The British Ship Victoria Struck by the
Ram of a Companion During tho Naval
Maneuvers Officers and Crew Go Down
With her and Hundreds are Drowned
Great Ekcitenient in London Over th
Catastrophes
Hundreds Were Drowned;
fcoxno.v, June 24. Advices from Tri
poli, Syria, report a frightful occur
rence during the maneuvers of the
British Mediterranean squadron. The
battleship Campcrdown ran her ram
into the battleship Victoria, on tho
starboard side, forward of the turret
.
' tcaHng a great hdle, from wliieh she
sank sd quickly that it was" impossible
for most cf those on board to escape,
and more than -100 of the officers and
men went down with her. Among the
lost is Vice Admiral Sir George Tryon,
K. C. B., commander-in-chief of the
Mediterranean station.
j The Victoria lies bottom upward in
eighteen fathoms of water. The Cam
perdown is seriously damaged.
1 Bear Admiral Markhain telegraphs
I that twenty-one officers of the Victoria
i were drowned and 23j men saved.
I The Victoria was a twin-screw bat
tleship of 10,470 tons, 1 1 000-horse pow
er and mounted fifteen guns. The ves-
1 feel carried 71S officers and men.
J The water came in so f itst that it wis
I impossible td close the collision bulk
heads and the" great tdpwcight Caused
, the vessel td turn dver while the men
were trj'ing to shut them.
j The hews of the accident created the
greatest excitement, not only in official
circles, but among the friends and rela-
i tives of the drowned men. The crowd
gathered around the admiralty offices
1 was so great, seeking information, that
it took a squad of police to restrain
them.
Gladstone, in announcing the calam
ity to thd house of coniirions, paid tt
high tribute- to the gallantry 61 tin
officers and men. He said that in all
there were 718 souls on board of whom,
it appeared, 430 were lost,
i Admiral Tryon was a famous naval
officer, having been in the service since
1853 and held many Important posts.
, A dispatch received at 2 o'clock this
morning from Bej'root sajs that the
collision occurred at. 5 o'clock yestcr-
' day afternoon about seveh miles from
Tripoli. The vessels Were almost at
right angles when the Victoria Was
struck. Those On the Victoria's decks
tit the moment of the collision scram
bled away and were rescued by boat.1
fronr the Campcrdown and Heveral
other vessels. The men below had no
time to reach the deck. The sudden
reeling of the Victoria caused her to
begin to fill immediately, and no escape
was possible, and she went kown in
ninety fathoms of water. It is difficult
J to obtain the names of the rescued' as
i they are aboard several vessels, and so
far all efforts have been devoted to re
covering the bodies.
The queen will publish tomorrow a
special letter of condolence with the
families ailiictcd by the disaster.
The queen has sent Colonel Harring
ton to express her sorrow and sympa
thy to Lady Tyron.
On the evening following the after
noon of the disaster Lady Tyron, who
arrived from Malta three weeks ago,"
Was holding her first reception of the
Beason. Two hundred guests were
present. When the news of her hus
band's death was received she fell in a
faint. Her functions have been post-
1 poned.
The lord mayor has opened a relief
fund for the benefit of the families of
the men lost in the disaster. The news
papers all publish leaders extending
condolence to the friends of the drowned
men. Every leader eulogizes Admiral
. Tyon.
1 The Times says that the inquiry into
the causes of the disaster must be
i searching and exhaustive the punish
ment, if blame be found to exist, ade
quate and unflinching.
The loss of the Victoria is looked
upon as confirming the opinion of many
naval officers that the monster war

to unwieldy for serious mamevering

that the loss of the Victoria was mainly
due to this defect It is probable that
either the Camperdown or the Victoria
could not lessen the impetus received

