Those in Authority Miners Hold
Meetings to Protest Complaint to
Be Made at Washington.

Seattle, Wash, July 27-Adyices
were received Wednesday on the
steamer Elihu Thompson, from st.
Michaels, which indicates that the
miners of Cameron and Anvil City are
wrought up to high pitch on account
of the action of United States Com
missioner Shepard, backed by the
United States soldiers. A miners
meeting of nearly 1000 men was dis
persed on July 10 by squad of sold
iers The meeting had been called
after five days notice to protest against
the policy that has been followed in To-
eating claims These miners declare
that ring has been formed to gobble
up all the good properties in the coun-
try. It is charged by the miners who
came in on the Thompson Wednesday
that the machinery of the federal gov
eminent on the Yukon has been turned
to illegal practice. The miners are
signing a protest to be forwarded to
Washington. The protest alleges
that the officials at St. MichaePs are
conducting affairs for their own selfish
ends. While the relations between the
miners and officials are at a high ten
sion there has been no resort to force
and no serious trouble is anticipated.

HOW A JUDGE PACIFIES A MOB.
Promises to Hold Special Term OF
Court to Try Rapist.

cambridge, Ca, July 27.-On ac-
count of the excited state of the people
here Sheriff Patterson last night took
John Williams, the negro rapist in jail
here, whose life has been clamored for
by a mob for two days, to Thomasville
for safe keeping. Under the guard Of
the two companies of militia, which ar
rived here Wednesday morning, and
between lines of jeering people, the
negro was taken to the depot and put
on board a Plant Line train. 1t is
thought the trouble is over. The ac-
ton of leading citizens of the town
late Tuesday night in confronting the
mob as it marched to the Jail, saved
the life of Williams. The lynching
party, with dynamite and poles for bat
tering rams, was on it's way to the jail
when Judge Bower and two other
gentlemen stopped the mob and plead
ed with it to let the law take its course
Judge Bower promised special term
Of court to try Williams and promised
speedy justice. After some replies
from the members of the mob, it final
ly disbanded.

WEYLER'S THREATENING TALK.
Former Cuban General Makes Sensa-
tional Speech in Spanish Senate.

Madrid, July 27.-The discussion of
the army bill in the senate yesterday
led to an exciting scene. Gen. Weyler,
arguing against any reduction of the
strength of the army, warned the gov
eminent that the present situation
made a revolution highly probable
since it had never been so easy for the
army and the people to make a COM
mon cause. He himself, he said, had
never thought of heading an uprising,
but it must be confessed that revolu-
lions some times cleared the political
air and worked regenerations. Senior
DatO, minister of the interior, replying,
severely censured Gen. Weyler, de-
claring that a general who with 5000
men had failed to suppress the Cuban
revolution had no right to make a
speech of threats and that any attempt
at a revolution, no matter by whom,
would be proceeded against and pros
ecuted with the utmost rigor of the
laws. The senators warmly applaud
ed Dato's speech. The army bill was
adopted.

Their Face Value.

New York, July 27-The steamship
