New Yous, Feb. 27.—The steamer La Cham- pagne, which arrived yesterday from Havre, rau down the schooner Belle Higgins off Shin- nock light at 5 o'clock yesterday morning. A small hole was made in the steamer’s bows, but the water-tight buikhead just abaft the bows prevented the water from getting beyond the forward compartment, Some of the passengers were awakened by the shock and came on deck, but there was no alarm and most of the pas- sengers did not know of the accident until several hours afterward. The schooner was lumber iaden and therefore did not sink. Her crew were taken the steamer and brought here. The schooner was anchored and s has been sent out to tow her in. There was no fog at the time of the collision, but it was dark. The steamer saw a flashlight on the schooner and took her fora pilot boat, as a pilot boat generally signals incoming steamers about that locality. The steamer therefore did not alter her course, as she would do in the case of aregular sailing vessel, The schooner kept on across the steamer’s bow and the collision occurred. The accident was almost precisely similar as to time, place and circumstances to the one which resulted in the sinking of the Oregon some years ago, when 800 passengers narrowly escaped. lishman, who yesterday registered at the Grand Pacific as “E. C. De Peyer, London,” was met there by Jacob and Samuel Woolner of Peoria, and the party was in close conference ail day. The story is that as soon as the trust was dissolved and a corporation organized in its stead, a proposition was at once made by the London parties which brought about yesterday's conference. Mr. De Peyer admitted last even- ing to a reporter that he was negotiating with the Woolners. Mr. Jacob Woolner at first refused to talk, but when told of Mr. De Peyer's admission he said: “Now, that the matter has leaked out, I will say that a big portion of the hea trust now iweorporated under the laws of Llinois will be sold to an English syndicate, of which Mr. De Peyer is the repre tive.” WATERED WHISKY. A Chicago Industry Paralyzed by the Activity of a New Collector. Cutcaco, Feb. 27.—Collector Mamer has seized a number of barrels of whisky selected from various houses doing a wholesale whisky | business here and the peculiar methods they have been following to meet competition in the trade have at least the element of novelty. The collector said: “The attention of this department was called to the fact that a good dea of whisky was being sold by certain firms at # figure even below the tax cost. After a care- ful investigation we discovered that a number | of dealers are in the habit of reducing the | proof standard of whisky and selling it to their customers fully 20 per cent below the proof guaranteed by the United States certificate. After the whisky is guaged and the proof found | to be a certain standard 20 or 30 per cent of it is withdrawn from the barrels, which are then filled up with water. The guager’s certificates thus states that the whisky is of 4 certain stan- dard, when, in fact, it is adulterated, the gov- | ernment stamp thus aiding very considerably im the perpetration of the fraud on the cus- tomer. We seized a number of barrels thus adulterated and have forwarded to Washington @ detailed report of the whole matter. The parties interested have been up here to see me and claimed that the practice is generally fol- lowed aud is necessary in consequence of the keen competition in the whisky trade. ee PATTI IN A SNOW BANK.

This morning thera was a large atlendance in the Circuit Court to hear the decision of Judge Montgomery in the case of Edgar Ecker- son, s fourteen-months-old child, produced by the grandparents on the petition of the father for a writ of habeas corpus. Judge Montgomery announced that his conclusion was that the child should remain with the grendparents for the present. In his opinion, ie said, it was conceded that the child was that of petitioner by the deceased daughter of respondent and that it was only to the timely and unceasing efforts of the grandmother the present existence of the child is due. The father had lately re- moved to Oregon, where he proposes to reside, Ordinarily the father. who is liable for the maintenance of the child, was reciprocally entitled prima facie to the custody of the child. The Proposition that | the welfare of the child should be consulted he | did not think was the only or controlling ques- | tion, The child should allowed to remain | or go where its substantial interests would be | best subserved. The judge thought it much better that the child should remain with its grandparents, The father, he said, could much more easily | reconcile himeelf to @ separation than the old | people. pea sete oS THE COURTS.
