LIVERPOOL, Aug. 20,-John Conway,
the steamship fireman who was convict
ed of murder and sentenced to death for
killing the boy Nicholas Martin, whose
body was found May 9thlast floating in
sailors bag in the harbor here, was
hanged this morning. There was n SEN
sational scene on the scafioId. As Berry,
the hangman was drawing the black cap
over Conwav's head the latter shouted:
Hold on, want to say something
To this request Berry replied;
"You cant speak now" and was
about to proceed with tn" execution
when the priest who was IN attendance
upon the criminal hastily interposed,
pushed the hnugman ON one side ana
hcld Conways hand while the condemned
man in broken tones asked forgiveness
ror his sins. Only when the unfortunate
wretch was done speaking and when the
priest had replied to his request tor Tor
.ivcncss did the latter permit the nang
man to proceed.
This incident caused intense excitement
/ among those present at the hanging, bu
it was as nothing compared to the horn
, ble scene which was to follow.
In due course of time the drop fell ant
r Conway disappeared from view. Almos
Immediately afterwards the priest began
!, to read the confession OF the hanging
r man. In this confession Conway SAT-
n that he was intoxicated when he mur
+ dcred the boy and that his reason to
i taking the boys lie was that he had
d morbid curiosity to observe the proces
&c of dying.
o While the priest was reading Cor
, WAYS confession a peculiar sound wa
: heard from the scaffold as OF water tal
ing. A hurried investigation was mad
and to the horror of the officials the
found that the sound was caused b
al blood pouring from Conway's necl
SC The fall had been so severe that II
o criminals head had been almost tor
:. from his body.

BlsMARCk III TRIBUNE: FRIDAY, MAY is 1891,

GERS at all points between California and
Chilli where the Itata could touch, to
promptly advise the naval officers of her
movements, if she is sighted. In strange
contrast to this exhibition of zeal is the
course of the Charleston, which is in
chase of the runaway. This vessel sailed
from San Francisco early Saturday
morning, bound south. She is an eigh-
teen-knot vessel and last night she should
have been $50 miles down the coast, or
near Cape San Lucas, where the CHILEAN
insurgent war ship Esmeralda is sup
posed to be lying in wait for the Itata.
But ms cad of covering this distance,
the Charleston got about half way and
hen went to anchor over night. Later
advices show that she was last seen just
above the Mexican boundary line. Such
officers as have an opinion that they care
to express, say that the Charleston's
movements can be explained IN Two
ways: Either the department believes
the ltata is lying somewhere off the
coast OF California, or it has no intention
OF selling the vessel unless her presence
is made unpleasantly noticeable within
easy reach. The motive for such an at
tltude by our government as that iudicat-
ed by the last theory is rather limited at,
than directly stated by the officials. It
is in brief, that it might not be good
diplomacy for the United States to go
too far IN the direction of hostility to-
wards the Chilian insurgents. The
duties devolving upon a friendly govern
ment in cases such as this have never
been finally and clearly enunciated by
authorities in international law, but it
can be safely assumed that in the
operations of the United States marsh
al is selling the Itata and the Robert
and Minnie and the pursuit OF the Itata
as long as she was in United States
waters, our government has already
shown what the Geneva arbitration, in
the Alabama case, has declared to be due
diligence. The policy of our govern
ment in this matter will probably soon
be made clear by the movements of the
Charleston and if she should content
herself with a thorough search of the
American waters and return to port in
a day or two it may be that the govern
ment will rest satisfied.

On His Way t, Denver to be Indicted for
Poisoning Josephine Barnabv.
BOSTON, May 12.--The Globe will say
tomorrow: "By order of the Colorado
authorities, DR.. T. Thatcher Graves is
tacitly under arrest for the murder of
Josephine A. Barnaby. Through adroit
detective work necessary evidence to in
sure Indictment has been secured, and
DR.. Graves is now bound west-not for
the purpose of giving testimony before
the grand jury, but to be within the juris-
diction of Colorado, where he will be for
mally indicted on Tuesday next, if the
evidence obtained and now in the hands
of States Attorney Stevens, of Denver, is
to be believed. DR.. Graves has con-
fassed sending a mysterious bottle
fessed to writing an inscription
upon it. He asserts that the bottle o n
tanned pure whiskey when it was mailed
in Boston, aud that any poison therein
contained must have been added after
the package left his possession. This
statement was made to representatives
of the Barnaby family in Providence.
Additional evidence tending to
show that D.. Graves completely is
of great amount and it can
be stated that any attempt on his part to
avoid entrance to Colorado will result in
a formal arrest by Detective Hanscom
wherever remonstance may be made.
This arrest will be made if necessary up
on order Of the authorities of Denver

1t Is a Question of Right.

