Poutlasd, Jau. 5. The steamer Tel
phone of the Columbia, transportation
line while on her way to this city from
Astoria early this morning ran on break
water at the mouth of the Willamette
river and is now lying at the bottom of
the river with only the forward part of
the vessel above water. All passengers
and crew were safely landed. There
were 85 passengers aboard. They were
all transferred to the steamer Undine,
which passed the scene soon after the
accident and they were brought to this
city. From the pilot who just reached'
this city it is learned that a heavy fog
was hanging over the river at the time.
just ueiore tne steamer struck, lie re-
alized his dangerous pofcition and stopped
me vessel, out owing to the strong cur
rent, she was carried down stream.
Seeing this he started her up stream
again and had proceeded some distance
i i . - . ...
when the steamer ran aground on the
breakwater which, owing to the high state
of the river, was cornpletelv submerged.
The vessel soon beean to fill and her
stern to slowly sink. She is now com
pletely submerged, with -the excentinn
of the bow which is supported and held
last by the b.eakwater. - Had' it hot
been ior the latter fact, the vessel would
have sunk in seventy feet-.of water and
the fate of the passengers would have
been extremely doubtful. The amount
of 'freight aboard was sin all nl did nnt

now to estimate the amount of damage.
The steamer was valued at about S60.
000. , lit is thought shecan be got off and
raised without nuich difficulty and ez
pdnse. - - : . , ;,'
.The steamer now rests on the break
water at an angle of twenty degrees and
leans toward the starboard. The water
covers the ste rn up to the top of the up
per deck and extends to within thirty
feet of the bowv It is stated that the
officials of the transportation company
will blame the captain for trying to pro
ceed when the fog was so heavyithat . a
pilot could not see the light at the month
of the riverJ ' He should have tied the
steamer up until the fog cleared The
vessel is not insured. .' .
Senatorial Contest Knded.'
Columbus, Ohio,' Jan. 5.-The greatest
senatorial contest the' republicans of this
state have ever known is practically at
aa' end. .Everyi; political indication
points to the nomination of John Sher
man tomorrow by a majority of ten or
twelve votes over Foraker, although
this of course is not conceded bv the
friends of the latter . The press of Ohio
this morning generally consider the con
test at an end. The bitterness of Foraker
people toward the national administra
tion is intense and W. S. Appellar, of
Mansfield, one of ex-Governor Foraker's
leading managers, today says :
."Whether Sherman be nominated or
not he will beyond this time be a politi
cal blank in Ohio politics, either state
or national. The senatorial contest will
leave sore places in every county, town
ship" and school district and if McKinley,
the incoming governor, can comprehend
and realize the situation and be able to
heal up these wounds he will have per
formed a very credible feat. There are
those who believe if' Sherman ig nomi-
hated for the senate it ' will necessitate
the nomination of Blaine as president,
to swing Ohio into the republican col
umn. ", - - .

The New York Legislature Convene.
; Albas v, Jan. 5. Both branches o
the legislature assembled at i 1 o'clock'.
The senate elected the officers chosen by
the democratic caucus. Edwards, inf
pendent, voted with the democrats. No
efforts at obstruction were made by the
republicans. Walker, democrat, for
the 27th senatorial district was seated.
The assembly was quietly organized and
the 'officers 'nominated -by democratic
caucus were elected. A committee was
then appointed by both branches and
notified the governor that the legislature
was organized. He at once sent in his
message and it was read. In it he con
gratulated the people of the state upon
the favor for the first time in eight years
that the governor was able to address
his suggestions to a legislature in politi
cal accord with the wwnt.ivc Ha
stated that the paramount duty before
the legislature was to provide for enum

' Deadly Work.
Denver, Colo., Jan. 4. Charles
Schmidt, who is confined in the jail here,
confessed bis part in the Greenwood
murder, which . took place near Napa,
Cal., last February. Schmidt says he
came to tnis country in 189 and visited
a number of places in search of work,
eventually reaching California. ffe
claims ho met a well-dressed American
in Napa county who offered him work
on a ranch if Schmidt would accompany
him. which lie did. They visited a
number of saloons, and passed the night
either at Benicia or Port Costa. The
next day the stranger coinielled him at
the pistol's point io accompany him to
the Greenwood residence. Here they
bound Captain Greenwood, and when
Mrs. Greenwood arrived the stranger
threatened to kill her if she did not give
up all the money in the house. She
gave him all she had and the stranger
then bound her, aud gave both of them
something to drink from a tin cup.
The men then drove to a saloon about a
mile from town. Subsequently they re
turned to the houte, and the" stranger,
after firing it number of shots at the
Greenwoods, again ransacked the house
When the men camped for the night the
stranger gave Schmidt something to
drink, and when he regained conscious
ness the stranger was gone. Schmidt
says he tried to shoot the latter while he
was binding Mrs. Greenwood, but the
pistol refused to go off. When they
stopped at the house a second time
Schmidt let the horse go, and the stran
ger, hearing the wheels, fired at him,
and compelled him to re-enter the house.
Schmidt states he would have made a
confession before had he known the
whereabouts of his companion, who had
threatened to kill him if he divulged the
secret.

he does not think Mr. Mills' hastv Hp.
partnre has any bearing on his relations
to Speaker Crisp. There are other
members, however, who sav that tbe
defeated candidate for speaker has en
tirely washed his hands of any responsi
bility for or connection witli the pro
gramme, or business in the house, and
that his hunting trip is intended to em
phasize his disgust at the treatment ac
corded him by the speaker in the make

THE RUSSIAN FAMINE.
The Czar Does not Wish its Horrors to
Kecome Oenerally Known.
St.' Petersburg, Jan. 4. It appears
that the czar does not wish any. wide
spread impression to go forth of the hor
rors of the Russian famine. General
Maneei, general of cavalry and aid-de- -camp
in command of the corps of the
guard, joined with his fellow-officers in
a movement to give np their pav for a
time for the relief of the famine suf
ferers. The offer was communicated to
the czar, who, instead of receiving it
with satisfaction, ' showed that he was
offended, and said there was no famine,
but merely a partial failure of the crops,
which was being relieved by the govern- .
inent. As General Maneei has stood
high in the favor of the. czar, this ex
pression of feeling is regarded as showing
that the czar considers the famine report
as reflecting upon himself as an autocrat.
r rienaiy ierms Desired.
Behlin, . Jan. 4. Emperor Wiliiam
has sent a very cardial New Year's mes-
sage to the "pope. In reply the pope
said he desired always to be on friendly

emperor- every success in his struggle
with socialism, the common enew" of
religion and empire. .
