nearl nine months, suffering from a vari-

porter to his brother Attorney Clarence
Ashford. and that gentleman made the
following statement:
~. Ashford having been convicted by
the military court of the offense of mis-
PRISON of treason Failure to disclose his
alleged knowledge of treason committed
by others), the British government, to
whom he appealed, represented to the
Hawaiian government that the convic-
ton was rendered upon insufficient and

conviction be set aside and the sentence
founded thereon annulled. l understood
that request has not been finally an
swered by the Hawaiian government
though negotiations have been proceed
ing between the two governments upon
the topic for some months The claim
asked permission to land in Hawaii is alb
solutely false. He has never asked per
mission and never will ask, and would
not accept it."
Attorney Ashford declined to discuss
the British man of war incident, saying
that when his brother was ready to re-
turn to Honolulu he would do So At
present, however, the probability of his
early return was very remote.

oARLrsLE SAYS NO.

WASHINGTON. June 4.-The secre-
tary of the treasury has declined to
pay for gold deposited at the assay
Office at Denver by gold checks on New
York. This decision was made in re-
ply to an inquiry from the assayer in
charge at Denver, who stated that
several of the largest depositors there
preferred payment by checks on New
York rather than Chicago as hereto
fore. 1t is stated at the department
that the expressage on bullion from
Denver to Philadelphia. where it is
coined, is 1925 per $1,000. and it is not
the policy of the secretary to pay this
heavy charge and at the same time put
gold checks in the hands of depositors
where they cam be most conveniently
used in withdrawing coin from the SUBJ
treasury for export or other purposes.

CHICAGO, June A special to the
Times-Herald from jacksonville, Fla,
says:
After a thrilling voyage, during
which she was chased and fired on by
q Spanish steamer, the fihbustering
steamer Three Friends has reached
this port after landing more than 100
men and a large cargo of arms and
ammunition in Cuba. The landing was
made on the night Of May %. west
Of Trinidad on the southern coast of
Santa Clara province. The men and
ammunition were received by a strong
detachment from General La Cret'S
column, and there was not a Spaniard
in sight to interfere.
On the day of landing, May rs, oc-
CURED the most exciting incident of
the voyage. The fiHbusterer was off
the coast of Cuba. waiting for sig
mails from the shore, when a Spanish
warship hove in sight and gave chase.
HAD TO RUN.
There was nothing TO do but to run
for it, and the Three Friends stood
for the open sea, with the Spaniard in
hot chase.
Through a glass Captain Broward, in
command of the Three Friends. watch
ed the Spaniards. The warship was
evidently crowding on steam, for a
black cloud of smoke came from her
stack. In the cruisers military top,
Captain Broward saw several Span
iards taking turns at the glass.
Suddenly there came a puff of
smoke from the cruiser, and a shell
burst over the Three Friends. The
Spaniards sent shell after shell at the
flibusterer, but all went wide of the
mark.
Finally Captain Broward, who is ex-
sheriff of Duval county, and noted for
his courage, got tired of being shot at,
and decided 10 have shot at the
Spaniards. There was a 12-pound
Hotchl6iss gun mounted on the Three
Friends and this Captain Browapd
trained on the cruiser, for he saw a
great commotion on board. Several
more shots were exchanged, but mean
while the Three Friends were gaining
on the Spaniard.
GREAT CHEERS AROSE.
The engines of the filibusterers be-
haved beautifully. and the stokers
worked with great earnestness, for
there were more than 100 men on board
whose lives QepenQeQ on the speed OF
the Three Friends. Finally the fill
busterer left the cruiser As the war
ship sank below the horizon-first the
hull, then the mast and the military
top and last the Spanish f1ag-a great
cheer arose from the daring men on
the Three Friends.
That night the Three Friends cir
cled around at sea. On Friday. May
%. she again cautiously approached
the Cuban coast. About nightfall,
west of Trinidad, a rocket, the signal
agreed upon, was sent up. 1t was an
swered from the shore and six surf
boats on board and in these the men
and arms were transferred to the
shore In four hours the landing was
completed, and the Three Friends
stood for the Florida coast.
This is the third expedition the
Three Friends has landed in Cuba.
Captain Broward would give no in
formation about the Laurada save that
when she left Jacksonville she had
arms and men for Cri9a and that he
expected to soon hear of her being in
some jamaican port.

NEW YORK, June A forged S.
bill has been discovered among the
bills taken in at the Twenty-sixth ward
bank, in Brooklyn. 1t is a 81 treasury
note of the series of 1891, transformed
into SIS bill. 1t is said that the Chi
cago police have been on the lookout
for several months for persons who
pass such raised bills, but that this
is the first of the kind that has made
it's appearance in the east The skill
and time employed in making this
counterfeit, it is said by employees of
the bank would hardly be compensated
for by the So gained.
There are four changes in the bill.
The largest figure "2" at the left hand
side is made into So" Another
figure IS" takes the place of the ''2''

AMNESTY TO STRIKERS.
A Southern Pacific Order Which
VIII BE Appreciated.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 1.-THE
Southern Pacific company has granted
amnesty ITO. the strikers who refused
to work three years ago and who were
afterwards refused reinstatement by
THE company. The strikers claimed
that the road blacklisted them so that
they could not obtain employment on
any railroad in the country. Manager
J. A. Fillmore has issued an order to
the various division superiptendents
authorizing them to employ strikers
whenever vacancies existed. When a
good man applies to the railroad for
employment the fact that he pantici
pated in the big strike will not prevent
his being engaged.
