Carter Talks seals TnteIIlgentIY.

In resuming his argument before the
tribunal of arbitration Mr.. Carter,
United States counsel, claimed that
the seals were not ferae naturae, but
private property when nourished and
tended by man. The seals frequenting
the Prebyloff islands We're, Mr.. Carter
contended, guarded and cherished by
the United States and therefore a spe-
cies of husbandry was formed, giving
a property right in the seals.
Continuing, Mr.. Carter said that
Great Britain claimed the right to prey
upon animals whose very existence to-
day was due to the efforts of the United
States. The determination of seal life
in Behring sea had been prevented by
the United States, and this action of
the United States was worthy of the
recognition of humanity, who still
benefited from the seal industry.

HURRAH FOR HOME RULE.
The Grand Old Man Pushes the Measure
Through Second Reading.

London cable: The house OF COM
mons was crowded with members and
spectators on the occasion of the sec
ond reading of the Irish home rule bill.
Mr.. Balfour closed the opposition and
his arguments were repeatedly cheered.
lie said there were no reasons sutfi-
cient to meet this important constitu-
tional change; that it was absurd to
hold England responsible for Ireland's
woes; that the bill was a decisive step
toward final separation and that 1t
would result in the disintegration of
the empire; that the bill, If it passed,
would entail loss and hardship upon
all classes in Ireland. Irish ambitions
would center in the new Dublin parlia-
ment. Irishmen would regret the i'm
perial parliament as foreign and de-
feated ';ody. IF you commit this
great political crime" said Mr.. Pal
four, in closing his speech, you make
yourselves responsible for any irrepar-
able national disaster and all hopes of
peaceful and united Ireland will van
ish forever Prolonged cheers and
counter cheers followed this peroration.
When Mr. Gladstone arose to close
the debate there was tremendous
cheering. The old gentleman was in
fine condition and his voice clear and
distinct. He said: The principal
weapons of the opposition, were bold
assertions, persistent eXaggeration,
ccDstant misconstruction and copious,
arbitrary and baseless prophecies.
True, there were conflicting financial
arrangements to be dealt with, but,
among the difficulties nothing existed
which ought TO abash or terrify men
DESTROYS to accomplish a great object.
The present bill sought to close a con-
troversy that had lasted for centuries.
Ireland loyal acceptance of the pre-
sent bill should cause distrust and dis
belief to vanish There had been no
disaffection of the Irish mind since the
door of hope had been opened. The
persistent distrust of the Irish people,
despite all they could do, came simply
to this-tha they were to be pressed
below the level of civilized mankind.
When the boon of self-government was
given TO the British colonies, was Ire
land alone to the excepted from its
blessings? To deny Ireland home rule
was to say that she lacked the ordinary
faculties of humanity.
Mr. Gladstone's closing words were:
"You cannot be surprised that we have
undertaken the solution of this great
question, and as on the one hand, it is
not the least of the arduous efforts of
the liberal party so, on the other hand,
IL will have its place in history-aye;
and not remote, but early history-as
not the least durable, fruitful and
blessed among its accomplished acts"
The bill passed the second reading by
| vote of 347 to 304.

Emperor william Visits the Pope.

Cable from Rome: The emperor and
empress of Germany called on the pope
and Wilhelm and Leo spent full hour
in conversation while the empress was
being shown about the building. The
royal Germans were received with
great ceremony. The emperor re-
manned in conversation with the pope,
while Ereiherr Marshall Won Bieber-
stein was in attendance in the ante
chamber. The interview lasted IS
minutes after the departure of the EN-
press. The pope was more atfable
than usual, while the emperor, al
though amiable, seemed to be some
what preoccup;ed and nervous. At the
end of the interview the emperor S
suite was presented to the pope. Upon
leaving the emperor was accompanied
by the pope, contrary to the etiquette
of the vatican, through the ante-cham-
Der to the throne room.
AS they parted the emperor made a
movement as if TO kiss the pope's hand.
The pope quickly Withdrew his hand,
then grasped the emperor's and shook
it cordially three times. The emperor
joined the empress and visited with
her st. Peters and the treasury. The
departure of the imperial party from
the vatican was accompanied by repe-
tition of the ceremonial with which
they were received.

TWOSCALDED TO DEATH
THE CYLINDER HEAD OF ALAKE
STEAMER BLOWS OUT.
Two Others Very Severely Injured
Other Michigan News.

A shocking disaster, resulting in the
death of two men, the probable fatal
injury of u third and the severe scald-
ing of a fourth, occurred in Lake st.
Clair. The 'straightback'' steamer
Choctaw, Capt. w. w. Brown, coal
laden, from Cleveland to Milwaukee,
had fairly entered the lake when the
cylinder head blew out with a terrific
report and firightful results.
Nelson Chambers, the cook, who was
standing nearest the engine at the
time, was so badly scalded that he died
within 10 minutes. G. Jones, fireman,
80 years old, residence unknown, died
in few minutes after reach
ing the marine hospital at Detroit.
+. =. Thompson, oiler, was badly
burned about the hands, face, neck
and head, and in the mouth and throat
from inhaling the escaping steam; re-
covery doubtful. Il. Smith, engineer,
had his hands badly scalded, but his
condition is not dangerous.
The immense iron hull shook from
stem to stern with, the shock, and as
the action of the engine ceased she
preached to under the strong easterly
gale prevailing. Capt. Brown imme-
diately ordered the anchor dropped and
the Andaste, a vessel of the same line
as the Choctaw, was signalled and took
the injured men men to the U. s. Mar
inc hospital, Detroit.
LATER-T died from the
effects of his injuries, this making the
third victim. 1t is now believed that a
faulty steam gague was responsible
for the disaster.

