IN MEMORY OF MAMMALIAN.

Solemn Services in the City of Mexico on
the Anniversary of the Pseudo Emper-
or's Death.
CITY OF MEXICO, June 21.-Fridav
morning the funeral services that are
annually held in San Fernando church
in honor of Maximilian, Meiia and
Miramon, who were executed at Cerro
de Las Campanas, near Queretaro
twenty-four years ago, were COM
menced by the intoning of mass
before a congregation composed
principally of aristocratic Mexico.
The church was not decorated osten-
tatlously. On the contrary, every or
namentation was of a somber hue and
in good taste with. the services that
were celebrated there. In the Latin
cross formed by the naves was raised
the sepulchral monument composed of
three large platforms forming three
distinct levels concentrically arranged.
and each rising above the other in pyra-
midal form. This catafaluue was COW
cred with black velvet, frinped with
gold, and upon its extreme height was
placed the symbols Of redemption. On
one side were seen the golden itaIic
letters NJ. NJ. M.-Maximiliau. Mira
mon and Mejia The presbytery and
naves were adorned with hangings of
black, rs were also other parts of the
temple, and there were many plants
and wreaths- Fray Isidro Camacho of
hclated at the ceremonies, assisted bv
Trays Basso Ochitrian and Francisco
Neclno. The grand orchestra was led
by Sir Clemante Menesses and the
music was of the most solemn nature.
All the gentlemen present bore candles
In their hands and the catafalque was
ncensed three times. The services
were concluded about noon and were
both most impressive and solemn.

The Wrath of the Great Spirit Given as .
Pretext For Refusing the Governments
Offer.
OKLAHOMA CITY, Ok, June 23.-The
Cherokee commission returned here
yesterday after spending ten days ne
gotiating with the KickapOo Indians,
who occupy an executive order reserva-
ton adjacent to Oklahoma on the east
and surrounded on all sides by indians
who have taken lands in severalty.
When the commission visited the
Kickapoos last summer they refused to
listen to any proposition, and while re-
spectful this year they still declined to
take allotments- They emphatically
refused to agree to any propO-
sition providing for the opening of the
reservation, and offered as a reason
that they feared that the wrath of the
great spirit, who would certainly be
angered at such action. The commits
sion labored with them for ten days,
but with no satisfactory results
Since this Is the third time this COM
mission has visited this tribe without
affecting a settlement 1t is likely the
president will soon order the Indians to
take allotements under the Downs bill
The commission will adjourn for the
summer and return to the territory in
September to resume work

Mexico to Bring Him. to Account For Vio-
lation Of Sanctuary.
CITY OF MEXICO, June 23.-Several
days ago the warships Independence
and La Libertad, of the Mexico fleet,
says the TEMPS, sailed from Vera Cruz
with 400 soldiers for an unknown desti-
nation Any amount Of inquiry was
unable to locate the point for which the
vessels sailed, as they sailed at mid
night 1t is now believed they have
gone direct to Hayti, where they have
been ordered to demand reparation of
Hippolyte for the violation of the Mexi-
can consulate at Port au Prince. The
telegram from the United States
giving details OF the act has
caused just indignation. 1t has been
the topic of conversation In all
quarters of the city, and the
general opinion is that satisfaction
should be demanded at once, and if
necessary at the point of the bayonet
Mexico could with her present army
take Hayti within three weeks 1t is
stated by government official high in
authority that neither one of the war
ships has sailed for Hayti, but they
have gone to the Huatusco, to put down
a revolt among the Indians He says
no steps of a warlike nature will be
taken by the Mexican government but
an apology will be demanded and in
sisted upon until it is forthcoming.

