ORCHARD SHEDS TEARS (I 8d mojj pannnucp) ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING. CASTLE ROCK, Wash., June 13 Mrs. Bacon, of this place, was accidentally shot this morning by a girl practicing with a small rifle, the ball passing through Mrs. Bacon's left breast, in dicting a painful but not dangerous wound. alter having occupied it for a total of ;12 hours. Just before he wa excused and remanded he went back into the hands of the prosecution and identified the casing of the bomb, he planted at the gate of Judge Goddard's house in Denver. Orchard is to return to the witness ehair later because the defense must lay formal lines for impeaching him and the state must still have its re-direct examination. When Orchard left the stand the state began the corroboration of the Bradlev poisoning story. Mrs. Sadie Swan, who was Miss Sadie Bell, was the maid in the Bradley family. Oliver Crook, the milkman, who sold the milk that was poisoned and P. L. MeCreary, the chemist who analyied the poisoned milk, carried the revolting tale through to the analysis, that showed from 40 to 60 grains of strychnine in a quart of iU Jin. Swan identified Orchard ana connected him with the houH, they all confirmed the date as within three or four .days of the explosion and Mrs. Swan swore she opened the front door to get the morning paper a few minutes before the explosion and saw nothing on the steps. There will be no further testimony as to the Bradley mciuent tomorrow. Immediately after the noon recess, former Governor Peabody met Orchard in the office of the counsel for the prose, cution. The meeting was unexpected as far as Orchard was concerned and when he saw Peabody advancing towarcj him, with outstretched hand he blanched and began to tremble. "I am ashamed to speak to you Gov ernor; I am ashamed to look at you," faltered Orchard. "That's all right," said PeaboJy, laughing, "You need not be ashamed to speak to me now." Orchard began crying and when Pea body had succeeded in quieting him Slid: "I am glad I did not kill you, I am spared the thought of that crime at least." Orchard and Peabody spent 15 or 20 minutes together and parted in a friendly way. CASTORJA For Infanta and Children.

OHIO STRIKES OS THE ICE TERRIFIC PANIC ENSUES AND THREE ARE DROWNED THE VESSEL IS SINKING RAPIDLY IN THE HARBOR. SEATTLE, June 13.-A special to the Times from Nome says: The steamshin Ohio, owned by the White Star Steamliin Company, truek on the lee at Port Safety at 2 o'clock yesterday morning, with los of life to two white men and one Chinaman, and great damage to the ship. A huge hole was stove in the Ohio's bow anfi ahe hemin to fill ranidlv. A terrific Panic n ensued, during which the davit lines were cut and the lifeboats dropped and a number of occupants thrown into the oca. In all. 75 nersons iumned from the ship or were precipitated from lifeboat onto the ice and in the water, in im two white men drowned, the name of only one. Otto Anderson, has been learned. The shio's officers were cool, but worked rather slowly. Only for the ef forts of Captain Hrown, rirst jinie Frank Mills, Chief Engineer E. L. Ray mond and Purse Allen, a disastrous loss of life might have resulted. Passenger and crew became greatly excited, and a ma,1 rush for the boats followed the grounding of the ship. Dy closing the bulkheads of compartments l and me officers of the tdiip did much toward 'aving the craft and the lives of her passengers. When onler had been restored, the Ohio was backed off the ire and re turned to Nome, badly damaged. At a late hour last night she was sinking rapidly in the roadstead, her position being a most precarious one. A com mittee has been appointed by Captain Brown to survey the ship. Captain Peter Jordan of this city received a telegram this morning from his son, Chester, from Nome, dated Wed nesday. It rend as follows: "Shipwrecked Landed at Nome safe and well." He had failed from Seattle a couple of weeks ago on the steamship Ohio for Nome, and his telegram ' was the firt intimation reaching thin city that the vessel had been wrecked. Hie telegram was evidently to allay alarm as to his safety. Tokio, concluding at followtj "A you will observe from the above statement, the whole matter Is pursuing its normal course, and there 1 abso lutely nothing which would Justify the alarmist rumors emanating from Irre sponsible sources.
