The City of Panama Case.

NEW YORK, Aug. l2.-The Pacific Mail
steamship City Of Panama, which was de-
tanned by the authorities of San Salvador
at La Libertad, was permitted TO sail Mon
day. This dispatch was received at the
office Of the company in this city yesterday
from the compsny's agent at Panama. The
following dispatch has been received from
the agent at La Libertad:
1.-THE City of Panama sailed Aug. 10 at S
g. m. direct for San Jose. The cargo for
La Libertad was discharged. The COM
mander Of the port refused 10 dispatch
her,"
j. b. Houston, vice-president and gen.
eral manager of the company, said that all
he knew of the detention Of the steamship
was contained in the dispatch from Captain
F. p. White of the detained steamer to the
general manager of the company on the
isthmus of Panama, from La Libertad:
The authorities refuse TO clear the ship
here, saying the ship is confiscsted by
order of the government General Letona
is passenger from Corinto, Nicaragua to
San Jose, Guatemala. The commandante at
La Union, with an armed force demanded
the surrender of five political criminals,
and refused to dispatch the ship unless his
request. After twenty seven hours in
port 1 sailed without clearance. The
agents here advised going to San Jose
direct 10 land passengers, apprehend-
ing serious difficulties from Ezeta at
Acaiutia with an armed force determined
to arrest the five political refugees on
board. / await your advice.''
The agent, in reply, sent this dispatch to
Captain White: Proceed to San Jose di-
rect, keeping your passengers on board un-
III you can communicate with the United
States minister
This means to San Jose de Guatemala
Houston said Captain White had either to
deliver up the passengers, who were under
the protection of the American flag, or sail
from La Union without clearance papers.
He waited twenty seven hours for his
clearance papers and then sailed without
them. Houston believes Captain White
WAS justified in this course because of the
up-carrying mail, which had TO be de-
livered. II believe the whole trouble"
ssid Houston twas caused by Germans,
who have been endesvoring for some time
to get control of that trade. They try to
prejudice the public aguinst our company,
which built up the trade and furnished
every facility to carry on the business
Now.they want to step in and get control of
the business

LOGAN, Aug. Especial telegram to
THE HERALD. Robert w. Sloan, editor
of the Logan Journal. the Democratic or
gan of Cache county, was arrested this
afternoon by Deputy Marshal Cory on
warrant issued out of c. c. Goodwin's
court. The complaint charges Mr.. Sloan
with threatening one II. II. keith, and
thereby lettering him from voting on the
3rd day of August, at the election In Logan
City.
Your correspondent interviewed several
eyewitnesses present at the alleged intimi-
dalton. and they tell substantially the FOL
lowing story: Mr.. Sloan was manager Tor
the Democratic party at the polls on cleo
ton day. Keith, who had been absent
from the city for some time and who had
presumably given up his residence here
attempted 20 vote He was challenged by
Mr. Barber, Democratic challenger. Keith
lad said on the street that he had returned
My for the purpose of voting. During an
argument resulting from the challenge Mr..
Sloan told Keith that he was
voting illegally ana there was a
penalty attached to il. Turning TO
the judges of election, Mr.. Sloan
said: 81 will have him arrested if he
votes" Keith, without waiting for the
judges decision, turned away, saying: III
there is going to be so mush fuss about It
III not vote" He did not vote, and Re
publican vote was lost. c. G. Goodwin,
the commissioner who issued the warrant,
IS registration officer for Cache county; en
eyewitness to the alleged intimidation; an
sx-Liberal and very zeslcus Republican.
He has said more about this keith Eistter
than any other man in tho city. He is,
therefore, competent man to try tho osse.
1t is whispered that few Republicans
gathered in Goodwin's oflica this morning
and arranged the little plan. Sloan is the
culy one arrested for intiEidating voters,
but thore ace warrants cut for FIVE or six
fo- Illegal voting. 1t is said by parties

A GREAT POET.
James Russell Lowell, Author of
The Biglow Papers, Dead.
He Passed From Sleep to Gentle Death-His
Last Words We're. oh, Why Don't
You Let Ne Dis2"

BosToN, Aug. 12.-Jamcs Russell Low
ell died at 2 10 o'clock this morning.
Lowell hlmself, never inquired as TO the
nature OF his Ealady. From inquiries It
was ascertained Geld afflicted him almost
constantly of late, and that hemorhages
and lattorly a severe type of liver dis
ease in turn. Lowelrs health was i'm
paired ever since returning to this country
in 1855, after concluding his services
abroad q year snd a half, his condition
became severe and fatal termination was
feared, but his health then had chance
o. recovery. Mrs. Burnett, his only chilli,
was with him constantly. She is his only
near relation except a brother, whose
Whereabouts are unknown.
II appears the poet was taken SICK aoout
five weeks ago. About two weeks or more
ago he became delirlous, and up to Mon
day 10 recovered consciousness only at
brief intervals, when he gave members OF
his family signs OF recognition MONDAY
afternoon when the nurses changed the
bedding, he suffered intensely when moved
and finally said ''Oh, why don't you let
me diel' These words were his last. He
bosued from taat time 10 lose heart and
gradually his life faded away. He con-
tinued in q comatooo condition until 2:15
O'Clock this morning when the last spark
of HE went out. Beside him in his last
moments were the sister OF his first wife,
his daughter Mrs. Edward Burnett and
her husband, the x-Congressman, ns well
as the nurses and servants of the house
hold.
at the mansion on the Elmwood estate
where Lowell died there were no members
OF the family to-day, but the daughter and
son- in law of the poet. His body lies in the
sleeping apartment where the last hours Of
his life were spent. His death was ex-
tremely peaceful. Although il was known
he could not live much longer, his death
was nevertheless rather unexpected. The
transition from sleep to death was so easy
tina: for a few moments nobody in the
room observed he had ceased 10 breath.
His eyes were closed and they never
opened He passed away with only a
heavy sigh to indicate the separation OF
bis great soul from his worn out body.
The funeral will be held Friday at noon in
Appleton chapel, Cambridge. II is probable
Bishop Elect Phillip Brooks will of1lciate.

