Love and mat­ rimony among stage people usually run at cross purposes, but the case of this couple furnishes a shining exception. It is re­ puted that in all the?e years their domestic life has been as happy and free from "fam­ ily jars" as their acting has been delight­ ful to tbe admirers of pure comedy. No one who ever saw Mr. Florence as "Gen. Bardwell Slate, the member of Congress from the Cohosh District," and Mrs. Flor­ ence in the role of "Mrs. Gen. Gilflory," in the "Mighty Dollar," can fail to cherish a delightful recollection of those artistic and amusing interpretations. The Flor­ ences began their annual Chicago engage­ ment at Mc Vicker's Theater on Monday last. Knights at Work--General Officers In­ stalled. The general assembly of tbe Knights of La­ bor elected L. C. T. Schlieber, of Massachu­ setts. and J. M. Broughton, of Raleigh, N. C., members of the General Co-operate Board, at Richmond, on the 15th. David R. Gibson, of Hamilton, Canada, was elected Canadian Sup­ ply Agent. Mr. Powderly then installed the new officers. In addressing the assembly he expressed full confidence in all the men elected and pledged himself to the faith­ ful performance of his duties. He urged upon the delegates to impress the importance \of temperanse upon the local assemblies. He called attention to the fact that not one of the general officers elected used intoxicating liq­ uors. All of the general officers thyn formally pledged themselves to abstain from the use of intoxicants during their two years' term of office. A resolution was adopted declaring that the Knights of Labor recognize in the field of labor no distinction on account of color, but have no intention to interfere with the social relations existing between races in any part of the country. The report of the Com­ mittee on the State of the Order indorses the report of the Committee on Legislation and the supplementary report commending the estab­ lishment of a Labor Congress at Washington. It also indorses the General Master Workman's address to the general assembly and recom­ mends the indorsement of the report of Charles H. Litchman, special agent appointed by the General Master Workman to represent the order before the Congressional Committee appointed to investigate the cause and effect of the South- westarn railroad strikes. In his report Mr. Litchman ridicules the testimony given by the railroad's witnesses, who, he sava, wer« drilled to echo like parrots the statement that the only cause that they had ever heard assigned for the strike was the discharge of a man named Hall at Marshall.

[From the Chicago Tribune.] In tones so low and sympathetic that those not immediately around the bench could with difficulty catch the import of his words, Judge Gary began his address to the prisoners. When be oaxne to the formal pronouncing ot the Bt ntenoe, even Parsons, seemingly in spite of himself, fixed his eye upon his face. Hpies listened to the words of doom with steadfast I eye and defiant smile. Schwab's face was frave and inscrutable. Neebe looked excited. 'ielden pulled at his long beard. Lingg and Fischer gave 110 outward signs of emotion, and Kngel's manner was an stolid as ever. Far more agitated than the prisoners was Judge Gary himself. His voice fell lower and lower. As he pronounced the words "hanged by the neck" he paused, turned in his chair, and the conducing words, "until dead," Were barely audible. The full text of his address and the sentence is as follows: I am quite well aware that what you have said, although addressed to me, has been said to the world ; yet nothing has been said which weakens the force of the proof or the conclu­ sions therefrom upon which the verdict is based. You are all men of intelligence, and know that if the verdict htands it must be exe­ cuted. The reasons why it shall stand I have already sufficiently stated in decldiug the mo­ tion for a new trial. .1 am sorry beyond any power ot expression for your unhappy condition, and for the terrible events that have brought it about. I shall ad­ dress to you neither reproaches nor exhorta­ tion. What I shall say H1UI.11 be said In the faint hope that a fow words from a place where the People of the Htato of Ilinoia have delegated the authority to dcelnre the penalty of a violation of their luws. and spoken upon an occasion so solemn and awful as this, may come to the knowledge o and be heed­ ed by the ignorant, deludmi, and misguided men who have listened to your counsels and followed your advice. I say In the faint hope; for if men are pcrMiindcd that because of business differences, whether about labor or anything else, they may destroy property and assault and beat other men, and kill the police if they, in the discharge of their duty, inter- fere to preserve the peace, there is little ground to hope that they will listen to any warning. It is not the least among the hardships of the peaceable, frugal, and laborious poor, to endure the tyranny