SONGS OF THE SEA.
A Sensational Incident on the
City Of New York.
The Captain Says There is No Copy Of the
Star Spangled Banner" on Board. So
Americans Get Up a Subscription

Especial TO THE Observation-Disclosures Cable. !
LIVERPOOL, June ia very sensational
incident occurred ON board the Inman
steamship City of New York, on June Is,
as she was on her voyage to this country.
AS Is usual, a concert was held in the sa-
loon and collection was made for two
chariSies-the Seamen's Orphanage, Liver
pool, and the Blue Anchor society, New
York. AT the conclusion of the programme
the passengers passed a unanimous vote OF
thanks to Captain Lewis, commander of the
ship, for the splendid manner in which he
had worked up the affair. Captain Lewis,
in returning thanks, said that the enter
tainment would conclude by singing the ma
tional airs, 'God Save the Queen" and
1.-The Star-Spangled Banner Then,
checking himself, Ne added, in the next
breath: "Oh, 1 forgot to say, there are no
copies of The Star Spangled Banner
aboard this ship; so We shall omit it on this
occasion"
Ar irmur of disapproval echoed through
the saloon. AT lass Henry Emerich, of San
Francisco, arose and said: Il protest
against this. / have eros led the Atlantic
in this vessel twenty times, and on each
trip that same excuse for not singing our
American national air has been MADE by the
captain. | think that even il il be true
there are no copies of the song aboard
there are sufficient number of Americans
present who know the song to sing it; and
if indeed there are no copies on board, here
is $40 to start fund to buy some, so that
the ship shall no longer be left in such a
destitute condition" At the same time
MIR. Emerich Indignantly threw down
on the table $50 gold-piece.
The patriotic example of Mr.. Emerich
was enthusiastically followd till the cabin
table resembled Tranby Croft baccarat
lay out. One gentleman wearing the badge
of the American order, Sons OF the Revo-
luton, in his button hole, exclaimed as he
threw down his money. 1.-THE man who
would let British ship go destitute of the
greatest song on earth is wretch whom,
twere base fiattery to call bowling idiot"
This sentiment was received with cheers
from both sides under the fire of which
they retreated in confusion leaving the
money behind him. His departure was
soundly Kissed By the Americans, and the
bone Of contention, "The Star Spangled
Banner" was sung by Englishmen and
Americans alike. Captain Lewis took this
reproof in such high dudgeon that he did
not favor the saloon with his presence dur
ing the rest Of the day.

Bureau OF American RepubIics, Information.

WASHINGTON, June 19.-The bureau of
American republics has received a copy of
the annual message of President Pellegrini,
of the Argentine republic, laid before con-
gress in May last. He states that the only
exceptional measures he Is compelled to
adopt is the declaring the city of Buenos
Ayres in state Of siege, and the suppress
sion Of the few newspapers that are stir
ring up strife.
The concessions of notional lands, cover
ing sc, 900 square miles, which have been
made to spectators for colonization pur-
poses, are revoked, as the holders Of the
concessions failed to carry out the condi-
tions on which they obtained the lands.
MANY public works had, of necessity. been
suspended for lack of funds. Assisted i'm
migration from Europe had been stopped.
The revenues for 1890 were in cur
rency, S73. 400, 900; the expenditures, $92,-
sou, 900, leaving deficit OF Sl9, 4O0,-
COO. The revenues for 1891 had been
President Pellegrini expresses the hope
that the country by the aid Of the mora
taribus' loan negotiated in London would
be able to pay its way the third year. The
trade returns were encouraging. Exports
were increasing and imports declining.
The financial crisis, the president says,
grows worse, only paper money, Of which
there are two hundred and sixty millions III
circulation, ID sustained atc0 per cent. He
estimates the losses since the crisis began
at 2OO, OOO, 900 pounds sterling. The National
bank now owes the treasury 500 0O0, 0C0 in
currency and $2.O0O,O00 in sold. He con-
siders the best solution OF the financial
difficulties would be to correct the defects
in the state banking system, revive the
credit OF the state banks and enable them
to continue. For this purpose he recon-
mends a parliamentary commission.
He adds: "But a gold standard is an in
superable difficulty in the way of resuming
specie payment If we want q metallic
basis we must resort to silver. All object
ions raised against q silver standard may
apply to Europe, but do not affect u.s."

ENGLISH POLITICS
Parliament Will Very Soon be
PrOrOgued.
STILL BOUNDING THE PRINCE
The Conservatives VIII Risk Their Chances
on the Passage Of the Irish Land Bill
The Government Sneered aL.

LONDON, June 49, Copyrighted 1881, by
the New York Associated Press. l-Parlia-
ment will be prorogued August 8. A Wig
orous effort will be made in committee on
the education bill to extend the operations
on the measure. Local party managers
have received authentic instructions to
prepare for the dissolution Of parliament
early next summer. The government in
tends to summon the house early In jan
uary and stake their fate on the Irish local
government bill.
They calculate to dissolve parliament
after carrying the bill. The conservative
uncertainty over the future OF the party is
leading to further refusals by present mem
bers to recontest their seats and
within the ministry itself discon-
tent is producing DISCRIMINATION.
Sir John +. Gorste expressed his con-
tempt for certain of his colleagues in the
the Manipur debate. Being obliged Off
cially to defend the Indian government he
made mocking apology for the brutalities
and stupidities of British rule abroad and
behind gibes at the Indian government
satyrized the Imperial government He
said Senaputty was a man of brains; that
his real crimes were independence and
originality and that the government pre-

Interpretation of the speech is that Gorste

power is about to close, is preparing for
the time when he will reassume with Lord
Randolph Churchill an independent posi-
ton, aiming to form and lead group strong
enough 10 give them eventual control Of or
at least the more prominent shall lead the
party.
The baccarat row is not yet over. Cobb
proposes TO ask Stanhope what the Duke
of Cambridge intends to de, if he will en-
force the anti gambling regulations in the
army. Regretting their weakness in aban-
doning the hunt on the Prince of Wales,
some other Radicals propose to raise the
subject again on the army estimates. II
the plan to sustain the Prince of Wales are
pursued, the Liberal leaders will not only
withdraw therefrom, but Gladstone pri-
vately states that he and his colleagues
must retaliate on the defamers. The I'M
concealed disgust of the bulk of the Liber-
erals over the proposed further action Of
parliament in the direction of censure of
the prince, may deter the monocrat Radi-
Gals from following up the quest.

of the severest protective character. Under

ture power 10 insure animals proper venti-

The meeting OF the National Liberal club
has arranged for organized opposition to
the amended American and Canadian regu-
lations for improving the conditions of
traffic and will reinforce the opposition
against the new measure, which really
aims TO oostruct the importation of cattle.
