RETURNED FROM HAYTI.
The Boston Arrives at New York
with Yellow Fever board.

NEW DIRK, NOVemb Der Z4.-Ihe United
States steamer Boston, last reported a,
Port-au-Prince, Hayti, where she was
sent when the Haytian Government
seized the American steamer Haytian
Republic, reached New York this morn.
ing and anchored in quarantine. It is re.
ported that the Boston returned from
Hayti on account of yellow fever break
ing out among the crew.
THE SHIPS PATIENTS.
Commander Ramsey of the steamer
Boston reports that he left Port au- Prince
November 10th. Surgeon Simons, Frank
Thomas, a seaman, and Charles Mitchell,
an ordinary seaman, are sick on board.
John j. Kelly and E. j. Trapp, appren.
tices, died November Goth. November 21st
John Uselman, marine, died, followed
the next day by the death OF John Rebol
another marine. Yellow fever is sup
posed to be the cause. The steamer car
ries 356 men. The officers of the Boston
decline to make any statement regarding
the steamer Haytian Republic, recently
seized by the Haytian authorities. They
say the matter will have to be settled by
authorities at Washington.
AN OFFICERS STATEMENT.
In regard to the Haytian Republic
matter, from a chat with one of the
officers Of the steamer Boston, it seems
that the steamer Haytian Republic was
captured while coming out of the har-
Dor of st. Marc, for trying to raise the
blockade, by the Haytian man Of war
Besaline. Captain Ramsay, OF the Bos-
ton, had several interviews with the
President of Hayti, who refused
to release the steamer, and the
matter was referred to the Secretary OF
State at Washington for final action.
sCANT NEWS AT THE STATE DEPARTMENT.
WASHINGTON, November 24.-The Navy
Department to-day received telegram
from Captain Ramsay, commanding the
United States ship Boston, which ar
rived at quarantine in New York harbor
this morning, stating that the vessel had
yellow fever on board. The Boston had
been at Port-au-P Prince, Hayti, on diplo-
matte mission, but left on the 18th, when
fever appeared. Four men died of the
disease, and Surgeon w. j. Simons and
two men are now sick. There have
been no new cases on board since the
10Th inst. No information of late date
from Hayti regarding the disposition
of the seized American vessel, Haytian
Republic, has been received at the De-
partment of State, and it is presumed
that the Boston bears dispatches from
the United States Consul.

OVER THE RAPIDS.

NIAGARA FALLS, n. ", July A.
Robert w. Flack, ofSyracuse, died this
afternoon while trying to make a trip
through the terrible Whirlpool Rapids
in life-bOat of his own invention.
Flack had arranged to have a race
through the rapids with Charles A.
Percy, who claims that he went through
in a somewhat similar boat last sum-
mer. The trip to-day was preparatory
to the race. Flack left his wife and
children at home at Syracuse, but his
brother was on hand to see the test.
Flack's last cigar was smoked after din
ner at the New York Central Hotel,
and he appeared to be pretty nervous,
but he kept stiff upper lip, and when
he got into the boat Phantom, at the
Maid of the Mist landing, he seemed to
be in pretty good spirits, and remarked
as Joe Percy buckled him into the
death-trap: "If / should die in this
boat it may prevent somebody else
from meeting death in the whirlpool" !"
The Phantom was cut adrift at three
o'clock and Flack started his propeller
wheel, propelled by two cranks inside
the boat. Two minutes later he struck
the first swell of the rapids. The wave
turned him and his boat upside down.
The current runs over twenty miles an
hour, but Flack's boat was tossed about
and turned over so much that over
three minutes were required to get to
the Whirlpool. Three or four times the
boat was apparently completely sub
merged upside down. Finally, the boat
shot into the maelstrom, and there it
stayed for an hour, floating bottom up
ward, until it neared the Canada shore
close enough for swimmers to venture
out to get the craft and its dead oceu-
pant.
The voyage to death occupied about
four minutes. The Phantom kept
near the center of the stream, where
Flack was continually buried by the
breakers. He was alive when near the
spot where Captain Webb ran his head
against a rock, but Flack died by
strangulation. When near the whirl-
pool, after his boat had several times
been capsized, he responded with a
wave of the hand to cheers from the
crowd on the top of the banks. Flack
was thirty-nine years old, and was a
native of Bristol, England. He came
here when twenty-three, and lived fol
twelve years in Toronto. For four years
his home has been in Syrrcuse, where
he hiss wife and five children.

be Republican Candidate.

