San Francisco, Nov. 1.-THE steamer
Australia, which arrived today from
Honolulu, brings news of diplomatic
correspondence indicating somewhat
strained relations between the govern
ments of Hawaii and Japan. 1t is re-
ported that Fiji, the Japanese consul
general at Honolulu, sent a communi-
cation to Foreign Minister Hatch com
planning of the statement reported to
have been made by Thurston, Hawaiian
minister to the United States, in an in
terview published in an American news
paper, Thurston is charged with hav-
ing said that it was the intention of
his government to root out the Japan
ese and Chinese in Hawaii The
Japanese consul-general demanded to
know whether the Hawaiian govern
ment Endorsed the words of Minister
Thurston. la his reply, the foreign
minister, Hatch, politely declined to
recognize the authenticity of the re-
ported newspaper interview, and stated
that he did not believe Minister Thurs
ton had made the assertion attributed
to him.

MUTINY ON A STEAMER.
During the recent trip of the steam
ship Naushan, conveying 900 Japanese
from their native country to Honolulu,
the crew mutinied, and for eight days
the vessel was worked by the officers.
A quartermaster started the row. He
was not steering properly, and Cap
tain King called his attention to the bad
service. The man ordered the com
mander away from the wheel Captain
King was thunderstruck at the audaci-
ty of the petty officer and reprimanded
him sharply. At this the quartermaster
struck Captain King. The scuffle soon
attracted the attention of all on board,
and there was a wild rush in that di-
rection. Several officers turned their
attention to the 900 passengers, doing
all possible to prevent a panic. The
crew to a man came to the aid of the
quartermaster Two or three had
hatchets, others knives and the remain
der bars and clubs. Captain King and
the Britishers who came to his aid
recognized that the odds were too
great to think of entering into a combat.
No effort was made to enforce discip-
line. The crew mixed in with the pas
| sengers. The immigrants were in
sympathy entirely with the mutinous
body and the leaders among the trav-
elers threatened to take up the quarrel
of the crew and stood ready at all times
to help the sailors. Upou the arrival of
the vessel at Honolulu the mutineers
We're arrested.

BLOODY BATTLE AT GREENSBORO
Kentuckians Drew Their Guns and Two
Men viii Die of Wounds.

greensboro, KY, Nov. 1S.-A bloody
battle was fought today in which John
Ashby, an ex-policeman, and Jack New
elm, a grocer and saloonist, We're NOR
tally wounded, and policeman
wounded.
Nevelin had told Ashby and his gang
to stop dancing in his place on Sunday.
They left and frightened some women
in a house of ill-fame by a sham fight
One of the women ran to Nevelin with
a story that a man was cut to pieces.
Just then Ashby stepped from behind
tree and attacked Nevelin with club
Nevelin ran into the house and he and
his brother appealed to two-policemen
who appeared, for protection. Ashby
drew a revolver and fired at Jack New
elm. Immediately seven pistols were
drawn and a perfect fusilade followed.
Ashby fell with ball in his right
breast and lungs, and is now dying.
Jack Nevelin fell with a bullet in his
left breast, one in the arm and one
finger shot off. He is now unconscious
and can not live. officer Stuart re-
ceived a ball in his leg. All the parties
implicated, of which there are about
II, are of prominent families.

THOUGHT he WAS THE sTRANoLER
A Denver Woman Had TussIc With an
Angry Italian.

Denver, Nov. 18Th. Moller, an Ital-
ian, entered the house of Marie Ventres
at 1880 Twentieth street, near Market,
about midnight last night and soon be-
came engaged in a quarrel with the wo-
man, and, without the least warning,
caught her by the throat He pressed
his thumbs tightly upon her windpipe
and squeezed so hard that the woman
was not able to utter sound. She i'm
agined the man engaged in choking her
was the one who had strangled Louisa
Taper Maria Contassoit and Kiku
Oyama. She is a woman of great ply
steal strength, and she managed to
release herself. She screamed for help,
and when an officer arrived Moller was
trying to cut her throat with razor.
Chief of Police Armstrong and the po-
lice generally think that Moller is moth
ing more than an ill-tempered Italian.
The detectives are not enthusiastic in
the idea that their prisoner is the man
who strangled three women recently.

