other States. Houston told him be cons'd-
cred the enterprise worthy one. but one
which he feared he would find difsculty in
accomplishing, owing mainly to the fact
that considerable money would be required
to transport the people to the States named.
Lindsay replied that there would be no
trouble about that matter; that the people
were anxious TO go; that many wanted TO
locate in Indiana and would cheerfully pay
their own fare and freights. and that those
who were not able at the time OF removal
TO do so would consent to have the money
advanced to them tor that purpose taken
from their wages, so the only thing TO be
done was 10 find employment for them
After hearing this from Lindsay, Houston
consented 10 do what he could to aid him
in his efforts, jus; as he would have done,
he says, had asingle individual approached
him and asked for information concerning
the possibility of finding employment in
Indiana. Lindsay made no other propo-
sltion, and had he proposed political
scheme Of the kind set forth in the World,
1t would bave been promptly and emphat-
ically sat down upon.

NEW MEXICO.
Annual Report Presented by Governor
Prince.

Annual Report Presented by Governor
Prince.
WASHINGTON, October 9Th. - Governor
Princeo New Mexico, in his annual report,
makes an earnest appeal for the settlement
of the question of land titles in that Terri
tory. OF 2l3 grants presented to the Sur
veyor-GeneTal for action testimony had been
taken in l62, and reports made to the Inte-
r.or Department previous to 1870. Congress
acted upon only forty-four of these cases,
and during the next decade has acted upon
but one, and since 1S79'has not attemp pted
to consider any cases whatever.
The plan of having Congress act upon
these claims, he says, is preposterous fail
ure: During the year the entries of public
land aggregated 1.773.
The total assessed valuation of property
in the territory was $46041 .010 and the
territorial Indebtedness $50, $50. Crops of
all kinds are fullyup to the average, and g.
larger acreage was planted this year than
ever before. The cattle industry has greatly
improved of late The sheep-owrers also
had'a good year. The mining industry is
in a fiourishing condition. The total output
of gold. silver, lead and copper segregated
over 81 900 600.
The Governor, in conclusion, makes a
strong plea for Statehood and says~none of
the Territories recently admitted compare
with New Mexico in population, wealth,
intelligence, or in every quality necessary
to build up prosperous Statehood.

News Concerning the Firing Upon the
Schooner C. G. White.

Schooner c. G. White.
SAN FRANCISCO, October 6th.- The
steamer Alexander H., which arrived Sun
day night from Siberia. brought further
news concerning the firing upon the crew
of the schooner G. G.. White off Copper
Island.
The officers of the Alexander say that
when the schooner appeared off Copper
Island she sent six boats toward the beach.
They were warned away, but no attention
was paid to the warning, and as the sealers
persisted in trying to land there, were fired
upon by the guards, first with blank and
then with ball cartridges.
The Alexander brought down 900 seal
skins for the Alaska Commercial Company.
The company's contract with the Russian
Government having expired, will be re-
newed for ten instead of twenty years.
A number of Americans at Yokohama
and other japanese ports are fitting out
vessels to go seal hunting under British,
Germs and Japanese flags. Next year the
Russian Government proposes to protect
the rookeries. Five Russian war vessels
are now cruising in Behring Sea, with ip-
structions to peremptorily seize any vessel
found sealing within the prescribed shore
limits, which is five miles.
1t is stated that the vessels which re-
Gently started on sailing cruises will not
cruise in Behring Sea proper. They will
station themselves at narrow pass called
Unimak, through which the seals pass on
their way to the rookeries. and there
slaughter them by the wholesale. The
knowledge of this fact influenced the
Alaska Company in making a contract for
ten years instead of twenty, as heretofore,
as the Siberian rookeries will suffer
severely.

WASHINGTON, October 6th.-The New

urday, disclosing an alleged Republican
scheme to colonize Connecticut, Indiana
and West Virginia with North Carolina
negroes does not claim much attention
here, because the above-named paper is al
ways regarded as ultra sensational, and not
very reliable.
A Washington Post reporter attempted to
interview all of the parties now in Wash
ington who were alleged to be concerned
in the scheme. Lindsay, the Carolina emf
grafton agent, would not talk. Colonel W.
w. Dudley regarded the whole story as
fake. and like good many Of the World S
spasmodic efforts to heap odium upon

When Immi. ra ion Agent Whitehead,
who was a confe ierate of Lindsay, according
to the World. attempted suicide by jumping
into the Ksnawha river, letter was found
upon his person signed by United States
Treasurer Houston, in which he said he was
heartily in favor of the scheme to colonize
Indiana, Connecticut and West Virginia,
and would speak to the President about it.
Mr.. Houston, when asked about his letter
by the Post reporter, acknowledged writing
letters to Lindsay, who he regarded as a
kind of philanthropist crank. In regard
to his speaking to the President about the
Lindsay scheme, he said he did not mean
President Harrison, but the President of q
local political board of Indiana.
Treasurer Houston further said that
Lindsay represented to him that his efforts
were entirely free from any political and
pecuniary significance whstever, his only
purpose and desire being to benefit the

