The Town of Savoy, Texas, Devastated by a Terrible Cyclone. Nine Persons Killed Outright and Sixty More or Less Injured. PLAYING WITH PETROLEUM. ‘Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, PHILADELPHIA, May 29.—A terrible accl- dent occurred this morning on the British brig Sapphire, lying at the wharf in this city. One of the crew thrust a red-hot poker into the bunghole of a coal-cil barrel, caus- ing an explosion which set fire to the cook’s galley, drove overboard and drowned three of the crew in their frenzy, and burned two others so horribly that they were in an ap- parently dying condition when taken to the hospital. The Sapphire is a magnificent new vessel, commanded by Capt. William Boag, who is one of the Commission appoint- ed by the British Government that investigat- edthe Lady.Oclavia and Champion collision. The Sapphire had just completed discharg- ing a cargo of railroad tron trom Antwerp. About 11 o’clock yesterday morning the cook, James Lewis, was getting dinner ready. The Captain was in his. cabin, the first mate on deck, and the second mate, Jotm Vincent, a seaman named Richard Mendricks, and two apprentice boys, John Barber and George Chapman, walked into the galley to take their meal. The food was not prepared, and they seem to have entered the oil-room ad- joining, where several barrels of paint, oil, kerosene, and benzine were kept. Some of the party began cutting up pranks as sailors will. Vincent is said to have run a red-hot poker, which he had heated at the galley stove, into a barrel, with, the intention, apparently, to scare the others, orto enlarge the bung-hole. ‘There was an instantaneous, frightful report, The barrel burst into a mass of flames, which ex- ploded another barrel, blew down the par- tition, set fire to the woodwork, and, worst of all enveloped all the human beings in the galley. Vincent ran upon the deck first, screaming with pain. He stepped a mo- ment to tear away his clothing and then fell to the deck while trying to cover himself with a piece of sail. He was closely followed by the cook, Lewis, who jumped into the water. The seaman, Hendrit and the apprentice boys Barber and Chapman, who were all in flames, tumbled into the stream and sank-almost in- stantly tothe bottom. The Captain and first mate ran tothe galley and found the place in flanies, which looked as though it would consume the vessel. They hurried upon the deck, and an alarm was sounded for the Fire Department, Vincent was found, and his blazing clothes torn off and canvas thrown over him to keep the air away from his wounds. The smoke which poured forth from thoy vessel attracted a crowd of seamen trom other vessels and idle men, who, however, were unable to render any assistance in the work of extingulehing the flames. This was accomplished y the firemen, but not before the. fe ley, the oil-room, and carpenter-shop had been badly damaged, as also & portion of the rigging. Lewis’ bums were about the face, neck, back, and legs. Nearly every particle of the blackened cuticle came off | Vincent when the physicians removed the few rags of charred clothing adhering to him. On the abdomen it was blistered frightfully. The crew, wio had escaped the horrible fate of their shipmates, went to work with grappling-irons to re- cover the bodies of those who had sprung overboard. Hendricks’ corpse was tlie first brought to the surface. naustating sight, The hair was gong, and the body ‘was denuded of the cuticle. Fif- teen minutes afterwards Chapman’s body was drawn up. It was in the same condi- tion as Hendricks’, In his right hand was clutched a piece of his shirt, which he had torn off in his agony. It was half-past 3 o’clock before the grap- plings caught young Barber's dead body. It was impossible to get any statement of the occurrence from Lewis and Vincent, the living spectators of the tragedy, as the physi- cians forbid any communication with them, owing to the critical nature of their wounds. TERRIBLE CYCLONE. GALVESTON, May 29.—A Mews special from Bonham says: A terriblecyclone visited Savoy, on the Texas Pacific Railroad, last night, totally destroying the town and killh nine persons and wounding sixty, some of whom will die.

On the arrival of the Chief of Police, the Moderator, Dr. McLeod, said an explanation was due the Synod, He regretted exceedingly to have been required to pursue such a course. While the Synod had entire confidence in the good men of the Church, it was evident from the proceedings yesterday and to-day that drunken and irre- sponsible persons had appeared in the church. .

