CHARLESTON. S. C. , Nov. 5. The
ocean tug Merrltt put Into Charleston
this morning for supplies. It reported the
lews of the cruUcr , Maria Teresa , raised by
Constructor Hobson recently , oft San Salvador
vader , Bahamas , November 1 , in the midst
of a furious storm. The cruiser left Calma-
nera , Cuba , on the morning ot October 30 ,
in tow , for New York. It had already passed
Capo Ma > nl , and started northeast around
the Bahamas. A furious storm , warning ot
which had already been Bent out , overtook
it , and in its condition , it was uuablo to
weather the gale. The strain opened rents
in the hull , which had bc < m patched , to en
able It to make the Journey , and It began to
nil rapidly. The Merrltt took off Captain
Harris nnd the crew from the sinking ship ,
and it soon went down.
The Mcrritt brought the captain and 136
men , who will proceed north by rail. No
lives weio lost , as far ns known. The Mer
rltt is now at quarantine , six miles from the
city , communication with U being dllllcurt.
Story of ( he Wreck.
WASHINGTON , Nov. 5. A thrilling
ctory of the loss of the cruiser
Maria Teresa Is given In the official report
of Lieutenant Commander Harris to the sec
retary ot _ the navy received by telegraph at
the Nary' department late this afternoon.
It is dated on board the wrecking steamer
Merrltt , fifty miles off Charleston , Novem
ber 4 , and says :
"Secretary of the Navy Washington Sir :

