 Whereas, The proposition submit ted by the Oriental Steamship com pany through MT. s. Asano, with re- gard to the raising of guarantee of freight from this section, contains a provision which is at variance with the understanding that has prevailed in previous negotiations, a provision whereby San Diego is deprived of the advantage of being the only port to be touched on the American coast, and
 Whereas, The said provision will destroy a large element of value of the line to the commerce of this section therefore, be it
 Resolved, As the sentiment of the joint committee representing the chamber of commerce of Los Angeles and the chamber of commerce of San Diego, to whom this matter has been referred for consideration by these re- spective bodies, that the said proposi- tion of the Oriental Steamship com pany cannot be accepted in its pres | ent form and is reSDectfllllv referred 1 back to the company, with the prom ise of friendly cooperation and in- terest in any line which they may es- tablish between Japan and the Pacific coast" ...

RETALIATION.
Ex-Senator Martin Advises Employe
 to Apparently Acquiesce.

TOPEKA, Kan, Aug. 2S.-At the recent free silver rally in Topeka, one of the speakers was ex-Senator John Martin. His address was particularly directed to the railroad employees, of which Topeka has many hundreds. Below is given an extract of this ad- dress. as taken by a stenographer pres ent:
 '"There is an attempt in Topeka to bulldoze and browbeat the employees of corporations into voting for the gold standard. AS compared to this, the bulldozing and browbeating practiced in some of the southern states becomes respectable I say to the railroad men, take the money they offer you. Sign their Mckinley rolls for the sake of yourselves and families, but when cleo tion day comes go into the booth and no one will see you. There cast your votes according to the dictates of your conscience"

The Stewart Killed and
 Mate Injured.
The Dangers and Terrors of
 the Sea.
Demand of Wages Refused-RaRe Strife, injury and Death, Suc-
 ceed Each Other.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2S.-AIdispatch to Tine World from Boston says: The crew of the Portland brig Henry B. Cleaves mutinied in the harbor of St. Johns, Porto Rico, attacked the cap- tain, overpowered the mate and about killed him and inflicted injuries on the steward which caused his death. The steward, Antonio F. Berra, was struck over the head by a ibelaying pin and thrown headforemost into the hold. In wantonness the murder compares with the triple murder on the Herbert Fuller. The Cleaves sailed from Bal timore June 5, coal laden for Porto Rico. She was commanded by Captain Thomas c. Wallace, Mate Chris San ner, and carried a crew of four col ored men, shipped at Baltimore, and Steward Berra When St. Johns was reached the crew had behaved badly and carried things their own way in port.
 On Sunday, July 12, they came aboard and one of them named Will liams demanded his wages from the captain, which was refused The other three went forward, quarrelling with the steward and the mate told them to stop their noise. Williams hit the mate when his back was turned and knocked him to the deck on the hatch. way.
 Mate Sanner says: "It was his evi- dent intention to throw me down the hatehway. Three men jumped on me and one rushed at the captain, seizing him by the throat. The steward ran to aid me and then Williams struck him with belaying pin. They threw him down the hatchway. I managed to struggle to my feet, threw cask at one of them, breaking his head, and then fired a shot from my revolver to secure aid, and the fight was over. Ber- ra died a few days later The crew was arraigned and the SpaniAh author ities wanted to string them up, but the consul interfered and told us he would send them to the states" The whereabouts of the crew is not known to the local United States au- thorities and no advices have been re- ceived from Washington beyond the statements forwarded by the consul.

one who sees a fat job in the future if the thing wins, one who shuts his eyes while somebody slips from 50 cents to 45 cents in his hand for his vote, one who has no more stamina, no more principle, no more sef-respect than to be bribed to commit any crime. This may be a little harsh, but it is true to the letter."
 At once the Democratic campaign committee had thousands of copies printed and circulated everywhere. Such panic as never before seized the Republicans. A nasty council was at once called, and a circular was is sued to the voters denouncing the ed itorial But the work was done.
 C. c. Harner, the writer of the arti- cle, was bounced and the editorial de partment was turned over to the for mer editor. Hammer previously edited a Democratic newspaper and was one of the converts to the gold standard.

Trouble at Zanzibar Ended and the
 Usurper Ousted.

