The wind began to blow hard on the evening of September 7, and gradually increased in force un til three o’clock the next afternoon when it was found necessary to heavt. the ship to, that she might ride easier. A couple of stay sails were set to steady the rolling steamer. The gale devel oped into a hurricane, and at 6:15 the steering chain parted and the steamer fell into the trough of the sea. be fore the hand-gear could be shipped, a tremendous sea boarded the vessel on the port side and swept everything movable from the docks. Life boats No. 1 and No. 3 were'stove into kindling wood and No. 6 was carried completely away. The doors of the smoking room and hospital were smashed, and the copper jnpes along the docks which supply steam to the donkey engines and windlasses were twisted into fan tastic shapes. The engine room sky light was broken and much water pass ed into the engine room. A quantity of water also found its way into the after saloon, but beyond wetting carpets and cushions the damage done was trifling. As soon as the hand-steering wheel was rigged up, the ship was again headed to the swell and rode out the gale in safety.

Owens hero exhibited their enthusiasm shooting off fireworks and parading. Main street was lined with old and young, celebrating the victory. Everywhere there was anxiety to know the exact result. Breckinridge men in some instances still hold out that their man was a winner and the. official count will in their opinion so declare. Noel Gaines, a prominent Breckinridge lieutenant was asked last night regarding the threats of contest, and said: “What is the uSe of a contest when we have the race won ? I honestly be lieve Breckinridge has secured the nom ination by a safe, but small majority."

The election was too hard fought and won to be stolen. The first sign of chican ery moans blood.” The people generally regard Owens as the rightful nominee and should the district committee, which has a majori ty for Breckinridge, declare thfeir”fa vorite the nominee, a split is certain. The Owens club last night placed a guard at the county clerk’s office at Frankfort where the election returns are, to sec that the Breckinridge, men made no attempt to defraud Owens out of the nomination. There was much excitement here last night. Spies have been sent to Owen and Henry counties where fraud is alleged and it is proba ble the election will we contested. The Breckinridge people say they have re duced the plura’ity of Owens to 144 votes. At the Owens headquarters his followers were very uneasy, fearing trouble in declaring their man the nom inee and threaten to throw their strength to flic republican candidate.