of mobs who, with lawless force, dictate to them, under penalty of peril to limb and life, where, when, and upon what terms they may earn a livelihood for themselves and their families. Any government that is worthy of the name will strenuously endeavor to secure to all within its jurisdiction freedom to follow the lawful avocations and safety for their prop­ erty and their persons, while obeying the law, and the law is common Bense. It holds each man responsible for the natural and probable consequences of his own acts. It holds that whoever advises murder is himself guilty of the murder that is committed pursuant to his advice, and if men band together for a forcible resistance to the execution of the law, and ad­ vise murder as a means of making such resist­ ance effectual, whether such advice be to one man to murder another, or to a numerous class to murder men of another class, all who are so banded together are guilty of any muider that is committed in pursuance of such advice. The people of this country love their institu­ tions, they love their homes, they love their property. They will never consent that, by vio­ lence and murder, those institutions shall be broken down, their homes despoiled, and their property destroyed. And the people are strong enough to protect and sustain their institutions and to punish all offenders against their laws; and those who threaten danger to civil society, if the law is enforced, are leading to destruction whoever may attempt to execute such threats. The existing order of society can be changed only by the will of the majority. Each man has the full right to entertain and advocate by speech and print such opinions as suit himself, and the great body of the people will usually care little what he says. But if he proposes murder as a means of enforcing, he puts his own life at stake. And no clamor about free speech or the evils to be cured or the wrongs to be redressed will shield him from the conse­ quences of his crime. His liberty is not a li­ cense to destroy. The toleration that he enjoys he must extend to others, and not arrogantly assume that the great majority are wrong and may rightfully be coerced by terror or removed by dynamite. It only remains that for the crime you have committed, and of which you have been convict­ ed after a trial unexampled in the patience with which an outraged people have extended to you every protection and privilege of the law which you derided and defied, that the sentence of that law be now given. In form and detail that sentence will appear upon the records of the court. In substance and effect it is that the defendant Neebe be im­ prisoned in the State Penitentiary at Joliet at hard labor for the term of fifteen yt ars. And that each of the other defendants, be­ tween the hours of ten o'clock in the forenoon and two o'clock in the a^ernoon of the third day of December next, in tnfe manner provided by the statute of this State, be hung by the neck until he is dead. Remove the prisoners. Capt. Black--Your Honor knows that we In­ tend to take an appeal to the Supreme Court in behalf of all the defendants. I ask that there be a stay of execution in tbe case of Mr. Neebe until Dec. 3. Mr. Grinnell--If the court please, that is a matter that usually stands between counsel for the defendants and the State. Every possible facility will be granted you, and no order can possibly be entered of record which would not be other but that will be allowed. Everything shall be granted you in that particular that good sense and propriety dictate. Capt. Black--That is sufficient. Instantly upon the pronouncement of the sentence all was confusion. Every eye was turned upon the prisoners, who rose from their se:its as though from force of habit and without volition. The spectators rose also and the rela­ tives of the condemned men pressed forward. The court called sharply for order and the heavy wand of the crier descended upon the bar. The women shrank back and the prison­ ers hastily resumed their seats. Only for an instant, however, for the bailiffs, seeing that it was but a burst of natural affection, let Nature have her way. Mrs. Parsous alone did not heed the crier's gavel, but rushed forward and threw her arms about her husband's neck as he atood at his chair. She hid her face in his neck and he bent his head until his face was concealed from view in her arms. Husband and wife retained their attitude for nearly a minute. Then she re­ leased him and turned away, her dark face hard and tense and her eyes dry. As she turned away Gen. Parsons threw his arms about his brother s neck, and the two men hid their faces on each other's shoulders. Spies, with a careless smile on his face, shook hands with his sister and other relatives, and spoke a few reassuring words to their tearful expres­ sions of sympathy. As he turned to go Mrs. Parsons rushed up to him, threw her arms about his neck, and kissed him vehemently on the lips. The other