Washington News.

WASHINGTON, July 29.-The following
cablegram was received at the Navy De
partment this afternoon from Commander
McCrea, of the Machias which arrived at
Cape Haitien yesterday: affairs are very
disturbed at Cape Haitien. Foreign consuls
have been Threatened. Will give protection
on board. 1 will prevent bombarding with
out due notice"
The State Department has no hesitation
in fully approving the energetic and suffl-
cent action of Commander McCrea in TAX
ing care of the foreign consuls and In pre-
venting a bombardment without warning
The American and foreign interests in Cape
Haitien are large, and American cap
tain is required by the unwritten law TO
look after the life and property Of other
foreign residents. as we'll as Americans, in
such cases. 1t is said the rules of inter
national law, as we'll as the dictates Of
humanity, require that proper notice be
given before a bombardment in order that
women, children and noncombatants may
leave the town and carry off their personal
belongings
The Navy Department feels that the Ma
chias is sufficiently large for the work at
hand at this point, though if there were
more such small American gunboats in the
gulf and Caribbean, quieting and re-
straining influence would be eXerted over
these frequent rebellious outbreaks, involv-
Ing violations Of the rules of war and great
suffering However, there is no naval yes
sci. save those now actually engaged in
such service as the Machias, within 500
miles of the various seats OF trouble in
Central and South America and the West
Indies. The Machias is a vessel of LII
tons, carrying eight four-inch rapid-f1re
guns and a crew OF eleven officers and 143
men. While not many men could be spared
for a landing party the vessel undoubtedly
could lie in the anchorage and cover the
town with her guns. 1t is not believed that
there is the slightest danger of an attack
upon her by any of the Haitien gunboats,

unauthorized congregationist schools has
considerably abated, even in Brittany, ow-
ing TO the circumstances that none Of the
recalcitrant schools viii be forcibly closed
until special DEGREES to this end have been
signed for each department. In many de-
partments such action will not be neces-
sary, as the congregations have submitted.
and moreover the decision OF the govern
ment not to close those schools for which
authorization was not asked owing TO mis-
Interpretation Of the law has had some
thing OF a quieting effect.
The leaders OF the agitatiOn still talk of
organizing popular protests, but the life
seems 10 be out Of the movement so far
as Paris is concerned Here the Socialists
have determined upon counter demOnstra-
tions to every clerical meeting. Some dis
turbances in the provinces. especially in
Finisterre, are probable. when the police
close the schools. but there is evidently
a lull in the excitement for the moment
The only incident reported to-day was
that a group OF women at Rodese, in the
Department of Averon, Attacked a teacher
and compelled him to take refuge in the
communal school. The teacher was fol-
lowed by a crowd shouting: Down with
COmbes!" The arrival of gendarmes pre-
vented further mischief.

WASHINGTON, July 29.-Manila papers
received at the War Department give an
account of the beginning of the trial of
twenty-five natives in Mndoro who are
charged with killing four Americans The
rames of the Americans could not be OBJ
tanned. From one of the men arrested a
partial story has been secuted. The four
Americans approached the shore of Mindoro
in a boat and as soon as they had landed
the natives attacked them, putting all to
death and mutilating them. The bodies
then were put in the boat and cast adrift.
The finding of the boat by Americans led
to the discovery of the crime and confess

WASHINGTON, July 29.-United States
Ambassador Clayton at Mexico has sue
ceeded in securing restitution in one of the
largest ENLIGHTENMENT cases before the Mex
lean State Department. Some time ago
James Brown Potter, representing large
American and English interests in the Ia
haulilo Mining Company, of Mexico, ap-
peaed to the State Department for justice,
claiming that by a fraudulent conspiracy
some of the directors of the company had
embezzled funds to the amount of over
81 100000. This, it was charged, was &C
complished by packed elections and the be-
stowal of Illegal powers upon one of the
directors in the company. The fact that
some of the interior Mexican officials were
involved in the conspiracy made il almost
impossible TO obtain justice by the ordi-
nary methods The State Department re-
ferred the case to Ambassador Clayton
and he brought ii 10 the attention Of the
Mexican government and pressed it so
hard that he is now able TO announce
that the conspirators are being forced to
disgorge the money and securities.
