Boston, Aug. 10.-The nude bronze
statue Of bacchante or priestess Of
Bacchus, the work Of Frederick Nc
Monies, the famous sculptor, destined
as a gift to the Boston public library
by the architect, Charles f. Mckim,
arrived in New York last week from
Paris, and is now stored in the offices
Of MoKim, Meade & White. No SOON

tanical modesty went up in Bean
town., and Miss Bluestocking covered
her eyes and declared that she would
not accept an immodest gift.
The figure is about life size, and
represents a girl laughing as she trips
along, at a baby, who sits in the fold
of her left arm and reaches down to-.
ward bunch Of grapes which she is
dangling above the child. 1t was first
exhibited in Paris, and was so much
admired that the French government,
unable to purchase the original, or
dered a replica to be made for the gal

Astoria, Or, Aug. 10.-M. ]. Kin.
ney, in his annual trade circular, just
issued, says:
The season just about to close has
been one of the most remarkable in the
history of the salmon canning industry
on the Columbia river. Confronted
with strike at the opening of the sea-
son, and with but few fish packed un-
til June "a, it seemed at that time that
the output would of necessity fall far
short of that of any preceding year
since 1877. The abnormally heavy
runs of salmon, however, and the pro-
digious efforts of Gamers to recover the
losses sustained during the strike have
resulted in pack aggregating 70 per
cent of that for 1895. Throughout the
year salmon have been unusually large,
and in color, firmness Of flesh and
quantity of oil excelled those caught at
corresponding periods in any former
season. A noteworthy feature of the
years business was the large proper
tion of chinook salmon, the pack of
this variety representing much larger
percentage than usual Of the entire out
nut

ORR TACOMA'S MAYOR.
Declared by Judge Pritchard to Have
Been Duly Elected,

Tacoma, Aug. 10.-Edward S. Orr
was today declared by Judge Pritchard
to have been duly elected mayor of Ia
coma, by a majority of fifteen votes. ct
the election held last spring. He will
take his seat as mayor as soon as the
Judgment in the case is signed, unless
supersedeas bond is permitted to be
MED, pending an appeal to the supreme
court.
Judge Pritchard handed down his
decision on the disputed ballots at 4:3O
o'clock this afternoon. 1t covers
twenty-five pages of typewriter manu-.
script, and deals exhaustively with the
case.
A. V. Fawcett, who was, after the
official canvass, declared elected by a
majority of two over Orr, the previous
mayor, and candidate for reelection,
Will have to step down and out.
The contest case has been on trial
two weeks 1t was at its commence.
ment that it was discovered that the
vote of four precincts, that gave ma
Jorltles for Orr, had been stolen from
the city vaults. The court, however,
went ahead with the count of the other
ballots, taking the figures of the miss.
ing ballots from the returns.
The undisputed ballots gave Orr
1890 and Fawcett 1850 votes, includ.
ing the four stolen precincts, the official
returns of which were counted. -Four
disputed votes which were counted fol-
Orr, gave him total of 2,624. and
nineteen disputed votes, counted fol
Fawcett, gave him a total of 2,6O9, d
majority for Orr of fifteen votes.

London, Aug. THE Times, in an
angry article. complains of the German
semi. official press for denouncing and
abusing Lord Salisbury because he re.
fused to join in blockade Of Crete.
The Times says:
1T is not improbable that if block
ade had been started Germany would
again discover that she had no ships
available. 1t is not dignified to stand
aside and incite other nations to do
what she is not prepared to do herself.
To make Crete cockpit in which op.
posing forces might fight out their
quarrels would be most effectual
method Of producing European war
unless the powers were most complete.

NO LONGER CITIZENS.
Admission OF Negroes to Creek Nation
Declared Unconstitutional.

Admission OF Negroes to Creek Nation
Declared Unconstitutional.
Perry, o. T., Aug. l0.-The final
dercee has been promulgated from
Okmulgee, capital of the Creek nation,
as it had been handed down by Judge
Adams, chief justice of the supreme
court Of the nation, in the citizenship
case. 1t strikes from the rolls of citi-
zenship of the nation the names of over
1,700 negroes.
The decision held that the action of
the emancipation act by the United
States, in admitting the negroes to
tribal relations, was unconstitutional,
and, therefore, at this time invalid.
Since the passage Of the act these me-
groes have drawn in annuities 81 900, :
900 from the Creek government, and
have improved their farms, and have
educated their children at the nation &
expense for twenty years. From the
decision of the court there is no appeal.
The interior department has held tu
the same opinion in similar case.
The Dawes commission, which has been
appealed to by the deposed negroes,
claims it has no right to interfere with
the decision of the Indian court.

certain the ex.treasurer standing

by the county court today, corroborated
the information before published and
showed that besides the $l,577 held
back in the First National bank, there
was $741.45 wholly unaccounted for.
The experts further said the accounts
were so badly confused and the meth.
ods SO poorly adapted to the require.
ments that the Office books would have
to be rewritten for the period Of the
treasurers incumbenoy. The treas.
urer's receipts for the special school

ject to Unequal "Fines."
Astoria, Or, Aug. 1O.-There is a
strong prospect of a lively fight at an
early date over the so.called Zines"
exacted monthly from the keepers of
gambling houses in consideration of
immunity from police interference.
For the past two years, each house in
which games of chance, such as
Craps" roulette, faro and the like,
are conducted has paid the city month.
ly the sum of $50, but since the open
ing here of large saloon and sporting
house, those of the gamblers who have
only sufficient money to make a show
ing in single bank.roll have become
dissatisfied, because of the fact that the
more wealthy of their class run as high
as five or six games and they pay no
more for the privilege than do those
who conduct single crap" table. 1t
is likely that at the next meeting of the
city council steps will be taken to have
the matter adjusted in an equitable
manner.

ACROSS THE ATLANTIC.



London, Aug. Full details of the
adventurous voyage of Harvo and
Samuelsor in rowboat which reached
Scilly last Saturday are published.
HarvO says they left New York, June
6, at . P NJ. Owing to strong winds
they were driven northward to the
banks of Newfoundland, and July
they spoke the schooner Leader, and re-
quested the master to report them all
we'll.
July Z. they encountered heavy
gale from the west, and had great diff
Guilty in keeping on board, keeping one
of them bailing. The gale continued
with more or less force until 8 P. NJ,
July 10, when a heavy sea struck and
capsized the boat, throwing them into
the water. After few minutes they
succeeded in righting her and getting
on board, and bailing her out. All
their provisions, anchor, cooking uten-
sils. signal lights and several other ar
ticles which were not lashed to the
boat were lost After the accident
they suffered severely from the cold,
having to remain in their wet clothing.
Shortly after the weather moderated
and the wind continuing, they proceed.
ed eastward, July 10 they boarded
the Norwegian bark Cito, from Quebec
for Pembroke, and were supplied with
water and provisions, and again when
