A DUTIFUL PRINCE.
Wales is Always Assidious in His
Attentions
To His Mother, Which is Departure from the
Guelphs Principles-The Popularity of the
Princess Of Wales is Unabated.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch I
New YORK, May 1.-THE Herald's Lon
don correspondent cables that the Prince
of Wales is always assiduous in his atten-
tons to his mother, unlike any of his pre-
decessors of the house of Guelph. Thew
made it a principle of their lives to quarrel
with the sovereign, but the present heir to
the crown has established a new precedent
in that regard. All the stories of his diff
ferences with the Queen are sheer iuven-
tons, the mother and son being bound to-
gether by ties of the closest affection. On
Thursday when the Queen went to the
naval exhibition, the prince walked by her
side, pointing cut all the objects of interest
and answering all her questions with
promptness which left the great naval au-
thorities nothing to say. The people are
always delighted to see them together. and
If the Princess of Wales is alsoof the party.
their satisfaction is complete. During her
drives in the park this week, the princess
has fairly divided popular honors with the
Queen, and certainly she has the advantage
or beauty on her side; and as for youth, she
scarcely looks year older than when she
first landed in England. The rush to see
the princess as she passed was almost as
great as that to see the Queen.
although the former makes her ap.
pearance nearly every day Every
detail of public affairs still passes
through the Queens hands. The first
thing she did on her arrival in London this
week was to have an interview of over an
hour with Lord Salisbury, during which
no doubt, every domestic and foreign cues
ton OF Importance was touched upon This
week she returns for another drawing
room and then she will not long remain at
Windsor. Hard work will have to be done
by the Prince of Wales, and his worst
enemy cannot allege he neglects any part
of his duties.

Jimmy Wakeley MIu Back Gorbett

LSpecialto THE Observation-Disclosures Dispatch. II
New York, May n.-Jim Wakeley. the
well-known sporting man, left yesterday
afternoon for San Francisco. He intends
to bet between $1,000 and $1,000 that Jim
Corbett will defeat Peter Jackson, that is
if odds on the black quoted in the news
papers are correct. Wakeley will bet be-
sides this sum s., 500 Of his own money. if
he can put 1t out at the rate of $50 to 800
or better. The other money he has been
commissioned to wager. 1t is supposed the
bulk of it belongs to Phil Dwyer, who took
such liking to Corbett after seeing him
output Jake Kilrain in New Orleans.
For several weeks Wakeley has carried
around $1,000, waiting for an opportunity
to put it out against 81, 900 with some strong
jackson man. He had no chance to get
those odds, however. 81 really believe
Corbett has mighty good chance to whip
Peter" said Wakely, 'and | would advise
anybody to borrow money to bet on him,
providing he can get to l. This fellow
jackson has been living too rapidly since
he whipped Jem Smith, and l tell you Cor
bett is a dangerous man to tackle. I onlv
hope Nose Gunst and the rest Of those big
betters out there don't run short of money
before they reach the coast"
Wakeley carried with him a set of boxing
gloves made in this city. Corbett was
measured for his pair when he was here a
few months ago and he learned Jackson's
size before leaving the Golden Gate last
winter. Mike Donavan gave the gloves to
Wakeley, who promised to deliver them to

Trouble Over Water in oassia County, Idaho

BELLEVUE, Idaho, May 11.-[Special tele-
gram to The HERALD. The people of Cas-
STA county in the neighborhood of Albion.
are having warm campaign over water.
At the February term of the court nearly
every rancher in the country was either a
plaintiff or a defendant in water suit.
The litigants were divided into what might
be called up the creeks" and down the
creeks''. The latter embrace the old set
tiers holding prior rights, but the former
get the first grab at the water and take it
1t was supposed that the decision in the
numerous cases would have been rendered
ere this, but when it is remembered that
the evidence to be examined carefully is
several thousand pages long, there is good
excuse for holding back the decree, There
are 100000 acres of good land along Raft
river, and Goose, Marsh, Cache, Rock and
Cottonwood creeks, and not half enough
water to go around. The sup the creeks,
use what they want and in the absence of
decree from the courts, the down the
creeks" have no redress but suit for dam
ages. Judge Stockslager appointed water
master, but he refused to act unless
another is quickly appointed The OLD set
tiers with their old rights say they will
take the law into their own hands.

The President in Leadyille.

