PHILADELPHIA, Aug. &C. A. Van
bokenlen, of New York, ex-United States
consul general at Port-au- Prince, arrived
in this city to-day as a passenger on the
American steamer Haytien Republic,
from Portal Prince. He tells a remark
able story Of outrageous treatment at the
hands of the Haytien government While
acting as consul general Mr.. Naubokelen
married a Haytien woman, and at the end
Of his term of Office, took up the business
of dealing in paper money of the native
government. At this be made considerable
money and then desired to invest part of
his gains in real estate, but this was
forbidden by the law Of Hayti, which
denies that right to any but a native of
Hayti. He evaded the law, however, and
purchased a piece of property in Port-au-
Prince, which transaction, reaching
the ear OF President Solomon,
chief magistrate of the republic, he
caused Vanbokenlen's arrest and had him
locked up in a wretched dungeon in the
government prison at Port au Prince.
Here his only companions were negroes of
the most dehased type, many Of them
being murderers and desperadoes, and
very often the prison, which is a small and
wretched structure, built on low, swampy
ground, was crowded with nearly 800
prisoners, Mr.. Vanbokelen being the only
white man among them. His dungeon
was a narrow stone cell which measured
eight feet by four, and the walls were
constantly dripping with water. There
the unfortunate %ex-consul was forced TO
live from March, 1884, until the
9th of June, 1885, the place being
infested with rats and loathsome
vermin. His health which was robust
when he was first imprisoned, Is now en-
tirely broken down, and he has become a
victim to both consumption and chronic
catarrh, while his face is pale and bag
gard and gives every evidence of long
suffering. Mr.. Vanbokelen says. No
attention was paid by President Solomon
to letters from Secretary Frelinghuyscn
and he was not released until Secretary
Bayard wrote to the Haytien president
demanding his instant release, stating at
the same time that if he was not released
a United States man Of war would be
dispatched to Port au Prince with in

A Constable after sullivan.

CINCINNATI, Aug. PA constable
was sent to Chester park 'at moor with q
warrant for the arrest of John l.. Sullivan,
on a charge of being about to engage in a
contention commonly called prize fight.
At 2 O'Clock the constable had not found
Sullivan.
When the constable found Sullivan and
notified him to appear before Judge Hus-
ton, the pugilist started Immediately to
the city to comply with the order. He
did not, however, appear in person be-
fore the court. but his attorney appeared
and gave a bond Of 1000 in his behalf
to not engage in a prize fight. The other
statute against glove contests has an ex-
ception in the case of public %gymnasiums
or athletic clubs, and it is claimed that
this contest will be under the auspices of
the Chester Park Athletic club, recently
formed. The general feeling tonight is
that there will be no further effort to in
%terfere.
The efforts of the Law and Order
League to stop the contest between Sulli-
van and McCaffery. tomorrow, appear
now to be limited to the arresting of par
ties and requiring them to give bond.
This would not necessarily stop the con-
test and there is some doubt MS to whether
their arrest will be attempted.

Washington Notes.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-The president
has decided to rcappoint Mr.. Julius Stahel
as consul general to Shanghai, China.
Mr.. Stahel is now in Washington on leave
of absence. He has served in the consul
lar service in China for ten or twelve
years.
But three of the army officers affected
by Secretary Endicott's order sending men
on long detached duty back to their regi-
ments have complied with the secretary's
instructions. These are Capt. VIM. W.
Wherry, of Gen. Schofield's staff, who
has been on detached service eighteen
years and three months; Lieut.. C. b.
Schoield, of Gen. Schofeld's staff, on
detached duty six years and nine months,
and Capt. j. S. Wharton, of Gen. Han
cocks staff, on detached service seventeen
years. Several of the officers who have
not complied with the order have tele-
graphed here asking that exceptions be
made in their cases, but their friends in
Washington have replied hat no excep-
tons will be made. 1t is reported that
some of the officers who have been on
long detached service will resign from the
army before they will join their regi-
ments.
1t is stated in the treasury department
that A. Wilson Norris, late pension agent
at Philadelphia, is causing the accounting
officers of that department no little trouble
because of his failure to forward his ac-
counts for the month of June last. Mr..
Norris was removed July 7, and according
to the treasurers report had, up to June
!, failed to account for advances amount
ing to Sl76,l17. Judge Williams, third
auditor of the treasury, has several times
requested him to forward his accounts for
examination, but so far Mr.. Norris has
not taken the slightest notice of his letter.
In making his last formal request, the
third auditor called Norris attention to
sections 1922 and 5,49l of the revised
statutes, which require that all officers
who hold public funds for disbursement
shall render a monthly account within ten
days after the expiration Of each success
i've month, and provide that officers who
fail to comply with this requirement shall
be deemed guilty Of embezzlement and
subject to fine and Imprisonment. This
letter, it is said, has produced no better
effect than its predecessors, and the de-
partmont officials are in somewhat of
quandary as to how 10 proceed. There
are no charges against the official integ-
rity of Mr.. Norris.
