THE NAVASSO RIOTS.
Eight of the Muineers Arrested and Taken
10 Baltimore by the Cruiser Galena-
Part of Them Charged With
HTrrA

BALTIMORE, October 25-The United
States man-of-war Galens, Rear Admiral
Gherardi commanding, arrived in the har-
Dor from Navasso Islands at O'Clock this
afternoon and anchored off Fort McHenry.
She had on board nine Navasso negroes,
eight of whom were engaged in the murder
Gus riots in the Island of Navasso recently,
six of them being the instigators and perpe-
traitors Of the murders of the white bosses.
The names of these latter six are: Albert
Jones, the chief of the lot, whose home is in
Philadelphia; Amos Lee. of Georgetown,
d. c.; Thomas Welch, Washington; George
Singleton Keyes, of Washington; Henry
Jones, of Greensboro, w. Va, and James P.
Phillips, of Baltimore.
Robert Downs and William James, both
of Baltimore, are also in the party, but they
are not deeply involved in the trouble. On
the voyage from Navasso, Admiral Gherardi
kept these two separated from the six ring
leaders. They will be used as witnesses
The ninth man is George Ward, of Will
mington, Del, but he is in no way con-
nected. He was the cook on the island and
was taken aboard the Galena to look after
the prisoners When word was received
that the Galena was in port, District Attor-
ney Thomas G. Hayes, Chief United States
Deputy Marshal and several other officers
boarded tug and went to the warship. and
after an exchange OF the proper official
papers, the prisoners were put aboard the
tug and taken up to the Baltimore Jail.
Lee, Keyes, Jones and Weleh are accused
of murder; Albert Jones and Phillips with
mutinY and intent to kill. The Galena
sailed from Navasso October 10. When she
arrived at Navasso the British war vessel
Forward was already there, and her timely
coming probably saved the lives of the re-
naming six white men. The Forwards
officers took all the arms and ammunition
away from the negroes. The story told by
the officers of the Galena regarding the riot
is much the same as that already published.
One OF them said, however, that the white
bosses practiced great brutality against the
negroes

DAVITT'S BOLD STAND.
He Charges Thai the Tories Knew That
the PiGoft Letters We're ForEeries-
Some Statements for Which He
Will Furnish Prouf

LONDON, October 25.-Mr. Michael
Davitt resumed his address before the Par
nell Commission to-day. He said the land
lord system in Irelznd should be abolished
and the land be vested in the State. Eight
tenths of the money which came from
America for the support of the Irish cause,
he declared, came from Irish work
ingmen. Mr. Davitt denied that
there was any alliance between the League
and the revolutionary organization in Ire
land. He said that Mr.. Houston, Secretary
of the Loyal and Patriotic Union, and his
accomplices knew that the letters alleged to
have been written by Mr.. Parnell, which
were printed in the London Times, were
forgeries before Pigott went into the witness
box, and that it had come to his (Davitt's)
knowledge that Pigott had confessed that
fact prior to his testifying for the Times.
Chief Justice Hanneh interrupted the
speaker at this point, saying that the COM
mission could not accept such statement
without evidence being produced to support
it. Mr.. Dayitt did not press the point, but
stated that the allegation would be again
made and proved later on. He said further
that the alleged secret circular produced by
the Times to show that the League was
revolutionary organization, were forgeries.
Mr.. Davitt proceeded to point out that
Mr.. Parnell and not he formed the Land
League in America. LeCarpn, he declared,
had failed to prove the assertion that the
Clan-na-Gael managed Mr.. Parnell's tour
in America. No money collected in
America had ever been intended to assist
armed rebellion in Ireland.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.i
W1LKEsBARRE, October 25.-Judge
Dreher, of Carbon county, was trying an
important case in the Mauch Chunk Court
House to-day, when one of the Jurors, Leo
pold Becker, arose and said he would like
to talk to the Judge privately. The Judge
said the Juror could address him rom his
seat. Mr.. Becker said he had every
reason to believe that the case
being tried would be ended before
Wednesday evening, but it had not been.
He was therefore compelled to ask the
Court to excuse him.
"Pray, what for?" asked the Judge. "You
are not sick, or is there death in your
family?"
mo, worse than that" was the reply. 81
am to be married this evening must
travel 40 miles, and unless leave the court
now cannot reach my bride in time, and
you know how queer the women folks are.
They will take no excuse"
The Judge didn't see how he could ex-
cuse the Juror under the circumstances, but
Becker made such a strong appeal that the
attorneys on both sides of the case put
their heads together, and finally
got their clients to consent to the
decision of the remaining II jurors. Becker
then left the court a happy man. In the
evening he was joined in wedlock to Miss
Mary Russ, daughter of Hotel Keeper Russ,
of Nesquehoning.

