INHUmAN CRUELTY.

The Terrible Treatment she Crew Of the Ship Solitaire Receive At the Hands of the Omcers-One Man Knocked From the Rigging and 1n. stantly Killed.
 PHILADELPHIA, April 18.-United States deputy marshals are looking for Captain E. R. Sewell, First Mate F. Ryan and Second Mate J. W. Robbins of the ship Solitaire, which arrived Monday night. The warrants for the arrest of all three officers, issued by United States Commissioner Eamunds, charge them with cruelty, such as has seldom been reported on shipboard in recent years. The story of that cruelty includes the murder of a seaman by being knocked from the fore upper topsail yard by the sec- ond mate to the deck far below, killing him instantly, continued brutality and overwork from the time the ship sailed from Dunkirk, si1ty-four days ago, until she arrived in the Delaware river. Ryan, the first mate, halls from Bath, and Robbins, the second mate, from Yarmouth, N. s. She had @ crew of 15 men. Thereiwas one American sailor, Charles Coombs of Port Richmond, Patrick O'Neill, an Irishman, and the others are for the most part Danes and Norwegians. According to the crew they were no sooner well under way than their hardships began. On March Il Coombs, the American, William K. kHolm, Dane, and two Germans were ordered aloft to take in sail. Roaring with oaths at the top of his voice, Robbins, the second mate, mounted the rigging after them almost before they had begun their task. Coombs stood next to the mast as the mate came up and Holm was next to him. Aiming blow at Coombs, with "What are you doing, you - - =?' he hit him in the neck. Losing his balance the American fell eight feet when he caught the buntlines and saved himself. With the same remark the mate struck Holm, who, accord ing to Coombs, gave frightful yell and fell like stick to the deck. He was instantly killed and was buried next day. This event did not in any sense moderate the storm of brutality. The crew continued to be beaten and overworked until off the capes. Coming up the river when near League Island the captain sent the first and second mates ashore, because he did not care to bring them into the city for fear they would be arrested. He brought theisolitaire to the city and then he, too, disappeared. He did not even go to the shipping commissioners office with the articles so that the crew could be settled with. The ship was taken charge of by brother of the captain. who attended to settling with the crew.

WASHINGTON NOTES.

WhIteIaw Reid Takes the Oath Of
 Once-J. HI. Cozxens Appointed CoI-
 IectOr of Customs as Newport. R. I.
 -Apprehension Reg arding the Open-
 ing of Oklohoma.
 WASHINGTON, April 1S.-Whitelaw Reid, the newly appointed minister to France, took the oath of office at the department of State to-day. He will sail May for his post as minister to France.
 The president this afternoon made the fol- lowing appointments: John H. Cozzens of R. l., to be collector of customs for the district of Newport, R. I. Marshall J. Corbett of New York, to be assistant appraiser of mer- chandise in the district of New York. Mar vile W. Cooper of New York, to be ap- praiser of merchandise in the district of New
 York.
 J.H. Cozzens, who WAS to-day appointed collector of customs at Newport, R. l., held that office under the last and previous ad- ministrstions. He was one of the Republi- can officials continued in othce by the Demo- cratic administration.
 It is said at the treasury department this afternoon that the appointments of MT. Cooper as appraiser and Of Mir. Corbett as assistant appraiser at New York were based almost entirely upon the recommendation of the business men of New York. While Mr. Cooper is 8 Republican in politics his ap- pointment cannot, it is said, be considered as political one. He is 8 member of the dry goods firm of Sprague, Smythe 6 Co.,, and is said to be eminently qualified for the off, fee.
 It is very apparent here that officers of the army are filled with the liveliest apprehension regarding the opening of Oklahoma. The Secretary of War has authorized the state ment that the government Is fully aware of the situation and has arranged to take all proper steps to prevent trouble. The in- structions sent to the commandant of the troops in Oklahoma, as result of the opin- ion rendered by the attorney general, were extremely guarded. They are understood to direct army officers to assist in the mainten- ance of law, but to carefully observe the regulations, defining their authority, and leave arrests for violations of law to the United States marshal. The President might, in case of serious disturbance, declare martial law over the territory. Fell From she New Bridge at Niagara. NIAGARA FALLS, April 1s.-Carmine Mon- dia, aged 25, native of Salerno, Italy, while at work to-day on the new suspension bridge across the Niagara river slipped from the center of the structure and fell 200 feet to the water. The body rose to the sur face few seconds later and drifted several yards down ike river to an eddy into which it disappeared. The body will have to run the rapids and will probably be found in the large whirlpool.

Very Risky Indeed.

To tamper with symptoms indica- tive of growing kidney disorder; to neglect for 6 brief time needfnl stim- ulation of the renal organs when their inactivity points, as 1t always and un- mistakably does, to their eventual per- manent disease, is certainly very risky indeed. This is, however 6 risk that many persons perceptibly drifting into Bright's disease, diabetes, catarrh of the bladder, etc, constantly incur. So those who read, reflect and heed the lessons of recorded experience, the a1visabilit of using Hostetter's Stomach Bitters as a diuretic, need scarcely more than 8 suggestion. No fact is more generally admitted by the medical profession and the public than its efficacy for the prevention of seri- ous renal disease. The unmedicated excitants of commerce, no matter how pure, bear in mind, react prejudicially upon the kidneys when inactive. The Bitters subdues malaria, constipation and rheumatism.
