FIRING ON SEALING VESSELS.

War Ships in Behring Sea Pushing the

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Aug 13.-Advices
from Onalaska, under date of August Z,
state that during cruise in the vicin-
ity of Seal Islands, British war ships had
seen and warned one sealer, the Pleas
ant five, the Mohican five, the Thetis
two and the Alert two. Many of these
had to be fired on to make them halt,
and only one schooner succeeded in
running away. AS about fifty schooners
have received warning, the next cruise
Of the war ships will result more seri-
ously TO poachers if caught In Behring
Sea- The British war vessel Porpoise
has arrived here from the China
station, and each nation now
has three war ships here in addition to
the United States cutters. So far the
cutters have taken all the prizes On
July % the Corwin seized the sealing
schooner Ethel, of San Diego, and she
was brought to Ounalaska, and her crew
is now in the custody Of the marines.
She had taken fortyeight skins on the
day before the seizure, and had 80 in
all. Next week the steamer Alki will
be sent to Sitka with the prizes and the
prisoners and necessary evidence to
convict the latter.

Had she lived until the 4th of Septem-
Der next she would have been So years
old. The cause of her death was simply
exhaustion resulting from old age.
The bells throughout the city are
tolling, and expressions of sympathy
and regret are heard from the masses of
people as they gaze upon the bulletins
announcing the demise of this honored
and beloved lady, who spent her years
among the people she loved so we'll,
and who respected her as one of the
noblest of her sex. OF course, as yet
no arrangements regarding the inter-
ment have been decided upon.
Sarah G.. Polk earned the name Of be-
ing one of the handsomest, II not the
very handsomest, woman called upon
to do the honors of the White House as
wife of president. She was regarded
as one of the best entertainers Of her
time. In society she held high place,
not so much because Of her hospitable
nature as on account of the charm of
manner and the wonderful tact which
distinguished her. Mrs. Polk was q
bold innovator. When her husband
became president social circles through
out the country were in whlrl OF &C.
stacy; glorious times in Washington
were predicted. But the new lady of
the White House had little plans of her
own. She introduced at once the sys-
tenn of holding weekly receptions. This
was we'll and good, and in line with the
general expectation, but she issued q
ukase to the effect that dancing

the jigging and Keeling and setting was
abolished. The next reform was to
abolish the custom of giving refresh
ments to the guests. These reforms at
first sent cold chill through the hearts
of the bellies and beaux, but Mrs. Polk's
force of character stood the test, and
the receptions in every other respect
were rendered so charming by the host
ess that she soon regained her popu-
larity.
At one of these receptions promi-
nent South Carolinian said to Mrs.
Polk: Madam, there is woe pro-
nounced against you in the Bible" She
wanted to know what this meant.
"Well, the Bible says. Woe unto you

ABDUCTORS IN JAIL.
The Men Who Carried off millionaire
Perrien, of Detroit, Cnder Arrest.

DETROIT, Mich, Aug. 10. = On the
evening of March 10, Joseph Perrlea, a
millionaire Detroit business man, was
inveigled into hack from his home on
pretense of business, and kept for
torty-eight hours in some secluded part
Of the city. A ransom of $4,000 was
demanded by his abductors. Payment
being refused, at the expiration
of two days, he was blindfolded,
taken in hack and left
at some distance from his home. The
police made vigorous efforts to discover
his abductors, but they did not succeed
until late yesterday, when the city was
startled by the report that the gang of
kidnapers had been arrested. Five
men compose the gang: John and Nl-
ly Considine, Frank Gritfiths, James
McDoel and Tom Kennedy. They are
leaders of gang of crooks that has in
tested this city for years.

Polk: "She is one of the handsomest

highly popular. Her excellent taste in

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 13.-The
Navy Department has received a report
from Rear Admiral George Brown, coins
mander-in-chie of the Pacific station.
The report is dated Coquimbo, Chill,
July 3. He says:
About two weeks before my visit to
Pisagua the government torpedo vessels
Condell and Lynch, and the armed trans
port Imperial had, without any previous
notice. hombarded the city. They fired
tifty-fve shells into the city, but did no Sc
rious damage to property, and no one on
shore was even wounded. The same YES
sells appeared off 1Quique and began firing
at the city, but at such long range that no
proiectile reached the shore or could be
seen to strike the water, although
great many shots were fired. The
insurgent ships got under way and went
out at full speed but the government ships,
by their superior speed, did not allow the
insurgents to get within range of them.
The land forces Of the insurgents are main
ly concentrated at Iquique, where there are
about 5000 men we'll armed. Their aggre-
gate force at all the ports held by them
number about 5000. The insurgent naval
vessels Esmerelda, Cochrane, HuaScar,
MagelleneS, OhigginS and Abtou and sew
eral armed transports are generally at

WHEAT TOUCHES A DOLLAR.
Another Big Bulge in Prices on the

CHICAGO, Ill.,, Aug. 14.-During the
last hour on the Chicago Board of Trade
to-day wheat was very nervous. A dis
patch was received saying that Portugal
had prohibited the expectation Of wheat
till September l. Berlin was quoted
% cents higher, and Paris was
easier on near and higher on
long futures. There was every
appearance of manipulation, the mar
ket going up and down without ap-
parent cause. In the last -three-quar-
ters of an hour December wheat sold up
from 97Bc to 81, and closed only ] of a
cent under that. The bulge was accom-
panied by the most intense excitement.
In sympathy with wheat, corn touched
50 cents. and pork SOLO.