DUBLIN, October 6th.-The Magistrates
Court at Tipperary, before which the cases
OF Dillon, o Briel and others are being
hsard, reconyened. this morning. Their
counsel. Redmond and Timothy Eealy,
were absent in consequence of Important
engagements elsewhere. On the behalf of
0'Mahoney, Dillon produced certiisates'
from two ClOnmel doctors, stating that he
is seriously ill., and that il is impossible for
him TO attend the trial Roman, the prose-
cutor for the Crown, obseted 10 the certifi-
Gates as not valid excsse. and insisted
that the doctors be summoned 10 testify ss7
to their patients condition. Dillon said.
the doctors certificates would have TO be
accepted as evidence; the doctors them
selves distinctly refused tO'Uome 10 Court
10 substantiate the statements they have
already made.
Roman then asked the Cart to adjourn
for an hour. to enable the Crown IN decide
whether the charge against 0'Mahoney
shall be withdrawn or an application made
for warrant for his arrest. The request
was granted.
Upon the reassembling of the Court,
Roman stated that the prosecution had tele-
graphed to two doctors in Clonmel to ex-
anime . O'Mahoney. and had sent third
from Tipperary to examine the defendant.
He expected the doctors would appear in
Court later aud testify as TO o Mahoaey's
condition. He therefore asked the C0urtto
take further adjournment Roman said
O'Mahoney, through his solicitor, had
placed the Court at defiance.
Dillon declared Mr.. Romans statement
untrue He had done his best to procure
the attendance of o'Mahoney's doctor In
Court
0'Srien said the defendants had a right
te complain against the course of the pros
ecution. Romans remark was addressed
to an audience in England, and was de-
signed to iDjure the defendants.
A scene of confusion ensued. Roman re-
pested the remarks again and again. Dill
Ion loudly defed them. The defendants
in the meantime protested against the
charges made by the prosecution. When
order was again partially restored, Dillon
warmly protested against the Court taking
any further adjournment. He maintained
that in justice no warrant could be issued
for the arrest of O'Mahoney until the
Court heard the testimony of his doctors.
Another heated wrangle then took place
between the Crown prosecutors and
Dillon. The Court finally granted Ro-
mans request and further adjournment
was taken.
The action of the defendants, who are on,
bail, will likely result in their committal
TO Clonmel Jail for contempt of Court.

SALT LAKE (Utah), October 6th.-At the
General Conference of the Church of Jesus
Christ. Latter-Day Saints, this morning,
the official declaration of President Wood
ruff, forbidding in future any marriages in
violation of the laws of the land, was read,
and the congregation, numbering nearly
ten thousand persons, including the
Apostles, Bishops and leading Elders of the
church, by unanimous vote recognized
the authority of the President to issue the
manifesto, and accepted it as authoritative
and binding.
George O. Cannon publicly announced
his Endorsement of the manifesto, and his
recognition of the supremacy of the laws
that had been declared constitutional by
the Supreme Court.
The Conference also readopted the origi-
nal articles of faith, among which is this ::
I'VE believe in being subject to Kings,
Presidents, rulers and magistrates, in obey
ing, honoring and sustaining the law"
The action taken settles the vexed ques-
ZION, and places an effectual bar against

The Union Iron Works VIII Probably

WASHINGTON. October 6;h.-While no
formal response has yet been received by
the Navy Department from the Union Iron
Works of San Francisco in regard to the
construction of the coast line battle ships,
Mr.. Scott, President of that company, who
is now in Washington, has intimated to the
Navy Department that they will undertake
the contract on the terms proposed by the
Department. They provide for building a
vessel twelve feet longer than originally
planned by the Government for $3, $50 .000
being 100000 more than Cramps offered
to build single vessel provided they get
the contract for but one, and also being
$50 900 less than the bid of the Union Iron
Works for single vessels under the original
plans of the Government.
The Department is desirous that the
three vessels shall be built ON the same
plans and the San Francisco company is
allowed 100000 more than the Eastern
company in order to cover portion of the
additional expense of transportation of
steel and other material.

LONDON DoCKMEN.
Letter From Steamship Manager Con-
cerniDg the Troubles.

LONDON. October 6th.-Mansger Allan,
of the Wilson Steamship Lines, wrote
Thomas Mann, labor agitator, month
ago, stating the result OF the dock strike.
The men at the Albert docks demanded
such extortionate pay, amounting to from
fifteen to twenty shillings daily, that they
constituted serious impediment to the
coal and grain trades. Grain shifting, the
writer said, is performed in Liverpool and
New York at one third of the cost at which
it is done in London. Later, in another
letter. he says he will be obliged to lay up
some New York steamers unless some sys-
tenn of pieee-work is introduced, and that
London will become prohibitive port.
Unless something is done, he must quit the
Albert dock.
He adds that because the Hudson Bay
Company refused to satisfy the demands of
the dockm men for drink, the men assumed q
threatening attitude and actually stole a
number OF sealskins. Mann has not re-
piled to these letters.
The London boats of the Wilson line
have all returned TO the Millwsll dock
management, finding it impossible to put
up any longer with the condition of affairs,

to-day from early in the morning until
late in the afternoon. Several large panes
in plate glass windows were broken by fly
ing signs. The roofs of several temporary
constructed buildings were blown of, and
the harbor was so rough that it was unsafe
for small boats to venture on it. Clark's
new steam barge and the Occidental Tug

pounded together at the wharf, and the
former was damaged over 1000 and the
latter about 500.
