ROME, Jan. 14.-With regard to the
visit of Mgr. Ireland, which has caused
so much speculation on both sides of
the Atlantic, I am now in a position to
give some interesting particulars.
Archbishop Ireland, it appears, has at
different times and occasions put him
self forward and made known to the
Pope that he was on very friendly
terms with President Mckinley and had
considerable influence with him.
The Pope, wishing above all things
to preserve peace as far as he pos
sibly could, and to do everything in his
power to avoid the Spanish-American
war, naturally was much impressed by
the ambitious and, to say the least, too
sanguine Archbishop, hence those over
lures which are now historical on the
part of the Vatican to arrange the
Cuban question on some friendly basis
satisfactory to both parties.
These questions Of Intervention, of
bringing about an armistice and other
overtures gave rise to prejudice and to
outspoken opposition in America to the
so-called clerical influence"
Certain it is that If the Pope made
any great efforts at intervention they
signally failed, and it appears, and is
not to be wondered at under the cir
cumstances, that the Vatican is much
displeased at having made overtures
which only invited refusal on the part
of the President to accept them.
Archbishop Ireland is therefore sum-
moned to Rome to explain his action in
undertaking to guide the Vatican on
what appears to have been such insult
ficient grounds for success.
But this is not all The question of
a division between the American party,
which is united to the clerical party of
Canada, on one hand, and the Jesuit
party on the other, will be inquired
into. The American party, which ac-
knowledges the leadership of Mgr. Ire
land and Cardinal Gibbons, is supposed
to be in sympathy with French inf1u-
ence, if any, while the Jesuit party is
supported by Germany.

MURDER LONE PR0SPECT0RS
MINERS HALTED AND ROBBED
OF THEIR SUPPLIES.
The Tribe Has a Grudge Against the
Whites Because Some of Its
Braves Were Shot for
Stealing.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

VICTORIA, Jan. 14-After terribly
rough passage from Lynn Canal the
steamer Amur arrived this morning
with a number of late corners from
Dawson and the trails. Those from
Skaguay bring news that the Indians
in the neighborhood of Porcupine Creek
are very aggressive and are reported
to have murdered a number Of lone
prospectors. A. J. PIantag, recent
arrival at Skaguay from the new
American gold fields, says in the
Skaguay Alaskan that the Siwashes
there are very insolent, and whenever
they catch a prospector alone they
make him "divvy" on grub" and other
supplies, and if he objects they take
what they want through force of num-
bers.
He tells of two men who had pro-
ceeded up the Alsek River on a pros
pecting tour having been robbed by
band of about twenty young bucks.
The prospectors camped one night on
the river bank, some thirty miles above
Haines Mission. No Sign of Indians
was apparent. but suddenly from the
surrounding brush there appeared
gang of Siwashes, who Immediately
proceeded to overhaul the pair s eff
fects and demanded to be given some
of them. To pacify the horde great
amount of supplies was yielded up. The
Indians then went away.
The balance of the prospectOrs' sup
plies was taken far UP gulch and hid
den, because they expected the raid
would be repeated After a two days
stop in their camp they went up the
guIch to get their hidden supplies, in
tending to proceed up the river. But
Indians had stolen everything. There
was nothing to do but turn about and
make for base of supplies.
1t is said that the mysterious disap-
| pearance of many prospectors going
into that country is laid at the door
of these Indians. Mr.. Plantag says
that many have been murdered in the
wilds of that land. The tribe dwelling
! there is the most insOlent of all In
dams of the far north and claim to
have a grievance against the white man

| taught them a lesson in honesty. He
! is said to have shot some who were
stealing from cache. Since then they
! let his stuff alone. However, they have
taken several shots at him and declare
they will make him bite the dust
In the meantime, Indian fashion, they
seek vengeance on any unprotected
prospector who ventures into that sec.
ton.

