! FROM IRELAND
The Pikemen.


yeomen in Idrone,
The pitch-caps and the CORY lash make
guiltless victims groan;
And murder stalks the villages, and
high the roftrees flame,
Arise, ye men of Wexford, now, or
live in lasting shame!
Ye pikemen, bold pikemen,
Old Wexford calls her pikemen.
See, at her call, they muster all
For vengeance now, grim pikemen!
The plough they leave by Slaney's
banks, the scythe in soft Imayle,
And out through famous Scollagh gap
they surge like autumn gale!
Bold hearts are there from Ballagh-
keen, and wooded Schilmaliere
Sends many stalwart rifeman to
fill the foe with fear.
The pikemen, the pikemen,
The stormy cheering pikemen;
Broad Barrow's flood shall flow
with blood
Rush in, We rebel pikemen!
Above on sunny Camarus the fraioch-
blossoms blow,
Grim massacre and pillage fright the
fertile wales below;
Rough Corrigrew is basking in the
scented summer gale,
In Corey, at the mountain-foot, is heard
the maiden's wall.
Ye pikemen, brave pikemen,
Ha! tarry not, We pikemen!
TITS yours to quell the spawn Of
hell.
For hearths and homes, ye pike
men!
The morning sun is Furnishing the
slopes of Oulart Hill,
His low beam strikes on serried pixies,
S1SuC lAc oOuA W IAAu1S
Like flame athwart the ripened fields,
from Wexford's guarded gate
The fred North Cork"-thelr lire-sands'
run-march out to meet their fate.
The pikemen, the pikemen,
The dread, resistless pikemen,
H,~S,r I1, an, nspI0 &SSy
brow,
They reap, the rebel pikemen.
High noon in Enniscorthy-from the
far-famed Duffy Gate
The tyrant's smoking cannon hurl their
messengers Of hate;
c In vain, in vain, his bullets gain, and
thunder loud the guns,
Those ranks accursed, the pikemen
burst-old Wexford's dashing
The pikemen, the pikemen,
They staggered from the pikemen;
Their black hearts feel
The patriot steel
The vengeance of the rfkelnen.
TIE "Ancient Britons' went to death
on Tubberneering's plain,
The Irish green at Taghmon waved
DER many foeman slain.
Oh, for an Owen Roe again to lead
with Spanish steel!
From Wexford's bristling vanguard,
then, oppression's ranks should
reel.
The pikemen, the pikemen,
A ,ender for the pikemen,
They heard with fear your stormy
cheer
Ye laughed at death, fierce pike
men!
"Tis true, alas, We fought, and failed
when stubborn Ross ran red;
The fatal slope of Vinegar Hill was
matted with your dead.
Unconquered souls! your fame shall
live while runs the rapid More
All honor, deathless pikemen, to your
green graves evermore!
The pikemen, the pikemen,
When Erin needs her pikemen,
God send her then heroic men
Like Wexford's fearless pikemen!

They could not shout orders to the
men, as the wind made it impossible
for them to be heard The crashing
in of boats caused great anxiety. Wa
ter on the promenade deck of the
vessel rose at times as high as a mans
head, and of course flooded the cabins.
Two sailors received injuries, and 1t
was wonderful that more of them were
not drowned or killed by the great i'm
pact of the tons of water continuously
pounding over the decks.
On arrival in Honolulu salute was
fired from the naval station in honor
of the distinguished officials on board.
The Sumner is to remain here until
Saturday or Sunday, having minor re-
pairs to be made to the boilers and
taking on coal.

Vessels Boat Smashed
and Cabins Flooded
With Water.

On a partly clear moonlight night.
under the stars and full moon that
look down from the brilliant heavens
upon the land of the rising sun and
the tempestuous sea that surrounds it,
the transport Sumner, having a drill
liant party of United States army men
on board, met with frightful typhoon.
For hours those on the vessel were in
great peril, and many believed that the
staunch army transport would be un-
able to weather the tremendous wind
and mountain after mountain of foam
ing sea- The Sumner arrived at Ho
nolulu yesterday morning, much to the
relief of those who travelled on the
vessel from Manila, Yokohama, and
Nagasaki.
The transport carries no enlisted
men, has no. cargo, with the exception
of a few tons of medical supplies, and
the sole object of her trip is to carry
Major General Adna R. Chaffee and
Governor Wright to the United States.
General Chaffee has his wife with him.
Governor and Mrs. Luke E. Wright
and Governor Wright's secretary, Fred
HeiskeIl, are returning home. The
other passengers on the transport are
Major j. L. Phillips and child; Major
William H. Arthur, surgeon United
States army; Captain ]. r. Lindsey,
Fifteenth United States cavalry, Lieu
tenant R. B. Harper, Seventh United
States cavalry; Judge James H. Blount.
of the Philippine insular government;
Miss Moses, a daughter of Commits
sioner Moses; The Misses Fauenholtz
and Weir, army nurses; Miss Nellie
Sullivan, maid to Mrs. Chaffee; Miss
Brock, and Private Stanley, all from
Manila At Nagasaki the following
passengers were taken on board: Mrs,
Van zandt, Mrs. Cooper, Lieutenant
Colonel and Mrs. James T. Kerr, Miss
Dodge At Yokohama Major and Mrs
Lynch, Miss Kimball, and Chinese
servant to General Chaffee were taken
aboard.
ONE BREAK IN THE STORM.
The typhoon was the severest thai
anyone on the transport has ever ex-
perienced. The vessel left Yokohama
on October Is, and at noon on the fol.
lowing day the barometer commenced
falling. The wind came on rapidly
and by night time had an awful force
Up to o'clock the velocity of the win;
had been such that no one thought i
possible for it to be greater Then
lull came. There was very little wine
and many heaved sigh of relief
thinking that the typnoon had passed
But a moment later the wind cam
back with cyclonic force
What followed is best told by Cap
tain Lyman in his private log, whici
is as follows:
Il wish l could describe the awful
scene around the ship. A full moo

