OWEN BROWN.

Owen Brown, a son of old John
Brown of Harper's Ferry fame, died al
the home of his sister, Mrs. Thompson,
in Pasadena, California, on the Sth OF
this month; aged Ga. He was buried
on the mountain near the cabin, where
with his brother Jason he has lived al
most hermit's life for the past two
years. The Pasadena Star says:
Owen Brown was one of the sons OF
John Brown, and one of the partici-
pants with his father in the attack on
Harper's Ferry in October, 1859. He
had seen many stirring scenes and been
engaged in many thrilling adventures
before he accompanied his father upon
the crusade into Virginia. He had
seen many of the battles upon the dark
and bloody grounds of Kansas during
the troubles which distracted the ter
ritory in 1856 and thereafter, and had
stood at his fathers right hand during
all the bitter contest which the latter
waged against the prO-slavery marau-
man slavery in the great northwest.

called sometimes eccentricity and some
times fanaticism. and which was the
characteristic of John Brown of Ossa.
watomie. Like his father, he was per-
fectly inflexible in carrying out what
he had determined upon, and his cour-
age was absolutely dauntless. He was
renowned among bis acquaintance for
his passion for exact justice, and was
hopored by them for his sterling up
rightness and integrity.
The American people need no mon

family. Call him what you please

their struggles in behalf of the slave
will live in history as long as the
American republic shall endure, and
the spirit of freedom shall hallow and
al'ctify the soil in which repose the
ashes of that little band of martyrs,
whose O. My fault was that they were a
little in 40 vance of the age in which
they lived.

HALSTEADS FATE.
He is FINALLY REJECTED.
Five Republican Senators Cast Ballots Against
the Editor
THE VOTE STOOD 20 TO 18.
Very Crisp Comments From the Commercial
Gazette"

WASHINGTON, March 30.-The Execu-
tive session of the Senate lasted two hours
this afternoon, being devoted almost exclu-
sively for the third time, TO the case Of
Muir Halstesd, nominated to be Minister
to Germany. Senators Sherman, Hawley
nd Blsir spoke in favor of ais cOufirms-
tion the two last named being listened to
with especially close attention.
At the close of their remarks vote was
taken on the motion to reconsider the vote
by which the nomination WAS rejected on
Thursday.
The motion was lost, by vote Of % to
19, Messrs. Eyarts, IDgalls, Plumb and
Teller voting with the Democrats in the
negative, and M@ssrs. Blackburn and Call
with the Republicans in the sfi rmative.
The Republicans named explained their
votes on roll call, saying that they had no
personal feeling in the matter, no antagO-
nism against Mr.. Halstesd, but thought it
right to defend the Senate against such at
tacks as had b.en made upon Its character
by Halls ead's paper.
A number Of Senators were paired,
among them Mr. CullOm against and Mr..
Fsrwell in favor of reconsideration.

PHILADELPHIA, March 30 Alexander

peri0tendent Fox, OF the Mint, Mr
Squires, it will b. remembered, is the old
California miner who presented himaelf at
the Mint few months ago and produced
an old yellow piece o. paper, which he
said was q recep: for gold dust deposited
IN the Mint in 1855, amounting 20 S.
2Ol.7S. The Mint officials upon referring
70 the books found a deposit OF such
nature had boel made at that time.
Fox questioned the old miner and
became convinced that there was
some truth in his astOry, REFER a the matter
70 the authorities at Washington and sent
twenty-five or thirty pages Of deposition
papers to the Capital. de also sent to va
riOus parties, both in California and Wheel
ing Squiree' home, and they all sent back
word that he was thoroughly honest man,
and sent such other testimony that proved
beyond doubt that Sqaires was the man
he repreeentei himself to be. The author
titles at Washington we're also convinced of
the truthfulness Of his claim and ordered
the amount 70 be drawn
Fl. J. Wade, 3 cooper, living at 81 Z ne
street, Island. was interviewed on the sub
jet shortly after the Identification. SAd
he:
"Ysa; knew Alexander Squires. W.

Nr. Wade smiled, and pointing to an
other gentleman who sat at the opposite
side of the hearth, ard who did not look to
be the seyenty-three years old he l. said TO
be By at least a score, remarked:

Further inquiry developed t,s fact that
when Mr.. Squiles learned that lie would

cover the money be came night t. Wheel

The claimant of the gold and his old

Wade made affidavit to the statements
quoted above and Others that leave NJ pcs

WHAT Is SAID IN FRISCO.


a. Disaster Unprecedented In the History
of the Navy.
SsN FRANCISCO. March 3O-The news
from Samoa Oft wrecking Of the Ameri-
can and German meu-of-war, in the hartos
o.. Apis. caused intense excitement on the
streets. Every bulletin board was sur
rounded by an anxious throug, eager for
particulars. Some surprise was expressed
that 30 much damage should have been
done in the hsrbor. brit officials cay it
mus. be remembered that the barhor Of
Apia ia merely an open rosdstead, sur
rounded BY coral reefs. From tie ac-
counts received by vessels arriving durirg
tne past two weeks, il would seem that the
wind and rain storms in the South Paclnc
Ocean had b5en exceptionally severe, and
had been accompanied by electrical dis
turbances.
Commodore John Irwin said concerning
the disaster, that il was wholly uDprece-
Ce1ted in the history Of the Navy. Not
through the war psriOd'' he said, "Eyen
along the Atlantic coast, was there any
disaster comparable to this. "
''There is hardly any anchorage in Apis
harbor," said Capt. Leary, of the U. S. S.
Adams, which recently returned from Sa-
moa. "and it is a very difficult matter to
keep a vessel of the shore in ordinary
weather. F,om reports received it would
appear the Commanders were warned Of
the approaching storm four days
prior 10 its arrival end it is
strange they would remain anchored
i'm the harbor surrounded by reef snd
wholly unprotected when by going ont
and around TO the sea side of the Island, a
distance Of about forty miles, they would
be safe from any gale OF hurricane,
The loss Of paymasier and clerk, with
Captain Schoonmaker, OF the Nandalia, Is
considered due to observance Of the Naval
rule that the captain should always be the
last to leave his ship ard the plymastsr
and clerk should not leave until Just be
