'PARTICULARS. OF THE CATASTROPHE
ONOMICH, midnight, September 4th. The United States transport Morgan City has been wrecked on the shores of the Inland Sea at a spot some ten miles distant from the town of Onemichi which is equi-distant between the well known Japanese poris Yokohama and Nagasaki. A disaster which might have been a dramatic tragedy of the war,, the loss of the ship, owing to favourable circumstances, has

The forgan Cily left San Francisco on toth August, carrying goo officers, and men of the -United States regular Army with 6 of a crew. The regiments represented in this large ang- imentation of the Army in the Philippines are the 3rd, 4th, 14th, 18th, 21st, 3rd, 5th 14th Cavalry, and one Company of the Signal Corps. Major Wittich is in command of the troops. First-Lieutenant Caster is the managing commander of the ship and Capt. Dorris is in full command. Arriving at Kobe on Friday evening, direct from San Francisco, the Morgan City lay an hour there before proceeding, on ber voyage. Her course was through the Inland Sea to reach Nagasaki where she was due to ship coal and water. A pilot was taken from Kobe and it is stated in explanation of what befell the vessel that he (the pilot) had been on duty without sleep for 36 hours on end previous to taking charge of the Morgan City The night between Friday and Saturday proved dull, foggy and rainy as midnight passed, The difficulties in the navigation of the Inland Sen were, however, safely passed for some hundred or so miles of the way. The ship's striking occurred at about 3.400 Saturday morning, when, as stated, the transport was within or lo iniles of being abreast of Onomichi. The signal of her danger was con- veyed to the guard on duty by the sounding of the "Slow" and "Full Speed Astern" gongs. As it afterwards appeared the ship was dis- covered to be working for the point of an island, on striking which, according to the calculation of the pilot, so it is stated, she would have ripped open her side and sunk at once in deep water with what result to the vast ship's com pany can easily be imagined. It was seen, that it was impossible to clear the point so the helmy was put up as hard a port and as speedily as it might. The effect of porting the helm, it was seen, would be the ripping open of the vessel's side as described. The course decided on to save this catastrophe. was that of keeping the ship's head straight on to the hand with the order previous ly given of course for full speed astern. The transport took the land with a heavy jar which awoke everybody on board and indicated that her speed must must have, been but about half reduced from the time the order for fulf speed astern was given. The grounding brought the troops on deck at once but from
ail accounts there was neither confusion nor even great alarm from the time the ship first' struck to the time when the shipwrecked men bivouacked under shreds of her canvas on the beach. The officers, were around directing their men simply to obey orders, there being no immediate danger or call for excitement. These orders were taken in the spirit in which they were given and were generally observed, The land was easily seen from the ship's deck, the vessel being in fact to all appearance right on top of the rocks lining the shore of the island

LAYING THE DUST.
A HIST FOR THE PAST
The Merchants' Association of San Francisco has been trying the experiment of sprinkling street with sea water says Appleton's Popular | Science Monthly, and finds that such water binds the dirt together between the paving stones, so that when it is dry no loose dust is formed to be raised by the wind; that sea water does not dry so quickly as fresh water, so that it has been claimed when salt water has been used that one load of it is equal to three loads of fresh water. The salt water, which is de posited on the street absorbs moisture from the air during the night, whereby the street is thoroughly moist during the early morning, and has the appearance of having been freshly sprinkled.
THE NEW U. S. SECRETARY
OF WAR..
The appointment of Elihu Root, of New. York, to the war portfolio, made vacant by e resignation of General Alger, seems to be, with few exceptions, received with favor by news- papers of every political complexion. The following sketch of his career appears in the
news columns of the New York Sun.
"Elihu Root was born on February 15th, 1845, in Clinton, Oneida Co., the son of Dr. Oren Root, until a few years ago professor emeritus of mathematics, mineralogy, and gealogy in Hamilton College. Dr. Root was a man of fine taste in literature and of solid and varied learning. He was succeeded in his professorship by his son, the Rev. Orea Root Elihu Root was graduated from Hamilton in 1864, valedictorian of his class. Although distin- guished in college by literary and scientific tastes, and proficient in classics and abstract science, he early determined to study for the bar. He taught for a year after leaving college in the academy at Rome, not far from Clinton, and then came to New York. Here he studied law under John Norton Pomeroy. He look a course in law at the New York University, and was admitted to the bar in 1857. Since that time he has practised lady continuously in New York.
"The first case of importance in which Mr. Root was retained was the suit of the People es. Ingersoll, in which he successfully con- tended against Charles O'Conor's theory that the State instead of the country was the proper party to suc for money alleged to have been laken from the country. He exhibited such readiness of resource and such a through knowledge of the technicalities of law that his abilities were never after allowed to lie fallow. In many of the important cases with have since aroused the public interest he has been employed. He conducted the defense of Stephen B. French president of the Police Board, and obtained a legal triumph. He has been retained by many of the great cor." porations, and has been especially prominent, in railroad and will cases.
The New York World (Ind. Dem.), however, thinks air. Root no better than General Alger:
very able corporation lawyer, a defender au
If the War Department is in need of a organizer of trusts, then the appointment of Mr. Root is admirable, ‘ideal.' lí ́à man fit to direct war affairs is needed, thea the selection is a bad one.
"Mr. Root is just as unfit for the place as Alger was, though his unfitness is different-in kind. The man wanted at this critical juncture at the head of the War Department is a great adminis trator or a man familiar with military affairs and requirements, or, better still, a man who com- bines bath-these-qualifications
"The appointnient of Elihu Root is a con spicuously unwise one made for personal and polítical, not for military or administrative reasons."-Literaży Digest.