FIGHTING AT SAMOA.
The State Department Has No Ohicial
Information Upon the Subject-It is
Possible Thar No International
IuteresrE Are Tuvolyed

WASHINGTON, October 25.-The cable
dispatch from Sidney of reported engage
ment between the forces of Malietoa and
Tamasese was shown to State Department
official. He said that on the face of it the
report was startling, but that the import
ance of the report would be modified by the
relative importance Of foreign interests in
Savaii. 1t might be that there was nothing
at all in the conflict that would call for
foreign consideration.
1t might be merely local riot, without
international Significance of any kind. In
any event, the report, if true, demonstrated
that Malietoa and Tamasese were not dwell
ing together in such harmonious relations
and ambitions as had been stated in the re-
cent account Of Mataafa's abdication and
the subsequent election of Malietoa. The
department had no information on the sub
ject whatever .-s-t-
An examination Of the correspondence
and reports upon the Samoan matter, with
accompanying maps, showed that there
were no American interests at all on the
island, and that those OF England and Ger
many were inconsiderabIe. compared to
those on Tortuila, upon which Apia is sit
uated.

appearance of the wounds whether they
were inflicted before or after death.
The advantage gained by the defense from
the testimony Of the County Physician was
greatly weakened by DIR. Charles f. Per-
kins, who welded the knife over the body.
This witness proved Of inestimable value to
the State, and his recital was as interesting
IN its CHASTITY details as that of Dentist
Lewis. DR.. Perkins declared without hesi-
tatlon that. to his mind, DR.. Cronin had
died OF conclusion of the brain produced by
blows on the head from blunt instrument.
A sharp weapon without stroke could not
produce conclusion. One proof that the
doctor had died from conclusion was de-
stroyed by disintegration. as microscopical
examination of the brain was sometimes
necessary to determine the existence of con-
cussion. In this case such an examination
was impossible owing to the liquid condi-
uon of the brain.
APRooF OF Conclusion.
But there was another proof left to the
surgeon and that was to be found in the con-
dition Of the heart. Eminent authorities
had declared that in cases of concussion the
right side of the heart was invariably filed
with blood while the left side was drained
OF the fluid. This was the case Of DR..
Cronin, aud the discovery of the fact con-
WINGED the witness that the man had died
from conclusion. DR.. Perkins also declared
that the incision on the jaw had severed the
facial artery, and that one OF the wounds on
the back of the head had cut the occipital
artery. The hemorrhage from these wounds
must have been great, and would NO doubt
have produced death had not the injury the
brain sustained proved fatal. There might
have been confusion and compression of the
brain as we'll as conclusion, but this couldn't
be determined at the autopsy owing to the
ravages of decomposition.
Judge Wing was severely nettled at the
scientific and damaging recital OF the wit
nesses, and in petulant way asked DR..
Perkins why he didn't sink his knife until
he found the severed arteries. The witness
replied that being satisfied from the loca-
tion of the incisions that the facial and
occipital arteries were cut, and knowing
that blood vessels retract when severed he
deemed it unnecessary to make a further
investigation. The witness was then hur-
riedly dismissed by the defense. The case
will be resumed at 10 o. clock tomorrow.

A TOO, TOO BASHFUL BRIDE.
She Was willing 10 Wed, but Dared Not
Face the Clergyman.

