"Brooks Arcade." Stat? Street, Corner TO fltV BIT OF POLITICAL HISTORY. H.w Quay 8ave.l .?w York for larrion at the Kisk of His Own Life. I'Hti.Ai.Ki.iMiiA, Pa., March ''l. A morn-in- s paper prints the History of the political campaign at 1888 and Senator (Quay's allowed thwartititj of the ballot frauds In New York city at the risk or his life. Quay, it is said, canvassed the lower wards of .New York, mapped and ctntlusd them, and, when in October the democrats learned of his actions, the story allinus that Mr. Quay's life was threatened and his friends alarmed. Oillcers were kent constantly watchinir for his wel- - fare day and night. By the aid of I'olici Commissioner French, Quay is said to have got early election returns and blocked the alleged purpose of the democrat! to change the figures in New York and Brooklyn, it oc-casion should seetn to require. The story contains tiiese assertions: "C hairman Quay had not en long in harness before he dis-covered that Blaine had carried the slate in 1884; the democratic managers knew this early in the evening and the changes of bal-lots necessary to elect Cleveland. Ben But-ler was running on the third ticket several thousand labor votes in New York city. It was the easiest thing in the world for the ballot thieves to turn the But-.l-ballots over to Cleveland. This was ac- - lually done. Quay unearthed the fact before he had lung been in command, and the dis- - covery received the endorsement of General Butler himself. Three days before the elec-tion the sum of i'.'l.buO was handed over to the democratic workers in the state above the Harlem river. This was entirely (operate from the, amount used by Tammany In the city. A PLAY TO GAIN TIME. Speculation 111 Regard t. Salisbury s An-swer siUer Has the Itibt .f Way-Ot- her Washington Notes. Wasiiinoton, March '31. The nature of the reply of Lord Salisbury to thf last note from the state department relative to the re-newal of the ml't. viivmli for the conduct of the seal tlsherics of the Bearing sea is known to nobody in Washington except the presi. dent, the British minister and a very few officials of the department of state. Even the republican members of the senate com-mittee on foreign relations aud the house committee on foreign affatrv, usually In-formed promptly of any new phase in negotiations, are in ignorance of its contents. The conclusion is drawn by sojie from this omission on the part ol the ad-ministration to inform then upon the sub-ject that is not inconclusive as to the main point in controversy ; namely, the extent of protection to be alforded seal life In the Be-ring sea. It is believed that if Salisbury had ac-ceded to the request of the president for a renewal of the modus vcvendi the fact would have been immediately communicated to the senate. The belief of the senators is that he made the note the vehicle for the ex-tension of his argument on the limit of the protected area proposed by him as amply sufficient to meet all the, necessi-ties of the case. One senator declared, emphatically: "It is only a play for time on the part of the British government." His theory is that the government will ul-timately consent to the renewal of the nurtlax Vivendi, but w ill delay action so long that the agreement will be made ineffective through the departure for the seal grounds of a large number of I anadian sealing vessels. This view finds many adherents among the senators, aud it can be asserted that if this policy should become clearly defined the senate will bo a unit In supporting the ad-ministration in fhe most energetic effort tr enforce the laws on the statute books rela-tive to the protection of the rights of the I United 8talcs in the Bering sea. lit the Senate Today. Washisoto.v, March 21. In the senate this morning a communication from the president of the United 8tates was received with information from the state department as to the purchasing of the unpublished cor-respondence aud manuscripts of President Monroe. Also two communication from the interior department, one as to the Cherokee ownership of Cherokee Outlet, and the other as to the safety of the rooms in the patent otlice, endangered by the storage of heavy papers. Over hall an hour was occupied in the pleseutatiou of memorials, most of them from state exchanges ou a great variety of subjects. In the House Today. Washinoton, March 21. In the house, Knloe of Tennessee oifered a resolution calling on the secretary of the treasury for a list of all persons employed in the coast and geodetic survey whose salaries were in-creased or decreased during 1890; also for a list of those dismissed or who resigned dur-ing the ear. Enloe said he had information from a dis-charged employe that the coast survey was in the hands of a ring. The