ZANZIBAR, Aug. 28.-The crisis here is regarded as ended. The new sultan diamond Bin Said will follow the peaceful lines of his professor. It is understood that Great Britain does not intend to make any change in the existing form of government. The suggestion that the presence of the SUD- pressed usurper, Said Khalid, at the German consulate implies political intrigue is not credited. It is expected Kholid will be handed over to the Brit ish officials as soon as the German con- sul receives the necessary instructions from Berlin

The Envoy and Suite Are
 at New York.
He Is Received with HonorS
 Due His Rank.
Homage Paid the Greatest Asiatic Statesman of this or Any
 Other Age.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2S The American steamship St. Louis that left South. ampton on August 22. having on board envoy and suite, was signalled east
 The steamship arrived off quarantine ct 12 80 this afternoon and was imme- diately boarded by General Ruger, one of the government welcoming officers from the cruiser Dolphin, who extended to the Chinese stetesman, in behalf of President Cleveland, welcome to the United States.
 The Chinese party was received at the pier by guard of honor of marines, infantry and an mmense crowd, which was with difficulty kept back from the approaches by the police. The Chinese sta adard was hauled down from the American line steamer, as the Chinese am baseador larded on the wharf and seated himself in the carriage with General Ruger. In the next carriage were Tao Tai Lii, Major Vonhannek and mem Der of the staff of General Ruger. In the third carriage were Lord Lii and wife, Loh Geng, Luh and another staff officer. After them came carriages con- taining the Chinese minister, Chinese counsel and their suites, each accom-. l panied by staff of officers. The car risqes were preceded by a detachment of the Sixth cavalry. Another detech- ment bringing up the rear. A detach- ment of mounted police headed the pro. cession, wbich moved away amid loud cheering. The route of procession was guarded by police and was densely packed with spectators, Bunting was displayed on all sides, the Chinese | standard being seen everywhere.
 Beneath the stars and stripes on the | broad bay at the mouth of the Atlantic and amid the believing of artillery, the greatest republic on earth today bade welcome to the greatest and grandest Asiatic statesman of this or any pre- ceding century. It is but few months since Li Hung Chang was officially de- capitated and in imminent danger of bodily decapitation at the behest of powers about the court that saw in his answering loyalty to his country, in his rugged, fearless honesty. in his op- | position to and detestation of the machin ations and wheels within wheels that promoted personal ends a the ex- pense of demoralization of the empire and in recognition of these and other characteristics the masses, constant menace 10 their own security.
 The United States dispatch boat Dolphin was in waiting, and after the distinguished visitor had been welcomed by first assistant secretary of state W. i w. Rockhill. he was assisted down the gang plank to the boat. Only the m ost important membe of his suite accom- panied him. Cannon were fired and the crowds on the miscellaneous fleet cheered heartily as the boat proceeded up to the pier. On disembsrkins the distinguished visitor was again well comed by Major General Thomas H. Ruger, U. s. A., commanding the de- parfment of the east. and who had been designated by the president to act as his representative.

 me present Republican congress has shown not only by word, but by deed, the sincerity and earnestness of its purpose, and we are especially gret- flied with the legislation enacted in the interests of the increased coinage of silver, which thereby materially adds to the volume of circulating rendered necessary by the ex- pansion of business interests through out our land, and we trust the time is not very far remote when congress can complete the good work so auspi- ciously begun by giving us free and unlimited coinage of silver"

A Gold Democrat Gets Bitter and

MARSHALL, Ill., Aug. 2S.-Quite a sensation was created here when the last edition of the Clark County Her aid, the Republican organ of the coun- ty, came out in the following editorial:
 When you see a free silverite, you see a man who would not earn a dol lar honestly if he could get it dishon- estly, one who would let his wife take in washing for living while he held down dry goods boxes, one who never owned a pair of pants without a Cleveland badge on the seat, one who will steal before he will provide for his own household, one who thinks he can ride to glory in a political band wagon,

Young Man Torn to Pieces in Water
 works Machinery

MARBLE FALLS, Texas, Aug. 2S.- Clinton Claypool one of our most worthy and popular young men, was horribly mangled in the gearing of the water works company's pumping ma chinery yesterday evening about 7 o'clock. The pump is run by water power and Mr. Claypool had gone down to oil the machinery instead of his father, who was not feeling well and who had the plant in charge. While o1ling some part, his sleeve was caught between the belt and shafting and in less than half moment he was torn to pieces. Mir. w. W. Gardner, one of his friends, was with him at the time, but in spite of every effort made he could render him no assistance in time
