BAY Indians.

Bhy Indians.
Port Townsend, Wash. May 3l.--
Yesterday, while cruising in the neigh
borhood of Cape Flattery the attention
of Captain Ginger, OF the tugboat Holy
oke, was attracted to great commotion
to the southwark. Steaming to the
scene, the captain and crew Of the
Holyoke were rewarded with the speo-
tacle of vicious fight between canoe
fleet Of Indians on one side and large
whale on the other. The Indians
handled their canoes we'll, and from
every point of the compass an attack
was being made, harpoon after harpoon
sinking from sight in the sides of the
monster, which lashed the waters high
into the air in its vicious attempts to
crush the canoes and drown its tor
mentors. The Indians were too wary,
however, and finally tired the whale
out. Then well-directed harpoon
thrust finished him.
Having dispatched their game, the
Indians We're in quandry as to get
ting the big fellow ashore, but Captain
Ginger was equal to the emergency. A
small hawser was passed into u canoe
and taken to the dead whale, where it
was attached to many harpoon ropes.
Numerous canoes then hooked on to
one another behind the whale, and the
procession started for Neah bay, where
it was met with great rejoicing by the
natives who had remained at home.
The whale was beached and the Neah
bay tribe of Indians are now enjoying

Havana, May 3l.--El Diario de la

"We see in the American newspapers
evidence that there are certain social
classes in the United States not suffi-
ciently alive to the importance of the

tail. These classes are remarkable
for the eagerness with which they
evade jurisdiction in affairs, which,
like the Cuban war, are exclusively the
affairs of Spain. The persistence with
which they recognize the belligerency
of the insurgents is crazy and ridicu-
lous. The important conservative in
terests of the United States should net
forget that the patience of Spain may
soon become exhausted. The Spanish
government has given abundant proofs
OF its good will by ignoring the many
Inconvenience that have been caused
by resolutions in congress. Those in
terests ought to be thankful to us for
our abnegation.
"But in case the sword should be
unsheathed, Spain would certainly not
be the heaviest loser in the fight
Spain has sent 200. 900 troops to Cuba
to settle a domestic difficulty. What
would she not do in the event of for

and half mile south flowed in behind
the main temporary levee, erected in
the past week to hold back the water,
which had settled itself to height OF
from 9 to 10 feet on the sonthern river
front.
A general alarm was sent ont by
the fire department, and all the assist

These families are encamped along the

At 10 O'Clock the food has broken
through the second levee on Fourth

A CUBAN CONFERENCE.
Important Meeting TO BE Held In Phila-
delphia Next Week.

Philadelphia, May Silt is defi-
nitely settled that the most important
conference held in America in connec-
tion with the Cuban cause will assem-
BILE in Philadelphia some time next
week. General Palma will preside.
With him will be Quesada, the charge
d'affaires. They are coming here, it
Is said, to prepare plans that may
meet with entire appreciation OF the ad-
ministration.
1t is said that as soon as Senator
Sherman became secretary OF state he
sent for Quesada. That interview has
had more to do with the coming confer
ence than anything that has occurred
in Cuban affairs since the inauguration
Of the war two years ago.

Sewer Department. that will give him
control Of that body and through 1T, the
practical ownership OF the streets OF

II the editor of that paper would only
stop to think, be would discover there are
no grounds whatever for any fear in regard
to this matter, unless tho Democratic
members of the Commission will vote to
give Mr.. Addicks the practical ownership
Of the streets. The term Of Mr.. Simmons
will expire during the coming two years,
and his successor, whoever he may be,
cannot give Mr.. Addicks any privilege
whatever, unless he should DO aided by
Prof. Pratt or Prof. Webster. II the
editor will please take notice, no change
can be made in the political complexion
of the Board for over two years, no matter
who shall succeed Mr. Simmons. Tho
friends of Addicks will not be benefited,
nor his opponents injured by the election
of the Republican candidate for Mayor, as
the Board will remain Democratic.
