THE PASSING THRONG.

''In the mad rush TO get to the mines of
the klondike district thousands Of peo-
pie Will pass by known wealth in great
quantities" said an old Alaska miner at
the Butler last night. Il refer 10 the
mines OF Birch creek ana the Circle City
district. You must remember that these
mines We're not discovered till 1894 and that
before the district was well prospected the
kiondlke was discovered and the men at
Circle City abandoned dirt that paid them
from $40 10 s25 per day and STATED over the
ice as fast as they could TO Dawson.
These mines lie entirely within Ameri-
can territory and are not subject TO the I'M
fair and unJustiiiable restrictions that are
being imposed on miners IN Canadian ter
ritory. The character OF the Soil and
country are approximately the same as
the hiondike-tha, is, there are many
points of similarity. Fortunes have been
taken out OF the Circle City diggings by
the pioneers in that field. But the coun-
try was simply scratched over. There
never were more than 5000 men in the
camp. and it is practically deserted now.

son last winter in order 10 get food"

general subject of conversation was the
uncertainty as to Manila.
Sinister speculations were indulged in.
and it was pointed out that there were
trading steamers under the British flag
in Manila bay on Sunday. AS apparently
none of them left after the naval battle.
it looks as though they apprehended dan
ger in passing out by Corrgador Island.
They can hardly be awaiting cargoes If
the town has been bombarded, while there
would be plenty of foreigners in that event
anxious to embark.
1t is not believed that Commodore Dewey
has met with disaster, but it is the univer-
sal opinion that he has encountered 1unex-
pected resistance and is not in a position
to spare vessel to carry dispatches.
Another suggestive explanation is that
Commodore Dewey has not succeeded in
obtaining control of the land telegraph
lines to Bolinao connecting Manila with the
Hong Kong cable

SAVANNAH GA SATURDAY. MAY 4 1885,

announced that Uncle Sam had ordered
the stranger to heave to.
The liner obeyed and the Morrill, and
the Association Press dispatch boat start
ed in a neck and neck race for the big
prize.
In the meantime, a boat from the Annap-
oils had boarded the FTenchman, as the
stranger proved to be.a On board the liner
a crowd of excited passengers pressed
anxiously about the vessels side. From
the south the wicked gray huh of the Viii
mington, with her men at quarters, and
the deleately lined Newport, were loom
ing up rapidly. A moment or 50 later the
three warships lay by till the boat from
the Annapolis started back from the liner
to the gunboat. Then suddenly, to the
establishment of all on board the warships
the Frenchman blew long, querulous
whistle and put on full steam ahead, point
ing straight to the entrance Of Havana
harbor.
A sharp word of command rang out on
board the Annapolis and in less time than
Ii takes to pencil these words her crew
were at quarters and the muzzle of every
gun of her starboard broadside was point
ing in deadly earnest straight at the rum
away. Then the big aftergun roared forth
a hoarse order. while the crews Of the 9TH
er guns looked up anxiousy, eager TO fol-
low suit. But the warning note had its
effect. The big liner again stopped her
engines and then put them going astern,
white columns of steam from he's escape
pipe telling of the high pressure below
pleading for release.
The Wilmington and the Morrill, had al
ready started across the Lafayettes path,
but their services were not necessary, for
the Frenchman no longer dared to make
a run for 1t.
Then there was long spell Of wig wag-
glng between the Annapolis and the Will
mington in the dusk of the evening, the
sun dropping behind the horizon and the
night falling over the scene like a drop
curtain, for there is no twilight in these
attitudes.
Later electric signals succeeded the
flags and there was a nervous period of
rigging and blinking red and white ques-
tions and answers.
The signalling continued for almost an
hour, possibly longer, while the puzzled
dispatch boats gathered in the weak
moonlight almost rolling their boilers out
in the northeast swell as they impatient
ly awaited the solution of the signal con-
sultation.
At 7:45 o'clock the Annapolis and the
Wilmington lowered boats and the officers
boarded the Frenchman.
The examination of the liner was soon
over, and the boats had returned to their
respective ships, prize crew from the
Wilmington was put on board the Lafay-
ette. and at Sis o'clock last night the big
Frenchman was headed north, and was
escorted to Key West under the guns of
the Wilmington.

TWO SMALL PRIZES.

Couple of Spanish Fishing schOOn-

prize crew on board and sent her in
