Huh Dmail Dene Along the Shore at
r New Jersey.
Nkw York, Oct. 10. A storm which
broke shortly after midnight baa done
great damage on sea and land. The
tracks of the New Jersey Southern rail
way between Seabright and Highland
Beach, N. J., are covered with sand
washed np on them by the waves. The
fishing smack Louise, driven ashore at
Highland Beach, is a total loss. The
crew was taken off by the lifesavingcrew.
A steamship apparently in distress was
sighted about daylight at anchor some
distance off Long Branch, but.the sea
was running so high no effort was made
to establish communication between the
steamship and shore. The steamship
does not seem to be in immediate dan
ger. In Seabright and vicinity buildings
were unroofed. At Long Island City a
big iron tank belonging to the East
River Gas Company was blown down to
within five feet of the foundation. . The
tank was 200 feet high and 185 wide.
Wires were all blown down, and small
boats Along the shore from long Island
City to Bowers' Beach were broken and
thrown upon the beach. The trolley
wires of the Brooklyn railroad at North
' Beach were broken, and the cars are not
now being run. The ferryboat Hartwell
of the Sixty-secend-street ferry was dis
abled on entering the slip at Long Island.
A new engine-house at the corner of
Steinway and Flushing avenues was
blown down. An unusually high tide
washed the east end of Staten. Island'
doing considerable damage to 'small
yachts, in Jersey City three horses
were killed by coming in . contact
with live wires. Many - shade trees
were uprooted. The only steamers that
reached quarantine this morning were
the Manitoba from Rio Janerio; Teu
tonic from Berlin. The vessels due to
day are the Alesia from Naples ; Havel
from Bremen; Kron Prinz Fredericb
Willhelm from Naples ; Mobile from
London ; Scandia from Hamburg ; State
of Nebraska from Glasgow; and Wille
Had from Bremen.- Several steamers
from Southern and West Indian points
due today are no doubt receiving
the full force of the gale. They are the
"Carbibbe from Barbadoes; Elmar from
New Orleans : Neuces from Galveston ;
and Yucatan from Havana.
Off Bell Haven, near Greenwich, Conn,
the yacht Verona is ashore ' with every
prospect of becoming a complete wreck.
At Englewood a falling chimney killed
Miss Mary Eerr,19 years of age. The
tug Bell Williams having in tow seven
bargeB-loaded with coal, at Lloyd's har
bor, L. I., were all driven ashore. Four
persons known to be on the boats are
missing. About 8 a. m- an unknown
schooner was seen off White Stone, L. I.,
going before the wind in the direction of
New York. -Her foremast was gone and
most of her bow tori away.
Steeve and Kelly Indicted.
Portland, Oct. 10. The grand jury,
after a rapid, but thorough investigation
of the Sayres murder, has returned an
indictment against Xenophone N.
- Steeves and Joseph ("Bunco") Kelly for
murder in the first degree. This was
not unexpected.
Immediately after the indictment had
been returned, the. district attorney
asked the court for an order to the effect
that Tom Burns, James J. Meban, John
Carroll and Robert Garthorne be held in
bonds of $1,000 each to appear in court
as witnesses at the trial, and, in addi
tion, that the chief of police turn over to
the clerk the cash - bail deposited by
George Powers.
Sheriff SearB and bis chief deputy,
Emanuel Meyer, at once called upon
Chief Minto with an order for Steves
and Kelly.
When Steves was ; brought from his
quarters in the third' story of the city
prison into the main office of the police
station, he had not yet been informed of
the grand jury's action, and did not com
prehend what his removal signified.. He
shook hands with a Telegram represen
- tative, remarking :
"Well, I see they are going to give me
new quarters."
"Havn'tyoa heard what the grand
jury has done?" asked the reporter.
"No; what is it?" 1 1
"They have indicted you and Kelly
for murder in the first degree.
Steeves was lost in reverie a second or
two, when he recovered himself and
said la a nonchalant manner: .
Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report
"That's very unpleasant, I must say."
Beyond that he made no remark up
on the subject, and a minute later he
walked up' second street, smoking a
cigar, with deputy Meyer and Detective
James Barry as his escorts to the county
jail. .
."Bunco" Kelly, when taken out of
his cell, had the picture of dispair
marked upon his face. His wrists were
ironed, and Sheriff Sears marched, him
through Third street to his new quarters
in the county jail. ' .
Kelly's statement as to the complicity
of X N. Steeves with the murder is as
follows : . Steeves approached him last
May and told him he could make $2,000
by getting away with Say era. Steeves
told him that he was attorney for W. O.
Allen, who ia a defendant in several
suits in court brought by Sayres, and in
which the latter's testimony was very
important. Steeves intimated to Kelly
that Sayres was to be gotten rid of to en
able him to win these suits.' Kelly took
the matter under consideration, telling
Steeves he would give him an answer
later. They met several times after that,
and discussed the subject f arther, but it
was notj until after the Sfune election
that Kelly agreed to take the "job" He
then told Steeves he would do the busi
ness for bim.- About two weeks before
the murder Kelly began negotiations
with. Sayres regarding the imaginary
opium deal. . i
The police have evidence that SteeveB
has paid Kelly several sums of money
at different times.
The Latest In Xammanyv Investigation
New Yokk, Oct. 10. The Lexow
police investigation committee resumed
workj today. Among the crowd that
gathered today ia the court were several
police captains whose faces had not been
seen there before. '
. Warden Lodwith of the police court
prison told the committee about certain
abuses in those institutions which he
was investigating. General Forget of
the French steamship line, testified that
his company has paid $500 to the police
for extra services. Policeman on the
pier were paid $19 a week, and $500
went to other police officers. One of the
company's books was produced, showing
that in Nov. 1891, $500 had been paid for
"special service on th6 pier."
Mr. Goff asked if Policeman Degan
had been removed from the pier because
he refused to devide with the captain
the money he received.
Policeman Degan . tentified he was
stationed on the French line pier for ten
years and the company paid him $10 a
week for working overtime and on his
days off. In 1891 Wardsman Vail told
told him he must pay $10 a weak to cap
tain Schmittberger. " Degan refused,
saying he was already paying the cap
tain $5 a week and the latter would soon
waDt his whole salary. He was prompt
ly removed to another beat. All police
men, be said, shared their extra money
with the captains.

One of the Queer Scenes Witnessed In
Tartary. -
I had occasion to visit Tartary some
years ago, said a New Haven man re
cently, and while there nothing inter
ested me more than -watching the na
tives trade in camels. The camel mar
ket is a larjre square in the center of I
.1 4. TT J I -
me iuwil riere lue ammais are ax
ranged in long rows, their front feet
raised on a mud elevation constructed
for the purpose, the object being to
show off the size and height of the
creatures. The uproar and confusion
of tfiis market is tremendous, with the
incessant howling of the buyers and
sellers as they dispute, their chatter
ing after they have agreed and the
horrible shrieking of the animals at
having their nose3 pulled for the pur
pose of making them show their agility
in kneeling and rising. In order to
test the strength of the camel and thet
puraen it is capable oi bearing they
make it kneel and then pile one thing
after another upon its back, causing it
to rise under each addition until it can
rise no longer. Another expedient
used to test the strength of the animal
is this: While the animal is kneeling
a man gets upon his hind legs and
holds on by the long hair of its hump.
If a camel can rise then it is consid
ered an animal of superior Strength.
The success that has attended the use
of Dr. J. H. McLean's Volcanic Oil Lin
ament in the relief of pain and in curing
diseases which seemed beyond the reach
of medicine, has been truely remarkable.
Hundreds supposed to be crippled for
life with arms and legs drawn up crook
ed or distorted, their muscles withered or
contracted by disease have been cured
through the use of this remedy. Price