Neb, askan win Be Late.

The new steamship Nebraskan,
which recently arrived at San Fran
cisco from New York on her way to
Honolulu, will be late in arriving here,
as some time will be taken up in San
Francisco in changing from coal-burn-
er to oil-burner. For this reason the
Nevadan is to make the next trip here,
leaving San Francisco on November
Is, and the Nebraskan will not follow
until some time later.

Peal Harbor Work.

The second big suction dredge to be
used in the work at Pearl Harbor was
towed out to sea yesterday and reached
the entrance to Pearl Harbor safely
during the afternoon. Matters are now
in good shape on the bar, and the
dredging work will be pushed as rap
idly as the weather will permit.

 NEW ORLEANS. June 6-Liverpool advices were not encouraging, consequently our mar ket opened 2M4 points lower. Subsequently. however. the buliish visible supIsy statement and claims that rain was beginning to be need- ed in Central Texas caused improvement of l4dl7 from the bottom. Near the close realizing occasioned some easiness, making the net gain S@l2 points on the day. The visible supply of American decreased | 8 900 during the week against g 900 last year and 32. 900 year before last The total visible supply of American is 964 900, against B. 069. 900 last year and | .595 900 year before last. The 30 leading interior towns during the week received l4.ooo. against 5000 last year and l4,00o year before last, and hold in stock l54.ooo, against 5000 last year and 54.oOo year before last. The total stock of American ashore and afioat to Liverpool is SSo. 900. against 69S. 900 last year and 475,- 900 year before last It is apparent that there Is an undercurrent of nervousness always in evidence when there is any unfavorable crop report circulated. This, in a measure is due to the heavy discounts existing in the new crop mopths and it tends to demonstrate that if any real serious damage to the crop were to take place a marked advance fin these options would in all probability be quickly established

NEW ORLEANS. June 6.--Liverpool closed about f-64 under last night but American markets apparently ignored the news from that quarter. few buying orders here in July gave an appearance of activity during the early hours. but the Winter months did not participate until later, when complaints began to come in from Central and Northern Texas of plants suffering for want of rain. as drought news from Texas is especially feared. The immediate effect of these complaints was to raise the price of distant positions 10 points, Trading In them is broadening very sensibly. and as the disposition seems to be to sell them on any advance we expect to see very active markets before long. Only the shadow of the Summer months hangs a menace over the prospective dealer in the new crop. Advices from American mill centers indi- cate quiet markets with moderate demand, though at reduction, except. perhaps a shading of prices yarns in few instances to effect good-sized sales. Tn Manchester. on tine other hand. yarns were quoted steady while cloths dull. On the continent there Is talk of spinners being rather short of stock but the spot sales fail to show that they have come into the market seriously to replenish their supplies. In the immediate future Texas promises to command principal attention and all eyes will be fixed on the sections reported today as needing rain

Murphy & Co.'S Qnc.) Cotton Letter.
 I3v Private Wire

NEW YORK. June 6.-Cotton opened higher for June. but lower for other months, but business was of quite a moderate volume sub sequent to the opening; the market rallied on covering of shorts alleged less brilliant crop prospects. The Chronicle published a port indicating 2 o6 per cent. decreased acre age. Sentiment in cotton circles is still bear
 ish but less than has been the case, but it must be borne in mind that the feeling has been decidedly against values. It is quite evident. however. that without some outside developments wholly disconnected with cot ton not much of decline is looked for until more is known about the crop. The crop has been doing so magnifcently that the only pos sible change of importance IS deterioration to a greater or less extent and the little that has transpired in the past few days shows some what more brilliant prospects than heretofore: in other words. the crop has gone from extreme iy brilliant to very brilliant. Stocks at Liverpool during the wek have lost 39 900 bales and are now 965. 900 or 2l6.ooo more than last year. while aioat is 48,ooo less than last year. Receipts today were 4ooo against z, = 400 last year. Amount in sight for the week was 3S 574. against 75,ooo last year.