It states that 140 out of 180 Presbyteries have sent in reports. They show a less num- ber of revivals than previous years, yet the increase tothe churehes has been a steady and healthy wth. The aid received by women is alluded to with commendation. Overtures were adopted strongly condemn- ing the reading of secular papers on the Sab- bath; the investment of capital in business requiring to be carried on on the Sabbath; against the use and sale of intoxicating ligq- uors; against the use of the mails to trans- port lottery-tickets; and asking the Govern- ment to eradicate Mormonism from the United States. i A meeting of the Women’s Foreign Mis- sionary Society was held in the Presbyterian Church to-day, at which interesting ad- dresses were made, by several prominent ersons, among others, Mrs. S, C._ Perkins, President of the Society, and Mrs. Hoge.

The General Committee of Missions is to meet in Steubenvilie, 0. ‘The matter of commissions oceupied a con- siderable portion of the day. Opinion was much divided. The point under discussion was embraced in the following resolution: “That according to our law the General Assembly alone is authorized to appoint a Judical Commission, and that only for the adjudication of appenis in éases of discipline.” The matter was set- tled for the time by referring the whole sub- ject to the Presbyteries, with instructions to report next year. ‘hree thousand dollars was appropriated to the Board of Ministerial Relief for the year, and $5,000 more for increasing the en- dowment.

Flurry in the New York Grain Mare ket Yesterday. Spectal Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune. New York, May 29.—The corner in No. 2 red wheat culminated to-day, which was set- tling day on the Produce Exchange. So skill- fully was the corner manipulated that the ad- vanced prices were sustained up to the last moment, and many of the shorts, anticipating the necessity of making actual deliveries, settled their contracts privately Friday aft- ernoon and early this morning at from $1.42 to $1.45 per bushel, chiefly at the higher rate. Others laid under contribution all the wheat of the grade that could be found within reach. Quantities were purchased by telegraph in Philadelphia and Balti- more, and special fast propellers were hired to pull down the river all that could be hurried through the canal. This nearly all arrived in ample time to make deliveries. There were still, however, a large number of persons in the lurch, At the call No. 2 red spot wheat opened at $1.43 and sold up as high as $1.46, while May averaged $1.453;.. The closing quotution for both was $1.45 bid. June, July, and August options were weaker, and very litile in- terest was manifested in them. After the call No. 3 red for May sold in settlement at $1.39 to $1.42. and spot at b $1.40 to $1.42 in car-lots accumulated to make Following the second call the eager sellers 35, t delivery. market was filled with of No. 2 red at the _ bes! bid_ being to $1.30,—six or seven ear-loads were placed at $1.32 to $1.33,— chieily the latter. ‘Thus ended the corner. It was impossible to learn the total amount of losses, as there were no defaults other than those- mentioned, and no one was seriously hurt. | It came out, however, that, among the shorts were a number of firms who have heretofore been identified exclusively with the export interest, and the revelation caused a good deal of comment. No. 1 white, which seemed about to take the place of No. 2 red, weakened throughout the list from 3¢ to 1eent cent, Spring-wheat was heavy and irregu- lar. No interest was taken ‘in options, and there was only.a very moderate demand for prompt delivery for export. There was a twist in spot corn, which was_ad- yanced 144 to 2 cents a bushel from the close on Friday and the market left oft unsettled. Options were very much less active. The visible supply of | wheat showed a decrease of 750,000 bushels as compared with Jast week, while that of corn increased 1,054,000 bushels, The exports from this port during the week have been unusually large. They were: Wheat, 1,467,000 bushels; corn, 1,290,- 000 Bnshels rye, 120,000 bushels; flour 29,000 barrels. ‘the Synod for the long hearing of aes will make no further move here.

The Haverly Mining Exchange. ‘The experience of the past year has proven that mining as a business is safer and more profitable than any other kind of commercial or industrial enterprise. The bullion product of the West continues to increase, and the pioneer investors in the great mines of Colo- rado are reaping the reward of their prudent investments. Purchases of mines or of mining stocks, if carefully and judiciously nade, Will always yield as good, if not better, returns than if the same money were put into railroad, city, or Government securities. The Haverly Mining Exchange was estab- lished for the purpose of securing property on which to base reliable mining companies. It is the only institution of the kind in the ‘West, and is the largest in the United States. Having plenty of capital, experience, and the best of connections East and West, there isevery reason for the investing public to have confidence in this institution. While Mr. J. i. Haverly necessarily leaves the de- tails of management to his associates, he ives his peraorial supervision to the work- ings of the Exchange, and uses his best efforts to advance the interests of its patrons. For the past month he has been in Colorado per- sonally inspecting the property of the various companies in which he is interested and investigating the meritsof the new mines which are offered to the Exchange. He has with hima corps of. competent enginee: who render him material aid in this investi- gation. z Among the standard mining companies al- ready organized by the Exchange are the Chicago & Silver Cliff, the Silver Thread, and the J. H. Hayerly Golden Group Mining Com- panies, A limited amount of the develop- ment stock of each of these companies is of- fered for sale at the Exchange at bed-rock prices and in quantities to suit, Purchasers of these stocks will secure the best ever offered.

