FOUR NEGROES WOUNDED.
A Race Quarrel In cretna, La, Ends
In a Fire and a Fight.

New ORLEANS, May 13.-Trouble which
has been brewing for several days between
the whites and blacks Of Gretna eliminated
Saturday night in the wounding Of four ne
groes and the burning Of the negro fire COM
pany's engine house, the negro Baptist
Church and four small houses occupied by
negroes. The trouble originated between
the races last Tuesday on the occasion Of the
parade of the white fire department. The
negroes assembled in large numbers along
the line of parade and ieered the fremen.
Finally a difficulty occurred. In which
two Of the white men were
seriously stabbed. This created great ex-
citement and much ill-feeling on both sides,
which was aggfaESated Dy the h, iacs snas tb the
negro who did the stabbing was brought, re-
leased him on a bond OF $3.50. It was re-
ported Friday night that riot had begun In
Gretna, and large force Of police from this
city went to the village to keep the peace,
but no trouble ensued at that time. The ne
gro military company In Gretna had its arms
and ammunition stored in the engine house
OF the negro fire company, and at o'clock
yesterday morning the engine house was dis
covered to be on fire. A number Of the
rOugher elementof whites gathered at the
fire, excited by the discharge Of the guns In
the engine house as the fire reached the
weapons, and then opened fire upon the ne
groes. Instantly the latter scattered In all
directions, without returning to the fire. 1t
was subsequently learned that four Of them
had been wounded. but none Of them dan
gerously. The fire spread to the residence
Of G.. r. Brown, the negro member Of the
legislature, and that too was burned. Short
ly afterward 1t was discovered that the me-
gro Baptist Church, some distance away,
was also on fire, and this, with three adjoin-
ing eOttapes occuDied bv negroes was also
burned. The fires were Of incendiary ori-

WASHINGTON IRVING BISHOP.
Death of the Man Who Has Puzzled
Two Hemlspheres.

New YORK, May 13.-Mr. Washington
Irving Bishop, the mind reader, died at "a
West Twenty-sixth street, shortly after noon
today. For some time past he has been in
falling health. but kept up his travels around
the country. A few weeks ago the re-mar-
riage to his present wife was chroniclei, the
second ceremony being performed in order
to follow the divorce decision in the case Of
Mr.. Bishops. previous wife. As mind
He would discover the most carefully hidden
objects merely by Thought transference"
gained through holding the hand of the man
who hid the object. Ten years ago Mr..
Bishop created considerable of a sensation
BY his exposures Of spiritualistic tricks. He
then went abroad and gave exhibitions be-
fore the Prince of Wales, the Gar OF Rus
sia, the King Of Sweden and other notables,
receiving numerous decorations and crosses.
Mr.. Bishops death was caused by hysterical
catalepsy. He went to New York on Friday
and stopped at the Hoffman House. Last
night he was invited to the Lambs Club,
where an entertainment and supper was be-
ing given. Mr., Bishop took part In the en-
tertalnment and gave successfulIexhibition
Of his famous dagger trick. He then tried
another trick entailing considerable mental
effort. and was thereupon taken i'll. He was
carried up stairs and put to bed, but he re-
covered soon and was able to 20 through
with the trick again. He was taken i'll
again, however, when Drs. Thorn and Lee
were called in and pronounced Mr.. Bishop
to be in very dangerous condition. The
physicians remained with him all night,
using electrical and other appliances. At Ii
o'clock today he became much worse and
death followed.
Portland people will remember that il was
to duplicate Mr.. Bishops performance tha

in his trips. Mr.. Montague met with good
success, explaining it by saying that he was
directed to the hidden.objects by thelinvol-
untary movements in the right direction of
the persons whose hands he held and who
had seen the articles hidden.

Library of Portland Authors.

