MYRIADS OF FUR SEALS.
Sporting In the Water About Cape Fla
tery-The Indians in GIee.

Port Townsend Leader.
Chief Peter. Pilot Sam. Allabush,
Quartsie ard other Neah bay Indians
arrived here yesterday, TO get their
schooners ready for the sealing season.
The schooners Lottie, Swan and Mist are
in Scow bay, where they have been all
winter AS soon as the Indians can clean
the vessels and paint their bottoms with
copper paint, they will be ready to start,
These Indians say that fur seals have
not been so plenty for many years as this
season and they are in Fuca Strait in
myriads. An Indian killed fifteen in
ClalIam bay in one day, all pups or yearl-
ings. OFF Pisht are large ones, and twenty
three were killed by one of the schooners
last week. These Indians say that the
very mild winter We have had brings in
these seals in myriads.
This report is corroborated by masters
of coasters, tug boats and sealing schoon-
ers One of these Indians shot two fur
seals on Waadda island reef. The weather
has been so windy and the sea so rough at
the Cape, that the Indians have not dared
to go out ON the rough water TO attack the
seals, but Chief Peter thinks the wind has
nearly blown itself out and in another
month ii will be smoother. They are in
high spirits over the prospect of good
spring catch,

rRUITLEss REVOLT IN oPoRro.
Attempted Revolution Quickly Crushed
Out by Government Troops.


OPoRro, Jan. 3l.-Three regiments of in
fantry. comprising portion of the gar
rison, openly reyolted today. Shortly after
the beginning of the uprising the insur-
gent troops and a portion OF the Fiscal
guards seized the city hall and proposed to
there and then declare republic. A
strong body of loyal troops laid seige to
the building, and after a bombardment. a
spirited charge settled the insurgents. The
loss on both sides, as far as known, was
slight. The insurgents will be tried by
court-martial, and in all probability the
ringleaders will be shot.
Oporto this evening Is a city of rejoicing.
Storekeepers have thrown down the barri-
cades from their windows and doors, and
everybody is congratulating everybody
else that the insurgent outbreak is not as
serious as was expected.
Insurgents to the number of 400 assem-
bled at o'clock this morning, and, with
much cheering, paraded the principal
streets. Thew made attempts to seize the
prefecture of police and central telegraph
office. Their plans, however, were frus-
trated by the municipal guard. The gen.
eral i'll command summoned the loyal
troops, when the few civilians supporting
the rebels dispersed. The latter then pro-
ceeded TO the Hotel del Vile, fortifying
the structure to the best of their ability.
but, lacking ammunition. speedily sub
mitted in response to artillery lombard
ment.
Six or seven officers of an inferior grade
took part in the revolt, which was of a
distinctly Republican character. The
civilian leader in the revolt was lawyer
named Alves Veigar. Niegar formed a
republican directory, consisting of Senior
Freitas, judge of the court; Soures, Pro-
fessor Silva and the brothers Leite None

when the town hall was captured.
Three soldiers and four civilians, in
Guiding woman, were killed during the
fight, and thirty-six soldiers and ten
civilians wounded. Under directions of
the authorities the offices and printing
rooms of all republican journals were
raided and all documents found in the
places were seized. Every person found
on the premises was taken into custody
and the buildings placed under charge of
the military. All banks and commercial
houses in the city have closed their doors.

CHILEAN WAR NEWS.
Insurgents in Full Control OF
Chile Archipelago.
REVOLT IN PORTUGAL ENDED.
Four Hundred Ardent Republicans Rise
In Oporto. but Government Troops
Soon Capture Them.

BUESos AYREs Jan. 3f.--War news con-
tinues to filter from Chile into this re-
public. Ii must be admitted that the IN
formation received seems to come in the
main from sources favorable to the IN
surgents and unfavorable TO the Chilean
government. Valdayia, the seaport town
of Faldivia, sixteen miles from the mouth
of the Callacalla river, is now blockaded
by war vessels of the insurgents. The IN
surgents' war ships also are blockading the
island of Chico and the Chico archipel-
ago. their ships patrolling the gulf of An
cud, thus cutting off all communication
between the island and mainland. One
rebel vessel is lying off Ancud, the capital
of the island of Chico. Insurgent marines
from that vessel have occupied Ancud.
The Chico archipelago consists of about
sixty small islands, with population of
$1,000 souls The insurgent warship which
anchored off Ancud recently, left that port
in charge of marines She had loaded and
steamed away to capture another
port, and while this vessel was absent
ship having government troops
on board appeared off Ancud.
She hoisted the British flag and tried to
land the troops she had on board. The in
and opened fire upon the government YES
sci. The latter replied with rapid fire of
guns and small arms, but after sharp en-
counter the government vessel retired and
left the town of Ancud in the hands of the
victorious insurgents.
President Balmaceda is now said to have
announced his Willingness to negotiate for
terms of peace with the rebels, who seem
TO be victorious on all sides. One stipula-
ton insisted upon by the president in the
negotiations proposed is that the port or
Valparaiso is not TO be biockaded while
parleying continues. The rebels. it is
added, insist that President Balmaceda re-
sign.
Some compromise favorable to the inter-
ests of European merchants and tnanciers
is looked forward to according TO the
latest advices. Gold closed here at 225
premium.
Further advices from Chile are to the
effect that after several skirmishes the
government troops succeeded in recaptur-
ing Pisagua. 1t is also learned that the
insurgents have occupied Taltal.