prisoners received the ex­ pressions of sympathy quietly and filed out of court without betraying emotion of any kind, handsome Louis Lingg looking even more in­ different and scornful than usual. Some Farther Excerpts from Parsons* Six Hours' Harangue. It is proposed by the prosecution here to take me by force and strangle me upon the gallows for these things I have said, for these expres­ sions. Now, your Honor, force is the last resort; it is ihe last resort of tyrants ; it is the last re­ sort of despots, of oppressors, and he who would strangle another because that other does not believe as he would have him, ho who would destroy another because that other will not do as he says, that man is a despot and a tyrant, and unworthy to live. Now, your Honor, I speak plainly ; I speak as an anarchist; I speak as a socialist; I speak as a wage slave, a working- man. Now, does it follow because I hold these views that I committed this act at the Hay- market? My own deliberate opinion concerning this Haymarket affair is that the death-dealing missile was the work, the deliberate work, of monopoly--the act of those who themselves charge us with the deed. I am not alone in this view of this matter. What are the real facts of that Haymarket tradgey') Mayor Har­ rison, of Chiqago, has caused to be pub­ lished his opinion, in which he says: "I did not believe that there was any inten­ tion on the part of Spies and those men to have bombs thrown at the Havmarket." He knows more about this thing than the jury that sat in this room, for he knows--I suspect that the Mayor knows--of some of the methods by which some of this evidence and testimony might have been manufactured. I don't charge it, your Honor, but possibly he has had some in­ timation of it, and if he has he knows more about this case and the merits of this case did the jury who sat here. Before the trial began, during its prosecut on, and since its close a Satanic press has shrieked and howled itself wild, like ravenous hyenas, for the blood of these eight workingmen. Now this subsidized press, in the pay of monopoly and of laborers and slavers, commanded this court and commanded this jury and this prosecution to convict us. As a fitting climax to this damnable conspiracy against our lives and liberty, what follows? Oh, hide your eye now I hide it! hide it! As a fitting climax to this damnable conspiracy against our lives and liberty some of Chicago's millionaires proposed to raise a purse of SlOo.OOO ; and present it to the jury for their verdict of guilty against us. This was done, as every­ body knows, in the last days of the trial, and since the verdict, so far as anybody knows to the contrary, this blood-money has been paid over to that jury. Besides, these jurymen since the end of the trial have been fated -- they have been wined, and dined, and .ban­ queted, and costly gifts have been bestowed upon them with a lavish hand by tbo enemy of human rights and human equality. O, shame, where is thy blush! O, virtue, bast thou fisd to brutish beasts 1 The jury was a packed one; the jury was composed of men to arrogate to Stem the right to dictate to and rob the wageworsers, whom they regarded as their hired men ; they are their inferiors and not gentlemen.

Leavitt is my stage name, and the name 1 commonly go by, but Herman Levy Is my real name. My home is in New York City, but I have been a resident of Sioux City sinee January, 1886, opening the Standard Theater in February, 1886, as proprietor and manager. I am 33 years old, and 1 have long been connected with theaters. I arrived in Sioux City from a visit East with my wife the Friday evening be­ fore the killing of George C. Haddock. Up to Monday morning I had no conversation with anyone in regard to the injunction proceed­ ings, but that morning I went to the Tribune office to see about putting an advertisement in tne paper about opening the theater, ana I or­ dered an advertisement. In conversation with Mr. Kelly and Mr. Hill I told them it was my intention of opening the place and running It without selling liquor, and I said to them that I believed I could make it pay. I had Joe Marks and Walter Strange come in and look at the place, and had about tbe same kind of talk with them, and told them I would not sell liquor. In the afternoon of Monday, Aug. 2, I was ap­ proached on the street by Mr. Simonson, and asked to join the Saloonkeepers' Association. He told me that the organization was for the purpose of protecting the saloonkeepers and employing a lawyer, and myself and Doc Dar­ lington and Dan Moriarty went to the meet­ ing in Holdenreid's hall that night about 8:30, and joined the association. My name was writ­ ten on tue iist by Fred Munchrath. I told him that as soon as it was necessary to use money to pay lawyers that I would pay the 825 fee, and that I could not pay until after ̂ should open my place. Adelsheim then said he did not know why Simonson had called this meet­ ing