The mention of Prof Lowering, by call
ing up the older Harvard professors, brings
to mind tale which was told me at Ports
mouth this summer, of which the venerable
DIR. Peabody, once citizen of that charm
ing old place. was the hero, says writer in
the Providence Journal:
On one occasion he was sent for to marry
a couple, and arriving at the hotel where
they were staying, he was met by the bride
groom, who sat for some time talking with
him, but made no reference to the intended
wedding. The doctor in time became first
curious and then impatient. as there seemed
no prospect for his being allowed to get
home at any reasonable hour; and, at
length, in desperation, he inquired if the
pair were not ready to be Joined IN matri-
mony according to the plan on which he had
been summoned.
were ready, but as no bride had made her
appearance, the clergyman waited still
season. At last his patience became ex-
hausted, and he suggested that if be was to do
any marrying that evening he desired to do
it at once in order that he might reach home
before midnight, and that the groom had
better call in his bride,
Thereupon, it appeared that the bride was
in the next room waiting as patiently as he
was for the ceremony, but that she wished
it performed with the contracting parties
where they were, as she was too bashful to
face stranger upon SO nervous an occasion.
The groom was at first unable to see why
the marriage could not take place in this
fashion, and requested the doctor to proceed
with the service; but DR.. Peabody very
naturally declined to marry a woman whom
he could not see to man whom he could.
The bashful bride had therefore to be per-
suaded to put in an appearance, q task
which the would-be husband found by no
means a slight one; and, at length, she
was half led and half dragged in to be mar
ried.
As she was evidently willing enough to
be wed, although so unwilling to be seen,
the doctor proceeded with the service, and
at length the rite was concluded in due
form.

ANEW INVENTION.
Cotton Picking Machine Perfected Which

VIII Do the Work of 100 Negroes,
AURORA, October 25.-T. b. Ball has
just returned from Mississippi, where he
went a few days ago to test a new
cotton-picker, an invention in which
he is interested. A company was
formed in Chicago some months
ago to experiment with and manu-
facture this picker. The capital stock was
placed at 81, 100000 The report of Mr..
Ball concerning the test of the machine in
the cotton fields is such as to make visions
of wealth float before the mental gaze of
the now enthusiastic stockholders. The
machine, while some defects easily rem
edied were revealed. demonstrated the possi-
bility of what has heretofore been consid-
cred impossible, namely, picking cotton
successfully by machinery. The machine
was driven up and down the rows rapidly,
and took up the cotton so clean that not a
double handful was lett, doing the work of
100 negroes. A stronger machine is now
being made, which will be finished in about
two weeks, and again taken to Mississippi
for another test upon the present crop of
cotton.

MINNEAPOLIS, October 25.-Rain had
been falling during the night, and the
weather was raw and lowering when the
International American excursionists left
St. Paul this morning. A reception COM
mittee, headed bv W. e. Steele, from the
adjacent city of Minneapolis, was in wait
ing at the station, and preceded the party to
Minneapolis, arriving here shortly before 10
O'Clock.
Carriages had been provided by the citi-
zens, but the delegates and attaches pre-
ferred to walk the short distance from the
station to the Chamber of Commerce. There
was a change in the regular programme
which had been arranged by the Reception
Committee, owing to the fact that the dele
gates expressed adesire to see less OF the in
dustrial and more of the educational.
The committee conducted the delegates
through the building and thence to the
Industrial School. The visitors seemed to
be particularly interested in the Sec
tion devoted to manual training.
They admired the work of the
young artisans, and some them were
wonderfully engrossed in study of the
various woods the boys used in the con-
struction of the numberless articles. After
completing their inspection of the -four
mills this morning each delegate was pre-
sented with handsome souvenir, the cover
being engraved with photograph OF the
mills. The subject matter was greeting
to the Congress and eulogy to Minneapolis
milling industries.
The luncheon which the party discussed
st the West at o'clock was an entirely in
formal affair, those present being the MEM
bers OF the visiting party and the members
of the various committees of entertainment.
The menu was q simple one and yet very
neat and attractive. After luncheon the
delegates took a short rest and then car
riages were called and an extended
drive was taken about the city. This
evening at 6 o'clock the party sat down to
an elegant dinner at the West. This lasted
about two hours. After dinner an elaborate
dress reception was given in the psrlors of
the hotel. A fvll orchestra was in attend
ance, and about 800 of the elite of Mime
apolis were in attendance.
William f. Curtiss has recovered from
his brief indisposition, and to the surprise
of the delegates, who believed him sick in
Chicago, assumed charge of the party again
to-day. AT the conclusion of the reception
the party took carriages and were driven to
the Chicago, st. Paul, Minneapolis and
Omaha depot, where at IL o'clock they
started for Sioux City.
