STILL AT SEA.

No News from the Charieston-Tnsurgents
May Surrender the Itats-
WASHINGTON. May &.-The fact that no
word was received ct the Navy Department
to-day from the Charleston is taken as an
Indication that she has gone on down the
Peruvian coast toward Callao. Respecting
the reiterated statements coming from
Paris to the effect that the insurgents have
ang to surrender the Itsta to the
United States naval authorities when she
reaches Chill. the officials of the Naval De-
partment stand mute. 1t may be stated.
however. that there have been no negotia-
tions between this government and
the Chilian insurgents upo the
subject. Inasmuch as the insur--
gents have not been recognized
by the government of the United States as
bellgersnts they have absolutely no status
that would admit of negotiating with them
by the United States government. Still 1t
is plainly evident that some kind of under
standing has been or IL expected TO be
reached which will result In the easy
transfer of the Itata to either Admiral
McCann or Admiral Brown, should she
reach Chill. This, of course, would not
take the shape of a formal agreement, but
the intimation may already have been con-
veyed to our naval officers at Iquique BY
the insurgents that such q course will be
pursued, and doubtless this has formed the
basis of the many cableRrams that have
passed between Washington and Iquique
during the last two weeks.

: MORE DEMOCRATIC LIES.
Charges Against Pension ONCE Clerks DIS
proved by an Investigation.

Charges Against Pension Office Clerks Dis
proved by NJ Investigation.
WASHINGTON, May 25.-For some days
past a rumor has been current here to the
effect that certain employees in the Pension
Office. occupying responsible positions, had
been in the habit of borrowing money
from their fellow-clerks, and. upon
payment being demanded, they not only
declined to pay the money. but threatened
the importunate creditors with dismissal
or q reduction in salary. 1t was known
that q man named Donohue had procured a
warrant for the arrest of Mr.. VIM. H.
Barker, the chief of the record division,
upon q charge growing out of q money
transaction. The warrant, however. was
never served. 1t was also stated that
money which had been collected in the
division in aid Of the widow of q clerk
named Moore. who recently died, leaving
his family in q destitute condition, had not
been paid to the widow. These and sew
eral other damaging stories lave been afloat
through the Interior Department until this
morning. when Assistant Secretary Bussey,
at the request OF First Assistant Secretary
Chandler. undertook an investigation of
the whole matter. This investigation was
concluded at noon.
Shortly afterward General Bussey was
asked for q statement as to what his inves-
tigation had developed. He said: Il went
to the Pension Office this morning at $50
o'clock, and. with Commissioner Raum. sent
for every man in the bureau who was said to
have information on the subject. Twenty
or more witnesses were examined without
finding a particle of evidence to sustain
any of the charges. 1t was conclusiyely
shown that Major Barker had provided for
his obligations; that he had never handled
q dollar of the money $3.50 collected
for Mrs. Moore, but hat the money had
been In the hands of Major Ripley
and Mr.. Landon, assistant chief of the d.
vision. and had all been paid to Mrs.
Moore. whose receipt was produced. TIE
charge that Barker had visited gambling
houses with Green b. Raum, iE., utterly
failed; not one witness ever saw either of
the men in inch a place. The evidence
was conclusive that Major Barker's d.
vision, one of the most important in the
bureau. which was greatly behind in its
work when he took charge OF it. had
been managed to the entire salts
faction of the Commissioner: that the work
of the Office was up to current, and that
he had not in any manner neglected his
duties. 1t developed that q certain person,
not in the government service. was in the
habit of loaning money to clerks in tho
bureau. charging 10 per cent. per month,
and that Donohue. the clerk who originated
the charges against Major Barker, was in
the habit Of endorsing the notes and then
using tho Office to compel payment. in TWO

LOoPHOLE FOR CRIMINALS.
Florida Election Law yiolstors May Escape
Through Destruction Of Records By Fire.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, May ga singular
result of the fire in the Mohawk Block last
Monday night is the embarrassment under
which it places the United States Court for
the Northern district of Florida. The fire
made a clean sweep of all the papers and
records of this court. Many of the papers
on file there dated back to 174O. and were
old Spanish records which can never be re-
placed. Clerk Philip Wslters says there
was not a hat full of papers saved. and
Judge Swayne. when asked how the loss
of the records would affect the proceedings
of his court. said that he and the attorney
were considering the matter, but as yet
were all at sea. He thought som papers
might be re-established. He was further
asked about the criminal cases, in
dictments. etc. He said the district attor-
ney was looking into these. AS to the
cases that might expire under the statute
OF limitation before they coaid be -ein-
stated be was uncertain. District Attorney
Stripping says that the law provides for
u emergencies. and he can make out
new papers and have them properly certi-
led 10 and proceed with the cases under
them. Clerk Walter inclines 10 the opinion
that the fire made an end to most cases.
especially the criminal ones. He was asked
about the famous Gregg election case. He
thought that one was at an end. Several
lawyers concurred In Mr.. Walters opinion
that the fire wiped out the criminal cases
in a number of instances, but where all
witnesses and facts can be secured new in
>dictments nay be found. Col. Horatio
Bisbee. ex-Congressman, doubts the resur-
rection of any criminal cases where the in
dictment was destroyed. Unless there is a
perfect copy made of an indictment found
he does not believe q case would stand.
The whole proceedings would have to be
gone over again to make a case. As there
are many cases still perding against Florida
States election laws in 1883 these opinions
are significant.

cattlemen May Cause an Indian War.

CHICAGO. May @.-Cspt. L. p. Ewers.
Indian agent on the Tongue river. arrived
IN this city to-day and had an interview
with General Miles over the situation
among the Indians that took part in the
late Indian war. Captain Ewers has just
completed q tour of the Indian camps
within a radius Of two hundred miles of
tongue River agency. and be said that the
people now to be feared were not the In
dams but the cattlemen, who want all the
land they can grab for their cattle to roam
over. and will not allow any one else to es-
tabllsh themselves. The cattlemen, the
Captain said. were the people who sttrred
mp the Indiana by stealing their lands and
taking advantage of them In every way,

bitterly of the encroachments of these

were met by . number of the other strikers

in which John Sholl was considerably
beaten about the head. After some parley-

probably await developments. Over six
hundred men are ont here. and the mines

William Hanna, the constable whom Craw-
ford gave IS to 60 down to Waveland and
serve injunction warrants on the men. has
also received an encouraging notice to re-
main away from that place. The notice
stated that as the strikers did not want to
hurt any person it would be discretion up
on his part not to come to Waveland again,
to in any way interfere with the strikers,
as it would not be permitted under any
circumstances Hanna was glad enough TO
escape from the enraged men when he was
there with Crawford. and he does not
want any more such risky business to per-
form. Crawford has acknowledg ed that
he owes the men. but he seems to be de-
termined not to pay them. The people of
Waveland have not forgotten the manner
in which Crawford treated them and how
he promised. that his road would boom the
place. and that he would build q branch to
South Waveland and one to the Shades of
Death. thus making Waveland q railroad
center. The railroad has brought poverty
to the place instead CT riches.