MUST PLEAD TO INDICTMENTS.
Sugar Trust People Have Evaded the Is.
sue Long Enough.

Washington, Nov. 19.-District At
torney Burney has notified all persons
indicted for refusing to answer ques-
tions before the senate sugar investi-
eating committee, Including Messrs.
Havemeyer and Searles. that they must
appear and plead or demur to the in
dictments. 1t is said that demurrers
will be filed. Burney was asked if the
demurrers would not be the same as
in the cases of Mccartney and Chap
man and he said that some new points
could be presented because different
questions were asked the witnesses,
Messrs. Havemeyer and Searles being
asked as to the amounts of money con-
tributed, while the newspapermen were
asked where they got the information
on which their articles were based.
Judge Wilson, attorney for Mccartney
and Chapman, has notified Mr.. Burney
that a petition for an appeal from
Judge Coles decision will be filed to-
morrow in the court of appeals.

WITHDRAWALS OF YELLOW METAL
Gold Taken From the Treasury of the
United States

Gold Taken From the Treasury of the
United States.
Washington, Nov. 17.-Today's with
drawals of gold from the sub-treasury
in New York, presumably to buy bonds
from the United States, amounted to
1927, 900. against $975, 900 withdrawn yes
terday
The cash balance in the treasury to-
day was $101, 1924, 610; gold reserve, $751;
S32, 239.
The amount of national bank notes
received for redemption at the treasury
during the week was $1,511, 1896. The de-
posits received to retire national bank
notes was $4O5, 400, leaving a balance
of such deposits on the books of the
treasury of $29, 502,O54.
TREASURY MATTERS.
The annual report of Supervising Spe-
cial Agent ]. G. Crowley has been sub
mitted to the secretary of the treasury,
and shows as a partial result of the
work of the special agents that 1876
suits were brought, involving over SI41,-
900 in value for vilation or the revenue
laws. Referring to the trials at Port
land during the summer and fall of
1893, Crowley states in all about 40 per-
sons were indicted for conspiracy to
Illegally import Chinese iaborers and to
smuggle opium. He states that the fact
was established that more than $500
Chinese laborers and $4,000 pounds of
opium had been struggled into Port
land, Oregon, from British Columbia,
i'm a period of less than IL months, and
that seven of the principal smugglers
pleaded guilty and three others were
convicted. The supervising agent re-
ports that Chinese 1aundrymen who de-
sire to leave the United States and to
return invest small sums in the bust
ness of dealers in Chinese groceries or
other merchandise, thereby establish
ing claim to consideration as merch-
ants. AS a result of this practice much
difficulty was experienced during the
last year in enforcing the law relating
to the exclusion of Chinese, of whom
6,84O made application for admission,
and of that number 1,241 were rejected.
One thousand one hundrd and ninety
six 'laborers were permitted to pass in
transit through the country, their des-
tination in most cases being Havana.
Crowley is of the opinion that the
treaty lately entered into with China,
which provides for the return to this
GUILTY. VI (AlAlSe ldpOIeIS, VIII, IL. rat
| flied, greatly increase the work of the
special officers, and it is certain that
the number of applicants for admis-
sion will exceed that of any year since
the passage of the first exclusion law OF
1882.
In speaking of the territory of Alaska
the supervising agent expresses the
opinion that similar laws to those pro-
vided by the government of other ter
ritories should be enacted for Alaska

ENGINEER BALkED THE ROBBERS.
Unsuccessful Attempt 10 Hold Up pas.
senger Train in Mississippi.