LEADvILLE, Colo, May 1.-THE presi-
dental party arrived at 80 this morni ing
and were given most enthusiastic recep-
ton by the large crowd assembled at the
depot. The streets and buildings were
handsomely decorated. At the hotel where
the party were taken in carriages, Judge
Goddard delivered an address Of welcome
and presented brick, weighing nearly
seven pounds made of Leadville silver $3.50
fine. 1t bore the inscription: $40
benjamin Harrison, President of the
United States, from the shelters
OF Leadville, May II, 1891" On
the reverse side was the inscription,
"l59, 633,01S in twelve years" President
Harrison responded and was followed by
postmaster General Wanamaker and
Secretary Rusk, in short speeches
The party then entered carriages and
were driven to the mines where they had
cordial reception, and thence back to the
train which left the depot at o'clock amid
the hearty cheers of the populace. A
demonstration by 5000 school children
was one of the features of the day. The
ladies of the party received many beautiful
souvenirs. 1t was learned to-day some of
the party were robbed of small sums of
money while at the Portland hotel, Port
land, Oregon, last Tuesday night.

A Strange and Romantic Story.

Especial to THE Observation-Disclosures Dispatch.
WASHINGTON, May ia strange and
romantic story is that told in recent re-
port to the department of state regarding
the death of General George Pomutz,
formerly United States consul-general at
ST. Petersburg. Death in a strange land:
far away from family and friends; burial
in the potter's field, and ten years subse-
quently the sudden discovery of valuable
deeds and papers which have never been
claimed, these are the essential features of
the story of General Pomutz He was a
brilliant soldier in the war, the friend and
comrade of General Grant a prominent
citizen of keokuk, Iowa, and one
of our most accomplished repre-
sentatives abroad. He was appointed
consul at st. Petersburg February Is, 1866
and promoted to the consul. generalship on
on June II, 1874. He surrendered the Office
September so, 1878, to make room for
friend OF the administrator of President
hayes and continued to live in ST. Peters
burg. Only few years elapsed until his
death, and then the American residents
MADE up purse for his burial. No one ap-
peared to claim the body, no one seems to
have made an inquiry from Iowa as to the
dlsposltlon OF his property, and it is only
by accident Consul Crawford has recently
discovered two locked boxes belonging to
him, containing the records of his service
and deeds to town lots and farms in Iowa
and Missouri representing large sum of
money.

Secretary Tracy Has Nothing to Saw.

WASHINGTON, May 11.-Secretary Tracy
this afternoon sent out word that he had
nothing to say about the CHILEAN vessel
Itata or the Charleston. Other officials in
the navy department are equally reticent
The official mind of the department is evil
IDENTIFY in dread that possible unguarded
admis sion to a reporter might result in a
disclosure of the plan of campaign in which
the entire available naval force in the
Pacific is arrayed against one steamer
whose warlike character has not yet been
demonstrated. Certainly the government
appears to be making extraordinary efforts
to recapJure the 1tata, for in addition to
cabling Admirals Brown and Mann to head
off the runaway before she reaches Gillian
waters, it is understood instructions have
been sent to United States consular Off
GERS at all points between California and
Chilli where the ltata could reach to
promptly advise naval officers of her move
ments if she is sighted
In strange contrast with 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
Is knot vessel and last night should have
been $50 miles down the coast, or near Cane
San Lucas, where the Gillian insurgent
warship Esmeralda is supposed to be lying
in wait for the Itata But instead of
covering this distance the Charleston got
about half way and then went to anchor
over night. Later adyices show she was
last seen just above the Mexican boundary
line. Such officers as have an opinion thew
feel free to express, say the Charlestonis
movements can be explained in two WAYS !:
either the department believes the Itata is
lying somewhere off the coast of Cali
forEia, or it has no intention of seiz-
ing the vessel unless her presence
is made unpleasantly noticeable within
easy reach. The motive for such an atti-
tude by the government as indicated in the
last theory, is in brief that it might not be
good diplomacy for the United States to go
too far in the direction of of hostility to-
wards the Gillian insurgents. The duties
devolving upon a friendly government in
cases such as this never have been finally
aud clearly enuncisted by authorities on in
ternational law, but it can be safely as
sumed that in the operations of the United
States marshal in selling the Itata and
Robert and Minnie and in 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 dill

A Gas Explosion on the TancarviIle.

