SCHOONER WRECKED.
The Moonlight Meets With Disas-
ter in Alaskan Waters.

SEATTLE August 2.-The first news
received from the many vessels that
left here early in the summer with gold
seekers for Kotzebue Sound, Alaska,
came to-day in a letter from Charles
Thornton, announcing the wreck of the
schooner Moonlight July I'd. at the
entrance of the Kawayk River. Her
passengers and their outfits were all
saved
The vessel was wrecked on one of the
many small islands that lie in the en-
trance of Kotzebue Sound. The skip
rer, who was unfamiliar with the coast,
refused to take on Indian pilots.
The Moonlight was one of the vessels
to sail from here this season for Kotze-
bue Sound. She sailed on the same
night as the schooner Jane Gray, also
bound for Kotzebue Sound. The Jane
Gray was wrecked on May I'D a few
hundred miles off Cape Flattery, with a
loss of thirtysiX lives.
The Moonlight succeeded in getting
within twenty five miles of her destina-
ton. She carried from here fifty five
passengers On the Moonlight was a
large amount of lumber This was
saved, and will be used by the ship
wrecked passengers in the construction
of boats to ascend the Kawayk River
and continue their explorations.

SAN FRANCISCO, August 2.-Gen-
eral Merritt's call for reinforcements
and Aguinaldo's ugliness have sent a
thrill along the nerves of the remaining
troops of the expeditionary forces, who
with peace apparently imminent and
transports few and far between, had
begun to fear that the alarms Of war
were not for them. If the Governor
General Of the Philippines is to make
his demand exceed the 10000 limit
every one here will go, and more will
be called for.
General Merriam has had no orders as
expeditionary force. The transports
Charles Nelson and Lakme will get off
some time this week, probably Friday.
Three companies of the First Battalion
of the First New York Volunteers, Ma
jor Chase commanding, will sail on the
Charles Nelson, and the battalion of
engineers, 364 enlisted men and four
teen officers, Captain Rickson COM
manding, will take passage on the
Lakme. Both commands will be or
dered, to embark on Thursday. The re-
naming companies of the New York
regiment will be transported as soon
afterward as possible. The Alliance
and the MaIiposa are now under con-
sideration for this purpose. The North
Fork will be used for freight only.
Troop A, Utah Volunteer Cavalry, is
designed for duty in the national parks
in the State of California, and will
march from the Preside Of San Fran
cisco on August 9th.

on June 21st, for upon that date Cap
tain Glass of the U. s. S. Charleston
captured the Ladrone Islands, took the
Governor General, his staff and the en-
tire military force prisoners and raised
the Stars and Stripes over the ruins OF
the Spanish fort of Santa Cruz in the
harbor of San Luis d'Apra. 1t was
blcodless victory, for the Spanish, not
having heard of the war between their
country and the United States, were
taken completely by surprise, and sur
rendered the island, their arms and
est resistance.
From a strategic point of view, how
ever it was a very important one, for
the harbor of San Luis d'Apra, on the
vest coast of the main island, Guam, is
an ideal coaling station, and while the
whole group will undoubtedly prove to
be of incalculable value to the United
States, it commends itself as the most
valuable of all the newly acquired pos
sessions on account of its situation 1t