May Interfere to Save Them.
London, June 22. The question of
the Armenians who were sentenced to
death at Angora by the Turkish author
ities on the charge of having been con-'
cerned in the rioting at Cesarea and
Marsovan last spring came up in the
house of commons. The government '
was questioned in regard to the matter,
and Sir Edward Grey, parliament iry
secretary of the foreign ollice, replied
that the sentence of death imposed
upon Professor Thoumain, Professor
haj-ayan and fi'teen other Armenians
were subject to review by the Turkish
court of cassation. Sir Edward added
that the English charge d'affaires at
Constantinople had been instructed by
the government to u e every effort to
prevent the sentence being carried out
pending a full consideration of all the
circumstancesinvolved. i
s ..
Mr. Stevenson asked Sir Edward il
the government would endeavor to ob-i
tain a remission of the sentences.
Sir Edward replied that the govern-
ment wou'd wait for a report from the
vice consul at Angora on the conduct
of the trial and on the evidence before
deciding what further representation;
should be made to the porte.

Senator Stanford Dead.
Mexlo Pap.k, Cal., Juric S2; United
States Senator Leland Stanford died at
his residence, Palo Alto, at midnight.
He was in the best of spirits yesterday,,
driving around his stock farm, seem
ingly ;is well us ever. He retired at 10
p. in. At midnight his valet, going
into his room, discovered that he was
dead:
For sbmc lime" he iiad bec'n talcing on
ilesh rapidly, accompanied by "ippetitd
signs. These became io alarming that
his physicians prescribed a strict diet
of fried hash meat and hot water as
his only food and drink. He seemed
better and became very hopeful of final
rl'cUverV. but inherent weakness unex-
pectedly manifested itself and lie passed
away.
A profound hush and sadness has set
tled over the Stanford estate. The
i body of the senator lies in a bedroom
! upstairs, a peaceful smile on his face,
I which is particularly lifelike. Mrs.
Stanford, with her brother and niece,
Mrs. I. I J. Taylor, are still keeping
vigil at the bedside. io Ueunite ar
rangements have yet been made re
garding the funeral. It will be from
j the Chapel at the Unhersity, probably
on Saturday at 11 O'clock.
I The senator retired at 10 d'clock.
j At I:2o his old, trusted Valet, Edward
I Larguy, who for some time had visited
the senator at different times during
! the night, went in. Seeing that soine
1 thing w as wrong, he gave the alarm,
I first to Mra. Stanford then to Private
I Secretary Nash. When Mrs. Stanford
, reached the room her husband had
bieathed his last. Mr. Nash at once
i sent for the loeal physician. Dr. Ston
' ard, but there was nothing that could
I be doilc.
) Leland Stanford was born in Albany
i county, New York, March 9, 1S24. He
received an academical education, en
tered the law otlice of Whcatou, Doolit
tle & Dudley at Albany, in 1S40, and
after three years' study was admitted
to practice in the supreme court of the
stat'e of New York. He removed to
Port Washington, in the northern pari
of the state of Wisconsin, Where lie ctt-
' gaged in the practice of his profession
for four years. A fire in the spring of
1S."2 destroyed his law library and other
property und he went to California,
where he became associated in business
with his brothers, three of whom had
preceded him to the Pacific coast. He
was at first in business at Michigan
Bluffs, and in 18."2 removed to Sacra-
I mento to engage in mercantile pursuits
on a large scale. Be was a delegate
to the national republican convention
at Chicago in 1S0O; was elected gover-
' nor of California, and served from De
cember, 18'il, to Dei ember, IS "3. As
t president of the Ccntial Pacific Kail
road company he superintended its
construction over the mountains, build
ing 530 miles of it in 2'J'.l d ivs. He was
interested in other railroads on the
. Pacific slope, in agriculture and in
manufactures. He was elected to the
i r -
United States senate as a republican in
the place of J. T. Farley, ocmocrat, in
1S84, and re-elected in ltv.iO. His term
of service would have expired March 3,
1S!7. He also founded Leland Stan
ford university, the leading educational
institution on the coast.
LlghtninR-s Awful Work.
Minneapolis, June 22. A Tribune
special from River Falls, Wis., savs:
' At t o'clock this afternoon the circus
i tent of Ringling Bros, was struck by
i lightning while crowded with people.
The performance was not quite over,
but the terrible storm caused the im
' mense throng to crowd outside of tlie
1 tent. While many of the people were
j outside the tent was struck twice-by
lightning. Fire resulted but it was ex
tinguished. Seven were killed instant
ly and a few more were injured, and
! the balance were temporarily paral
yzed by the shock.
I The scene of the fatality surpasses
description, when men and women
surged toward the scene, and it was
only by the exercise of rare presence of
mind by the Messrs. Ringling that they
prevented further serious trouble. They
did everything possible to alleviate the
i sufferings of the injured. Rough can-

