WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-The Bering sea
negotiations are not proceeding with the
smoothness which would encourage the
belief that before the next sealing sea-
son opens the rights of the United States
in the northern ocean will be clearly
defined. No real obstacles have recently
interposed, but the government is strug-
Cling with poor success to disturb the
inertia of the British government and
secure forward movement on its part
towards beginning the long-expected
arbitration. 1t is two months now
since the last definite proposals on the
subject were exchanged. Secretary
Blaine had so far yielded to Minister
Salisbury's request as to consent to
the reference of the questions under
contention to a tribunal composed
of seven persons. One of these
arbitrators was to represent Canada,
one Great Britain, two the United
States, the remaining three to be Sc
lected from other nations. Up to this
point everything progressed smoothly
and uninterruptedly, but when it came
to an agreement upon the three neutral
arbitrators, there was hitch. Great
Britain could not be induced to submit
any names of persons acceptable to her,
and has not up to this time. Unless
Lord Salisbury speedily gives attention
to the negotiations the prospects are
favorable to renewal of the modus
vivendi with all its harassing features,
which was in force last season, for it is
improbable that a rupture will occur
between Great Britaian and the United
States on matter so important as the
personality of the arbitrators.

KNIGHTS OF RECIPROCITY.
An Alleged New Oath Bound Secret
Political Org aniz alton.

CHICAGO, Jan. ga morning paper
Gays: A new political organization has
been formed. Reciprocity is its plat
form and Blaine is its chief. The COM
blnation is laboring men ih the protected
trades. farmers who are not in or who
are weary of the Alliance and Demo
Gratis and Republicans who believe in
Blaine and a protective tariff. The
organization is secret and oath
bound. Each member must subscribe
to form which fixes his opinion on
certain questions in black and white. 1t
claims 5000 members in Chicago, among
them being Congressman w. E. Mason,
Frank Lawier and host of others,
prominent in politics and business. Out
side of Chicago the organization is said
to have 10000 members. Encampments
or lodges are to be organized in every
city in the land. Old time political asso-
Citations are to be laid aside. Its scope
is immense. 1t takes in half a dozen
great interests in the west and south
west 1t embraces everyone who is par
tial to Blaine and reciprocity, and Is or
ganized under the general name OF
Knights of Reciprocity. In the east,
where there are no Farmers Alliance
organizations, the organization is called
the Continental league. This particular
branch of the movement is intended
to exist in cities and large towns
almost exclusively. Ex-Assistant Post
master-General Clarkson is said to have
conceived the idea that Patrick Ford,
editor of the Irish World. New York,
is accredited with assisting him in work
ing out its details. In the ritual of the
Continental league four leading ques-
tions are put to candidates. They are
asked if they are citizens of the
United States, if they accept
everything in the United States consti-
tuition and declaration Of indepen-
dence, if they sympathize with those
who would deprive any citizen OF the
United States of civic honors on account
of his religion, and if they believe in the
public school system of the United
States. The plan was, says the paper,
first mooted at meeting in New York
last October, and the organization
was started in this city December 1st
last

General Palmer, the elusive, fleetine
president of the Denver and Rio Grande
Western railroad and his companion,
Vice-President Peabody, succumbed to
circumstances yesterday and brought
themselves to the point of meeting two
of the city's residents, ex-Mayor w. II !.
Workman of the Terminal road and
G. M. Wells. The quartette had quite
an extensive interview, after which
they, the moguls, were driven all about
the city, and on returning to ''The No
mad," General Palmer's private car, at
that gentleman's invitation. all enjoyed
a generous lunch.
General Palmer was here last in 1876
and Mr.. Peabody was here in 1881. Both
were of course naturally surprised and
pleased at the growth of the city and the
developments Of the county. The two
left yesterday for Santa Barbara, whence
they will go to San Francisco.
MORE NABoBs COMING.
The Terminal roads magnates will be
here week from today. The party will
consist of two carloads of railroad kings,
including R. G. Kerens, B. F. Hobart,
JEFF Chandler, George F. Leighton and
q. w. Parker
1t is stated on the best of authority
that Mr.. Kerens will then probably
make definite proposition to the people
of this city and county in reference to
the building of road from the eastern
terminal of the TIE :minal to Salt Lake
City.
AS to what is back of this project one
can only conjecture. Readers of the
HERALD will recall that a few weeks ago
this paper published the statement that
General Palmer and Vice. President Pea
body of the Rio Grande Western had
on November 2Sth met the Terminal
officials in st. Louis, and had held
long conference with them. To that
fact add the present flying visit of the
Rio Grande officials, the coming visit of
the Terminal people and the announce
ment that Mr.. Kerens is now ready to
talk business and the deus ex machina
is put quite plainly in view.

