MORE TROUBLE IN COREA.

Natives object 70 Being Refused Use
Of Opium
SEATTLE, Wash, Sept. 3.-Naval
Lieutenants John NJ. Hawley, E. Lloyd
and James T. Smith, lately detached
from the Government armored cruiser
Detroit. arrived in this city tonight
from Vancouver, having been passen-
gers across the Pacific on the steam
ship Empress of India. They are en-
route to their respective 'homes-Bos-
ton, Washington City and New York.
Hawley is a lieutenant commander and
was placed in command of the Detroit
upon the departure of Commander Ne
well for this city, where the latter is
now upon his deathbed. The lieutenant
commander and his brother left the
Detroit at Chemullopec, Corea.
The naval party had as a shipmate
on the voyage across the Pacific the
new Corean Minister TO the United
States. His Excellency vi PUN Chiu.
Vi proceeded from Vancouver to the
national capital. Lieutenant Hawley
learned from the Corean Minister that
there is more or less serious trouble
| brewing between the Chinese and Jap
| anese governments over the matter OF
| the use of opium in Formosa, to say
nothing of native uprisings. 1t appears
| that Japan wants to at once abolish the
us of opium, claiming that unless TINS
/ is done her subjects will contract the
habit from the natives, while by the lat
ter it is contended that an abrupt pro-
hibition of the use of the drug would
result disastrously to those who have
all their lives been addicted to the
| opium habit.

the Falkland Islands on the other
They will not take the Straits of Ma

LONDON, Sept. Bin an interview,
Captain Hunter of the British steamer
NonpareiI, from Cayenne, French Gui-
ana, is quoted as saying that Dreyfus,
captain of the French military convicts
escaped on board an American schoon-
er, and with the help of his wife, for
merly Mdlee Hadmard, the daugh-
ter of wealthy parents. Madame
Dreyfus, at the urgent request of the
prisoner, received permission from the
French government TO join her hus-
band in his place of imprisonment and
in due course of time arrived at Cay
enne well supplied with funds.
Madame Dreyfus was firm believer
in the innocence of her husband, and
when she reached Cayenne the French
authorities offered her the use of a
steam launch to take her to the Grand
SaIut islands where her husbands pris-
on was situated, but she declined, say

ing she wished to become accustomed
to the climate before going to the
island. Thereupon the steam launch
left Cayenne.
According to Capt. Hunter Madame
Dreyfus lost no time in perfecting
plans for her husbands escape, or else
she must have had assistance from
persons who had reached Cayenne
some time before her, for the same
night, he says, an American schooner
with Madame Dreyfus on board, ap-
peared off Grand SaIut island, sent a
boat ashore and brought off not only
the prisoner but several of the men
who had been detailed to guard him,
apparently proving conclusively that
everything was arranged for the escape
of Capt. Dreyfus before his wife reach

ST. PAUL, Sept. 6.-Archbishop Ire

that hereafter at the Catholic parochial

''Of course the expenses of maintain

the amount of these expenses from
