A oolored porter on the Union Pa- oifio was stabed by a jealous courtesan 1 last week. Fortunately the knife did cot enter far enough to produce a fatal out. A workman on the standpipe of the Stromsburg waterworks had a narrow escape from instant death the other day.

A Wahoo special says that recent de velopments in the Valparaiso failure ehow an appalling condition of affairs. It was thought at first that Scoville & Crafts were honest , and that the amount of funds appropriated by them was small. It seems that this sweet-scented pair have been for the past year sys tematically forging mortgages upon the farms of Lancaster , Seward , Butler and Baunders county farmers. In many eases the mortgagors are mythical per sons. Abstracts and everything neces sary to consummate mortgages upon property have been boldly forged. In nearly every instance the mortgagors were fictitious persons , or Scoville & Crafts executed mortgages on property , tho title of which was never in them. : ; The opening up of the Crete btanch * of the MissouriPnoifio railroad has given a wonderful impetus to business in Crete. One day last week nearly 16,000 bushels of corn were brought in by farmers in that section of the country , mostly going into 'lie hands of shippers and feeders.

Cohassett ( Mass. ) dispatch : It is he opinion of Captain M. H. Heamer , keeper of Minot's light , that he Philadelphia collier , Allentown , is it the bottom of the ocean , and lies ibout one mile northeast of the light rouse , directly- the track of naviga- ion , and that she struck on Jasen's edge. The sea had subsided this morn- ng , and Captain Beainer , whose turn it ras to take a two weeks' furlough , came shore and was relieved by his assistant. Hr. Eeamer knew nothing of the Allen- own's loss until he reached home , but le gave the following information , vhich settles any uncertainty that may lave existed in recard to her fate : At about 8:30 o'clock Tuesday morn- ng an immense amount of wreckage vas seen passing the light house % It leemed to come from the exact direc- ion of Jasen's ledge , and all of it seemed to come from no greater dis- ance than the location of that ledge. This wreckage consisted of life preserv ers , boxes , casks , cabin steps , the panel ivork of a steamer's cabin , and a steam er's topmast , which was painted black irom its peak about six feet towards its : oot. This wreckage continued to float dong during the greater part of the norning , since which time none has neen seen. No bodies were seen , and ihere is nothing above the water in the locality mentioned. Anarchists Guard Their Utterances.

VISITS TO PESIDENT-ELECT HARRISON A Jiumber of DUUnguUhed Gentlemen Pa\ \ Their Respects. Iudianapolis dispatch : The presidenl elect had a number of distinguished vie itors to-day , including Senator J. C Spoouer , of Wisconsin ; Congressmai John R. Thomas , of Illinois ; Congress man W. D. Owen , of Indiana ; Genera Beuben Williams , of Warsaw , Ind. , am Senator Allison , of Iowa. Among th other callers were 0. 0. Galo , of Texaj formerly superintendent of the Be Lino , Captain Gary , of Cleveland , wh commanded a battery in General Harri son's brigade and Editor Vaughan.o the Springfield (111. ) Journal. Tin visits of Senators Allison and Spoone bore tho appearance of having been pre arranged , as Senator Spooner came frou Washington , while Senator Allison cam from Iowa , en route 4o Washington Their appearance in the city put tb newspaper correspondents in a flutter and both distinguished gentlemen wen constantly beseiged for information but tho correspondents found then rather dry picking , and exceedingly uu communicative touching General Harri son or the cabinet probabilities. Sena tor Allison stated that he had merely stopped over en route to Washing ton _ to pay his respects to tb < president-elect and enjoy a visi with him. Senator Spooner said tha he merely dropped off to personally con gratulato General Harrison. Mr. Allisoi ieft for Washington this evening , anc Mr. Spooner for Chicago. Tho latte : expects to return to Washington to morrow evening. What significance , if any , attaches t ( their , visit can only be