President-elect Cleveland has at last come out and announced the fact that he had asked Judge. Walter Q. Gresham of Illinois to be tho Secre- tary of State, and that the judge has written a letter of acceptance. Mr. Cleveland made this announcement to United States Senator Martin of Kansas, who called at the Cleveland cottage at Lakewood yesterday morning in the interest of George G. Glick, whom the people of Kansas would like to see in charge of the Agricultural Department. n making this announcement to Senator Martin, who was accompanied by Dr. 8. F. ieely ‘of Leavenworth, Mr. Cleveland said: “Isee no reason now why I should not make the announcement that I have asked Judge Gresham to go into the State Department and that the jadge has complicd with my request. In deciding to give up the bench and go into my cabinet as Secretary of State I know vory well that the Judge has made great personal sacrifices, and know this. When first I made up my mind to ask the judge to accept this position I feared that he would not like to give up his position, which is a better paying one than the one i | offered him, so I was quite anxious to have his answer. “When it came to me I felt happy, not only as far as I was concerned, but for the countr; at large, for in Judge Gresham the people find a man well fitted for this most important position. I feel proud in having secured such ® man and if the ‘boys’ will call here tonight I | Ml give them the ‘story, so that they can inform the world at large that I have secured one of the foremost men in this country for | Secretary of State.” nator Martin took great pride in giving this mation and said that before Mr. Cleveland made the announcement he had asked what the people of the west had to say in regard to the selection of Judge Gresham. ator Martin said that the people of his section were loud in their praise of the Preei- dent-cleet for having selected such a man. “But,” said the Senator, “it is simply reported that you have made the appointment. Is such really the fact? If it is I will be only too glad to take the news back to Kansas with me.” ‘This leading question caused the President- elect to make the announcement that he did. Senator Martin laughed at the story that the State portfolio had been offered to Judge Gres- ham for a specified time-tbat ie, until Minister Phelps had settled tho Bering sea difficulty, when the judge would be placed upon the Su- preme Court bench and Minister Phelps placed in the jadge’s position. Senator Martin said that no other cabinet offices had been discussed. The matter was gone over ina casual way, but Mr, Cleveland | gave no intimation who were to be Judge Gres- ham's companions, When a correspondent called at the Cleveland cottage last night nid asked Mr. Cleveland if he was willing to affirm Senator Martin's story Mr. Cleveland asked what was Mr. Martin's story and when told said: c you can say that besides Judge Gres- e selected John G. Carlisle of Ken- Daniel Lamont retary of War and Wilson S. Bissell of New York as Postmaster General. These men have all sent me letters of aceept- ance and I nm perfectly willing for you to make the announcement.” Mr. Cleveland refused to discuss any of the other offices, but promised that as soon as be received letters of acceptance from those to | whom he had written he would make the an- nouncement. —___+e+ TOSSED BY WIND AND WAVE. Sailors Swept From the Deck of the Steamer Hurona, ‘The British steamship Hurona, which left Dundee for New York on January 27, arrived vesterday after a tempestuous voyage. William Aitchison, a seaman, was washed overboard on February 1 by a heavy wave that swept over the vessel and another sailor was injured by | being thrown against the woodwork of the ves- sel. On February 4 John Decker, the taird officer, way swept from the deck by a heavy sea | that was shipped, but was brought back by the return current to the side of the steamer, where he was eaught by the crew. ‘The captain of the Hurona reported that on February 1, in latitude 5.18 and longitude 20.15, a fierce hurricane from the northwest t in, which continued fifteen hours withou intermission. It was at 4:15 p.m. on that day that the sailor Aitchison was lost. On February 4a hurricane from tho west overtook the ship. She would not snower her helm and had to lie to in the trough of the sea, The cattle stalls were thrown out of place aud the mechanism of the steam steering gear became jammed. The crew poured oil tothe windward with good effect from 6 a.m, to 4 p. ‘The next day the hand steering gear that bad been rigged got out of order and the suip had to be steered by tackle made fast to the after capstan. While this was being done a sailor was injured. ‘The crew hada hard time to work the ship until February 9, after which fair w was experienced until the ehip reached New York. ANOTHER STORY OF SHIPWRECK, Captain Frazer of the British steamer Nep- | tune, which arrived yesterday trom Montego bay, reports that on Saturday, February 11, at | 10 a. m., in latitude 30 degrees 30 minutes