A NEW COMET.
G. d. Perrire Discovers It With the
Lick TELESCOPE.

SAN JOSE, March 20.-The second
comet of the year was discovered at
the Lick Observatory this morning
about 4:35 o'clock by c. D. Perrine
1t is situated in the western portion
of the constellation Pegasus, south of
the star Iota It's position at 80 min
utes % seconds, Greenwich mean time.
was right ascension y hours Is min
utes 1860 and declination north 16 de-
grees, 40 minutes, 23.3 seconds. 1t is
moving north one degree per day, and
east nearly 4 minutes of time
The comet is bright as a star Of the
seventh magnitude, and can be seen
with a very small telescope. The head
is round and about two minutes of an
arc in diameter, with bright central
condensation ten seconds in diameter.
This nucleus is not stellar, but has a
graduated appearance. A tail about
one degree long extends away from the
sun.
AS soon as two more observations
can be secured it's orbit will be calcu-
lated at the Lick Observatory. Until
this is done little can be said of it's flu
ture movements.
The last six comets have been con-
secutively discovered at the Lick OBJ
servatorY by Assistant Astronomer c..
D. Perrine.

THE NELLIE G. THURSTON.
Some Anxiety Felt on Account of
Her Non-Arrival.

SAN FRANCISCO March 2O.-Some
anxiety is expressed here for the safety
of the schooner Nellie G. Thurston now
100 days out from New York, with a
party of Klondikers. The schooner
Thomas F. Negus, which arrived here
yesterday from New Haven, Conn, re-
ported that the Thurston left Playa
Parda Cove in her company, but that
when about eighty miles off shore they
were separated by furious hurricane.
The passengers on the Negus expect
ed to meet the Thurston here.
The Thurston carried nineteen pas
sengers, among whom are Mrs n.
Bowles, the only lady passenger, and a
son of New York brewer named
Mills. Shipping men seem to think that
the missing schooner will put into this
port within a few days, and express
the opinion that she has met with ad-
verse weather

BUYING ALL THE COAL.
England Massing a Fleet of War
ships in Chinese Waters.

TACOMA, March 20.-Officers of the
Northern Pacific steamship Victoria,
which arrived last night from China
and Japan, report that the British Gov
eminent is massing a very powerful
fleet of Warships in Chinese waters,
and that the British are buying all the
coal coming to those waters for their
men-of-war; and so anxious are they
to get it that they send vessels to sea
and there halt Golfers and bargain for
their cargoes, paying gilt-edge prices if
necessary. The British are said to be
buying all the available coal from the
Suez Canal to the northern coast of
Siberia, as they do not want to use
Japanese coal.
Purser Mcdonald says there are now
thirty five or forty British warships
on the China station, and the fleet has
been considerably augmented during
the last few weeks Among the latest
arrivals was the big marine fighter

OFFICIALLY DENIED.
Captain Barber Did Not Take the
Report to the President.


KEY WEST. March 20.-The Court
Of Inquiry, according to Rear-Admiral
Sicard, viii continue its work through
the coming week. as it is not ready 70
make d report on the Maine disasters
The statement that Captain Albert
S. Barber carried the report to Wash
ington is officially denied. The object
of his flying visit to Key West was moi
ascertained until to-day.
1t can be authoritatively stated that
Captain Barker has nothing to do
with the Court of Inquiry He came
here on Friday from Tampa, on a spe-
cial mission to investigate the harbor
defenses, following out some lines sug-
gested by General Wilson, Chief of
Engineers, in his recent inspection of
land Notifications. Captain Barker's
plan when he left here last night was
to confer with Commander McCalla of
the Marblehead, who is now at Tampa,
and he will probably remain there a
day or two. Captain Barker formerly
commanded the Oregon.
It is impossible to say definitely
whether any synopsis of the findings
of the court up to date has been sent
to Washington. The notion prevails
here that this has been done, but no
official confirmation is obtainable.
That the final report has been sent to
Washington can be definitely denied
Captain Sampson and Lieutenant
Commander Mark remained on board
the Iowa to-day. Captain Chadwick
and Commander Porter
did not leave the New York. The court
is expected to reconvene tomorrow on
the Iowa
The two unidentified bodies from the
Maine brought here last night were
buried to-day in the City Cemetery
with simple services. A division Of
blue jackets followed the hearse.
Colonel Fernando Saliedo of the in
surgent army arrived this morning from
Nassau on the schooner Hattie OAR
ling. With a companion he left the
shores of Cuba in an open boat, and
after an eight days tempestuous pas
sage they landed at Nassau half-dea
from exposure
Colonel Saliedo is on sick leave His
companion is carrying dispatches from
General Maxine Gomez to the Junta
in New York
Tomorrow the Indiana is expected
from the Dry Tortugas, and that sta
ton will then be left with the Texas
and the Massachusetts, which did not
sail yesterday, as was expected These
battleships will take off more ammuni-
ton, and unless their orders are unex-
pectedly changed will leave in a day or
two for Hampton Roads.

