THB BIO FRENCH STEAMSHIP
NOT YET HEARD FROM.
SEE IS ROW SIX DATS OVERDUE.
Tha Tan ton le Arrlvae AU Right, Bat
Brings No Nws of tha Missing Vas
Ml Hope Entertained That Shn
b Slowly Kearlng too Load
ftevera Weather on tha
Atlantis Ocean.
Niw York, Feb. 11. The French
lino steamer L Gascogne from Havre
January 26 has not been sighted nor
hare any vessels which hare arrived
at various ports in this country and in
Europe brought any news of her. As
she was due to arrive here on Sunday
last she Is now six days overdue.
The hope entertained that the Gas
cogue was in company with the White
Star steamer Teutonic was dissipated
by the arrival last night of the latter
steamer, which reported that nothing
had been seen of the La Gascogne,
ber own delay having been occasioned
by head winds and high seas.
The cause of the La Gascogne's non
appearance can only be conjectured,
bnt belief is general that her machin
ery was in some way disabled and
that she 1b working for port under re
duced steam or sail. The severe
weather reported by the Teutonic is
no doubt being encountered by the
La Gascogne, but her long passage
can hardly be attributed to bad
weather alone.
The Red Star line steamer Rhyn
land from Antwerp is still out It is
now fourteen days since she left
Antwerp. No anxiety is felt, how
ever, for her safety."
The Bolivia is sixteen days out
from Gibralter; the Llandaif City
eighteen days out from Swansea, the
Manitoba fifteen days out from Lon
don, the Wittekind thirteen days out
from firemen and the Taormina six
teen days out from Hamburg, are
still to be heard from. The Cunard
liner Umbria from Liverpool and
Queenstown is due to arrive to-day,
but under the existing weather con
ditions, is not likely to reach port
until to-morrow.
MISSOURI LEGISLATURE.
Tha Home Convenes Without r Quorum
Ihe 1'rooeedlnga.
Jefferson Cur, Ma, Feb. 11. As
it usbal on Saturday the house con
vened without a quorum. Later a
quorum was obtained.
Mr. Grubb, chairman of the labor
committee, asked to have a fellow
servant law applicable to railroads,
street railroads and mines printed,
and after a short debate the motion
prevailed. The aim of those who are
opposed to a fellow-servant law is to
load the Steel bill, which applies to
railroads alone, so heavily with
amendments that no one will vote for
it
The bill prohibiting alien owner
ship of land was taken up under an
adverse committee report and placed
on the calendar.
The committee on 'onstitutlonal
amendments reported favorably a
concurrent resolution giving to
women the right of suffrage. It re
commended a constitutional amend
ment fixing the minimum school age
at five years and reported unfavorably
the concurrent resolution providing
for a removal of the state capital to
St. Louis county.
The beer inspection bill, which was
reported stolen, has been recovered,
and last night the house committee
on ways and means discussed it
Senator Mott of Su Louis appeared
in behalf of the brewers, lie said
that if the bill was passed it would
compel the brewery of Anheuser,
Busch & Co. to pay an additional
license of at least $100,000. This firm
which is in his district, brews 500,000
barrels of beer annually. The com
mittee decided to wait 'until next
Wednesday night before making its
final report
GUATEMALANS ALARMED.
Tha People on tha liorder In Terror ai
tha Keialt of War Rumor.
Comitan Mexico, Fob. 11. This
border town is full of Guatemalan
refugees, who are arriving from the
South daily by secret routes to pre
vent being pressed into army service.
They report great alarm as prevailing
among the people of the republio of
Guatemala, especially among the
frontiersmen, over the threatened
war with Mexico, and say that the
greater part of the army of 13,000
men now along the border have been
forced into service by the Guatemalan
government
TWO PRINCES TO FIGHT.
Ona Bonrbon Challenge! Another to a
Duel to Avenga Deep V rongs.
Paris, Feb. 11. The ex-Duke of
Parma-Bourbon, who lost his throne
in the Italian insurrection of 1859,and
who is the father-in-law of Prince
Ferdinand of Bulgaria, has Just been
challenged to fight a duel by his
cousin, Prince Pascal of Bourbon.
A quarrel took place between the
two princes at the funeral of the ex
king of Naples, which culminated in
Prince Pascal being denied to take
part in his brother's obsequies. He
was even expelled from the town of
Arco by the chief of police.
Kansas Flax ot Good Ouallty.
Fort Scott, Kan., Feb. 11. The flax
tow factory which was recently es
tablished here as an experiment has
developed the fact that Kansas fax
Etraw is peculiarly adapted to the
manufacture of tow and the company
is preparing to equip the industry
with weaving facilities. It is the
first of the kind in the West and its
success here has opened a market for
flax straw from fifty miles around.
The farmer gets S3 per ton for his
straw, which heretofore has largely
gone to waste. Two other factories
Attempted Warner sad Salelde aa a
Street la Man rrs nelaro.
Sa Fbacisco, Feb. ;i. A msn
whose name is supposed to be William
Holland, shot at L W. Hellmsn, pres
ident of the Nevada bank, to-day,
while the latter was walking along
California street near Van Ness ave
nue. The shot did not take effect
and the man then shot himself in the
head, inflicting a wound which will
probably be fatal.
It is understood the shooting was
caused by some grievance Holland
had against Uellman because the
Nevada bank had refused to cash
checks for him.
Holland was arrested six weeks ago
at the instance of the Nevada bank,
charged with forging the name of
William H. Wright a stock broker,
to a check which was cashed by the
Nevada bank. The officials were un
able to identify him as the payee so
the charge was dismissed.
THREE TRAINS IN A PILE.
Snow Drift Causa Wreck After Wreck
In Maryland No Death.
Washington, Feb. 11. The noon
train on the Baltimore & Ohio rail
road stopped at Beltzville, twelve
miles from this city, yesterday, be
cause of a snow drift The 3:10
train on the same line ran
into it from behind, smashing
the cars badly. While efforts were
being made to clear the track
the 3:45 train came up and ran into
the other trains, also doing great
damage. A little later the 4:10 train
came up, but was stopped by a drift
only 100 yards from the spot where
the other three trains were piled up.
But for this it would have been added
to the ruins. It is said here that no
flagmen were out
There were only thirty-five passen
gers on the trains all told and none
of them were injured. Most of them
took refuge in farm houses, but a few
came on to this city on foot They
suffered severely from the cold.
CHINA ALARMED.
The Peace Envoy Ordered to Await
Fresh Credential In Japan.
London, Feb. 11. A dispatch to the
Times from Yokohama says that Chi
na has declared her intention to tele
graph corrected credentials to her
peace envoys to Japan who were in
structed by the emperor to remain at
Nagasaki for further instructions. (
These envoys were a few days ago
received by Count Ito, president of
the Japanese council of ministers,
who found from their credentials that
they were not clothed with plenary
power to conclude peace and there
fore refused to treat with them.
They started on their return to China,
but are now waiting at Nagasaki
until they hear further from their
government It is probable that the
peace negotiations will be renewed
in March.
Thirteen People Nearly Asphyxiated.
St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 11. Two fami
lies, of a total of twelve persons, and
one Chinaman, were dangerously af
fected during last night by the break
ing of a gas pipe in the laundry run
by the Chinaman, Joe Sang, and but
for the timely discovery this morning
all would have died. As it was it re
quired hard work before the physi
cian would pro d ounce the patients
out of danger. All thirteen lived in
one building which is divided into
several sections for rental purposes.
