THE HORNET.


WASHINGTON, ID. G., Nov. Pit is known
that the statement that the Spanish war vessels
mad left Havana to seize the steamer Hornet are
untrue. They have gone on another GRAND in
different quarter The Spanish authorities
have already been advised that serious trouble
may result, should the Hornet be seized while
under the American hag. Her true character is
a question for civil investigation, and can not be
determined by the Spanish authorities with the
aid of Il naval force. 1t appears that the reason
OF the Spanish consul at Port au Prince for srjk-
ing the flag was, that he was loudly derlded by
the crew OF the Hornet, 200 colored sailors.
ms fact has been communicated to our govern
ment.
GENEVA Tribunal.
The object of the recent visit of Mr. Eyarts TO
Washington was in connection with business TO
be brought before the tribunal of arbitration at
Geneva. No information has yet been received
from Benjamin Il. Curtis regarding his accept
tance of the appointment us associate consul.
FEW CLAIMS.
A few claims only have yet been received for
presentation TO the United States and British
commission which rcassembles here on Tuesday.
Mr.. Howard, British agent, Is instructed by his
government not to present the claims of persons
heretofore British subjects who have become
naturallzed citizens of the United States.
THE CUBAN CLAIMS.
The Spanish commission will proceed to con
slider claims in December. Before the commits
for Spoiations in Cuba were presented to the
state department. Not over ten so far have
been presented to the commission in accordance
with prescribed forms.
PENSIONS.
Under the law granting pensions to survivors
and widows OF the war of 1872, $40 applications
have been rejected and S798 pensions granted.
SPEAKER BLAINE AND THE COMMITTEES.
In letter to a friend in this city, Speaker
Blaine says he will not reach here until alter
the Both instant, and win nor be able to an
nounce the standing committees of the house
before the second week in December. He also
says there is no authority whatever for news
paper statements in reference to proposed
changes in the Craftsmanship of several commit
tees.
GEN. BUTLER AND TIE HORTON.
Gen. Butler proposes 10 bring the Horton
matter before congress unless Secretary Bout
well issues the papers required by her owners.
The secretary says he has been unable to discov-
er anything in examining the matter to cause
him to change his mind.
FINANCIAL.
Fourteen millions of dollars of the new loan,
which belongs to the syndicate, instead of being
sent to Europe, is held in the treasury here, the
syndicate prelering to sell it in this country. 1t