WASHINGTON, May 9.-The question of
the right of the United States to take the
Itata on the high seas is not altogether
settled. The state department people
have searched their authorities and have
scrutiniZed the facts in the case and are
inclined to doubt the right. The whole
question arises from the dispute as to the
character of the vessel. We're she a pi-
rate, a ship in the service of an enemy to
this country or a vessel of American reg
lister engaged in acts in violation of treaty
stipulations, the case would be a simple
N But she is merely a CHILEAN vessel
engaged in the transportation Of a sus-
pected cargo, a cargo that may be CONTRA
band in the light of the treaty. and there
is a very grave risk involved. No one
doubts the right of the United States to
arrest the vessel in Jul own waters, for
the purpose of examination, and her de-
tention Tuesday afternoon was in accord
ance with this belief, but now that she
has landed the deputy marshal and sailed
along on her business, she may prove a
hornet that will sting in after years. The
dispatches from Chill this morning
throw a peculiar side light on the
affair, being to the effect that
President Balmaceda has directed the
suspension of all paper payments to the
government. In future, he proclaims.
during the present emergency, payments
of revenue and othe dues to the govern
ment must be made in silver. A naval
officer to-day pointed out the fact that
this meant a good deal and might in
dictate a certain amount of shrewd pre-
caution on the part of Balmaceda, who is
just as likely as not preparing for alb
dication. Such things have happened
often enough before in South American
revolutions to make tie theory entirely
probable. Such an act will, of course,
end the wal in favor of the insurgents.
In the matter of international law
involved, it would seem as though
the state department is not entire
ly in accord with the rest of the
administration, for both Attorney Gen
eral Miller and Secretary Tracy lean to
the belief that the vessel Itata is legiti-
mate prey. A report has come from San
Francisco to the effect that Richard
Irumbull, q member of the Chilian gov
eminent has been arrested there. No
knowledge Of such an act has been re-
ceived at the department of Justice. It
is stated there that it would be an easy
matter for anyone to cause the arrest OF
Trumbull on a charge of violating the
neutrality laws. The marshal is bound
to recognize an order to this effect con-
tanned in the information or complaint
sworn to by an American citizen. In
case there is a mistake or false arrest,
there is redress only in the form of a suit
at law against the informant. The mar
shal is not responsible.

The Steamer at San Diego, Which
Secretary Blaine Gave Or
ders to Sieze,
Quietly Steamed Out of the Harbor,
With the United States Mar
shall Aboard,
But He Was Put Ashore at Il
Point Eight Miles From
the City.
The Vessel is a Privateer in the
Service of the Gillian
Rebels.
They Sent Him Ashore,

SAN Francisco, May S.-A Chroni-
cles special from San Diego says: When
the Chilian transport Etata weighed her
anchor last evening and commenced to
steam rapidly down the channel, it was
supposed the deputy United States
marshal who had been put aboard to
hold her would either be compelled to go
with her to her destination, swim ashore
or cast adrift upon the desert Coronado
Islands, several miles off the coast. He
arrived in the city this morning. how
ever, the Gillian captain having put him
ashore at the ballast point, eight miles
from town and he made his way in as
best he might. His statement makes
sensational reading and from circum-
stances surrounding the case the Etata is
nothing more or less than a privateer in
the service of the Gillian rebels.
THE CHARLESTON WILL PURSUE.
SAN Francisco, May THE Alta
California has positive information that
the United States steamer Charleston
will sail for San Diego tomorrow IN
pursuit of the Chilian ship Etata. Secre-
tary Tracy telegraphed special orders
to-day, and the Charleston left
Mare Island to-day and anchored
off San Francisco instead of
taking her usual anchorage. She went
behind Goat Island out of sight. Her
ostensible purpose in coming down is to
go outside and try her guns. The officers
and men have been ordered to be on
board at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning.
SAN Francisco, May 1.-THE Chroni-
Gle states it has information that gives
ground for the statement that the
steamer seen lowering around the en-
trance to San Diego is the armed tran
sport Imperiale. She left Valparaiso to
intercept the Etata on her return voy-
age. The Imperiale is a vessel of 1890
tons and is said to be capable of steam
ing sixteen miles per hour. Senior Cas-
sanova, former CHILEAN consul said yes
terday: "It will be found that British
money is the mainstay of insurgents
against our government. The British
want to obtain control of the nitrate de-
posits, and president Balmaceda wishes
them to be worked for the benefit of the
Gillian government"

little insurance.
