SAILORS LEFT TO SIARVE
Strange Story Of DesertlOa on a
Coral Reef.
CHARGES AGAINST A COMPANY,
swo men said to Have Been Loft In
Charge OF Gusne Deposits Near the
Equator and No Attempts Made to
Get Them.

SAN Francisco, Aug. 19.-The schooner
Viking will sail to-day to rescue two sailors
who have boon left on ClippcrtoD Island
for over three months. Clipperton is a
tiny coral reef near the equator and is COW
cred with rich deposits of guano. The
Oceanic Phosphate company sent a schooner
to the island last spring, and in order to
hold 1t, left two sailors. Carl Jensen and
William Hall, In charge of the island.
This was May 1st and as the islands are
entirely barren, the men were given pro-
visions for 30 days with promise that be-
fore that time expired another schooner
would be sent to their relief The men
left on the island evidently had some fears
that they would be left there to starve for
Jensen sent letter to friend in this city
when the schooner sailed from Clipperton,
telling him of the circumstances and ask
Ing him to make the letter public in case
no relief expedition was sent out within a
specified time
1t Is claimed that the phosphate COM
pany made no move towards relieving the
deserted sailors, and Jensen's friend pub
lished his letter. Now the phosphate COM
pany has fitted out the Viking to go TO
the relief OF the men, but it is feared by
some that their provisions have given out
and that they have starved. 1t will take
30 days for the Viking to reach Clipperton
Island

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10. = There have
been some curious features of the silver
debate. One of the veteran official re-
porters remarked that in his long ex-
perience he had never before known a
Congress wherein so many new members
expressed their views, and especially upon
a question of such Importance, as in the
present one. This discussion he continued
is peculiar also for the fact that almost
every speech has been practically extem-
poraneous. We have had but one on
manuscript of any length so far which we
could use in the Recori-that of Mr.. Morse,
of Massachusetts. Mr.. Brown, of Indiana,
who briefly expressed his views, also read
from manuscript, but everybody else we
had to report and write out in full. Sew
eral of the speakers had prepared manu-
scripts, notably Messrs Coombs, of New
York, and Snodgrass and Patterson, Of
Tennessee, but they departed in their re-
marks so radically from the text that the
copy was useless for our purpose.

terizea the Sensational Suit.
BosToH, Aug 19-The story of the
sensational suit brought in Philadelphia
against four of the directors of the North
ern Pacific road for malfeasance in Office,
was shown to one of them, Mr.. Edwin II.
Abbott.
"This is all rot" said Mr. Abbott en-
phatically, when he read the story. "It is
merely an attempt TO influence proxies at
the coming election in October. The whole
thing was threshed over last winter"
Mr.. Abbott said this was all the work Of
Brayton Ives, and that his charges were all
completely answered eight months ago.
AS to the charge that the directors
bought for the Northern Pacific properties
in which they We're personally interested,
Mr.. Abbot said that when the Wisconsin
Central lines in which he is connected,
were leased, he was not member of the
Northern Pacific board and did not become
so for some months afterwards. When he
did go in 1t was for the reason that an in.
terest representing about a thousand miles
OF road ought to have some one in the
board to look after its interests.

therefor and that the exchange was not
made, for the reason that all the silver dol

All day yesterday there was q continu-
Gus meeting of the unemployed working
men at Golden Rule Hall ON Rivington
street, near Norfolk.
In the afternoon the meeting was ad-
dressed by Emma Goldman, the wife Of the
man who tried to kill Henry G. Frick, of
Pittsburg. Her speech was of highly in
hammatory character
She told the men that II they wanted
bread to go and get 1t, meaning that they
should loot baker shops or wherever they
thought necessary.
A committee was appointed TO arrange
for a monster parade of the workingmen
through tho city. Another committee was
also appointed to procure bread for idle
men. Que of the principal speakers at
this meeting was an Anarchist OF the nam
of Blanck, who was rabid in his utterances
and inspires his hearers to u remarkable
state of excitement.
Meetings were held in two halls, one on
Allen street and the Golden Rule Hall last
evening.
Emma Goldman and others addressed
the meetings. The speakers were generally
mild and told the men to go about their
mission peaceab.y. Some of the speakers
were bitter, however, and these were wildly
cheered.
The hungry men kept three bartenders
busy in Golden Rule Hall, and the barten-
der in the other hall had all she could do.
Emma Goldman distributed peaches to
those In the Allen street hall. One wild
looking man spoke in part as follows:
Remember Chicago, where they hanged
men. Whyi Because they were hungry.
Yesterday the dirty police arrested men.
Whyi Because they were hungry. But be
calm.
"If you are not, and attempt toget what
you want, the police will come here and
turn the hose on you, they say.
Let us parade up Fifth avenue and show
those rich people how hungry we are. They
have money for their luxuries; my wife
and child have had no breakfast for three
days"
''Do not fly the next time," exclaimed
an excited Pole. "But when the dirty po-
lice come at you the next time resist them
with all your might; stand firm and meet
them and do not fly, but after them"
There was no trouble.

been given TO the terms of the act, no less

A Very simple scheme.

WASHINGTON, Aug 10.--Of the many
financial schemes proposed to speedily re-
lieve the stringency in money, the one re-
garded by Treasury officials as the most
practicable is the one to authorize the Sec
retary of the Treasury to issue currency
against the seignorage or profit upon the
coinage OF the silver bullion in the Treasury.
There are now 130, ,000, 900 ounces of sill
yer bought under the act of 1890, and notes
issued against the seignorage on that
amount would add nearly $50, 900, 600 to
the circulating medium. A large proper
tion Of the notes are already printed, and
could be put into circulation. it is said, the
date after Congress authorized the Secre-
tary to act.

n Conference of Trades Unions to be Helc
August 20.
NEW York, Aug. 19.--The American
Federation of Labor has sent the following
call to the trade and labor organizations
in the city, which was signed by Chairman
Samuel Gompers, Secretary Chris Evans
and others:
DEAR SIRs AND BRoTHERs:--At con-
ference held by a number of active men in
the Trades Union movement Of our city,
the industrial, com mercial and financial
condition OF the country was discussed, as
well as the question of organizing a DEM
onstration of the unemployed of New
York, and further to devise means for the
relief of our fellow workers. The confer.
ence appointed the undersigned committee
to issue this address to the Trades Unions
of New York City.
"Your union is, therefore, kindly requested
to discuss the question Of organizing such
demonstration as is above referred TO and
TO select three representatives of your
union to a conference to be held with the
representatives, of all trades unions Of the
city of New York at the International
Labor Exchange, 256 East Tenth street, at
2 p. M, on August 20, 1888

depression which requires earnest and
prompt action by the trades unions Of New

Too Much Time for Talk.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-It begins to ap-
pear that both sides in the House now re-
gret that SO long a period of time MS two
weeks was set apart for debate on the sill
YER repeal bill. Now and then brilliant
speech by one OF the leaders and orators
serves to lift the discussion above the dead
level of mediocrity to which it has fallen
but relapses are certain. In truth, nearly
everything has been said that can be said
about the question, and while the debaters
may use new forms of expression and clothe
their ideas in pretty rhetoric the ideas
themselves are lacking in novelty and have
been exploited in every phase. So when
Mr. Bryan finished his speech the other day
the cries of "Vote, !" Vote" while mainly
intended as compliment to the brilliant
young orator, had also an undercurrent of
impatient remonstrance against the
shacklcs which the House has imposed
upon itself in the limitation of the deba t.
TO two weeks.
