THIEVES ARE CAUGHT.
Members of Scotsman Crew Arrested
With Plumber on Them.

Montreal, Oct. 2-The list of the
ScOtsman's dead remains unchanged
Rev Dr. Chalmers, the Congregational
missionary Of Hong Kong, who was re-
ported missing last evening, has been
located. He is on board the Dominion
line steamer Ottoman, which arrived at
Quebec this morning, bringing Dr.Chal-
mers, four other passengers and % OF
the ScOtsman's crew. The captain, the
chief and second and fourth officers,
still remain by the ship. and it is sup
posed that all the passengers and crew
have been taken off Change Island.
The feature of the day has been the
arrest CT % members of the Scotsman s
crew, laden with plumber. They arriv-
ed in Montreal this morning on the
steamer MCntfort. On the wharf wait
ing to receive them, were 20 police Off
GERS. The policemen were kept con-
cealed until the gangways were along
side, when they suddenly swarmed on
board and in a second had rounded up
the ScOtsman's crew. In was done so
quickly that the men had no opportun-
ity of Kidding themselves of any traces
OF guilt Half a dozen patrol wagons

the sailors were hustled, amid the jeers
and Kisses of a large crowd which had
gathered.
Throw them into the river" was the
cry that went I'D.
Had it not been for the presence of
the police the threat would probably
have been carried into effect The men
were taken to the Central police station
and there stripped When the search
was ended there remained not the
slightest doubt Of the stories of pillage
and violence told by the unlucky pas
sengers on the Scotsman.
Among the goods found were diamond
rings, watches, brooches, bracelets,
chains, earrings, jewelry of every kind,
ladies dresses, silks and satins, men's
wearing apparel and even a ladies seal
skin sack was discovered in the bundle
of one of the men. Private papers were
even included in the prey The will of
On another was found a handsome and
costly lOcket, on which was engraved
the name of a woman who is numbered
among the dead. The value of the ar
ticles recovered is placed at s., 900. Some
Of the men denied having anything in
had 800 worth of jewelry sewed in the
inside of his underwear. Others were
quite frank and handed out what they
had without hesitation.
Judging by the stories told by some
of these men, the rocks on the morning
after the wreck were streWn with jew
elry and wearing apparel
The Grecian came in about noon and
from her the police took nine cattle
men who were on the Scotsman. Upon
one man only was anything of an in
eliminating nature found.
The Ottoman, which is due here to-
morrow, has 26 of the crew on board
and the police expect another haul. 1t
is given as reason why more stolen
jewelry was not found on the sailors
from the Grecian that when the ship
touched at Quebec half a dozen police
the thieves took alarm and threw their
plumber overheard. A diver is to be
sent down in the morning to search the
bottom where the ship lay.

FRANCE SIDES WITH BOERs
Always Opposed to the Highest Civil
Iization.

New York, Oct. "A dispatch to the
Times from Paris says:
With war between Great Britain and
TransVaal imminent French opinion as
to it's justification and probable issue
is beginning to express itself. France
sympathizes with Transvaai republic
on the same grounds, with the same
motives, and in the same language, as
she did with Spain during the Ameri-
can war. France is always against the
nation which has the highest cfviliza-
ton, for it is that which she fears.
She is against Great Britain today
because she fears the power of that
nation and is irritated at having to
count with the opinion, policy and
commercial of her neighbor across the
channel
But that is the sole reason, and much
as she pretends, or. rather, as the prin-
cipal press organs pretend. to the con-
trary, she does not seriously believe
that the Beers will beat the British or
their side.
1 have excellent reason for stating
that the French government, though
silent on the subject for fear of irritat-
ing the nationalist press, is well pleased
to see a European power overriding ma
tive pretensions in Africa, which if only
acceded to, would render the opening up
of Africa an impossibifity. The French
people would have as much to lose as
anybody in the near future by tri-
unnph of Kruger. Whatever inter-
feres with her progress in Africa" said
an influential statesman to me today,
will have to be swept away whether
it comes from Boer or blackman-"

WANT DEMOCRAT HELP.
Big Brewers Desire the Internal Tax
on Beer Lowered.

