Experience Of the Revenue Cutter
Perry at Callao.
TOOK MEASURES TOPROHECr AMERICANS
Our Legation in the Range Of
Machine Guns.
PEACE AGAIN RESTORED

SAN DIEGO. Cal, April 22.-The revenue
cutter Commodore Perry arrived in port
after an eventful voyage of 100 days from
New York. Capt Smith received orders at
Acapulco to hurry to San Francisco to
outfit Tor Boring soon as possible,
and he will accordingly sail at daybreak
Tuesday morning
In an interview Capt. Smith said: I'VE
arrived at Callao March "a. Immediately
sent an officer to the American consul gen.
eral. Mr.. Jastremski, placing a gig at his
disposal. He came off in great excitement
saying that American interests were in
danger and that Americans were liable to
lose their lives unless some protection was
afforded them. He told me of the attempt
to burn the American legation at Lima.
I Immediately detailed officers, twenty-five
men and a rapid-firing gun, with thirty
rounds of ammunition, to aid Gen. Jastrem-
ski. whenever Giro dmstances should require.
The force was held in readiness to disem-
bark at a moments warning.
Scenes of Devastation.
II went to Lima and paid visit to the
American minister. Mr. Mckenzie. At
Lima there were evidences Of the fight on
every hand. The streets were Uttered with
lime to destroy the stencil made by the
bodies. and l saw about 1880 bodies of men
slain the day before. Windows were brok-
en-, houses honeycombed with bullets, many
Of them buried to the ground. and devasta-
ton and destruction to be seen everywhere.
American Legation in Peril.
1.-THE street In front Of the legation was
closed by a barricade on either side of
which had been placed the rapid firing guns
of the Caceristas and Moneteros. The shot
few like hail in the vicinity and the walls
of the American legation were pierced. Mrs.
Mckenzie had been standing near the win
dow looking out, when her husband called
her away, and as she turned a shot passed
the spot where she had been standing. HUI
man life was cheap native or foreign, and
Mr.. Mckenzie sent his wife and two other
American ladies' out of the country on the
New Orleans steamer.
Great Protection to Americans.
81 received letter from Mr.. Mckenzie,
thanking me for the protection offered the
American consul, and notifying me that in
his judgment, the provisional government
was established formally enough to prevent
further breaks. Consul General Jastremsk
also wrote me a cordial letter of thanks. in
which he intimated that the little revenue
cutter was an invaluable aid at the juno
ture in preventing harm to American inter-
ests at Callao. 1 accordingly sailed on
March 20, and reached Acapulco April g."

Intellectual Opposition to the Flames
at Duquesme.

at Duquesne.
PITTSBURG, Pa, April 22.-Almost the
entire business portion Of Duquesne bor-
ough. opposite McKeesport. on the Monon-
gahela river. was destroyed by fire Of sup
posed incendiary origin, which broke out
at am. The loss is variously estimated
at from $4,000 to $4,000.
The fire started in Peterson's grocery
store, on Railroad street, and within thir-
ty minutes had spread over the entire
block. The borough is wholly without fire
apparatus and a bucket brigade was the
only resistance to the flames.
From Railroad street the town runs back
over a hill of considerable steepness. About
the time the flames began to spread q high
wind came up and drove the fire up the
hillside. with the result that everything In
Its path was DESTROYED.

CHICAGO, April OLA special dispatch
from Indianapolis, Ind. says: Benjamin
Harrison will be the candidate of the BIZ
metallists of the United States in 1885,
This statement was made today by a re-
publican of national prominence, who had
just had talk with the ex-President. He
will be nominated by the republican con-
vention as compromise candidate" said
the speaker. THAT IS the plan of his
friends. / do not know that Gen. Harri-
son will actively seek the nomination. He
can get it without uttering a word. The
silver people of the west know his senti-
ments. and they are satisfied that he stands
for all they can hope to get in 1896.
1.-The speech which Gen. Harrison made
In Colorado February 2S. 1894, while on
his way to California, will nominate him.
1t was the first and only utterance Of the
ex-President after he had left the White

Junta In the heart of the silver mining dis
trict."
Gen. Harrison has entirely recovered

Mr.. Oinoy has not been q conspicuous

pointed. lie is now introduced with

Was there no Democrat ot prominence

President Cleveland seems fond OF
