Services wero being held on the second flow of the building. A defective Sue set fire to the chiuiuej*. causing smoke | to issue through the crevices iu the i floor near the pulpit. The room was well filled at 111? lime, and the cry of "Fire!"' coupled with the sight of suioke. throw the congregation into a pauic. ; A wild rush was made for the stairs, despite the efforts of the Rev E. W. Johnson, the pastor, to allay the fears of the frenzied people. All wanted to get out at one?, and men, women and children alike were knocked down and trampled upon by tnose pusumg num behind. The stairway to the first floor ( had one sharp turn in it. and the frightened people became so tightly wedged in the bpnd of the staircase that the frail wooden bannister gave way. precipitating many to the floor below. I The crash and the screams and shrieks of the women and t?.e children added- to the frenzy of those above. They did not stop in their onward rush to get out. Notwithstanding the wide open doors on the first floor leading to the street the crush was so great that eighteen persons had the life stamped out of them before the pauic was ended. A general alarm was seut in for ambulances, .firemen and policemen. In the meantime the greatest confusion i-eigned A crowd gathered and the work of rescue was promptly started. The dead and injured were quickly taken to hospitals and near-by houses. The fire was only trifling, the flames, being extinguished before the firemen arrived. | The most of the dead were taken off the hall floor. The dead and dying j were piled up in-the hall until the crowd fought its way over them to the | street. ' The entrance even was filled I with many'women, all of whom, were) insensible. No mercy was shown oy any one iu tlie panic. Men and women fought one another with terrible fury, and hardly a person came out of the buildiug without torn clothes or injury of wine nature There were remarkable scenes outside the church when the work of rescue was in progress. Members of the congregation who had come through in comparative safety unnerved by their experience rushed about in the streets shouting at the top of their voices that there was no cause for the panic. It seemed as if some of the men wer?> half crazed, and it was with great difficulty that they were quieted. The demonstrative excitement of those who fled the church greatly interfered with the firemen and policemen working to clear the hall. One of the last bodies to be .taken out was that of a child about five'years old. '?The tot's head had been crushed by a mail's heel. BIG MINE EXPLOSION. Fortunately Many of tho Men Were .

Most of those on the ship were asleep when the explosion occurred. The big war vessel seemed to fall apart, and before any one could tell just what had happened the vessel sank. There had been no time to lower a boat, and those who were saved were picked up by boats sent out by the other vessels. Four Rear-Admirals?DeRocha, Da Sraca, Candido-Brazil and De Larrigo ?and 212 men lost their lives when Ihe ship sank. Some were hurled out af their bunks by the explosion and many of theui were killed outright. The others were drowned iu their.cabins. Ninety-eight of those aboard- were ?aved. There will be a national funeral for the victims. Just how the explosion occurred in the powder magazine has not been determined and probably never will be. rhe entire sea tragedy happened so luickly that none of the survivors had time to note anything. Those on the ather vessels lying in the harbor, simolv know that a moment before the explosion they saw tbe outline of tbe Aquidaban and that everything aboard seemed to be all l'ight. Then came a loud report, part of the vessel seemed to be torn from the other part, and three minutes later she sank beneath the waves. There was not an outcry from those,on board the ship, and outside of the loud report,aud tbe disappearance of the ship there was nothing to show tha terrible tragedy that had t)een enacted. , The loss of the Aquidaban 5s a serious blow to the Brazilian Navy. The ressel took a prominent part in the revJlution of 1893-94, having been the 3agsbip of Admiral Custodio Jose de Mello, who for a time was Minister of Marine, and who secretly seized the Brazilian warships in the harbor| of Rio Janeiro and declared against Presileut Peixoto.

Victoria. British Colombia.?Tlie steamship Valencia of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company's passenger fleet, which has temporarily replaced Ihe City of Pueblo on the San Francisco-Puget Sound route, pending re pairs to the regular boat, was driven to destruction in a dense midnight fog ten miles east of Cape Benle. which marks the northern entrance to Puget Sound. ; Between sixty ;;nd seventy lives were lost. Of' the ninety-four, passengers and sixty members of tb?? crew on the Va. lencia only df*epu are known to have been saved. The steamer Qmen arrived back from the scene of the disaster iu Hie evening about G o'clock, her place having been taken by the Topeka, belougiusr to the same company. Th^ Queen reported that tbe wreck was high up on the rooks, more than 100 yards from the shore, aud wiih the wares running mountains high and the wind blowing a gale right on shore. On this account it was impossible to get within a mile of the wreck. With the telescope figures could he distinctly seen on the deck and cliuging lo the rigging, hut It was impossible to tell whether these were men or women. The tug Czar and the salvage boat Salvor were also lying off the shore, but they were as helpless as the Queen, it being impossible for even the tug to get" within a mile of the Valencia. Officers of the Valencia thought they were near Urtiatilla Reef Lightship when the vessel drove in on the Vaurouver Island coast. Soundings had been taken and thirty fathoms had been reported a few minutes before the vessel struck. When the Valencia hit the rock her engines were reversed and the steamer succeeded in backing off into deep water. She immediately began to till, and the water rose so quickly that the engineer and firemen were driven from the engine room, and the only rhance to save the lives of any one on board was to drive the vessel ashore. When toe boats were lowered soon after the vessel struck there was a great loss of life. The boats, filled with women and .children, were smashed against the side of the steamer aud all iu them were lost. The lights had gone, out by this time and llie crew couia not see ro wovk. Several boats and three life raft* were lowered. Only two of them liavt? been heard from and the survivors say at least fifty were drowned alongside the steamer. The fifteen persons known to be saved are F. F. Junker, formerly assistant superintendent of schools at Santa Rosa. Cal., who lost his wife and two daughters: J.

A little boy of five was cast back upon the ship after being pyvept overboard while running about the deck crying for his mother, whom the waters had engulfed. I BURTON DRAWS MILEAGE. Remarkable rrocedur. by Whicu He Was "Seen in the Chamber." Washington. D. C.?One of the most remarkable procedures in the history of the Senate occurred in order to avoid a technicality which prevented Senator Burton, of Kansas, from drawing his mileage for the present session. In order to have his requisition honored it is necessary for some official of the Senate to take oath that he has seen the Senator in the chamber, but since the indictment and conviction of the Kansas Senator he has not appeared there. There is no disposition on the part of any one to withhold the mileage, ^nd the Senator, therefore, was aske$ to step from the cloakroom into the chamber for a moment in ordei' that tye might be seen by some official. He declined. but an employe engaged him in conversation in the cloakroom, near the entrauee to the chamber.

Leaders on both sides knew that much depended on a tr full attendance, and the full strength tli of both the Republican and the Democratic forces was represented, with the u exception of ten absentees, six Democrats and font Republicans. The Re- ^ publican whip. I|Cr. Watson, of In- i diana', and the Democratic iwhip, Mr. p< Lloyd, of Missouri, were everywhere in evidence.. Up to the last miuute the st "insurgents" declared tGat: they"1 could1 w muster fifty-four votes against the l adoption of the rule, but the "stal- p( warts" awaited the result with confidence, knowing that when party lines ^ were drawn the victory would go to * the organization. No effort was spared jj by the House managers, however, to make the victory as complete as pos- ftj sible. At least four members who w had left the city were summoned back y to vote. Two of them were met at the railroad statiou and rushed to the Capitol post haste, William Aideu Smith, ?c of Michigan, being just in time to vow on the first roll call. ' . Speaker Cannon was greatly pleased with the result of tiie vote, "uouki-.ii ulate the united Republican party, not me," he said to the many who came to congratulate him.