Fake Indian scare in Texa..

CHICAGO, Jan. 31.--A special from Fort
Worth. Tex, says: All day yesterday this
city was full of excitement over rumors
from little town on the Fort Worth &
Denver railroad, lying near the reservation
of the Kiowas, that 600 bucks had gone
on the warpath, sacked and burned the
town of Wellington and killed and scalped
thirty people. President Jones, of the
Fort Worth & Denver, was noti-
fed and at once placed the road
at the disposal of the people
to hurry militia and volunteers to the
scene OF the trouble. Captain McMurry,
with company of state rangers and 400
volunteers, has come from Amarillo and
Clarendon. and companies from Quanah,
Vernin, Bowie and other points, have
pushed to the front. The Forth Worth
Fencibles and 400 men are ready to start
when word is received. The whole affair
is believed to be conspiracy on the part
of few men to scare the people of Wei
lington out of the town, and move the
county seat to the center of the county
Governor Hogg has ordered an investi-
CATION.

Not Likely That This Session of Con-
gress Will DO ANYTHING.

WASHINGTON Cry, Jan. 81 Especial. l.
The Pacific railroad companies are work
ing diligently for acceptance of the scheme
to refund their debt to the government.
payable in fifty and 100 years. A careful
review of the situation leads to the belief
that nothing will be done in the premises
by the present Congress. OF the members
oftheHouse committee on Pacific railroads,
seven are in favor of the funding scheme,
hve are opposed TO it, and one is on the
fence. Mr.. Dalzell OF Pennsylvania. chair
man of the committee. does not favor the
refunding plan, and his influence, by vir-
tue of his position, will go a long way.
Another important factor in the case is
the position of Speaker Reed, who believes
the present session. He looks at the
matter from the standpoint of
political leader, and sees in it no
advantage for his party, being at the same
time opposed to the refunding. Mr. Dali
zell did not sign the majority report at the
last session. Between him and Mr.. Reed
ii is reasonably safe TO say that nothing
will he done, and the matter will be left
precisely where it now is.
At the same time Senator Mcconnell
will do all in his power 10 push the bill in
troduced by him some time ago, pro-
viding for forfeiture to the government
of the subsidized railroads. He insists
that either the railroads should be for
feited or the debts should be paid accord
ing to the original contracts 1t is not
likely, however, that he will be able TO
secure any action upon his bill Barely a
month remains before final adjournment
of the Fifty-tirst congress, and in the rush
and chaos of the closing DAYS there will
he small opportunity for it.

ANOTHER ADJOURNMENT TAKEN.
Both Houses of the Legislature Meet
and Part.

OLYMPIA, Jan. 3l.-fSpecial. The little
snarl the legislature fell into by adjourn
ment until Monday was Strengthened out
today by formal action OF Speaker Shaw
and President Wilson, in calling to order
their respective branches at 10 a. m.
Twenty-eight members were present in
the House and four in the Senate. Both
bodies adjourned until Monday, the House
until 80 and the Senate until . The
next time it is desired to adjourn from
Thursday over Sunday, possible constitu-
tional complications will be obviated by
the passage of concurrent resolution
By such action the houses can take recess
for any length of time within the sixty
days limit.
Members are conspicuous by their alb
sence tonight. The vast amount of COM
nittee work to be done during recess has
evanesced with many imaginary things
that are TO be, but never are. No work Of
moment has been done by any committee
except the railroad committee, and that
got tired very soon after settling the ques-
ton of passenger fares.
In other sessions it has been noticeable
that the time for heavy committee work
was in the first days of the week, and it is
not surprising that the experiment of a
recess was an utter failure. Members will
return tomorrow night and Monday
morning.

