GUNBOAT MACHIAS TO ACT
NO PREMATURE BOMB4RDMEyT
 OFC4PE HAYTIEN.

Commander McCrea Cables the Navy
 Department That He Win See That
 Due Notice is Given the city-HIs Atti-
 tude Endorsed by the State Depart-
 memt-FOreign COnsuIs Threatened
 Taken on Board the Maehias.
 Washington, July 29-The following cablegram dated to-day was received at the navy department this afternoon from Commander McCrea, of the Ma chias, which arrived at Cape Haytien, yesterday:
 Affairs are very disturbed at Cape Haytien. Unorganized mob in the city. Foreign consuls have been threatened. Will give protection on board. I will prevent bombardment without due mo- tice"
 The state department has no hesita- tion in fully approving the energetic and sufficient action of Commander Mo Crea in taking care of the foreign con- suls and in preventing a bombardment without warming. The American and foreign interests in Cape Haytien are large, and an American captain is re- quired by the unwritten law to look af- ter the life and property of other for eign residents as we'll as Americans in such cases. It is said that the rules of international law, as well as the dic- tates of humanity require that proper notice be given before bombardment, in order that women, children and non- combatants may leave the town and carry off their personal belongings. The navy department feels that the Machias is sufflcietly large for the work at hand at this point, trough if there were more such small American gun boats in the gulf and Carribean, a quieting and restraining influence would be exerted over these frequent rebellious outbreaks, involving viola tions of the rules of war and great suf- fering. However there is no naval ves- sel, save those now actually engaged in such service as the Machias, within 1SO0 miles of the various seats of trouble in Central and South America and the West Indies.
 The Machias is a vessel of 1,177 tons, carrying eight four-inch rapid fire guns, and crew of eleven officers and 143 men. While not many men could be spared for landing party, the vessel undoubtedly could lie in the anchorage and cover the town with her guns. It is not believed that there is the slight est danger of an attack upon her by any of the Haytien gunboats, loyal or rebel.

IOWA AND THE TARIFF.
Opposition to Last Years Platform
 Seems Overcome.

Des AIoines. Iowa, July 29.-The with drawal of Lafayette Young, of Des Moines, this evening as candidate for member of the committee on resolutions from the Seventh district is regarded as ending the opposition to the reafirma- ton of last years platform by the re- publican state convention here to-mor- row.
 The objection which has been made to the reaffirmation of last years platform was directed almost entirely to the clause in the trust plank declaring for "any modification of the tariff schedules that may be required to prevent their affording shelter to monopolies.'
 It was held by some that the clause was virtual admission of the democrat ic claim that the tariff fosters trusts. Senators Allison and Dollivar and the entire Iowa delegation in congress are here to attend the convention. The con- vention will meet at 10 o'clock to-mor- row morning.

4 LIBERAL VICTORY.
British Government Loses a Seat in the Commons.

commons
 London, July 29.-The by-election for member of the house of commons to represent North Leeds resulted in the election of Rowland Barran, liberal. MT. Barran received 7,5S9 votes to 6,7S1 cast for Sir Arthur Lawson, conservative. The seat was made vacant by the ele- vation to the peerage of William Law ies Jackson, conservative, who had sat for North Leeds since 1880.
 The loss of the seat for North Leeds in the house of commons has filled the supporters of the new Balfour adminis- tration with dismay. The utmost in- genuity of the editorial writers of the conservative press in quite ineffectual in explaining away the conversion of the tory majority of 2,517 in 1900 into a liberal majority of 758
 The Morning Post, which is the frank est conservative critic of the govern ment, admits candidly that outside of Birmingham area, which it says is a "Chamberlainite' preserve, there is seemingly no seat in the house on whose loyalty the present government can absolutely rely, and the paper be- lieves the country is dissatisfied with the governments educational bill and it's coquetting with protection.
 r The liberal papers this morning con- cur in the opinion that the grain tax and the education bill won them the North Leeds seat, the election having been fought on these two points.

NO AUSTRALIAN NAVY.
! Imperial Govern nm ent Opposed-Latter's Plan Accepted by Premters.

London, Ju yl30.-In a despatch from Sydney the correspondent of the Daily Mail says that E. Barton, prime min ister of the commonwealth of Australia (who is now in London) has notified the government that his suggestion that the Australian contributions should be applied to the formation of the nucleus of an Australian navy has not been re- ceived favorably by the imperial gov- ernment the latter being anxious that the existing arrangement continue with the Australian contribution doubled which would enable the modernization of the navy. Continuing the Daily Mails correspondent says MT. Barton declares also that the conference of col onials premiers has agreed to the latter plan subject to the approval of the fed eral parliament. The feeling here, goes on the correspondent, is very strong in favor of an Australian navy on the ground that it would offer career to young Australians and render the col onv more independent.

DOHERTYS WIN AGAIN,
They Then Withdraw from the Singles
 at LOngw0od.

nt AOhRwOOu.
 Longwood, Mass, July 29.-The tennis at the Longwood Cricket club to-day was disappointing. Large crowds gath cred to seee the Englishmen, R. f. and H. L. Doherty, in what was thought would be good matches. Both did some playing, winning their match in the eastern doubles in the morning and H. L. Doherty in the afternoon defeating J. c. Nicely in straight sets.
 R. F. Doherty then came onto the court and played set and half with Richard Stevens of New York, but rain put an end to the play for the day. Both Dohertys then withdrew from the tour nament for singles, and for the rest of the week will confine themselves to playing in the eastern doubles, in the hope of winning this event so that they may meet the western champions, Col lins and Waidner, at Newport next month. In addition M. D. Whitman, the former American champion, also withdrew so that, with the exception of L. E. Ware and Holcombe Ward, there is no first class player left in this event.
 Had both R. F. Doherty and M. D. Whitman remained in the tournament they probably would have met to-mor- row. The first meeting of these two cracks will be at Brooklyn next week for the Davis international trophy.

Lightning also hit a barn close to the residence of Dr. w. w. Wellington on Main street in Terryville, tearing hole in the roof and knocking down plaster ing. The house did not take fire.
