr. Pickier then tried to arrange for a vote on the American product tree coinage proposition after the Wilson bill hail been passed, but again objection was made. He then proceeded to criticise President Cleveland as being under English influ ence. Lucas, of South Dakota, and Mr. Hart man of Montana, spoke for free coinage; the latter intimating that his people wouldnot remain protectionists if the party failed to observe the bimetalic plank. The honse joint resolntiou as to, town sites in the Cherokee outlet was reported in the senate and an attempt was made to have it passed but objection was made and it was placed on the calendar. A question of precedence between Mr. Stewart, of Nevada, and Mr. Peffer. of Kansas, as to which was entitled to the floor, was decided in favor of Mr. Stewart, who then offered to yield his Se£K-JK*£*SBSS! s..™nrs™is the offer, but said that lie would lie very mncli pleased if he could proceed now. “Laughter.” The vice-president, how ever. took Mr. Stewart at his word and recognized Mr. Peffer. Mr. Peffer tnerenpon proceeded toad- dress the senate on the silver question. He requested that lie should have a pa tient and attentive hearing—such as he had given to other senators—as he repre- .sented at least 1.500.000 voters who be lieved jnst as he did. city the agitation is spreading in the provinces. In Milazzo, on the north coast of the island of Sicily, a mob paraded the streets and acted in a most disorderly manner. Finally the leaders of the ri oters proposed that an attack be made upon the French consulate, and the pro posal was greeted with shouts of appro val. Arming themselves with stones and other missiles the mob marched to the consulate and smashed every window in the bnilding. The escutcheon of Franc* over the doorway was tom down and taken possession of by the mob. An at tempt was then made to bum the consu late bnilding, but the police somewhat tardily arrived and drove the rioters off. Some of the officers espied the cutcheon and recaptured it. Tlris attack , is likely to further complicate the trouble, i There was a renewal of the rioting at Genoa, during which an omnibus was totally wrecked. The agitation in Ge noa, though nominally directed against the French, is said to be actually the work of anarchists, who are ever ready to make riotous demonstrations. Troops have lieen sent to Genoa to assist the au- j thorities there to prevent a recurrence of j the rioting. The Italians Satisfied. According to a semi-official announce- i ment. “Admiral Brin, minister of for eign affairs, has instructed Sig.

Consents to Iowa's Democratic Gorerni a Itenomlnatio Des Moines, Aug. 25.—The Demo cratic .state convention nominated Gov ernor Boies by acclamation and Lieuten ant Governor Bestow on the first ballot. The governor was unable to resist the demand that he lead the Democratic party in Iowa for the third time. He wrote a letter two weeks ago in which he withdrew his name absolutely. The pressure brought to bear upon him when the convention assembled was so great, that he was forced to yield and his name went before the convention, to meet with an enthusiastic and unanimous en dorsement. The convention adopted a platform which unqualifiedly endorsed the admin istration of President Cleveland; reiter ated their devotion to the canse of tariff reform as advocated by the National Democratic platform; charged the “pres ent unfortunate financial stringency’” to the Republican mle, the McKinley tariff and the Sherman law. Congress is urged to give speedy relief in tariff legislation, and to repeal without waiting the Sherman silver purchase act of 1890, and hold to the useof both metals as a currency; asking such legislation ay will secure a sound bimetalic currency which will be acceptable upon an inter national basis. In regard to the question of Prohibi tion the platform says: And as a partial reparation for the After Break sasl To purify, vitalize and enrich the blood, and give nerve, bodily and digestive strength, take Hood’s Sarsaparilla.
