The officer of the | watch ran through the cabin and awakened the passengers, and all above the deck got out in safety. Chief Engineer Bailey attempted a similar duty below the decks. and thirty pas- sengers came ashore. A number of laboring men got on the boat at Ashport, and they were soon in a state of intoxication. It is thought that four of these men were burned to death, asthe engineer was not able to rouse them: The Rosa Lee was one of the Lee line, owned and operated by Capt. James Lee and son.

Although Mr. Jones Had Csused Her Hus- band’s Arrest for Threats. A tall sickly looking man, who answered to the name of Conley R. Jones, was a prisoner in the Police Court this morning, the charge against him being threats toward his wife. For four- teen years they have lived together, and the husband said to Judge Miller that he was» Profane man, but that he had not used profane Ianguage toward his wife. A week ago, when he was arrested, he said his wife had good cause to have him arrested, for then he did use violent and profane language toward her. This time she charged that he pulled her hair. She told the judge that they lived at No. 133 East Capitol street. The trouble between them resulted from desire on his part to sell the furniture and leave this city. The husband said that he was sickly and had not bought the furni- ture. He also said that he was sorry to say that be was profane and had a bad but that he had always taken care to see that they never struck his wife. When the judge had heard both sides of the story the husband said that he would peck his trunk and leave here if bis wife so desired. The latter, however, did not seem to have any desires in the matter. She was unable to tell bow much she was afraid of bim, when asked if she wanted him sent to jail she made no response.

Neville Furnishes a Statement Rogard- ing the Dispute With Mr, Howland. Col. Robert Neville, whose encounter with Mr. 8.5. Howland at the horse show in New York city last week caused a great deal of talk in society, has furnished to the press a state- ment regarding the subject of dispute between Mr. Howland and himself. In June, 1890, he claims, Percy Drayton loat to George Hellen and himself each $80 on games of pool at the Metropolitan Club house in this city. ‘These bets Mr. Drayton neglected to pay and neither Mr. Hellen nor Col. Neville ever reminded him of them. ‘The latter at one time tried to muke the bet by deducting the money from a debt he owed Mr. Howland as president of the Dum-| blane Club, ing the latter to get the balance, | $30, from Percy Drayton, who was then at his | house. Mr. Howland ignored this dircction | and requested Col. Neville to pay the full | amount, which the latter did. | Col. Neville says thut he did not meet Mr. Drayton again until lag spring at the Dum- blane Club meeting. Drayton bet Neville $100 to 250 on a match race between George Dunn | and William Hayes. Col. Neville goes on to say: | Before the race was run Mr. Drayton was taken violently ill, und he died within u short time. As L understood that Mr. Drayton was not con- scious I suggested to Mr. Howland that the bet should be called off, but concerning that I will let this correspondence speak for itself: MOUNT MORRIS, N.
