INDEMNITY FOR BOYCOTT.
Chinese Will Make a Demand on the
United States Government.

BUTTE, Mont, March 1.-THE boycott Of
the Chinese in Butte by the labor organi-
cations, which has been prosecuted for sew
eral years and is now being investigated in
this city. will result in an important inter-
national question. Ex-United States Sem
ator Wilbur Sanders chief counsel for the
Chinese government, which is seeking to en-
force the injunction, stated to-day that it
had been determined to make demand on
for the financial loss sustained by the Chi
nese by reason of the boycott At the con-
clusion of the injunction hearing the testi-
mony will be sent to the Chinese minister
at Washington, who will formulate a de-
mand for indemnity and present it to the
secretary of state. A great deal of testi-
mony has been introduced before Examiner
Blake showing that the business of Chinese
in Butte during the past three years has
been ruined by the boycott.

Buccaneer Missing.

HAVANA, March d7.-GeneraI Arolas has
called the colonies and chiefs of volunteers
together and has ordered them to drill and
otherwise train their men in military exer-
cises.
1t is asserted that only the correspondents
here of the Madrid impartial and the editor
of the Diario de la Larina were present at
the banquet given at the palace last night
by Captain General Blanco to the officers
of the Vizcaya and Almirante Oquendo, no
other newspaper men being invited. The
guests included the high officials of the au-
economist government. All the approaches
to the palace were held by the Orden Pub
leo Guards. VINO were also in force opposite
the palace. and only allowed the passage of
carriages containing people on their way to
or from the banquet. The foreign and other
newspaper correspondents were allowed to
go TO the censor's Office in charge of the
Orden Publ!co Guards.
General Blanco, at the banquet, toasted
''The King. the Queen Regent, the army
and the navy of SPAIN" He said: The
present generation will never see another
banner than that of Spain at the entrance
TO the Gulf of Mexico. That banner, rep
resentIng civilization, progress. liberty, hui
mainly and religion, will be eternal, like
that of the first American nation" These
sentiments were received with shouts OF
approval and cheers. Admiral Manterola,
responding on behalf OF the navy, said: In

HAVANA, via Key West, March 17-Last
night on the occasion of General Blanco's
banquet to the officers of the Vizcaya and
the Almirante Oquendo and the members
of the autonomist government with the
correspondent of the Madrid Impartial as
the only newspaper guest, the palace was
more carefully surrounded by soldiers and
police thar ever before, even in the time
of Weyler. 1t was very evident that a dy-
Mantle plot or something similar was
feared. American correspondents, when
seeking the censor, were ushered upstairs
into the presence of that functionary be-
tween two members of the Orden Publico.
One correspondent protested, saying that
the uniforms of his custodians might well
be discarded for petticoats.
Last evening small bills in two forms, one
signed "A Few Volunteers and the other

about the streets inveighing in bitter and
even obscene terms against Senator Money
and Congressman Cummings, well as
several correspondents, saying in substance
that their presence in Havana was an lin
suit to Spaniards," and asking how long 1t
was to be endured and ending with such
phrases as Death to these Americans
Throw them into the water!' The circu-
lars were probably fakes
The question of the expulsion of several
American correspondents who are very OBJ
noxious to the authorities is again being
seriously considered, now that the court of
inquiry has left Havana. Clippings from
the papers they represent have been in
closed, with Spanish translations, to the
palace officials, accompanied by demands for
their instant deportation.
1t really SENS as If now, for the first time,
the probability of an open breach with the

place great faith in the published report
that Emperor William and the triple alli-
ance will interfere to prevent American in
PREVENTION in Cuban affairs. Despite the
strong feeling, however, the city is quiet,
and thus far there are no authentic ac-
counts of insults offered to Americans here.

