SpeCldt " IHe htsCOhD-ONION.
SAN LUIS OBIsPo, April The tug
Fearless arrived at Port Hartford this
evening, after an unsuccessful cruise of
$50 miles about the place where the
burned ship King James was abandoned.
She came in to bring news that she had
seen nothing of the wreck. The CAPTAIN
thinks the latitude and longitude given
him must have been erroneous. He will
wait the arrival of the steamer Los An
geles tomorrow.
Up to o'clock tonight the brig Loafer
had not returned from the islands where
she went to search for the sailor, William
Spence, who landed on one of the islands
Monday from the Captains boat. 1t
seems that the man had a scarcity of
clothing, and unless he reached a house
within few hours might have died from
exhaustion. 1t was also ten or fifteen
miles from a house where he landed, and
the island is very rough in that vicinity.
The Court of Inquiry will be held to-
morrow at IL A. NJ. If the investigation
is concluded in time the men will be
sent to San Francisco on Sunday night
on the steamer Corona. The inquiry
will be for the purpose of determining
the origin of the fire, if the hold had been
properly ventilated to prevent spontane-
Gus combustion, and finding what was
the action of the officers and men after
leaving the ship.
The inquiry viii be held before British
Vice-Consul Mortimer White of Los
Angeles. F. e. Blake and T. r. DAVE of
this city.

"NO FIGHI.o
Decision of the Referee in the Bowen
Burke Fight.

Decision of the Referee in the Bowen
Burke Fight.
NEW ORLEANS, April THE Bowen
Burke fight was stopped in the 10th
round by the referee, who declared it mo
fight" The purse will probably be di-
vided. Bowen wanted to finish. The
bones of both of Burke's hands were
broken.
Very little fighting was done after the
ninety-third round. Bowen from that
time until the finish was the aggressor
whenever any fighting was to be done.
He landed, now and then, on Burke's
body, but was unable to do any damage
Burke's hands were practically useless,
and he only prodded at Bowen to keep
him guessing, not with any idea of being
able to knock him out.
In the l05th round Bowen fell heavily
from the momentum of his own weight,
but did not hurt himself.
In response to the vehement demands
of the crowd, the referee, in the 1O8th
round, announced that unless something
was done in the next two rounds he
would stop the contest and declare it no
fight. This only made both men
cautious. Bowen did not dare force the
fighting.
At the 10th round the referee declared
the fight no contest. Bowen protested
without avail. He was unmarked and
fresh. Burke was badly punished about
the body and some of the bones of both
hands seemed to be broken. The wrists
were much swollen and he suffered con-
siderable pain. He wants to fight Bowen
again, but President Dickson says the
club will not make new match.

WASHINGTON, April The President
has signed the commission of Max Judd
of st. Louis as United States Consul-Gen-
eral at Vienna. 1t is said at the State De-
partment that no communications, verbal
or written, have been received by the
Secretary to indicate that the Austrian
Government has any objection to the Con-
sul-General. Judd will, therefore, 60 to
Vienna and enter upon the discharge OF
his duties as Consul-General, except an
unlooked-for refusal OF the Austrian
Government to receive him.
The Treasury Department is in an
easier condition than it has been for sew
eral months past, due largely to the in
creased receipts from customs. With the
condition of lightness in gold some
what disappeared, and where no gold was
received in payment of customs duties,
gold in considerable quantity is now paid.
The net gold to-day in the Treasury De-
partment was So, 292, OH, and it is being
received daily in exchange for small
notes, for which the demand still con-
tinues good.
No additional facts relating to the as
sault upon the United States consulate in
Peru, reported yesterday, were in posses
sion of the State Department officials to-
day. Efforts to locate the scene of the
trouble have thus far been fruitless. The
cable company reports the name of the
place not contained in the dispatch, and
there was no dropping out in trans
mission.
The United States has taken vigorous
action in regard to the outrages on Amer
lean citizens at Marsovan, in the Turkish
dominions, and the violation of mails o.
the United States legation. Secretary
Gresham cabled to Minister Thompson al
Constantinople a strong expression Of
the Presidents views on the outrages,
and demanding not only prompt repara-
ton for the burned seminary, but pun
ishment of all parties guilty In the mat
ter. The Minister is to act promptly,
and advise the department by cable. No
efforts will be relaxed in securing the
legal rights of our citizens in Turkey.
Secretary Carlisle to-day received from
Edwin Walker, Chairman of the Com
mittee on Legislation of the Worlds
Columbian Exposition a letter raising
certain questions in regard to the Sundry
Civil Act, in which is included the appro-
priations for the Worlds Fair, asking
especially for a construction of the Con-
gressional action authorizing the coming
of 100000 souvenir half dollars for its
benefit, and afterward passing an Act
declaring that the Exposition must fur
nish security for the payment of $40, SSC
appropriated for awards, etc. The Di-
rectors of the Exposition are in doubt as
TO how to construe these Acts. Secretary
Carlisle referred the question to the
Attorney-General for decision.

