AFTER THE ETATA.
United States Vessels Believed to Have
Been Ordered to Recapture Her.

United States Vessels Believed to Have
Been Ordered to Recapture Her.
WASHINGTON, May mo informa-
ton is obtainable at the navy depart
ment as to what instructions, if any,
have been sent to the officer command
ing the United States steamer Charles
ton in regard to the recapture of the
insurgent vessel Etata. The only in
structions issued to the Charleston, that
the navy department will make public,
are those ordering the vessel to prepare
for sea issued two weeks ago. The
Charleston would have received her
sailing orders before this matter oc-
Cured, had it not been for the presi-
dents visit to San Francisco.
The Charleston is now at Goat island,
near San Francisco, and while it is inn
possible to ascertain at the navy de-
partment what instructions have been
issued to the vessel, it is generally be-
lieved that she will make an effort to
recapture the Etata, and that instruc-
tons have been cabled to Admiral Nc
Cam. now at Valparaiso, to go to sea
with the Baltimore and Pensacola, in
order to intercept, if possible, the in
surgent vessel.
Similar instructions, it is believed,
have been sent to Admiral Brown. COM
manding the Pacific station. Admiral
Brown was last heard from at Callao.

THE FLIGHT OF THE ETATA.
The Vessels Departure Not So Sensational
as Reported.

The Vessels Departure Not So Sensational
Reported.
SAN DIEGO, Cal, May 10.-The news
sent out about the manner of the Etata
leaving this port was more sensational
than the facts warranted. She had no
concealed arms or cannon with which
to make herself formidable, nor were
there any men concealed about her for
use in emergency. She had sixty-five
men when she came into port, but half
a dozen of them deserted, so she left
with about sixty men. The pilot who
took her out was not forced but went
aboard by Encouragement. She was
in communication with the Robert and
Minnie, while in port, but the United
States marshal does not seem to have
known it.
The marshal sailed around tho
schooner near the Coronado island in
Mexican waters with a steam tug on
Wednesday evening, and the captain of
the schooner made signals of contempt
and defiance. The marshal said that
his orders to detain the Etata were en-
phatic, but she was allowed to lie in the
stream two days with steam up, and
when ready, had nothing to do but
weigh anchor and go. The customs Of
fcers say they took charge of the Etata
when they boarded her, and say that
the statement about her having arms
and men concealed are ridiculous. The
Etata left here headed toward San
Clemente island, where she will pro h
ably meet the schooner with the arms
and ammunition

TO PRESERVE NEUTRALITY.

The Steamship Etata, Taking on Supplies
at San Diego. Cal, Seized by the United
States Authorities for Violation of the
Neutrality Laws-Two More Vessels
Under Suspicion and Ordered Seized il
Caught Within the Limit.
SAN DIEGO, Cal, May THE steam
ship Etata, which put in to this port
few days ago, it was said, for the pur-
pose of obtaining provisions for the war
ships now in possession of the congress
sional party-of Chilli, has been seized
by the United States marshal. 1t was
also intimated that the vessels arrival
here had some connection with the ar
rival of the schooner Robert and Min
ME off the Catalina islands loaded with
arms and ammunition.
The seizure of the steamship was the
outcome of a free interchange of dis
patches between the officials here and
the department at Washington, d. c.
Capt. Mauzsuem of the steamer was
placed under arrest by Marshal Card.
The marshal also dispatched two tug
boats to seize two suspicious crafts ~
ing outside the harbor. One of these is
supposed to be the schooner Robert and
Minnie. which was heretofore reported
to be lying off the Catalina islands
loaded with arms and ammunition. The
other is war vessel which has been
cruising around outside awaiting an OPP
portunity to take on board the supplies
for the insurgent Gillian fleet that
might be obtained by the steamer
Etata. A party sent out to investigate
the strange actions of the vessel, and to
get within speaking distance, if posi-
BILE, returned and reported that they
were unable to get within hailing dis
lance of the vessel, because she drew
off. Finally Secretary of State Blaine
sent orders from Washington to
seize both vessels if they could
be captured within the three
mile limit. 1t is believed by
the officials here that as soon as
the Etata had received her supplies she
intended to meet the schooner Robert
and Minnie, take on board the arms
and ammunition on board of that
craft, put to sea and at the first favor
able opportunity transfer the supplies
and materials of war to the insurgent
cruiser. Up to 2 a m. no word had
been received from either of the par
ties who had gone out to seize the sup
posed war ship and the Robert and
Minnie. The captain of the Etata was
allowed to return to his vessel, which
is now in charge of a deputy United
States marshal

CRANK OR CRIMINAL.

Charles j. Dickson Arrested in New York
at the Request of Jay Gould, whom
Dickson was Threatening with Assassi-
nation Unless He Made a Distribution of
His Property to Charity.
New YORK, May "A dangerous
crank, who gives his name Charles
]. Dickson, has been arrested at the re-
quest of Jay Gould. Dickson went on
Monday to the house of DR.. Mum, Mr..
Gould's physician, and announced that
he was the vice-president of an
order called the Christ Followers
and that he had mission to kill Jay
Gould. If, however. the millionaire
would give him $50, 900 and make GER
tain arrangements for the distribution
of his property to charity he would re-
frain from assassination. Dickson will
be examined as to his sanity.
On Dickson's person when arrested
were found a black jack and pistol. He
made no resistance and after reaching
police headquarters told Police In
spector Byrnes that he was in the land
commission business at Pueblo, Col,
and left there on April Is. He related
a thrilling story to the inspector about
four men he had killed single-handed
while they were attempting to rob his
Office of legal papers. He said he joined
the Christ Followers about year ago
in the following manner: He was
instructed to go to a place called Owls
Head, on the Canada line. He stayed
there until dark, and then about fifty
men in masks appeared and surrounded
him. He was made to kneel and took a
number of blood-curdling oaths. The
object of the organization was the
equalization of money. The council
met about the 18th of last month he
said, and convicted Jay Gould. 1t fell
to his lot to go to New York and make
certain proposals to MIR. Gould regard
ing the distr ibution of his wealth, and
if they were not complied with he was
to kill him. Failing to accomplish his
work, Dickson said he would kill him
self. He would go to Hartford, his ma
tive place, where he had spot selected
for the deed. He said he would have
two pistols, one to fire into the air, and
the other to shoot himself with. This
would give the impression that he had
been murdered.
The police regard him as very dan
gerous crank.