I have the honor to make the following re
port of the loss ot the Infanta Maria Teresa.
"On November 1 at 1 a. m. I found that
it was blowing hard and went on the lower
bridge. We had left Watllng'a Island light
abeam at 10 o'clock and up till midnight the
weather was pleasant , and nil went well
with the ship , although wo had trouble In
keeping the pump In the forward fire room
from being choked with coal. The wind
continued to Increase in force until perhaps
3 a. m. , when it reached its height , al
though there were times all day when it
blew as hard. The direction was about
northeast. The sea continued to rise until
perhaps C p. m. ; there was a heavy sea all
the following day. The pumps were re
ported every hour.
"Soon after I came on deck I relieved
the second mate , Mr. Johnson , so that he
could go below to flght the water. About
3:30 : the flrst mate , Captain LeCato , came
up and he also went below to work. Cap
tain Chlttonden , who was on dock almost
as soon as I , gave his attention to the pumps ,
and especially to priming the centrifugal
pump In the forward fire room. Tbero were
many now leaks. When a heavy sea struck
the Bides the plates leaked at the butts nud
beams , showing after the fire they had ro-
iumed their former appearance , but wore
not tight. There was at the mainmast an
Inch of thwartshlp vibration and only half
an Inch longitudinal vibration. Whlla mak
ing this examination , about 4:30 : a. m. , Cap
tain Chittenden was thrown down and fell
on the chain , hurting his side and back
enough to temporarily disable him. He
continued to give us valuable advice.
Son IlrcnUN Into Conl Hunker * .
"At 3 a. m. wo made signal to the Vul
can and Merrltt , to go to windward , which
they did as well ns they could , Up to 1
o'clock a m. wo were running the star
board main engines and had steam on the
two central boilers and three of the short
1 forward boilers , but the trouble In the for
ward fire room caused the steam to run low
! and lighten fires under the starboard after
boiler and stopped the englno so as to run
the steam up for the pumps. The pump
for keeping the water trom the forward com-
partmcnt was driven by a belt , nnd when
the sea broke over the bows , the belt became -
came wet and slipped. Aa soon as the watef
was up to the floor place In the forward
flrc room , the rolling of the ship swashed
into the coal bunkers and carried the coal
out , choking Ihc pump and carrying thd
floor plates about , which made it difficult
and dangerous to work thero.
"About 8 o'clock I called for volunteers
to hoist coal and water Into the ash hoist.
Everbody responded nnd th work was con
tinued ns long ns It seemed of any use.
About 3'30 a. m. It was reported that water
wai coming Into one ot the starboard for.
ward coal bunkers and running Into the flro
looms. Where the water came from vve
do no know. About 2 o'clock the 11-inch
gun in the after turret ran out twice.
When It recoiled the second tlmo something
i gave way and It settled to extreme eleva
tion and remained stationary.
I Took to the limit-
"At 1 p. m. Captain Chittenden asked mete
to elgnal the Vulcan Just oft the Mcrrltt'B
tow Hues and have the Morrltt come along
side. I then assumed the command , told
the men what was to be done and assigned
them stations , I told the chief engineer
to start the englno to aid the Vulcan in
| keeping our bead up. He did to , but It
could run but a short tlmo with the steam
we had ,
"Wo signalled the Vulcan : 'Wo are about
to abandon snip ; try to keep ua head to
wind,1
"I order-J Captain Lerato to take charge
of the lee surf boat and when It was low.
ercd to the rail ordered Captain Chltteiv
don Into it against his repeated protests
Ho was placed lu the boat with his son
This boat was unable to reach the lluei
we had astern , but the Merrltt picked i
up and after taking Captain Chlttendci
aboard , towed the boat to our lee quartei
end repcaicd this maneuver each trip , forni'
Ing a lee for tbo boats to come hero am
hen towing them back. It waa splendldl ]
handled. From 2 until 5 o'clock the worl
of transferring the crew continued.
"Captain LeCato made two more trips
when , his arm being disabled , his place wai
taken by Mr. Johnson , who also took twi
beat loads. The life raft was taken eve :
and capsized , but was righted. It was pu
in charge of James Boahford , ordinary sea
man , of the Illinois naval militia. Ho am
his crew took six Cubans to the Merrltt
The smaller Hurt boats stowed on board 01
the lea side was then gotten out and I pu
It lu charge of Charles A. Dunne , quarter
master ilrat class. I gave him nearly al
the good seamen left fcr a crew. It wa
launched very handsomely nnd made twi
trips. In all those trips wo poured oil fron
the sponsona on both sides , and the Vulcai
also used oil to make It smooth , where th
embarking was done. I doubt If wo couli
have \\orked without It.
Crew Hcnnvuil llravely.
"Tho tliip labored moro and moro feebly
Deforo I left the brldgo It rolled Its sponson
under , which I should estimate to bo thlrt ;
degrees , and the pitching was enough t
show the rudder , propellers and perhap
twelve feet of the keel. It was about fou
feet by the head. It fell into the sea vcr
heavily nnd shuddered as It rose. There vva
no water aft. The Vulcan did Its best t
keep our head up , steering to starboard an
going to full speed while the sea beat th
Teresa's head to port. Throughout the da
th Vulcan did everything possible. W
were constantly signalling. With the excep
tion of throe men who got drunk nnd gav
much trouble , nil the crew behaved well
Every man did his duty and my orders wer
instantly oLoycd by reciters and men of th
navy.
"About 4:30 : ho made signal , 'Hang on t
the wreck until you are sure it Is sinking
to which the Vulcan replied , 'We will hoi
on until It sinks or parts the tow lino,1
"The last signal he made was 'These tw
boats will take nil. '
"After that I had to go aft to force th
drunken men overboard and about 5 o'cloc !
we were all off. The boats were haulei
under the stem as near as It was safe , wher
the oil and lee of the ship made It smootl
nnd were held by one line whileanothc
line , with a ladder attached , floated to th
stern. Two double bights were stopped 01
the right elJo to go over a man's shoulder
The end was slacked from the ship and whei
two men Jumped they were hauled into th
boat. A very One fellow named Olsen at
tended to this. When nil had gone but h
and I ho cut the line and wo jumped to
gether. U was perhaps 6:30 : when w
reached the Mcrritt. While it was gettlni
the surf boats the Vulcan slipped the hawse
of the Infanta Maria Teresa. I pxpect tha
the wreck dragging off to port brought al
the strain on the port bridle and startedd th
bits. When the boats were in , the Merrltt
at my rcrjucbt , started to epeak the Vulcau
but v\as unable to reach It and it apparentl
did not htar our whistle. The Merritt thei
returned to find the wreck but could not di
BO. The search continued until 1 p. m th
following day , when it headed for Charles