unless it was for the purpose of making Leavitt a member, and as this was accom­ plished he moved to adjourn. Louis Selzer sec­ onded the motion, and the meeting adjourned. On going out t ied Munchrath and Simonson said to me wait a minute, until the crowd goes down-stairs, as we have some more to talk over and we don't want to do so while people are around who do. not belong to the saloonkeepers. So Fred Munchrath, George Treiber, Simonson, Louis Plath, and another man, whose name I have forgotten, but whom I can identify, who runs a hotel in Sioux City, and I were the ones who remained after the meeting had adjourned. Georgo Treiber had whispered this thing about holding the meeting around to the members of the committee, an he said he had some mat­ ters to tell which were private and not for out­ siders. George Treiber said he had two men who would do anything to Walker if they got money for it Some one then said : "Junk has the money in his safe," and some one then said, "We will give 8100 to have Walk r licked good." It was then agreed that Treiber should get the men and go to the court house next day, and when Walker came out of the court-room they would whip him. I then said, "If you can't get these men I will ask Dan Moriarty to do it for 81OO." We then left the place. I thought no more of it till the next morning, when Munch­ rath came to me and said Treiber could not get the two men, that they were too drunk We then went down to the depot to see Moriarty, and ho refused to have anything to do with it. I supposed this was the end of it until Fred Munchrath and George Treiber came into the court house where I was standing at the stairs with Major McDonald They called me aside, and said Matt Cassman had two men that were going to leave town, and he would get them to do the job for SIO'J. I said, "Go on and bring the men up." Treiber told the fellows when they got there that it was all fixed with the policemen. I vent across the road and Bat down in front of Wescott's stable, talking to Tappan of the Lone Star Restaurant. Messrs. Walker and Wood came down the stairs and these two men followed behind. I did not try to keep it secret, but said openly that they were going to be licked, then Walker and Wood start­ ed on down toward the Hubbard House. As Wood and Walker passed them I stepped up to King and Waldevering and, pointing to Walker, 1 said, "That's him," and walked across the street. King and Waldevering got up and fol­ lowed them down to the Hubbard House. About 8 -15 Tuesday night, Aug. 3, in front of the Sioux National Bank, I met Fred Munch­ rath, George Treiber, Louis Plath, a saloon­ keeper whose namo l ean not recall, and those two Dutchmen whom Treiber said were the men he had to do up Walker. They were talk­ ing together and about Haddock and Turner going down to the Greenv ille House. Theiber said: "Let us take a hack and see what they are going to do." Muncnrath said: "Let us take a ride and go down to Greenville and see what they are going to do." I replied, "All right, 1 don't care." We went over in front of the Hubbard House, and Henry Habeman, Treiber, Plath and myself got into the back right under the electric light. I asked Adams, the driver of the hack, to let the windows down, which he did, and drove to the Greenville. Henry got out in front of the Greenville House; went in and asked if there had been a buggy over that way within the last hour. They said no. He got in and we came right hack to town. At Junk's saloon we stopped. On the outside were the two Dutch­ men who were hired by Treiber to whip Walker. Jolm Arensdorf cume out of the saloon with us, and these two Dutchmen said to him, but loud enough for us all to hear: "The buggy has come back." Arensdorf said: "Let us go over and see." We--that is, Arensdorf, Munchrath, Treiber, Plath, Henry, myself and the two Dutchmen--started to go toward the stable. I dropped behind. I met Harry Sherman and we followed on behind, and Lange, tho painter, was following us. I said to Sherman, "This will be another failure; they are all cowards; they have been going to do some slugging for two days and no one has been hurt yet." By that time w e had got close together and were talk­ ing, and Munchrath said : "If you or your men are going to lick Haddock, tell him not to punch too hard, but hit him in tho face once or twice and give him a black eye ; that will do, as we don't want to go any farther than that." Trei­ ber sill: "That is right; we only want to give one of them a whipping." In that conversation there were present John Arensdorf, Henry, the driver of the brewery de­ livery wagon, George Treiber, Louis Plath, Fred Munchrath, Harry Sherman, myself, the two Dutclim. n whose names are unknown to me, but the Bamo men Treiber had to whip Walker, and a saloonkeeper in Sioux City, whose name I cannot now call to mind, but whom I can identify. We saw Haddock coming across Water street from the Columbia House. No one said a