NATIVE uPRisINGs.
Trouble in Both the New Hebrides and the
Solomon Groups.

Vancouver. B. c., Oct. 9.-There has
been native uprising in the New
Hebrides. 1t started by an attack
made by Hill natives upon the French
company stationed at Espiritu Santo.
The news reached Nonmea, New Gale
donia. by the steamer La France on
the 22d ult. The British cruiser Mil
duira at once set out from Villa for the
scene. The Hill tribes had surrounded
the company's station, occupying all
the tracks leading from it. and as they
were fully armed the overseers and la
borers employed there were in the
greatest peril. Later news as to the
effect that the Milduira had succeeded
in affording the protection required,
the natives retreating to the hills upon
the approach of the warship.
II. NJ. S. Mohawk has returned to
Sydney from the Solomon groud She
had been on punitive expedition
among the islands. Among the viii
lagos visited was that of Vella la Vella.
The natives of this place were concern
ed in a murderous attack made on
Capt. j. Pratt, a well-known island
trader The Mohawk landed an arm
ed party who fired the natives huts
and destroyed the plantations.
Subsequently the Mohawk called at
Simbo and arrested the chief of the viii
lage there in connection with massa-
ere of a neighboring tribe. Some ma
tive girls had been carried off by Simo3
as prisoners and the captain of tbs
warship endeavored to obtain their re-
lease. but all to no avail, and the CHIEF
was taken to Taligu for trial before the
British commissioner.
While on the Mohawk the chief be-
came very violent. He was placed in
irons but few days later, after being
transferred to H. M. s. Goldlnch, tried
to escape by jumping overheard. The
and he was returned to the varsity
and subsequently handed over to the
native police at Tulagi.
H. M. S. Mohawk has proceeded t6
the Santa Cruz group. The ceremony

Albany, N. Y, Oct. 9.-State Engi-
neer Adams has presented to Gov.

lures of the report of the canal investi-

report us cruelty unjust, unfair and
unwarranted under the circumstances. :"
The, statement discusses the prelim-
mary steps taken for the canal i'm

agitation of the subject in the consti-
tutional convention of 1894, and calls
attention to the estimates given to the
convention. showing that of the state

that he told the convention in this re-
port that he had no data to work on,
ana that his estimate should be treat
sondy as a rough approximate.
Ef{6 also quotes the language of Ex-

but the latter refutes this statement
and claims that he was never consult
ed either as to the amount of the ap-
preparation or the terms of the law,
charging him with such enormous re-
sponsibilities.
The state engineer fully discusses
every criticism that affects his depart
ment and shows the erroneous views
and faulty premises on which they are
based. These are over 60 in number.

has irritated Turkish circles. They call
the action of the Powers unjust and hope
is entertained that Russia will decline to
cooperate with the other Powers, in
which case ii is believed the latter will
not resort to extremites.
In diplomatic circles comment has been
excited by the fact that the censor per-
mitted the newspapers here to reproduce
the dispatch in which Russia, replying to
Great Britain, declared she was opposed
TO violent measures and would protest be-
forehand against their employment. This
is believed to be an attempt to make
Great Britain alone responsible for any