conjectured a this writing. The two senators callec together at General Harrison's resi dence shortly after dinner , and re mained in conversation with the presi deiit-elect an hour or more. About 4 o'clock they emerged from the resi dence , accompanied by General Harri son , and , tho day being delightful , thej all walked down town , where the gen eral remained a few moments chatting with friends , and then returned home This evening General and Mrs. Har rison and their guest , Mrs. Brown , witl : Mrs. Bubsell Harrison and Mr. and Mrs McKee , were entertained at tea by the Bev. Dr. McLeod and wife. The doc tor is pastor of tho Second Presbyteriar. church , the same church once presided over by Henry Ward Beecher. General Harrison's friends have pre vailed upon him to sit for a photograph , and several fine negatives were obtained for large-sized photographs , 18x22 in dimension. Private Secretary Halford was to-da'v in receipt of a very courteous letter oi congratulation from Private Secretary Lamont , kindly offering information respecting the routine business of the executive office. INDIANS WANT A PLEASURE TRIP. But Are Peremtorlly Denied the Privilege of Visiting Indianapolis. A delegation of Sioux chiefs , headed by Sitting Bull , astonished the Standing Rock agency headquarters by asking permission to visit Indianapolis some time this winter , or any time before President-elect Harrison's inauguration , but were peremptorily refused. They sullenly departed , and it is thought that ihej'will hold an earby council to deter mine on immediate action. Sitting Bull icted as spokesman ou this occasion , and ariefiy stated that himself and brethren md been long and carefully considering ; he Sioux reservation matter and would ike a big talk with the new Great Father aefore his going into office. Their main jbject in visiting General Harrison is to iscertain his true position in regard to ; he treaty. Chief John Grass wants to : all on Cleveland , but his brothers will lot consent to this , as they do not : aro to visit the president. It appears hat they are of the republican per- luasion. When they recently vis- ted the president all was not so igreeable as has been supposed. Sit ing Bull has been generally considered m ardent admirer of Clevelaud , but vhen tho chiefs visited him last month he president failed to invite them to line at the white house. Mr. Bull on ill his former visits was allowed this trivilege , and he feels very much slight- id. Gall is happy over Harrison's eleo- ion , while Grass steadfastly refuses to • art company with a Clevelaud cam paign hat which he wore on his return rom Washington , and in which he pre- ents a most awkward and comical ap- tearance. These chiefs are beginning o be restless at the agency , and are a ource of much annoyance. Their nu- aerous trips in the east , the change of acation and scenery , and the many al- iiriug sights of a great city , have im- iied them with a desire to be continu ity on the railroad , traveling from lace to place. This causes a great deal f jealousy among tho younger element f the Sioux , who have never been af- Drded the luxury of an eastern journey , nd it is manifest that trouble is brew- aff- A Suit Involving 300,000 Acres. Washington special : An important learing indirectly involving 300,000 icres of land in Michigan took place be- ore Secretary Vilas at the interior de- mrtruent to-day. The case involved onie 1,300 acres of swamplands claimed > y the state of Michigan upon the act of > ept. 28 , 1850 , subsequently the lands vere re-surveyed and declared not to be iwampy. They were taken from the tate and as such opened by the govern- nent to private entry. This action the tate disputes , holding that the action of he government in originally declaring he land swamp land was final. Messrs. Britton and Gray appeared or the state of Michigan. _ The railroad uen present were William Webber , iresident of the Flint & Piere Marquet oad ; T * J. O'Brien , general counsel of he Grand Bapids & Indiana ; O. M. 3arnes , of the Jackson , Lansing & Sag- nawandJ. ; H. Chandler , of Chicago , olicitor of the Minnesota railroad and nining syndicate.

