A Gillian Column Attacked by Indians
-Queer Actions of an OniciaI.
PANAMA, Nov. 15.--Pacifcation of Peru is
progressing slowly. A Chilian column on its
way to Agueshuco was attacked by four thous-
and Indians, the latter almost unarmed, and
the Chilians slaughtered 700 of their ignorant
aud drunken opponents.
The American whaling schooner Caleb Ea-
ton, Captain Clifford, has left the Bay for San
Francisco. The American whaling bark Cape
Horn Pigeon is discharging 760 barrels of
whale and 75 barrels of sperm for shipment
across the Isthmus to the United States.
The American bark AZor, Harnes, Boston
for Aspin wall with cargo of dressed lumber
was wrecked few weeks ago on the island OF
New Providence. The captain made agree
ment with some men to save what could be got
out of her and pick up as much lumber as pos
sible.
Subsequently Mr.. Bailey, an American, and
two other merchants purchased the salvage
lumber which was regularly sold at public auc-
ton. After the sale had been effected and
money paid the Correjdor interfered, and find
ing Captain Haines refused to divide with him
the money received, declared the sale "can-
ceIled" and determined to refer the matter to
San Andres for decision Of the court
OF the department or the authorities
at Boquota. The captain and principal puf-
chases determined to come to Colon to repre-
sent the matter to the United States consul.
Then the Correjidor prohibited the purchasers
leaving the island and put them under $500
each and requested the captain to give security
for 81 POO that be would not go to Jamaica by
the vessel about to leave. Capt. Haines took
a small boat and went to Corn Island, where
ne hoped to fnd vessel which would convey
him to Jamaica, where he could take ship for
Boston. Prior to this all vessels had been nc
titled not to receive the captain, under PEN
atty of fine n imprisonment. The matter has
been brought to the knowledge of President
Cervers, the agent of the general government
here, and Mr.. Rice, United States Cansul at
Aspinwall, moved actively in the matter, and
have forwarded full particulars to the Depart
ment of State at Washington.

Another Trotting Wonder,

lrIOm Jno LOUISVILLE courier Journal
Yesterday it was current as a rumor that
r. S. Veech, of Indian Hill, had sold his
wonderful filly Feme Sole to the wealthy
horse-fancying Wisconsin manufacturer.
Feme Sole is phenomenal animal, and she
occupies the thoughts of those ambitious to
own the leaders on the trotting turf in the
years near by. If it proves to be the fact
that Mr.. Case has secured Feme Sole, then
against this transaction must be put at least
$4,000. Feme Sole has never taken part in
race, though she trotted in public at the
Lexington fair in 1 II and fraction. She
is brown, and was foaled in 1882. so that
she is but two years old. For one of her age
the muscular development is astonishing.
She has the large, intelligent head of her
sire, Princeps, who already has the distinc-
ton of having got Trinket-2:14 the fast
est so far of the Mambrino Chief family of
trotters. On the dams side the breeding of
Feme Sole is remarkable. 1t is intensely
Hambletonian. Duroc Maid, the dam Of
Feme Sole, was by Messenger Duroc, son of
Rysdyk's Hambletonian; and Lady Winfield
Feme Sole's second dam, was by Edward
Everett, also son of Rysky's Hambleto-

A Terrible Experience on Lake Michi-
gan-Reperts of Other Wrecks.


CHICAGO, Nov. 15.-The schooner Driver,
with the survivors OF the wrecked steam barge
Akeley on board, was sighted far out in the
lake yesterday, making signals of distress 1t
was not known what vessel it was at the
time. A tug was sent to her relief, but owing
to the heavy seas it was impossible to get near
enough to give any assistance, and the tug
returned, bringing note of the fact that the
vessel had the survivors on board, which was
the first news of the Akeley disaster.
Finally, late in the day the tug managed to
get line to the schooner, and she was towed
into the outer harbor. The vessel is complete
ly covered with ice, and the crew and the
Akeley survivors suffered much hardship on
the trip across the lake. The story of the
wreck of the Akeley, learned from one of the
survivors, is as follows: The Akeley left Chi
cago for Buffalo on Sunday morning, with 5000
bushels of wheat. At 10 o'clock in the morn
ing, when off Racine. fell in with the tug
Protection in Distress and learned of the fate
of the schooner Arab. A line was thrown to
the tug and the pair kept company through
the great gale of Sunday and Monday. The
cargo of the Akeley shifted Monday afternoon,
and she was at the mercy of the waves. Her
smokestack and part of her upper works went
overheard and she began to leak.
The Protection, to relieve her, cut loose, and
they parted company. The crew set to work
and they righted the cargo, but the smoke
stack being gone, the engine would not work
and she lay in the trough of the sea, and final
ly filled and sank. The last seen of hercap-
tain he was floating on bucket rack, but
there is little doubt that he has been lost The
schooner Driver hove in sight in time to pick
up the survivors, who were greatly exhausted.
The Akeley was built in 1881 in Grand Haven,
Mich, and was 1000 tons burden. The life
saving corps is patrolling the beach at Hoi-
land in search of bodies.
A number Of wrecks are reported between
Holland and Saugatuck, but the reports are
not confirmed.

