sea; while the other three, who had omitted to put on their'life-belts, " struck out" for the shore and have not since been heard of. The officer had a presentiment of his fate, and as he left the ship ex claimed : "This means good-bye to my wife and family ; I shan't see them again. Although the natives of Sokotra are said to be friendly, still .there are no villages near the scene of the catastrophe. Th,e men, if they reached the shore, must have been exhausted by rowing and swimming ; and they had neither food nor water nor means of sheltering themselves from the tropical sun, there being no trees or vegeta tion on the island, so far as could be seen from the ship : so that the chances of their being saved seem- small. To return to the Oder—all praise is due to the officers, men, and stewards for the calmness and cheerfulness shown by them from first to last. At daybreak the boats were lowered, and those on the weather side were-brought round to leeward inja very seaman-like manner. One .boat was "swamped," but was recovered and "pumped out." Another, one of the largest, was lost altogether ; the "after;" fall carrying away as she,was being ' ' hoisted up " on the leeside, making, with that sent ashore, a. loss of two of our boats. We Were preparing to abandon the ship when the joyful cry of "A steamer !" was heard. The steamer proved to be the Cyclops, 1,403 tons, one of Messrs Holt's blue-funnelline, Captain Nish. ,Our guns were fired and rockets sent up, and the Cyclops bore down on "us, arid all were taken on board, with the exception of the four poor men of the capsized boat; and the Cyclops, which was bound for Colombo, turned round for Aden, the nearest port, having but little accommodation for 171 souls so unexpec tedly placed oh board her. One unfortunate lady, Mrs Fleischer, a passenger from China, was not fated to reach the shore. She had been ill on board the Oder and the. shock of the wreck proved too much for her, and she expired on board the Cyclops about two hours after we dropped anchor' at Aden. It, was a pitiful sight to see her two charming little daughters attending the funeral on the following morning and throwing earth on the coliin^ apparently unconscious that they would never see their loving mother again in this world.

THE SHOOTING OF BISHOP.

INTERVIEW WITH THE PARTIES.

The San Francisco "Chonicle," describ ing the shooting affray on the Alameda, says : A woman, tall, portly, and overdres sed, lingering the Oceanic dock yesterday morning, from, which the steam ship Alameda was advertised to 'sail. She explained to police and ship's.officers whom" she- accosted that she was waiting for £ friend who intended to leave oh the steamer- She ransacked the staterooms and the whore ship In searcli of her "frlendV' ' ~„„-.-..

At last.the passengers commenced to' arrive, and .finally "a little old man, carrying -a lot of luggage and bundles, waddled up the gangplank and made1 his way down- to the .steerage quar ters. :The woman who had been wait ing suddenly grew animated with excite ment, and followed the little man down the jatchway. She had found her friend. .;A. moment or so .later persons in the 'teerage were startled by the report of a Mistol in their midst. The little" man, who oad apparently just sluug his luggage in a bunknad"turned around, was" now press ing his hand ß to his abdomen convulsively, while he bent himself nearly double with every expression of pain. A few feet in. front of him stood the tall-and portly woman, a smoking revolver in her right, hand, 'which, she ..had., still pointed at the little man. Ex-Officer Pat rick:Coyle,-now a railroad agent, who was standing near, sprang forward, knocked down her arm and took away her weapon. Captain Kentzel next appeared, and took the woman into ciistody, while officer Clin ton called a hack, and conveyed the woman and her victim to the old City Hall., Police,.. Surgeon MartineautVOxam- . in6d the wounded man'arid^discovered the bullet in the back, of tlie left side near the floating ribs. .It had -entered near the centre of the body'just below the point of the breastbone^ "The surgeon, cut the bullet, as it had lodged hear the surface.

" But I could heal the wound through the action of my mind on his. That is the kind of a healer I am."

Mrs Yon is a very uervous woman, talks rapidly, laughs a great deal, and is strik ingly similar in temperament to the no torious Mrs Kerrigan and looks not unlike her in personal appearance. "I've been feeling quite lonely," she said, glancing about her cell. "I'm glad you have come to talk to me."

The next instant she assuringly ex plained : " I have no pistol and you are quite safe." She is charged with assault to murder. Later in the evening, during her garru lous remarks, Mrs You stated that she had made arrangements with the steward of the vessel to g-o to Australia with him. She said also she had been searching for Bishop for two weeks in order to serve a notice of appeal in the Justices' Court case, but had been unable to find him. Bishop at a lato hour was writhing in agony;

DEATH OF BISHOP.

