Wild commotion reigned on shore. but
Hull and his men went to work with all
their might to secure their prize. She
had been dismantled o her deck
by the Frenchmen. as a measure Of pre-
caution against seizure. and her guns
had been slowed in the hold: but. before
sunset her royal yards were crossed.
her gun scaled. and her new crew
quartered. She got under way. with
the American flag at her ensign peak.

"'Tis Hull by heavens," said the

He returned the Sally's captain and

and a more substantial reward. and
ordered Hull to spread every rag OF
canvas on the Sandwich.

Lake Yesterday.

SALT LAKE, Sept. S.-The funeral
of President Woodruff of the Mormon
Church, took place to-day in the Taber
nacle
Early in the morning people began
to gather at the Tabernacle, and at
10 o'clock the great building was
crowded to it's full capacity while
thousands remained in the yard and
adjoining streets.
The remains were conveyed from the
family residence and reached the Ia
bernacle at 1870, and were placed in
the open space in front of the altar.
The pail bearers We're Grin w. Snow,
Milton w. Snow, w. S. Woodruff,
James Woodruff George Scholes and
W. w. Beatie, all grandsons of the
deceased.
President George @. Cannon presid-
ed. The services began with prayer
by E. d. Richards, one of the twelve
apostles, which was followed with mu-
sic by the Tabernacle choir. Joseph

A large part of the. platform is devot

A large part of the. platform is devot-
ed to State questions.
In addition, the .Populist convention
adopted a substitute platform, which
affirTns the national principles of the
Omaha and st. Louis platforms.
On other subjects the platform says:
I'VE congratulate the country upon
the speedy and glorious termination of
the war waged by our nation in the in
terest of an oppressed people. We APP
plaud the patriotism, bravery and he
roism manifested by the American
soldiers and sailors, from the Com
mander-in- Chief to the rank and file.
I'VE favor the speedy construction Of
the Nicaraguan Canal
1--WE favor the laying by the Gov
eminent of a Pacific cable from Puget
Sound, via Honolulu to Japan, China
and the Philippines, such cable to be
owned and operated as a part of the
national postal system"
A substitute platform was adopted
by the Silver Republican convention,
which says, in part:
I'VE hereby reaffirm the declaration
of principles embodied in the platform
adopted by the National Free Silver
Convention at ST. Louis. While we do
not favor any aggressive policy of ter
ritorial expansion. we are opposed to
the surrender to Spain Of any of the
territory that has been acquired by
American valor and the expenditure of
blood and treasure of our people, and
we do not favor the surrender to
Spains domination the people of
any Spanish colonies who co-operated
with our forces against our enemies in
the late war"

POLITICS IN WASHINGTON.
No Conclusion Yet Reached on the
Question of Fusion.

FLLENSBURG (Wash), Sept. s.
To-day's session of the Populist, Dem
ocratic and Free Silver Republican
conventions was spent in discussion of
the question of fusion. At midnight no
conclusion had been reached. The Peo-
nle's PARTY name and two Supreme
Judges were demanded. The Democrats
refused TO accept it, and demanded one
Judge or the party name.
The Joint committee reported union

PonuIists and Silver Republicans.

ALASKAN RESOURCES.
Very Few Advices Received From
the Investigating Parties.

WASHINGTON, Sept. S.-The United
States Geological Survey has received
very few advicese from the members
of the parties investigating the gold
and other mineral resources of Alaska,
and who have been traversing little
known regions in the territory lying
outside of the klondike district since
early in April. Letters are frequently
received at the office from friends of
the men inquiring as to their where
abouts, health, etc, but little informa
ton can be given. This lack of news
is not surprising, according to DR..
Morsell of the survey office, and is
nothing more than was expected.
There is no news at all from either
Mr. Peters, Mr.. Muldrow or Mr..
Spurs, and nothing recent from Mr..
Barnard, who has with him young Mr..
Barther, President McKinley's nephew.
George H. Eldridge, DIR. Morsell states,
wrote to the Office under date of June
Both from a point 40 miles up the
Shushltna River in South Central
Alaska, where, with two men. he was
in camp. There wait was to be made
for the arrival of Mr.. Muldrow and

start and pack to the northward to

EVACUATION OF CUBA.
Instructions to Spanish Commits
sion Arrive at Havana.

