New YORK, May ga party OF sixty
Mormons have been detained at the barge

many Of them are latter day saints and
how many are polygamists. One of the
party, a sweet-faced young woman
scarcely twenty years of age, will GER
tainly be sent back. Her name Is Marie
Haselman and her story, as General
OBeirne has managed to gather IL bit by
bit, is uncommon. Marie's people are
very well-to-do. They live in Munich
and are Roman Catholics. The girl was
reared in that faith and ten years of her
girlhood was spent i'm convent A year
ago Marie announced that she was about
to adopt tlfe Mormon faith, and a few
months later she was baptized In the
Mormon church at Munich. Following
that her people disinherited her and she
decided to come to America with party
of Mormon emigrants. Marie Is very
much attached to one OF the elders, aud
upon their arrival to Salt Lake City their
marriage is TO be celebrated. In an In
terview this morning, Miss Haselman
said that she hadn't the least objection TO
her husband having just as many wives
as he liked, providing that he was capa-
BILE of supporting all OF them in proper
manner.

WILL NOT INTERVENE
A Protest Will Be Made If Valparaiso
Is Bombarded

WASHINGTON, May 29-The state de-
partment has not been Informed Of any
intention on the part of the Chilean in
surgents to lombard Valparaiso, as re-
ported from Paris. There IL no disposi-
tion on the part of this government, so
far as can be learned, TO Intervene" In
the Chilean contest. The meaning of this
term, in diplomatic language, Is siding
with one faction or the other.
II the insurgents should lombard the
city, IL is more than probable that the for
eign ministers would enter an energetic
protest based on the fact that the foreign
Interests In that city are larger than the
native Chilean interests.
In view of this large interest IL may be
that the protest, II dsregardod, may be
enforced by the foreign fleets in Chilean
waters, but this action would go no
further than necessary TO protect the
lives and property Of foreign subjects.

THE CANADIAN PACIFIC
Will Hustle for Business and
Traffic on Its Own
Account
The Scheme to Join the Immi-
grant Clearing House
Fallen Through
Making Preparations to Send
Sound Freight via Belling-
ham Bay

New YORK, May 29-The Sun says that
the scheme to get the Canadian Pacific
into the immigrant clearing house has
practically fallen through. That COM
pany thinks there Is more money In hust-
ling for business on its own account,
Notwithstanding the eXorbitant prestige
which the chairman Of the passenger
committee was In favor of giving it.
Several weeks ago the committee asked
the chairman and general passenger
agent of the West Shore TO confer with
Mr. McNicoll, of the Canadian Pacific,
and find out what inducements he wanted
TO join the clearing house. The chairman
gave out for publication that an agree
ment had been reached, and that the for
eign road might be considered as already
In the field. II was said that all the
trunk lines agreed TO the scheme.
IL now appears that the plan recon
mended by the chairman and the West
Shore and Canadian representatives, was
that the foreign road should be allowed
an average Of nearly 25 per cent. OF the
business TO the points reached by that
road. To some points IL was to get pei
cent or more OF the passengers. The
plan was not approved by certain OF the
companies, as reported. On the contrary
one general passenger agent was very
mad at the thought OF such a thing, anC
he suggested that the Canadian Pacific b.
allowed 10 per cent.
