=. WHERE ANCHORS ARE MADE.
The Little Maine Town Where Nearly All
of Them Are Forged.

"The little town of Camden, Me-,
ought to have its name changed to
Hope" said a dealer III ship supplies
and stores TO \. Y. san man, for it
turns out more of the emblems of hope
than all the other places in this conn
try combined All of he stately ships
that come ont of he blaine shipyards
look to that little village on the Penob-
scot for their anchors. Scores OF
sturdy smiths swing their hammers
day after day all the year long III the
black, smoky. long, low Camden shops,
whore only anchors are forged. Some
times the triphammers are going all
night about the forges, and the blazing
of the fires and the ring of the ham,
merS are seen and heard miles away.
Thousands of tons of old iron are pur-
chased by these queer establishments
every year, for anchors are forged
largely from cast-otf iron.
The material is cut into small pieces
by great shears that clip through the
iron as easily as cheese knife slices a
cheese. The pieces are bound into
bundles by strong wires. and are then
fused in the forges. Then they are
pounded and welded into the various
parts of the anchor, some workmen
fashioning the ring, others shaping
the dukes, others hammering out the
palms. and others forging the shanks.
Then the completers take the different
parts and fuse and weld them into the
finished anchor. Anchors of all sizes
and weights are turned out from the
noisy shops of Camden. the graceful
little pleasure-boat anchor, weighing
| but few pounds, rs well as the great
$4,000 and 1900 pound anchor Of the
biggest ships.
There are many interesting relies
at Camden in the dine of rusty and
broken anchors that did duty in their
day on famous merchant vessels. his
toric warships and sturdy whalers.
What is left of the anchor of the
I United States frigaie Cumberland is
among these relies

ger closing the door behind them.
The man was OF medium height and
build, with q sandy moustache. he
was rather poorly dressed and wore u
sloucb hat, and was in appearance not
different from scores OF men who call
upon Colonel Herriek daily. Herrick
seated himself upon a corner Of the
table that stands in the middle OF the
trustees room. He was at the corner
next TO the door. The stranger passed
him and stood at the further end OF the

n RAGE WAR

AtBnrdstOwn, Kentucky, Growing Out OF a
Negro's TriaI-SIorc Trouble Feared.
BARDsrowN, KY, Nov. 10.--This town
tonight is in a state of excitement and
an occurrence of this afternoon may pre-
cipitate a race war that will result in
much bloodshed.
For the past week the people Of this
and surrounding counties have been
aroused to high pitch over the assault
OF Edna Hall by n negro, Evans.
At the trial this evening the testi-
mony OF one OF the witnesses tended to
prove the innocence OF the accused
A crowd OF negroes had congregatcd
outside the court house when Evans
was being conducted from the court
house to the jail by the militia. They
cheered him.
The cheering of the negroes 80 ex-
asperated the whites that fight was
the result. The deputies made a charge
upon the negroes and arrested three OF
them. Leroy Wicklifie, a negro, was
badly wounded and will probably die.
More trouble may result.
The whites largely outnumber the
blacks and an outbreak will result dis
astrously for the latter. -.
1t is thought that wiser counsel will
prevail and serious trouble will be
averted. Tho militia Is guarding the
Jail, and any attempt to secure the
prisoner will certainly result in the loss
OF many lives.
Evans, when on the stand to-day,
testified that he was at home on the
night Of the crime.

THE EFFECT OF 1T.

Mr. Cleveland's Policy VIII Cause Blood
shed and Ruin on the Hawaiian Islands.
WASHINGTON, D. O., Nov. l0.-Senator
sherman, who was formerly chairman
of the senate committee on foreign re-
lations, was seen tonight by q repre-
sentative OF the Associated Press in re.
gard to the letter OF Secretary Gresham
to the President relating to Hawaii.
Mr.. sherman refused 20 make any
statement regarding the letter, saying
that it was in embryo and that it was
contrary to tho rules OF proprietY for a
member OF the foreign relations COM
mittee to speak OF such matter Sena-
tor Morgan, OF Alabama, the present
chairman OF the committee on foreign
relations, was also asked to make q
statement, but declined to do So.

committee we're provided with copies
OF the latter today.