FRENCH DEMANDS IN CHINA.
The Charge D'Affaires Did Moro
Than He Was Authorized To.

LONDON. March 21.-The Chinese
ambassador visited the Foreign Office
Saturday evening by special invitation.
1t is supposed that the French demands
in China were the subject of discus
sion. There are some doubts as to the
extent of the demands.
A dispatch to the Daily MaiP' from
La GaZalli, Japan, mentions a report
that the Yang Use Kiang Valley is in
cluded, which tends to confirm the re-
port from Peking that France has de-
manded that China shall not cede any
portion of the province of Kwer Chau,
this province being within the valley.
The Times" has a dispatch from
Picking, however. which explains that
the demands apply only to the three
provinces, Kwang Tung. Kwang ST and
Yum Nan
Discussing the matter editorially, the
Times suggests as an explanation Of
these discrepancies that M. Dubail, the
French Charge d'Affaires at Picking,
has demanded more than he was au-
thorized to demand and that NJ. Hano-
tauX in consequence has disavowed him
in the statement issued yesterday say
ing there was no connection between
the demands of the French Government
in China and the Chinese loan.

MONTREAL, March 20.-To-day
Montreal stands in imminent danger of
the repetition of the disastrous flood of
1856. when hundreds of thousands of
dollars of damage was done. For some
days past the water in the St. Lawrence
River has been rising steadily, until to-
night. it has touched the record poiat.
Along Commissioner street a huge
stone wall shuts out the water. On top
of this is a wooden dyke and the water
is now half way up the dyke. 1t is a
comparatively fiimsy structure and
should it go. all the cellars in the lower
part of the city would be flooded.
Below the city, the water has risen
above the level of the road skirting the
river and the houses are filed half way
t. the ceilings of the first story. Along
Craig street, near Victoria Square, the
cellars of some of the big wholesale dry
goods houses have been flooded, but The
damage there will be light as all goods
have been moved out The two pump
ing stations of the city are working ut
their full capacity in the hope of keep
ing the oVerladen sewers from backing
up, and so far with tOlerable success.
Along Mill street the first floors of haIf
a dozen large manufacturing industries
are flooded and 1000 people will he
thrown out of work until the water sub
sides The river in front of the harbor
is covered with floating ice. If the jam
in the river below the city gives way
all danger of a flood will be over, but at
present there is little hope of this TAX
ing place and a disastrous overflow is
generally looked for.

TRYING TO BREAK A TRUST.
Outside Producers Endeavoring to
Lower the Price of Oil.

Los ANGELES, March 20-There is
evidence of plot to disrupt the local
association of oil producers. 1t is to
be a combine of producers who are
now outside of the association and their
OBJECT is to force the price down, as
they now have big contracts for future
delivery and hope to buy at a small
price and reap quick and sure har-
vest
There is large quantity of oil now
held in storage tanks here and prices
are kept up by preventing over produc-
ton by the trust. No new contracts
of Importance are reported lately. San
Francisco takes about l 900 barrels a
month This could be doubled, accord
ing to the trustees of the Producers
Association, if the uncertainty of future
prices could be removed and more cars
obtained.

STRANGLED HIMSELF.
A Navy Surgeon Commits Suicide
While Insane

WASHINGTON, March 20. DIR.
George Clinic Hubbard, Assistant Sur
geon u. S. N, committed suicide at st.
ElizaDeth's Insane Asylum shortly
after midnight last night by strangling
himself with the cord of his dressing
gown. DR.. Hubbard was u years old.
Till a week ago he was attached to the
San Francisco.
Early in the year he showed Slight
signs OF arrangement and was sent
home from the Mediterranean station
and placed at St Elizabeth. He re-
allied his condition and felt it keenly,
but he was never violent and his sui
cidal turn was quite unlocked for.
Rear Admiral Benham and an uncle
of the dead man have made the flu
neral arrangements
