THE SLEEPING SEA.

Far away fair ships are sailing ~
Far, and faint, and dim, =
CLEANS of white, or glints of light,
On the vague horizons rim.
And the ocean, only varied
Where the breakers cry "
From the strand of 81 canning sand,
Stretches level to the sky. ..
'Cloudless azure heavens bending
Der the sleeping sea-
Pulsing heat about our feet
Where can peril be?
Can it be that tempests gather,
Strong winds lash the deep?
Tossed in pain the tall ships strain,
N1addened pillows shoreward leap?
Trust the lion. trust the serpent,
When he sleeping lies,
Trust thy hands to flaming brands
Trust not tickle seas and skies.

Land in LITIGATION,

CHICAGO, May 15.-Between "a, 100000
and $5,O0O,0O0 worth of land on the lake
shore between 18th and 10Th streets Is
involved in litigation by the bill filed
in the Superior court at noon to-day.
Emily A. Harrington of Geneva, ILL.,, is
the complainant and the Illinois Central
railroad company is the corporation with
which accounting is sought. Mrs. Her
riugton is the widow of Augustus Her
rington, capt. alist and one time general
solicitor of the Northwestern company.
His father originally entered a quarter
section of which this land is a part and
Justice Harrington took the title from
him. In 1856 he decided the land to the
Illinois Central, but through some over
sight Mrs. bennington neglected to Join
in the transfer. She claims therefore
that she never released dover and her
widows interest and rentals since 1883.
She says the rental value is 100000 per
annnm.

The importation of Men Into the Coke
Region is Increasing Daily.
ScoTTDALE, Pa, May 19.-Operators
are making a most determined effort to
force, at the miners convention to-mor-
row, to vote to abandon the strike, while
the labor leaders, on the other hand,
have been among the men and say they
are practically unanimous in their desire
to continue out. The Prick and Nc
Clure companies have started the Red
stone, Youngstown, Hawkeye Valley and
Oliphant plants with a few new men and
say they will start five other plants this
week. Carloads of men are coming into
the region and it is doubtful if the stlik-
ers can stand the pressure much longer.
They are suffering for the necessities of
life and hundreds have no roof to call
their own. If the men do not vote to 20
back tomorrow, it will be because they
were over-persuaded by the leaders or
because the Independent operators or
some powerful labor organization
pledges some greatly needed financial
support.

Would Soon Depopulate Italy,

WASHINGTON, May 18.-That the
italian government is e~ndeavoring to
check the tide of immigration to the
United States is shown by the issuance
of a circular by the italian minister of
the interior department to the projects
of the kingdom for the restriction of
such immigration so far as minors are
concerned. The copy of this circular
which was received at the treasury de-
partment shows that minors will not be
allowed to leave the kingdom when not
accompanied by relatives or guardian
except on the production of the proper
shipping articles and such docu-
ments will be required also
in case minor is accompanied
by relative or guardian who can neither
write nor read. Minors IS years of e
will not be allowed to immigrate except
on specific authority by the minister of
war.

A Statement From Tracy.

B1NGHAMToN, N. Y, May 12.-Secre-
tary of Navy Tracy is in this city on pr1-
vate business. In an interview tonight
he stated several important facts con-
corning the Itata incident, which have
heretofore been matters of speculation.
The secretary stated definitely that the
Charleston has orders to capture the
Itata wherever she may be found upon
high seas. This includes all waters out
side of the three mile limit or ports of
foreign countries. He did not antici-
pate a fight, but IN case of resistance
the United States cruiser would
carry out her rights at
all hazards. He was not at
liberty to state the exact text
of the cipher dispatch sent to the
Charleston, neither would be say de-
fnitely if the cruiser San francisco, now
in Gillian waters, had been ordered to
intercept the Itata. The San Francisco,
he said, classed with the cruisers Balti-
more and Philadelphia and was fully
able to hold her own with the
Esmeralda The United States
had maintained a strictly, nuetral
position in refusing TO supply arms to the
insurgents, and as the Itata had violated
every rule of international law in break
ing away from the custody of our govern
ment after seizure, she would have to
take the consequences. The secretary did
not anticipate serious trouble, but
thought the matter would soon be settled
peacably and with honor to the United
States.

A Silver Question.