to the wounded. Stretchers were placed
on four full grown men, and as the in
jured and dead were carried out they
were recognized.
The Gold Cotuluff Hack.
Washington, June 22. United States
Treasurer Morgan yesterday received a
cablegram from London stating that
Baring, Magoun & Co. of New York and
London had shipped S9i-0,000 in gold.
This is the first gold in considerable
quantity shipped to the United States
during the present stringency. For the
past three weeks no gold has been ex
ported from New York to Europe. As
a consequence the treasury has been
gaining gold, the net gold balance yes
terday standing at J 1,010,410.
In the building of this gold the treas
ury department has received nearly
4,000.000 gold certificates, the amount
outstanding j-esterday beingS'.S,070,00'J
against $101,000,000 on thelastof June.
While the receipts and expenditures
of the treasury department have kept
about even during the mouth the stated
balances today is 20,110,120. Of this
amount $14,000,0(0 is in subsidiary coin
and $11,920,000 in national bank de
positories. The statement shows that
the treasury is provided with a good
working balance, so much so, indeed,
that it is possible that the department
will anticipate quarterly interest due
;'uiy l on tlie Lniteit states 4 per cent
ionds aud I)ai' t!us interest next week,
.Treasurer Morgan says that he is in
gooo conuuion to no tins ana awaits
iiiu uuutuuu ui ocurmiiry Carlisle CO
send out the interest checks. Many of
these are now due. and should Mr. Car
lisle decide to anticipate the July in
terest most of the checks should be
prepared and entered next week. The t
object in anticipating the interest, i
which, in point of fact, would be less '
than ten days, would be to relieve the
money market.

s f A , , ,l
nave nereioiore issued irom tne state
ucpuriiuuiib oi justice oe couniersignen
by the attorney general, instead of the"
secretary of state. His action, which
was taken with the entire approval of
both Secretary Gresham and Attorney
General Olney, will result in giving an'
average of four days between tha actu
al granting of a pardon by the presi
dent and tile date upon which the re
leise papers are forwarded to the su
perintendent of the prison in which the
parcliorictt convict Is confined. It is also
an e'conoffiicftl move which will save
the prisoners ttid amount represented
by food consumed by the prisoner dur
ing (here few days while he Is ".railing
for the paper's to reach him. Tills is,
however, a minor rifcitter. The principal
fact is that the president in taking this
action seems disposed to dispense with
as much red tape as possible in the
transaction of public business. Orig
inally the statu department, was sort
of clerical, bureau for all of tht others.
All commlssib'ns fof-appointments were
at one time issued1 by it. One by one,
however, these duties lisll't been cur
tailed and the work has been assigned
to the depaftifient o which it naturally
belongs. Hereafter Colonel Scott, the
attorney in charge of pardons, will
prepare all the papers in the pardon
cases without having to send them two
or three times to the state department.
One of the reasons advanced in .sup
port of the alleged proposed shaking
tip of divisjon chiefs in the war dep irt
mcrit Is the" necessity for simplifying
and expediting its bnsiness. Accord

