THE BIG LOG JAM.
A Mile and More Of Packed Logs Go
Down the st. Croix River.

TAYLOR FALLS, MINI, Aug. 24.-Consider-
able progress was made yesterday in breaking
the big log jam in the st. Croix river at this
place. The 100 men and two steam engines
now at work removing the logs appeared
to accomplish but little during the forenoon.
About 2 pm, however, a section 400 feet in
length and as wide as the river broke of
from the foot of the jam and hoated
down the stream. This cleared the
river to point nearly 500 feet above Angle
rock, which had hitherto been the chief obstacle
in the way Of the logs. Nearly 5000, 900 feet Of
logs went out with the break off.
II was two hours before the boat and men
could get to work, the new foot of the
jam being before precipitous walls Of
solid rock. After two hours of tug
ging the jam hauled" and the mile
and more Of packed logs came roaring
down the river. The movement was so sud-
den that the river drivers had barely time to
escape. II is estimated that 100000 feet
foated out, making q total of over IL, DOC, 900
feet for the day. The logs after running 10
minutes choked up again at Angle rock and
the jam is once more solid.

TODAY'S YACHT RACE.
Clear Weather and a Fresh Breeze at
Marblehead.

MARBLEHEAD Rock, MASS, Aug. a. II am
The weather ia clearing and the wind has
freshened considerably. The judges steamer
has just come out to the starting point and the
race will probably be started coon. All of the
forty-footers are here except the Gorilla.
1921 p.m.-The start in the Corintbian yacht
clubs midsummer regatta has just been made.
The wind is very light. The start was a
good one in all classes. In the forty
foot class the Tomahswk soon drew
away from the Chiquita. The Alice and
Minerva had pretty brush at the start. The
Minerva finally drew away at pace that prom
ised well for victory. In the thirty-footers the
Kathaleen was third at the start, but soon over
hauled the Saracen and shark and led the feet
lao p.m.-All the yachts are now out Of sight
in the haze and the chances are that they will
not be seen again until nearly home. There is
little prospect Of the breeze freshening.

THE BEHRING SEA SEIZURES.
They Have Not Yet Become the Sub
ject Of International Correspondence.

Acting Secretary Wharton, State Depart
ment, speaking Of Behring sea COM
plications this morning, said: 1--WE have
had, up to this time, no communication
with the British government upon the
subject of the seal fisheries in Behring sea.
The recent seizure Of sealing vessels are mat
tiers with which the Treasury department alone
must deal. as they have been made by vessels
OF the revenue marine service. The State
department becomes interested only when
international questions affecting the rights
of these sealers arise. ! can only say that up to
this time they have not been presented. We
have had no communication with the British
government upon this question since Mr.. Bay
ard was Secretary of State and the matter
stands exactly as it did when he left the depart
ment Until these questions are brought for
ward as involving points Of international law
the State department. has no action to take and
has, of course, officially no opinion upon the
subject. We have had no communications from
Minister Lincoln or from the British govern
ment upon the question.

Acting Secretary Walker today received the
following cablegram from Rear Admiral
Gherardi, commanding the north Atlantis

ing. We fear riot. I have notified the dfplo-
matte corps that will do ali can to prevent
riot. French and English captains win &C,
under my orders. 1t is very important tina,
the new minister should be sent immediately. y
THE eALENA TO SAIL TOMORROW.
The U.S.S Galena ID now under orders and
is expected to sail from New York to Hayti to.
morrow. The State department has, of course
taken no action in the matter, but win proba.
bly, instruct Minister Douglass to leave imme.
diateiy for his post. He will, it 10 thought
leave New York on one of the Clyde mai
steamers at an early day.
THE aALENA's TRIP.
The Galena will take at least week on the
passage to Hayh, providing she does not run
into the hurricane which is supposed TO be
coming up the. gulf stream in the opposite
direction.
THE POLICY OF THE NAVY DEPARTMENT..
Acting Secretary Walker says that 1t ap'
pears, from Admiral Gherardi's telegram, that
the worst Of the trouble is now over. Still !,
will be prudent and necessary perhaps to keep q
United States man-of-war in Haytian waters fol-
some time to come to provide against the con.
tingencies of riot or lawlessness which may en-.
danger American interests.
WHY MIR. DOUGLASS IS WANTED.
The Department of State has not yet com.
municated with Minister Douglass on the sub.
ject of his immediate departure for Hayti, al
suggested by Admiral Gherardi. II
is believed that the request foi
his presence is caused by belief that the rela.
tions between the present United States repre-.
sentative and the other foreign representative
have become somewhat strained
Meanwhile it is stated as o reason for the de.
lay in sending Minister Douglass to his post
that this government Is in grave doubt
as to the proper authority to whom
he should be accredited, and, while this was
something Of a problem in Legi-
times administration, it has be-
come even more complicated since
his departure, as the State department
is in entire official ignorance Of the terms OF
capitulation and the tenure by which Hippolyte
governs,

DEATHS FROM DiPHTHERiA.
The Results Of IN Investigation by {
Physician Of the Health Once.

During Two days, Wednesday and Thursday
Of this week, four small colored children died
At the house Of Q colored woman named
Thomas at No. l2lo 9th street. They were
Gertrude Thomas, 10 Year,, Alice Thomas. II
years; Bernard Thomas, years, and Mildred
Smith. 8 years. The fact that 20 many
deaths occurred in one family in such short
time gave rise to the report that diphtheriA,
from which they died, Gas prevalent In
that neighborhood. The presence OF
the dumping ground on Rock creek
near the house was the cause %.
signed for tie fatal disease by person.
hvlng II that locality. The report gained
credence when IL was learned that DIR. Suter,
VINO mad attended them, had also been stricken
with the disease.
DR. roofs uvEsrroArroNA
These rumors concerning the cause Of the
disease were investigated by DR.. Pool of the
health ONCE. II 10 true that there is Q dump
ing ground near the house Of Mrs Thomas.
In making the Investigation he found that there
had been from twelve to twenty cases
Of diphtheria in that neighborhood and tina,
nine deaths had resulted. Besides the
four deaths in the Thomas family
there were two in the house of q
family named Robbins; Alberta Wise died
at No. 1886 2sth streets; Charles jackson died
at No. 270S Olive street, and William T. Myer,
died at No. 1928 NJ street, not far from where
the other deaths occurred.
THE DUMPING GROUND.
When questioned ss to the cause OF the
deaths by STAR reporter DIR. Pool said he
did not think that the dumping ground had
anything TO do with it. The dump, he said
has been there a number of years. The street
sweepings now deposited there he though,
acted more as q dsinsectant than they did Il
create or spread disease. The locality re.
ferred to. he said. was bottom, in
which disease was likely to spread. II
is below grade and is really hot house, a.
there is no way for the air to get there. The
doctor thought that the drenching of that To-
cality during the recent food probably had
more to do with the disease than anything
else.
The cause of the disease in such cases cannot
always be learned, as the doctor said the dis
ease sometimes takes OF the people in the best
localities. The disease 10 not at all confined
to locality and filth does not necessarily affect
it. He thought that the prevalence of the
disease in that locality was about over