Memphis, Tenn, Nov. 1S.-Shortly af-
ter midnight Saturday an attempt to
hold up passenger train No. 5, on the
Yazoo & Mississippi Valley road, at
Panther Run, Miss, was baked by the
GOODNESS of Engineer Kooner. Panther
Run is a small way station. Soon after
nightfall, half a dozen men entered the
hamlet and hung around for an hour or
two. Then they disappeared and were
not seen again until the train had
stopped and was starting out, when one
of them appeared on the track ahead,
signaling the engineer to stop. Kooner
pulled out the throttle and sent the
train through. AS it passed the signal
light, half dozen unmasked men stood
there, revolvers in hand, and all took
shot at the locomotive cab. Fireman
Cole received a bullet through the arm
and is seriously wounded. The men
were evidently new at the business.
The railway officials are exerting them
selves to apprehend the would-be rob-
bers.

Candidates Already Stirring Up
Their Friends.
HON. WILLIS SWEETS CHANCES
IT Shoup and Hepburn withdraw He
VIII 90 tn. but There May BE
Fight for the Place.

Boise, Idaho, Nov. 1S.-The senatorial
question is now beginning to attract
attention. Congressman Sweet and
Congressman-elect Wilson are in con-
sultation at Blackfoot, presumably
over this matter. Senator Shoup has
been expected here for some days and
it has been stated that he joined the
party at Blackfoot, though this is de-
MED by some who should know The
idea has been that if Shoup and Hey
burn should both withdraw II would
leave clear field for Sweet, and 1t
has been understood that pressure
would be brought upon them to do so.
Dubois and Wilson are both under
stood to favor Sweet on the ground
that he has developed the greatest home
strength. Dubois wants a man from due
north because of the effect it would have
on his own campaign two years hence.
Sweet was not his personal choice, but
Hepburn. The failure of the latter,
however, to get his home delegation
caused Dubois, according to his friends,
to transfer his support to Sweet. Not
withstanding this, Sweets opponents
insist that he can be beaten If Shoup
and Hepburn remain in the field and
they further insist that those gentle
men will continue in the fight. If the
fight be made the anti-Sweet combina-
ton will have the active and powerful
support of Governor Mcconnell. While
the latter's home county is pledged
to Sweet under the anti-convention ar
rangement, the governor is free to fight
Sweet on the outside with all the weap-
ons at hand. Neither Hepburn nor
ShOup has been heard from since cleo
ton but a declaration is looked for
any day from one or both of them and
the Blackfoot conference, believed TO
bear upon the point of their candidacy,
| makes the subject one of pressing inter
est just at this moment
singular feature of the situation
is a persistent rumor that Charles Bunt-
ing the Blaclxfoot banker, who has lust
been elected state treasurer, will enter
the senatorial contest. This has not
been believed by republicans, but il
1t should prove true, it would complicate
matters beautifully. He comes from
Senator Dubois town and his entry
into this contest might put new face
on the political situation.
HAGAN is FOR SWEET.
Judge Albert Hagan of Occur d'Alene
City. was in Spokane yesterday on his
way to Moscow. II do not expect to
see any opposition to Willis Sweets
election to the United States senate"
the judge said last evening. Sweet has
earned the place, and he is entitled
/ to it. He made hard fight his friends
have been elected, and he goes in, And
it has been a clean, conservative fight,
too. l don't believe he has made an
| enemy, even among the democrats and
| populists, during the whole campaign"

Australian Wool Sales.

London, Nov. 16.-Cable advices from
Melbourne, dated today say the wool
auction sales there are progressing
firmly. The competition, both British
and continental, is active, excepting
French, which is sluggish. The Ameri-
can demand has been good since open
ing of the sales. Seedy and bury
growths are slightly weaker, but other
sorts are unchanged. The total number
Of bales catalogued for sale throughout
Australia up to date is $4,000, of which
%, 900 have been sold.

Paris, Nov. 17.-France publishes an

from the war office. Schoenbreck and
Won Cassel, Germans, arrested upon
suspicion of being engaged in the ex-
tensivc espionage conspiracy, both de-
MED being concerned in any conspiracy.
