While en-tering the harbor Saturday night dur-ing a furious gale, the American ship Elizabeth, from New York with a cargo of assorted merchandise, went on the beach ut the north end. Tho vessel was commanded by Captaiu Colcord and carried a crow of twenty-si- men. The captain's wife and two children were also on board. Of tho crew it is known tho captain and seventeen sail-ors are drowned. Details of the wreck are hard to obtain, as the place where the ship struck on tho rock is almost inaccessible. The story of the wreck as told by one of the crew is that the in I was blow-ing a heavy gale, but 1 he captain de-cided to sail in; the tug Alert was made fast to the Elizabeth, but the hawser broke and the ship drifted towards the shore. Just as the second hawser was made fast the vessel struck the rocks. The captain lowered a small bout and put his wife and children in it, and thev were taken to tho tug by the mate and two seameu. The boat then returned to the ship, anil its occupants perished with the rest of the ship's crew. Tho tug being unable to get near the ship, could only rescuo three men. Yester-day morning nothing remained of the Elizabeth. She had gone to pieces dur-ing the night. When the wreck was reported to the Fort Point crew they started for the wreck. They were being towed by a tug, when Captain Henry of the crew was washed overborn d and drowned. The life-boa- t could not get near the wreck, and returned to tho station. About midnight the life crew was taken across the bay on a tug, and started overthe mountains to Tennessee Cove, with wickets, ropes and other apparatus. No report has been re-ceived from them, and it is not known if any of tho men were rescued. Much damage has been done to ship-ping in the harbor by the furious gale. MURDER, LYNCHING AND SUICIDE.

The Report will be Submitted to the Presbyteries for their Full Consideration. CoiXMnrs, O., Feb. 23. Dr. Moore, secretary of the Presbyterian general assembly committee on revision on tho confession of faith, which held its sec-ond session at Washington February 4 to 16, furnishes the folTf;ing report: The same method will be pursued as at tho session ut Allegheny, so that the en-tire confession will be revised und given to answers of presbyteries on each chapter and section designated by them. The work dono and tentu-tivol- y adopted at Allegheny was passed in review and confirmed or changed as deemed best. The committoe thus revised chapters i to xvi. The remaining chapters taken up at these sessions and changes tentatively inado were finally adopted as the mature judgment of the committee. Changes, eliminations of additions are chiefly in chapter i, 5; chapter iii, 3, 4, 8, 6; charter iv, 1; chapter vi, 4; chapter vii, 3, 1, !5, 0; chapter viii, 3, 4, 15, 6; chapter x, 2, 3, 4; chapter xi, 1, 3; chapter xiv, 1; chapter xvi, 7; chapter xxl, 4; chap-ter xxiii, 3; chapter xxiv, 3; chapter xxv, 0; chapter xxix, 2; chapter xxx, 2. The general desire expressed by tho presbyteries in their answers to over-tures "For a most explicit statement of love of God for tbe world;" "For a suf-ficiency of atonement and free offer of salvation to all men;" "For a recogni-tion of church and duty to evangelize the world;" "For a statement of indi-vidual responsibility for salvation;" "For a fuller statement respecting per-son and work of tho holy spirit." The committee sought to meet by preparation two new chapters; one "Of Work of the Holy Spirit" to follow chapter viii. "Of Christ 'the Medi-al or." The other "Of the Universal Offer of the gospel, to follow chapter ix "Of Free Willing." The chapters meet most of the suggestions in "Answers of Presbyterios" und make many of the changes asked for in other chapters that were unnecessary. Its conclu-sions were reached with harmony mid its report will be neither of majority nor minority but of the revision com-mittee. The question of publishing its report before the time of the meeting of the next assembly which was left to the discretion of the committee, was fully considerid. It was uuanimwtiiy agreed "that xi f iio not print any"; zft of 5ur record J 1or to ibe meeting of next with the suggestion that the work the cynmittt e bo referred to the presbyti r es for their consideration, out not as an overture for final action; that the presbyteries be requested to take the report of the com-mittee at their full meeting and carefully consider it and suggest any change that they may deem desirable, and forward report of same to the sec-retary of the revision committee by the 1st of December, isiil; that the com-mittee subsequently act upon these suggestions of the jiresbyteries and make final report to the assembly of 1HU2. lllEFKIimSAFiliB Positive Evidence that La Blanche Be ceived a Stipulated Sum to ba Knocked Out, .