Bishop died at 4.15 July 3rd at a Todging-nouse at the corner of Washington street and Dunbar alley. On Saturday afternoon Bishop was very troublesome in the city receiving hospital refusing to permit Drs. Buckley and Martineant to make an examination of his wound or to take any medicine offered to him. He in sisted upon leaving the hospital, and the doctors, thinking it best to accede to his request, permitted his removal. The only person present at the death was John Ire land, a hired nurse, who states that Bishop Was perfectly conscious when he died, but although asked to make a will made no re sponse. The doctors believe that death resulted from the chest cavity being perforated by the bullet. An autopsy will be held and the inquest will take place on Wednes day. Mrs Yon did not betray any sorrow whon she was informed of Bishop's death. A charge of murder has been booked against her.

AMERICAN SUMMARY.

San Fbancisco, July 29.

, The proposition to make San Diego, in Southern California, a port of call for the Australian mail steamers to and from San Francisco, is being favourably entertained by J. D. Spreckels and Co., the contractors and owners of the line. Spreckles and a party visited San Diego recently in relation to the matter. The Ear,l of Aberdeen was feasted by 200 Irish-American and other citizens, on July 7th, at St. Paul, Minnesota. He evaded, with great tact, all efforts to draw him out on the Irish question. The counsel of Hugh M. Brooks, alias Maxwell, »sentenced at St. Louis to be hanged, August 26th, for the murder of C. Arthur Preller, .have refused to carry his case to the higher Court, and he therefore-will be hanged at the time fixed. A railroad accident occurred, July 28th, on the Atlantic and Pacific line, near a ?lace called the Needles, in New Mexico, 'he engine of a freight , train plunged full speed into a dry creek, and the firieman Sparkes was killed; and his body biirhed in the , blazing train. Gibson, tho brakeman, was also fatally injured. Loss to tho Company about $90,000. An engineer, fireman and brake man were killed, the same day, in a collision on a Missouri rpad. Orders were mistaken.

Harris Hirsch,- familiarly called Rabbi Hirsch, a Polish Jew, died in New York,. .on^Jule 28th, _at _the advanced age of 109 years. He was born near War saw,, and with eight of his brothers served under Napoleon through the Conscription. The Pope refuses to. mterefere in any way with the AmOridan ' Order of the Knights of Labour; an order, ,it may be added, that is showing a remarkably rapid decrease .in membership. At the recent quarterly convention in Fall River, Mass., it.was shown thatDistrictAssembly No. 30, of that State had decreased from 83,000 members to 27,000. .

8,. P,; Clement President of the Citizen's Savings Bank of Leavenworth, Kansas, was. defaulted .to the tune 0f.5Q,000d01, and levanted on July 27th. Wheat speculation did it.

Two railway accidents, occurred on July 27. A construOtiori trairi was i*un into on the Chicago-and Alton-Road, killing-many labourers, and a misplaced switch pn-Jhe Baltimore and Ohio, -at York, Indiana, killed the engineer and foreman Of the ex-. press, and mortally wounded the engineer of the freight trairi. A-Sporting man, and one of'themanagers of the California 'Athletic Club, in Galfbrhia known as Jack Seymour, committed suicide by drowning in ■ the; bay, early in July. His body was discovered float ing on the 18th. He was anativeof Australia about 37 years of age, and came to San Fran cisco abou^fiye years ago, where he became identified with the .sporting fraternity, of the city. For some, time he was manager of Harry Maynard's sporting hpusein Pine street, fie married in San Francisco, aboufcthirteen months ago. Seymour was looked upon always by the fancy as a "square .'.man,, and .one unusually sensi tive, for his line of life. The reSson for ..committing suicide was a shortage in his accounts with Matthews, his partner in management'of the Club.

Sir John Thurston, Governor of "the "Fiji Islands, whose.isuppojedj_missipn_to the "United "SEates" Government has been so -freely .commented on by the. American papers, was"iir Washington.onjuly 26. The New York's "Post's"correspondent says this fact is abouTalf the "foundation there is for the current statement that.he has come to make some arrangements with the United States Government .as to .the •Samoan Islands. The State Department officials say that they have.no knowledge of the diplomatic purpose ■which, the Governor has to accomplish by.being here, and there fore are compelled to 'credit his own state ment that, lie has come simply on.his way to Europe", to see the country, and for plea sure.
