Columbus Smith, Esq, and ". l. Shell

it is understood, decided to build up

the railroad bridge down to Mr. Smiths
line, and it is likely that the b. c2!; will

men interested in the tract bounded on the
west by Main street and on the north by
Merchants Row of obtaining permission
to close up the driveway near the Main
street corner, so that either or both Mr..
Smith and Mr.. Buttolph will have more

arranged from near the railroad bridge

Fault is found with the firemen for
placing the steamer where they did.
They say that when the steamer was
brought out smoke and flame were pour
ing out of the back side OF the smith

to them suicidal to think of taking the
steamer down to the creek at that point.

that appeared reasonably safe, was that

ENGLAND AFTER GOLD.

That Country Taking Considerable of the
Precious Metal from New York.
r. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review of trade
says:
The struggle to sustain Russian securities
against the disfavor of the RothschfldS, the
demand for gold by German bankers, and
the threatened withdrawal of Russian gold
from deposits in England, France, and Ger
many account for much of the unusual
movement of specie which has been in pro-
gress. The advance of q of l per cent. at
once in the rate charged by the Bank OF
England is rightly regarded as notification
that England means to fortify herself
in this great struggle by drawing gold from
New York. May starts off with the
great plunge in speculative prices
which has for some weeks been
days, while corn has declined 81 cents in
sympathy, and many spectators have suf-
fered. An element OF great strength is the
accommodating evidence that the wheat pros
pect at the West is remarkably good. After
such high prices as have been realized farm
ers are widely inclined to put in greater
acreage of wheat, oats, and corn, especially
as the foreign advices foreshadow
a larger demand for wheat. With
such an agricultural outlook the demand
for manufactured products Of all kinds is
likely to improve and thus the great indus
tries will be helped Collections are on the
whole somewhat improved, but there is yet
much complaint, The business failures Oc-
curing throughout the country during the
last seven days numbered PAP, as compared
with 255 last week. For the corresponding
week of last year the figures were 2O9.

Fate of a Museum Freak.

At Syracuse, N. Y, Pearl Arnold, known
on the stage as "Pearl Arundel" is suffer-
ing from the effects Of her career as a mu-
scum freak. She was troubled with vOmit-
ing and terrible palms. and the woman can
retain no solid food. Injections of NOR
phine are given five times daily. She has
vomited many nails and tacks that she
swallowed in her career in the museum.
The doctor thinks that if the patients con-
stitution holds out long enough to allow the
nails and lacks to become encysted or pass
off she may recover, but she has become so
emaciated that this is hardly thought
probable.

LET THE LYNCHERs GO.
New Orleans Mob Is Justified by the !
Grand jury.


After six weeks investigation the New
Orleans grand jury completed its labors in
the Hennessy case and the killing of Italians
at the parish prison, and presented it's re-
port. It in effect justifes the lynching of
the Italian assassins in the jail by declar-
ing that from the number of people en-
gagged and from the circumstances of the
case the jury is not warranted in finding
indictments against any of those taking
part in the affair The report arraigns
the corruption that entered into the
trial of Chief Hennessy's slayers and
resulted in their acQuittal In effect
It declares that they escaped pun
ishment through the votes of a bought
jury. Six of the arch conspiratOrs in the
Jury fixing business are indicted. d.
O'Malley. the detective, is the chief Of
these. The conclusion Of the grand jurors
on the launching is given in these words:
HThe magnitude Of this affair makes it a
difficult task to fix the guilt upon any num-
Der of the participants. In fact, the act
seemed to involve the entire people Of the
parish, so open is their sympathy and eX-
tended their connection with the affair In
view of these consideration the thorough
examination of the subject has failed to
disclose the necessary facts to justify this
Jury in presenting indictments"

