New YORK, September 19.-Mall advices
from Cape Haytien, Hayti, Of September IL,
say that the election Of Presidential Elect
ors or deputies took place in all the COM
munes Of Hayti yesterday, but In the North
was a matter Of no interest, II having been
made solid for Hippolyte beforehand. The
electors are to meet at Gonaiyes on Septem-
Der 20, or as soon thereafter as possible, TO
choose president, and there Is no doubt
thar Hippolyte will retain the office. The
foreign merchants do not expect any lasting
quiet, even after Hippolyte has been formal
ly chosen president. They seem to doubt
the honesty Of his advisers, yet they all
speak highly Of the president himself. They
say that he will prevent them enrichIng
themselves out Of the state, and that his end
must come inside Of two years. The native
merchants have lost nothing. except part Of
what they loaned TO Legitime unsecured,
and the Increase In customs duties for the
next few years to pay for the material Of
war by Hippolyte. The foreign merchants,
on the other hand have lost the years profits
probably amounting TO 81, 100000, and have
been compelled to spend an anxious summer
here instead Of taking their annual trip TO
Europe or the United States. Business Is
good In all the towns from Port au Prince TO
Cape Haytien, but there Is great uneaslness
concerning the 5000 soldiers and sailors wait
Ing idly at the capital, who are now needed
to gather the coffee crop. 1t Is almost i'm
possible 10 get labor In any of the towns,
and all steamers visiting the island take on
additional deck hands at Turks Island or
Kingston to handle their cargo. Admiral
Gherardi and staff made an official call on
Hippolyte before leaving Port au Prince,
and from the complimentary remarks inter-
changed In that half-hour one may reasona-
bly, suppose that the two republics are on
good terms with each other.

SAFELY LANDED IN EIGHTEEN MINUTES.
Block Island Life Savers Promptly
Rescue a Maine Vessels Crew.
New York Pilots Bring to Port An
Abandoned Norwegian sarque.
A Maine Schooner Found Without
Captain or Crew Aboard.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., September 49,
Schooner James Young, with 700 tons Of coal
bound from Perth Amboy, N. j., to Thom-
aston, Me-, was driven ashore on the south
point of Block Island shortly after 1 o'clock
this morning. The wind was blowing half
gale from the northwest, and there was a
deluge of rain. The vessel struck on several
big rocks and stuck fast. Signals soon
brought the life saving crew and Captain
Dodge, and the captain and his four seaman
and a cook were taken off. Two were taken
from the rigging. The seas were running
very high when the Young struck, and after
lodging on the beach the waves broke COM
petely over her decks.
The life savers worked heroically, and In
eighteen minutes after they arrived at the
scene of the wreck they had safely landed
the whole party Of shiDwrecked seamen.
1t is thought by the Block Island wreckers
that she can be saved IL the wind does not
change or increase during the next few hours
She is in very bad position, and along on
the beach beside her are the remnants of
vessels and cargoes of eleven colliers wrecked
during the last five years. The place Is a
veritable coal mine, so many cargoes still re-
main there seaswept.
Superintendent Knowles of Point Judith
was early at the scene Of the wreck.
Later--The schooner James Young lies in
a bad position and is pounding heavily. 1t
is feared she will be total loss. She has
419 tons of coal aboard. The crew are being
cared for at the life saving station.

THE INSANE HOSPITAL.
Its Present Condition as Seen by the
Board Of Trustees.
lspecial to the Press. ]


AUGUSTA, September 19.-The trustees of
the Insane Hospital held their quarterly
meeting yesterday. All the members Of the
Board were present. A personal examination
of each individual patient of the hospital
was made by committee Of the Board, who
reported that there were 5S2 inmates of the
hospital. The general health of the hospital
at this time is excellent. There have been
no cases of diphtheria for several months,
and the building of barracks outside has
been Of great benefit to the patients, and all
the wards of the hospital have been rem
Oyated by a thorough disinfecting process,
while the walls have either been painted or
thoroughly whithwashed The rooms pre-
sent very cleanly appearance. The con-
struction of the new pavilions is being push
ed In very expedious manner, and the con-
struction thereof is said to show the best ap-
pearance Of any of the buildings that have
been previously erected.
-Four thousand dollars was appropriated
by the Board yesterday, to be expended for
plumbing, and that part of the work will be
let out by contract to the lowest bidder at
an early date.
A contract for heating all the buildings by
steam to be made at the plant of the Angus
the hospital, has been agreed upon between
the trustees and the Company. The price to
be paid Is $11, 900 per year, and the contract
runs te / years. This will prove to be an an
nual saving of $4,000 year over past ex-
penditures for heating. From careful exam
nations that have been made of heating by
this methed in other cities by the trustees,
there Is no doubt that the method is practi-
cable, and will result in the above mentioned
saving. The lumber company will use for
fuel slabs, sawdust and other mill refuse
that has formerly brought but little return.
The Augusta Lumber Company, at an ex-
pense of $4,000, furnish the boilers and all
the pipes and other apparatus necessary to
c.nnect with the pipes already in use in and
about the hospital
The management of the hospital appears
to be thorough and capahle

A RIOT IN NAvASSA.
Americans Reported Killed But the
Report Declared ImprobabIe.


WASHINGTON, September ia cable dis
patch has been received at the Department
of State from Consul Allen at Kingston.
Jamaica, saying that riot occurred at Ma
vassa, an island In the Caribbean Sea. In
which number Of Americans were killed.
The Consul says that at his request a British
wal snip had lett Jamaica for the scene i'm
mediately upon receipt of the news of the
trouble. The dispatch contained no further
information. 1t is learned at the Navy De-
partment that the U. S. steamer Galena is
now on her way to Navassa, aud will proba-
BY arrive there tomorrow; She was at st.
Nicholas Mole, Hayti, when news of the
riot was received at Washington, and was at
once ordered to Navassa. This island is
under no particular jurisdiction, but is re-
garded as under the protection of the United
States. II IS said to be owned by an Ameri-
can company, Of which Gen. b. F. Butler is
member, 1t is about 25O miles from Kings
ton and Is known as guano island. oT3-l1
BALTIMORE, Md, September 19.-The Ma
vassa Guano Company of New York has
owned oy the island since 1854. The receivers
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, and that their foreman has
peen there three years and never had any
difficulty, and that it is unlikely that he has
now.
The Baltimore agents of the company
think that probably an English captain,
thinking he could make better charter else,
where, wishing to break the charter with
the company, went over to Kingston. only
sixty miles distant, and made this false re-
port.
The company has employed on the island
100 men sent from Baltimore, colored labor
ers and white officers, and the only harm the
report can do is to unnecessarily alarm the
families OF these men. Gen. Butler has no
connection with the company,

Indians have good schools, fine farms. build
ings and fences, and as fertile and beautiful
a section of country as one could wish. The
Indians offered about as much land as the
commission wanted for S2,000,000. They
asserted that the mineral land was very
valuable, and one of them had some fine
specimens of gold-bearing quartz from a
ledge, which, he said, he had traced for three
miles. The Indians at last consented to
sell 250,000 acres of the north end of their
reservation for $500.OOO, and an engagement
to this effect was signed by the commits
si0ners, Gen. SalteZ, the chief, the head men
and adult males of the tribe to the number
Of 140. 1.-THE agreement made with the In
dians Is confirmed the mineral lands will be
covered with prospectors. The commission