SPOKE WITHOUT AUTHORITY.
A Federal OHcisl In Canada Persopate
Sir Oracle.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-United States
Immigrant Inspector Goff, stationed at
Montreal. being interviewed by Mon
treal newspaper, is represented as using
very radical and sweeping expressions
on the immigration question, among
other things characterizing all immi-
grants from certain countries in most
uncomplimentary terms, and serving
notice on Canada that unless her gov
ernment would consent to joint inspec-
ton OF immigrants at Canadian ports,
the treasury department would stop ali
railroad trains en- route, and inspect all
immigrants at the border.
Assistant Secretary Nettleton OF the
treasury department having had his at
tention called to the matter, expressed
the hope that Mr.. Golf was misunde
stood or misreported, as he had no au-
thority to express views of the sort re-
ferred to, or to speak for the United
States government regarding any future
policy affecting immigration.

Rumors About Fresh Trouble Brewing
at Pine Ridge.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-The Indian Off
cials when questioned today as to Lieu
tenant Rorke's prediction of trouble
among the Indians at Pine Ridge
agency, South Dakota, stated that they
had no information that would lead
them to think it at all likely to come true.
Lieutenant Rorke's statement, made
to reporter at Pittsburg. Pa. was as
follows: "Trouble is brewing among
the Indians at the agency, and it is my
firm belief that they will soon start an
other crusade against the whites. /
have been among them some time, and
when l left there few days ago, they
were sullen and at times very ugly,
making open threats against the whites.
Were it not for the fact that they de-
pend largely on the government for
food, fuel and clothing for the winter,
they would rise in arms almost any mo-
ment. They are again talking about
the Messiah, and it will not be long be-
fore the ghost dance will be again re-
sumed."

SILL VIGNOLO.
HIS RECENT ATTEMPT TO COM
NIT SUICIDE.
A Young Angeleno's Rash Act In Sac
ramento-His Wound Not Necessarily
Fatal-Still Threatens to Kill Himself.

The San Francisco Examiner OF Fri
day contains the following:
SACRAMENTO, Jan. 7.-Thorougnly dis
heartened by the abominable rumors
againt his honor that had been set afloat
by evil-minded gossipers, Sylvester D..
Vignolo last night attempted to end his
life. His future looked bright, he was
young and handsome and had hosts of
staunch friends and everything to live
for. But he was sensitive to an abnor-
NAL degree, and after hours of premedi-
tation fired bullet into bis body at the
Golden Eagle hotel, where for the past
three years he has been employed as a
barkeeper. Vignolo told friend who
is employed as reporter on local
paper that his journal would have SEN
sation on the following day.
The reporter did not dream that Wig
nolo referred to his own attempt at self
destruction as the sensation, and that
his mother, Mrs. Vignolo, resident of
Los Angeles, was the woman in the
case.
All the afternoon Vignolo wrote letters,
and when he went off duty at night he
wanted the night clerk of the Golden
Eagle to loan him a revolver, but the
request was refused. He went to the
room at 713 0 street, talked an hour or
two with Peoples and Hutchinson, the
ball players, and then after placing
some articles in trunk he left the
house, as he said, to get breath of
fresh air.
A few minutes later Peoples and
Hutchinson heard the report OF a re-
volver in the street and were going out
to investigate when the door bell rang,
and upon opening the door Vignolo fell
into their arms and they detected the
odor of gunpowder. He told his friends
he had shot himself and they summoned
DR.. A. E. Breune.
1t was found that the bullet had en-
tered about two inches below the left
nipple, travelled diagonally and i'm
bedded itself in the muscles of the back
well toward the left side and almost
opposite the point of entrance. The sac
of the heart was avoided, and it may be
that not even the lung was touched.
While the wound is serious there is no
immediate danger of fatal result.
Today his medical adviser would not
permit even his intimate friends to see
Vignolo.
He said tonight that if he recovered
he would seize the first opportunity that
offered OF putting an end TO his exist
ence. Vignolo comes M6f a highly.

