THIRTEEN PERSONS LOSE THEIR LIVES,
London, August 19.—The Inman line steam
er, City of Montreal, has boon destroyed by lire
at sea. The passengers were saved. The City
of Montreal left New York on August 6th for
Liverpool, commanded by Captain Land. The
news of the burning of the steamer was learn
ed uj>on arrival, at Queenstown this morning,
of the British steamer York City, which left
Baltimore, Angnst 4th for London. This
steamer rescued the pa*eenger* and crew from
the burning vessel and brought them to
Queenstown. _
THIRTEEN PERRON* PERISHED.
The destruction of tho steamer occurred on
tha lltb Inst, five days after she left New
York. A boat containing si* passengers and
seven members of the crew is missing. The
oocupante of the boat are the thirteen persons
reported as perished. She had 420 passengers
on board.
QfsdstonlansV Jctorious.
London, August 15.—An election In North-
wick division of Cheshire, on Saturday, to fill
tho vacancy caused by tho death of P. Verdin,
liberal-unioniat, resulted in another victory for
tho GlMdetonee. Tho votes stood; Brunner,
Gladstonlan, 5,112; Lord Henry Grosvener,
liberal-unionist, 3,963. Grosvener Is a son of
the duke of Westminster. In tho last election,
when the liberal-unionist candidate was suc
cessful, the vote was as follows: Verdin, 4,410;
Brunner, homo rule, 8,998.
Dublin, August 15.—The nationalists here
are jubilant over the Gladstonlan victory in
Cheshire. Thoy declare that the government
cannot proclaim tho national league in the face
of defeat, which completely change# the polit
ical situation. Elated a week ago, the con
servative Standard said that tho issuo would
be a trial of strength under peculiarly signifi-
(leant circumstances, and pointed out tho fact
that though Brunner was a largo local em
ployer, hh opponent was a member of an old
Cheshlro family, that had boon seated in tho
county for centuries,and liod special claims for
the support of every unionist. Brunner made
an address today to the electors of his district.
In the course of his remarks he said:
You have u oa victory for Mr. Gladstone and for
Ireland. The iwno lictwccn tho elnsses and the
masses ban t*cn mado absolutely clear for the first
time. The xi^iiliicniiro of this message of peace to
I relaud, it is impossible t > over rate.
Consternation Aiming Conservatives.
London, August 15.—Tho result of the
Norwich election is a crushing blow to tho
conservatives and dissidents, who wore con
fident that they would retain thoir seats. At
their clnb3 tho news was received with con
sternation. Homo rule clubs and ccutros wore
correspondingly cheerful.
Ravage* of Cholera*
London, August 15.—Eight now cases of
cholera and five deaths were reported in Malta,
yesterday. *
Komis, Angnst 15.—The cholera returns for
today arc ns follows: Naples 8,0 now cases and
3 deaths; Palermo, 7 cases and 6 deaths; Syra
cuse, 0 oases and 3 deaths; at othor places, 93
wes and 40 deaths.
Simla, August 15.—'Medical roturns show
that 70,000 persons died from cholera in tho
northwest provinces of India, during Juno and

in the morning and were thought by people,
not yet out of their houses, to ho penis or
thunder, but the *ky was cloudless in all
directions. The story then geos
that men came np to the village from tho shore
and reported that an unknown dominion
fisher-cruiser had sighted and sunk an Ameri
can fisherman, the vessel going down with
every soul on board.
Bo far as can be ascertained the vessels were
too far out from shore for any row boats to ren
der assistance, but on this point no statements
of a substantial nature are to be obtained. The
whole story Is thus disputed, as it is not to bo
believed that men would stand Idle on tho
be«
ben
the slightest effort
perishing. Coupled with the rumors,
and of the same unconfirmed character, and
the statement that there was another nameless
fisherman in the vicinity at the time, and
that after one a*i«k the cruiser gave chase to
tho other. It is impossible to say what gave
rise to the reports in the first Instance. The
Associated Press has reliable Intelligence to
the effect that gun shots wore actually beard
off Baetoucbe on the morning In question.
Whether some fisherman of the locality used
this occurrence to form the basis of this sensa
tional story for the dolectation of the vi
cannot be Judd positively, but it Is the
reasonable explanation.

ed that years or precious legislative life of the conn-

can inly end In one way. But while it is important
that tho nation's Judgment be speedy, it is more Im
portant that when it docs coiuc, it shall be unoqulv-

i under his chnrgo in the southeastern
. Of tho improvements at Pensacola
r, Fla., tie says that 80,000 cable yards of

to tho present time, $203,187. has resulted, as
to 4ho channel, in obtaining temporarily a
depth of twenty-four feet at low water over
the inner bar with a width of 120 foet. The
channel must bo dredged continuously at an
annual cost not yet ascertained.
Tho shore protection works are perishable
and must bo promptly strengthened or they
will l>o destroyed with a resulting loss of every
advsmtago hitherto gained. Owing to the
failure of the river and harbor bill, no funds
havo been available during tho present year
for dredging, and work upon shore protection
must ho suspended with probably serious in
