A STORY OF HORROR.
Eleven OF Ships Crew Eaten by Can
ntbals on the Island OF Now GuInea

nibals on the Island OF Now Guinea.
Vancouver, B. c., Jan. 80.-After
escaping death by drowning, IL of the
crew of the ship Manbare were cap.
tured and eaten by cannibals of New
Guinea.
The Manbare was bound for Sydney,
Australia, when it was caught in the
terrible gale OF December. Near Cape
Nelson 1t began to sink. The crew, l8
all told, left the vessel in two boats,
and soon became separated. One boat,
containing IL men, was finally thrown
ashore 10 miles from the cape.
The sailors were seized by natives
from the interior and hurried off to
tie village of the chief. One man,
James Greene, escaped. The sailors
we're stripped and bound and killed,
one each day. A wild orgie was par
ticipated in by at least 100 savages,
who had gathered for the feast.
In several cases the sailors were tor
tured by the old women and children
OF the tribe. The eyes of one were
gouged out. The doomed men stoically
watched the elaborate preparations for
their death. A huge pot filled with
boiling water was used for the feast,
which on the first day was prolonged
away into the night. In most cases
the men were beheaded, their head
being stuck on poles and paraded be-
fore the men who were to suffer the
same fate.
Greene was rescued by a steamer
after tramping without food a day and
night to reach the coast. The scenes
of horror he had witnessed turned his
hair snowy white.

Americans, the Cubans make simple

EAGAN GUILTY AS CHARGED.
The Necessary Penalty Is Dismissal
From the Army.

Washington, Jan. 31.-General Ea-
gan, commissary-general of subsist-
ence, has been found guilty of the
charges of conduct unbecoming an Off
Ger and gentleman, and of conduct to
the prejudice of good order and disci-
pline, and of the specifications thereto,
and has been sentenced to dismissal
from the United States army; but with
a recommendation from the court for
the exercise of executive clemency.
Under the regulations, the court, hav-
ing reached the conclusion that the ao-
cused was guilty, had no choice in
selecting penalty, the regulations
prescribing absolutely that one punsish-
ment- dismissal - for the offense.
Therefore, the only hope for General
Eagan is in the direction of communal
ton, mitigation Or disapproval by the
president.

NEWS OF NORTHWEST
Items OF General Interest Cleaned
From the Thriving Pacific
States.

The government measure recently
enacted into law, and aimed at the
Americans in the Atlin district, pro-
yides for the amendment of the placer
mining act, providing that no one who
is not British subject shall take out
a free miners license, and that no
company shall have the same license
unless incorporated or registered under
the laws of the province. The act is
not retrospective. Licenses take out
previously may be renewed, but under
renewed license no one is entitled
to take up new claims. Section 8,
which is the most ar-reaching, pro-
vides that no free miner after the pas
sage of this act shall hold any claim
under the British Columbia placer
mining act or an interest therein as
trustee or otherwise for any person
who is not a British subject, or for
any corporation not authorized TO take
out a free miners certificate. A
miners license taken out by any person
not authorized to do SO by this section
shall be null and void. This section
shall not affect free miners licenses
issued before the coming into force of
this section, and such licenses may be
renewed from time to time. The only
necessities for person to become
naturalized are that the applicant is
person Of good oharac ter and has le-
sided in the Dominion for three years.
