BULLETS FALL LIKE HAIL.

British Seal Hunters Attacked Dy Nas
 tives off Copper Island.
 SAN FRANCISCO, July 15.-Advices received by steamer Belgic give an account of mur- derous attack by natives upon the crew of the British otter hunting schooner Memo of Copper Island on the coast of Kamschatka The Memo sailed from Yoko- hama last April on the usual hunting voyage and May 29, while off Copper Island, Cap- tain Snow had three boats lowered to pull around in the vicinity of the vessel to look for otter. The boats were manned by Jap- anese, Captain Snow being the only white man. While the boats were approaching large rock fire was suddenly opened by con- cealed party upon the captains boat, which was then short distance from the rocks. One bullet struck Captain Snow on the hand and he at once ordered the men to pull away. Bullets then began to fall like hail and sever al men rolled off the sides. When the boats reached the vessel it was found that three men were mortally wounded and died a few hours later. Three others re- ceived severe wounds and their small boats were full of bullet holes. Inquiry was held before the British consul at Kanagaw and testimony showed that the attack was unpro~ yoked Captain Snow believed the assailants numbered dozen at least An investigation brought out the fact that it was the belief that the rifles had been furnished the natives by the Alaska Commercial company to guard the coast against the depredations of seal hunters, but it is stated that the natives who made the attack could not have nsed this as an excuse as it is well known that there are no seals in these waters till a month later.

mEsMERIZED HIS BRIDE.

A Young Mans Power Leads Him Into
 a Sad Scrape.
 BUFFALO, July 15.-Edward Shaw tells a romantic story about the marriage of Louis B. Kline, an acquaintance, who recently left Barnun's show at St. Louis and then trav- eled with the Howard Magnet combination. Said Mr. Shaw: sProf. Kline is 8 Pennsyl- vania boy, who has lived in New York and distinguished himself by mesmerie feats. Three weeks ago he was in Sault Ste. Marie, 8 little city in Michigan, with some other professional people, and was invited to att tend parlor entertainment at which he was asked to exhibit his mesmeric powers. One of the subjects, Miss Mamie Leroy, could not be released from the spell, and some doctors who were summoned could not account for her condition. The spell was finally partly broken, but the girl refused to leave Kline, and when he finally escaped, she became in- sensible Kline was sent for and his pres- ence gave her relief. Her father demanded that he break the spell or marry the girl. After trying every means of relief justice was called in and tied the knot. Mamie is 8 handsome blonde, but her husband is greatly grieved, because he was engaged to marry New York girl whom he dearly loved" The curiously mated couple were guests of MT. Shaw this week.

 BLACK ROCK, Conn.,, July 14.-With splendid sailing breeze from the southeast, after five hours of calms and light, bafiing winds, the leaders in the cruising fleet of the Atlantic Yacht club swept gracefully around | the old lighthouse and into the harbor be- tween 5 o'clock and sunset There were eleven of them in all, and the sloop Enter prise was leading, with her spinnaker set to starboard. John Paaque's Anaconda fol- lowed close in her wake. The former at noon was five miles in the lead, but her big breeze came. There was hardly breath of wind when the feet left Whitestone at $40 g. m. They drifted around Throgg's Neck, and from there to City Island with hardly steerage way on them. Right off the south east point of David's Island at 1145 the En- the northwest, with which they ran miles ahead of the others. The Anaconda, the third boat, and the others got the breeze at about 12:30. It lasted only an hour, then dropped out entirely, and left the fleet to drift eastward with the ebb tide.
 Of Stamford light the first steady breeze came from the southeast. which brought the yachts into harbor. There were lying in the harbor when the fleet arrived the schooners Wivern and Azalea, the sloeps Arab, Nim- rod, Olga, Empress and Roamer, and the steam yacht Ladoga.

A CRAZY SPECULATOR.
He Made the Widest Of Trades and i
 NOW Having Maniac.

He Made the Wildcat Of Trades and is
 NOW a Having Maniac.
 CHICAGO, July 15.-It is said that Charles F. Hess, president of the Hess Elevator com- pany, ewing to unfortunate speculations on the board of trade, is now raving maniac, and is only prevented from committing vie- lent acts by being confined in his residence. Several weeks ago his father. Ernst Hess, who is wealthy grain dealer and the owner of two elevators, started for Europe and trans- ferred the entire management of his affairs to his sons, the younger of whom, Frank W. Hess, is secretary of the company. Besides a bank account of $75, 900 to the credit of the young men there was large credit in mar gins remaining in the bank. After the cashier went away Charles developed 8 re- markable faculty as ''plunger," and stirred up the corn market to violent degree. His actions created considerable comment, but it was attributed to his youth and consequent desire to show himself. He would wild ly bet 100 to 1 that corn would be 55 before it was 45, and then he would offer to buy in million lots and in almost the same breath offer to sell. As the credit of the house was very strong his calls were made for margins, though the young operator had spread and straddled until his affairs were seriously complicated and he was involved to the extent of 5000, 900 bushels or more. The open trades he made 1t is asserted would have exhausted everything to the credit of the company had a call been made for margins. The real condition of affairs did not become known until yesterday, however, even to his friends, and then his brother Frank and a broker took the complicated affairs in hand and succeeded in drawing out with only $6, . 900 net loss. A cablegram has started the father homeward. It is unknown whether speculation caused the unfortunate young fellows insanity or whether suddenly devel- oped insanity led to the speculation.

 Claiming That His Irish Decree Was
 Nos Hastily Made and she People of
 Ireland Must obey.
 DUBLIN, July 15.-A papal enoyclicsl let- ter dated June 24 was read in all the Catho- lie churches in the diocese of Dublin. In it the Pope says he has heard with regret that excited meetings have been held at which inconsiderate and dangerous opinions re- garding the recent papal decree have been uttered, even the decree itself being unspar- ed He has seen with pain forced interpre- tations put on the decree and statements made that it was prepared without sufi- eient inquiry having been made. The Pope, strongly denying the assumption, states that the decree was based upon the most com- plete information, that previous to it's issu- ance he held interviews with Irish bishops and sent tried and trusted delegate to Ire- land to inquire into and report on the true condition of affairs. His holiness reiterates his affection for the Irish people and says he has always urged them to keep within the bounds of justice and right. He refers to 8 communication to Cardinal McCabe, adding: GAS the people were led on with gradually increasing vehemence in the pursuit of their desires, and as there were not wanting those who daily famed the flame, the decree became a necessity" The bishops, he says, must remove all misconception and leave no room for doubt as to the force of the decree. The whole system of the plan of campaign and boycotting is condemned.
 4 letter from Archbishop Walsh of Dub- lin which accompanied the Pope's letter was also read. The archbishop aays: ''The agi- tation referred to is now ended under the resolutions recently adopted by the bishops. The hope has arisen within the past few days that before the close of the present session Parliament will provide for the more urgent needs of the hour. The people may await in peace fuller legislation at the next sss sion."
 The encyclical letter causes intense dissat- isfaction. At Bray people left the church during the reading of the letter.