The Andelana was to have loaded
wheat here next week for Queenstown.
Her coming voyage would have COM
pleted her trip around the world. She
left London about a year ago for New
York, whence she sailed in May for
Shanghai with coal oil. She reached
there on October 10, and arrived in
Port Angeles seventeen days ago. At
that time she was enormously reported
as being the overdue bark Caradoc.
Eppinger G, Co. subsequently chartered
her and she reached here this week.
To be absolutely on the safe side.
Captain Stating should have taken
some wheat aboard as stiffening be-
fore discharging all his ballast. Wheat
vessels loading here and at Portland.
however, have been in the habit Of re-
lying only upon the less expensive log
system of ballast during the interim be-
tween discharging ballast and loading.
Capt. Stating expected to be towed to
his loading berth to-day. Possibly he had
some apprehension of danger by wind,
for last evening he declined an invita-
ton to dine and spend the night ashore,
saving his place was aboard his SHIP
Twelve men left the ship on Wednes-
day. The next day ten of them shipped
on the ship Dirigo for Queenstown.
Apprentice Buck was sent to the hos
pital for an operation, and to that fact
he owes his life. This reduced the crew
to eighteen, of whom not one escaped.
Captain Stating had been the Ande-
lana's master but one year. He had ex-
perienced the usual troubles at sea
during his twenty-five years as mas
ter, becoming captain at 20 years of
age, but it remained for the BALLAST
logs of the Andelana, his empty vessel
and a heavy squall to mar his record
and send him to the sailors grave.
The Andelana line has become known
for i'll luck among shipmasters and un-
derwriters. A few years ago the An
drina went ashore on Vancouver Island.
1t cost $4,000 to clear her of the rocks.
Subsequently the Andera, bound from
the sound to South Africa, was lost at
sea. Then came the Americana. which,
being out 100 days from Hongkong to
the sound her owners paid 70 gufneas
reinsurance on her only to nave her
turn.up safe and sound.
Captain Stailings home was Annapo-
lis, Nova Scotia, where his widow and
three children live. He had been mas
ter of the ships Truro, Colchester, Sa-
vCna and Andorhina.

GENERALISSIMO ACUIN-
ALDO'S ROCKET STICK.

1t begins to look at last as If the
Filipino Instruction would be sup
pressed before the beginning of the
next rainy season. The number of
troops at Gen. Otis disposal is increas-
ing weekly, and he is now enabled to
undertake operations on a scale to
which his resources have not been pre-
viously adequate. The landing of
force under Gen. Wheaton at San Fa
bian, OH Lingayen gulf, may probably
be accepted as the beginning of the
end. This strategic move, the aim of
which is to strike Aguinaldo on the
flank, is likely to be followed by the
dispatch of another expedition to Apar
ri, on the north coast of Luzon, whence
gunboats, pushing up the Cagayan riv-
er, can accompany the soldiers on their
march southwark to Bayombong, which
is temporarily the headquarters of the
rebels. Should this plan be carried out,

north and west, viii converge upon a

DOC SAVES HIS MASTERS LIFE.

East stroudsburg, Pa, Nov. 28.-The
residents of Stauffers, this county,
turned out almost in body last night
to search for Reuben Harps missing
hunter from Wilkesbarre. After search
ing for hours, they found the hunter
unconscious, mangled and bleeding
from decorations of the body Beside
the hunter was the dead body of
black bear of immense size. Everything
pointed to a terrific struggle between
the man and the beast. That Harps
was saved from death was due to his
dog, which gave the alarm, although
clawed and bleeding from his contact
with the bear.
Harps came to Stauffers a few days
ago from Wilkesbarre on a hunting
trip, and on Monday started out for
game, with his dog, valuable one.
He did not return on Monday night,
and, as nothing was heard from him on
The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-11-25

Tuesday the residents of Stauffers be-
came alarmed. The country in that
section is wild, and it is no infrequent
thing to kill wildcats and bears. The
villagers waited anXiously for the miss
ing man. Tuesday evening Harp's dog,
covered with blood and bearing every
evidence of having been in a fight,
crawled into Stauffers.
The animals appearance confirmed
the fears of the villagers and, at the
instigation of Isaac Stauffer, a search
ing party of twenty men was organized.
Armed with guns and lanterns, they
went in search of the missing Harps
All the old hunting places were visited,
and when the hour grew late the
searchers resolved to try the country
about the still waters before giving up.
In dense thicket they found Harps,
who would have been dead in a short
time. As it is, he will probably recov-
ell.

PUGNAcIoUS BUCKS.
Men Are on Duty at Elm Park to Pre-
vent the Death of the Does.

The presence of men armed with clubs
is necessary night and day at the deer
enclosure at Elm Park to prevent the
bucks from killing each other or from
killing the does. The men have been kept
busy at times. They have been obliged to
get into the enclosure and soundly whack
the animals to break up an incipient fight
which would result in the death of one or
the other. The precaution is being taken
on account of lessons learned from other
years. In the last two years, when no
such measures were taken, the oldest
buck has killed doe and a young buck.