PHILADELPHIA. Pa. , Nov. C. Mass
meetings nil over the slate tonight closed
the most heated political cnnipnlgn that
Pennsylvania has experienced In many
years. There nro four full ntato tickets In
the field. For governor they are : W. A ,
Stone , republican ; Gcorgo A. Jenks , demo
crat ; Silas C. Swallow , prohibitionist , pee
ple's liberty and honest government , nnd J.
Mnhlou Barnes , socialist-labor. The follow
ers ot Stone , Jcuks and Swallow nro claim
ing with considerable degree of confidence
that their favorite will be elected and there
Is every Indication that each of these three
candidates will receive a heavy vote. Swal
low has received the formal endorsement
of the prohibition , people's , liberty and hon
est government parties. A number of re
publicans nnd democrats also publicly de
clared their Intention of voting for Swal
low as an evidence of their dlbsatlsfactlon
with pnrty leaders.
Notwithstanding the claims made by th <
Swallow and Jenks leaders , the republican
party managers claim that the alleged dis
affection In the party v\lll have no othei
effect than to slightly reduce the pnrtj
vote for Stone and State Chairman Elklr
tonight claims that the republican candi
date will have nt least 100,000 plurality.
The present delegation In congress com
prises twenty-seven republicans and three
democrats. U Is generally believed tnt
democrats will regain a few of .the districts
lost by them during the congressional elec
tion of 1896. The last legislature had at
overwhelming majority.
On Tuesday next there will bo elected 201
members of the house and twenty-five sen
ators , half of the senate twenty-four re
publicans nnd one democrat holding over ,
The now legislature will elect a United
States senator to succeed Senator Quay.

Factional differences have caused Inde
pendent nnd fusion tickets hero the last two
years , but this year there nro straight party
tickets only. For this reason the repub
licans will likely elect both congressmen ,
but the old factional Hues may affect their
county tickets. The only national issue agi
tated hero was on sustaining the national
administration with a republican majority
In congress. Neither side discussed t'
tariff , currency or other questions. There
are five state tickets republican , demo
cratic , prohibition , socialists and reformers.
Whllo the icpubllcans will likely carry the
state , the democrats claim the republicans
cannot gain nny congressman. On the last
presidential vote the republicans secured
fifteen and the democrats six congressmen
in Ohio.

TOPEKA , Kan. , Nov. C. The campaign In
Kansas has been remarkable for the car-
nest work of the leaders nnd the apathy
ot the voters , particularly lu the country
districts.
There are four tickets in the field , the
populists ( fusion ) , lead by Governor Lecdy ;
republicans , by W. F. Stanley ; prohibition
ists , by ox-Senator Peffer , nnd socialist
labor , by Caleb Llpscomb. The populists
have made a strong feature of the record
of their state officers ; the republicans , while
answering this , have featured the record of
President McKlnley.
As the plurality of Leedy was but slightly
nbovo 7,000 the margin for speculation on
the result Is very light. All but one of the
eight congressional districts nro claimed by
both the republicans nnd populists. A con
servative estimate of the Winners in the
congressional flght would perhaps be as fol
lows : Republican Curtis , In the First ;
Dowersock ; Second ; Miller , Fourth ; Dalley ,
at large. Populist Hldgcly , Third ; Vin