HAVANA, Sept SIS p. m.)-The
Spanish mail steamer Ciudad de Cadiz,
which arrived this afternoon, brought
instructions from the Madrid Govern
ment to the Spanish evacuation Com
missioners, dealing with the details of
evacuation, the questions of fortifica-
tons, buildings. mortgages and other
properties of the State to be renounced
by Spain along with her sovereignty of
the island.
On Tuesday last, acting upon the adj
vice of the Colonial Council of Secre-
taries, General Blanco issued decree
authorizing the municipality of Havana
to apply to the payment of certain other
preferred obligations those sums which,
as provided in the municipal budget,
should be applied in payment of inter-
est and mortgages overdue on loans Of
100000 and 100000 pesos, respect
lively, and directing the Banco Espanol
to turn over to the municipal treasury
all sums collected under these heads,
suspending this quarters payment of
interest on the bonds issued for these
loans
Despite the agreement of the council
and General Blanco's approval, the
Banco Espanol decided, in order to
maintain credit, to advance the money
to pay the interest due to the bondhod-
ers on the loan, protesting against the
councils agreement as "a direct viola
ton of the vested property rights, re-
spect for which is the social and eco
nomic basis Of any country"

its civil employees. 1t owes eight months
salary to those appointed before the
establishment of autonomy in the ISL
and, and four months to those named
since.

Reported That No Fewer Than Seven Hun
dred Are Missing.
The Victims First Robbed and
That the Outbreak Was Pre-
concocted - Edhem Pasha is
Charged as Responsible for the
Trouble.

LONDON, Sept S.-The correspon-
dent of the London Standard tele-
graphing Thursday from the British
battleship Camperdown, off Gambia,
says:
The refugees tell CHASTITY stories or
massacres. They report that no fewer
than 100 Christians are missing. Sew
eral attempts were made last night to
set on fire the Office of the Eastern
Telegraph Company. 1t has been as
cCrtained that all the houses overlook
ing the British camp were loopholed for
rifle fire and barricaded. This shows
clearly that the outbreak was precon-
cocted.
The behavior and attitude of the
Turkish troops have been and still are
inexplicable. Without going SO far as
to assert that they took part in the at
tack on our troops, though many people
are ready to affirm that they actually
saw the Sultans soldiers firing on our
soldiers, it is impossible to contradict
the positive fact that they made no at
tempt to render assistance.
Every Christian survivor Of the
massacre swears that the butchery
was mostly the work of Turkish SOL
diers, who first robbed and then slew
the victims.
'Edhem Pasha is the man who ought
to be held primarily responsible. Had
he wished to prevent bloodshed he
could most certainly have done so.
Not until the British troops under
Colonel Reid had been fighting hard
for four hours did Edhem, with his
Turkish soldiers arrive lpOn the scene.
1T is enough to say that Edhem
Pasha must have known what was hap
pening from the moment the first shot
was fired, if, indeed, he did not ar
range the plot himself"
The correspondent of the Times" at
Gambia, telegraphing Thursday, says:
1T is estimated that no fewer than SUO
Christians have been massacred and
the town has been pillaged by Bashi
BaZouks and the Turkish soldiers. All
reports agree as to the disgraceful be-
havior of the Turkish troops"
COMMANDMENT EXPECTED.
ATHENS, Sept S.-The following
dispatch dated at o'clock this even
ing, has been received from Gambia:
The Bashi Bazouks are committing ex-
cesses and the Christians in the sur
rounding districts are arming to
march to the assistance of the Can
dams There are eight warships in the
harbor, and a fresh bombardment is
expected.
The British, German and Spanish
Consulates have been looted and thus
far 300 native Christians and u Brit
ish subjects have been killed.