ly fasten on to her and tow her back to
San Diego
The actual status of the Itata is not
that of pirate, but an authorized ship
upon the seas. She has no flag, no
clearance, no charter. Any ship of any
nation can seize her, and if she resists
she becomes at once pirate.
The position in which the United
States is placed by the escaping of the
Itata is peculiar one, bearing in mind
the fOrcible argument which Mr.. Evarts
and other able representatives of the
United States laid before the tribunal at
Geneva in respect to the escape of the
"29, " afterward the rebel cruiser Alaba-
ma, upon which arguments Great Britain
was mulcted in heavy damages. In that
case it will be remembered the suspected
vessel got away before the British au-
thOrities had received sufficient in
formation, as they claimed, to war
rant them in Selling her. In the
case of the Itata the vessel was abSO-
lutelY in the possession CT the United
States Marshal, and the responsibility
for her escape can not be eYaded. 1t
may be a question between the Depart
ment of Justice and the United States
Marshal as to whether proper precau-
tiOns were taken to insure the detenslon
of the vessel, but as between the United
States and the recognized Gillian Gov
eminent should Balmaceda be successful
in the internecine warfare now in pro-
gress, there can be no manner Of dispute
as to the complete liability Of the United
States Government for whatever dam
ages the Itata uncaptured may be able
to infict. There is quite feveriSh air
of expectancy round the Navy Depart
ment as to the Developments of the in
cident, and many of the officers on shore
are envying the opportunities which the
Charleston and other vessels are likely
to have of brisk service afoat
The question of the right of the United
States to take the Itata on the high seas
is not altogether settled. The State De-
partment 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 q dispute as to the character
of the vessel. We're she pirate,
ship in the service of an
enemy to this country, and vessel
of American register engaged in acts
in violation Of treaty stipulations, the
case would be simple one. But she is
merely Gillian vessel, engaged in the
Transportation of a suspected cargo, a
cargo that may possibly be contraband
in the light of the treaty, and there is
a very great risk involved. No one
doubts the right Of the United States to
arrest the vessel in our waters for the
purpose of examination, and her deten-
ton was in accordance with this belief.
But now that she has landed the deputy
marshal and sailed along on her business
she may prove hornet that will sting
in after years.
In the matter of the international law
involved it would seem as though the
State Department is not in entire accord
with the rest of the administration, for
both Attorney General Miller and Secre-
tary Tracy lean to the belief that the
vessel Itata is legitimate prey.

Destructive forest fires are raging near
Heating Summit, Pa. The entire lumber
region is badly damaged. While fighting
the fire a work train was surrounded by
flames The engine and cars were destroyed,
and seventy men narrowly escaped with
their lives. twenty-five or thirty men are
reported seriously, if not fatally, burned.
The town presents a scene Of great
suffering. superintendent Badger OF the
Sinnemahoning Valley Railroad, and
three or four others are missing, and are
thought to have persisted in the fire. 1t is
estimated that 3O,OOO,OOO feet of logs and
10000 cords OF bark, belonging to Goodyear
Bros, have been destroyed besides ten
miles of tram railroad. Telephone connec-
ton is cut off. The sky is lighted up IN all
directions, and the smoke is so dense that
people can scarcely breathe. The town OF
Curwensville, with 1000 population, is
threatened with destruction.

PURSUING THE ITATA.
CHANCE FOR THE u. s. CRUISER
CHARLESTON TO SHINE.

She Is Said to Be HOtly Chasing the
CHILEAN Privateer-Q Questions in Regard
to Her Possible Capture Not Definitely
Settled.
A dispatch from Washington says:
The most pressing thing in state affairs
now is the escape of the Itata. The pos
sibility that this can result in any seri-
Gus destruction of our relations with
Chill is remote, but the ever present
specter of Indemnity" is what scares
the State Department.. "Indemnity"
has become a hair-raising word in state
circles. The Italians started it and the
fear that Chill may also hoist an emblem
with indemnity emblazoned on it causes
uneasineSs. Ever since we made Great
Britain pay SIS, 900, 900 for permitting
the Alabama to escape we have kept q
weather eye keenly strained upon every
fishing smack that might be suspected
OF wanting to carry revolver to an
enemy. Hence the first business of the
administration is to recapture the Itata.
Instructions were sent to Admiral Nc
Cam, now at Valparaiso, to put to sea
with the Baltimore and Pensacola in or
der to intercept the inSurgent vessel.
Similar instructions were sent to Adj
miral Brown The last report from him
was that he had left CaIlao, Peru, with
the San Francisco. His exact wherea-
bouts along the coast is not known.
Orders have also been sent to the
Charleston, now at San Francisco, to
start in pursuit as soon as possible.
This last does not amount to much, for
the Itata has five hundred miles and
at least two days start from any vessel
that could sail from San Francisco, and
it is doubtful if the Charleston could
catch her in an even race. If the ship is
caught or intercepted it will be by one of
Admiral McCann's vessels, though if the
Charleston should catch her in one of
the Mexican ports she could undoubted-