Dublin, Feb. 23. llealy and Kenny met with a mixed processiou at Carrick-on-Shanno- n Saturday night. A large contingent of Parnollites occupied the speakers' platform. The priests made a futile attempt to pacify the people. When tho procession of McCarthy-ite- s arrived they were assaulted with clubs and sticks. Forty policemen were unable to control the approaching factions, llealey thereupon adjourned the meeting to the chapol, where he and others spiike de-nouncing Parnell and his followers. Parnollites gathered outside and hooted and yelled. Several persous were hurt during the riot. FROMFOREIGNSUORES. Parnell Makes a Number of Speeches While on Eii Way to Roscom-mon Saturday- - LEADERS ACCEPT BRITISH GOLD. A Procession of McOarthyitei Fares Roughly at the Hands of Excited Followers of Parnell. Dcblin, Feb. 23. Parnoll made a number of speeches on his way to Saturday. The general bur-den of his remarks was that not even the Ilealeyites dared to say Gladstone's as-surances were satisfactory. The men to whom Ireland had looked in confi-dence bad now sunk low enough to ac-cept English gold in payment for their subservience to Finglish parties. An attempt was made to hold an out-door anti-Parnc- meeting at Carrick-ton- , Shannon county, Leitrini, Saturday, ' but tho Parnell sympathizers demol-ished the platform which had been erected for the speaker's accommoda-tion. In the afternoon, responding to a calling delegation, Paruull re-viewed the circumstances of the disputes in the party, couveying the idea that he had assumed his present position on finding the desti-nies of the pally confided to McCart hy a gentleman of great amiability of char-acter, but without practical acquain-tance with Ireland's wants. lie dwelt at length upon tho unsatisfac-tory nature of the Gladstonlan assurances, and declare I that after so bungling the laud question for ninety-on- e years that one-hal- f of the population was banished or starved to death und the remainder un-til the league was founded were unable to hold up their heads in the presence of a landlord or bailiff, the imperial parliament would make another pre-tended settlement and declare the Irish legislature unentitled to any power in the matter, and in the second place the imperial parliament would keep control long enough to renew the Mteen-yea- r tenancies, so that in tho first lifteen years of the Irish parliament they would have a constabulary with rilles, swords, bayonets, etc., collecting back rents fixed by the imperial parliament. In reference to the police, Parnell as-serted that tho best judges considered a force of four thousand men were more than sufficient to preserve the peaco in Ireland. Why, he asked, should 4000 men bo kept to trample upou Irish freedom and throttle Irish aspirations? They were kept because it was intend-ed to keep the land question within the jurisdiction of the imperial parliament. This was a vital, and the most vital question for Ireland now. "Gladstone, concluded Parnell, "gave me twenty-fou- r hours' notice to quit. I could not give the meanest servant less. 1 have IZ tip altornayve but to take you into my eVSconlidenjflytnd ofi'erto stand cheerfully bjl"lL' decision and your orders." Dublin, F'eb. 23. Parnell, during his speech in the town hall at Roscommon yesterday, said he did not believe the police could be got rid of as proposed by the McCarthyites. He had the assur-ance that the plan he himself proposed was very simple. "These men are armed soldiers, I sympathize with the opin-ion that it would not be proper to hand them over to us in an armed condition. Put I proposed to disarm them and then transfer them in a civilized condition to tho control of the Irish executive, re-sponsible to the Irish parliament." DRESSMAKING PARLORS ROBBED. Onljr I In Uh oil 0;wni Taken by ' Oreedy Thievee. LowaSI. Miss Sadie Thomas, who conducts a dressmaking establishment in the sec-ond story of No. 142 Main street, was made the unfortunate victim of a bur-glarious raid sometime last night. When she arrived at her parlors at 8 o'clock this morning, she was much surprised to find t bat the door opened without the formality of turning the key in the lock, which had eveu been taken from it. This was a premonition of some misfortune which at once aroused both her suspicions and fears. On entering tho rooms everything was in supreme disorder and confusion, where her departure ou Saturday nighi only neatness and good order prevailed. Drawers which had contained both fabrics uncut and finished products of the modiste's skill, were piled one on another on the floor, while everything else the room contained had been turned topsy turvey. The thieves were either married men or very choice in their selection of plunder, for they only took dresses that were finished and seasonable, leaving one very beautiful white embroidered cashmere gown which was ready for the form of tho wearer; they probably in-tend coming back for this later in the season or in time at least for the May festival. Miss Thomas stated her loss consisted of two black silk, one brown plush, a gray wool, all finished garments which awaited her customers; a black toque and black basque, one orniulo clock and two bolts of ribbon. There was left $5') worlh of silver ware and a lot of rich aud uncut fabrics, and trimmings. Everything had an appearance as if the burglars had beeu interrupted before completing their work, as it is not thought they intended leaving behind so many elegant dress patterns. The loss aggregates from $300 to $100. So far the police have no clews. THE MARQUIS OF LORNE WRITES. Ha Kldlculea the Idea that Canada Wanta to liarter Her l'olttlcal Independence, London, Feb. 23. The first of a se-ries of articles published in tho daily Graphic upon the Canadian crisis, writ-ten by the Marquis of Lome, appeared today. Among other things the mar-quis said: "The annexationist scare is a useful losson, bringing homo to our minds the fact that colonies are prac-tically independent of a nation. This is a wholesome thing for the public to be reminded of. No comparison is pos-sible between colonies aud Ireland." The marquis ridicules the idea that Canada desires to barter her political independence "for the government of stars and stripes." FLOODED ALL ALONG THE RIVER. Tha Ohio Klein One Inch an Iloar at Cincinnati. Cincinnati, Feb. 23. The outlook for the Ohio river Hook grows worse to-day. In addition to the rise at Pitts-burg, this morning's weather reports show that there is almost a certainty of additional rain in the Ohio valley within twenty-fou- r hours. Here the river continues to rise about one inch an hour. There seems to be hope in the fact that the river is falling rapidly at Wheeling and at Parkersburg and also that the headwaters of the great Kauawaba are falling. Tho effect of tho flood here, at this stage, is inconvenient, but not dis-astrous. Lower portions of Newport aud Covington are submerged, but none of the large manufacturers are in-terfered with. The water works at Portsmouth are stepped by the overflow while Parkersburg has lost her gas and water works and is in danger of a coal famine. , At 1 o'clock this afternoon the river stood at 55 feel 5 inches and was rising at the rate of one inch per hour. from up and down the river show that many towns are flooded. IN COMMERCIAL CIRCLES. Washing-ton- ' ltlrthday waa Vary Gen orally Obnerved. There was little disposition among real estate dealers to do business today and although Washington's birthday had passed nearly twenty-fou- r hours it was very generally observed in all commercial circles. Tho banks did not open at all and most of the stores either did not raise their curtains in tho morn ing. or promptly closed their doors at noon. The chamber of commerce, real es-tate and mining exchanges observed the day patriotically and did no busi-ness of any character, the officers being; nowhere visible, A few dealers in real estate 'were cither met in their offices or on tha street. Such as were so encountered were most enthusiastic in commending; the stand taken by Tub Times in ref-erence to the Deep Creek railroad. They were united in declaring that the paper had voiced the sentiments of the majority of citizens on the subject and might indulge its pride over the stand it had taken without appearing la the , least vain. t , , ' , & An Alabaster Quarry. Denver, Feb. 13. News has reached this city of one of the most remarka-ble discoveries in America of the pres-ent year. The find is an alabaster quarry, the lodge heing of great thick-ues- s and extending for miles ir, the foot hills near Canyon City.