KILLED BY HIS BUSINESS PARTNER. A Fatal Quarrel Jtetwren 1\ca Kansas Cll llottvttlny House Keepers. Kansas City dispatch : About 8 o'cloc last ' evening a shot was heard at 11 East Tenth Btreet , and a few second aftorwards two men came running ou to tho double stairway leading to th second story. One rushed down th back stairway and was soon lost in th darkness ; the other staggered a moment and with a groan stumbled forward am fell to the bottom of tho front stairs , corps. Amos Binglo had shot his part nerEugeno Lewis , and fled from th scene of the murder. A few moments before y o'clock ) man with bloody features and wild roll ing eyes , holding up the left hand , which showed an ugly gash between the thumb and first finger , came rushing into police headquarters and startled those present by exclaiming : "I an the man who killed Lewis. " Captaii Branhan immediately came forward , ant calling Police Surgeon Iuon , hurriec tho man into jail , where his wounds wen dressed by the surgeon , after which he was locked up. There is little doubt but what the killing was in self defense. Bingle ant Lewis were partners in a second hand store and lodging houso , but were un able to agree in their business relations , and indulged in many quarrels during the two weeks they had been associated together. Only § 40 had been invested in the business by Bingle , and he was anxious to withdraw this money and dissolve tho partnership. He had made known his desires to Mr. Lewis on sev eral different occasions , but the propo sition always terminated in a quarrel , preventing an amicable adjustment oi their business relations. Two days age ho left their place of business and went to a boarding house at 1000 McGee street to take his meals. Sunday night he came down to the house and slept with Lewis , as had been his custom fox the past two weeks. Last night he concluded to go down and get his things , and sever his connection with the establishment. Ac companied by C. W. Smith and Thomas Guard , ho went down to the house at 111 East Tenth street , and going to tho room occupied by the two , began to pack his things. While thus occupied Lewis come into the room , and a short dispute was had regarding Biugle's departure. This was followed by a scuffle , in which Bingle was pushed over the stove by Lowis , who then attacked him Avith a large butcher knife. After closing in witli each other once or twice , Bingle broke loose , and jnmped across the small apartment to the bed , grabbed a revol ver that was lying under one of the pil lows , and turning , fired at Lewis. The ball took effect in the right side , several inches below the arm , penetrating the vital parts. How Lewis managed to reach the stair way is not known , but he was found at the bottom with the knife , covered with blood at his side. Gen. Harrison's Southern Policv. The Greenville ( S. C. ) Daily Newi prints a letter recently received by iti editor from General Harrison , and pub lished by his permission. It was writter in reply to a letter urging that the south ern commercial interests would be re lieved from the obstruction caused bj doubts and fears regarding the soutlierr policy of the coming administration oi General Harrison , and asked that hi make some general assurances of his purpose to follow a conservative course towards the south. After stating that he was not ready to make any public utterances on a public question , General Harrison said : "I understand that you have yourself been satisfied with the expressions ma 'de by mo in my public utterances to visit- iner delegations during the campaign. When the surprise antt disappointment which some of your people have felt over the result has passed away , and they give some calm thought to the sit uation , I think they will be as much sur prised as I am that they should , in thought or speech , impute to me an un friendliness toward the south. The pol icies in legislation advised by the repub lican party , I believe , are wholesome for ihe whole country , and if those who , in iheir hearts , believe with us upon these juestions , would act with us , some other luestions that give you local-concern ivould settle themselves. " Railroad Workers Want Mora Pav. Deadwood special : The entire foroe sf about 200 men , employed by the Deadwood Central railroad , went ont on i strike to-day at the instigation of the [ vnights of Labor. The men have been working for § 2.25 a day and were warded by the company for $4.25 a veek. The Knights objected to this ar rangement , and contended that the com pany should pay the men $2.50 a day , ffhich is the standard rate of wages here. L'he3' were willing that the company ihonld charge the men $5'75 per week or board. The company consented to my the men § 2.50 a day , but insisted on warding them for § 6. The Deadwood Dentral men , preferring the former ichedule of labor , went back to work at 8.25 yesterday , when the Knights of Labor and Miners' union , of Lead City tnd the Central , took the matter in land at a meeting held for that purpose ast night. Having decided to interfere n behalf of the railroad men , a body of iOO miners came down and induced the ailroad company's men to quit working. Superintendent Dean , of the Deadwood Central , met the men and after a con- ultation , conceded their demands and hey went back to work. Estimates for the Postal Department.

'They aggregate $00,812,073 , as gainst$60,860,233 , the appropriation for he present fiscal year.

