WASHINGTON, April q.


SEyATE.-On motion of MIR. Benjamin
resolution was adopted calling on the
Secretary of State for information relative
TO the extent to which the transportation
of laborers is now being carried on, from
the continent Of Asia or any of the Asiatic
Islands, 10 America, and whether said Ia
borers be termed slaves, coolies, or appren-
tices; also to show the manner in which
they are treated on the passage ard after
their arrival, together with any statistics
he may possess, showing the sacrifice OF
human life attending this traffic.
Good for you, Mr.. Ben ujamin; but why
not denounce the African slave trade also,
foreign and domestic, and stop the bad
treatment and loss of life attending the
suhjugation Of one race of men to another,

The three million armament bill was

no civilized nation on earth which permits

INTERESTING RELIcs.-In ChaSnaram
Gus Bay, about ten miles to the west of
the port of Spain, in the Island of Trim
dad, have been found, in about six faith
oms of water, the remains Of Spanish
feet commanded by ArADocA, at the time
the English expedition under HARVEY
and ABERcRoMBINE, sailed from Martin
ique for the sufj1eation Of that Island
in 1897. The Spanish vessels were five
in number-four line of battle ships and
one frigate-all being perfect specimens
of naval architecture, and which, for bet
ter protection, had been placed under
cover of the guns and mortars of the Fort
of Gasparillo. When the English fleet
anchored within rance Anor-'---
.ug the Impossibility Of escape, without
engaging, set his vessc,s on fire to prevent .
them falling into the hands of the enemy,
the money having been landed on the op-
posite coast. One of the line of battle .
ships, being windward of the rest, was
eventually captured by the English, but
four burned to the waters edge and sunk
with the guns. The Schooner Searsville,
Capt. SEARS, arrived on Saturday, was
loaded principally with iron guns, about
ninety in number, taken from the sunken
ships, having been raised by submarine

The City.


We desire the people of st. Paul to exam
inc the reports of the executive, judicial and
dlsbursing Offices connected with the present
City Government, which appear in the Coun-
Gil proceedings published this morning. Any
voter who examines these reports and has
thereafter an honest desire to change any Of
these officers at the coming election, is well
come to do so, of course; but he should re-
fleet, that while he cannot possibly change
for the better, it will be very hard to make
an equal exchange, and tie chances are ten
to one that it would prove much worse
one.
We point with pride to the financial con
dition of St. Paul

we were to have nine mails per week. 1t is
said in excuse, however, that Judge Cookery,

crosswise again. The Judges negligence to
send on our exchanges, as per order, disables
