A German Corvette Furnishes Body

Admiralty Islands.

Victoria, B. c., Nov. 5.-The German
corvette Moewe, according to advices
from the South seas, has reached sgd
ney, and reports that she was called
on to quell tribal war on one of the
Admiralty islands. Word was re-
ceived by her commander that a sec
tion of fighters armed with rifles from
a pirate had butchered $50 natives
and the Moewe went to the scene. Ar.
irving off the village, landing party
consisting of 12O Germans, put off un-

the rebellious natives. The latter
made a stubborn stand, and returned
the fire of the landing party. Fortu-

three casualties resulted, six of the
natives being shot down. Eventually
the expedition returned to the war
ship, which steamed close into the
beach, and shelled the village with de-

communication in which he says he

that concerted land organized at

lawless element of the community to
interfere with and intimidate voters
on election day.
Superintendent McCullagh says: 81
do not hesitate to state that the ele-
ment engaged in this contemplated
violation of law has been greatly en-
couraged and fortified by the open
advocacy of violence at the polls re-
ported in the daily prints by persons
prominent in political activity. Ths
interference with the voters indicated
in my information will be the blocking
of the polls by organized gangs int
mediately after the opening thereof
by forming in line ostensibly as voters
and applying for ballots under fiC-
titious names, and after being reject
ed to reform again in the rear of
the lire"
Mr.. McCullagh then says that an
open threat has been made that his
deputies will be assaulted if they at
tempt to do their duty.
Chief-of-Police Devery yesterday

used on election day, to all the COM
manders of police precincts in Great