doubt il the queen herself would live
TO sit again upon the throne.
The people who established the pro-
visional government in the islands were
the same who secured the constitution
Of 1887, which was acquiesced IN by
Kalakaua. There was danger OF dlsor-
der at that time and Secretary Bayard,
President Cleveland's former secretary
Of state, was very vigorous in his IN.
sIructions to Mr.. Merrill, tho United
States minister to Hawaii, that the
rights and interests OF Americans must
be preserved and that he was ut liberty
to call on United States armed forces
TO secure this.
ut was this constitution Of 1887
which Liliuokalani sought to overthrow
and establish one that would make
only natives eligible TO the upper
house Of the legislature, and which
would deny TO white men the right to
vote. The revolution ef last January
was the result. The United States rec
ognized the new government, has re-
ceived It's minister, has accredited a
minister to it and has granted oNequa-
turs to its consuls. How can it interfere
with that government, seek to dcposo It
and set up another in its place? We

ment to annex the Islands. They re-

Chicago, Nov 1o.-The statements
published this morning to the effect
that the Omaha World. Herald has left
the Associated Press and Joined the
limited Press is utterly untrue. The
World Herald has never been member
OF the Associated Press at any time, but
has always been client OF the United

The statement respecting the Lincoln
Stale Journal is equally untrue. It has
never been member OF the Associated
Press, but did receive the reports Of
the Associated Press for short time
under temporary arrangement, which
has been discontinued by the Associated

thereupon began an action to compel
the Associated Press to continue the

WAsnlNGroN, D. G., Nov. 1O.-Secre-
tary Gresham has received dispatch
from Minister Thompson at Rio do
Janeiro stating tina. he had received a
circular from Admiral Mello, the insur-
gent leader, asking that the United
States recognize his rights as belliger-
ent. Minister Thompson asked for in
structions. After conference between
Secretary Gresham and the President
our minister was instructed to say to
Admiral Mello that in the opinion OF
this government he had not been able
to establish either political or military
organization which entitled him to the
recognition he asked, and that it would
not be granted. Secretary Gresham
added that the position OF the United
States in the present controversy was
that OF an impartial observer.

WAmlyGroS, D. O., Nov. lO.-A letter
Of Secretary Gresham to the President
dated the 18th ulto concerning Ha-
wailan affairs has been given out for
publication.
In it he takes the grounds that tho
marines landed from the United States
steamer Boston at tho time OF the revo-
luton we're not landed to protect Amer
,can life and property, but to aid in
ovsrthrowing the existing government.
Their every presence, he said, implies
roercive measures against it. The pro.
yi,ional government was established by
the action OF the American minister
and the presence OF troops landed from
the Boston, and its continued existence
is due to the belief of the Hawaiians
that il they made an effort to overthrow
il they would encounter the armed
forces OF the United States. The letter
concludes as follows:
The earnest appeals to the American
minister for military protection by the
officers OF the provisional government
after it has been organized, shows the
utter absurdity OF the claim that 1t was
established by a successful revolution
OF the people. These appeals were Il
confession by the men who made them
oftheirweakness and timidity. Courage
Gus men, conscious OF tneir strength
and tho Justice of their course do not
thus act. -,
Mr.. Blount states that while Mt Homo
lulu he did not meet q single anneXa-
ZIONIST who expressed willingness to
submit tho question to vote OF the
people, nor did he talk with one on the
subject who did not insist that if the
islands were annexed suffrage should
be so restricted as to give complete
control to foreigners, or whites, and
representative annexationists have re-
peatedly made similar statements to
the undersigned.
The government OF Hawaii surren-
dered its authority under n threat OF
war until such time only as the gov
ernment of the United States, upon
the fact being presented to it, should re-
instate the constitutional sovereign and
the acknowledgements cregtad
ITO exist until terms OF union with the
United States OF America have been ne
gotiated and agreed upon"
A careful consideration OF the acts
will, l think, convince you that the
treaty which was withdrawn from the
senate for further consideration should
not be re.submitted for its action there
on.
Should not the great wrong done to
feeble but Independent state by an
abuse OF the authority OF the United
States be undene by restoring the leSltl'
mate government?
Anything short of that will not, l
respectfully submit, satisfy the de-
msnds Of Justice Can the United States
consistently insist that other nations
shall respect the Independence oil
Hawaii while not respecting it them
selves? Our government was the first
to recognize the Independence OF the is
lands and should be the last to acquire
sovereignty over them by force and
fraud Respectfully submitted,
