A Marshal Holds q Shin.

NEW YORK, Jan. THE British
steamship Mosser arrived in this
city from Asiatic ports ON Dec. IA with
a miscellaneous cargo. The steamship
was dOcked at Pier 10, North river, and
when the cargo was unl0aded it was
discovered that about 125, 900 pounds of
tea had, by contamination with other
freight, become worthless. Messrs.
Samuel w. Gillespie d Co., Fred p. Ep-
pens & Co. and Charles G. Boardman
filed libels against the steamship for the
value of the tea, aggregating $500.
United States Deputy Marshal Holmes
seized the vessel when the libels were
filed in the United States district court.
To-day he discovered that the captain
of the MOSSer had coaled and was pre-
pairing to sail. The marshal hurried to
the Federal building and was furnished
with a dozen deputies to prevent the de-
parture of the Mosser. When he board
ed the vessel the captain said that he
would sail out of the jurisdiction of the
court rather than satisfy the libels. The
marshal was then warned to get ashore,
but instead he produced the deputies
and declared himself ready to hold the
ship. He was still on board with his
force at noon.

A Descendant OF King Phillip,
the Indian Warrior, Dies at the
Advanced Age of 115 Years.
NORWICH, Conn.,, Jan. 7.-Eunice
Cottrell, who was known throughout
North Stonington as Aunt Eunice,"
died at the age of 1l5 on the Pequot In
dian reservation, in the wild country
near Lantern Hill, on Monday. "Aunt
Eunice" was great grandchild of King
Philip, and at the time of her death was
the oldest descendant of the PequOt In
dians. Mrs. Cottrell was tall, spare and
straight, and was alert up to the time of
her death. Rev. Elder Chandler, of the
First Baptist church of Mystic, per-
formed the funeral ceremony, after
which the little train of mOurners fol-
lowed the casket to the forest-embOw-
cred Indian cemetery of the PequOt res
ervatiOn, where the body was laid
among the graves of the SachemS of the
tribe. Mrs. COttrelrs maiden name was
SheutOpe, or Sheutopee, and her father
was slain in the massacre of the Pequot
Indians by Capt. John Mason and his
white settlers. who came over from Say
brook and surrounded and set fire to the
Indian wigwams, shooting down the red
men as they rushed lorth. A monument
is now in course of erection in MaSon'S
memory at PequOt Hill.

woNDRoUs PERUVIAN WORK.

The Whistling jugs Made by an
Ancient acknowledgements of
the Incas.
The Silvadors or musical jugs found
among the burial places of Peru are
most ingenious specimens of handiwork.
A silviO in the William S. Vaux coIlec-
tion at Philadelphia consists of two
vases, whose bodies are joined one to
the other with hole or opening be-
tween them. The neck of one of these
vases is closed, with the exception of a
small opening in which clay pipe is
inserted leading to the body of
whistle. When liquid is poured into
the Open-necked vase the air is COM
pressed into the other, and in escaping
through the narrow opening is forced
into the whistle, the vibrations prOduc-
ing sounds. Many of these sounds rep
resent the notes of birds, and
in the Clay collection of Phila-
delphla, Pa, initiates the notes of
thrush tribe peculiar to Peru. The
closed neck of this doubtful vase is
modelled into representation of a
birds head, which is thrush-like in
character. Another water vase in the
same collection, representing a llama,
initiates the disgusting habit which this
nlmal possesses of ejecting its saliva
when enraged. The kissing sound
which accompanies this action is ad-
mirably initiated. A black tube of
earthenware, Ornamented with a gro
tesque head in low relief, to which short
arms are attached pressing three
tubed syrinx to its lips (Clay collection,
deserves es pecial mention, as it sug-
re a of
from single tube to more complicated
forms.
Peruvian woven tissues, often dyed
in brilliant hues, are unsurpassed by
the textile productions of any other an
cient American people. Their jewelry
OF gold and silver is remarkable. Stat
uetteS in the precious metals are even
more wOndertul; they represent
monk eyS, birds with their feathers,
fish with scales. ETC., modelled in relief
or intaglio. Human figures were also
cast in precious metals, the artists even
attempting groups. Beads were made
of gold. silver, glass and earthenware.
Wood was used to furnish objects in
daily use, and an example may be seen
the beautifully Ornamented combs
that are sometimes found placed beside
the dead in the huacas.
:. 1t is yet to be shown that the ancient
Peruvians possessed system of coin
age, or of recording their ideas by
system of writing either hierogIyphic or
phonetic. 1t is supposed that some sys-
tenn of communicating ideas and re-
cording events existed by means of
lupOs OF strings of varying length, on
which were knOtted a certain number
of threads. The Inca was thus enabled
to transmit his orders by messengers
over all the roads starting from the
capital at CuZcO. Relays of runners
were stationed all along the imperial
highways at distances rarely exceeding
five miles, and In this way orders were
forwarded to all points in the kingdom
with great rapidity.

