DEATH VALLEY.
Thrilling Experiences of the Party Now
Exploring 1t.

SAN FRANcIsco. March 15.-The
Chronicles Keeler, California, special
says: The first authentic information
from the Death Valley expedition, for
some weeks, reached here today, dated
March 4th. Disagreeable stormy and
cold weather has prevailed during al
most the entire winter. Water from
the adjacent snowrcapped mountains
has turned part of the valley into lake.
On February 9th, the party crossed the
dry bed of the Armagosa. On the after
noon of the 7th, Professor Bailey crossed
at the same place through running
stream. On the 22d there was raging
stream twelve feet wide and three feet
deep at the same place.
Before leaving Resting Springs on the
7th of February, Professor Stevenson
and wife, of San Bernardino, joined the
party. On their arrival at Funeral
mountains, the party having had no
mail for four weeks, and Professors Fun
ston and Coville being at leisure for
few days, volunteered an ascent of the
Panamint range to the postoffice at Pan
amint. to secure it. In this ven
ture they had an unexpected and
hazardous experience, which nearly
resulted.in their perishing. They rode
up the mountain, which is very steep, to
the snow line, where they left their
horses and proceeded on foot. The
mountain is over eight Thousand feet
high. When near It's summit, they
were overtaken by binding snow
storm. They were in the mountains
for four days, fighting their way against
the elements, inch by inch, on hands
and knees, the snow being crust
ed and not hard enough to bear
their weight while standing. They
arrived at Panamint, and after resting,
they started back and arrived safely in
camp.
The party will soon separate into two
divisions. One in charge Of Professor
Bailey will proceed to the Colorado
desert via the Vegas river to investigate
the flora and mammology of that sec
ton. The rest of the party will push
north to the Gold mountains, Pigeon
springs and Ida valley, from which
point they will, in all probability, vross
the White mountains in April.
Every one is reported well, and work
is progressing as favorably as the iIcle-
ment weather will permit. The storms
of this winter are pronounced by old
settlers the heaviest ever experienced
in that section.

THE AMERICAN HOG.
Uncle Jerry Rusk Says His Rights Must
Be Protected Abroad

Uncle Jerry Kusk Says His Rights Must
Be Protected Abroad
WASHINGTON, March 15.-Secretary
Rusk was asked today what he thought
of the statement made by Minister
Boetticher in the German reichstag, to
the effect that the new sanitary meas
ures adopted by the United States were
inadequate, and that Germany would
not rescind her prohibition of American
hog products. Secretary Rusk said he
could hardly believe that such state
ment had been made, for it implies
willfuI or pretended ignorance Of the
legislation now in force in this country.
The last meat inspection law passed by
congress providessfor a more thorough
inspection than that now in force in any
other country. If an ante mortem ex-
animation and microscopic examina-
ton will not satisfy the German govern
ment, it is simply because they don't
propose to be satisfied with any system.
This government has suffered the
imputations placed upon it's meat prod
ucts by foreign nations to exist under
cover Of such pretexts for a long time,
but the time has about arrived when
unjust discrimination and false state
ments as to the purity of meats must
cease. Such statements will no longer
be permitted to 60 unchallenged by this
government, and such redress as the
laws of this country permit to be had
should, in my judgment, be .enforced. /"

