THE SITUATION IN HAy1a.
No Fear Of a Revolution Until the
Coffee Crop Is Harvested.

PANAMA, via. Galveston, Nov. TO-
The Haytian exiles and malcontents
have decided to postpone their revolu-
ton until December in order to allow of
the coffee crop being harvested. They
claim that while General Maniguat is
determined to overthrow Hippolyte,
who had his arms in the treasury for
nearly three years, and ought, therefore,
to give place to others who are hungry
for chance in the same direction, yet
Manignat wishes to accomplish his pur-
pose without doing injury to the busi-
ness and agricultural interests of Hayti
The supporters of the proposed insur-
rection claim to be sure of success when
they are ready to move, on the ground
that Hippolyte is disgusting everybody
with his excessive tyranny and his selfish
grasp on the political spoils. General
Manignat is having a new uniform made,
which he will wear when he is ready to
proclaim himself the deliver of Hayti.
1t is very gorgeous, and cannot fail to
impress the natives. His staff are also
being provided with uniforms by
Jamaica tailors who have confidence in
the triumph of the revolution. The pur-
chase of the wooden steamer Catherine
Willing, in the interest of the revolu-
tionists. is announced on reliable author
ity.
Hippolyte's friends, on the other hand,
assert that Manignat and his followers
are wholly without funds, and that some
OF the reports of an early attack on Hip
polite and the Haytian treasury are
started i'll the interest of further credit
at Kingston boarding houses. They say
that Hippolyte was never more securely
established in power than he is today,
and that he is well prepared to repel any
attack that may be made upon him.
They say that no revolution is likely to
break out before April, by which time
the merchants in the town will have
taken in and disposed of the crops of
coffee on which they had made advances,
and when some of these merchants will
be in position, if they desire it, to
finance revolution, as it is called, by
advancing money to some ambitious
revolutionist. with the Understanding
that, if he succeeds, he VIII repay the
lender with 100 per cent. interest. I'm
til April, say Hippolytes friends, there
will be no danger, and Hippolyte will be
prepared to meet any danger that pre-
sents itself.

THE PINKERToN INVESTIGATION
The Testimony of Captain Foley Before
the Senate Committee,

The Testimony of Captain Foley Before
the Senate Committee.
CHICAGO, Nov. 10.-In the Pinkerton
investigation yesterday Senators PETER
and Gallinger questioned Captain P. F.
Foley, a Chicago Pinkerton official. The
captain was asked whether the Pinker-
ton agency had stock of arms He re-
piled that they had 400 rifles and 1900
revolvers, but the men had strict orders
not to use arms except to defend them
selves.
In reply to questions put by Senator
Peifer Captain Foley described the theory
of evictions in mining camps. He said
that the agency was engaged in this
work. Evictions We're not made with
out legal processes, but the sheriff of the
county was unable to serve the papers
without assistance from the Pinkerton
men, because those who We're not in
sympathy with the tenants We're afraid
to serve the papers, and those who were
in sympathy with them would not do it.
Referring to the H. G. Frick Coke
company trouble of several months ago,
the witness was asked whether the men
went to Pennsylvania under arms. He
replied that they did not take arms, but
they were armed at Pittsburg with
Winchester rifles sent from Chicago.
He said that Mr.. Pinkertons orders were
that they should be armed with clubs
only, and Mr.. Foley confessed that he
disobeyed orders in causing the men to
take Winchesters. But he did so to save
life and prevent disorder. He said that
miners and iron men We're only the terror
of force, and that the law and officers of
the law We're matters Of indifference to
them

hurricane ON Chesapeake Bay.

BALTIMoRS Nov. ia hurricane of
uBnsual violence swept up Chesapeake
bay at noon yesterday and played havoc
with the buildings along the water front
of the harbor and with the vessels
mOored therein. The wind reached a
velocity of almost sixty miles an hour.
The immense grain elevator, No 3, be-
longing to the Northern Central railroad
located in Canton. was considerably
damaged. The Weems line steamer
Lancaster was blown from her course
and collided with the Norwegian steamer
Holguin. The schooner Vanlear Black
broke from her moolings and was driven
against dock. The tug Volunteer was
bringing the barges jackson No. 3 and
Fred Durkee from Norfolk mp the bay
when the hurricane overlook and very
roughly handled the crafts. The Durkee
went to pieces within few minutes,
and her cargo of lumber floated al 1t
the river. The destruction of the vessel
was so rapid that the crew were rescued
from the water with difficulty. An aun-
known two-masted schooner was driven
ashore off Sparrows Point. An uptown
sloop of 80 tons is also reported off Fort
Carroll,