lulu. 800 miles southeast of Yoko-
hama, and 1,5O0 miles east of Luzon,

Its Inhabitants, who number about
10000, are a hospitable, peaceful, law
abiding people, only too anxious TO
throw off the Spanish yoke, yet perfect
ly willing to shoulder another less gall
ing one.
"Of the islands themselves volumes
might be written and the half not told.
Suffice it to say that they are of vol
canic origin, but prolific, comparatively
healthy, and only await capital TO de-
velop their innumerable resources.
For three days the Charleston's run
from Guam to Manila was without in
cident, but on June 18th, shortly after
Point Engana the nOrtheasterly cape
of Luzon Island, had been sighted,
strange steamer appeared on the holi-
zen. The Charleston was Immediately
cleared for action, and after the convoy
had fallen into line in her wake prepar-
ations We're made for giving her
warm reception should she prove to be
hostile. She turned out to be the U. 5.
s. Baltimore however, which had been
awaiting the fleet for ten days. The
ships were hove to while Captain Dyer
reported to Captain Glass, but immedi-
ately upon his return to the Baltimore
the whole fleet again got under way at
increased speed. AS it rounded the
north end of the island the first rough
weather of the entire trip, in the shape
OF southeasterly monsoon, was en-
countered. At p. m. on June 3Oth
the Baltimore led the way into Manila
harbor. and three hours later the fleet
anchored under the wing of the flag
ship Olympia, within a few miles of
the wrecks of the Spanish fleet which
had been annihilated by Admiral
Dewey just two months earlier.
"A large fleet of foreign men f-war
lay at anchor just above Manila, most
of which Were German, and an addition
was made to the feet by the arrival of
the Kaiserin Augusta, which followed
the transports into the harbor from
small cove just outside.

Fight Between Swan and Pelican

On the afternoon of Saturday, June
18th, a desperate battle was fought be-
tween a swan and pelican on the
water in ST. James Park, ending in the
death of the latter. The swans seem
to have felt considerable resentment at
the alien immigration represented by
the introduction of pelicans to the
waters on which they used to be su-
preme. and occasional skirmishes took
place before the final battle. The peli-
can, for all his massive beak, is not a
pusnacious bird (being, indeed, if we
are to believe mediaeval IDEAS a rep
resentative of the self-sacrificing vir-
tues rather than of militarism), and the
three pelicans in the park lately made
point of clustering together on the
shore of the pond when swan came in
sight.
But last Saturday one of the swans
managed, by some mishap, to find one
pelican alone. and immediately at
tackled him in the middle of the pond.

the time, as had been the case with
army garrisons several years ago in
the far West the natives could no
more be relied upon to continue their
peaceful pursuits for any great length
of time than the American Indians in
former days, and that with small gar
risons an uprising might lead to a dis
aster which would horrify the United
States
AS a consequence of these delibera-
tiOns and conclusions regarding the
whole Philippine group the attention
of the authorities was then concen-
trated upon the probability of the re-
tention of the island of Luzon alone,
and after debating the matter and di-
gesting a vast amount of information
about that island, the officers and Off
cials We're unanimously of the opinion
that it would be indiscreet in the ax-
treme to attempt to control the 1000,
600 inhabitants of Luzon with less
than $4,000 men.
Further study of the condition at Ma
nila, having due regard to the continu-
ance there of Admiral Dewey's squad
ron, resulted in the authorities discov-
ering nothing to warrant any mod.fica-
ton of the strength of the proposed
garrison of that city, which was consid-
cred a most conservative estimate, and
the fact that General Merritt's COM
mand was fixed at 25,0OO men is taken
to indicate that this Government a
month ago did not seriously contem-
plate the occupation of more territory
by the army than that included in the
city of Manila, while the navy with it's
ships and marines maintained posses
sion Of Cavite and Manila Bay. Even
then the proposition is subjected to
modification by the audacity Of Aguin-
aldo, and little short of his death or
capture is apt to clear up the compli-
cations.
1t is feared that the crisis at Manila
is already at hand and that Captain
General Augusti may at any moment
be compelled to surrender the city to
General Merritt, who would be prompt
ly compelled to accept the serious re-
sponsibility of protecting property in
the city from the insurgents at what
ever hazards. and the incongruous
spectacle may yet be presented of
American and Spanish troops there CO.
operating against common enemy,

THE PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.
PHILIPPINES TOO DIFFICULT
QUESTION TO SETTLE.
Grave Apprehension That Spain
May Stubbornly Resist Sug-
gestion of a Commission.