We are learning all about Hon. Ben
jauoln Harrison, the Republican cAndi
date for the Presidency Of the UniteC
States. OF course the people knew al
, along that he sprang from hard cider
and the same old coon, but the biogra'
pher and the detail descTiber are now
getting in their newspaper work Id
elegant style, and we are having an
interesting time generally with the
HarrisOns. Some Of the descrip ptiOns
are worthy of everlasting preservation
From an illustrated article of brilliancy
We learn that -- 80
"Gen. Barfison's In5ianapolis home is on Della
ware street which is paved with cedar blocks and
lined with trees"
This is so nice. Unjust be splendid
Cedar makes agood pavement, and how
fortunate that the street is lined with
trees. Now, II in place of the trees
weeds and thistles were there it would
be dusty and noisy, and if the peanut
and circus lemonade vendors lined the
street it would be more noisy. Trees
are somewhat primitive, but shady
Old trees are ancient, typical of hard
cider and log cabins. 1t is fortunate
that Mr.. Harrison, dear soul, lives on a
street lined with trees. f-r ..
''The house is brick structure, OF substantial de
sign, with ample roof" 7
Now this is wonderfully important,
aDd--it is so fortunate that the party
nominated man whose residence has
enough roof. He might catch cold il
there were noroOf over the room where
he snoOZes the nightsaway. Then, too,
roofs are better than mosquito bars and
will keep bugs and rain and burglars
out. Just think what dear Mrs. Har-
rison would do if her parlor nice things
should be exposed to the elements, and
if the rain should descend upon the fry
ing pan of kitchen without ample
roof. 'Twould be provoking TO say the
least. The candidate Is to be congratu-
lated upon havinga house with plenty
of roof, indeed he Is.
"In modest building IN the rear /, stabbed the
one horse of the family, . big sorrel."
This is so sweet. Not that we are to
infer that it is a one horse family, but
that one horse is big enough to haul
the HarrlsOns. And big sorrel! 1t
was very thoughtful to give us the
color. Sorrel tops will be the prevail
ing summer style and will no longer
vulgarly be associated with white horses.
And it is well that the barn is modest
and well behaved.

Henry George in discussing the
question Of projection says: HE
ali b not protection that has made
wages higher here than in Europe :
Ifproteotiop could make wages high,
why has 1t not made wages higher in
Germany and Italy and Spain and
Mexico? Why did II not make wages
high in England, when it was in fhll
force there9 Wages we're higherin the
United States than In Europe before
had any protection; and II they have,
on the whole, remained higher, il Is in
spite of protection. Our higher wages
is because of our cheaper land-because
labor could more readily obtain access
to the natural opportunities oflabor.
The secret ofour prosperity, our rapid
growth, our better conditions of labor,
is simply that we have had the temper
ate zone of a vast and virgin continent
to overrun, and that 1t has taken long
while for monopoly to fence 1t in. As
it Is gradually fenced in, as the trib-
ute that labor must pay to monopoly
for the use of land becomes higher and
higher, so must our social conditions,
tariff or no tariff, approximate to the
social conditions Of Europe. - -
ITO give labor full freedom; to make
wages what they ought to be, the full
earnings of labor; to secure work for
all, and leisure for all, and abundance
for all; to enable all to enjoy the ad-
vantages and blessings of an advancing
civilization, we must break down all
monopolies, and destroy all special
privileges. .. ... .r... .......,
1.-The rejection of protection and the
abolition of the tariff will not of itself
accomplish this, but it will be long
step toward tia step that must neces-
sarily be taken if labor is to be emanci-
pated and industrial slal cry abolished.
Until the workingmen of the United
States get over the degrading supersti-
ton of protection, they mus be divid-
ed and helpless. But when they once
realize the true dignity of labor, once
see that the good of all can only be
gained by securing the equal rights of
each, then they can unite, and then
they will be irresistible.
"And this is the question that you
will be asked this year to answer with
your votes: Are you for restriction, or
are you for freedom? Are you in favor
of taxing the whole people for the
oenent or rev capitalists, In tne nope
that they will give to their workmen
some of the crumbs, or are you against
all special previleges and in favor of
equal rights to all.
ITO the man who thinks the matter
over there can be no question as to
what answer best accOrds with the in
terests of workingmen. 1t is possible
for few to become rich by taxing the
many. !But it is not possible for the
many to become rich by taxing them
selves; still less by taxing themselves
oput the proceeds in the pockets of a
few.
Labor cannot be hurt by freedom.-
The only thing that can be hurt by
freedom is monopoly, and monopoly
means the robbery of labor. What la
Dor needs is freedom, not protection;
justice, not charity; equal rights for all,
not special privileges for some."

The high tariff laws at present ex-
isting were enacted to meet the ext
gencies of a great and expensive war.
While the soldiers engaged in the
struggle We're subsisted by the Gov
ernment; when all sorts of labor was
in demand at good wages, and when
the products of the farm commanded
extraordinary prices, the war tariff was
not oppressive. Now however, after O
quarter of 3 century of funbroken peace,
when the prices of labor and of farm
products have sunk to the peace stan
dard, and when the revenues produced
by the war tarifare exceeding by many
millions of dollars annually the expen.
ses of the Government, and absorbing
and withdrawing from circulation the
proceeds of trade and labor, it seems to
us that to oppose and stigmatize as "free
traden the just and reasonable reduc'
tion of said tariff proposed by the Dem

culture, of business and of labor, but al

tBThe lofty aspirations of Republican
politics are well illustrated by Ingalls, de-
mand for "some fellow like Phelps" who can
get contributions from Wall street and the
manufacturers. He is quite of the opinion
of Deacon Foster that to "fry the fat out OF
the manufacturer" is the first duty and only
chance of the Republican managers. The
indications are growing stronger every day
that q very considerable number of the
Eastern manufacturers are decidedly averse
to enduring the fat-frying process for the
sake of a hopeless effort to perpetuate a
policy which is not really beneficial to their
interests.-N. Y. Star.
