twenty.slx cabIn passengers on board ,
but they were mostly rescued by the com-
pany's harbor boat Hercules Carrel , which
rendered valuable asslstonce to the long-
fellow.
So far os known seven persons lost their

This Is the Ileath list sO far as known rrom
today's river dlsuster , In which the inagnill-
cent New Orleans steamer longfelow was
crushed on a bridge Iller ) and sunk In less
than five minutes. Unfortunately the ( com- '
Illete list may never be lown. All the rec- '
onll oC the steamer were lost with I , and
10 passenger U ! Is ever ashore. 1.01 hours
there were rumor oC the loss of an Invald
young woman from New York , accompanied
by a female physician , but the constant asser-
ton of the ofcers oC the steamer that aU the
passengers \ \ ere rescued except 'Ir. Aidridge
and ) the statement oC passengers that there
was no Panic or wild rushing for safety led to
the hope that the rumor was groundless.
Late In the aferoon , II a portion oC the
wreelage , which hall bec'l landed some distance -
tance below the city the body oC a young
woman was found. Slm was wearing a satin
night dress and a hlack skirt was about her
feet , as if I she had been In the act or dress-
Ilg. A entail satchcl was In her hand but I
contained nothing to identity her. She has
since been Identified as Mrs. Aul or Day-
ton , O.

The accident was one oC peculiar horror
I was daylight , the tog had disappeared , the
7 great atearner fearful oC the peril oC passing
the bridge piers , hat been given the assist-
ance of the powerful to\\ boat Hercules Car-
roll. When almost upon the pier the Pilot
round himself confronted wIth an alarming
condition. The Iloworful cross currents.
which no human foresight could have located
caught the steamer like a toy and turned
the how away iCom the course he hat given
I. At the same time the smoke from the (
- lowered chimneys which had bee let down
to allow the boat to pass under the bridges ,
was wholly obscuring his vIsion.
TIle Hercules Carroll's pilot being
located almost behind the great steamer , was
also unable to see the hoat's positIon , and
10le 1eely It was not strong enough to turn
Its course against the treacherous current
And fO the fated Longfellow was carried like
a helpless thing against the pier and crushed
Into a wreck. So quick was the work of do-
strcton that In fIve minutes nol a vsUge
or the great steamer was visible except bits
of wreckage floating on the river The car-
penter lUl ) time 10 go Into the hold wih a

WASINGTON. March S.-Assistant Seere-
( any Curtis tOday made the ( following state
bent : "In view oC certain statements In the
newspapers that treasury ofcals arc embar-
rnssel ly on nleged failure In gold delIverIes
tinder the recent contract and other assertions
oC a slnlnr nature , calculated to mlsleall and
disturb lie ( Iluhlo mind , I wish to MY that
the actual wlhdrawlls ( of gold from the treas-
uy since the ( let of larch , 189 , have been
$ 35r1,347 , or which 2S1OS7 have been for the
redemption or United States treasury notes
all 74,2GO for the redemption of Unied
States notes , and divided among the cities ot
New York , Boston , Phiadelphia , Baltimore ,
San Francisco , SI. Louis and Chicago. These
are no more than the ordinary wihdrawals
which In the past have usually taken place
at this season oC the year Moreover , durIng -
lug the same period the treasury has received
conslJerlle gold coin In exchange for various
kinds oC paper currency. The arparent fiI-
log off In the gold reserve wn caused ly a I ,
misunderstanding : In ( lie gold reserve stalc-
ment ot the ( treasury , mate up trout the state-
ment sent from New Yorkwhlch should not
have been included In the ( gold reserve until
the fnal certificates or deposit upon which
bonus could be Issued were delivered , The
, February fIgures quoted In some or the news-
papers as withdrawn Include the heavy with-
drawals or the earlier part oC the month before -
fore the gold purchase contract was made
and one single large item , not withdrawn
for export , concernIng which there has been
consilcrablo newspaper comment.
"The treasury olcials who are charged with I
the responslbl ( of these transactions - have :
no anxiety whatever In regard to the method :
which Is and has been pursued by the sell-
ers or the gold coin uller the ( reeeni con-
tract They are satisfied to contemplate the
tact that ( for five weeks the ( wlthdrawls or
gold coin have not exceeded the normal
amount , wih the ( exception of the Instance
quoted ' above , antI lint no exports or gold had
been made during that ( ( hue. The fact Is
fully $9.000,000 In gold has already bee deposited -
posited on the foreign account In excess ot
the contract requirements.
"In regard to ( lie excess of government ex-
pentltures over receipts I Is well known the
later are rapidly Increasing , and that up to
lila ( line nothing has beeti received from the (
income tax , and very little from sugar duty ,
both or which will be sources ot government
recehlts In the ( future.
"
"There Is plenty oC money In the treasury
to pay the. appropriations , and the statement
In some articles that I the treasury had 'the
money the passage or the enormous appropriations -
atlons would lead to the Immediate disburse
mont oC Immense sums oC money Is totally
untrue. There Is a question of law as to
when the appropriation for the payment ot
the sugar bounty becomes avaiable , and until
lint question Is settled It will be Impossible
to make any payment thereunder , Moreover ,
the claims for bounty must be adjusted before
payment , since payment must be male pro
rata Ir the appropriatIon Is Insuflicient. '
"The total available cash II the treasury
today amounts to $ S3.37.t9 : over ant above
the $100,000,000 allowed to cover the gold reserve -
serve , which Is $ S9.7t.59Ul.
"The treasury officials have no anxiety as
to their ability to meet all oblgatons In ( lie
Immediate Cuturl with ease anl are confident
the expected revival of business will . assure
( lie Cuture. "

