is KING OF THE DEEP.
SwampscOtt Fishermen Capture a
Huge Sea Turtle

BOSTON Mass, Aug. IA sea turtle
weighing 1850 pounds was captured yester-
uay on Cape Cod by the crew OF the mack
erel fishing schooner Minnehaha, OF swamp
scout.
The vessel was returning from an unsuccess-
ful cruise along the cape, and when in the
vicinity of the place where the sea serpent
was reported to have been sporting TWO weeks
ago, the lockout man shouted that he had
espled whale to the leeward
The crew were not prepared to capture any
deep sea monster but they concluded to
watch the supposed whale. When they had
become convinced that it either a sea
serpent or a turtle, they concluded there was
money in his capture.
Lowering the seine boat four men jumped
in and rowed to where his majesty OF the
southern deep had bowed to Old Sol.
The monster at the sight of the boat, had
diyed, but soon he was seen to rise some dis
lance away, and the big purse seine was
made fast to anchor and paid out until
the big unknown had been enclrcIed.
Then the net was drawn in and the schooner
sgnaled to draw closer Eight men aboard
in the seine which held the monster, and it
was all they could do to land him.
When the turtle was safe on deck George
Horton brother of Capt. Horton of the
schooner. approached too closely in inspect
ing him. The big fellow stretched out his
five feet of neck and seized Horton by the left
leg.
With clubs a half-dozen sailors went to
Horizons assistance, but the turtle would not
let go his grip despite terrific beating.
When Horton pulled away he did so at the
sacrifice of one rubber boot and half pair of
trousers which the turtle digested without
difficulty.
He measured eleven feet from head to
TAIL nine feet from fipper to ripper, and
forty inches across his back while his head
at times protruded five feet. He would bel
low like cow, and then, by turn, growl like
a huge Siberian hound.
When landed at the wharf tonight crowds
soon gathered, for a report gained circulation
that the sea serpent had been captured alive
and kicking.
Two score of museum managers have been
bidding for the turtle, but the crew had at
midnight refused their offer of 81 900, holding
out for $4,000, which they are confident they
will get from some New York museum man
ager.

SPAIN ENTERS DENIAL.
No Note to the Powers Was Ever
Prepared.

MADRID, Aug; I'm the chamber of
deputies today Senior Canovas, president of
the council. denied the statement that the
Duke of Tetuan, minister of foreign affairs
had read to Hannis Taylor, the United States
minister to Spain, the proposed circular to
the powers anent the condition of affairs in
Cuba. and the relations to Spain with the
American republics in general and the United
States in particular. Senior Canovas an
nounced that no document of the nature out
lined had been despatched to any government.
He added that the cabinet had made detailed
notes relative to the Cuban situation and
that at an opportune moment memorandum
would be submitted to the powers in order
TO enable them to judge of the true condition
OF affairs in Cuba.
Continuing, Senior Canovas said that the
Spanish people had no cause to complain of
the policy of President Cleveland but Sena-
tors Sherman and Morgan were to be blamed
for their speeches in the United States senate
He concluded by advising a policy of pru-
dence at the present time, since an explosion
of feeling would be disastrous.
Senior nellie, one of the Carlist deputies
made q brief speech, censuring the Spanish
government for its failure to prevent flibus-
tering expeditions from America landing in
Cuba. To this Senior Canovas replied, add
ing that Spain should not rely on any ALI
anee, but rather upon her own resources to
retain Cuba.

RIOTING IN BELFAST.
Nationalist Demonstration Ended in
Numerous Broken Heads.


BELFAST, Aug. 17.-Serious rioting
occurred this morning in connection
with the nationalist manifestations in
favor of granting amnesty to the Irish
political prisoners. There were sew
eral professions of nationalists through
the streets, as a beginning, and they
finally were merged into large pro-
cession headed by bandsmen, armed
with spears. The procession soon at
tracted immense crowds of people and
stone throwing commenced This
served to enrage the nationalists and
their bandsmen attacked the crowds
with their spears, wounding many peo-
pie.
The police charged the rioters and
used their batons freely, with the re-
suit that several persons were hurt
before order was restored The rioting
caused the greatest excitement
throughout the city, and further dis
turbances are feared. The police. how
ever, are taking steps to make a dis
play of force calculated to prevent
any further serious rioting, and, If nee
esSary, the military will be called upon
to assist the constabulary in maintain
ing order.

