EvANGELINA AT NEW YORK.

The Cuban Heroine Made Daring Break
Foe Liberty.
New YORK. Oct, 13.-Evan9elina
Cisneros, who recently escaped from
Spanish prison in Cuba, was a PAS
senger on the Ward line steamer SEN
eca, which arrived today from Havana.
Miss Cisneros asked to be excused
from saying anything about her i'm
prisonment and escape. On the pas
senger list she was registered at Miss
Juana Sola. She was travelling under
the care of gentleman who accom-
plnied her from Havana. Several
newspaper reporters and four women
went alongside the steamer, and after
the health officers inspection was over
they accompanied Miss Cisneros to this
city.
Miss Cisneros's escape and safe ar
most daring feats ever attempted and
successfully carried out. On Saturday
when the Senaca was to leave Hayana,
watched the gangways with
extra caution. Their vigilance would
have probably prevented the depart
ure of Miss Cisneros from Cuba had it
not been for refreshments, including
wine, served them by friends Of Miss
Cisneros aboard the Seneca.
A few minutes before the Senaca
was ready to sail, slim young fellow
came running across the wharf. He
had no baggage, and was fashionably
dressed. The detectives stopped him.
My name is Juan Sola," he slid,
aud he showed his passport. Every
thing was satisfactory. So the senior

BO UNDARiES OF LINCOLN.
Proposed Location of. the Dividing Line In
Aiaskn.


UNALASKA. Sept. 80. via San Fran
cisco, Oct. I4-Should the proposed
territory of Lincoln De created by the
division of Alaska, il will have as its
southeast boundary Mount ST. Elias.
From that point the eastern boundary
will run directly TO tie Arctic, which
ocean will form the northern bound
ary. The western boundary will likely
run along the coast line below ST.
Michaels to the top OF the divide be-
tween the Yukon and Koskowin rivers.
The boundary on the south will follow
the 62d parallel east to the Copper
river where it will cut down to Mount
St. Elias.
Should the division occur and the
boundary lines mentioned prevail,
Alaska proper will then include the
Aleutian islands, the coaling stations
of Dutch harbor and UnaIask and the
balance of the Alaska peninsula, the
Island of Unga and its quartz mines,
Kodiak island, Kanal peninsula and
the placer mines of Docks inlet,
Prince William sound and the placer
mines along the Copper river, the
towns OF Wraugel, Sitkl, Juneau,
Dyea, Skaguay aud the passes on the
overland route to the Yukon.
Within the new territory will be the
rich placer ofthe Yukon as far as the
international boundary. 1t will also
include the numerous settlements and
the the trading posts from ST Mich
aels 10 Circle City, aggregating a pop
ulatiou at present of over 5000 whites
and 5000 natives.

WASHINGTON, Oct. .l2.-Infornation
received ut the treasury department
from Captain Tuttle. of TIE cutter
Bear, now cruising in Alaskan waters,
does not give rosy description of
scenes at st. Michaels and pro spects of
the goldseekers. Writing f;.uu ST.
Michaels September Is, Captain futile
says:
There are in port fou. seagoipg
vessels aad six river steamers, with
one steamer and one barge in process
OF construction on the beach. About
''oo people are encamaed on the beach
awaiting the completion of these ves-
sells. At least seven vessels are ex,
pected to arrive, maay Of them with
passengers. There is no possible
chance of these people reaching the
Upper Yukon this season, and they
must winter here or at some point iu-
side the mouth of the Yukon.
"While there will be an abundance
OF provisions, as the trading companies
have their main depots here, trouble
is likely to arise from those who have
no provisions and no money. This,
however, IS a small matter whep it is
taken into consideration that matters
are much worse above Fort Yukon. On
September l3 the river steamer Hamil-
ton returned from its up-river trip,
having been unable to reach Circle
City. Captain Hill reported the river
SO low rs to prevent his reaching his
destination. His cargo was landed on
the river bank. The steamers Healy,
Weare, Alice, Bella and Marguerite
are now up the river, but the pres
poets ars that they will not be able to
reach Circle City or Dawson.

