The Village of Pawling Was in State of Jutapsa ExcJtement

Pawling, N. Y, Aug. 1.-The citizens of this village thought that the desper- ado, Charles Bonai, alias Mason, who is wanted for the murder of Marcus Nichols near Bridgeport, Conn.,, and several masked robberies in Duchess county, was among them to-day, and there was great excitement when the suspect was arrested tonight. The man arrived here last evening and went to a private boarding house, where he aroused the suspicion of the landlady by his peculiar conduct to-day.
 He refused to come to the table with the other boarders, and seemed anx- ious to avoid observation. Mrs. Stark. the landlady, reported her suspicious to the authorities, and an officer shad- owed the man all day. Tonight he was arrested at the boarding house and taken before Justice Dye. He answer ed the description of Bonai in many ways, but succeeded in proving to the satisfaction of the court that he was not that much-wanted individual. He proved to be Parki Judge, a young Irishman from Canada, who lately came to New York state. He was dis charged without being locked up.

cANADA,s FIL1a1 noYA1rY.
Why Colonial Treaties With Germany and
 Belgium Were Denounced

London, Aug 1.-The secretary of answering to a question in the house Of commons to-day on the subject of the denunciation by the government of Great Britain of the treaties of com merce with Germany and Belgium, said the denunciation was the unanimous wish of the self-governing colonies who desired to deal with the United King dom on preferential terms.
 Mir Chamberlain added that at the con- ference between the colonial premiers and himself a resolution was passed unanimously, the substance being that the premiers of the self governing col onies heartily recommended the earliest denunciation of the treaties, as ham pering the trade of Great Britain and her colonies, and that it was accompan- jed by an important and significant res olution, namely, that In the hope of im- proving the trade relations between the mother country and the colonies the premiers undertook to confer with their colleagues as to what result could be secured by a. preference given by the colonies to the products of the United Kingdom.
 On receipt of these resolutions MT. Chamberlain further explained, her majesty's government resolved to i'm mediately withdraw the treaties with Germany and Belgium.
 The secretary of state for the colonies also said that the law officers of the crown were now considering the ques- ton whether the resolution of the Can- adian parliament infringed these treat ies The Canadian government, Mir Chamberlain added, had asked to be allowed to be represented before the law officers of the crown. This was unusual; the colonial secretary explained, but the request of the government of Can ada had been granted
 In conclusion, MT. Chamberlain as sured the house that the action of Canada in this matter was not step toward separation, but, distinctly a movement against separtion. the inten- tino being to show gratitude and to prove the loyalty of the colonies.

 Largest in the Country's History.
 Washington, Aug. 4.-Corrected ta- bles about to be published by the bu- reau of statistics, the monthly sum- mary of finance, will show that the fiscal year ended June 30 was the larg- est in the history of domestic exports, the value of which reached $1,032, ,001,- 300. The next largest was the year 1892. when they amounted to $1, ,O15, ,732,- OH. The increase over exports of the preceding amounts to $16S, ,S00,813
 There has been considerable in- crease in the exports of domestic man. ufactures. Comparing these with the year 1892, (the largest previous export year), when they were valued at $15S,- 510,937, or 15.6 per cent. of the whole, the year 1897 shows that they amounted to $276,357, ,S61 or 26.7S per cent of the total exports, which Is an increase over the fiscal year ended June 30, 1896, of $42,7S6,6S3.

CUBAN PATRIOTS ACTIVE
DYNAMITE AN ENTRANCE TO THE
 SUBURBS OF SANTA CLARA.

Authorities at Loss to Know How the
 Insurgents Got Into the Town-Great
 Panic Among the Citizens-Trocha Fired
 Upon-Gen. Calixto Garcia at Vego Alto
 Other Notes of the War.
 Havana, via Key West, Fla, Aug. 4.-The insurgents dynamited the cul- vert near the EsperanZa railroad sta tion of the city of Santa Clara, on the night of July 29 The culvert was completely destroyed, traffic being stop ped and all telegraphic communication being cut off. The authorities signalled by heliograph to Cienfugos for relief. The next night while local volunteer forces were patrolling the town they came suddenly upon a group of insur- gents in the center of one of the prin- cipal streets, Tlle challenge was given, and the insurgents replied with "Vive Cuba Libre," and opened up fire.
 The authorities are entirely at a loss to know how the insurgents en- tered the town and succeeded In get ting by the fort garrisoned by the Third regiment of local guerillas, which was at the extreme end of the street.
 As soon as the insurgents were dis covered a great panic ensued among the residents, women, children and the aged fleeing pelI mell through the streets and begging for protection meanwhile the men either sided with the insurgents or joined the Spanish tha i'm vaders providing themselves with food clothing and cash. The military com mander ordered the garrison to helr the patrolmen in the attack upon the insurgents. The latter were finally re- pulsed, the regular troops losing one killed and twelve wounded, among the latter a lieutenant and chaplain. At 9 o'clock p. m on Monday the in surgents opened fire on the fort, guard ing the entrance to Santiago de las ve- gas, Havana. The firing continued fol an hour but without special conse- | quences beyond the alarm produced among the residents.
 | Artemisa, on Captain General Wey. lers western trocha, was fired upon by small band of insurgents on July 22 | but without result.
 The insurgents dynamited the culvert near Vega Alta. Numerous trifline | skirmishes near Camaguey show that part of the insurgent forces are in that locality. Headed by General Calixt6 Garcia, they have marched there tt take part in the presidential election campaign.
 It is reported that in a fight at Rie Amero, Sagua, Andrade and other vel l known Havana men formerly with Gen. 1 eral Maxine Gomez were killed.

