Battle with Pirates.

VANCOUVER, b. c., June 1.-THE
steamer brings news from Canton Of a
~sanguinary fight with pirates. A gang of
these gentry, who were able to master a
squadron of eight junks, planned an attack
on a walled village named Tanchi, in the
district OF Hissinning Kuangtsung. The
villagers, however, learning of their inten-
tons, procured the assistance of a number
of Yamen runners and soldiers, SO that
when the pirates arrived they were con-
fronted by a force of four or five hundred.
They were surrounded and cut off, and the
junk invaders fought desperately, but
thirty-two were killed and three captured
alive, while three of their vessels were
seized and many of the pirates drowned in
attempting TO escape to the rest Of the
squadron. Eight of the villagers were
wounded, one mortally.

Growing More turbulent.

MASSILLON. o., June 1.-THE attitude
OF the Sheroddsville miners grows more
menacing, and ten cars of soldiers are now
en- route to that place on the Wheeling &
Lake Erie road on a special train. The
miners followed the successful burning OF
two bridges at Fuller's mine by setting
fire twice TO the railway station and to
a small trestle. These fires were put out
and while this was being done the miners
started another fire under a string OF
empty box cars. They obtained lights and
caroused all night. They were defiant and
intolerant all day, and General Manager
Blair, who has not asked for protection
up to this time, made a demand late this
afternoon upon the sheriff of. Carroll
county. who in turn asked the Governor
for troops tonight For the first time
since the burning OF the Midvale bridge
the Cleveland. Lorain e. Wheeling road
began to move coal. Every train carries
a detachment of soldiers.

Outrages I'm Alabama.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, June 14.-Late last
night. near Coalburg. a mob of armed
strikers attempted to set fire to the Georgia
Pacific bridge. and were fired upon by
guards and driven off. A few minutes later
the mob went 70 another bridge. three hum
dred yards away, saturated IL with oil and
applied the torch within sight of the guards.
The fire was extinguished before the bridge
was entirely destroyed. On the same road
near Parrish another mob was found plac-
Ing dynamite under the foundations of a
bridge to blow IT up, when the guards
opened fire on them, driving them off. AS

CASTLEBAR ISLAND, Ireland, June IA.
"A dispatch from Westport Quay, about
eleven miles from this city. announces a
disaster to a party of harvesters who were
on their way to Scotland. A passenger
boat returning to Westport Quay from
Ach island, having on board eighty har-
vesters who were shipped to Scotland and
Westport, capsized and thirty-ive lives
were lost. The boat capsized off Armagh
head.
Up to midnight the bodies of thirty Of
the harvesters had been recovered. All the
victims were young people. and were of
both sexes. They were inhabitants Of
Achill island, and depended for a livelihood
upon the scanty earnings they could make
in England and Scotland, to which coun-
tries they were accustomed to migrate
every year. The boat which capsized to-
day was much overcrowded, the people. in
their haste to catch the Glasgow boat from
Westport, having little regard for their
safety. One hundred and ten persons were
in the vessel when she went down. The
disaster was due to an attempt to turn the
boat without lowering sail. Most of the
victims were kept under water by the
sails, which were fully set when the vessel
went over. AS soon as the accident hap
pened boats from the steamer Elm, lying
near, put out to the rescue, and seventy
FIVE of the harvesters were taken out Of
scious, but revived after restoratives had
been administered. 1t Is believed that the
bodies of the few persons missing will be
found in the hold Of the Inflated vessel.

PrinceIy "suspectsv Removed.

LONDON, June IA dispatch from
Tangier says that it is reported that the
chief princes of Morocco who were likely
to cause trouble to the new regime have
been removed from their commands in the
army. Some Of them have been sent to
distant provinces, while others nave been
imprisoned. The dispatch adds that it has
transpired that in his political testament
the late Sultan directed that a council of
regency be appointed until his young son,
Abdul AZiz, the present Sultan, attains
his majority.
DR.. Avilo. who for a long time was
physician to the late Sultan of Morocco,
in an interview at Madrid to-day declared
that the new Sultan. Abdul Aziz. would
certainly decline to fulfill the treaty with
Spain arising out Of the Melilla affair. The
death of the Sultan would be a signal
for bloodshed and vengeance in Morocco
city. Murder and pillage were already rife,
and the Jews, knowing from experience
that they will be a special object of attack,
were hiding themselves and their treasures.

PoLLARD-BREcKENRIDGE.
Attorney Carlisle Argues For the
Plaintiff.