Pugh Thinks Cleveland Not Available.

Especial TO THE HERALD-Examlner Dispatch. ]
SARATOGA, Aug. Ex-senator James l..
Pugh, of Alabama, one Of the sblest men
on the Democratic side of the Senate, has
arrived here, accompanied by his family,
and will remain here for several weeks.
81 do not believe Mr.. Cleveland will again
be our candidate for the presidency" said
the Senator "Mr. Cleveland, in my opin-
ion, threw away his chances when he
wrote his silver letter to the Reform club.
He not only injured himself with the
Democrats on account Of his views ex-
pressed in that letter, but on account of the
inopportune time at which it was penned.
At that time we were working away in the
Senate strsiDing every nerve TO defeat the
force bill by forming an alliance with the
western Republicans who favored the free
coinage of silver. We naturally expected
announcement from MIR. Cleveland, but
we received none as regards the force bill.
Then, besides these reasons, the division
of opinion among New York Democrats
does not improve Mr.. Cleveland's chances
of receiving another nomination. III James
E. Campbell defeats Major Mckinley for
governor of Ohio, it will be impossible to
prevent him from receiving the Democratic
nomination for President Campbelrs
speech to the convention that nominated
him did not contain a single mistake. 1t
was very able and proved Campbell to be a
man OF ability. In case Campbell should
not be available, then Senator German
would make an excellent candidate. He is
the coolest, most level-hea6ed, self reliant
man l ever knew"

MARYLAND FARMERS
They PrOmulgate a Platform of
Principles.
EQUAL TAXES FOR ALL DEMANDED
To Tax One Lower Than Another is to Rob One
For the Benefit Of the 0ther-Brown
Endorsed for Governor.

BALTIMORE, Aug. 12.-The Farmers alli-
ance or Peoples party began Its second
days session of the state convention at 9
this morning. All outsiders and reporters
were excluded.
Resolutions were adopted this afternoon
by the Maryland State Farmers alliance
declaring that as all citizens are equal,
therefore taxation on both real and personal
property ought to be equally imposed; that
every exemption from taxation is a direct
appropriation for the benefit of the owner
OF the exempted property ana an increased
levy on the property of the tax payer; that
no exemption law is just; that no law,
contract or devise directly or indirectly i'm
posing the payment of any part of any tax
upon any man not the bona tide owner OF
the property ought TO be tolerated, but
ought to be illegal and void; that mortgages
should be taxed where recorded; that non
residents OF the state ought not TO partlcl-
pate IN the use and employment OF the pub
lie property OF the people of the state and
therefore the oyster and other fisheries of
Maryland ought to be preserved by law for
the sole use and benefit of the citizens of
Maryland. The platform adopted at Ocala
was endorsed. The following was also
adopted:
The Farmers alliance and Industrial
union Is not ana cannot become q political
party. The proper work of the order is
educational only, and members are first TO
decide with what party they will act IL
IS on the other hand for political parties
and managers thereof, each for themselves,
70 determine what they will do to deserve
the moral support of the order, or votes OF
lts members. Frank Brown. the Demo
cratic nominee for governor, was endorsed
for governor in the following resolution:
Where's, Frank Brown, of Carroll
county, has announced through the press
his candidacy for the governorship and that
he has appealed to the farmers of Mary
land fo- support, and in public speeches
further declared his sentiments as favor
able TO snd upholding agricultural inter
ests:
Therefore, the Farmers alliance of
Maryland desires TO recommend his candl-
dacy to the favorable consideration of the
farmers of the state"
Officers % the alliance and delegates to
the supreme council will be chosen to- NOR
row after which the convention will ad-
journ.

Mott posted $50 or so with his friends to
back him against Tehee and had his other
acconplices take bets and when the time
for the word go was to be given, several
hundred dollars were up on the other SIDE.
Z. c. Wilson, working for Wilton s. Co,

money and was one OF the suckers. In the
start Nett slipped and Tehee crossed the

Drought in Mexico.

san ANTONIO, Tex, Aug. 12.-Advices
from many points in the state of Coahuila
and Durango, Mexico, are condensed into:
Water scarce; poor crops and money. A
good cotton crop has been made in but one
settlement, the colony of Tjahuallle, in
which President Diaz and one of his ex-
ministers are personally interested. The
people have obtained water from the river
Nezas, thereby depriving the planters CO
Laguna district and their hundreds of de-
pendants. 4 riot has been narrowly
averted. Corn in Durango is selling at
$40 Per venega, of los pounds. A deputa-
ton OF citizens recently visited the City of
Mexico 20 induce the government to re-
move the duty on American corn, but was
not successful. Many of the poorer classes
of Durango are destitute aud their needs
have converted them into very dangerous
characters.

Colon, Aug. 12--Tne enthusiasm at
IquiGue, headquarters of the Chilisn insur-
gents, over the arrival of the Maipo with
arms on board, appears TO have been in

arms, the Congressionslists were undecided
and obliged to act purely on the defensive.
Now the robust arm of every citizen would
be able TO WELD weapon In the cause
against the dictatorship. The Maipo had
hard time during the voyage. In fright

seas broke over her and it was feared at
one time she would be wrecked, but the
seamanship Of Commander Gomez pulled
her through, and as the vessel neared

knew no bounds The excitement on shore
was no less great. Thousands gathered on
the beach to welcome the officers and crew,

possible demonstration of Joy. When Com
