THE RODGERS AT HERALD ISLAND.

Under date of November 16, 1881, two reports
were received at the Navy Department about the
cruise of the steamer Rodgers. They were signed
by Lieutenant r. NJ. Berry, the commander
The first report was dated OFF Herald Island Sep
tember II, 1881" 1t stated that the steamer
sailed from Lawrence Bay August 10, and the next
morning entered the Arctic Ocean in company with
the Russian corvette Strelock, but was separated
from it by westerly WIND.
On August 21 the steamer touched at Serdze
Kamarr. 1t was there learned that the
United States revenue cutter Corwin had
visited that point Wraugen Island and
Herald Island were sighted August "a. boat was
sent on shore to search for idngs of the Jeanette
and missing whalers. The island was thoroughly
explored and the vessel then started for Cape
hawaii which was sighted the next day.
Three search parties We're organized to explore
the island Master II. S. Warng. with
whaleboat and crew, was ordered to explore
the coast passing to the northward Of the island,
and was accompanied by byAssstant-SurgeOnJ }. d. Cos
tello He found a cairn left there by Captain
c. L. Hooper, of the United States Revenue
Marine. On August 80 the boat was fastened in the
ice, and was then abandoned. Ensign II.
l. Hunt was ordered to explore the
coast passing southwark of the island in a
whaleboat and was accompanied by Passed Assist
ant Engineer A. V. Zant. The third party was
commanded by Lieutenant Berry, who was accom-
panied by Surgeon NJ. ID. Jones and four men. The
party went twenty miles in northwest
direction and Lieutenant Berry assembled a
mountain $500 feet high. "The whole coast
line" Lieutenant Berry said in his report, "wlth
the exception of few miles of outlying sand spts
has been examined, and l believe it impossible
that any of the missing parties ever
landed here. We sailed from Rodgers
Harbor, Wrangell Island, yesterday morning. l
shall finish the examination of Herald Island
and then proceed to the northward as far as posi-
Die In search of some other land where the jean
nette or missing whalers may have touched"
The second report was dated September 27, 1881.

FOR THE RELIEF OF IMMIGRANTS.


WASHINGTON, April 1S.-For several years there
have been loud complaints OF the discomfort and i'll
treatment of steerage passengers In the last Con-
eress Representative Deuster of Wisconsin, who is
a German-Amercan citizen, offered bill to amend
the laws OF this subject The laws were enacted at
a time when immigrants to the United States made
the voyage in sailing vessels but with the intro
ducton of steam and the transfer of immigrant
traffic to steamships, they became absolutely and
practically imperative. Mr. Deuster, although
himself Democrat was unable to get the ear of a
Democratic House of Representatives. The Demo-
Gratis in that body are always ready enough to mako
violent speeches buncombe resolutions about
foreigners and foreign-born citizens but in the last
Congress they found neither the time nor DISPOSE
ton, when they had the power, to remedy an evil
of which immigrants and their friends and relatives,
who have become citizens of the United States,
complained so loudly. Therefore nothing was done.
At the beginning of tbs session Mr.. Deuster again
offered his bill, in Republican House of Repre-
sentatives. 1t was referred TO the Committee on
Commerce and favOrably reported, and to-day the
House passed it by unanimous consent, without de-
bate and without division

AN AMUSING SITUATION IN DIPLOMACY.
lBY TELEGRAPH TO THE rRIRuyE.I


WASHINGTON, April 1S.-The Presidents message
grcss of American Republics, is regarded as q
singular dOcum ent in several respects. The Presi-
dent issued the invitation TO the Peace Congress
absolutely and Internationally, not making it an
semblage dependent at all any future contingency
upon the action of any other department of the
Government. His power to do this having been
questioned in the early part Of this session. and Mr.
Springer having introduced resolution inquring
into his right to issue the invitation without con-
suling the Legislative Department of the Govern
men the President takes occasion in his message to
assert and vindicate his right to con-
the Congress without consulting with
any other branch of the Government. Then
having issued the invitation four months ago and
and having now distinctly vindicated his right to
issue it, he practically abandons it unless Congress
shall give Its assent
A curious phrase in the message attracts atten-
ton, wherein the President says: 1t has been
suggested that our treaty rights the Isthmus and
elsewhere might be clouded by the action of the
Peace Congress-" How or in what manner this
could happen, or from whom the suggestion comes
is not stated The President Is said to be really
hostile TO the Peace Congress. as one of the chief
features of Mr. Blanes foreign policy, and to have
adopted this method OF getting rid of it and,
whatever course Congress may take, the result will
be awkward and embarrassing. If it fails to advise
the assembling of the Congress the President will
be compelled by the language of his message to
withdraw the invitations, after Internationally
issuing them. If Congress advises the assembling
of the Peace Congress the President must issue a
second invitation with the assurance that
this one is in earnest for naturally the invited
nations will inqu lire: if the first one Is not good.
what reliance can be placed on the second. There
seem to he elements here of rather amusing stu
alton in diplomacy

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-Tbe Mississippi Valley
Senators have made it apparent by the introduction
of amendments to the bill for the Improvement OF
the navigation of the Mississippi that they care less
about improving the navigation OF the river thah
for reclaming and protecting the farm lands
Senator Frye in brief speech, and Senator Harrison
in a longer one, exposed and attacked TINS policy
very effectively to-day. Mr.. Frye said he con-
sidered the sentiment which had resulted from the
overflow q very dangerous He did not think
the Government was bound to spend a cent on the
Mississippi and he called attention to tine fact that
the committee which reported the bill never agreed
to leave the expenditure of the money to be appro-
priated to the judgment of the Mississippi River
Commission.
Mr. Harrison. after commenting upon the
Importance to the whole country of keep
ing the great National waterway open
and available for commerce, and concedIng
that it was the duty of the Government to do this
attacked the levee system which finds so much ia
vor with the Arkansas and Louisiana Senator'S
The fact that he was for two years an active
member of the Mississippi River Com mission gave
great weight TO his opinions. The levee plan had
nothing to do with the great question OF channel
improvement, and the General Government had no
more right to expend money in retaining and I'M
proving private property of people in the Mississippi
Valley than it had to make appropriations for fer
tilizing barren lands rrigating desert lands Mr.
Harrison favors building embankments at points
where bars form; so that by narrowing the chan
mel, the velocity of the stream may be maintained
OF increased and the course be kept clear.
This was considered as Senator Harrison's maiden
