TROUBLE FOR HAYTI.
The Black Republic Has Taken Forcible
Possession of Nayassa.


Baltimore, July 5.-A special cable
dispatch to the Sun to-day from King
ston, Jamaica, says: The captain of the
schooner Eastern Queen, six days out
from lnagua, reports calling at Ma
vassa to take off the tools and stores of
the American company which owns the
property.
He found the island occupied by a
band of Haytiens, who prevented him
from landing by threatening to shoot
any person setting foot ashore. They
said the island had been deserted by the
Americans and is now in their possess
sion. John ;. Fowler, president of the
phosphate company who owns the ISL
and. said to-day:
We have not abandoned \avassa,
and when we had TO withdraw our
workmen we left the United States flag
flying. All the property on the island
belongs To us. We have notified the
state department of the reported occu-
pancy of the island. our agent i'm the
West Indies, who is located at Port au
Prince, Hayti, had arranged with the
administration of the Haytien navy 10
remove our property. The Haytiens
claimed this island once before, but the
ruling of the state department when
Lewis Cass vas at it's head decided
their claim out of order, and respect
has since been accorded our claim TO
possession.
I'VE hold the United States govern
ment responsible for loss If any may
occur to our property. as the island is
under the United States flag. and only
United states laws apply to its govern
ment and the discipline of our en-
ployes. We would continue working
the deposits IL we could get ships to
load there. Only his has stopped the
business of exporting"

CAUSING PERPlExITY.
War Department Considering what Ia
do With the Spanish Prisoners.

Washington, July 5.-The question IF
what disposition To make af the Span

States forces is causing the war de-
partment some perpleNity. The mat
ter was under discussion to-day. but
Secretary Alger said no conclusion had
been reached as to the steps to be
taken. 1t is realized that the naval
prisoners cannot be kept long aboard
ship. They must be gotten off before
actual operations are taken by Samp-
sons fleet against the shore batteries.
1t has been suggested that the prison.
ers be loaded on the transports avail

well out i'm the water, pending their
final disposition.

A Mountain Of Basalt.

There is mountain of dark brown
basalt on the Columbia river nearly 1900
feet in height and stretching along the
stream for six or eight miles. When the
white settlers first came into the country,
the Indians told them this mountain was
travelling; that some day it would move
across the Columbia and form lake
which would reach from the cascades to
The Dalles What the Indians said has
been found true in some respects The
mountain is i'm motion. Its movement Is
forward and downward. The railroad
builders who constructed their line along
tho base found the tracks continually
forced out of place. In some places the
movement has amounted to eight and ten
feet in few years. biologists attribute
the phenomenon to the fact that the noun
tain rests on substratum of conglomernte
or of soft sandstone, which Is steadily be-
ing washed away by the current OF the big
river.-Ncw York Tribune