PRINCESS FREDERICK IN PARIS. Kewipaper Reporters Hounding ller Al-most to Distraction. Pakis, Feb. 23. Empress Frederick of Germany took lunch yesterday with Baron de Tticher, Bavarian charge de affairs, where she met Whitelaw Heed, United States minister, and Lytton, British ambassador. The reporters still haunt the imperial visitor as she travels about this city, and the result is that Fmpress Frederick has resorted to var-ioi-expedients in an attempt to shake off the newspaper men hovering about the embassy. Frequently the empress nd her daughter, Princess Margaret, drive in different directions in order to create a diversion and bewilder the journalistic forces. But the latter manage to keep pretty closely on the trail of the empress in spite of her efforts to keep away from them. Yesterday evening there was a rumor circulated to the effect that two of tho ladies would be present at the Lamarnex concert. Consequently a great crowd collected in and about the vicinity of the concert hall. But the empress and her daughter did not appear. Two Germans sang Mozart and Wagner duets in German, a hazardous proceed-ing before a French public audience. After hesitating for a few moments, as if undecided whether to hiss or applaud, the audience suddenly burst out to vociferous applause. There can be no doubt but that the empress' visit to Paris is productive here of a much better feeliug toward Germany, London. F'eb. 23. A dispatch from Paris to the Times published today, says the principal motive for Empress Frederick's visit to Paris is tho settle-ment of 2,000,000 louis bequeathed to her by the Duchess Galliera. This leg-acy, according to the Times correspon-dent, the empress intends to apply to refurnishing and to the decoration of the castle of Konig-stain- , drawing heav-ily upon the French art collections in carrying out this task.

The whole town turned out this evening to attend the funeral services over tho remains of Reuben Cahoon, a young man of great popularity among the neighbors who died suddenly of la grippe at Pioche and was conveyed home by his brothers. A curious part of the sad event was that at the request of the brothers, w ho like the deceased are freethinkers, the fu-neral was conducted by a Unitarian minister, although the parents are strict mormons, the Rev. David Utter of Salt Lake City having been called to off-iciate. The attendance, though mor-mon, and embracing over 350 persons, was very attentive. Cahoon leaves a wife and several children.

CEORCE WASHINGTON. Chureh Services In Memory of tba Father of Ilia Country, The "father of his country" is not usually remembered on the natal day of his birth in church ceremony.
