The Relief OF the Kearsarre,. Crew.

WAsHINGToN Cry. Feb. 10-The navy
department IS in correspondence with the
New York agents of the City of Para,
which has gone after the ships company
of the kearsarge. The department be-
lieves relief reached the shipwrecked COM
pany today. and that they will be back in
Colon tomorrow. The possible danger to
the men on Roneador bank has been
greater than was thought wise TO admit.
The fact of the ships fresh water supply
having been lost was also serious phase
of the situation. There is a well on Rom
cador bank. but the water is very brackish.
II is supposed the cruiser Marblehead will
succeed the kesrsarge as flagship of the
North Atlantic squadron while the pres
ence of the New York is demanded In
southern waters.

The Argentine Brazil Boundary Dispute
WASHINGTON CRY, Feb. l0.-The docu-
ments IN the boundary dispute between
Brazil and Argentine. which have been re-
ferred to President Cleveland for arbitra-
ton. were presented to the president this
morning by the representatives of each
country. No ceremony was observed. but
the occasion was made impressive. The
Argentine minister. DIR. Zebailos. is also
the head of q special mission on this sub
ject appointed by his government, owing
TO his thorough knowledge OF the ques-
tons at issue. He was the first to
cali, about IL o'clock. accompanied
by the secretary Of the spe-
cial mission and servants carrying
voluminous records. Baron de Rio Branco,
the Brazilian envoy on this special mis-
sion. came about 12 O'Clock, accompanied
by Minister Mendonca ard an extensive
suite. The cause in dispute grows out of
the disappearance of river which at one
time marked part of the boundary line
between Brazil and Argentine. The prob
lem to solve is to decide on the location OF
this old river and so fix the boundary line.
The appearance of the papers indicates
that settlement of the question will re-.
quire many months.

Washington, May &c. w. Buttz,
who was very anxious yesterday to be
represented before the senate bribery in

VIXEN the committee met to-day. Instead
he sent his attorney to explain that he
was otherwise engaged and asked to be,

On being questioned by the committee as

The explanation was far from salts

hat Mr.. Buttz was the nan wanted, and
lot a substitute. Accordingly they called
the sergeant-at-arms to their assistance,
and directed that a subpoena be issued
Tor Buttz. While waiting the committee
called in several senators, including
Messrs. Voorhees,, Harris and Coke, to
whom Senators Hunton and Kyle had
stated they had given information of the
approaches made to themselves soon after
Buttz had first made his proposition to
them. They confirmed the statements of
Messrs. Hunton and Kyle. When asked
if they knew of other attempts to bride
| senator's. Messrs. Voorhees,, Harris and
Coke said they did not.
The sergeant-at-arms reported to the
committee that he had failed to find MI.
Buttz. He, however, had ascertained
| that Maj. Buttz had left the city on an
early train with the expectation of re-
turning by . o'clock. at which time he
had stated he would again appear be-
fore the committee to continue his testi-
mony. Both Buttzs attorney and his
boarding house keeper assured the SELL
ate officials that he had stated that he
was only going to a suburban town, the
name of which he did not give, and that
the purpose of his sudden departure was
to find a man to corroborate his state
ment made before the committee yester"
