FOSTER 5 FAIRY TALES.

He Sees No EVIL Resulting From the
Billion ID ollar Congress.
New YORK. June An company with
Murat Halstead, Secretary Foster this
evening visited the Union League club
in Brooklyn. AT a subsequent reception
he spoke in an informal way. He said
in part: "Our Democratic friends have
a good deal to say about the billion
dollar congress. Every move we make,
our Democratic friends seem to think
indicates poverty in the treasury depart
ment. Recently / thought it wise, and
prudent to propose the extension OF the
Az per cents. The treasury department
is abundantly able to pay these bonds
when they mature. In view of the fact
that $4,000, 900 in gold has been ex-
ported within a short period of time, l
deemed it unwise to do anything just
now to decrease the volume of currency
in the national banks. My prediction
today is that these bonds may be ex-
tended, and at the rate of 2 per cent.

tion of credit that exists nowhere in the

IoUIouE, June 4.-The steamship ltata

The Itata handed over all the arms
she took from San Diego.
THE ARMS ON THE rrATA.
The commander OF the Itata states
that the arms were not embarked at
San Diego, but at point
many miles at sea. The Iquique
government claims that this cir
cumstance modifes the situation
considerably, and will probably result
in speedy solution OF the difficulties
between the admirals and the junta.
The authorities at the same time declare
that the cargo of the Itata is of little

the small number of arms.

How the Surrender of the Itata Was
Brought About.
WASHINGTON, June 4.-The navy de-
partment received official information
tonight OF the peaceful surrender of the
Chilean insurgent steamer Itata, at
Iquique,, today. The information was
contained in a dispatch from Admiral
McCann. The Itata arrived from TOGO
pilla last night and was placed at the
disposition OF Admiral McCann this
morning. She had on board, the dis
patch says, 5000 rifles and also ammu-
milton taken from the schooner Robert
and Minnie, off the port of San Diego,
California. She had no other munitions
OF war than those belonging to the ship,
\ and had transferred nothing to the Es-
meralda, with whom she communicated
offAcapulco, Mexico.
Admiral McCann saws the cruiser
Charleston arrived at Iquique today,
and that the Pensacola was expected
before night.
The Itata will now be sent back to
San Diego, probably under the convoy
of a cruiser. She will be delivered to
the United States court officials at San
Diego, and the proceedings against her
will be resumed.
Secretary Tracy gave to an Associated
Press reporter tonight the chain OF cir
cumstances that led up to the peaceful
surrender to the United States OF the
Itata today. The secretary said that
the desire for her surrender came from
the leaders of the insurgent party at
Iquique.
Shortly after the vessel illegally es-
capped from the custody of the marshal
at San Diego, the United States govern
ment was informed by the insurgent
leaders that they disapproved the action
of the officers Of the vessel, and made
offers through Admiral McCann to
peacefully surrender her to the United
States as soon as she arrived in Chilean
waters. These offers were communicate
ed to the department at Washington,
and duly accepted by this government,
without, however, implying recognition
on the part of the United States of the
insurgents as belligerents. As soon as
the offer was accepted telegram au-
thorizing him to cease the chase was
sent to Captain Remyof the Charleston,
but the steamer had already sailed when
the telegram reached Acapulco.
Secretary Tracy said the Itata would
be sent up to San Diego.

tended the opening of Balmaceda's con-
gress, except the German and Ital-
ian ministers. The British, French,
German and Italian governments,
it is understood, have protested against
the decree closing to commerce the va
rious ports now held by the insurgents.
The representatives OF the insurrection-
ary party claim that these ports produce
revenue of $23 100000 annually, and
that there are $4,000 foreigners resident
in the provinces which the insurrection-
lists control.
Famine prices were said to be prevail
ing at Iquique. Meat was selling at 70
cents pound; potatoes at 500 a bag,
and -four at $50 bag.