place tonight. The meeting will be at a
dinner to be given by State senator Brown.
The dinner will be private one, and is to
be given in the famous library
of the Stewart mansion, where the
clubs home now is. Colonel Brown
decided to have dinner that
would bring these Democratic leaders to-

oval table of the library will comfortably

plates will be laid for that number.
Colonel Brown will preside. Gov

Governor Owens will occupy the place at
his left. The position of ex-President
Cleveland will be at the opposite end OF
the table, facing the host. This seat has
been agreed upon because Mr.. Cleveland
is now private citizen. No toast has been
provided and no set speeches are intended.
Governor Hill will review the Twenty
second regiment at its armory
this evening, but this is not to interfere
with his presence at the Manhatten club,

SPOKANE FAILS, Ian. 3i.-fSpecial. The
Clarke etcalfe investigating committee
finished its work in Spokane this morning
Not a syllable of evidence against the
character of either Metcalfe or Clarke has
been introduced Clarke has escaped any
attack for the simple reason that the
friends of Metcalfe have not believed that
il was necessary to attack him.
Members of the committee have been
privately assured by well-known Republic
cans of this city that Clarke's methods In
politics were known TO be bad, and that
nobody had any doubt that he used money
improperly in conducting his campaigns,
vet none of these men has wanted to testify
thus in public. In fact they have, as
rule. insisted that they would decline TO
testify If they we're pressed for their
opinion of Clarke. Some Republicans
have appeared for Clarke, but the most of
them were men who secretly or openly
sympathized with Calkins, or had been in
the past indebted TO Clarke for political
services. They said he was a political
angel. of course.
MetcaIfe's friends did not seem at all
anxious to injure Clarke. They were APP
parcntly satisfied with producing evidence
that Metcalfe had O high reputation for
truth and honesty, and so long as no at
tack was made on him, they were not pro-
yoked to counter against Clarke. Thus the
committees proceedings were rs sweet as
tally factory, all the vinegar present be-
ing in sugar.
The only break in the monotonous char
acter of the proceedings was furnished by
Judge Houghton, the gentleman who
wnked so felicitously at Metcalfe in the
Olympia hotel. He came unsolicited, and
said he wanted to explain his connection
with the ''purty mess" He told a long
story and really succeeded in wind
ing himself up in a beautiful ball of
yarn. Although he denied all knowledge
of the use of money by anybody at olym-
pia he admitted that he tried 10 bride Met
calfe 10 vote for Calkins by promising him
federal offices, and he also admitted that
he was trying to win votes for calkins by
trading off votes for the agricultural col
lcge. lie said he considered this kind of
work perfectly proper from a political
standpoint, although there mightbe points
from which it would be objectionable.
Everybody is laughing at the Judge to-
night. He did not hurt Metcalfe and he
did not help Clarke, but he did put himself
into rather deep hole.

CHICAGO, Jan. 3l--The commissioners
of the Western Traffic Association today
considered the proposition to divide the
territory of the Western Passenger Asso-
citation so as to conine Chairman Finley's
jurisdiction to the territory east of the
Missouri river, and to merge that part of
it west of the river into the Trans-Missouri
Association. At the close of the morning
session Chairman Walker said no conclu-
sion had been reached, but he thought the
question would be settled soon.
The commissioners have made a lengthy
report to President Miller, of the advisory
board. 1t divides the territory as follows
The Western freight division, under Com
missioner Midgely includes Minnesota
Wisconsin, the peninsula of Michigan,
Iowa, Illinois, west OF the Illinois Central
& Vandalia; Missouri, north of the St
the Missouri; and business between Kan
sas City and these points. Bust
ness between points on the Mis-
souri, river belongs to the TRANSMITS
souri, division. The Southwestern rail
way and steamship division, under
Commissioner Faithorn, includes all terri
tory south of the Western traffic and a
line between Mincoyt and Fort Smith,
and all business to or from the Southern
Pacific, Mexico or Rio Grande crossing
The transcontinental division, under Com
missioner Vining, includes all territory
west of the meridian of Harrison, Utah.
the Great Northern road, the Central Pa
cific and the eastern line of Nevada. The
trans Missouri territory under Commits
sioner Smith includes all territory left out
in the above and west ofthe Missouri river
1t is recommended that names of divisions
be changed respectively TO Lake, Gulf,
Trans Missouri and Transcontinental.
The board recommends that when the
Western Passenger association dissolves
the Western passenger divisions have the
same boundaries as the Western freight di-
visions, and that Commissioner Winning
have charge of the trans-Missouri passen-
ger traffic. There is likely to be an objec-
ton to this by the Northwestern. No
move has yet been made to dissolve the
