HIPPOLYTE
NOW RULES THE HAYTIEA ROOCT.
The Other COlOred Statesman Makes a HaSty
Departure.
YANKEE SEANEN SHOW UP WE'LL.
Admiral Gherardi Has Matters in His
Hands.

WASHINGTON, August 24.-Acting Sec
retary Walker to-day received the follow
ing cablegram from Rear Admiral Cher
ardi, commanding the Naval force on the
North Atlantic Station, dalsd at st. Nicho-
las Mole, to-day.
"Legitime accepted the terms offered
and embarked Thursday afternoon on
board the French corvette. 1t is not known
where he will go. Hippolyte's forces occu-
pied the town on Friday morning. We
fear riot. have notified the Diplomatic
Corps, that 1 will do all can TO prevent
riot. French and English Captains will
act under my orders. 1t is very impOr-
tant that the new Minister should be sent
immediately"
THE WORST IS OVER.
The United States Galena has been or
dered to sail from New York tomorrow
morning for Hayti. She will take at least
a week on the passage, providing sne does
not run into the hurricane, which is sup
posed to be coming up the gulf stream II
ihe opposite direction. Acting Secretary
Walker says that it appears from Admiral
Gherardi's telegram that the worst OF the
trouble is over now. Still it will be pru.
dent and necessary perhaps to keep q
United States man-of-war in Haytien
waters for some time to come to provide
against the contingencies of riot or law
lessness which may endsnger American in-
teIests.
The department of State has not yet COM
municated with Minister Douglass ON the
subject of his immediate departure for
Hoytien as suggested by Admiral Cher
ardi.
LEGITIAiE'S HARD STRUGGLE.
The latest news from Port Au Prince
previous to to.day's dispatches, was dated
August II. and stated that the peace mis-
sion of the English Consul and Spanish
Consul General to Hippolyte had failed,
his terms being that ne was 10 be escorted
10 the gates of the city by the diplomatic
body, where an unconditional surrender
should be made.
Legitime refused the terms at the insti-
CATION Oh the French Minister, who said
they were disgraceful. Then followed the
fight between the two gunboats Jacmel
and the Dessalines, in which nobody was
hurt and no special damage done. The
heaviest fighting was on land, at La Coup,
were the total LOGS WAS 100 killed and 25O
wounded. The town was burned By Leg
itime's general, the people having all fled
/ to the mountains.
HippOlyte's line on August II reached
entirely around the capital and the gen.
eral impression among the foreign pOpula-
tion was that he would enter from the
south. The French Minister, Ces Maison,
was expected to leave Port au Prince on
the last French mail steamer, but he dis
appointed the merchants, who were earn
estly hoping for peace, and who were con-
vinced that he prevented the acceptance
of the peace terms offered by HippOlyte on
August 7.

trict in which Harlan county is situated,
came here to-day 10 requsst Governor
Buckner to send troops 20 arrest Wilson
Howard, leader of the band of outlaws
that killed four citizens last Tuesday.
Judge Boyd said to-day:
81 think the troops are necessary TO
capture the outlaws, and their presence is
essential at the criminal court, in order
that the law might be enforced"
'If Wilson Howard and Bill Jennings
could be taken the trouble would ED; but
they are related to about one.fOurth of the
Harlan county inhabitants and have a
large number of active supporters. l think
the best thing to ne done IN case of capt

They are both wanted IN that State for
two or three murders. They murdered a
deaf muts in cold blood, end think killed

The Proposed Flint Glass Combine Cant
Agree to Combine.
PTTrsBURG, August 24.-MentiOn was
made a few days ago that the flint glass
manufacturers were talking over the prop
ositiOn, which has been before them for
two years mast, of consolidating the various
fint factories under one great company for
the purpose OF economy and to preserve the
trade from utter ruin. There has been no
cessation of this talk among the parties in
terested, but they have found an obstacle
to the plan difficult to surmount.
The obstacle they have found is that
when each plant comes to be appraised,
the superior buildings and the high price
of real estate would give the city manu-
facturers a greater share Of the stock than
the country manufacturers who have as
great producing capacity as some of the
more valuable ones, and yet the appraise-
ment would give them very much lees
stock in the consolidated company.
