A DRUNKEN CREW AT SEA
TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE OF TWO
MEN WHO KEPT SOBER.

Their Refusal to Supply the Debauch-
ers With More Liquor Followed by q
Savage Beating and Incarceration
in Jail at Extraordinarily Naked
and Half Starved When Released.
JACKSONVILLE, FLA, Sept. Fuller
details concerning the detention of the
steamer Jose NJ. Gonagano formerly the
Rosa of jacksonville at Baracoa by the
United States government authorities, are
learned from Philip Harris, who shipped
on her as steward when she left this port
on July 9. She was bound for Carthagena,
United States of Colombia, where
she was to be used on the Magdalena
river. She proved very unseaworthy, and
was detained three days at "Cotton Key
one of the Bahamas, by stress Of weather,
atterward putting into Baracoa for coal
Unable to secure fuel there, she was about
to sail for Kingston, when the trouble
occurred
MEN ON A DRUNK.
Some of the officers and men aboard had
been drinking heavily and demanded more
liquor of Quartermaster Maloney. Upon
his refusal, they set upon and beat him
severely. Steward Harris came to his
defense and the officers sent ashore for
guards, who arrested Maloney, Harris, and
two colored firemen aad put them iu jail
The United States consul there refused to
aid them, because, as he alleged, the vessel
was sailing under the Colombian flag. The
The United States consul at Havana was
induced to intercede for them, and they
were finally taken to that port.
NAKED AND HALF STARVED.
The men were nearly naked when they
arrived there and say they suffered great
hardships in the Raracoa jail. They were half
starved and destitute. Their clothes had
been stolen from them by the jail guards.
On arriving IN Havana harbor the cap
tain put them in prison again, because the
United States consul was absent from the
city. On the oonsurs return
they were released and
sent to New York, where the circumstances
were reported, and the government ordered
the detention of the steamer at Baracoa
because she was flying United States flag
at the bow and the Colombian flag astern.
She is still there awaiting the disposition of
her case. Harris says the steamer is un-
seaworthy and ought to be condemned.

LEAPED NIAGARA FALLS.
GRAHAM SAID TO HAVE MADE
THE TRIP IN HIS BARREL.

The Strange Graft Undamaged by It's
Plunge OF 900 Feet in the seething
Waters Below-The Daring Adven-
turer Taken Out More Dead Than
Alive, but Not Fatally Hurt.
MAG ARA FALLS, N. Y. Sept Last
Sunday afternoon Carlisle D. Graham made
successful trip through the whirlpool
rapids, maelstrom and Fosters flats, before
an assembled multitude of $1,000 people.
That was preparatory to his effort to-day to
pass over the falls, which, according to
Graham himself and few eye-witnesses,
was accomplished in safety. The same
barrel was used.
THE TRIP OVER THE FALLS.
At 9 O'Clock this morning it was towed
out into the river by Andy Horn and Gar
rett Stanley, and at 6 AS o'clock it was let
go at a point opposite Chippewa creek.
Down the current it swept, plunging over
the reefs, often out of sight, till at 7:30
o'clock iSapproached the brink aud dropped
2Od feet into the abyss below. The barrel
soon rose intact and was discovered in the
eddy.
GRAHAM MORE DEAD THAN ALIVE.
Elmer Jones swan out from the Canadian
shore, caught rope fastened to the barrel,
and towed it to the shore, where Graham
was lifted out by Jones and Mr.. Cahill.
Graham was quickly brought, more dead
than alive, to Horns saloon on this side. He
says: ''rhe first knew was when some one
struck the barrel and said: Graham, are
you alive?"
TERRIBLE PAINS IN HIS HEAD.
He complained Of terrible pains in the
back and head from the racking he had re-
ceived, and could talk but incoherently.
About dozen people verify the statement
that Graham was in the barrel, and many
more will say that they saw the barrel go
over. Graham was probably led to his ex-
plot by the appearance here of Steve
Brodie, with the avowed intention of jump
ing the falls.

WHY KIMBERLY DIDN'T COME.
The Adams Had Not Arrived, and He
Was Awaiting Eer.


Was Awaiting Her.
SAN Francisco, CAL, Sept. Among
the passengers who arrived on the steamer
Zealandia yesterday from Australia, via
Samoa, was Lieut. w. D. Rose of the United
States store ship Monongahela, now sta
toned at Pago Pago. He reports that the
United States steamship Adams had not
arrived at Samoa when the Zealandia left
there on Aug. II. but she was expected
every day. 1t was ON this account that
Admiral Kimberly did not leave for San
Francisco on the Zealandia. He expects to
return next month.
MALIEToA's RETURN.
King Malietoa and several chiefs who
were deport d with him by the Germans
two years ago, arrived at Apia from the
Marshall islands on the German gunboat
Wolff few days before the Zealandia ar
rived at Samoa. XII g Malietoa's return
was made the occasion OF general
rejoicing by the natives. His
health is reported to be broken
down, owing to his long exile, and
for this reason he will not attempt to re
sumo control of affairs for the present.

IT is stated in latest dispatches, that
Chancellor Bismarck has assumed more
conciliatory attitude upon the Samoan
question. Tt is full time, but nothing
should satisfy the United States but restora-
ton of the ssctass geo of the date Just prior
to the deportation of Malietoa. A second
prerequisite to any conference should be
ample and satisfactory explanation of the
arrests of Americans and insults heaped
upon citizens of the United States by Ger
man officials stationed in Samoa. The
news is that Bismarck will consent to Sa-
moan control jointly with England and
the United States through Consular
Board. But have we the right TO go even
to that extent Can the United States in
good conscience-agr to dominate, singly
or jointly with others. any friendly Gov
eminent Asa Republic, standing for the
right OF seli-goyernment. and that all Just
rule must have its spring and source in the
consent od the. governed. we cannot agree
TO the deprivation of the Samoans of that
right. To permit them to choose their own
ruler, bat subject him TO Consular control,
will be fsrcicaI-the equivalent TO depriv-
ing the people of the right of self-govern
ment. We have guaranteed the Samoans
that We will respect their independence.
Let us stand 10 our bargain, interfering
only so Ter as is necessary to protect our
own people, and as the dictates of human
ity justify.