resolution was adopted. The committee on printing reported in favor of expunging from the Congressional Record of the 17th all that portion of the speech of Walker of Massachusetts which rcferrs to the mugwumps, etc., hut which was not delivered. The house then went into committee of the w hole on the army appropriation bill. Tlio Week's Programme. Washington, March 31. The proceeding in the house during the week will be more than usually Interesting, as the Bland silver bill is the special order for the three days beginning tomorrow. A great many mem-bers desire to speak on the silver question, and an effort will oe made, to reach an as: between the friends and opponents of free coinage to provide that debate and con-sideration of the bill by paragraphs shall run the whole week. No understanding will be reached, how-ever, as lite silver men want the agreement to include the stipulation that a vote shall be taken at the end of the week without in-dulgence In filibustering tactics. Hut the anti-fre- coinage democrats are not, as a body, willing to bind themselves In this par-ticular. Some of the opponents of the bill discouras."-- filibustering, br.t others believe that they should use. every proper method within their means to defeat it. Unless the silver question runs through the week, Friday and two hours of y will be given up either to bills re-lating to private claims or to the naval ap-propriation hill. lu the senate the Indian appropriation hill was taken uptiday. The West Virginia direct tax bill is on for Tuesday, and imme-diately after that bill is disposed of, two bills of uuch public interest will be consid-ered, namely, the Mississippi river and the Columbia river improvement bills, involving Contintud on J'tige Five. A Commoner Kxpellod, Lofdon, March Bl. In the house of com-rnon- George Woodyatt Hastings 'liberal), for the eastern division of Worcestershire, convicted oi appropriating moneys and se-curities received as trustee under the will of John Brown and sentenced to five years' penal servitude, was expelled. Replying to a question put to the govern-ment on t!n- subject of James Lowther, the parliamentary secretary for the foreign oflice, stated that a final understanding be-tween Great Britain and the United States in regard to the Behring sea question had not yet been arrived at. He added that the ne-gotiations were still proceeding. HIS LITTLE RIFLE. A Dramatic Incident in the Stubborn Struggle. Over the Eureka Townsite. A Squatter Tells How He Stood Off "A Mob" of 100 With a Winohester, THE LATEST FROM THE WAR Assay er Hanauer Takes Some Substance but Faiis to Find Any Mineral. IT IS A "SUBSTANCE," A Summary of the Teatinuniy During I ho lay No OUpoaitiou oo the Fort of the Lawyers to Set a Tluko lor Ushering the Knd, The day in the Eureka townslto war was, at times, quite dramatic, and showed that the deadly Winchester had a few days since taken a determined but bloodless hand in the struggle. It foretells much trouble yet and is another case wherein history repeats itself. These wars have taken place in neat ly all the large camps and hitter feuds have been the result. In the proceedings today Peterson tel.s how he was confronted by a whole battollou, aud how he resorted to arms. Max Hanauer shed some light on the cbarater of the ground and altogether the session was an extremely lively one. The Testimony. The case was opened this morning by the towusite applicants putting Max 8. Hanauer on the stand. He testified to the fact that he lived in Salt Lake, was id years of age, and was an assayer and chemist. A certifi-cate of assay was handed to him aud he was asked if he made the assay. He testified he had, and had found no trace of load, silver or gold. Mr. Bird, attorney for the mine owners, objected to the testimony as the assay had not been identified aa coming from the ore taken from any portion of the land in dispute. V. N. Peterson was then recalled for the townslte applicants, aud the certificate of assay handed him for inspection. "Did you ever see that certificate before V "Yes sir." "Krom whom did you receive it? "From Mr. Hanauer. the last witness. " "Did you deliver to him to be assayed a sample of substance?" 'Yes sir." "Where did you get the sample that you delivered to him to be assayed?" 