Department of the Interior Draped In

Republican Caucus Favorable TO
Admission OF Territories,
WASHINGTON, Jan. "a Secretary Noble
to- day issued an order announcing the
death of Justice Lamar, referring to the
latter's valuable lsbors while secretary of
the interior and ordering that the depart
ment be draped in mourning for twenty
days, the flag carried at half-staff and the
department closed on the day of the
funeral.
The republican senator's in caucus to day
decided by majority vote to take favor
able action upon the admission of the ter
ritories of Oklahoma, Utah and New Mex
leo. This result was attained after a pro-
longed discussion. Much opposition was
manifested by some eastern senators, who
pointed to what they called manifest evi
dences of the inability of these ter
ritories to take up the cares and burdens
of statehood. Senator Dubois made en-
elaborate speech In favor of the
action that was taken and was backed up
by at least the entire representatives from
the Pacific coast and the northwest. As
the caucus decided the question of sd-
mission should be taken after the Nicars-
qua canal discussion, and as the latter will
be preceded by consideration of several
important measures, the chances for the
discussion of the bills to admit these ter
ritories is still slim.

Island Cave-DvVeIIcrs.


Ben E. Miller, Port Townsend boy who
was on the United States steamer Bear
during her recent eight month"; cruise In
the northern sess, has many tales to relate
of his adventures and the sights he has
seen. Among other things he tells of the
Bears visit to Kings Island, In Bering
Strait, thirty miles off Port Clarence and
the shores of Alaska, where there are about
200 of the most curious islanders that ever
were seen. The island or rock they in
habit is about half mile wide and little
more than that distance long, and the
islanders are csve-dwellers and live On
whale blubber, zeal and walrus meat.
On the southeast side, closely nesting
against the cliff, is village of the
cave dwellers- One abode Is built over
and under the other, and to the
right and left, giving thm a strange.
motley appearance, not unlike the recssses
inhabited by bald -agles There are mar
row caves excavsted into the side of the
crumbling volcanic rock, and In the bot
tom of each is some of the short native
grass, forming bed on which to sleep.
At the mouth of the cave and Just In the
interior fires are kindled, and here they
warm themselves in the winter. Skins of
different kinds are slso suspended outside
to keep out the snow and cold In the
summer the hardy natives leave their holes
and live in odd houses made Of poles
constructed near at hand on the edge of the
cliff.
These strange people are usually as
strong and vigorous as can be found any
where. Moreover they are entirely con
tented and as happy as people in any of
the great cities of America. They have no
government, no chief and no need of laws
Living in families and setting forth every
day in their kisks for the whale, seal and
wslrus, they return escn night to their
caves or pole tents, caring nothing for the
outside world
Odd to relate, however, prestige Of the
native is determined by the clothes he
wears. AS these consist of skins and con
stitute tAe wealth of the islanders, 1t will
be seen thst they are not in this respect SO
much unlike civilized people But the
man with more clothes than anybody else
has no more authority He Is respected
for his ssgacity, but that is all.
Little has been known of the Islanders
hitherto. For great many years sitter the
wha,ers had been going to Boring Strsit's
and the great Mackenzie Ii was supposed
the huge brown rock was uninhabited. Il
wss like beacon in the sea, and about It
nothing was to be seen nor heard except
the roar of the waves and the wierd cries
of the wild fowl. Finally someone dis
cerned smoke ascending from the other
side OF the cliff. a landing was made and
there the islanders were fo0nd. They said
they and their forefsthers had been there
always and that they knew no other world,
though they hsd heard that there was
one. This was only q dozen years ago
Since then the whslers have kept an eye
out for them, for they liked the generous
natives, who showed many good traits.

was the question of admitting the New
York Driving club to the circuit. This was
sgreed to. Then came the question Of the
arrangement of dates for the season. Buff
falo's demand for two weeks this year in
stead of one, as heretofore, and the newly
crested claim of the New York club for q
week complicated matters. and considera-
! BILE time was taken up in the adj ustment.

This assignment of dates was agreed to

assignment was made ia to cover period
of five years 1t was decided that here
after no track further would be admitted
except by q two-thirds vote. 1t was fur
Their arranged that hereafter the presiden
will call a meeting of stewards early II

Elk Governor Buckley got q resolution
through providing that each association
should offer series of stakes for two

governing the events to be decided upol
later, but the purses offered to sggregat
at lssss s75, 600. just before the meetin
closed Secretary Archer read a resolution
which apparently nullifed the foregoin
, by giving each association the right t
change its program and stakes as it ss'
fit.
The remaining business of the meetin
was Mined 10 appointing committe
composed of Messre. Archer, Wenderotl

The Encounter Results in a Black
Eye for the Anti.ParneIIite-The
Aggressor Held TO Answer-Rxeft-
Ing Nature of the Testimony.
DURIIN, Jan. A.-The hostility between
Parnellites and snti-Parnellites is sssum-
ing an acute phase. Pierce Mahoney. the
former Parnellite II. P. for North Meath.
who was defeated In the late election by
Michael Dsvitt, had an encounter TODAY
In the four courts with Matthew Joseph
Kenny, nationalist II. P. for Middle Ty-
rome. The result is that Mr.. Kenny wears
black eye. Kenny was In the hall of
| the four courts at the time that Mahoney
approached him. Mahoney WAS excited.
and rushing up to Kenny, exclaimed,
Chow dare you insult my mother" With
that Mshoney brought his fist in forcible
contact with Mr.. Kenny's eye.
Aahoney was arrested, but was soon
released on giving surety for his appear
ance in court. Kenny proposes to prose
cute Mahoney to the full extent of the law.
The remark which is said to have given
offence to Aahoney was uttered by Mr..
40 . EENcSa Ac dcuNcIGQ on
Sunday last.
There was a lively scene In the police
court. Mahoney was brought up for ex-
animation on the charge of ASSEMBLING
Kenny. The court room was crowded,
most of those present being Parnellits
sympsthizers with the defendant. Timothy
Hesly, III. P appeared as counsel for the
prosecution. In opening the case Mr.
Healy said that Mr.. Kenny was barrister
and was wearing his wig and gown when
Mahoney approached him, and, without
saying word struck him in the eye, csus-
ing an Inflammation of the surrounding
tissue. commonly called black eye. Ken.
ny, when struck, seized Maheney by the
throat and gave him into custody. Mr..
Healy said he hoped the crown would take
charge of the case, and demanded the in
fiction of q severe punishment upon the
sggressor.
Mr.. Kenny took the stand and presented
ocular evidence that he was suffering from
a black eye. His testimony agreed with
Mr.. Healy's statement about the unexpected
impact of Mahoney's fist upon his unof
Tending optic Mr.. Kenney added that,
while he was yet staggered by the sudden
blow, an exulting laugh rang upon his be-
wildered ears. He saw, with his veil eye,
that the laugh came from John E. Rey-
mond, NJ. P, for Waterford City, who was
near by.
Kenny was subjected to a severe CROSS
examination. He admitted that Mahoney
at the time of striking the blow, said to
him: "You issulted my mother" He also
admitted that he had called Mshoney's |
neither a "orossbred Hindoo"
John E Redmond, NJ p, took the stand
His testimony threw no new light upon
the case, but he remarked with emphasis |
that any man who used insulting language |
about women ought to be thrsshed. The |
Parnsllites applsuded this remark loudly,
and glared at Mr.. Healey. Mahoney was
then bound over.
