Tho Possibility of Troublesome 1 Relations with Cuba, | Pomeroy -Wants the Senatorship Vacated by Caldwell, { The Senate Committes Inves- tigating the Postal-Car & § < Service. - Postmaster-General Creswell the Baltimore * Amcrican,”® Special Dl‘apfm:h to The Chicago Tribune, CUBAN RELATIONS. Wasarsorow, D. C., April 9.—Fears aro outor- tained here that a chango of policy is about to take place -among tho Spanish volanteers in erable troubls. For somo time past tho volun- toers have had the virtnel management and di- rection of affairs in Cuba. This was_especially 80 under tho monarchy, with which the volun- teors were closely alliod: * It is well known that . they have 1o adiiration for thé Spanish Repub- lic, and that thoy rogard the United - Btates with peculiar aversion. There is a report that the volunteers.ara maturing plans for taking posses- sion of the island, and -wresting ‘it from Spain. In case of any revolution of this kind, it is bo-, lioved that liftle respect would be shown for either tho lives or the property of American citizens. The volunteors would murder and confiscate at will. Thoy would not regard them- selves ae bound by the treatics now existing be- tween the Unitod States and Spain, and especially those_relating to the Spnn& Amorica. In view .of such a contingency, the Administration will- probably strengthen’ our _naval forco in Cuban waters, and adopt such measures 23 will insure protection to the lives and property of American citizens in Cuba. TILE KANSAS SENATORSHIP. Tt is asserted that Pomeroy is working assidu- ously to succoed Caldwell in the Benate. He ‘hns gont his paid agents alroady out into Kansas 0 work up hus chances. Kansas politicians con- -cede, howover, that whoever is slectod by Gov. Osborno for the temporary successor, will suc- make a choice. Caldwell has announced that he has abandoned politics forever, and that hereafter he will devote ‘himsgelf to commercial pursuits. TIHE BALTCIORE SUBVETORSHIP. Pos tmaster-Goneral . Croswell has shown his strength with the Prosident by having the faith- {ful Fulton femoved from the Surveyorship of the Port at Baltimore, ‘This i8 the last Fedoral intrenchment occupied by this once powerful family, four brothers of which have done the Republic some service in civic positions sinéo 1860. The principle rolied upon by the Fultons was Civil Service roform, added to the fact that they wore editors of the powerful Administration organ of Baltimore. Against such a declaration as this, Creswell brought the argument that, during the last campaign and before the Phila~ delplua Convention, the Fultons were oxtremely chary in regard to their advocacy of Grant, and only came around to his support after the "over- whelming unznimity of his second nominatios and the absoluto assurance that Grecley coul not be elected. All other considerations gave way to this latter presentation of the case, and the Creawellites to-day have beon celebrating their last and groatest victory. Charles Gilpin, the succeesor to Fulton, is not a native of Mary- Iand, and the only quality which he has to racom- mend Lim is his faithful dovotion to the fortunes of Caldwell. * [To the Assoctated Press.] APPOINTMENTS.

New York, April 9.—The Senate Committee henrd to-day the continuation of the arguments in reference to the postal-car questicn. President Hinckloy, of the Philadclphin & Baltimore Road, rend extracts from the annual reports, showing the small profits resulting to the Company from the earnings o{eflrryin% the mails. B Preeident Harris, of Road, stated that his Company roceived $12,900 Trom tho express per year, and if they were paid accordingly for the mails, they would get $45,- 950 yearly. As it is, they only get 810 for tho round trip, by a 21-foot car with two messengers. If the latter paid their fare, it would cost them 8. A 3fr. Hinckloy, ‘resuming, rend documents to show the inequality of postal remuneration. His own Company Treceived 62 cents ‘per milo for a 80-foot car on the Baltimore Central Branch, while on the Delaware Branch they only received 14 cents per mile for thirty- Aeet cars. The mails were carried in the same class of cars on both pranches. The Committeo then adjourned till to-morrow, when Mr. Davis partment. FIRES. Destruction of the McKcesport, Pa., Tube Works=-0ne Lifc Lost—Im= mense Korest Fires in Virginiae- Great Loss of Farm and Eailroad Property. Special Digpatch to The Chicago Tribune. Prrrssuson, April 9.—Rumors were current throughout he city, this evening, of a disastrous conflagration at McKeesport, Pa., involving an immense loss of life. and property. Later re- ports indicate . that the loss of property was heavy, but that the number of lives lost was greatly exaggorated. 7 ‘About 5 o'clock thisevening the trestle bridges supporting some twenty fect of the Toof of tho Rational Tube Works gave way with a loud re- sreaking the gas conductor leading from oy hi;,gd\i:un £ the furnaces. . The gie nited, set fire to the mills and adjacent build- 'and in & few minutcs all were wiapped in i’éfif{ sheets of flamo. Over 200men were work- ing under the.roof when it fell, and it was first jposed that many of ‘theso had erished, s the main channels of egross had n cut off by a bnrnfin mn?l of 5: ;ga:rgtt fortunately a portion of the wall on i tho mill waa thrown down, snd through this the laborers were ensbled to paes, and thus escapo what_ otherwise must mecessarily have beena spcedy and most horrible death. A number of workmen. received severe injuries from falling timbers, though only in one case did the injuries prove fatal. 0 connection of the water works ras broken the {falling roof, thus rendering the hose useless. The. works were the largeat of the kind in the country, and were ovwned and conducted by Boston capitalists. The total loss is estimated at £200,000; insurance, $190,000. gration is raging on all sides of this e.

