TROUBLESOME TO BATHERS.
An Unusually Large Number OF Jelley
Fish Now In the Bay.

The summer residents along the
shores OF the bay are looking for some
body or something which will exter-
inmate the poisonous jellyfsh. which at
this particular time swarm about every
foot of water In the bay. To bathers
these creatures are particularly annoy
ing, for TO many their touch is vio-
lent poison. a young man residing at
| Nayatt was stung on the head by one
| OF these jellynsh a day or two ago. ana
| he was taken with delirium and was
very sick before he recovered
The number of these apparently use
less masses of jeilynsh seems 10 be fa'
more numerous this summer than eve
before. and yet nobody has so far beef
able TO account for the visitation. bu
everybody would like to see the more o
less dangerous nuisance disappear.

AGAINST AN
ALLIANCE
Explorer Stanley Gives
His Opinion.
NO NECESSITY FOR 1T.
True Friendship Of the Two Nations
Cannot Be Forced.
ARE GRAvITATING TOGETHER.
NO NECESSITY FOR IT.
ARE GRAvIrArlNG TOGETHER

Chicago, Aug. 24.-Henry M. Stanley.
the famous explorer. journalist and
author, once an American citizen and
now a member of the English House
of Commons, has placed himself ON
record as opposed to an Anglo-Ameri-
can alliance. In letter received py
Major Pond, the Lyceum Theatre man.
ager. now in this city, Mr.. Stanley dis
couraged any agreement between the
two nations. lie recognizes the fact
that England and America are bound
together. but in spite of that fact. ne
advises caution and thinks II 10 the
interest of neither nation TO adopt
lettering and entangling alliance.
Ever since Joseph Chanberlains
speech fayoring an Anglo-American al
lance. Mr.. stanley has been repeat
| edly asked py both Engllshmen ana
| Americans to express his OPINIONS.
| Hitherto he has refused and his latest
] letter, which Major Fond has just re-
I ceived, Is the first piece written on
which ne has expressed himself on inc
matter. - ,-
| NV Dear Major-With regard TO this
| Anglo American alliance: 1t is a Sood
| thing and natural thing for both ma
| tions TO come together and shake hands
| and make a league of friendship. but
the Necessity for that is not imperative
on either side. England Is a. psa.s
with the world, though she frets ner-
self now and then. America mas her
enemy at her mercy and nobody Is Is
! going TO interfere with her. Where is
the need for this hurry?
.sThen, naturally, having passed tne
| unreasonable period of my ne IN
America and born In Great , Drl.ain
| feel able to see trife clearer thar
some OF those who are all American OF
English I have not particle OF pre-
tudice. though my duty lies on tni'
side. =,
my opinion is that we must not o.
precipitate. The two nations are ssasi
tatinr together and true frienosnil
| canr,ot be forced. 1t is a slow process
recurring time. There are man
Americans who have not thought ol

who cannot entertain the idea.

MIR. GALLINGER ACCUSED.
Prominent Republican Charges Him
with Violating Civil Service Law.

Exeter y. H., Oct. 27.-Ex-Gov Busiel,
one of the most prominent Republican
in the State, this morning makes charges
against Senator Jacob H Gallinger
Busiel claims Ganinger is violating the
civil service law in endeavoring TO Sc
cure campaign money from Federal Of
fioeholders and produces letters from
Washington to substantiate his charges.
Senator Gallinger is not at present in
the city. His son, w. H GalIinger. when
seen by a Times reporter this morning.
said that while he was not familiar with
the facts in the case, he thought the
charges We're only a continuation of a
series Of attacks made by Busiel on his
father on account Of political animosity
dating back TO the time when he BusieD
was governor. He said his father had
nothing to fear from such attacks as
Bushels following in the State was not
of the representative citizens but of such
men as We're attracted TO him by his
money.
My father is chairman or the State ex-
ecutive committee" said Mr.. Gallinger
1r.. ''he is on the ground, and is per
fectly able to defend himself from such
men as Busiel. 1 am sure there need be
no apprehension on his account"

THE SARANAC IN NEW YORK.
She Was the Only American Vessel
Captured by Sprin.

New York, Oct. 27.-The only American
vessel captured by Spain in the war ar
rived in port yesterday. AS a matter of
fact, she was not an American vessel at
the time of her capture as her owners
had transferred her to an English sub
ject. Her captain, however. did not know
this. and went into the port of noilo,
Philippine Island, flying the American
flag His vessel had on board cargo of
coal consigned to q British merchant
there. She was at once seized by the
Spaniards, and it was only after consider
able negotiation that she was released.
The vessel was the bark Saranac, which
arrived at Iloilo from Newcastle on April
&c, in command of Capt Barnaby.
Capt. Barnaby, who lives in Brooklyn.
and has not been home for fifteen months.
said that he knew nothing of the war
when he entered the harbor at Ioilo. but
soon found out when a Spanish gunboat
came alongside and took possession of the
bark. The Spaniards put a guard on board
the vessel and held her for twenty days.
In this time the guard detail seemed
anxious to see how much damage they
could do. They ripped up the deck and
destroyed part of the canvas on the bark,
as well as ill-treating the captain and the
crew.
Finally, after the Spaniards found out
that the bark was actually under the
British flag, they released her and she
was allowed to repair the damage done
to her in the harbor The Saranac brings
a cargo of sugar to this port.