found her suffering from the poison, but

KANSAS CITY, Jan. fudge Krekel,
in the United States circuit court to-
day, rendered decision of importance.
Hudson had shipped 37S steers from
Bennington, Kan, with orders to have
them i'm the Kansas City stock yards the
next day in time for the markets. The
Union Pacific railroad guaranteed to do
this, but failed to comply with the con-
tract, and the cattle were sold the next
day; when the market was dull, at a
loss of S766. Hudson sued and recov-
cred the money. Judge Krekel's decis-
ion to-day was in the form of a refusal
to grant a motion for new trial.

granger, seems to be gaining strength,
and so does Redmond, of Powisheik.
The following that Rerryhill had has no
doubt gone to them. Reilly and Wilbur
are certainly holding their own and the
former has probably gained slightly
during the day, the latter has eleven
votes that he can count on. Roach
seems to be making no progress. Unless
a combination is made before tomorrow
noon the contest in the caucus promises
to be long and interesting one.

Special to the Globe
DES MONIES. To-, Jan. 7.-Without
any particular reason for it, the sup
porterS of Senator Wilson seem to have
become alarmed. and have imported
Jacob Rich, of Dubuque, to manage his
campaign. Mr.. Rich is familiar figure
in iowa politics, having had charge of
Senator AlliSOn'S political fortunes for
many years. He has been chairman of
the Republican state committee in some
of its most desperately contested cam
paignS, and is always looked TO for ad-
vice by the party III nagerS when they
feel that they are in tight place. Mr..
Rich has been in feeble health for some
time, and his journey here at this sea-
son of the year, at the request of Senator
Wilson, is scarcely justified by the Situ-
alton. There is nothing to indicate
anything but the certainty of Wilson's
triumph in the caucus. Judge Reed
reached the city this afternoon, and his
name was again coupled with the SEN
atorShip, but he denied all evil inten-
tiOnS in that direction, and insisted that
he was simply on legal business per-
tanning to the opening of the supreme
court on Monday. The name of
Senator Sweeney. of Mitchell county,
was afterwards proposed and quite gen
orally discussed by the anti-Wilson
forces. Sweeney is the author of the
bill passed by the last legislature COM
pellipg foreign corporations doing busi-
ness in Iowa TO incorporate under the
state laws. and which was afterwards
declared unconstitutional by the United
States supreme court. He passes as an
anti-monOpoliSt, and this is the kind of
man the opponents of Senator Wilson
are looking for. No formal conference
has been held over his name, however,
and the probability that he will be
united upon as a candidate is extremely
prOblematical. The plan of the Wilson
forces now is to force the calling of the
senatorial caucus early while they have
the nomination safe in hand. This
proposition is opposed by the Hepburn
following. who believe that something
advantageous to them may come of de-
lay. Their desire is voiced by the Reg
lister. which this morning calls for de-
lay and points out the danger which
might arise over too hasty action. The
caucus will probably be called for
Wednesday or Thursday of next week.
