So far so good. On Tuesday morning last the French bark General Foy, wheat laden for Europe departed from this port, and on her way out her mas ter, Captain Tatevin, informed Mr. Leblanc that he had just received a letter from his wife, in France, tell ing him of the total loss of the bark Alice Marie on the' coasts of the Isle of Man, on her way to Antwerp; and thus it will be seen that Captain Cloartre's happy deductions as to his next voyage were blasted. The ship sank in SO fathoms of water after going on the rock of Manx, but her officers and crew were saved by the lifesavers that swarm on those shores. , ' The Kamm liner Lurline did not get down last evening until after 9 o'clock owing to pressure of shore business between Portland and this port and left up at 10 o'clock with the following named people on board: Geo. S. Taylor, the genial representative of the Wisconsin Cen tral Railway system; E. Wood, Mrs. M. J. Johnson, Miss Gage, Mrs. Honeyman and Mrs. Conday. ' ,., The steamer Sue H.

Morning Astorian, 60 cents per month THE MORNING EXHUlIE BODIES FROL OLD CEMETERY SEVERAL ARE DISINTERRED SOME INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT OLD CEMETERY Recently the Common Council has been asked to ' grant permission to disinter several bodies buried in the old City or Hillside cemetery, and to have them buried again in the Ocean View cemetery, and these re quests are uniformally granted upon certain few and proper conditions, Yesterday Max Pohl commenced the work of disinterring three bodies. They have been buried there for ap proximately 35 years , and the disin terment brings So light some inter esting and peculiar facts. In the case of bodies buried for many yetuM in this ground little is found as in the present case but the whitened bones dnd some - of the clothing; perhaps, too, some of the hair will still be in evidence. The woodwork of the coffins does not last long in the very wet ground in the Hillside cemetery, for Mr. Pohl says that there are numerous springs in the cemetery and the whole, place is saturated with moisture. ' In one or more cases where bodies have been exhumed there after hav ing been buried only a comparatively few years, the coffins would be found filled with water, and this "water tended to preserve the bodies in quite a remarkable way. About six years ago the body of a woman was exhumed, and it was found to be in a state' of perfect petrification just like stone, and weighing perhaps 600 or 800 pounds. , In the new cemetery Ocean View it is said that bodies, soon are dis integrated in the sands of that bury ing ground, and this rapid return of dust to dust will perhaps, be more to the liking of the average person who has gone to the bourne from whence there is no return. Some bodies . evidently last longer than others, it is said a subject that was well discussed by the grave-diggers in Hamlet. 'It is stated that there are' still many bodies in the old Hillside cem etery,, and perhaps it will never be possible to find some of the graves and bodies. Head-boards have rotted and vafious other markings have disappeared; in some cases there will never be any request to move bodies for the reason that all the relatives are dead and friends have moved away or have perhaps even forgot ten the dead that arc buried there. It is understood that the grave yard now is owned by the city, but there seems to have been a clause in the original dedication which stated that the tract, should revert to the Shively estate in case the land should ever be used for other than cemetery purposes.'"- , '..

EGATTA FEUBGESHRE ALL AUDITED COMMITTEE ASCERTAINS RE CEIPtS WILL JUST ABOUT EQUAL EXPENDITURES At a meeting of the Regatta com mute held in the Chamber of Com merce last night the accounts of the annual event in August- were gone over for the last time. It was found that ' the receipts will just about equal the expenditures. ; -Approximately $8tHX) was secured by subscription, and of this sum $2175 was secured from out of town. While the receipts were just about $8000, the expenditures will take, vir tually all of that, so that there will probably be nothing left over for next year. The secretary win ne prepared within a few days to an nounce all of the detailed receipts and expenditures. The Re'gaMa cost the city about $6000 and the other $2000 was secur ed in Portland and other places. It is estimated by members of the com mittee that the Regatta brought from $40,000 to- $50,000 into the city, and if thise be true the Regatta is cer tainly a paying matter from the fi nancial side. Of the $8000 spent by the Regatta committee it is stated that perhaps 95 per cent of this was spent at home. With the exception of a few small accounts the entire business is now closed up. It is said, however, that the man who conducted the tugs of war has retained a lawyer and is about to sue the committee, alleging that he had never been paid for hi services. -. NO SENTIMENT THERE. Old Sandy Hook Light ShipsTo Be Put Out Of Business. NEW YORK, Oct. 28.-On De cember 1, the old Sandy Hook light shin which for half a century has marked the western, end ,of .he trans' Atlantic travel, will go out of exis tence and the name will never ap pear on the logs of the ships cros' sing the ocean. In place of the old ship will be an entirely new one, and on its side will be painted the words, "Ambrose Channel." The old land mark, or rather sea mark, will dis appear and the name that has for half a century been one of the most prominent in the annals of naviga tion will disappear forever. The on ginal lightship was anchored in its place more than 50 years ago and the present vessel was put into commis sion in 1892. When it was decided two years ago that the present ship would not last much longer, a new one was ordered and has, now' been completed. "With the opening of the new Ambrose Channel ships will not approach within three miles of San dy Hook and for that reason an un sentimental lighthouse board has de cided to substitute its name for the old and honored one of Sandy Hook The board is prepared for all sorts of protests from those who 'wish to cling to the old amc but has fully decided that the navigators must ,use the new one. There will be no change in the lights or fog signals. BIG RAILWAY EARNINGS. VAam Tine Has Surolus After All IHvidends, Etc Are Paid. ST. LOUIS, Oct. 28.
