Why the Itata Was Surrendered

WASHINGTON, June 4.-The navy de-
partment received official information to-
night of the peaceful surrender of the
Chilian insurgent steamer Itata at
Tquique to-day. This information was
contained i'll dispatch from Acting Rear
Admiral McCann, received by Secretary
Tracy several hours after the regular time
for closing the department.. The dis
patch came in cipher, and it took about
three hours to translate it, and even then
there were several instances in which its
contents had not been fully interpreted
In effect, the dispatch stated that the
Itata had arrived at Iquique from loco
plla last night and was placed at the
he disposition of Admiral Mccain this
morning. She had on board, the dis
patch says, 5000 rifles and also
the ammunition taken from the
schooner Robert & Minnil off
the port of San Diego, Cal. She had no
other munitions of war than those be-
longing to the ship and had transferred
nothing to tue Esmeralda, with whom
sho communicated when off Acapulco,
Mexico. After communicating with this
lnsrrgent cruiser, she went to Tocapilla
Admiral McCann says the Charleston
arrived to-day and the Pensacola was ex
pected before to morrow. The Itata will
be delivered to the United States court
at San Diego, and proceedings against
her for violation of the laws will be- re-
sumed at the point where they were in.
terrupted by tue unlawful departure of
the steamer, and the responsible parties

night
TIE CHAIN or CIRCUMSTANCES
that has led mp to the surrender to the
United States of the Itata to-day. The
secretary said the desire for the surren-
der came from the leader of the insurgent
party at Iqrliqne. Shortly after the ves-
sci had finally escaped from the custody
of the marshal at San Diego, the govern
ment was informed by these leaders that
they disapproved the action of the Off
GERS Of the vessel, and offered, through
Admiral Mccain, t. peacefully surren-
der her as soon as she arrived in Chilian
waters. These offers were then commu
nicated to the department at Washing.
ton and in due time were accepted by
this government without, however,
implying any recognition on the part of
the United States of the insurgents as
belligerents. A proposition for a peace
full surrender was pending at the time
the Charleston, which was in
pursuit of the Itata, was
at Acapulco, replenishing her
diminished coal supply. AS soon as the
offer was accepted, a telegram authnriz-
ing to cease the chase was sent to Capt.
Remy of the Charleston, but he had al
ready sailed when the telegram reached
Acapulco. The fact of the acceptance of
the offers to surrender the Itata on her
arrival i'll Chilian waters was therefore
communicated to Admiral Mccain who
was therefore prepared to receive the
Itata ON her arrival. Secretary Tracy
said the Itata would be sent up coast to
San Diego to answer the charges against
her in the court.

New ORLEANS, La, june 1O.-A case

time, and the defense about exhausted it.
self i'll putting the trial back. The case of
McCrystal WAS taken up first, and at four
O'Clock the jury raised. In few min
utes it returned into the court with a
verdict of guilty as charged. The rul-
ing of Judge Baker, refusing to admit
the confession of McCrystal, saves
OMalley in this case, the only case con-
Meeting him directly with the bribery
cases. The court will now be forced to
try him upon one of the other charges,
if at all, and thoy are all cases of several
years ago. McCrystal was tried for
murder several years ago and was ac-
quilted, O'Malley helping him out.
Since then he has been O'Malley's faith
full lieutenant. McCrystal will to-mor-
row be tried upon another charge of
bribery, in connection with John Cooney,
another of O'Malley's men. One of the
facts much commented upon in connec-
tion with the bribery cases, is that
Adams, formerly O'Malley's partner, has
not appeared in any of the cases, even
neglecting to come us witness in re.

Decline of Six Points in tho Condition
of Cotton During August.
The September report of the Department
or Agriculture marks u reduction I'm the
condition OF cotton during the last six
months of six points-from $50 to S2.7.
August is a critical period in the growth OF
the cotton plant. and sixteen times I'm
twenty years has deterioration been ndi-
Gated by the returns OF Sept. 1. In the
four exceptional years the August averages
were relatively low, and n decline has oc-
Cured during the previous month. The
cause of the present reduction on the At
lantic coast has been an excess OF rainfall,
causing overgrowth OF the plant and
diminishing the tendency to fruitage.

Mr.. Wanamaker Thinks 1t Calls for Re
duced Charges, Etc.
Three of the subjects which the POST
master General will discuss in his
Forthcoming ANNUAL report are 1-cent
postage, free delivery in smell towns,
and postal telegraphy. Upon the
first subject the Postmaster Gen
cral will refer to the large number OF petit
tions that he has received during the past
year asking for the establishment OF the
1-cent rate. Mr. Wanamaker will not rec
ommend such a change in the postal laws,
but will lay all the facts in his possession
before Congress for that body to act upon.
He will say that 1-cent postage would be
good thing and should be brought about as
early as possible, but he Is convinced that
its Inauguration would necessitate the en-
ployment OF much larger force of men,
the increase in the size of postal cars and
the enlargement OF the postoffices, among
other things. Whether the disadvantage
growing out of decreased postage rate
would not more than Offset the conveniences
which that rate would induce is matter
which will be left to Congress to determine.
In that part of the report which will treat
of the extension of free delivery TO small
towns Mr.. Wanamaker will speak very posi-
lively. He expects to show that the recent
extension OF that system on its present
limited scale has paid for itself. From that
he will argue I'm substance that, as it is a
good and inexpensive convenience, the
country ought to have more of it,