More Bodics from the Wreck, Thirty-five survivors of the Atlantic disaster arrived in Chicago at an. early hour yesterday morning, by way of the Lako Shore & Michigan Southern Railrozd. They.came in charge of Mr. Oscar Lagergren, an attache of tho Wkite Star Line officos in this city. The names and na- tionalities of those composing the party are as follows : 25 i Stcediah—Olaf Ericson, Olaf Anderson, O, Svengron, Nils Peterson, Johan Nelson, Julius Sveneon, Yoior Johnson, Andreas Bengston, Sven Bengston.

Hirrison, W, Yagman, BcNGtr, Patrick Moo, Thomas Prait. oo JIrish—John Lyons. H ® German—August Schaure, The travelers were conveyed in omnibuses from the depot to the Hotel Denmark, on Afil- waukee avenue; the SBvea Hotel, on Chicago avenue, near Bremer streot, and other taverns of lesgor note among the Scandinavian national- ities, whero they wore treated to comfortable |. breakfasts and furnished. with beds . whereon to siretch their weary bodies. Theso arrangements were made by Mr. Lagergren, local agent of tho White Star Line, and . Mlr. Johnson, pursuant to the instructions of Mr. Sparks, the New York | sgent. Tho steamship company bears all the reasonable e:&amml incufred by the emigrants until they reach their ultimate destinations. About ‘noon, Messrs, H. F. Jonnison, of the ftlé:abls Life Assurance Company; August ohnson, importer ; Franz Henckel, of the firm ' of Bpencer & Henckel ; and Fred L. Fake, roal estate dealer—the Committee of charitable gen- tlemen which went to work a:few days ago to colloct money for the relief of the sufferers—ro- ported to the agent of the stcamship company that they had socured s little over 2,000, and were prepared to distribute the money at any time and place that might be appointed. The Aurors er Hall, on” Milwaukeo ave- nue, was selected, and_thither the Committes repaired. In ashort time the survivors made their ng&l:lnmce in the hall, nnder the guidance of the White Star Line peopls and some of the officers of the Society Dania, the sale Scandinavian organization of the city. The emi- grants looked worn and sad, and nearly all of them were very thinly dressed. - After a brief’ consultation with the officers of the Whito Star Line and the Society Dania, dar- ing which it was ascertained that another and Targer party of survivors is ted herein a short time, the Committes decided to give each man $20, and take his receipt therefor, and re- tain the balance for the others. The roll of names was then called out by Mr. Laiergmn. and the distribution commenced. Before it endod, a Bwede arose and in his native tongue publicly ed the donors for their charity. Ho said that the emigrants were _hospitably received avflmhue alon; tho line from Halifax to Chicago, an were treated with the untmost consideration. The mnmhe.x of the disaster, and of the charity ‘which it evoked, would remain green in their minds forever. Remarks of a similar nature were made bya young Englishman, At the closo of the distribution, the Committee adjourned, and the emigrants, bappy in the pos- session of $20, which would have been con- sidered a fortuno by many of them even in their more orous days, went to their stopping- places. Tho majority of them will %mlnbr pro- ceed West to-day or to-morrow. John Lyoms, the Irish boy, to Utics, in_this State; the Danes go to Chebanse, on the Illinois Central Road, whore there is colony of that nationality ; two or three of the Englishmen go to Milwan- k_tze ; a0 about the same number remain in the city. ¢ ‘The stories of the great disaster told by these emigrants are merely repetitions of those which bave appeared in the columns of Tue TRIBUNE. It 18 the same horrible talo over again, of & thounsand persons taken unawares and plunged st tho_dead hour of night into a tempestuous ses. Robert Wood, whose name appears firat under tho head of Englishmen, & man of con- sidersble intelligence, and a sailor, relates his experience of the dreadful night at considerable length. He was one of the last persons taken from the rigging, and was almost frozen when roecued. The Captain could not be accused of anything after the accident happened ; ho acted with great bravery, and gave his orders with as much coolness and deliberation as if he stood on the deck of & sound steamer. Ar. Brady, the Third Officer, was highly spoken of. Had the people taken things more quietly, a far greater number could have been saved. They used to crowd on the line reaching to the and drag it under the water, g0 that many of those struggling across were swept off the witd waves. Though he did not desire to blame Capt. Williams, he believed that he was rash and over- confidont. He should have kept off shore until daylight, and then Halifax harbor could be made without difficulty or danger. His knowledge of the coast—the most dangerous on tho whole North American line—appeared to be dofective. Afr. Wood will remain in the city for the pres- nt. 1t is understood that the Relief and Aid Bociety. has intimated its ‘willingness to assist the ship- wreckod F”,E‘“- if there should be any necessity therefor. 0 Society Danis and some Gorman societies are engaged in raising contribations. A movement has becn set on foot for thio pur- chase of two testimonial watches for Mr. Brady and the fisherman who assisted him in securin a line from tho sinking vessel to a rock.