word. John Arensdorf started to­ ward Haddock and came up in front of Had­ dock and looked him in the face, and threw up his hand in front of Haddock's face. Haddock pulled something from his pocket and struck Vrcns orf. I then saw Arensdorf draw his gun ml saw him shoot Haddock. I saw nothing more of Arensdorf, Henry, the driver, started toward Arensdorf before the Bhot was fired. We all left hurriedly after the shot was fired. Tho morning after the murder John Arens­ dorf came to me while I was standing in front of Warlich's saloon and said to mc, "How do you feel?" I said, "How do you feel ?" He did not answer, and said, "John, I think you did wrong." He said, "I thought Haddock was pulling a gun on me, and in the excitement I shot; that is how it happened." Then he asked how many had seen it. I said they might have nil seen it. He says, "Can I depend on you?" I rej»lied, "Certainly." During the dav I told Warlich and Junk who shot Haddock. They said the less said about it the better it will be. Afterwards I came on to Chicago and engaged in my legitimate business, to open at the Prin­ cess Theatre, Mobile, Ala. Hero Hill found me, as I had given him my address. I have made no concealment of my whereabouts, and have always been ready and willing to make the proper party a full and complete disclosure of ali my acts connected with the Haddock murder and the conspiracy to whip Walker whenever I could do so without receiving bodily injury and be legally protected in so doing. There is another matter I wish to refer to. About one week after the killing, John Arens­ dorf came to me in front of Warlich's saloon and said to me: "Henry, the driver of the wagon, knows all about this, and I am thinking of Bending him over into Nebraska to his home." I said you had better let him stay right here, you can't till how the thing is com­ ing out, and I won t have it that way. I was in the court-room Saturday, July 31, and Monday and Tuesday afternoons at the Court House. Munchrath said that he had just bepn to Junk and got the money and gave it to Cormeny. He said this in the presence of King, and Waldev- ring agreed to do it. and we separated. Munch­ rath afterward gave me a note to Cormsny to get I5J. I borrowed it. All Sorts.

WII Henry Fetora Murdered ? •̂-Additional Exposures and Disclosure* lfcles of People Who Heard Strange Seises and Brawling If ; the Brewery, ft,-,:; • jKfV:' [Sioux City (Iowa) special.} - Public feeling is crystallizin^ iSgaiMt John Arensdorf, who is accused of having murdered the Be v. George C. Haddock. The exposures respecting the mysterious disappearance of Henry Peters, tt\e brew­ ery driver who participated in the conspira­ cy, and-the sensational suspicion of the neighbors that he was killed to insure his silence, made a profound impression to­ day. These facts had never been pub­ lished, and they set the community to thinking. Now the alnvoBt universal ver­ dict outside of the saloon element is that Arensdorf will have great difficulty in se­ curing an acquittal unless he turnB up the missing man. Of the two men who were seen running across the bridge toward the brewery after Dr. Haddock fell Peters was certainly one. "Was Arensdorf the other?" everybody is now asking, and inasmuch as Peters' absence can only be explained by the brewery peo­ ple. and is not, the answers can be sur­ mised. Arensdorf says of the disappearance of Peters: "Peters had been talking about leaving for some time. When the injunc­ tion business commenced he made up his mind he would be out of a job here and would quit and get a job somewhere elBe. I had no fuss with him. One Saturday, about Aug. 20, I think, I spoke to him about the horses' shoulders being sore. I told him that the team had never had sore shoulders before, and that a man who claimed to know as much as he did about horses should attend to them. He did not say anything, but went to the office and said he wanted his money. He got it and went aw^y. Mrs. Sarah Wallace, who lives opposite the brewery, says: "It was the evening of Aug. 23. I know that was the date De- cause I wrote it down next morning. It was a hot night, and I got up and sat by the open window of the front room up-stairs. A little after the clock struck 10 I heard two men talking loud in the brewery. They seemed to be quarreling and made a noise like a lot of dogs. From the noise they seemed to come together, and then one of them said 'Oh!' twice so i md one might have heard him as far off as Pearl street. Then I heard groans that sounded fainter and fainter. After all was quiet three men came out of the east door and walked tow­ ard the street. They were talking, und one of them stepped on a little dog, and the dog ran away yelping. The men walked back into the brewery and called the dog in." Mrs. Wallace says that the next morning she spoke to Mrs. Van Dugan about the noises in the brewery, and that Mrs. Van Dugan, who then lived next door, said that she and her husband