The Indiana Proves to Be an Uncom-
monty Steady VESSEL
Boston, Oct. 1.-THE battleship In
diana, which left Cramps shipyard on
Saturday for her official trial trip,
dropped anchor off Boston.
Commodore Selfridge, after reading a
report sent to him by the members Of
the trial board who came around Oh the
ship, telegraphed the secretary of the
navy that the Indiana behaved ad-
mirably upon the voyage from Phila-
delphia Latter, in all interview, he
said:
"They bring me very gratifying news
regarding the steadiness of the new bat
tleship. With her heavy armor and
armament, it was naturally expected.
Judging from the experience of other
countries with their modern battle
ships, that we would have considerable
roll to contend with. One of England's
battleships is said to have rolled 10
degrees, whereas the Indiana does not
record roll Of even one degree. This
gives her an almost stationary gun
platform, condition very much to be
desired when the guns are used in ac-

DEMANDS OF SEALERS.

Said They Will Play Part in the Set
tlenlent of the Venezuela Question.
ST. PAUL, Oct. ia special to the
Dispatch from Washington says: Less
than week ago it was stated in these
dispatches that Sir Julian Pauncefote,
the British ambassador, would insist on
an early convention to assess damages
i'll the case of the Canadian sealers who
make claims against the United States
for alleged seizure Of vessels in the
waters Of Behring sea prior to
the award of the Paris tribunal.
That statement is verified by an official
visit by the English minister to Secre-
tary of State Olney, at which the terms
and procedure of the convention as well
as its date Of assembling was considered.
While the officials at the state depart
ment are extremely reticent about what
was agreed upon, and the attaches Of
the British legation refuse to say any
thing, it may be taken for granted:
First, that until the convention as
sembles and takes action there will be no
consideration by the British government
of the proposed arbitration of the Ven
ezuelan boundary; and second, if the
convention fails to come to some agree
ment satisfactory to the govern
ment of her majesty there will
be open interference with the surveys
and examination now under way in
Nicaragua by United States engineers
with view to building the great canal.
It is difficult to see how trouble is to be
avoided, unless the administration con-
cedes much to England.

PRICE FIVE CENTS
THEY MUST NOT MEET.

Corbett and Fitz Cannot Even Spar With
the Softest of Gloves.
LITTLE Rock, Ark, Oct. 17.-That
Governor Clarke is of the determination
to stop the Corbett- -Fitzsimmons contest
at any cost was emphasized during the
day by the presence in this city of Cen
eral Taylor Of Forest City, brigadier
general Of the Arkansas state guard,
who was summoned to the capital to
confer with the governor regarding the
strength of the state militia. General
Taylor was in conference With Governor
Clarke for al hour, and when seen
later by q reporter was preparing to
take the afternoon train for Hot
Springs. General Taylor said positively
that the fight would not occur. His
purpose in going to Hot Springs, he
said, was to warn the people there
against the danger to which they would
subject themselves should any attempt
be made to bring the contest off. The
state guard, General Taylor said, was
in good condition and amply sufficient
to cope with the case in hand. He
could, he said, with Il few hours notice,

The Governor Very Positive.
Governor Clarke when questioned by
an Associated Press representative in
reference to his consultation with Gen
eral Taylor was not disposed to talk.

gested the reporter, "that Corbett and
Fitzsimmons should desire to give an
exhibition Of physical culture i'll Hot
Springs OH Oct. 81, i'll which large, soft
gloves We're to be used, would that also
be stopped by military force::"
"Corbett and Fitzsimmons shall not
meet in Hot Springs in any kind Of a
contest" said Governor Clarke, eni-
phatically. If they ever meet, they
will fight, and they shall not fight in
Arkansas. They shall not meet i'll Hot
Springs either in Or out Of Il ring. They
shall not even shake hands,
When asked if Corbett would be ar
rested upon his arrival at Hot Springs,
Governor Clarke said that a good gen
eral never disclosed plans to the enemy

awaits the signature Of the sultan.
The scheme is almost identical with the
proposals of last May, which. in sub
stance We're that the governors and
vice governors Of Van, Erzeroum, Sivas,
Bitlis, Khartut and Trebizond be Chris
tian or Mussulman, according to the in
clination Of the population, but either
the governor OF the vice governor is to
be a Christian, and the appointments
are to be confirmed by the powers:
Some Of the Reforms.
Local and not state officials are to
collect the taxes, and enough money is
to be retained before it is forwarded to
Constantinople, to pay the expenses of
local administration. Complete changes
will be made in the judicial system,
torture will be abolished, the prisons
will be under surveillance, the police
will be composed of Christians and
Turks, equally, and the laws against
compulsory conversions to Islamism will
be strictly enforced.
The ambassadors Of the powers ex-
| pect that the whole question will be
finally settled during the course of the
week, by the PRONUNCIATION Of an i'm.
perial degree. Contrary to general ex.
pectation, the high commissioner, who
will be charged with the execution Of
this scheme Of reform, will be Chris
tian. This was the hardest pill for the
porte to swallow, and for long time il
threatened to bring about the most Sc
rious complications.