A St. Paul delegate, who was a Captain in a Minnesota regiment, and who was badly wounded at Chickamau recognized in a delegate from Louisiana the Confederate Lieutenant who carried him from the field and secured for him the medical attendance which saved his life. Themeeting took place at the pianu warervonis of W. W. Kimball, where both the gentlemen had called, with a number of their friends, to in- spect the new stock of Hallet, Davis & Co,’s planos just received from Boston. The meeting was a very pleasant one, as the Min- nesota Captain, who is now a wealthy bank- er, had made many unsuccessful attempts to find hig preserver, and one of the finest of the splendid new uprights, which was for- warded to New Orleans yesterday, showed that the gentleman from St Paul had not forgotten the debt of ratitude.

From the Hon. William Taylor, State Senator of Massa- chusetts. Messrs. Werks & Porren—Gentlemen: To say that Iam grateful is only a. poor expression of my feelings, but it is the best word I cau use, for I'feel it in every sense of the word. Ihave beon a great sufferer with skin disenses for the last twelve (12) years. My hend and face being covered with sores,1 could not rest with the burning heat and itching of the parts affected, and was confined to my house for_weeks at 1 time. My disease has been called Eczema, of a most aggravated type, by many physicians, but I doubt if ever fully understood by any of them. It was more like a combination of several skin humors. Ihave spent much money secking a cure, and in 1867 I went ta Europe and consulted some of the best physicians in London. I re- ceived temporary relict ony. forin the spring it would break out again as bad asever. When T came back to Boston, I was told by many friends that Dr. — (whose reputation for the cure of those diseases was of the highest order) could cure me. I waited on the Doctor; he pre- scribed for me. I followed his advice for six months, and I can safely say, without any im- provement. I tried other physicians, and among Frog Dr. ee part Boston, and pis ald of city proper, but all to no purpose. They did me flovgboa? thelr remedies were 80 ineffectual that at no time did 1feel that a cure would result from them, ‘Now, about three months ago, Mr. Meehan, a gentleman well known to Boston people, called my attention to your CoTrcuna ReMEbtes, and promised wonderful results if I would only make atriul, He told me of his own experience with it, and so persevered on me that I went with him to a drug-store and bought them and commenced to use them Gacy 2 to the directions. There was so much humor lodged within the skin that as goon as { commenced the use of CoTrcura it came to the surfuce and festered, until vast quantities bad come out and greatly intensified my sufferings for sbout two weeks. But ldid not mind this, as I felt that I was going to get rid of the humor when Isaw it coming to the surfaco in such hw quantitics, After the first two or three weeks’ use of these remedies, Iwas greatly encouraged by a gradual lessen- ing of tho Inflammation of a number of painful sores. I carefully, falthtully, and cheerfull: toUlowed the directions to the letter, feeling eac! ‘week nearer a cure. until at the present. mo- ment, after three months’ use of Curicua Ren- EDTES and twelve years of 2s constant suffering as was ever endured, I can say that I am cured, and pronounce my case tho most remarkable on. record. Ihave been so elated with my success that I have stopped men on the street who were aftiicted and told them to get the Curicuna REMEDIES and thoy would cure them. This ia why I am 60 gratetul to you, for IT believe them to be the best and greatest discovery of the nge, and that they will cure all who are suffering with these diseases J ay add ees no rnal medicine but the CoTicura RESOLVENT. pas WILLIAS! TAYLOR. Bosro, Aug. 22, 1878. Statement Sixteen Months Later. In answer to many inquiries, I desire to say thut it is now sixteen months since I wrote the above statement. that my eure hus proved per- munent and my general health pertect. Ihave nothing to retract but much to udd in grateful praise of the Curicona REMEDIES. = Boston, Jan. 1, 1880. WM. TAYLOR, CUTICURA REMEDIES, | For All Humors of the Blood.