CHICAGO, June Mrs. Hanchette. of
Los Angeles, telegraphed Lieutenant
Ripley, of the central station, this morn
ing, that she would pay reward OF
$500 for the location of her husband,
alive. The dispatch was immedia tely
sent to Sheriff Cooley, at Flandreau,
S. d., who believes he has located
the missing man, selling Kimball
organs. Mrs. Hanchette says her hus-
band is skillful organist, and the fact
that his brother, G. D. Hanchette, OF
Hancock, Mich, once sold Kimball
organs, lends significant app earance
to the theory established by the South
Dakota officers.

A SWELL SOCIAL EVENT.
General Schofieid Going to Take
Youthful Bride.

CHICAGO, June 4.--News of a social
event OF the first magnitude was pri-
vately discussed tonight among army
officers. Although not yet formally
made public, the announcement is said
to be authoritative that Major-Goner

United States army, who is widower
and is now in the west, will soon be mar
ried to Miss Georgia N. Kilbourne, of
Keokuk, Iowa. The date has been fixed,
but is not given out. The bride is quite
youthful, being schoolmate of General

Tho census brought out the fact that
a man can live in New York hotel for
ten years and never speak to any man
orenter into any communication with
any one except as to the commonplace af-
airs of eating and drinking. This cham
pion hermit lives at the Grand Union
Hotel and is known as. Bailey. That's all
that is known about him. There was
statement printed that the census man
had skipped that hotel, and in writing
to the supervisor to say that the story
was untrue and that the enumer-
ator, with the assistance of the clerks,
had made every effort to secure the
proper information as to all permanent
residents in the house, the proprietor,
Mr.. Garrison, added that there was one
man called Bailey, who. to the best Of
his knowledge, had not spoken a word
to a living soul since he first came to
live at the hotel, ten years ago, and
from whom 1T, had been impossible to
obtain any answers to the questions.
There has been a story told of another
similar hermit who used to live at a
large downtown hotel, but that one did
talk occasionally,

stays at home and nurses her sorrow

TALKS ON ASTRONOMY.

AT Greenwich the moon has been OBJ.
served with scarcely any intermissior
for $50 years.
TIE celebrated star Algoi has di
ameter of 1,116,000 miles, or 25G. 90
times greater than our sun.
The sun is tremendously large. 1t l..
equal to 100000 earths, but owing to
its small density its weight equals that
of only 332, 900 earths
IT has been demonstrated that many.
and probably most, of the stars are
suns, greater by far than our sun as
givers Of both light and heat
The sun gives 100000 times as much
light as the full moon; 1000, 00O. 000
times as much as the brightest star il
the sky, and 36,0OO,0OO times as much
as all the stars in the heavens combined
SOME of the seas which the telescope
reveals on the planet Mars have quite
suddenly become crossed by straight
lines; so straight and parallel that some
astronomers have thought them to be
bridges constructed upon an enormous
scale by highly-civilized beings.
EVERY advance in the improvement
OF the telescope has brought to our
knowledge still closer double stars the
distance between them being so magni-
led as to become visible and measur-
ole. But the spectroscope has revealed
us double star SO close that no tel
cope will show the distance between
= two stars.
ASTRONOMERS agree upon three mo-

story is as follows:
Mr.. Shy had settled on ranch
New Mexico with his wife and ypa

cen Apaches, who sought to drive off &

which was returned. The fight wa:
waged for some time, till one of the In
dams succeeded in crawling up to anG
setting fire to the house.
This necessitated fight; so, sending
Mrs. Shy forward under the smoke OF
the burning building, the husband and
father, carrying his young son under
his arm, made dash for the cover of
some thick brush which was growing
near by.
An Indians bullet went through tn
child's hip and lodged in the fathers
body, but the fight went on. Mr.. Shy
ran forward some distance and then,
dropping the child in the brush, would
face about, fire at the leading pursuer,
who would thus be brought to stand
still for time. Then another shot and
another stand, to gain time for Mrs.
Shy, who was fleeing in the front, and
so on the day was spent. The Indians
finally gave up the chase, which had
cost them no less than six warriors, and
the exhausted fugitivss managed to
reach the city of Deming with their
lives. The wounds received by both IA
Their and son were rapidly healed, and
now, when the hostiles are forever ex-
pclled from or killed out of that neigh
Jorhood, there is no more flourishing or