about and dilatory. Different systems
hate" grown up in the various adminis
trations and the present mode is con
fusing. Senator StrnrordV WanhlnBton Life.
Washing i on, Jufic S3. Senator and
Mrs. Stanford's life in this c'lty was nat
urally a very prominent one. They came
here eight years ago, when the-shadow
of their great grief over the loss of their
only child, Leland Stanford, jr., which
had occurred two years previously, was
Still over them. During the first of
their stay In the eity the Stanfor.ls oc
cupied the old Johmotl annex of the
Arlington. Subsequently they leased
the house at 11.01 Iv street and made
improvements in it. After Mrs. Stan
ford laid aside her dee"p mourning, she
entertained every winter in the most
elaliorate style. Her dinners were al
ways notable events and, net haps no
banquet in this city has ever exceeded
the elegance of the dinner given in
honor of President and Mrs. Harrison.
Wltild nothing was spared on these spe
cial occasions to do honor to their dis
tinguished guests, the preparations of
Mr. Stanford each winter were no lets
marked. The humblest visitor would
be a welcome as the most favored and
the resources of the establishment were
at the pleasure of the great throng.
Senator Stanford made it a rule to get
home from the senate early in those
days and took interest in seeing the
crowds of stranger.-, as was commensur
ate with his position. The people of
the city admired him.
Of Senator Stanford's magnificent
gifts in the eatlsc of education and his
constant responses to all claims of char
ity, the public already knows. Hun
dreds of thousands of dollars were
freely bestowed, but none knew of hh
gifts by being told by him.
Fred Douglass on IngalU.
Chicago, June 23. "I consider John
J. Ingalls a man who has lost the con
fidence of the colored people." said
Frederick Douglass, in speaking of the
senator's recent article on the black
race. "It is not so many years ago,''
he continued, since he posed as a de
fender of John Brown and a champion
of the colored people.
"There have been but few national
problems irt, the lest three years in
which he has not, sooner or later, been
upon both sides. He is now agitating
a subject that has been settled. The
war settled the slavery question. The
people have decided that the negro is a
citizen: that he is entitled to the emol
uments and honors of ollice and that he
shall be protected in his civil rights.
"The social question cannot be set
tlced by legislation. The rich man will
associate with his class and a poor man
with his. A person may occupy a seat
at the Lest table in the land and still
be as distant from the company socially
as the north pole is from the south.
Riding in the best ear, eating at the
best table and occasionally mixing in
fine company do not make soeial equal
ity. There must be mutual interests,
intellectual and moral attraction.
"Ingal's allegation that the blacks
and whites are as far apart as in the
beginning is not borne out by facts.
Tliere has been an admixture of the
whites and blacks. Whether the pro
portion will increase in ratio in the
future I do not know, but the evidence
points that way.
Sea re hi nc for Tracy ltody.
Lakamik, Wyo., June 23. Nearly all
of the business houses of this city were
closed yesterdaj afternoon and the
business men, clerks, employes and cit
izens generally, constituted a search
ing party to drag the Rig Laramie river
for the remains of young Redney Tracy,
who was drowned last Saturday. Be
tween 3)0 and 400 persons joined the
party and have been at work along the
river all the afternoon endeavoring to
recover the body, but were unsuccess
ful. The closing of the business houses
and the assistance rendered by citizens
was in compliance with a resolution
passed by the city council Tue d ly
evening and a published request upon
the part of Mayor Msmasse. It is four
days since the drown'ng occurred and
the river has been dragged and seined
for miles without encountering the
body. The water is very high and it is
the opinion of some that the body has
been carried far away by the swift cur
rent, while others believe it lies buried
beneath the quicksand in some deep
spot.
General Van Wyck's Condition.
Nebraska Citv, June 21. Intimate
friends of General Van Wyek are seri
ously apprehensive respecting his con
dition. II has not recovered from his
prostration to the extent that the pub
lie has been led to believe, and he is
really in a very feeble state. It was the
intention to take him to the Hot
Springs in Arkansas, but he is too weak
to endure the journey at present. The
general's condition is precarious, and
the chances arc against his ultimate
recovery. His physician and friends
have been unremitting in their atten
tion. Mrs. Van Wyek has labored d ly
and night for his restoration until she
is well-nigh exhausted, but in spite of
all efforts the general is failing and
almost past recovery.
