ORDERED TO SANTO DOMINGO.
In tho General Interest of Peace and
to Protect American Citi-


London, Jan. 9.-The Machias has
been ordered from San Juan to Santo
Domingo. She left that place few
DAYS ago to secure coal at San Juan,
and it is deemed well to have naval
vessel on hand to protect American
interests in case any trouble follows
the attempt of the French naval com
mander at Santa Domingo to enforce
settlement of the pending French
claim of 100000.
1t is not believed that there is any
chance of conflict between the
French and American naval officers
in the execution of their instructions,
but apparently the United States min
lister at Santo Domingo bel eves that
in the interest of peace there should
be a larger naval force than one vessel
there during this exciting time.
The news that success has attended
popular subscription to raise the
100000 to pay the claim is also regard
ed as tending to avert danger of the
adoption of forcible measures by the
French war ships commander.

THE PLAGUE AT HONOLULU.
The Board of Health Adept Strin..

Incur Press Censure.

Honolulu, Jan. 1, via San Francisco,
Jan. 9.-Seven additional cases OF
plague have developed since last adj
vices, making 13 cases all told to cate
Three cases were discovered on the
night of the 2Sth ult., and four cases
have "cen reported during the past rs
hours.
The board of health has decided TO
take radical steps to stamp out the
scourge. A portion of the infected
district was condemned and burned to
the ground yesterday. The future
policy of the health authorities will be
TO destroy any infected buildings.
The board of health here is severely
criticized by the two leading papers
kere-tfe Star and the Advertiser. In
short, these journals claim that the
members of the health board appear
to be incompetent, and, therefore, are
incapable of handling the present trou-
Die. There is still feeling of doubt
as to the nature of the disease. The
majority of intelligent people do not
consider it plague. But the fact re-
mains that the victims are stricken
and die very suddenly

BUBoNIc PLAGUE AT MANILA.
Surgeon Greenleaf Cables that Thr &c
Cases of Bubonic Plague Have
Been Discovered.

Washington, Jan. 9.-1he plague has
broken out in Manila beyond doubt.
as appears from the following cable
gram received by Surgeon General
Sternberg:
Manila, Jan. 6.-Three bubonic ma
tives.
"GREENLEAF."
The signer is Col. Greenleaf, assist
ant surgeon general ard chief sur
gcon in the Philippines.
1t was suspected last week that the
disease had obtained fcothold in Ma
Mia, but it was not until Col. Green
leafs report that the fact was estab-
iished. The 6rst effect will probably
be to have quarantine laid upon all
shipping coming from Manila. The
town viii be placed under the most
rigid sanitary regulations, and this
work will be undertaken by Col.
Greenlcaf, pending the arrival at Ma
Mia of the marine hospital service OH
GERS, now ON the way. Gen. Sternberg
says that Col. Greenleaf is exceptional
ly well fitted to cope with the present
emergency, and he has no doubt that
the disease will soon be stamped out
It is noted that the cases of plague re-
ported are confined to the native class,
and it is said that that has been the
cases in Asia where the disease has APP
paared. 1t is notably true of Hong
Kong, where it has existed for many
months, without causing, any consid-
cradle fatality among the European
population. 1t was probably from
Hong Kong that the disease found its
way to Manila. The medical officers
have been all along on the watch to
prevent this, but owing to the close
ness of traffic carried on by native
junks and dhows, the ultimate intro,
duction of the disease into Manila was
inevitable.

ce,. vbalIen ACCUSES senator Harrel
of Obtaining Money Under
Fnlsc Pretenses.

Louisville, KY, Jan. Col. John ID.
Whallen, who is now under bond on
charge of offering $4,000 to Senator >.
B. Harrel for the latter's vote against
VIM. Goebel, in the organization OF the
legislature, yesterday swore out war
rant against Harrel, charging the lat
ter with obtaining money under false
pretenses. Whallen filed lengthy AMI
davit. in which he claims to have been
a victim of misplaced confidence. lie
stated that Senator Harrel came to
him and said that he was against Zoe
bel, but that he (HarreD had already
accepted $500 to vote for Goeoei ana
had promise from Goebel OF the SUI
perintendency of the Hopkinsviile asy-
lum, but that he could not support
Goebel. AS he wanted to repay the
Goebel manager his money and pun
himself on a sure footing he said he
wanted $4,000.
Whallen says that $4,000 of his mon
ey was given Harrel; that Whailen
kept $500 and put the balance IN ooN
$50 of the safety vault of the Louisville
Trust Co., and that Harrel obtained
this money on false pretense, as II
was false that he had already received
$500 from representative of Goebei.
Whallen says that ON his advice a num-
Der of his friends had bet large sums
of money that Goebel would not be
elected governor of Kentucky, and that
after the election, by Whallen's advice,
his friends had bet large sums or
money that Goebel would not be seat
ed by the Legislature.
He says the money paid to Harrel
was his own and paid by him with the
desire to protect himself and his
friends against the loss of money
waeered, and to restore Harrel TO such
position as would enable him, without
pecuniary loss, to act according to
what Harrel represented TO be the true
dictates of his conscience
