Mr. Allen said that it wa not strange to him that th who cla od that every person in the United States was affected for weal or woe by protection should oppose the passage of a resolution that would determine how much falsit there was in that claim The resoluti went over and the tariff bill was taken up.

WASHINGTON, June 19.—Secretary Her- bert has written a letter to Captaln George W. Summer, commanding the Columbia, in regard to the grounding of that vessel, in which he says: The department regrets that it is com- pelled to fully concur in the opinion of the court of Inquiry, that it was the duty of the commanding officer to have been on the bridge when the vessel was pas- sing Bulkhead shoals, and that it was also - his duty to have caused the speed of the vessel to be reduced at that time. The speed over the bar where the injury is found to have occurred ought to have been slower, and especially when the fact is considered that with the water she carried in her double bottom at the time there was very small margin of safety. “In view, however, of the recommenda- tion of the court that mo further proceedings be had, the matter will be regarded as closed with your acknowledgment of the re- ceipt of this communication. Very respect- tully, H. A. HERBERT, Secretary of the Navy.” RETURNED IN GOOD HEALTH. Cleveland Back at the White House and Buckling Down to Work.

Nance County Farmers Rejoicing Over Heavy Showers After a Long Drouth. FULLERTON, Neb., June 19.—(Special to The Bee.)—Nance county was visited by a soaking rain yesterday, lasting one hour, resulting in two inches of rainfall. The farmers are feeling very much encouraged over the fine prospects for a grand corn crop. Wheat, cats and rye are an entire failure throughout the county. A large acreage of millet is being sown to make winter feed for stock. The hay crop is entirely ruined by the dreuth. NEWCASTLE, Neb., June 1 The Bee)—Dixon county is praying that some of the drenching rains visiting other portions of the state will come this way. Although all small grain will not be half a crop, yet corn never looked any better at this season of the year, and good rains will make an encrmous crop. Potatoes and other vegetables are needing rain very badly. CEDAR RAPIDS, Neb., June 19.—(Special to The Bee.)—A toaking rain visited Cedar Rapids and vicinity this morning, and the drouth, which has prevailed for several weeks, is broken, and prospects seem favor- able for more rain. Most of the small in this immidiate vicinity cannot be hel by this rain, as it is dried up alrea corn has been doing nicely, and mest farmers say that they never had a better stand. This rain will almost assure a corn crop. BANCROFT, Neb., June 19.—(Special to The Bee)—Last night this section was vis- ited by a very fine rain, which soaked the ground to a depth of eight to ten inches. It is the first rain of any amount that has fallen since corn was planted, and while too late to save the small grain, it will greatly help it, and insures the potato and hay crop. Small grain will average from a fourth to half a crop. TEKAMAH, Neb., June 19.—(Special to The Bee)—There was another fine rain here this afternoon. With the exception of a few stands of small grain, which was stunted on account of the drouth, crops in Burt county never looked better. FORT ROBINSON, Neb., June 19.—(Spe- cial Telegram to The Bee.)—There was a violent dust storm, lasting about five min- utes, here today, preceded by a violent rain and hall storm, blowing a part of an old stable away and bending thé topmast of the local iron flag staff. Nothing was damaged in_the vicinity. LYONS, Neb., June 19.—(Special to The Bee.)—Good rains fell here last night, doing great good to vegetation. Small grain will be almost a failure. Corn prospects were never more favorable than at present. The hay crop will be light. The oldest settlers say they mever saw it s0 dry at this season of the year. The se- verity of the drouth is caused by the subsoil containing so little moisture in the spring. The beet crop looks fine and several report a stand that will bring ten to seventeen tons per acre.

My wife was then under chloroform, and I could do nothing. Then he began to butcher her, and finally he gave it up and said there was no hope. I was almost fainting, so one of them gave me a small glass of brandy. Whether it was drugged or not I don't know, but I do know that after drink- ing it I was a raving maniac. CAPTAIN IN IRONS. “When I came to myself I was in irons, cooped up in the forecastle. This was on Monday, the 1ith inst. In the afternoon they brought the body of the dead baby to the door and held it up at the grating for me to look at. A few hours later they dropped it overboard. All this time my wife was dying and they would not let me out. With the aid of the carpenter I man- aged to break jail and made a rush for the cabin where my wife lay. They jumped on re, acting on the mate's orders, and I was put in a straight jacket. 1 worked out of the straight jacket and with the aid of the second mate got out again. This time four men caught me and the mate jumped on me and again I was ironed. On the morn- ing of last Saturday they came to me and said that if T would forgive them and prom- ise to make no report against them they would let me out. I agreed and at 10 a. m. they set me at liberty. I at once went to my poor wife, What they had done to her while I was away 1 don’t know, but when I reached her she was unconscious. At 6:30 Saturday night she died. The men have got up all sorts of stories, but what I tell you is the plain and unvarnished truth.” The sailors, headed by the first mate, have drawn up a series of charges against the captain, which they say they will lay before the British consul. They say that he drank to excess during the voyage and abused them on various occasions. Second Mate Jones is equally positive, however, that there is not ome word of truth in the charges. The autopsy at the morgue this afternoon upon the body of Mrs. Wilcox showed that peritonitis caused death. The coroner will have a microscopical examina- tion made to ascertain the extent of the malpractice and an inquest if decided upon will be held Thursday afternoon.
