The British steamer Drurnmond Castle, Captain Pierce, from Capetown for London; struck' a rock at midnight, while hugging the French coast, sank and disappeared entirely in about three minutes after striking. Only two boats were launched, and one of these is believed to have been capsized. The pas sengers are thought to have been asleep when the vefesel struck. There were 144 passengers and 103 officers and crew on board. Only three Were rescued. ; A- Bootblack's Scheme.

New. York Little Falls, N. Y., June 19. At the Taylor Cycle Park, one mile west of this 1 city, where the state meet of the L. A. V . was to take place, f ho steam yacht Titus Sheard exploded her boiler .as she was be ing moored yesterday afternoon. Ten of the crowd were killed outright, one died while on the way to the hospital, and .two others have since died. The boat was blown to splinters, and pieces of the boiler, were thrown 500 feet. Three , of the bodies have not been recovered and are believed to be in the Erie canal, where the catastrophe occurred. The dead are : Charles AVorsnouth, hotel proprietor; Edward Tressett, pilot ; William Symonds, saloonkeeper.; Charles Bradford, barten der ; Eton Walker saloonkeeper"; Thomas Hall, mill operative ; George White, su perintendent Eagle mills; Miss Anna Golden, . daughter of Augustus Golden ; .Vanburen Youngs, engineer; William Wormouth, locktbnder. Three unknown bodies not recovered. Fatally injured: George Benmnn, mill operative ; Mrs. Irving Stroup. All the dead and injured thus far ac- - counted for lived in vthis cjry. Many cyclers aided in the rescue of those who were not killed. Many of the bodies were badly inangled, and in some cases identification was diffi cult. Medical assistance was hard to ?oh tain, -and in the meantime the injured were cared for in the best way possible, the coats and blankets of the wheelmen -being turned over for their comfort. , The explosion is believed to havere suited from the- defective working of the pump connected with the boilers. ( -THE PRESIDENT, ON SILVER . i Cleveland's Advice to delegates to the Democratic National Convention. -' Wasiiixgtox, June 17. In reply to a request from the New York Herald for a statement concerning the Democratic sit uation, President Cleveland last night sent the following, to that newspaper : "I have made no figures as to the prob . able action of delegates already chosen or to be chosen to the Democratic national convention,-but I refuse to believe tha.t when the time arrives for deliberate action there will be engrafted upon' our Demo cratic cresd a demand for the ffee, linhm ited and independent coinage of silver. I cannot believe this ijceaus I . know the Democratic party is neither tmpatriotic nor foolish, and because it seems so clear to me that such a course will inflict a very great injury upon every interest of our country, which it has been the mission of Democracy to advance, and will result in lasting disaster to our party organization. "There is little hope that as a means of -success this free silver proposition, after its thorough discussion during a political campaign, will attract a majority of the ,'yoters of the country. It must be that many of the illusions influencing those now relying upon this alleged panacea for their ills will be dispelled before the time comes for them to cast their ballots, which will express their sober second thought. The adoption by th.3 Democracy of this proposition would, I believe, give to our opponents an advantage both in the present and future, which they do not de serve." . An Octogenarian's ChUd Wife. Joxesvi"Lle, Va., June 22. Jake Turner, an octogenarian, who has been married five times and is the father of forty-six children, has just been married to Nellie Van . Bebbcr, of Harlan county, aged .14. She is the granddaughter of John Parton, whose son was the leades in the Parton Turner feud of twelve years ago. The .