THE VALLEJO INQUIRY.
More Testimony as to the Murdercus In
tent of the Valparaiso Mob.

tent of the Valparaiso Mob.
VALLEJO, CAL, Jan. 9.-Today was the
third of the investigation into the at
tack on the sailors of the Baltimore.
Judge Advocate Remy presided alone,
District Attorney Garter being absent.
The testimony was taken very rapidly,
over twenty witnesses being examined.
Nearly all of the crew have now testi-
fed, and on Monday the officers will
probably take the stand.
The case of the United States, as
stated by President Harrison in his mes
sage, has been absolutely proved. There
can no longer be doubt but the mob
was organized beforehand. Nearly eyery
sailor was warned by at least one per-
son that the Baltimore men would
be attacked at dark. The clerk
of the bank where they changed
their money warned some of them; an
English sea captain stopped others on
the street and warned them, and many
others in all classes OF society also gave
warnings. As the result, many of the
sailors kept away from the low part OF
town, and went to the fashionable resi-
dences and business part, only to be fol-
lowed and attacked by the mob. There
were at least four different localities,
some of them over mile apart, where
the attacks on the sailors were made
simultaneously.
The shameful part played by the
Valparaiso police and soldiers becomes
more and more evident daily. Nearly
every witness was abused and insulted
by them, while the evidence that they
shot and killed Riggin is conclusive.

A LOFTY TESTIMONIAL.
Captain Schley's Warm Praise of Min
lister Patrick Egan.


VALLEJO, CAL, Jan. 9.-Captain Schley
said today to an Associated press re-
porter: 'sWhen / went to Chile was
prejudiced against Minister Egan, but
found him quiet, intelligent, estimable
gentleman, firm, yet not boisterous, and
in every way determined to do his duty
to the United States. His letters to the
Chilean government were diplomatic
masterpieces, unanswerable in logic,
firm and decided, and yet thoroughly
polite and respectful. l soon concluded
that he was the right man in the right
place. British Minister Kennedy de-
cared in my presence that he had
written to Lord Salisbury that Egan's
conduct throughout had been dignifed
and commendable, and that in him the
United States had a minister of whom
any country might well be proud"

UMATILLAs IN WASHINGTON.
Three Indians Make Fruitless Request
of Commis issioner Morgan.

VI HAot gam
WASHINGTON, Jan, ga delegation of
three Umatilla Indians from Oregon had
a conference today with Com missioner
Morgan. The lands of the tribe are
now being allotted in severalty, and the
special object of the visit is to urge the
commissioner to set aside timber and
pasture lands in the old reservation,
sufficient for their common needs. The
request could not be entertained by the
commissioner as he has no jurisdiction,
congress alone having power to grant
the request. One of the Indians. dressed
in Indian costume, objected to taking
land in severalty, for the reason that he
preferred to be an Indian rather than a
citizen. He wished to continue to wear
the Indian dress and dance Indian
dances. Life without these did not
possess attractions.

Some excitement was caused yester-

struck the small guard wire, breaking it.
The ends of the wire fell to the
ground, and whenever they encountered
the track, sputtered and spit. emitting

horses jumped wildly about, and the
pedestrians beat a hasty retreat. The
danger was finally stopped by the wire

police arrested him while walking in
Victoria plaza. A friend of his, resi-
dent of Valparaiso, asked the cause of
his arrest, and was told the police were ar

never expressed approval of the actions
of the police.

HURLED TO THE GROUND.
Three Workmen Injured by De-
feCtiye Seaffoiding.

A scaffolding on which three men
were at work, at the corner of Thir-
teenth street and Broadway, gave away
yesterday afternoon and severely in
jured the workmen. The Swedish
Lutheran church, at that point. is being
yeneered. and scatfold had been erect
ed on the Broadway side OF the struct-
ure. The staging was twenty-five feet
from the ground, and was constructed
of PKG and Ike timber. Bricks had been
left out of the wall at various points,
and into these apertures the timbers
were placed to support the scaffolding.
The piece of lumber used as one of
these supports gave away and precipi-
tated the men.
Ole Hanson, carpenter, thirty-five
years old and unmarried. who boards at
100 Case street, was the most seriously
injured. In falling his lead struck a
plank. causing fracture of the skull.
His arms and his nose were broken.
He was taken to st. J0seph'S
hospital, and the physician reports
his ultimate recovery probable. Andrew
Holden. a bricklayer with five chill
drcn, living at 93S Gavtier street. had
several ribs broken and was badly
bruised. Victor Johnson, a laborer.
unmarried, living at 1902 De Soto street,
was badly cut on the head and severely
bruised.
1t was very fortunate that all the
wOrkmen employed on the church were
not Oh the scaffold at the time. All but
the three mentioned were engaged