Corners on the face and the wind. Con-
norS seemed unable to reach Barry, anu
every one or the latter's blows reached the
mark. and reached it hard. Barry swung
hard with his left, catching Connors on the
jaw and sending him to the floor. He was
up in an instant. however, and proceeeSS eS,
broke away from a clinch Connors landed
his left on the eye, and both landed right
swings on the head Barry put his left
hard on the Kidneys and then peppered
Connors until the latter could hardly stand.
He was bleeding profuSely and tottered as
he went to his corner.
Sixth Round-Barry landed his left on the
jaw, staggering Connors; then he put ms
right hard on the jaw, a right on the ear,
and another right on the jaw without re-
turn. Connors was getting very groggy,
and Barry rushed him to the ropes, hitting
him all over the face and head with right
and left swings When Connors broke away
Barry followed him up with a left on the
mouth, a left on the jaw. Then came
succession of swings on the jaw that soon
had ConnorS nearly helpless. He was going
fast, but stuck to his work and fought back
to the last When the gong sounded for the
end of the limit he was hardly able to keep
his feet, and it was only a question of a
short time when he would have been put
out. He was clearly outclassed by Barry,
but from first to last made clean, hard
and gritty fight.
In the first fight of the evening Harry
Harris, of Chicago, secured the decision
from Link Pope, of Streator, Ill. The men
Billy Stiff and AL shrosbree heavy
weights of Chicago, came next for six
rounds at 168 pounds, the former getting
the decision.
George Kerwin, of Chicago, and Otto
Sieloff, of Detroit fought draw of six
rounds. Kerwin, weighed 1882 and sieloff
135. Kerwin did the most effective work
throughout the fight and Sieloff was bleed
ing freely, while Kerwin did not have
mark.
In the first round of the bout between
Jack Everhart, of New Orleans, and Kid
McGlynn, of Philadelphia, Everhardt
dropped McGlynn with a right swing OF, on
the face. McGlynn was strong at the t1nlSh
and caught Everhardt a hard right on the
face as the round ended In the second and
third Everhardt had all the best of it. Nc
Glynn, who, it is said, had not trained a
day, showed great courage and skill and
sent Everhardt's head back three times
with right counters. McGlynn was bleeding
from the right eye at the close of the third.
McGlynn was sent down with a stiff right
in the jaw in the first half of the fourth
and then Everhardt put it all over him, Nc
Glynn being groggy at the close. McGlynns
never had chance after the starting OF
the fifth round and Everhardt battered him
all over the ring. The police stopped the
fight after two minutes McGlynn hardly
being able to keep his feet.

HONEY-BEE POISON.
Experiments Made by n German Sci
entiSt-ChemIcnI and Toxic
Properties.

The chemical and toxic properties of
the poison of the honey bee have been
a subject for long study by a German
scientist, DR.. Jose Zanger. During his
Investigations DIR. Zanger employed 25,-
600 bees. He found that the fresh poi
son is clear, like water, of an acrid re-
action, bitter taste, and of a fine aro-
matte flavor. On evaporating and dry
ing at a temperature of 100 degrees
centigrade (212 degrees Fahrenheit), a
gummy residue is left. 1t is soluble in
water; with alcohol it forms an emul-
sion-like mixture. The aromatic odor
is due to volatile substance, which dis
appears on evaporation, and is not
poisonous. The poisonous constituent
is not destroyed by short boiling, nor
by drying and heating the residue to
212 degrees Fahrenheit, nor by the di-
luted acids or alkalies. DR.. Zanger has
proved the existence of formic acid, but
he has Elso proved that there is not the
polsGI Gus principle. The latter is an
organic base, soluble with difficulty in
water, but kept in solution by an acid.
On the healthy skin neither the bee
poison or two per cent. solution of the
poisonous principle has any effect, but
they act as powerful irrtants on the
mucuous membranes. His tests, made
on rabbits and other animals, show
tha: when the poison is brought in con-
tact with the eye there follows lachry-
nation, hyperemia, chemosis and Group
Gus membranes in conjunction. The
general condition is also affected; the
animals become melancholy, take no
food, but are very thirsty, and the urine
shows small amounts of aIbumen.

ABOUT THE SMALL GUNS.
They Play Most Important Part In
HerbOr Defense Where Great
Gums Would he Useless.

Much has been written of the big guns
that were to defend the harbors. In the
system Of defenses the smaller guns
play most important part, both to sup
Plement the work of the great rifles
and to be used against bodies of men
who otherwise might carry the works
by assault. For direct service against
attack by men the great guns are use
less. Their value is altogether in the
power of destruction possessed by them,
says the New York Press.
The smaller guns of the United States
artillery service are made in scores of
styles and are designed for all the diff
ferent kinds of service for which q gun
can be needed.
Among the smaller arms witch have
been adopted by the ordnance depart