had heard them. Joseph Taylor, a next-door neighbor of Mrs. Wallace, says: "I can't tell the date. It was quite a while after the Haddock murder. I was awakened by a noise. I at first thought it was a charivari party. I went out, and the noise had quieted. I heard two groans. They seemed to come from the brewery. I listened a while, and, not hearing any more, I went in and went to bed. The next day M». Wallace told me what she had heard." Mr. Taylor said that the evening before he heard the groans he saw Henry standing on the beer wagon at the east door. He seemed to be quarreling with some one in­ side, all of them talking loud. That was the last time he saw Henry. At a late hour to-night it was reported that Davenport was Peters' home, and that he could be found. Albert Kaschniski, alias "Bismarck," makes the positive statement that he was hired, and the money paid him, "to do up Haddock." He went down onto Water street for that purpose, intending to catch Haddock as he came from the livery stable. He further says that he stood be­ hind a pile of posts, in waiting for Had­ dock, when the fatal shot was fired; that he saw the man who fired the shot, and knows him personally. He has told the officers who committed the murder. It is almost certain that the testimony of this man will involve a man other than John Arensdorf as the murderer, but this remains to be seen. The statement is made that a trav­ eling man, a stranger in Sioux City, was near the Columbia House at the time the shooting took place, and saw the shot lired. He did not know the man who fired the shot, but has pointed out John Arensdorf to the State's Attorney as the man. NEW MINISTER TO MEXICO. Judge Thomas Court land Manning, of Louisiana. Thomas C. Manning, the new Minister to Mexico, is about 55 years of age. He was born in North Carolina. In 1855 he moved to the town of Alexandria, La., as a lawyer. He waB a member of the State Constitutional Convention in 18G1, which voted the Pelican State out of the Union. This meant war, and he immediately enlist­ ed, and rose to be Adjutant General of the Swept fay Wind and Flood, K# . ; Trace Is Left of Sabift# . • -,/* 'k Pass.

In 1877 he was appointed Chief Justice of the State of Louisiana. In October last Judge Manning brought to President Cleveland the official notifi­ cation of the latter's election as a trustee of the Peabody lund, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of General Grant. After Judge Manning had completed his interview with the President and Cabinet, the President remarked to Secretary Bay­ ard, "That man ought to be in the public service," and on the first opportunity--that offered by the resiguatit n of Minister Jaokson--he has appointed him. The Two Sams In Toronto. The Rev. Messrs. Sam Jones and Sam Small will conduct four services daily for the next ten days, says a Toronto dispatch. Attendance at their meetings continues as large as ever. A controveiey is going on in the newspapers with regard to fcam Jones' methods. It was commenced by the Rev. Canon Warrell of Oakville denouncing his methods as irreligious, characterizing him as a vulgar joker, and thr- at ning to with­ draw his subscription from (he Mail if his sermons were published. Down in front--the dude's :w;'Xv # * [Galveston (Texas) dispatch.] Details of the destruction by the recent storm at Sabine Pass come in slowly, though they all agree that there has been great loss of life and property. The waters began to invade the town from the golf and the lake together about 2 o'clock, and rose with unprecedented rapidity. Citizens of the doomed place did not realize the im­ minent danger until it waB too late to es­ cape, when safety by flight was ont of tlt§» question. The water kept rising, and be* tween 3 and 4 o'clock the smaller houses began to yield to the resistless force o the waves, and not only moved from their foundations but turned on their sides and tops. A little later the large houses began to give way, and death by drowning Beemed inevitable for every citizen of the place. With the yielding of the smaller houses several pet- . sons who had remained in them were - drowned, and when residences and busi­ ness places began to crumble the fatally V began to double. Ths following ineom- w plete list of the drowned was obtained: Miss Mahala, Jim Vondy and family dif " six, Mrs. Otto Brown and* two children, Homer King, wife, and child; Mrs. Junker and son, Mrs. Pomeroy and family of five, Mrs. Stewart, daughter, and son; Wil- : eon, Mrs. Arthur McReynolds, Mrs. Mc­ Donald and daughter, Frank Mulligan and family, Columbus Martee and family. H. About twenty-five colored people, whose names could not be learned, were alio. v drowned. This list comprises over sixty squls, -mong them some of the leading families of the place. There are many others, and it is feared that whole families in different parts of the place have been swept away without leaving a person or vestige to indicate