north, | longitude 74 degrees 19 minutes west, he sighted the Norwegian bark Knudsvig, Capt. Evensen of Norway, and bound from Belize, Honduras, to Goole, England, with a cargo of logwood. She was flying signals of distress, | ‘The Neptune bore up to the bark and found her leaking badly and ina sinking condition. Capt. Eveusen and his crew—ten persons—were taken off. ‘the bark being directly in the track of steamers from Crooked Irland passage bound for New York, and therefore dangerous to navigation, Capt. Frazer sent his chief officer aboard the bark, and she was set on fire. The | Kuudsvig had from the siart experienced most severe weather. When sighted she had four feet of water in her bold, and was leaking at the rate of ten inches an hour, and liable to sinl any moment. Capt. Evensen bad about given up all hope when the Neptune hove in sight and ed them. The Knudsvig was a large bark of 1,350 tons, 279 fect long and 37 feet breadth of beam. She was builtin Newcastle, England, in September, 1885, and was owned by Carlisle & Co. ANOTHER THRILLING STORY. Capt. Evensen of the abandoned bark Knudsvig tells thrilling story of the little steam propeller Syren, about twenty tons burden, which was purchased in England gor use at Bermuda and was bound for the lafer place in charge of four men. Capt. Evensen spoke the little vessel on February 6 in lati- tude 30,0 north, longitude 75, off the Carolina coast. She had been 129 days out from London. Mer propeller was lashed on deck, and she was rigged as a schooner and under sail. The four navigators had experienced terrible de- privations and saiferings and were entirely out of provisions and water and ina most distress- ing condition, Alter being supplied with provisions and water, told their position and informed of the day of the month, of which they were entirel ignorant, the Knudsvig wished them God speed, and they shaped their course for Charleston and bore away. — Rare Work From Ceylon, As evidence of the character and excellence of the exhibits whic are coming to the world’s fair from abroad the following description, given by the Madras Mail, of a casket made by a jewelry firm in far away Ceylon expressly for the fair. is given: “It ivundoubtedly one of the finest--if not the very finest--piece of work and the most costly and valuable ever turned out of a Ceylon establizhment. ‘The box is fourteen inches long by seven inches broad and is made of carved ivory om silver with broad bands of solid gold (Ratnapura work) edges.

AFTER OYsT: i PIKATES, One of the Boats of the Chesapeake Navy Captures a Dredge. ‘The scarcity of oysters on account of the re- cent freeze and the high price they command in consequence has stimulated the dredgers in the Chesapeake to take big chances in securing the oyster, and the first brush with the oyster police has already occurred, with the prospects in view of fighting all along the line. ‘The fight took place at Woman the Pokomoke sound, about two or three hun- dred yards within tho Virginia line, between the sloop McDaniel, Capt. Thomas Evans, and the Virginia police steamer Rodgers, Capt. Reed. ‘The Rodgers was sailing along in a dense fog when the man at the masthead sighted a vessel ahead, in the act of dredging. not 100 yards Capt. Thomas Evans of the McDaniel had no idea of surrendering, however, and rolled his wheel up to give his vessel the full benetit of the breeze. ‘The crew of the Rodgers then began to fire. Capt. ‘Thomas soon had to pull down his fore- sail, but soon after repe of this placed his men in the forecastle and endeavored to hoist the sail again. While thus engaged he received a ehot in the shoulder, which compelled him to let his boat Inff up ig the wind. Capt. “Reed ihen ran ajongside and his son jumped on board with a line, which he made fast. Even then Capt. Evans would not give up, but attempted to cut the line, when young Reed Marsh, in | grasped a shovel and drove him down into the forecastle, A prize crew was put aboard, and the Me- Daniel was takon to Tangier Island, and trom ngoteagne, where her sails were Temoved und the vessel was scuttled. Capt. Reed took this precaution in his prize might not be stolen, Capt. Evans was | released on bail. Hix wound troubled him a | great deal efter getting aboard the police boat, and he couid hardly stand. From three to four hundred shots were de- | livered by the Rodgers, and the McDaniel pre- sented the appearauce of having been through a siege. | _ Capt. Reed expects to have some hard fight- | ing before the oyster reason is over. He colnted forty-five boats dredging on Woman's Marsh Sunday, and there will probably be 150 boats there soon, asalarge fleet of boats is anchored in Horse Hammock waiting for a chance to nil for the forbidden groand.

In all the Catholic churches of the arch- diocese of Baltimore a paper issued and signed | by Cardinal Gibbons was read on Sunday. It | relates to the annual collection for the pope, which, in view of this being the golden jubilee of the episcopal consecration, the pope has taken up earlier than usual.