the senate at as early 1 ditto lS possible.
The house resolution ofiered b ' Brady
reoluton was orerell by , ) . ,
and although worded ) somewhat differently ,
seeks to accomplish the same Inrpose ,
I I i feared , however , that the proposet In-
vestaton comes too late In the session to
produce practcal results . 'he senate ( has but
fourteen working days and trio house eleven.
But little mOle can be fccomplshed tn this
tme ( lien I surface Investigation.
Two years ago the senate appolnteJ n com-
mlteo to investigate charges ef cxtreme
cruelty upon lie ( part of attaches of the ( pen-
ientary toward the convicts The resolu-
ton was offered by Senator g. : I. Carroll ct
Hebron , and was called out by the death of
a convict named 10el. In its report the
commitee said among other things , that :
CQNDEINED TWO YEAHS AGO.
The Inmlshment li vogue In the Nebraska
penitentary for mnny years hns heen In-
human harbarous nnd cruel In Ilny crises .
\\'e fInd especially that the sYllem of punIshing -
Ishing convicts hy handcufllH their hUIII
behind them , passing U rope arouud their
necks whIch rope Is connected with lie
huandcuuIs . and drawn tight In order to lift
and support their hands . Is one that Ihould
not be tolerated In this enl htene.1 ( age . erIn .
In a civilized communlt . arid that such
punlhment Is one whIch Is likely at niuy
( line to be the iiutlirect cause of the ) death oC
the convict undergoing It <
Your commitee believes from the
evltence that the death or Convict Powell
was the direct and 1II0xlmnte result of the
cruel him and Inhman punishment InflIcted upon .
Your committee finds from the evidence
that Ilstance ' oC Ilexcusable cruelty upon
the part of guards , cell-house leeepcrs unit
other employps have been far too frequent.
Your committee finds that the system oc
contract labor Is demoralizing to the dis-
ciplne of the Instiuton ( and should be done
away with nt lie earliest possible moment.
The prlaonPts soon realize that they arc
nol working for the stnte or Nebraska and
that every moment of heir labor yields a
reward to u contractor with whom they
have no sympathY , and . they soon .1egln to
. bE.ilck In their work , which results In a
report t6 the warden and the consequent
punishment of the offending convict.
I'unishument inflicted for that reason only
simply cause " the convict to become soured
gloomy and dispirited : and al long as the
contrct ( system is t permitted to prevail the
discipline 'of the prison will he far below
dlsclpln
the standard which should exist
These extracts are quoted to show that
nothing has been done to put a stop to the
cruel practices ot the state penitentiary au <
to show the drift oC the present investigation.
I may be assumed with tolerable accuracy
that the senate Investigating comllt o will
nualce lie same complaint In regard to the
contract sy tem now tn vogue In this slate.
This much has practically been agreed upon
In al\vanee. \
JONES SWEARS HE WAS LYING.
The two convicts whose statements to
Governor Holcomb formed the basis of sent-
meat wh'ch co"mpelel\ republican majority
In both houses and senate to move for an
Investigation . have left thE city. Before they
disappeared . however , they went 10 time down
town ofilco or , v. I. Dorgan and signed an
a davlt In whIch thy swore their state-
ments ( to the governor were false. In the
affidavit they swear that they were leI to
make these statements hy'outslders , partIes
who hope to secure appointments at the
penitentiary and they agreed that Warden
Deemer anal , Contractor Dorgan are entirely
blameless ot every fault.