NEW YORK, Aug. 3-A special 20
the Tribune" from Washington says:
The Administration is more sanguine
than ever that the peace negotiations
will not be SO protracted and tedious
as was feared a week ago. In regard
to the Presidents demand for Spain s
immediate evacuation of Cuba and
Porto Rico, this feeling among Cabinet
officers amounts to conviction.
With regard to the Philippines, how
ever, grave apprehension is manifested
that Spain may stubbornly resist the
suggestion of a commission, taking ad-
vantage of the exceedingly embarrass-
ing situation which confronts General
Merritt through the officiousness Of The
insurgent chief Aguinaldo.
According to all accounts, this young
mans success has completely turned
his head, and the influence which he
exerts over several thousand semi i-clv-
ilized, or almost barbarous warriors,
presents a serious complication, which
is causing the authorities here no
end of worry and no little alarm.
The conditions which confront the
comparatively small forces under Cen
eral Merritts command between Cavite
and Manila are shown by official re
ports to be even more dangerous than
intimated in press dispatches, and the
Administration is gratified to see that
most of the influential newspapers of
the country have come to appreciate
some of the responsibilities which Will
be imposed upon the Government il the
United States found it necessary to
take permanent possession of the arch
ipelago.
This contingency was thoroughly con-
sidered by the military and naval au-
thorities as early as the middle of May,
when General Merritt was selected. 10
take an army corps across the Paclhc.
This was before Aguinaldo assumed an
impudent attitude, and at time when
he was giving every assurance OF SUD
ordination to Admiral Dewey. About
that time the military authorities IN
conference at Washington, both Gen
eral Miles and General Merritt being
present, carefully studied all conceiva-
BILE phases of the establishment of an
American protectorate over the Philip
pine group, and agreed that the mlnl-
mum strength of the United States
land forces that would be essential was
as follows: For garrison of Philippines,
10000 men: for garrison Of Luzon ISL
and alone, $4,000 men; for garrison OF
Manila alone, 25,O0O men.
These estimates were based upon the
assumption that for a considerable pc
riod at least after the expulsion OF the
Spaniards, all the native leaders would
exhibit their gratitude to the Amer
leans by heartily supporting the new
order of things. From the best infor-
nation that could be obtained regard
ing the habits and characteristics OF
the natives, Generals Miles and Mer-
ritt, as well as the other army ofn-
GERS who discussed the matter, were
convinced that whether the American
occupation was to be for one year CT
FIVE years 2 standing force equal to
that given above would be indispensa-
Bile. They agreed that while such .
force might have little to do most. OF

but when I caught sight of the COM
batants, the swan had seized in his
beak the pelican's neck, and was hold
water, beating down with his wings the
struggling white body. The pelican
was, so to say, lin chancery"; it could
not get it's beak round to peck the
swan, it tried in vain to shake off the
fatal grip. A crowd collected round
the shore. and began futile lombard
ment with stones; but the swan dis
dained this interference, and held on to
his victim like a bulldog. The peli-
cans struggles grew fainter, ending in
a feeble Tapping of the wings, and at
last, with a convulsive shudder, ceased
altogether. So far as could see, death
was due entirely to drowning but pos
sibly the neck may have been dislo-
Gated AS the keepers boat, which was
far away at the other end of the water,
approached, the swan, leaving the dis
torted heap of feathers floating piteeus-
ly on the lake, swan vigorously away.
Two pelicanS are left, and these sur
vivors show an intense dislike for soli-
tude; they are inseparable compan-
ions, and may be seen generally stand-
ing in contemplation on the floating
raft. They do not seem to display any
poignant regret at their relatives muir
der, but a. pelican's expression is medi-
tative rather than emotional. There
used to be fourth pelican. but it is re-
ported to have died of pneumonia
surely an extraordinary ailnent for an
aquatic bird, unless, like Iolanthe. it
could not bear wet feet. The pelican is
almost exactly the same size as the
swan, but is much more clumsy. How.
ever, those that have only seen the pei
leans in menagerie, where they are
exhibited as types of grotesque awk-
wardness, would be surprised at
the ease of movement dis
played by the creature Jewhen
swimming. Mr. Dryden, in one of
his books on natural history in Africa,

cans to their home-waters, in Ngami-
land, as one of the most impressive.
