Riot on an Island in the Caribbean Sea Owned
by United States Company.
WASHINGTON, Sept. ia cable dispatch
has been received at the Department of
State from Consul Allen, at Kingston. Ja-
maica, saying that riot occurred at Va
vassa, an island in the Caribbean sea, in
which number of Americans were killed.
The Consul says that, at his request, Brit
ish war ship had left Jamaica for the scene
Immediately upon receipt of the news of
the trouble. The dispatch contained no
further information.
1t is learned at the Navy Department that
the United States ship Galena is now on her
way to Navassa, and will probably arrive
there tomorrow. She was at ST. Nicholas
Mole, Hayti, when news of the riot was re-
ceived at Washington, and was at once Or
dered to Navassa. This island is under no
particular jurisdiction, but is regarded as
nnder the protection of the United States.
1t is said to be owned by an American COM
pany. of which Gen. Ben Butler is men,
Der: 1t is about $50 miles from Kingston,
and is known as guanO island.
A Baltimore dispatch says: THE Navassa
Guano Company, of New York, has owned
the island since 1854. The receivers of the
company in Baltimore say that they did
hear by an incoming ship of some little
trouble, but only yesterday had cablegram
by way of London in which no mention is
made of trouble. The company has en-
ployed on the island $50 men sent from Bal
timore-colored laborers and white officers
and the only harm the report can do is to
unnecessarily alarm the families of these
men. General Butler has no connection
with the company.

Postmaster Paups Queer Actions.

CHICAGO. Sept. 19-Postoffice Inspector
George Fleming arrived from Milwaukee

conduct of Postmaster Paul. in the case
against j. r. Nuzune, the letter-carrer ar
rested for appropriatiDg mail. Said Flem-
ing: THAT carrier was stationed at a SUBJ
station, but went on a spree. during which
he failed TO report for work, hut stopped at
a cheap lodging house near the main post
Office. For one week he went through the
downtown districts collecting mail No
one reported him and the sub-statiOn super
intendent of delivery did not deem the
mans disappearance from his work worthy
of report. When Nuzune was arrested he
had $50 pieces of mail matter on his person.
These Postmaster Paul ordered delivered,
so that when | reached Milwaukee the
United States had very little evidence
against the carrier. ! expostulated with
Mr.. Paul for doing as he did. Why said
he, the irst point of law is to show intent.
This carrier had no intention of robbing the
nails The United States attorney. how
ever, proved otherwise. and Nuzune was

American railway magnate, returned to

BILE health and spirits when a correspond
ent called on him at the Hotel Bristol Re-
ferring to the rumors of his adopted daugh-
ter's engagement to Prince Hatzfeldt, he
said: THE New York newspapers are hav-
ing an immense amount of trouble trying
to settle whether my daughter is or is not
engaged to Prince Hatzfeldt. One might
imagine that it was something unusual for
an American girl to get married. 1t is easy
to see that the journalistic season is dull,
but of all absurd things have seen printed
the most absurd is the sensational account
of the manner in which / am supposed to
have broken off this match. The story is
elaborated with regard to detail which
does great credit to the writer's imagination.
Once for all i should like to state that /
have not broken off any match between
my daughter and Prince Hatzfeldt for
the good and sufficient reason that no
such match ever existed. The young gem
tentions, nor is there much reason
to doubt the character of his intentions,
but it takes two people to make bargain,
sometimes three, and neither my daughter
nor myself have made up our minds what to
think of this TeutOn. You may therefore
deny absolutely all the silly stories have
referred to-. No match has been made, and
consequently none has been broken off, /
have not refused to paw the Princes debts,
because / know nothing about his debts,
and have no reason to do 50. Whether
there may one of these days be a closer re-
lationship between the Prince, my daugh-
ter. and myself, will depend on various
things, but for the present, neither he, nor
she. nor /. nor any one else, except, of
course, sensational scribblers for certain
New York dailies. can say anything

Mr.. Huntington went on to talk on vari-
Gus other subjects. He contrasted Ameri.

English Liberals Barred from Holding q
Meeting in Ireland-A Divided Town.
LONDON. Sept. 19.-The little town of
Dungapnon County Tyrone, Ireland, is to-
night in frenzy of excitement, and every
man, woman and child in the place is
ranged on one side or the other of heated
political controversy, in which, too. nearly
the whole surrounding country seems dis
posed to take hand. Nearly week ago
number of English Liberals, who are
travelling through Ireland with the view
of discussing the home-rule question on the
native soil. engaged themselves to hold in
Dungannon public meeting in the inter
ests of home rule, the date of which was
fixed for tonight. For nearly a whole
week the fact that such meeting was to
be held was well known to everybody in
County Tyrone, and not single word of
objection came from the police authorities.
Tonight. however, Market square. where
the meeting was to have been held, is filled
with armed police, and placards are posted
pr0claiming the meeting.
This action of the authorities excited the
most intense indignation among those In
sympathy with the objects of the meeting,
and deputatlon of the Englishmen who
were chiefly instrumental In organizing it
called upon the magistrate this evening to
P.oeeSo asainS1 'niS atlack upon Tue riSntS

meeting had been proclaimed because it
seemed certain that if it were permitted
bloodshed would result, as the Orangemen
proposed to organize a counter-meeting g
only q stones throw distant in case the
Home-rulers assembled.
Dungannon tonight is divided into two
hostile camps. the Catholics and the Or
angemen taking every opportunity to hurl
defiance at one another. Up to this time
no more serious consequences are reported
than few broken heads, the results of iso-
lated disturbances but as feeling runs high
and the police are nearly all concentrated
on the scene of the contemplated meeting
news from Dungannon is awaited with con-
siderable anxiety.

NEW YORK, Sept. ia reporter to-day
asked ex-President Cleveland for his
opinion ON the action of several recent
Democratic State conventions in approving
the tariff-reform plank of the last national
Democratic convention. Mr.. Cleveland ex-
pressed himself as much pleased with these
evidences that the attitude OF the Demo-
cratic party on this question was still
courageous, consistent and aggressive. He
thought that the careful examination Of
the tariff, question by the people was bear
pointed to the triumph of the Democratic
party's view of the subject. He added:
IF among those counted as Democrats there
are found timid souls not well grounded in
the faith, who long for the fesh-pots Of
vacillating shifts and evasions. the answer
to their fears should be party honesty is
party expediency.'"