Mass Meetings Held to Act on the New

Mass Meetings Held to Act on the New
Orleans Lynching.
CHIcAGo, March 15.-A large rep
resentative meeting Of Italians was
held here this evening, to consider yes
terday's doings at New Orleans. DR..
Volini, the presiding officer, delivered
an impassloned address, calling for rep
aratlon by the United States, and say
ing if justice be not rendered full and
prompt, Italy will speak even with the
voice of her guns. This declaration was
received with tremendous cheering
Editor Malata, Of T. America, said the
outrage has no comparison in the his
tory Of any civilized nation. He disa-
vowed sympathy with the vendetta, but
asked why the New Orleans authorities
permitted Parkerson to assemble thou
sands of citizens, and harangue them to
the point of murder.
| Charles Barry said the fact that prom
inent men took part in the massacre
makes it dOubly infamous.
| Galmagia of L'Italia eaid he had per-
sonally seen all the victims Of the mob,
and believed them innocent of the crime
charged. People who have no respect
| for their laws or the verdicts of their
own juries, said he, are worse than
savages. Reparation is demanded, and
Italy should send a feet over here to
command respect and assert the rights
| of her citizens.
| Many other addresses were delivered,
and message of formal protest sent to
| Secretary of State Blaine. A resolution
! was also adopted protesting against
the killing as unworthy Of a civilized
people, and appealing to the Italian and
United States governments for immedi-
| ate and full reparation.
PTTsBURG, Pa, March Is. The large
colony Of Italians here became greatly

their wages, no matter whom it be-
longed to. They brought suit and re-
ceived Judgment, and the sheriff was
ordered to sell the property. Mr.O'Brien
the owner asked for indemnity bonds.
The sheriff refused to sell the machine
until such bond was given by the court.
The court ordered that the officer appear
and show couse why he should not
make sale. Judge Gray took the matter
under advisement and sent his decision,
ordering the sheriff to proceed with the
sale without an indemnity bond. The
judge holds that the lien law protects
laborers from being swindled out of
their wages, and that it matters
not to whom the property belongs. 1t
must be held good for the payment. He
holds that SO long as the machine be-
longs to Mr.. O'Brien, he should have
seen that the men received their pay.

Redmond and Henry Harrison, the
delegates sent to this country by Par
nell for the purpose of raising funds for
the nationalist movement, arrived in
New York today from Queenstown.
An address OF welcome signed by

spoke Of them as ''the representatives
of Irish nationality as indorsed by
Charles Stewart Parnell, the leader of
the Irish nation" and bade them
hearty welcome to the shores of
America. The address went on to say
that the committee heard with regret
of the secession of those who preferred
the dictation of an English leader.
The delegates responded severally,
hoping, they said, that their mission for
getting cash for Parnell and his men
might be successful. They were driven
to the Hoffman house, where they oc-
cupy handsome apartments.

Anti -Parnellite Meetings Broken Up by
HOwling MObs.

moving MODS
DUBLIN, March 15.-At an anti-Par-
nellite meeting at Newry today there was
a scene OF great disorder, the Parnellites
turning out in strong force and doing
their utmost to break up the meeting.
About 5000 persons were present. The
disorder began when series of resolu-
tions denouncing Parnell in the strong
est terms was put to vote. The reso-
lutions were received by the Parnell
men with hoots and groans, and lively
personal encounters between the oppo-
nents and supporters OF Parnell took
place in every direction.
In the parish church at Mitchells-
town, today, Father Sexton said the
next election would probably result in
the retirement of William O'Brien, and
every effort should be made to elect a
McCarthyite for the district.
The Parnellite meeting at Middle
town, today, was sparsely attended, and
Harrington and Clancy were unable to
get hearing when they attempted to
speak. The police had to be called upon
to suppress free fight.

Both President Harrison and Gov.

Thursday, as a day of public Thanks
giving, recommending that the people
assemble in their respective churches
to unite in a public demonstration OF
PRAYER. praise and Thanksgiving.
Everybody will enjoy the bOunties
which the season affords, by well
spread luxurious boards, and it would
be seemly for them to acknowledge
the hand that thus so richly supplies
their wants. We should be thankful
that the gaunt spectre of famine does
not glare at US, as in Western Europe
or devastation by floods as in Southern
Europe, or dire civil wars, as in Chill
and Brazil. We should be thankful,
too, that a bOuntiful supply of the nee
essities and even luxuries of lite has
been shOwered upon US. The cOrnu-
copia has been emp,ied in our laps,
which has heaped them full and left
much to spare for our cousins over
the Atlantic, who are threatened with
want.
We have corn in abundance and
millions to spare. Our wheat eleva-
tors are all filed and our transpOrta-
