Weare reliably informed that

obvious meaning of all this is

such circulars, but we have more
confidence in his common>sense
than to believe that he would follow
such advice. Leory Courier.
We believe the negroes of this
section are too sensible to paw any

don't apprehend any trouble from

This idea Of colinization is a
movement started by the negroes
themselves,and if they, or any por-
ton OF them, want to 50 into a
country OF their own, where they
can govern themselves in their own
way with perfect freedom, why not

evidenced by this coIonizingscheme.

howl about race war, race color and

We cannot believe that Senator

Such a law would simply give the

thirty days arm every vicious ne,

SENSIBLE TALK TO SAILORS.
The Judge of the Ninth Judicial District on
the Sailors Union of San Francisco.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 27-The bureau of
navigation of the treasury department has
sent to the United States shipping commits
sionerS, with instructions to post in their
offices, copies of decision rendered by the
United States circuit court for the district
of Oregon in the cas- II of the Ship of Oaks.
Measures have also been taken to bring the
decision to the attention of United States
consular officers In this case two mem
bers of the crew of the libelled vessel
sought to recover wages. The court re-
viewed the testimony TO the effect that the
men had been guilty of premeditated and
persistent Sinking and sighting of duty;
that they had refused TO be discharged at a
foreign port by the United States consul
with the payment of wages to the date of
their discharge, and an extra months pay.
The court denied their application for pay
for the entire voyage, and in concluding the
opinion said:
81 have taken more pains and time with
this case than the intrinsic difficulty of it
demands. My reason for so doing IS that /
am strongly impressed with the idea that
the whole trouble grows out of the methods
and purposes of the Seamen's union of San
Francisco. 1t appears to be organized for
the purpose of controlling the conduct and
employment of seamen ION this coast to the
end that ships shall be navigated in the in
terest and at the pleasure of the forecastle
without any reference to the rights or in
terests of the owners. Acting on this an
archical idea, these men sued for libel
and undertook to administer to the master
the prescribed medicine for his refusal to
submit to their dictates, by lettering and
trit1ing over their work in discharging the
cargo at the expense of the ship. But the
law will not tolerate such contract. TIE
contracts of the ibelants bound them to be
diligent and obedient in the discharge of
their duties. They wilfully and persist
emily violated this contract, and were prop
one months more wages than they were
entitled to. Decree OF court will be that
the libel be dismissed and claimant receive
his costs.

Chicago tTimes,, Troubles.

CHICAGO, Aug. 27.-H. ]. Huiskamp, one
of the proprietors of the Times, procured
warrants from Justice Lyon this afternoon
for the arrest of James West and his secre-
tary Charles E. Graham. He charges
them with illegally issuing 1000
shares of stock of the Times company.
Shortly afterwards, when the board
of directors of the Times was
in session, Mr.. West and W.
A. Patton, a former director, appeared
and presented a writ of injunction issued
by Judge Jameson, restraining the board
from acting. At the same time Mr. Ora
ham. Vests private secretary, appeared
and constable putting in an appearance,
West and Graham were taken into Gus
tody.
Joseph R. Dunlop, editor of the Times and
a member of the board of directors, said to
a reporter this evening that the Times
would remain in charge Of the present
management. He stated that Mr.. West
had been trying to injure the standing OF
the Times and for that reason the directors
had determined TO do something radical.
There are, he said, q dozen charges of
criminal misrepresentation of title funds on
which they can prosecute West, but that
of an over issue of stock will be the only
one prosecuted. Mr.. Dunlop added that
the directors have proof that Vests debts
are almost quarter of amilion. -..
Justice Lyon held West and Graham to
await the action of the grand jury, fixing
the bail for each at $4,000 H Hart, of
H Hart & Co., and George H. Taylor signed
the bonds and the prisoners were released.

Mrs. Hamiltnn,s Career.

ATLANTIC CRY, Aug. 27.-The woman
said to be Hamilton's wife lived at Passaic.
n. j., one year and left for parts unknown
in the winter of 1887. She was then under
bail to appear before the grand jury for at
lacking her coachman with a knife and
pistol. Joshua H. Mann figured as her
husband here and she had other admirers.
Mrs. Mann owned a beautiful cottage on
Brook avenue, and when she sold out be-
fore leaving, Robert Ray Hamilton ap-
peared as her counsel and drew the deed.
She got Sl5, 900 for her property and used
part of it to pay her bondsmen the amount
of her bail. Norton, the magistrate who
held her to bail, said to-day:
That woman visited my Office the day
after her arrest under the influence of
liquor and would have shot me but for the
influence of Joshua Mann. She invaded
the sanctum of the Passaic Nelos in search
of the editor the same day. She wanted
his blood for publishing the details of her
assault on the coachman.n
1t is supposed that Hamilton hearing of
these escapades induced her to sell out
and move away. Mann is described as of
slight build, light blue eyes and blonde
complexion, and what might have once
been a handsome face is now disfgured by
broken nose.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 27-The bonds pr
chased by the treasury to-day reached the
unusually large total of 81, 495, 900. They
were all per cent. registered bonds and
were bought at 1.2s. 1t is learned at the
treasury that soon after Secretary Win
dom's departure for New England the
bondholders in financial centres foreseeinga
stringency in the money market which
might oblige them to part with their bonds,
made determined effort to increase the
price. In pursuance of this plan numerous
appeals were made to the treasury to in
crease the limit the department had fixed
upon as the price it would pay for bonds,
and Secretary Window was followed in his
retirement by kilograms of like purport.
These very nearly had the desired effect, as
the department was seriously considering
the advisability of increasing the figures,
when offerings dropped off sharply few
days ago. 1t was finally decided to main
tain the existing rate for a few days longer
and the result was made manifest in the
break up on the part of the holders, which
led to the purchase of over five million dol
lars in bonds today.