eERMANY's POLITICAL POLICE,
An Odtoua Institution of the BIS
mnrclxiRn Rerime

An Odtoua Institution of the Bis
marckian Regime.
One boast the German is never weary
OF making in regard to his government
as compared~with that of the United
States, namely, that the Officials of the
! fatherland are distinguished, if not for
enterprise, at least for honesty. In
the main this is true, but there are ex-
ceptions. The late Chancellor Bismarck
had no sooner got his imperial ma
| chinery IN running order, 25 years ago,
than he introduced as part of his gov
arnment one of the most odious fea-
lures of Russia, namely, the secret po-
litical police. He set aside large sums
of money with which to pay 'informers,
spies, ARD class of vretches, unknown
in America, called agents provocateurs.
The business of these last gentlemen
was to organize disturbances among
socialists, in order that the government
might have an excuse for making arrests
of such as the great prime minister was
pleased to call enemies of the empire"
or such as we would call enemies to the
Bismarckian policy.
The fruit which this tree has borne is
very bitter. A recent trial in Berlin
disclosed the painful fact that this Sc
cret police, intrusted with the most
delicate of all political tasks, has been
using its powers for the purpose of adj
vancing the Interests of court clique |
as opposed to the constitutional gov
ernment of the country. Bribery, for
gerry, perjury, have been used in the /
hopes of damaging Baron Marschall,
who is head of the German foreign
office, and man wholly above the vul-
gar intrigues that flourish in the at
mosphere of a court. But perhaps the
saddest feature in the case is the side
light it throws upon the German press.
Our own papers are not models of puri-
ty. but it would be difficult to name
New York paper capable of doing such
dirty work as is expected Of so-called
Official and semi-ofiic;al papers in the
land of Schiller and Goethe. When We
m America read that the German press
atatcks this man or praises that one, it
ioes not mean that the editors of these
papers have reached an inde-
pendent opinion in regard to their rel
atlVe merits, but it too frequently does
mean that they have been instructed by
he political police, or some other organ
'f state, that they must say this, that, !

THAT SPECIAL SESSION.

IT the current reports be true, there
is to Re next January a special session
of the Oregon Legislature, says the Cor
yallls Times. Whether, after convened,
the assembly will apply itself to the
dispatch of business common to legis-
latures, or whether it will continue to
be the colossal and idiotic freak that
it was last winter, is information that
is not vouchsafed the public. This is
sigui ant question that coafronts
the state and is Of paramount interest
to the people when it is known that
the answer is locked up in the bowels
Of political bosses who gather at
Salem during legislative sessions.
wheedle and bulldose members into
acts that violate the rights of

and fools of others, and ultimately
bring into degeneraey and disrepute
the law making branch of the state
government. 1t is known fact That
men GO to Salem to present q consti.
tuency in the Legislature, and that un-
der the chicanery and manipulation
of crafty political bosses the de-
termination to be honest and true is
lost and often they re5ura to
their homes political wrecks. with
regulations besmirched. These things
make dangerous any legislative ses-
sion and especially discourage the idea
of having one when matters are to
come up like those with which the
proposed special session must con-
tead,
A legislative session OF the right
sort could of course be of practical
utility at this time. a very large
amount of money Is. or ought to be
locked up in the vaults of the state
treasury. 1t cannot be used to pay
bills the state owes for lack of legisla-
tive sanction. and on these outstand-
ing bills the state is paying eight per
CENT interest. If the assembly in a
two weeks session, i'll which public
needs instead of private gain were the
motive, would pass al ap-
bill, cut eff useless com
missions and then dscently adjourn
much good would be accomplished.
With, however. certainty of prolon-
cation with ever increasing bitterness
Of the senatorial fight, it is not proha'
ble that the legislature in the proposed
special session would do anything be-
youd making fool of itself and the
state.