New York special : The unexpected arrival at this port of the United State ! steel cruiser Boston , Capt. Francis M Bamsey , caused no little surprise ii shipping and other circles , as it was generally understood at the time tha the cruiser was anchored in the harbo ] of Port-au-Prince , Hayti , looking aftei the interests of American citizens , thei ; lives and property. The Boston hat been dispatched to Port-au-Prince b ] the navy department to investigate tin seizures of the American steamship Ha tien Bepublic and the schooner Willian Jones. Upon her arrival in Port-au Prince , Captain Bamsey secured the re lease of the schooner and the paj'inen of an indemnity of $10,000 to her cap tain by the Haytien government. The Haytien Bepublic , however , was con demned by the prize court and takei charge of by the Haytien authorities , and many think the situation demand ] the Boston's continual presence there , Captain Compton , of the Haytien Be public , was ordered by the Haytior. authorities to leave his ship with his of fleers and crew , but the gallant Yankee skipper refused to do so , and continued to fly the stars and stripes from the flag staff of his steamer. When the Bostot failed from Port-au-Prince , on Novem ber 16 , the American captain , officer * and crew of-the American steamer Hay tien Bepublic , were prisoners of wai and their vessel was confiscated , at they claim , unjustly. The ship , crew and gallant captain were by the Bos ton's departure left completely at the mercy of their captors. No other man- of-war of any nation save Hayti was in port. If the utterances of Hayti's ministei to this country be accepted as indicative of the temper of his countrymen , it mav be fairly surmised that these American milors will fare badly at the hands oi their captors. Minister Preston wat seen to-day. He said : "So the Boston has returned. It was reported in the papers at the time the Boston was ordered to Port-au-Prince ; hat she would bombard the town , but rou see there was nothing in that at all. Do I think the seizure of the Haytien Republic a legal transaction ? Certainly C do. The commander of the ship had 10 right or authority to carry troops ; vhich were hostile to the regularly istablished and only recognized govern- nent , even as passengers from one blockaded port to another. " "Have you read , Mr. Minister , that japtain Compton refuses to leave his ihip and that the steamer flies the American flag ? " was asked. "Yes , I have , " was the prompt reply. 'And my government ought to haul lown that flag on board of the Haytien Republic. Yes , it ought to. " This remark about the flag is likely to : ause Haytien trouble , say politicians lere. A KrighHul Explosion. Pittsburg dispatch : "Dock" ' Hag- ; erty was unloading glycerine at Pleas- ntville , Shenango county , at noon to- lay. - He had 1,040 pounds on his wagon. t exploded by some means , and Hag- : erty was literally annihilated. Parts fhis two horses were found in the leighboring trees. A piece of the ragon was found half a mile away. Irs. Gntschaw , in a house in the vi- inity , was seriously injured by a side f it being blown in the house. The xplosion was heard at Oil City , twelve liles distant. The Bridegroom Never Came. Norwalk dispatch : Edward H. Hopper f Easton , and Miss Carrie L. Brady of jyons Plains , were to have been mar- ie < t Monday evertingat'theresidence of be bridge's parents. While prepara- ions were being made for the event the Toom's father drove to the Brady resi- ence and informed the head of the ouse that the ceremony would have to e postponed , as the son had disap peared on the day previous and could ot be found. The news was a terrible hock to Miss Brady , and for a time she ras prostrated with grief. On tho day f his disappearance younjr Hopper ap- eared to be in good spirits , and gave irections regarding the place where he ras to take his bride. The woods were borongbly searched , the river and ponda rere dragged , but all to no purpose. * A BLIZZARD ON THE ATLANTIC C0MT | Daring Men Win * Went to the Jtcieue of \j Perishing Seamen. jj ( The terriblo effect of last night's f storm , says a Boston dispatch , have been 4 every whero manifest along tho coast to- I day. Although the loss of life nlrcady 'j reported is largo , it would havo boea ,1 Btill greater but for tho bravo efforts of \ ' * Capt. Joshua James and his volunteer' f , of Hull who cred- life-saving crow , nro - * ited with saving twouty-eight persona. , from disabled vessels. ( On Saturday afternoon a largo-three- * master went broadside on the beach at i Hull. Capt. James and his men rushed ' for tho Hunt gun , breeches-buoy and lifo boat of the Massachusetts humane socioty at Stony Beach , and aftor stron- uous efforts they succeeded in bringing- i ashore tho crew of nino men from tho- j , schooner , which proved to bo tho Cox t \ and Green , from Philadelphia for Chel sea with coal. Tho vessel is now fast , breaking up. Hardly had tho band of rescuers com pleted their work at this place when an other vessel was discerned on tho rooks about eight mites further up tho beach , but further from tho shoro than the * < shore than tho other. Hurriedly rush- ' i ing their apparatus to tho most favor- ' | able location , they found that tho dis- ' j tance was top great to allow tho uso of" | j Creeches' buoy , and a surfboat was J quickly manned. Tho waves wer < / too , J tremendous , and it was only after a hard J ! and persistent strugglo that tho vessel | was reached. Thoir boat was twico • i swamped in tho attempt , but tho boat , I was at last brought under the vessel'si i | bow and the crow of eight men swung ' themselves into it. Tho return to shore was a perilous trip , tho boat filling sov- t4 eral times , but it was finally thrown on the beach among tho rocks by a huge * i wave and entirely smashed. The volun- I teer life-savers continued their patrol of the beach , and at daybreak sighted a third vessel ashoro about half a mile- northeast of Abbott. Sho could not be- renched by Creeches'buoy , and , as their surfboat had been demolished , tho tiro- ' less men started for Strawberry HilL station , four miles away , and returned , with the humane society's new boat. This boat withstood.tho hugo breakers , t and landed tho crew of seven men. Not satisfied with tho work already accomplished , Captain James and hia I band of twelve started for Atlantic hill , seven miles down tho beach , whero two- more vessels were reported asliore. Here , they were joined by Captain James , Henderson , of tho Humane society sta tion at Crescent beach , and Captain George H. Brown , of the government- station at North Scituate. Their efforts were directed to the rescue of fivo men who could bo seen clinging to tho rig- f ging of one of the vessels. Tho sea was running higher than ever known before ( at this point , and it was thought impos sible to reach tho wreck with tho surf t boat. The Hunt guns wero brought into use and two lines were almost sim ultaneously fired across her foretops by Captains Anderson and Brown. The ' men in the rigging eagerly seized tho / ; line aud a hawser was pulled aboard , but just as tho buoy was about to be sent i out the lino became fouled and tho buoy ' was rendered useless. At this critical moment three young men of Cohasset named Ansle , Antoino and Salvador , manned a small dory and at great peril attempted to clear the lines. In this I they wero unsuccessful , and the surf boat was then put out on its third per ilous journey. The waves wero enor mous , at times lifting the boat as high as the maintops of the disabled schooner , but the bravo crew never faltered and at , last reached tho vessel's stern. As quick as they wero within hailinjr distance tho nearly exhausted seamen crawled out from under the furled sail on the miz- zentop and came cautiously to the- . shroud. Capt. James threw him a lino which , he fastened around his body , jumped into the sea and was rapidly drawn into- , . the boat by strong and willing hands. A desperate attempt was made to force the surf boat forward to the foremost , but the waves would beat it back , and for nearly an hour they struggled before they succeeded in reaching and holding their desired position. Tho men in the riggins : were terribly exhausted and it was a difficult undertakinir for them to- I descend , but one after the other fonr of them , descending in safety , jumped , overboard and like the first were drawn , into the boat. It was then discovered that the fifth ; sailor in the rigging was a corpse and. his body was left in its icy resting place. < The surf boat then headed for the Bhore- and a safe landing was effected amid the ' cheers of the spectators. | When the storm struck the vessel Capt. Forbes and one seaman refused to- go aloft and they were swept overboard. . The others took to the rigging where- r - Stewart I. Broms of East Boston , being unable to withstand the cold , died early Sunday morning and was lashed to the- • mast by his companions. * Ina Drake , of Lake county , Dakota ( is 12 years old , and during the present / fall lias plowed forty acres of land with a sulky plow , working in the field alone and handling the team and plow as com- fortaWy as most young ladies can han dle a Shetland pony and phaeton.
