eondence: Although the situation Is
not virtually changed, several matters
of, more or lew importance have trans

Dole addressed a note to Minister Willis
In which it was stated that the provis

from Minister Thurston of Secretary
Gresham's letter. The provisional gov
ernment wished to enquire, first, if It
is correct, and If so it was Intimated
that It was due them to be informed
what were the Intentions of the Uultsd

or the Secretary of State.
On Dec. 2nd a reply was reeslved by
President Dole In which Minister Wil
lis stated in substance that he consid
ered the letter of Secretary Gresham a
domestic matter, with which he (WIN
lis) had nothing to do. It was his opin
ion, however, that President Cleveland
would decide to furnish definite Infor
mation and Instructions as soon as be
bud received certain adylees-wuich had
already been transmitted to him.
President Dole said to an associated
Press represenatlve this morning that
Mr. Bowel! a Canadian minister, as
sured the government that both the

Trial of jhe 01ypia.
Santa Bakbaka, Cal. Dec. 10. The
new cruiser Olympla, on her trial test
in the channel today, did not equal the
expectations of her builders but still fur
exceeded the requ r menta and estab
lished a record for an 80 knot course ot
about 21.G7.
Much to the surprise of everyono, the
(fay was nearly porfect. Tho heavy
wind of last night left no bad effects, at
least, not at this end of the course. The
ocean was like a big mill poud.and whs
only ruffled by the big cruiser hereof
as she sped through the water, sending
a spray oyer her bow until tbo .decks
were drenched. From Goleta Point to
Point Conception quite a sea was run
ning, but not enough to retard bead
way to any extent.
The reason why the cruiser did not
equal her previous record is au umx
plslned mystery. Her machinery
worked perfectly, and there was not
the slightest break. Tho time of 21 07
is liable to correction on account of the
currents, which may result in the
Olympla's favor. There was a draft
four Inches greater thau the require
ments, which will also be counted In
the calculations, which will not be
made for several days, The maximum
speed Is estimated at 22.05.
Dubois on Voorhees' Bill.
Wabiiinoion, Dee. 10. The sliver
bill Introduced In the senate yestorduy
by Mr. Voorhees dofs not appear to
strike a sympathetic chord lu tne
hearts of the meu who made the fight
fr silver during the late extra session.
Mr. Dubois, who was an active lieuten
ant, thinks the bill cannot pass and
says that It will not afford the relief
that the people have'a right to expect,
adding:
"The bill is not what tho sliver m n
want, and it Is not what the true friend
of silver would propose. It will not re
oelve the votes of ibe men who voted
cgalnsut the repeal of the Sherman law,
aud I do not think it wll havethesup
port of the Repub'ican senators who
voted with the Democrats to repeal the
Sherman law. It the Bhermau law
was a makeshift, so Is this. The bill
will never be beard from, aud I very
much doubt If It Is even reported from
the committee."

TDAT BRIDGE DISASTER,
The IMnished Structure Was a
Death Trap.
I10RLBD INTO TUB RIVER BENEATil.
Largo Number of Dead Bodies
Already Recovered.
Louisville, Ky., Dec. 10. When
the Jeflersonvllle bridge struck the
water all were concealed for an Instant
by spray thrown high Into the air. As
the water subsided here and there
could be seen men struggling desper
ately to climb upon the , timbers that
thrust their ends above water.' A few
succeeded in climbing pieces in safety
and were quickly rescued by boats put
out from tho shores. Tbo others strug
gled desperately and were carried off
by the current to sink almost as rescue
was at hand.
Near tho bridge lived tho wives and
children of many workmen. They
were soon on the river hank. Many
were wild with grief and rushed fran
tically about wringing their hands and
tearing their hair. To whose door
must bo laid the responsibility will
never be known, probably.
It was doubtless one of those unfore
seen accidents tbatocour In spite of all
precautionary measures. The general
oplulou ascribes the causo of tbo disas
ter to the etlft wind which bad been
sweeping the river all day. It bore
with great force on the ponderous
framework which necessarily became
loosened from constant strain and
swaying heavy timbers. A great num
ber of people before the first span fell
could sea the great "travellers" rising
eighty feet abovo tho piers, swaying
and quivering In tho wind in what ap
peared to be a most alarming manner
to those on shore. The motion, bow
ever, was hardly noticeable to work
men and they had no Idea of their
deadly peril until the great mass of
wooa auairua oegin to win,-'
The span would have been complet
ed this afternoon and after the trav
taller could hayvi been fastened to the
pier there would have been no danger
of tho wind or current breaking it
down. Tbo pile driver was sent to the
'Bcene this afternoon and the work of
clearing away the wreckage und search
ing for the dead under the cjebris was
at once commenced.
The list of dead, injured and missing
Is as follews:
Dead L. O. Oarlock, Buffalo; John
Courtney, F, Burns, O. Murphy, O. W.

The Bst End Improvement cim
pany has been acting as the limited
agent In the construction of the bridge
under a reorganization during last
March when the property wai.dlsposed
of to a syndicate ooutrol'ed by three
roads, generally believed to ue tue nig
Four, Chespeake and Oblo aud B. and
S. W., for the purpose of completing
the bridge and providing suitable ter
minal facilities a bond issue of f5,000,

the enterprise and the work of com
pletlng the structure has been going oa
rapidly since.
The span thai gavejway was the last
but one needed to complete the struo