WASHINGTON, May 18.-An interesting
question has arisen at the treasury de-
partment in connection with the present
silver law which authorized the secretary
of the treasury to purchase 4,500,O00
ounces of silver each month and to issue
treasury notes thereon. Treasury notes
thus far issued in bullion purchased I'M
der the act aggregate 43,552,O00. The
department coins two million standard
silver dollars. and the law says that any
gain or seignorge arising from such
coinage sha l be accounted for and paid
into the treasury. Under this law the
government has already gained by seig-
norage $2,545,000. The question that
now confronts the secretary is whether or
not he can, under any circumstances,
issue silver certificates against this
amount,

Relating to Timber Reservations.


WASHINGTON, May 19.-A circular let
ter of instructions to special agents, re-
lating to timber reservations, was to-day
promulgated from the general land Office.
After quoting section "a of the general
land act of March 3, 1891, the circular
says: To carry into effect the said pro-
visions it becomes important to reserve
all public lands bearing forests, or GOV
cred with timber or underground, on
which the timber is not absolutely re-
quired for the legitimate use and neces-
sites of residents of the state or terrific
ry in which the lands are situated, or for
the promotion, settlement or develop
ment of the natural Of
the section of the state
or territory in the immediate
vicinity of the particular lands in ques-
ton. In so doing its first Importance is
to reserve all public lands in mountain
u and other regions which are covered
with timber OF underground at the head
waters of the rivers and along banks of
the streams, creeks and r~avines, where
such timber or underground is the means
provided by nature to absorb and
check the mountain torrents and to
prevent sudden and rapid melting of the
winters snow and resultant inundation
in the valleys below which destroy agri-
cultural and pasturage interests of the
communities and settlements in the
lower portions of the country. For the
purpose of securing the necessary data
upon which to base the recommendations
for such forest reservations the commits
sioner gives full and explicit instruc-
tiOns.

Cry OF MEXICO, May 1S.-The war de.

Acapulco which says there is a probable
ity of a fight between the Charleston and
Esmeralda. The Itata has not yet been
sighted and unless she has been Gap
tured by some other United States
cruiser, is probably off Central Amer
lea by this time, with fuel furnished by
the Esmeralda. Gen. Pedro Hinojesa,
secretary of war, said Monday morning
that Mexico only insists that her neu-
trality be respected and she will not in
~terfere with the Esmeralda beyond refus-
ing to sell her coal or arms. An officer
of the Esmeralda told your correspond

sci would try and get coal here, but, if it
was refused, she could get it elsewhere
within a few hours. He said: "We are
not afraid of a conflict with the Charles

Terrible Fire in Muskepon

MUSHROOM, Mich, May 18.-A fire
started this evening $50 o'clock in the
Longakell hotel barns, just off Pine
street, from some unknown cause and
aided by a strong wind swept ten blocks
up Pine street, one of the chief, business
streets of the city. Then by a sudden
shift in the wind the flames we're driven
toward Terrace avenue, one of the
finest residence streets, where it is
now burning with undated fury
near the Evergreen cemetery in the
southern edge of the city. Twenty
two blocks devastated as if
swept by a hurricane fire.
A 100000 court house was Quilted but
its public documents we're saved. The
prisoners in the county Jail which &C.
cupied the basement of the court house
were liberated. Several COWS and horses
we're burned and a little child, who was
sleeping in Launkowell hotel barns
where the fire started, is missing. The
loss cannot be accurately stated at this
hour but will probably reach half a
million. By 9 o'clock the fire
reached the southern destrict of
the city where there is more space
between the houses and the fremen
succeeded in considerably reducing the
further progress of the flames. AS the
high buildings burned there was great
danger from fire brands and the firemen
were obliged to continually shift posi-
tons. Two Grand Rapids engines were
put to work as soon as they arrived.
Tonight twenty blocks of business
houses and dwellings are in smoldering
ruins. The number of dwellings burned
may safely be put at $50. A conser-
vative estimate of the loss is $780,
600. The total insurance is not obtain
able. Many burned places have
no insurance. Hundreds of families
were thrust upon their friends for &C.
commodations. The night scene reminds
one Of the "Last Days Of Pompeii." Fine
dwellings but recently completed are
gone, among them Jos. Hutchinson's, DR..