ST. LOUIS , Nov. 5. Tonight saw the
close of a political campaign in Missouri
that has been remarkable for nn off year.
Out in the btato the campaigning has been
heavy. The republican state managers were
prepared for democratic apathy In the state
and arranged to make a still hunt canvass
for the legislature. Unofficially It Is claimed
at democratic headquarters that they will
carry seventy-nine out of IIP counties In the
state , leaving entirely out of the fount those
which are doubtful. Sixteen counties nre
put In the doubtful column.
The democrats still claim every congress
man except Richard Dartholdt. The repub
licans claim that the congressional delega
tion from the state will number the same as
at present twelve democrats and three re
publicans.
In regard to the legislature , the demo
crats claim they will have a majority of
twenty on joint ballot , while the republic
ans claim that they will have a majority of

CHICAGO , Nov. C. Only two minor Btato
officers are to bo voted for generally in
Illinois next Tuesday. Twenty-two congress
men nnd a legislature are , however , to be
chosen , and the interest is centered In
them. Whllo the lower house wilt not par
ticipate in the election ot a United States
senator , twenty-six of the state senators to
be selected will hold over and take part in
naming a successor to Senator Cullom. The
republicans claim sixteen of the districts ,
giving ten to the democrats. The latter , on
the other hand , nay they will elect seven
teen senators and the republicans four. The
other five districts are doubtful. The pres
ent congressional deregatlon consists of sev
enteen republicans , four democrats and one
fuslonlst.
The republicans assert that they will gain
one or two seats. The democrats on the con
trary are confident of carrying Chicago and
if they do their expectation of several new
congressmen may bo realized. Silver formed
a part of the basis of the campaign of the
democrats in the congressional districts ,
considerable stress being laid also on the
McClcary bill which , it was maintained ,
would , if passed , result in a "bankers'
trust. "

"I1 or n good many e r8 I was a'l ng from
a catarrh of the tin oat and head After
tha disease had been active for a long time
the ears became affected , so that 1 had
constant und violent roaring sounds. This
continual nolso was distracting In the ex
treme , and roo-ed mo of all comfort There
also developed neuralgia of the head , char
acterized by severe tubing pains The lat
est complication was an almost total deaf
ness In the light oar , which was always
worse upon taking cold. In a general way
also my strength and vitality were lowered ,
which I always believed resulted from the
complicated t ondltlon In my head and
oars. A short course of treatment with
Dr. Shepard line given me excellent health.
The catarrhal trouoblo has been mastered
also the deafness and headache. I have
scarcely any symptom now of those terri
ble head noises. "

SOMI2 OPPOSITION TO PINGIICC.
Michigan IlcniovrntH Clnlm Iliilf of
DETROIT , Nov. 5. Until within a week
ot election day the Michigan campaign was
quiet and apathetic. It had been conceded
that Governor I'lngreo and the republican
state ticket would be erected. The second
week , however , considerable opposition tea
a tecond term of Governor PIngreo devel
oped among Influential republicans , but it
Is claimed that the effect upon Governor
I'lngree'g expected big majority will not bo
noteworthy. The democrats have made an
extremely active campaign and they predict
the bafo election ot ex-Congressman Whit
ing as governor. They all claim the elec
tion of at least half of the congressional
delegation , which now contains but two
democrats.
In the screctlon of members of the legis
lature , Governor Plngrce's equal taxation
reforms have developed into almost as much
ot an issue as party politics. The populists
and mlddle-of-tlic-road populists have sep
arate tickets , which seem destined to cut
little figure in the results.

in the field , but it will not secure 1,000 votes.
The republicans have forced the fighting on
national IASUCB nnd have urged upon voters
the duty of standing by the administration.
The republican platform declares un
equivocally for the gold standard. The
fusloulsts have avoided silver issues where
possible , have criticised the administration's
conduct of the war and have urged their
claims to suffrage on the strength of hav
ing passed a strong anti-railroad law two
years ngo. Chairman Harried of the to-
publican state committee predicts victory
for the state ticket , and says two repub
licans will bo elected to succeed two popu >