The Pope Does Not Take Kindly to Re-

The Pope Does Not Take Kindly to Re-
lisious Congresses.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 17.-Pope Leo
has written all important letter to the
Catholic hierarchy Of America con-
demning the assemblage of congresses
of religion. The letter has been deliv-
cred to Archbishop Ryan of this city
and to all other archbishops. It was the
main subject considered at the recent
assembling of the archbishops at Wash
ington, but the efforts at secrecy We're
successful in keeping the pope's letter
from publicity. What steps the arch
bishops took cannot be learned, but
with the views Of the pope thus clearly
expressed it is doubtless that the Amer
lcan church will anathematize the con.
crosses Of religion in the same way that
an introduction was placed on Catholic
participation in the knights of Pythias,
Odd Fellows and other sececret societies.
The congress of religions held at Chi
cago, as a feature of the Worlds Fair,
was the most notable gathering of that
character in recent years, bringing to-
gether not only the many sects Of Chris
tianity, but also Hindoos, Brahmins,
Buddhists and the Theosophists. The
gathering was so notable that it's pro-
jectors have expected it would lead to
further congresses, merging all sects
and creeds.
Whether Pope Leo's disapproval is
particularly in reference to the Chicago
congress cannot be learned, but as it was
the last and by far the most conspicu-
GUS gathering Of the kind. the letter
will be viewed with special reference
to it.

VOICE OF TIE PRESS.

The Hawaiian fake is a peren-
NAL blossom and it appears to be
as vigorous in February as in mid
summer. The latest specimen is
the absurd report that Admiral
Beardslee has made the first move
toward a protectOrate by detailing
a corps of officers to take possession
of Pearl harbor. This alleged news
bears all the earmarks of local
manufacture, and the man who
evolved it from his inner consci-
business had evidently made no
close study of the ADMINISTRATORS
Hawaiian policy. To establish u
protectorate, after all that Cleve-
land has done for Kanaka royalty,
would be a larger sized dish oil crow
than even his strong stomach could
endure.-S F Chronicle.

The Brooklyn trolley system
strike has gone the way of all sim-
liar movements. After nearly
month of contention during which
the public has been seriously in
convenienced and exposed to mob
violence, the strikers come to terms
and beg to be reinstated in their
former positions. The results 80
far as the object of the strikers is
concerned, are a minus quantity.
Possibly it has not been without
its benefits in demonstrating to the
working men of Brooklyn how
futile are strikes wherein irrespon-
sible mobs are created to oppose
the action of corporations. The
workingmen of America are unfor-
tunate in having class of leaders
who are forever bringing them to
defeat. The misguided laborer
who can i'll afford the loss of
even a weeks wages finds himself
during the hard winter months
thrown out of employment and far
more at the mercy of soulless cor
porations than he was at the out
set. When labor organizations
come to their senses and take
of business methods to
obtain their ends, they may ulti-
mately improve the condition of
the working people.

TIE BIGGEST FAKE YET.

The San Francisco Call has laid
itself open to ridicule by giving
publicity to the most foolish, hair
Drained fake that has thus far
graced it's treatment of the recent
uprising in this country. The tor
lures of the inquisition are as
nothing compared to the treatment
Captain Davies ia credited with re-
ceiving at the hands OF the da-
Waiian Government officials. Such
things are exasperating, though
they are so completely without
foundation that no person of aver
age common sense would give
them credence. 1t is nevertheless
true that a lie travels with much
greater rapidity than the truth
among a class of people to whose
morbid tastes yarns similar to that
given in the Call cater. For q
straight out-and-out lie this tor
ture story takes the palm. The
captain will undoubtedly appear In
San Francisco in person sooner or
later, and we would suggest that
the Call deputize a commission OF
reporters and physicians to make
physical examination and find the
evidences of that gentleman being
put on the rack, stoud on his head
and tied up by the thumbs for
hours. Certainly no man could 60
through such an ordeal without
bearing some marks of the fray.
We do not anticipate that the
article was written by any CORE
spondent in this country, and
while the Call is in the business it
might sell more papers if the edl-
tor should assign some bright
imaginative reporter to write three |
columns on chow President Dole, or
some other man of giant stature, took
Nowlein and Bertelmann by the
heels and swung them as Indian
clubs until they confessed their
of the rebellion" There
would be just as much sense in it
as there is in this last effusion that
comes to notice.

ExILEs' CLAIM FOR DAMAGES.

Any British or American courts
In which the exiIed Cranstoun.
tombstone and Muller shall seek
redress for. their expulsion from
Hawaii, viii find ample precedents
in the judicial decisions of their
own countries for refusing to enter
tain such claims. The "exiled"
have started in, 1t is reported, with
an action for damages against the
captain aud owners of the ship in
which they went to Vancouver.
The defense of such an action Is
plain, on the fact that all the cap
tain did was to consent to the Ha-
waiian Government placing these
passengers on board his ship. He
then sailed for his port of destina-
ton, using no compulsion to pre-
vent the exiles from leaving his
ship, or to force them to go In his
ship.
If the captain were regarded as
an agent of the Hawaiian Govern
ment, his defense would be that he
acted by the authority of Sover-
eign State, which was exercising
its prerogative rights during the ex-
istence of martial law, in expelling
from its territory any persons whom
it considered TO be dangerous to the
community or to the State. No
civilized State will care to take the
ground that such a course is not
allowed by the law of nations, for
if it were not, what would become