No Sale of New York Securities

NEW YORK, Aug. 17.-Bids were opened
today for So, 43S, O33 of 312 per cent gold bonds
of the city of New York. OF the total amount
of bonds $1519,300 non-taxable, and for
these there were tenders aggregating $751;
342 while for the other bonds amounting to
s., 913 1873 the tenders footed up only 81 SOL 800
The highest bid was 101.2 %. Under the law,
no award was made. At the meeting of the
sinking fund commission to open bids, the
mayor and city chamberlain opposed the sale
of any bonds at par, while the comptroller
argued that it was the duty of the commits
sion to accept the best terms offered as the
city is paying per cent on the money it
has borrowed to meet current expenses of
the several funds which the bonds were de-
signed to replenish. Both the mayor and the
comptroller refused to yield the point and
as no bonds be issued without the sane
ton Of the comptroller, and the mayor has
the power to veto the action Of the comp
troller no course is open but to re-advertise
for bids for the bonds and that will be done.

flibusterer, Three Friends, to warrant them
in ordering her release The future action

knowledge and belief. there were no arms on
board, but the officials are not satisfied with
this statement and have asked the collector
at Jacksonville to furnish positive informa-
ton on this point If it is shown that the
vessel had no arms aboard she undoubtedly
will be released, but if the contrary is found
to be the fact, she will probably be libelled,
and her officers proceeded against for viola

CLAIM EVERYTHING.

Nogales people are on the tiptoe of rejoicing for that decision of the su- preme court affirming the decision Of the court of private laud claims which forever puts at rest the title of the town of Nogales. The uncertainty of title no longer existing Nogales will grow with rapidity and many new sub stantial buildings will be erected. Score another big mark for this ad- ministration for Arizona. Tucson Star.
 In it's adulation of this great and good administration" the Star always claims everything" and of course, claims too much. The supreme court settled the Nogales grant question. The administration had nothing to do with it. The court of private land claims first dug up the fatal defects in the Nogales grant and spread them in a decision. The jndges and attorneys of that court were appointed by Pre- sldent Harrison and confirmed by a republican senate. There is where the "big mark" belongs.

THE ORC BLANCo ROAD

Every little while some malicious fling is made at "the Gro Blanco road failure. "The Orc Blanco road is NOT a failure. It is daily travelled by teams and horsemen and continually brings trade to Nogales. The editor has travelled that road and numerous county roads in California and Nevada which were no better, and over the latter heavy traffic was conducted. The first estimate for road between Nogales and Orc Blanco was by an engineer who said it would cost s25, 900. The men who built the road believed that estimate excessive. And they have successfully followed their plan to construct passable thoroughfare, secure it's adoption as county road, trusting to time, use and regular work to raise it to high standard. The plan is working out admirably, and the road cost only s6,00O.
 When they talk about "the Orc Blanco road failurer shoot these facts at them.

ANOTHER OSTRICH TRICK

The way in which some people now in Nogales hide their heads and im- agine themselves concealed, by send ing to the Arizona Gazette what they are afraid to print at Nogales, has be- fore now been the subject Of comment in these columns. The last ostrich act of this description appeared in the Gazette of Tuesday, and is fouud among the items in the regular No gales correspondence, as follows-
 Nogales Is about to find herself in the midst of redhot city election. In the language of the new woman we have "a hot" town any way, and there is great amount of excitement connected with anything her citizens attempt to do, whether it Is electing town dads, or building county roads out of town funds. The present alder men, copying after the Phoenix city council, recently voted each member a salary of S25 per month, carrying Lhe resolution without dissenting vote, etc., etc.
 The palpable msstatement in the last sentence is put forward to deceive. and no doubt it will be read and quot ed to numerous voters and taxpayers to bolster false assertion that the councilmen are annually drawing from the town treasury $500 each, an aggre- gate of $500.
 The record plainly shows that the c0uncilmen were paid S25 each-but once, not mOnthly-on itemized bills covering necessary expenses in going to Crittenden and Tucson in attend ance on courts. That expense would not have been necessary had the "kickers" paid their licenses and re- trained from monkeying with the in- junction buzz saw. It was first pro- posed to cover the expense by paying salary for one month only, but that was found impracticable and the reso- lution was rescinded.
 But the above is a sample of the many islanders leveled at the Nogales common council. The Gazette should instruct its office-holder corresponds ent to avoid offensive partisanship."

IN HIS speech as presiding officer oi
 the Presbyterian Home Missionary Society, President Cleveland took oc- casion to comment severely upon the people of the far west and the lack Of religious spirit among them. Yet the highest per eentage of church commu- nicants to total population is in the territories, not in the older states. Arizona ranks third in the list, New Mexico first, Utah second. No wonder MT. Hartman of Montana, declared a missionary needed in the White House.
The oasis., 1896-03-14

THE OASIS does not believe that Don Ricardo Johnson of Hermosillo, had any connection whatever with the crack brained Lauro Aguirre or his reported pronunciamento against Pre- sident Diaz. Don Ricardo has too much sense to identify himself with such people. The rumor printed in the Associated press dispatches con- meeting him herewith, was purely gratutOus.