Chicago, Oct. 2.-Fhe Record says:
Milwaukee brewers have started an
agitation for a reduction Of the internal
tax on beer. It is now 81 a barrel and
the brewers want the tax reduced to 81.
With this object in view. the brewers
are sounding Democratic politicians as
to the chances of having the Demo-
cratic national convention adopt
alsnlr demandine a reduction on the
beer tax. The hope is entertained that
the Democratic platform makers, Tor
the purpose of existing the powerful
influence of the brewing interests or
the TTnited states on the side of the
Democratic party, viii do what the
brewers want.
As an offset the brewers suggest that
the Democrats incorporate IN tneif ha-
fional nlafform a declaration demand
ing a constitutional amendment which
viii enable Congress to enact an income
tax law.

psreutly those of children, though some
who saw them contended that they
were those of grown persons belonging
to pigmy race. The smallest of them
seemed to disprove this theory and
confirm the belief that they were
children as the teeth had just conmen-
ced to push through the gums of the
jaws. A cotton blanket was fe;.nd
wrapped about them, this being also
in an excellent state of preservation,
and unlike most articles found in this
way did not crumble when exposed to
the air. The portion of this blanket,
which was between the bodies and
the ground floor of the chamber was
rotten. but the remainder was intact
and quite strong. A string of beads
thirty-six inches long was also found
with the bodies, but the string crumbled
when picked up allowing the beads to
fall to the ground.
The chamber in which this find was
made seemed to be perfectly air tight,
the plastered walls, the solid walls of
nlasonery being hermetically sealed by
means of the. slab, having precluded
the entrance of any air to the resting
place of the dead.
Mr.. Love has found some of the
most wonderful specimens of a pre-
historic nature there has ever been dis
covered in the territory. One of the
largest spear heads, if not the largest,
ever found in tie territory was dis
covered by him. Other articles of I'M
usual value Were also discovered. and
these. together with the finding of shis
walled cham Der and contents, leads to
the belief that at this point was the
residence of some great chief or king,
rs the ordinary burying places Of the
pre- historic people were not hewn oHt
of the side of the mountain ans en-
close d with air tig hit walls.
What find il would prove and how
it would lift the veil of mystery which
surrounds these ancient ruins If some
historical tablets could be found.
With all the discoveries yet made the
history of these people and the age in
which they lived. are matters of mere
conjecture and theory. Nothing what
ever has been discovered to definitely
outline their character or the period of
the worlds history in which they oc-
cupied this country.-Journal Miner.

Monthly Review of Trade Conditions
For March IN Southern
California.

The business at distributing points
throughout the country during the
past month showed quieter tone.
Unfavorable weather ,tricted the
movement in merchandise aud affec led
the retail trade Disadvantage ously
The excitement in iron and steel is
abating, attributed to lack Of supplies
and no lack OF demand.
The textile situation remains almost
unchanged. Strikes closed several of
the largest cotton mills in Providence
and Norwich.
Wheat has fuctuated in response to
contradictory rumors from the spring
wheat states. On tho whoe the prico
situation romans favorable along the
last of staples, while trade measures, as
bank clearing statistics, railroad earn
ings, exc, are most encouraging.
In our Immediate district tie past
month has made a complete change in
the outlook for farmer and horticul-
turist. A good rainfall in the lowlands
and heavy SHOWS in tho mountains re-
moved the threatuiug dangers of dry
year. From all seciiors come satisfy
ing reports. A good crop of hay ana
farm produce generally is assured and
a fair crop OF barley over an un
usually large acreage Fruit buds are
setting well and Indications point TO Il
fairly full crop. Eastern fruit men
prophesy lively demand aud good
prices owing to ravages OF late frosts
in Eastern and Southern States. The
baby reach double that of an: other
year. There will be 4 good crop Of
beans but owing to the holding off of
the rain some of the bean land had
been seeded to grain. There is great
activity in the peat lands with anticiLa
tion OF greatest year known.
8eemen except those on the hills do
not expect to harvest much honey
The rain came too late to change in
any marked degrees their prospects.
Citrus fruit shipments still continue
Market conditions are still Fuvora bic
but no advance in the good prices that
have been ruling. NGvais are scarce.
The adjustment of the raisin situation
by agreem ment of packers and growers
gives general satisfaction. The full
crop of raisins for 1899, it is thought
will not exceed 1900 carloads. Another
encouragement for the viney ard ist lies