DIR. Charles E. Banks has presented to the
Public Library collection of the published
writings Of native Portland authors, COM
prising twenty-seyen bound volumes and
number Of pamphlets. The volumes by the
terms Of the gift are to be separately shelved
and designated and not to be taken from the
library building The trustees of the libra
ry will probably add to this such volumes Of
their own as will help complete the collec-
tion and the donor will add to it from time
to time any needed volumes as opportunity
occurs to secure them. Many of the works
of the earlier authors Neal, Willis, Free
man, lngraham and Deering are very rare
and examples of each are included in the
gift John Neal alone is credited with the
authorship of over twenty separate titles,
and Willis has nearly as many, not small
portion Of which were published abroad and
never reprinted in this country, making
them ex cessively hard to obtain. This col
lection Is to be confined to authors born in
the city, and when completed will number
considerably over hundred titles, many Of
them were ephemeral, particularly the early
"yellOw covered" dreadful of Rev. j. III.
Ingraham, who produced them with great
rapidity before he saw the error Of his ways,
studied theology, entered the ministry aud

Splendid Summer Houses on Beau
tIful Coast-A Boom In Real Estate.
Correspondence Of the PnEss.l

Correspondence OF the PnESsl
CAMDEN, Me-, May IS, 1889.
The boom in real estate on the coast is now
at its height. Capitalists from New York
and Philadelphia are securing the most
available locations. At Islesboro $500, 900
have been expended, and the adjacent ISL
ands are being bonded. Capt Rodney With
erspoon, who owns Butter Island and the
Bar islands. which contain about 400 acres,
has offered them for sale recently, and Is
now negotiating with New York parties for
the sale Of the same. This group Of islands is
directly east of Camden, only 12 miles away,
reached from Rockland via steamer Bluehill
In one hour and half. On the bay in our
immediate vicinity there has been a marked
change since the season Of 1888. At Bay
Point, Rockland, an elegant hotel has been
erected, and broad highways are now being
built from there to points Of interest in the
vicinity. Water and electric lights will soon
be introduced, and the whole plant beauti-
fed by elegant villas. This Is to be the
Newport of Maine. The syndicate who own
it, represent more wealth than any other in
terested In seaside property, and no number
or party buying site can build villa cost
ing less than 5000.
Adjoining this is Warrenton Park, the
home Of the Smith Bros, railway magma tes
of Kansas City, Mo. They have elegant
residences and grounds. Across Clam Cove,
an historic place In the revolutionary war,
the highlands again extend to the coast. and
we understand the whole shore to Ballard
Park, Camden, Is now bonded, some three
miles. Here Is pretty park, with tasty
summer residences. This park Is only three
fourths Of mile from Rockport on the Bay,
a village In Camden. Here Is the elegant
summer home Of Hon. 4. 4. Richards, which
had extensive improvements In 1888. And
now, .with its elaborate architecture and
beautiful grounds it reminds one Of Idle
Wild, the romantic highland home Of the
late N. p. Willis, the poet.
Opposite this villa Is the new Queen Anne
residence of III. l.. Shepherd, built In 1888,
one of the finest in town with its handsome
surroundings. Near by is w. A. Merriam's
fine villa. completed In 1888. Here Is an ex-
cellent harbor, charming location, gems Of
inland and sea views, which offer attractions
to the lovers Of the beautiful, while its lndi-
an legends and tales OF warfare are OF spe-
eial interest to tourists. Here the artists
find strides In marine and highland views
that transferred TO canvas are called gems
by critics. Across the harbor Is Beauchamp
Point, rich in legendary lore. In fact the
whole coast line in this vicinity offer themes
for the poet and the lovers OF the antique.
Following east on the shore line from Rock
port. (Camden's suburb, you come to Ogier's
Point, at the southern entrance Of Camden

AFFAIRS AT SAMOA.
Information Of the DoIngs Of the
shIpwrecked American Crews.