LOSS OF THE PRoTEUS.
Continuation of the Inquiry y-Testimouy
of Signal Service OHieers.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-In the Proteus
court of inquiry to-day, Gen. Hazen's exsm-
nation was resumed. Referring to the publ
cation of reports apparently upon authority
from the Signal Service, about supplemental
instructions to Lieut.. Darlington to land stores
at Littleton Island, Gen. Hazsn said he was
absent in Washington Territory when the pub
llcations were made, and knew nothing OF
them. Since his return he had made inquiries
and it seemed some such instruction had been
given out by Lieut.. CaZiarac Gen. Hazen said
he did not think Darlington was in fault in
directing stores to be. loaded by the sergeant
who had loaded stores before, and knew all
about them. He thought it better that Gar
lington shoHld remain with his mon. The two
men selected by Darlington himself, had de-
serted, and there was danger that all would
go.
There would have been no difficulty about it
but for the failure % the sergeant to do duty.
The sergeant " as married just before he start
ed, and witness believed that was what infu-
enced him to come back, and that it caused all
the difficulty about the stores.
Gen. Pae (sotto voce)-There's woman in
the case Usughter)
Gen. Hazen said if the navy had taken the
work from the beginning it would have been
better, but having been elaborated and carried
on as far as it was by the army, he would say
the army should haveit to complete.
Witness thought it would have been better
had instructions to the commanders OF boths
vessels been prepared after consultation. No
discussion lad ever taken place in Garlington's
presence with regard to changing Lieut.. Gree
ley's instructions about leaving stores at Lit
tleton Island on the way North, unless there
was some expression on the subject az the
time tho memorandum had been brought TO
him. Gen. Hazen had not said anything in
that conversation to lead Darlington to think
IL his duty TO adopt memorandum No. A. as
part of his instructions.
After recess, Lieut.. Caziarac, in charge OF
the division correspondence and records of the
Signal office, stated the history of Enclosure
No A." He prepared the memorandum for
the Secretary of the Navy, of the plan of OPP
erations for the Proteus, the memorandum
embodying his own views to the estab fishing
of a depot on Littleton Island. The memoran-
dun was submitted to Capt. Powell, Gen. Ha-
zen and Lieut. Darlington, and he understood
that all approved it. Witness pever knew un-
til after the disaster, that the memorandum
did not form q part of the orders OF CARING
ton. Witness gave the memorandum to the
press under that belief. An error in the rec
ords of the office had been discovered since the
disaster. The Office records showed the MEM
orandum had been given Lieut. Darlington,
endorsed Enclosure No. 4" while by an error
of the clerk copy of the charter of the party
had been endorsed Enclosure H." and handed
Darlington as such. Witness did not think, in
view of this error, that the memorandum
could be considered part of the orders to Gar
lington.

MORMON BARBARISM.


League of Cleveland, o.
CLEVELAND, Nov. 15-The address of the
National League for the suppression of Poly
gamy adopted last night says: Now is the time
for action. The honor of the nation is in dam
ger. The total disregard of the law of the
land is bringing US into disgrace ameng the
peoples. Ever since Joe Smith established the
Mormon Church, the fundamental doctrines
of which. are polygamy and pHofigacy, there
been disgrace to as and to the civilized world,
The world cries out against such progress, and
in the name of humanity, home and common
decency, demands a halt in the rapid strides of
lschery and law breaking.
AS vet Congress has taken bat little interest
in the matter, for some reason best known to
the members thereof; and as consequence it
remains for the people at large to throttle he
evil in the best manner possible, and rid the
country OF curse which their representatives
in Congress have have failed to recognize.
An immense lobby of Mormon elders has
signifed its intention to be at Washington this
winter for the purpose of defeating bills intro
duced for the regulation of polygsmy. A great
deal of money will be spent, and, if there is
not popular uprising against the obnoxious
teachings and practices OF the MormoDs, Con-
gress will again, no doubt, refuse to recognize
the evil and nothing will be done to eradicate
it. In view of this, the National League for
the Suppression of Polygamy of Cleveland ur-
gently requests that petitions be circulated in
every city. town and school district in the Uni
ted States asking Congress to submit to the
Legislatures of the various States an amend
ment to the Constitution prohibiting polyga-
my. This would be an important step. If ac-
complished it will prevent the institution from
being recognized by any of the present States
or in Territories that may become States here
after.

rious Trouble in Limerick, and Many
Arrests.
LONDON, Nov. 15.-The; news from Ireland
is sensational and somewhat alarming. In
County Fermanagh,s both the National Leag-
ers and the Orangemen had announced mass
meetings to be held en- the 18th inst, and the
prospect for collision was so obvious that the
castle authorities issued a proclamation forbid
ding both assemblages. The Orangemen sig
nihed their acquiescence, and gave mp their
proposed meeting, but the leaders have to-day
plscarded the district with notices declaring
their intention of holding their meeting de-
spite The official prohibition. This challenge
to the government has been met by the send
ing of some thousands of soldiers and consta-
bles into that section Of the country, and to-
days Developments are awaited with anxiety.
The state of affairs in Limerick, where
bitter parliamentary contest is being waged
between the Tories and Home Rulers, is no
better. The entire city is patroed by police
and soldiers. To-day the League placarded
the district with statements that Spaight, the
Tory candidate, was calumnator of the city
and secret insulter of the Catholic religion"
These placards have already led to several
riots, and over two hundred arrests have been
made.
DUBLIN, Nov. 15.-Orapgemen in obedience
to proclamation of the government abstained
from assembling at Garristown to-day.
Nationslists assembled to the number of 1000.