LONDON, May ia terrific explosion OF
gas occurred to-day in the hold Of the
British steamer TancarYille which is un-
dergoing repairs in the dry dock at New
port Five men were killed and thirteen
injured; the steamer was badly damaged
The Tancarvile is tank steamer engaged
in carrying oil from American ports. The
force of the explosion was so great that the
foredeck was torn from its fastenings and
blown off. AS the steamer was out of the
water there was no pressure on the hull TO
counterbalance the tremendous outward
strain exerted by the explosion and it is re-
ported some of the plates on the bottom of
the Tancarville were blown out. The
woodwork of the forward portion of the
steamer caught fire but the flames were
soon extingnished.
A later dispatch from Newport says the
loss of life caused by the explosion OF the
Tancarville is larger than at first stated.
The dispatch says eight were killed and
twenty five others injured. Over one hun
dred men and boys were employed when
the explosion occurred. Large pieces of
timber and iron were blown with terrific
force through the air and some hurled
against workshops situated fifty yards
away, causing much damage to them. A
number of workmen were employed in
shops struck by pieces of flying debris, and
some of them were severely injured

The Jamaica ErhihitInn a Sneross

HALIFAX, N. S.. May H. Adam S.
Brown, Canadian commissioner to the ia
maica exhibition, has returned from King
ston, Jamaica, and reports the exhibition a
great success in everything but its
finances. Brown says the people of ia
maica feel very sore over the neglect of
the United States, with which the largest
part of the trade of the island is done, to
take part in the exhibition. Strong efforts
are being made to induce the government
to send commissioners to Washington to
see If Blaine can be induced to allow the
existing relations between the two coun-
tries to continue. The people want to hold
on to their enormous trade with the United
States, but do not want to come under the
reciprocity provisions of the Mckinley
bill, for the reason that to abolish, or ma
terially lower its tariff on American bread
stuffs and manufactures, will cripple IT'S
revenue, as well as discriminate against
against England and her colonies.

The New York Lumber Trade Lock.ou,

New YORK, May 1.-THE Lumber Trade
association began to-day a lock out and
boycott, which its members assert will
cause total suspension of building opera
lions in this city before long. This action
by the association is to force the board of
walking delegates to raise the boycott on
one of the members OF the association. To
accomplish this they intend to stop the de-
livery of lumber to all buildings where
union men are at work.
Not one foot of lumber was delivered to-
day. Thirty five hundred men are out. of
which 75 per cent. belong to the labor
union. There are now eighty firms in the
Lumber Dealers association and others
joining all the time. Thene is some lumber
on hand to last few days, but when that
is exhausted building must stop for want
of lumber, because the dealers vow thew
will not deliver one foot until they have
won the fight. Much money hangs on the
result If the fight be prolonged, millions
may be lost. The dealers say the issue is
whether the labor unions or lumber dealers
shall manage the business of the latter.
This lockout will affect all the trades and
will involve about fifteen Thousand men

Williams BelllcOse Speech at Dusseldorf

Especial to THE HERALD-Exam1ner Gable.
BERLIN, May 10.-Emperor Williams
bellicose speech at Dusseldorf has led to
sharp diplomatic interchanges between
Russia and Germany. The German gloss
placed on the Emperor's remarks repre-
sents them as having no special signih-
canoe, and as being the ordinary comm on
places of a military ruler to his army.
However, that the tension of the Russo
German situation is in no way relaxed
abundant evidence is still existing in such
incidents as the obstinate refusal of Queer
Natalie to leave Belgrade and the equip
ment of warships in the Euxine
which go to show that Russian
intriguing is as active as ever
in the Balkans, but Russian preparations
for war are likely to be promptly nipped in
the bud by withdrawal of the Rothschilds
from the new loan operations, and it looks
as though by the wantOn prosecution (by her
dispised) of Hebrews, Russia was destined
to see the ruin of all her am bilious projects.
The feeling in Germany incines to a shade
of nervous excitement, and the crisis has
caused considerable reaction in favor of
Bismarck. If he were at the foreign office.

Secrecy About the Erata

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE air of secrecy
surrounding the Itata case is just as pro-
nounced over at the navy department to-
day, and it is evident the officials have no
desire to take the public into their cont
dence. The conviction, however, is gene
raj that the United States steamship
Charleston has been sent out with secret
orders to capture the Gillian steamer. Just
how far these orders extend, or how much
authority they vest in Captain Remey, is

will venture to give any information on the
subject. The order, it is said, was long
one and was wired west in the cipher of the
bureau of navigation. 1t took the officers
four OR five hours to translate the order
into cipher. 1t is said there is information