A TYRANT.
Balmaceda Said to Be Extremely
Bloodthirsty,
BRUTAL DRACOONING At SANTIAGO.
Opponents Tortured and Mutilated-The
Tyrant's Career Would Soon BE Short
ened II the Insurgents Had
Arms

New York, June 23.-Msny startling
facts in connection with the revolution
now raging in Chill, which throw light
upon the ferocity and despotism of Bal
maceda, are given to the public by three
gentlemen, two of whom are Chilians,
who have Just arrived here from that
unhappy land They had witnessed
the conduct of the revolution from the
inception and speak from actual knowl-
edge.
The stories of the three would seem
70 show that Balmaceda is well termed
''the tyrant" In Santiago, where his
headquarters are, no one dares to utter
word against him. lie has caused
crosses of red to be painted on all
the houses of people whom he suspects
of not being wholly in sympathy
with him, and into these marked resi-
dences his police and soldiers go at any
hour Of the day or night They ran
sack the rooms on the ground that they
are looking for revolutionists, demand
wine and food, and, after having as
good time as they wish, depart, only
to repeat the offense In some other
marked residence The people in these
houses are forbidden to lock their doors.
No one is allowed to ride on horseback
through the streets after o'clock in
the afternoon, and no persons are al
lowed to walk the streets in company
at any time of the day, and no two per-
sons can stand and converse on the
street.
Il is a veritable reign of terror for all
who either through fear or interest
have failed to cast their fortunes with
Balmaceda- The storekeepers who

larly employed by such a merchant in
such place. If the laborer is caught
on the street going to or from his work
without his tag he is gobbled up by the
soldiers of Balmaceda and impressed
into his service This system exists in
Valparaiso also.
One of the gentlemen was walking I
along the street past a jail yard He |
heard some terrible shrieks from some |
one on the other side of the wall He |
inquired of a soldier the cause and was |
told that some of Balmaceda's soldiers |

TRAVELLERS TALE.
A Yarn About the Attack on the
Czarewitch.
A COURIER DRIES UP At DENVER.
The Cars Messenger Thought to Have
Been Murdered BY an Avenger Sent to
Prevent the Real Truth Becom-
ing Known.

CHICAGO, June ga royal messen-
| ger bearing important dispatches, sent
by the czarewitch to the czar of Russia,
has mysteriously disappeared, 1t is said,
while en- route from San Francisco to
New York. The fact has been kept a
secret and it is not certain that the
Russian government is yet aware of it
G. Waterman, a member of the firm
of Grosser e Co., of Yokohama and
London, was on the same Pacific mail
steamship which brought the messen-
ger to this country and told of the disap-
pearanee for the first time at the Pal
mer house where he and a number of
well known German and English mer-
chants of Japan and China registered
on their way from Yokohama to
Europe.
According to Mr.. Naterman's account,
the messenger intended making no
stops, leaving San Francisco for the
east on the day of his arrival there.
Near Denver, however, a wreck de-
layed his train and he stopped over
night in that city. He never resumed
the journey and has not been seen
since.
There are many reasons to cause the
messenger'a acquaintance to believe
that the young Russian has met a vio-
lent death at the hands of Japanese
enemies of the czarewitch. The most
important of these is the hitherto un-
published truth regarding the attack
upon the life of the czarewitch. Mr..
Waterman was in Toxic at the time
and states that the truth was
never made known because it
showed too plainly the vicious
charactoF of eyen the highest class of
japanese people. The attack was not
made, he says, because the Russian had
desecratcd a sacred temple. The czare-
witch had accepted an invitation to
visit a great noble at Toxic. On the
way there he yielded to the imnortuRi=
ties of another noble to visit him before
reaching Toxic. His host at the latter
city received this as an insult and in his
desire for revenge stopped at nothing,
it is alleged, not even the murder of his
royal guest An assassin was there
fore hired to. kill the caarewitoh and
the resulting attempt was given to the
world as the work of a religious
fanatic.
From every stopping place the czare-
witch sends duplicate dispatches to his
father by three trusted messengers who
take the most opposite routes One of
these, Immediately after the attempted
assassination, was sent to st. Peters
burg by way of the United States. The
theory advanced by Mr.. Waterman and
his friends is that the authorities in at
attempt at continuing the deception re-
garding the affair have intercepted and
put ont of the way all the messengers
supposed to bear news of the truth.