their honible fate. It is said that the situation during the latter ' part of the afternoon beggars description-- the manifestation of terror and agony people looking death in the face and real­ izing that there was no escape, the dviitf cries of women rendered almost inaudible by the roar of the sea, the hoarse voice of pallid men trying to save those dear to them, all combined, made a scene too hor­ rible to be described. The damage to property at Sabine iB very s great. The wharf property of the town wii . owned by New York capitalists who also own the adjoining lands and were aiming to make Sabine Pass au important port on the Gulf coast. The citizens of Beaumorit, on receipt of the news, immediately made preparations for relief. The East Texas Railroad placed an engine at their disposal and a party of men have gone to Orange !# piocure boats and start for the scene. ^ v.. Another dispatch says the damage doije1 bv the storm at Beaumont is also consider­ able, a number of houses being blown down and many of the principal lumber mills damaged. The track of the East Texas and Sabine Railway is washed away for miles in a numb.r of places, besides dam­ age b ing done to bridges an:l depots. . According to the most experienced nav|# X gators on this coast, it was Lake Sabine' which destroyed the town, which lies only four feet above mean low water, and is bounded on the west by a great swamp. The hurricane of last Sunday in the Wei^t Indies blew the waters with great vi#?r lence toward the Texas coast. This hurri­ cane wave was first noticed on this coast Oil Sunday morning, attaining its maximum on Tuesday afternoon, and was maintained at a high point by the impetus of the waters behind. The burricane itself did not reach these coasts at all, as scarcely a breath of wind was stirring when the tidal wave first touched the coast. When its maximum was reached on Tuesday afternoon, how­ ever, a fierce northwestern gale sprang itp along the whole coast, and at Sabine this gale blew the waters out of Lake Sabine and drove them toward the gulf, where the lake waters were met by the great swell caused by the hurricane. This resulted in driving the lake waters over onto the little town, and submerging the country for ten miles around without a moment's notice. This account of tbe disaster is confirmed by our experience here with the same gale^ \ and all information from Sabine also co%!"U- firms the above theory. 5 An Orange (Tex.) special says: Twli brothers named Pomeroy wer j picked u$ by the sfhooncr Andrew Badin in Sabine Lake. They had been in the water thirty- six: hours clinging to their capsized yawl#. Their mother and sister, and Mrs. Capt, Junker, her son, and a little girl of the party were lost. The Pomeroys report ». that fifty lives were lost at the Porter House, where the people hid collected aS the best place of safety. It went to piece* at o'clock. Many persons are missing. ^ A Lake Charles (La.) special says: TIS& loss ot' property along the Cameron Parish gulf coast aud* for some distance west of Sabine Pass by the storm of Tuesday niyht was fearful. The niailboit from Cameron Parish reports that the water at Calcasieu Pass was eight feet deep at the lighthouse, and that the entire countiy east and west was submerged Tuesday night, drowning thousands of cattle ana ruining crops. No lives were lost at Laes- burg or Calcasieu Pass, but the following axe reported lost at Johnson's Bayou, La.: Albert Lambert and family; Marion Lukes and family; George Striever and family; L. Charles Blanchet and family; Eailfom Grey and family; Franesware aud family; Franesware and family. Be­ sides many others whose names have not been acertamed. Sabine Pass is situated at the southeast corner of Texas, in Jefferson County, upon a narrow strip of water also called Sabiner^ Pass, less than two miles in lenytli, through ^ which-the waters of Sabine Lake empty in­ to the Gulf of Mexico. The lake, whioh is about fourteen milts long and ten miles wide, forms a reservoir into wh'ch the rivers Nechcs and Sabine flow. The town of Sabine Pass is tl e terminal point of the Sabine Jt East Texas Railway, now a part of the Southern Pacific system, sinee the completion of which two years ago it , has increased from the three or four hun­ dred inhabitants it had in 1881) to about" three times that number. Sabine Pass has obtained considerable notoriety on account of its harb r, whioh has been frequently recornmende l by Gov­ ernment engineers as the be t in natural advantages west of New Orleans. Upon these reports large sums have been ap­ propriated for improvements at that point, ana a jetty system upon :he Ead* plan has been in course of construction for the last three years. Historically, Sabine Pass is noted as the rendezvous of the pirate Lafitte in the early days of Texas, and for the sinking OT the Union gunboat Clinton, in 1863, by less than a score of rebels, under command ot the notorious Dick Dowling.
