ANNEXATION OF CANDAHAO.
The Marquis of Hartington yester
day receivdd a deputatioa of mer
chants , mili'ary ' men and others in
favo ; of alte : og the policy of the gov
ernment rcganling Afghanistan. They
urged upon hin the importance of
mnexing Oandahat on military , com
mercial and political grounds. To
abandon the country now would , in
their opinion , be simply throwing away
all that had been gained by a vast ex
penditure of bloood and money , and
leave a legacy , which would have to
be fought for again , at a no distint
day , under still more disadvantageous
conditions. Lord Hartington.m re
ply , said that the question was a diffi
cult one. It would not be decided
precipitately , bat he insisted that no
military ra on , short of self-prEser
Vatioti , could justify the annexatioa
of Gtndahar to England. The mar
quis also doubled the advisability of
iti annexation from a commercial ,
point of view.

While the balance uf trade has been

The republican congressional commit-

ho matter of forcing the nominee ot
.he ticket. The nominee is Hon.
tloawell L Herr , \vho represented the
diatrict last term In congress. The
ireseut atato'of affairs ia brought about
the fact that several prominent re
niblican leaders proposed to bolt and
; o over to the democrats if they could
nut beat him otherwise. Their rea
sons for this probably are that they
were atung when Herr was in business
a few years ago. Herr ia now in
Mainestumping , and from there wrote
a letter of withdrawal at the request
of the members of the committee.
There is little doubt but that the
matter will break the present solid

A St. Augustine , Flrt , ssya there is
very little doubt that tlio steamer
'City of Vera Cruz , " of the Mexicin
lue , which sailed from Now York on
he 25th of August , for Havana and
Vera Cruz wont down in the recent
lUiricauo which hrtt already strewn
our conit ttith wrecks. No
lopca remain that any of
ler passengers bare survived
inoe the terrible discovery made iicre
on Wednescby , when porriona of the
mail carried by the ill-fated veSiel
wore washed ashore some miles south
if nore. Ono njrtil bag contained let-
era for Cuba and Mexico , which hld
> ecn posted in Paris , France , Augujt
3th , and another was found with'eii -
'elopEs bearing the postmark , "Now
York , August 25th. " This at once
ndicated _ that the lost rtftiol was
i mail steamer bound for
louihern ports , and the surmise was
, hat it must haVa been this "City of
Vera Cruz , " as the left New York on
he d iy last named. On examination
of tlifl mail matter these ttnniciona
were believed to be confirmed by the
iscovpjy of several bills of lading of
ho'City of Vera Crus. " On Salur-
ay a yeaael supposed to bo her passed
; he brig "Caroline Eddy , " tht-n about
ixty miles frdm thri coast of St. Aug-
UBtine. This brig wa ? soon after
Uuck by a hurricane and wrecked ,
riftii'g on the beach near the place
rhei'u the lost letters were discovered.
At the time the steamer wa sighted
he wag headed south , the wind then
ilowing Vcry ? hard end the gale rising.
? he "City of Vera Cruz" must have
jecn struck by the hurricane , and
irob'xbiy foundered Saturday night or
Sunday morning.
Every hour brings the news ot some
tarlling discovery in regird to the
upposed wreck. Sad tidings come
low that the body of a lady and little
iiild have been found on the shore ,
'hey were buried by a party
f wreckers on the sahd near the place
vhrre they were found. This niakea
heady five bodies found , the three
tbers being cofpaea of unknown men

liter. The shore f r over fotty mtlte
cuth of thin place is stiewn with the i-
c rgo of the steimbr. A triitli hu'a"
icea found mrked Hernandez. This
corresponds with the uamo of a
ady on the pasSellgor list of
ho "City of Vera Cruz , " as appeared
n New York papers list Thursday.
.ho mails , or at least all that could be
ouud of them , were brought Lore
Wednesday , and will be forwarded to
loinis whence they can bo transmitted
, o their destinations. People along

TERRIBLE TIMES.
Special Dispatch to The Bee.
NEW YOKK , September 4,1 a. m.
First Olliccr James Heuckley , of the
steamer ' 'New Orleans , " which passed
safely through the gale in which the
ill f-itid llVefa Cruz" was lo t , being
interviewed , said : "It was a tremendous
deus cyc'one.Yo lelt Now Orleans
Aimust L'fith and wcfd out three days
when the cyclone struck us. It was
about 6 p. ra. on Saturday. The
storm was from the north and
passed to the east. The steamer was
struck on the port side and waa heaved
on her beams end. At 11 p. m. tha
winds was very strong and the waves
carried everything from the deck. A
man , who was securing the tiller
rop3s , waa carried overboatd by a
vt&yti al'uost ' as high aa u home , and
iiuthing wasseOiiof him. At 10 a.
in. the next chy the storm abated.
Then we learned that our entire deck
rail had been carried away , three of
our beats steve in and the fourth lest.
All during the terrible cyclone four
men renuiiiicd at tha rtidder , which
was of no use , however , atid wo were
driver < vt the mercy , of the sea and
high waves. It w.is impossible for a
human Wing to stand on the deck un
less ho win Lished to tha nVging , and
then hia chances were very alight.
Thujorm first struck us between
C ipu Jupiter and Canvernal , off the
c < nat ( f Florida. Several seamen on
boar-'i the "New Orlcuia" incidentally
remarked that the "Vera Cruz" must
have been about sixty miles to the
northwest of their steamer.
V EA CttUZ MAY NOT BE LOST.
No word was reoeived up to 10
o'cL ck List evening by the Messrs.
Alexander in rcgml to the miming
ntsamship ' 'Veia CruK. Many rela
tives of pissengcts called at the
Alexander niani > n last night ,
and wore disappointed when no ves

ken , who had command of the "Vera

ened tha fears of rel-itives of parsons
on board , who wera waiting for

thit the vecael could ride safely
thrcu h nnysca : that ho had no doubt
whatever tlr.t she would curae out all
right. Ho know the vessel , he said ,
and did not believe that any storm
between hero and Havana could sink
her. Hope thus held out was in
creased by the news that the steamer
"Nnjr.ir , " of SVard'a line , which
sail.'d the day after the "Vera Cruz , "
has not been he.ud from , and no anx

it passed in review before the Mil
waukee Turnera and the reception
committee. The line then opened
ranks and the reception committee and
guests passed down and took position
at the head of the column
which then marched through
the p-iccipsl streets to the Turn-hall.
As the line approached , fire-worka
were let off and bunting and Chinese
lanterns combined to make a scene at
once a-iiroated r.iul brilliant. Hun
dreds of people on the siduwalks ,
a'ong the streets cheered the
victorious turners as they cntereu
the hall. Aa the head of the pro-
ccsiion filed in bunting and inscrip
tions of welcome met them. The

the the most prominent of which was
a chasm across which was a turning
bir with an athlete in the air , while
the ends were supported by Uncle
Sam and Columbia on one aide and
Jimnarck and King William on the
other. Through the full length
of the hall were ranged five tables
( ilHl uithchaira , which were rapidly
filled Aa the crowds came in , prom
inent and towering among them was
the socialist pgitator , Justice Schwab.
Along the table was placed just at the
foot of th'J ctaf.e , and here guests were