'I'roni I'owerH' Tunnel." "Ou what mining claim and in what place ':" "The claim known as the Diablo, In Eure-ka precinct, in the towusite of Eureka ap-plication." "From where did you take the sample; was it from substance in place or debris?" "Krom substance in olaee." "Have you been engaged in practical mlningr '. v. .;-- . "Not lb late years, but 1 have been." i "Do you know enough about mining to - distinguish ore when you see it; aud what was your object in selecting this sample ?" "Yes sir. My object was to get it at the place where it was claimed there was a vein running through the tunnel." "State whether or not you selected a sam-ple most Indicative of Mineralization." "I selected this sample in the best place I could find and as near as I could get to the place where the sample had been taken for Mr. Powers." "Who had possession of that sample from the time it was taken up to the time of de-livering it to the assayer, as you have stated?7' "I had myself." Cross examination. "1 will ask you if since you testified In this case, I mean prior to this date, you have not gone upon and jumped laud em. braced within the Last Chance mining claim?" "No sir." "I will ask you if yon have not commenced the construction of a house since you testi-fied, within towusite limits aud upon that claim ?" "Yes sir." "Did not John MeCrystal forbid you build, ing there and tell you that he owned the control of the land?" "Yes, sir; and I told Mr. McChrystal that that lead was owned long before he was known in Eureka," "At the time of your jumping this land, you knew that it was upon The Excluded (.round, or ground that was attempted to be excluded did you not?" "That ground was excluded from the townsiters by McChrystal, aud he nas given a bond for a de d tor the same." "When you commenced the construction of that house did Mr. John McChrystal ob-ject to it?" "No, sir." "Didn't he go up to them anddemand pos-session of the property and forbid you build-ing?" "He sent a posse of upwards of one hun-dred men to tear It down and to remove the same." "Was he with the party himself?" "No, sir." "Was lie at any time when you were at work on the house?" "Yes, sir." ' Now, I will ask you If at the time Mr. MeCrystal came up to see you about this house, if you did not hold the same against him by "Force of Arms?" "I held it against the mob, which came to take possession." "W ith what arms?" "A Winchester ritle." "How did you happen to take a Winches, ter ritle there with you?" "That is the only way I could protect my-self and property from the mob. "Why did you go on this gn und and tako a Winchester rille before any mob as you term It or anyone else had appeared there?" "When Mr. May came by at noon he asked the Carpenters who was doing that work, aud they replied it was Mr. Peterson. 'We shall remove that In fifteen minutes,' was the reply Mr. May gave, and while I was eating my dinner I saw about 100 men coming over the hill with Mr. May In the lead. I got on gun and got there just ahsad of them and told them to stop and not come inside mj property, and he said 'that's all right,' and went and got a paper and had me ar-rested for pulling a gun on them. I gave bond and returned to my work at once." The Brand Trunk Defiant. Tobonto, Ont., March '21. The threatened trouble between the Grand Trunk and the employees is exciting much interest here.

The local manager of the company states that should a strike occur all the shops and freight sheds will immediately close down, throw-jU- g 1000 men out of work. He says the company is fully prepared for any emer-gency. OUR MILITARY NEEDS. General Nelson A. Miles Urges the Speedy Mobilization of the Army aud the Ntitionat Guard. Washinoton. March 31. General Nelson A. Miles, in an interview, speaking of the army and navy and the National guard, said: "In proportion to our wealth and popula-tion, the army is reduced to its extreme minimum. It la small, but most eftlcient. In intelligence, courage and patriotism it will compare favorably with any in the world. The same may be said of the guard, yet, In order to have them properly equipped and prepared, one of two things must be done; either the press of the country must tell the plain truth and edu- - cate the public mind up to our real condi-tion and necessities, or we must meet some disaster that may check our progress and burden us with a national debt that would last for another generation. "Too much is expected of our navy, it is ludicrous to think of holding the navy re-sponsible for 4000 miles of frontier. Fortifi-cations will some day receive from the American people the consideration such de-fenses deserve. The necessity for some mo-bilization of the regular army and the Na-tional guard must be apparent to every thinking man. The object of the national encampment to be held August, 1888, will be to promote the efficiency of the National guard, to give officers experience in the handling of large bodies of troops, and to promote a fraternal feeling between the state troops from all pails of thy country." Threatening Hlaoks. Mozambique, March 21. A dispatch from Qullimane, besieged by 8000 natives, states that the blacks have assumed a most menac-ing attitude. They momentarily threaten to attack.