Washington, April 9.-In the Breck-

nounced his decision on the prayers for
instructions. Nine of the prapers for
plaintiff were granted in a modified
form and five were refused. Six pray
ers for defendant were granted in a
modified form and five We're refused.
incidentally, Judge Bradley said that
while the burden of proof rested on
Plaintiff to show that the contract to
marry was entered into, if defendant
set up that contract was not made in
good faith, the burden of proof would
rest upon him to show there was an
understanding to that effect.
Attorney Carlisle opened the argu-
ment for plaintiff.
Attorney Carlisle who is more deep
ly versed in international law than in
breach Of promise ltigations, consum-
ed the day in the criminal court with
q review of the testimony before the
jury in the Pollard breckenridge case,
his statement was a detailed review of
all the evidence, and was delivered in
clear, dispassionate manner, although
at times the lawyer referred to Col.
breckenridge in very scathing, but
coolly worded terms. The silver-haired
congressman conducted himself very
nonchalantly, chatting with his law
yers during the day. while Madeline
Pollard sat directly in front of him,
keeping her face shaded by her black
gloved hand most of the time. Only
once was there any interruption, and
that was when Col. Breckenridge set
the speaker right upon a point of FAM
lily title, about which he seemed to be |
very particular. Carlisle will continue |
and it is not improbable that
the speaking will last till Friday

ENGLAND AND THE KEARsARGR
Why the Vessel Won Her Great Com
bat With the Rebel Commerce
DESTROYER.

The old Kearsarge. which sunk the
Alabama, has herself come to violent
end. She was wrecked in the Carib-
bean sea, happily without loss OF life.
1t is all but 80 years since she fought
her greet fight Off Cherbourg, so she
has kept the seas a long time. She de-
served an honored place on the retired
list Of the American navy, for she had
claims on national gratitude only Sec
ond to those Of the constitution, says
the Lc,idon Daily News. Her fight
with the Alabama was duel conduct
ed very much on the model of the old
personal contests in the age Of chiv-
airy. After a hot pursuit She had at
last cornered the confederate cruiser
which had wrought so much ruin to
American commerce, and 1t was well
understood that pursuer or pursued
must perish. She watched the mouth
OF Cherbourg harbor, which her enemy
was under short notice to leave and
the fight was inevitable. The steamers
In port came out to see II, and some of
them carried excursion parties from
Paris. The Kearsarge won by superior
artillery, superi0r discipline, superior
patriotism. Her crew had O. nObler idea
TO fight for than the medley of mer-
cenaries that crowded the prlvateer.
These were desperate gang. and they
had given their officers endless trouble
before the Kearsarge took the reforma-
ton OF their manners in hand. As the
Alabama steamed out OF the harbor at
10 o'clock on Sunday morning, June 10,
she found her antagonist waiting for
her, and the two approached each
ether In eyer-narrowing circles firing
all the time The Kearsarge was bet
ter prepared for defense, as well as for
attack. Her commander had roughly
ormored her In the most vulnerable
parts by laying all his spare chain
cables In folds over the sides. The Ala
bama opened fire at a distance OF about
a mile, and when the ships had made
seven complete circles, she suddenly
turned and headed for the land. She
was sinking, for both shot and shell
had reached her with fearful effects on
ship and crew. A. British yacht, the
I)eerhound, which had come out to see
the fight. came up in time to save
about 40 Of the crew as they jumped
for their lives The last shot was fired
as she went down. II was a glorious
Victory. We can say So with a clear
conscience now, as the Daily News was
lmong the few metropolitan journals
hat said 50 when It was won.

SENATOR HILLS SPEECH
The Tariff Debate Under Full
Headway.
FINAL VOTE SET FOR JUNE 7.
The Income Tax Amendment Bit
terly Attacked by the
New York Senator.
Associated Press.

Associated Press.
Washington, April 9.-The secont
week of the tariff debate opened today
Allen, populist, of Nebraska, Offered
a resolution closing general debate OF
the tariff June 4, at o'clock, and the
final vote June 7. at 2 O'clock.
Senator Hill then addressed the sen.
ate.
The speech of Senator Hill was
chiefly devoted to an extensive and bit.
ter attack on the income tax feature
of the Wilson bill. Referring to the
foreign policy of the administration, he
said; our foreign policy, especially
that relating to Hawaii, has not met
the expectations of the people. 1t was
a natural consequence, however, re-
sulting from the placing of the depart
ment Of state in charge of republican
statesmen. In other respects the pres
ent administration affords scant
grounds for just criticism"
Coming to the question of tariff re-
form, he said it should be approached
with a realizing sense of the changed
condition of the country since 1888 and
1890, What was safe and wise then it
would be criminal folly to attempt now
in the face of the paralysis in general
business, as the treasury deficit at
tests. The present bill sought to double
the deficit by discarding the customs
revenue, and to fill the void by an in
come tax. He protested against the
democratic party being made a tail to
the populist kite. For my part, as a
democrat, he said, Il prefer indirect
taxation and tariff reform above direct
taxes and tariff extinction. 1 prefer
taxing foreign products rather than
home products.
Il stand ready to support any rea-
sonable measure for tariff reform. /
will cheerfully vote for tht Mills bill
md join you in making any material
of duties therein. l am
'eady to waive all minor reference of
letails which do not involve questions
'f principles. Mr.. President, this is an
important crisis in the history of the
party. Failure of tariff re-
'ision means defeat of democratic po-
ition, If not humiliation of our party.
borrower it means injury to the best
interests OF the country. Let those
Who insist on injecting into this bill
he odious and undemocratic principle
f income tax pause and reflect upon
he possible consequences of their de-
lands"

City of Topeka, which arrived here this
evening from Alaskan ports, brings
news of impending trouble over the

are expected. ~s
