The Bristol City line steamer Ex- ewr City, which arrived at New York on Tuesday morning from Bristol and Swansea. on November 24th. fell In with the British schooner Elite. dis.. mastod and in a sinking condition and rmcued the crew of five men and brought them safely to port.

The leak necessitated i the constant. working of the pumps. and Lthe crew were man worn out with i, work and “posture. The supply of pro- ;visiom had almost run out, and the I little new suffered greatly from lack ' of food. On November 18th the British steamer Roesmore. from Liverpool, for l Baltimore. fell in with the schooner. A ', heavy story was raging. and it was in- (possible to launch a lifeboat. but the [Roesmore succeeded in throwing some IfOOd by means of a line.

Fortunately, on Wedneechy. the 24th. the steamer Enter City.-from Bristol, for New York, observed the sinking vessel's diam-eel sitrrttrls. She bore down and rescued the crew of fiver men.

The gale which swept. the English coasts on Sunday, doing mueh" damage at Holyhead and other places. raged all night long and had not abated in fury on Monday morning, when it amount- ed almost to a cyclone in many places and. was accompanied by snow and hail. A long list of fatalities, wrecks and damage to property has already been received. All the coast towns have euffered and a score of bodies have been washed ashore. Falling wells and flying debris have added to the loss of life. Vessels are reported ashore on every part. of the coast. and many ships are known to have foundered. with the probable loss of all hands. There in much wreckage about the Goodwin Sands. At Lowestoft, Yurmouth and else- where the sea. has flooded the quays and neighborhoods, washing away the espIanades and doing other seri- ous damage. The seawall at Scar- borough has been washed away. and the passenger and mail servives across the channel have been for the most part suspended. The latest reports from various points along the coast show that the gale which swept English waters, was one of the worst storms of recent years. In many places it was almost cyclonic in its violence, and the long list of disasters includes a LARGE LOSS OF LIFE, l many wrecks of large vessels, and the loss of scores. it not hundreds, of smaller craft, with serious damage to property ashore. at many important towns. In the north the wind was accompanied by blinding snow and hail that hid the lights and immensely in- creased the difficulties of navigation. Many ships are known to have found- ered, in most cases, it is feared, with all on board. Scarcely a. town on the coast has escaped without more or less in- jury, falling walls and flying debris adding to the loss of life. There have been rockets and lifeboat rescues al- most without number. Storiesof thrill- ing ffcaP!f come. fryn RII‘POiPts.

Wan, ary --Tweus-tive men arrived here on Saturday, on the City of Seattle, direct from Dawson City. They were divided into two parties, the last one of which left Dawson City, Oct. 16. They came out over the Dalton trail. They are reported to have among them sixty thousand dollars in drafts and two hundred thousand dollars in gold dust. All tell stories of . food short- age in Dawson that is almost a a.. mine. The last person to leave Dawson was Jack Dalton. Wheo Dalton left the steamer Alice and Bella had reach- ed there loaded lightly. It is said that the Bella's cargo consisted of whiskey and billiard balls. She brought no provisions. The Canadian Govern- ment mounted police chartered the Bella and gave all who wished a free passage to the Yukon. The Bella is reported to have left about Oct. 12 with 200 men. According to the state- ments made Mr members of the Dalton party, there is liable to be trouble of the most serious kind this winter in Dawson. Billy Leak told one of the men in the, party ahead of him whom he met at Dyes. that all the people talk about at Dawson is! the food fem- ine. Men were gathering in groups and cursing with might and main the new comers who were constantly er- riving in the Klondike loaded with scarcely any provisions. THE MOUNTED POLICE, were offering free transportation to the grub placers further down the Yukon to Fort Yukon, but to the countless hundreds who had labored hard all through the summer accumu- lating a grub stake the prospen-t was uninviting to say the least. The men figured that it. would take all their earnings in gold to pay their living expenses at Fort Yukon during the Winter. and that in the spring they would noteven have enough left to pay passage monpyhack to DaWson, to say nothing of purchasing enough food to subsist on until they could get started again. To these poor fellows the offer of the mounted police was no better than the prospect at Dawson of being a distance of 400 miles. There is no food at Fort Yukon, there is none at Dawson, and just as sure as the stars shine terrible suffering will be the fate of the Dawson miner unless he leaves there before spring. I will make the statement that when I left Daw- son the men who were there had on an average four months' supply. Some did not have amonth's supply and some had four or five. The restau- rant closed the night Ileft. It, had been selling nothing but beefsteak,for which the hungry paid 82.50. Dluovrry of New Gold Fields of Great Value.

Shortly i' after nine o'clock a molt attacked a cartridge fnctory at Zizhkow. a sulp- urh of Prague. The troop: stationed at the fecfory poured a volley into the, crowd. It is known thall at least two persons were killed outright, and it is feared that others were killed or wounded. The. same body of rinters net fire to a, house at Zizhkow, but the flames were soon quenched. In various other parts of the city and the suburbs windows were emashed and German' signhoards demolished. It is said that the mob was incited by articles in the T Czech newspapers Ind by afalse report 1 that the German students had organx ‘ ized an attack upon the Czech National l Theatre. At n late hour threatening [ crowds made repented rushes and at» , temptsto storm the Germ-n newspaper l _ offices. but by 11 o'cloek the town was' I quieter, end the troupe had been with-l drawn. except patrols at threatened points.

He then arrested the I man, and the result ofi this energeticf action we: the dispersal of the mobi l without much further difficulty. ( As a. result of tho riots and disorders l of the last 24 hours. the authorities have proclaimed the city under martial law. The Chief of Police. who is 3 Czech, was discovered encouraging riot- ers. and has been suspended from office. It is now known that, the number of injured Germans reached 800. They are being cared for at. the various hos- pitals. The disturbances have amount- ed to s rebellion. Thousands of Cze- chish miners streamed into Prague this , evening from the surrounding villagesl to assist the rioters. The scientific in- struments in the German University and High School hove been destroyed and valuable archives. preserved for a long time at the Kinsky Palace. the largest in the Alstadt, have been burn- ed. Two special sufferers from the riots are Baron Von Achrenthal, a re- prearonttrtiare of the German landown- 1ers in the iteic.hurattx, and. Count von era in the Reichsrath. and Count Von Salm.