SAN FRANCISCO, May ia letter from
Apia, Samoa, dated April II, says that the
town has the appearance Of a camping ground
and that since the great hurricane more peo-
pie are living there than ever before.
The divers were sent down to examine the
hull Of the flagship Trenton, but owing to
dangerous under currents they were not able
to ascertain the full extent of the injuries.
The safes of the Trenton and Vandalia were
recovered.
Admiral Kimberly made contract with a
New Zealand company to convey the Nipsic
to Auckland. The Nipsic had not cleared
the mouth of the harbor when the starboard
end of the spar to which was attached the
steering tackle weakened. A sharp squall
came up and the heavy strain, In trying to
head her to sea, was too much. In i've min
utes the port end of the spar broke away and
the steering apparatus was rendered use
less.
Admiral Kimberly will send the Nipsic to
Auckland just as soon as another rudder can
be made. He said the ship was sound and
could make the trip. The admiral is very
anxious to get the Trenton and Vandalia
men to San Francisco as soon as possible.
They are being kept at Apia at very heavy
expense. Through Admiral Kimberly's eff
forts Mataafa and Tamasese have agreed
upon temporary truce and promised to do
nothing TO alter Inc present peaceful state OF
affairs until after the Berlin conference has
adjourned. Not more than one-third of the
bodies of the victims of the storm have been
recovered and 1t is supposed that the greater
number of them were washed out to sea or
fastened in the coral reefs and sunk in the
wreckage.
A body. supposed to be that of Captain
Schoonmaker of the Vandalia, was found on
the beach four miles from Apia. 1t was
buried on German plantation near the spot
where it was found. Paymaster Arms's
body, which has been positively identified,
was washed ashore near the house of Cap
tain Hamilton, an American citizen living in
Apia. Captain Hamilton buried the body in
his yard.
The body of Pay Clerk Roche was also
found about mile from the wreck Of the
Vanda]ia.
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, May 13-The
steamer Mariposa, which left Tutuila about
April %, has arrived here and brought news
Of the arrival off Apia of the storeship Mo-
nongahela, which left San Francisco Febru-
ary IS for Samoa with full cargo of stores
for the feet. A private letter says that the
Monongahela arrived off Apia April 6. and
was ordered TO Pago-Pago by Rear Admiral
Kimberly.
The Rockton, the steamer chartered by
Admiral Kimberly to bring the shipwrecked
officers and crews TO San Francisco,is now on
her way, leaving Admiral Kimberly and 20
men on the island.

FLAX FOR LINEN WEAVING.
A New Enterprise for Thrifty Anerl-
can Farmers.

WASHINGTON. May 13.-Prof Willetts,
Assistant Secretary of Agriculture, recently
received letter from Ireland which the
Professor thinks may solve the question Of
'What shall take the place of wheat on
farms where it can no longer be raised at a
profit?" The writer has been familiar with
fax growing in America since 1910. There
are only two linen weaving establishments
in America, the writer says, one at Webster,
Mass, and the other at Appleton, Wis,
neither weaving anything finer than crash.
He says there is every reason why the Amer
ican farmers should produce yearly million
acres:of fax. botn for seed and fibre, above
what is now produced, which would give H.
100000 to 100000 bushels of seed, worth
many millions of dollars. and 100000 tons
of flax straw, worth $4,000, 900, and from
which 100000 tons of flax fibre would be OBJ
talned, worth $100,000000.
The writer claims to have discovered a
process by which, in five minutes, he can
produce from the dry, natural straw perfect
fibre, the color of cotton and fine as raw silk.
A sample of the fibre produced by the new
process was enclosed in the letter, and it
was so satisfactory to Prof. Wiletts that he
informed the sender that the subject of his
letter would be earnestly considered by the
department.

PARDONING AN ARMY OF DESERTERS.
Their Capture Costs the Government
More Than They Are Worth.
A New Branch of Agriculture Rec
commended to the Farmers.
Final Decision In the Celebrated
Myra Clark Gaines Suit.

WASHINGTON, May 1S.-lt is probable the
President will issue proclamation granting
pardons to all deserters from the United
States army. whether under confinement or
at large. Since 1878, 10000 enlisted men in
the army alone have deserted, and about
5000 have been captured. The pardoning
will save the government the great expense
constantly entailed in capturing those at
large and convicting them. Secretary Proc
tor evidently favors the plan, and has or
dered the release of numbers of deserters
confined in the military prisons.

IBRAvE MRS. GAMBLE.
Her Revolver Prevents an Exodus
from an Ohio jail.

PITTsBUGR, Pa, May 13.-A special from
Akron, Ohio, says: The prisoners in the
county jail, all indicted for penitentiary
offences, made an attempt to escape last eve-
ming Harry Burns. the leader, unlocked
the heavy corridor door by hard wood key
he had made after making an impression of
the lock. Mrs. w. B. Gamble, the deputy
sheriff's wife, was the only adult in the
front part of the Jail. She ran in and shut
the guard door, made of light iron bars The
prisoners were advancing on this, Burns
armed with an iron bed slat, when Mrs.
Gamble seized revolver and cried out /:
"The first one who touches this door is
dead man." The prisoners could easily have
broken the door down, but the cooked revol-
yer held them at bay until the arrival of
Sheriff Bum, whom Mrs. CANDLES daughter
called by telephone. The prisoners were
then secured and put in their cells.