MINE STRIKE UNCHANGED.
The Big Labor Trouble Presents No New Phase.

Phase.
 Pittsburg, Aug. 4.--The miners strike situation has not changed materially from yesterdays report. Everything Is quiet about the Turtle Creek camp, tie only ripple of excitement being the hearing of President Dolan and the other officials for riot and unlawful assembly.
 A careful estimate of the men now at work In Turtle Creek shows 125 out of a total of 2S5. No work was done at the Oak Hill or Sandy Creek mines. The camp was reduced in numbers to- day by three hundred men. They were sent to their homes for two reasons to lessen the expense and because these men were not inclined to respond to the numerous marching orders imposed on them. The camp has been costing $500 a day to keep 1t in provisions, etc, be- ing at the rate of seven cents per man per day. as against nineteen cents per day in the National Guard encamp-
 ments. The camp Is now under strict
 military discipline, and everything is moving like clockwork. The customary march will be made to Plum Creek in the early morning and will be continued daily. the miners officials say, until the
 suspension in the DeArmitt mines is
 complete.
 l At the hearing in the case of Presi- dent Dolan and others for riot and un-
 lawful assemblage this afternoon be- fore Semmes a number of witnesses were heard, but the justice reserved de-
 cision until tomorrow afternoon. | Eight hundred workingmen, headed by band, marched through the streets of Turtle Creek tonight. The strikers had gone to meet them and about 1,2O0
 men were in line. Rev. William Hall
 of the M. F. church addressed a meet
 ing after the parade. He complimented
 the miners on their manly fight and
 the peaceable manner in which 1t was
 being conducted. At the close of his
 address he handed the miners bag
 containing $265, contribution from the
 citizens of Wilmington.

CAPTAIN SIGSB EE JUSTIFI
He Acted Wisely in Running the Maine
 Into the Pier.

Washington, Aug. 4.-The navy de- partment has received report from the special naval board which investi- gated the collision between the battle ship Maine and the car barge and pier in the East river last week. The board fully justifies Captain Sigsbee for the course he adopted in choosing a com paratively slight injury to the Maine by running into the pier rather than bring serious disaster upon the steamer Isa- belle, which was crowded with people at the time.

Bodies Not Recovered.
 Ansonia, Aug. 4.-August Lingren and George Hanson, aged, respectively. seven and eight years. were drowned in the Ansonia canal this afternoon, and at midnight the bodies had not been recovered.

 The boys were seen about o'clock preparing to go in swimming on the south side of the canal below the gate house. Later their clothes were found on the bank, but the boys had disap- peared. The canal is very broad and deep where the drowning took place, and neither of the lads could swim. When notified of the accident MT. Lin- gren at once made efforts to recover the bodies, but he was unsuccessful.

KLONDIKE FIELDS NOT IN AJ4sEA
Are Inside the British Boundary by at
 Least Thirty-fiye Miles


 Washington, Aug. 4-Incited by the newspaper publications recently, tend ing to throw doubt upon the ownership of the Klondike gold fields, some of the high government officials who would naturally be expected to deal with the question if it comes to a prac- tical issue, have been quietly looking into the matter with a view to pre- pairing themselves for the controversy that may arise. Their views are in substance that there can be no valid objection advanced to the title of Great Britain to this country
 A careful examination of charts and maps made far enough back in date to be free from suspicion of influence of the recent heavy gold finds has con- vinced these officers that so far as the Klondike fields, as defined by the latest reports. are concerned, there can be no question but that they lie east of the Hist meridian, which defines the boundary line, and so are within Brit ish territory by about thirty-five miles at least.