Hawaiian National Guard Soldiers Pois-
oned by Acknowledgement VIII
liam and Pope Leo Meet.

Advices from Honolulu give few
particulars of a wholesale attempt to
poison the soldiers of the National
Guard. Thirty soldiers at the bar
racks and thirty members of the Ma
tional guard were taken with violent
vomiting spells. Surgeons were hast
lily summoned and found that the men
showed symptoms of irritant poison
ing. Capt. Good at the barracks said
that the bill of fare at dinner was
roast beef, boiled tongue, peas and
fresh vegetables with tea and coffee.
lie could not account for the trouble.
He had eaten dinner at the barracks
but he had escaped illness. The men
laid blame to the boiled tongue and did
not hesitate To accuse some one in the
employ of the royalists of an attempt
at poisoning.
Five Cinnamon are employed in the
kitchen at the government but no sus-
picion is attached to them. In all
about 60 men, 30 at the barracks and
80 in Company A of the National Guard,
were rendered unfit for duty, but most
of them soon recovered and none are
likely to suffer permanently. Much
mystery surrounds the affair and it has
caused great sensation. The royal
lists very Indignantly deny the exist
ence of a plot to destroy the govern
ment forces in this murderous manner.

MR.. BARNES OF LANSING.
A stinguished Citizens Fortune seri-
Ously affected

Ousiy dHecteu.
Lansing has had such a fright over
financial matters as would almost turn
its citizens hair gray. For sew eral
days it had been noised about that a
crisis was imminent in the affairs Of
the Lansing Lumber company and Iron
and Engine Works, both of which in
situations Orlando Il. Barnes is presi-
dent. The climax was finally reached
when both companies gave Orlando M.
Barnes, father of Orlando H. Barnes,
mortgages upon all their property, real
and personal, to secure their paper,
upon the greater portion of which he
is the sole indorser.
The two mortgages therefore secure
a total indebtedness of Sol 200, which
approximately represents the total liza
bilities of the two companies. BY this
arrangement, which was effected with
the consent of all the Lansing banks
which held large proportion of the
paper, o. M. Barnes practically as
sumes the ownership of both properties
involved, and will combine his per-
sonal fortune, which will reach 81, 000,-
900, with the assets of the companies,
which represent an additional $500, 900,
for the purpose of meeting liabilities
which will not exceed 100000. Mr..
Barnes is entirely confident that he
will be fully able to meet the emer-
gencies and says that every dollar of
indebtedness will be paid. He will
give the business of both concerns his
personal attention.
The fact that o. L. Barnes was also
president of the Central Michigan Saw
ing Bank precipitated run on that
institution and in a short time So, 900
in saving deposits was withdrawn.
After consulting with Bank Commits
sioner Sherwood, who is in the city,
Cashier Bradley decided that it was un-
fair to the majority of the depositors to
permit the run to continue and SO
closed his doors. Commissioner Sher-
wood at once took possession and the
bank will remain closed pending his
examination of its affairs.

LIKE RATS IN A TRAP.
Ia MEN DROWNED AT THE WA
TER WORKS CRIB
At Miiwaukee-They had Taken Refuge
In the Intake Tunnel During the Storm
Other News of the Hurrlcan.

Lake Michigan has been the scene of
some narrowing windstorms, but the
one related in the following dispatches
are doubtless without parallel in the
history of the great lakes. The disas-
ter which occurred at Milwaukee could
not be foreseen:
The crib at the end of the in
take tunnel of the city water works,
situated some 5000 feet out in the lake,
was washed away and of Is men who
were employed there in the shaft which
reaches to the shore, but one is known
to be alive. Some were doubtless
washed off by the huge pillows which
have been tumbling on the shore and
others persisted in the air shaft, where
they sought shelter, and which filled
with water. At daylight no vestige
either of the CRIB or the house that SUR
mounted it could be seen and there
were but faint traces here and there of
the government breakwater that was
hidden in the mountains of surf that
broke over it. The entire prospect as
far as the eye could reach was one aw-
full spectacle of seething, boiling roar
ing pillows that seemed to unite with
the clouds in the sky. On the beach
were two lumber-laden crafts that had
vainly sought shelter behind the break
water, while the shore was strewn
with wreckage.
About 200 feet of the breakwater,
which was thought to be staunch
enough to Withstand the severest storm,
had been washed away, and the mas
sive timbers and planls were tumbled
in disordered heaps upon the shore.
snhA.tea,1s Of eraf h
cred on the shore when the news of the
disaster had been made known. About
0 o'clock when the crowd which had
been straining their eyes TO see the
bottom of the crib (which, being
anchored by stonework to the bottom
of the lake, still remained), which
was visible between the huge waves.
Suddenly some one cried out: Il see
Il man" Powerful glasses We're soon
sweeping the angry waves, and sure
enough there was man clinging to
the pump, the only remaining piece of
machinery.
The tug Welcome. with lifcboat
and men, started at once for a battle
with the waves. 1t was heroic strug-
gle, and when Capt. Peterson finally
reached the crib with rope and a life
preserver sorry sight was presented.
Three corpses were rolling about the
crib, and James Miller, the sole sur
vivor, was too week To longer help him
self. After being cared for at Emergency
hospital he told the following story:
1T was o'clock in the morning when
we found that water was entering the
air tight compartment of the shaft
where we had taken refuge for the
night. We took vote to decide
whether we would risk leaving the
shaft. 1t was decided to leave. Only
five of us succeeded in reaching the
outside. The nine men who were
not strong enough to get out were
drowned by the water coming into
the shaft and four out of the five who
got out were mangled or drowned by
the tremendous floods which were
dashed over the crib. At what hour
the house was washed away l do not
know. 1t had disappeared when we
got out of the shaft"