Caleb w. West Named for Governor of
Utah.
WASHINGTON, April THE President
has sent the following nominations to the
Senate:
Caleb w. West of Utah, to be Governor
of Utah.

c., to be First Deputy Commissioner OF
Pensions.
Ambrose w. Lyman of Montana, Col
lector of Internal Revenue for the Dis
trict of Montana.

of Customs for the District of Montana
and Idaho.
The nomination of Caleb W. West is a
case of recognition of an Eek" for West

tory under Cleveland. He made a good
official, and since his retirement from that
office has spent the greater part of his
time in Washington, where he has been
an ardent worker about Congress, seek
ing to have bill passed admitting the
Territory to Statehood. He has long been
recognized as one of the leading Demo
Gratis of the Territory.

HEALTH OF THE NATION.
Doctors Disagree Upon the System of
Cholera Inspection.

Cholera Inspection.
New YORK, April dissatisfaction in
the National Council of State Boards of
Health resulted this morning in a sepa-
rate meeting of the representatives of the
States in the Mississippi Valley, who be-
lieve it impossible to handle the matter
OF cholera inspection under a uniform
system for the whole country. At to-
days meeting fifteen States were repre-
scented, covering a territory from Mime
sofa to Louisiana, and from Iowa to
Eastern Pennsylvania. Strong resolu-
tons were passed, especially in view of
the temperance of cholera in Russia,
asking the Surgeon General of the Ma
rine Hospital Service to make thorough
investigation as to the state of affairs in
Russia, and, if the facts justify, to ask
the President to prohibit immigration
from that country in whole or in part.
The Marine Hospital Service is also
asked to maintain severe inspection OF
trade and traffic, and keep it up year after
year as long as necessary, and to institute
system of immigrant inspection, similar
to the service of 1882.

DETECTIVES OFF THE TRACK.
Officers Fail So Far to Capture the
McCarty Brothers.

Officers Fail So Far to Capture the
McCarty Brothers.
BAKER CITY, April THE officers who
have been guarding Bill McCarty's house
at Haines, under the belief that Bill and
Tom McCarty, the supposed bank rob-
bers, who escaped from the officers a few
days ago, were secreted therein, made
search of the house and to their chagrin
found no trace of the McCartys.
The finding of horses near the house is
now looked upon as a ruse to throw the
detectives off the track. 1t is believed
the men have secreted themselves in the
vicinity and are now awaiting a favorable
opportunity to get out of the country by
rail, as great difficulty would be expert
enced in attempting it on horseback,
owing to the swollen condition of the
streams.
The reported capture OF Kid McCarty
at Boise City proves untrue. He is sup
posed to be in Arizona.
Eek mccarthy, stepson of William Nc
Carly, is now in jail here on the charge of
assisting Bill and Tom to escape. Eek
McCarty killed man with corkscrew
in a variety theater here two years ago.

OVERDUE STEAMER HEKLA.

The Vessel Sighted by the Veendam
Coming Slowly Westward.
New YORK, April THE disabled and
overdue steamer Hekla, from Scandina-
Wan ports, was heard from again yester-
day. The steamer Veendam, which ar
rived last night, sighted the Hekla about
625 miles east of this city, coming slowly
westward. She showed no signals indi-
eating that she needed any assistance.
She was previously spoken March 9th,
when she reported having broken a shaft,
but had made repairs and needed no help.
She has been making very slow time
since, and it seems probable that in the
rough weather the shaft may have broken
again. She has about ZOO passengers on
board.
MAY HAVE BEEN MISTAKEN.
New YORK, April THE Captain OF
the Veendam says the steamer he sighted
was Dutch tank steamer, not the Hekla.
The latter, however. strongly resembles
tank steamer, and the Captain may
have been mistaken.

JOLIET Qu.), April Am accident oc-
CURED on the drainage channel at Rome,
about 6 o'clock this evening, by which
nine men were killed and six severely
injured. A severe wind and hail storm
about that time caused the men to take
refuge in an engine-house at one end of a
huge cantilever. The machine was at the
south end of the track and an engine
house at the north end. The cantilever
was carlessly left unfastened, and as the
wind increased to a gale it started down
the track toward the engine-house in
which the men had taken refuge. When
the machine reached the end of the track
the top part toppled over on the engine
house. AS a result, nine men were killed
and six severely injured. They were all
Italians except the foreman, who was
Samuel Korus of this city. The can't
lever was so badly wrecked that it is
total loss. Another was blown over a
mile north, but no damage was done in
the latter case.
