Crew Leaves The Vessel Amid

sssaa ss.s;is, Was Fired Upon Until Sunk

Cape Haytien, Hayti. Sept. S.-The
gunboat Crete-a-Pierret. which was in
the service of the Firminist party, has
been sunk at the entrance OF the har-
Dor of Gonaives by the German gun
boat Panther. The crew of the Crete-a-
Pierret left her before she went down.
The German gunboat Panther ar
rived at Port Au Prince September 5,
and received instructions from the
German government to capture the
Firminist gunboat Crete-a-Pierret She
left Immediately for Gonaivcs, the
seat of the Firminist government. The
Panther found the Crete-a-Pierret in
the harbor of Gonaives, and the com
mander of the German gunboat in
formed Admiral Killick, on the Crete
a-Pierret, that he must remove his
crew and surrender his vessel In five
minutes time. Admiral Killick asked
that this time be extended to Is min
utes. This request was granted, on
the condition that the arms and am
munition on board the Crete-a-Pierret
should be abandoned when her crew
left her.
The crew of the Crete-a-Pierret left
that vessel amid great disorder. At
the end Of 10 minutes the Panther sent
a small boat carrying an officer and
20 sailors, who were to take posses
sion of the Firminist gunboat. When
these men had arrived at a point about
4 80 yards from the Crete-a-Pierret,
. flames were seen to break out on board
of her. She had been fired by her
crew before they left her. The Pan

until she was completely immersed.
Il Thirty shots all told were fired.
There is much feeling here against
& the Firminists, and their cause is con
sidered to be a bad one. Soldiers are
leaving here to attack st. Marc.
It was announced from Cape Hay
tien that the German steamer Marko-
y MAMMA, Captain Nansen, of the Ham

ing on board arms and ammunition
sent by the provisional government tc
n Cape Haytien, had been stopped on
Il September by the Firminist gunboai

harbor of Cape Haytien, and that an
armed force was sent on board the
steamer from the gunboat and took

GEN. wooD AS AN ExPERr.

In his talk in Washington, Gen.
quoted as saying that nothing less
than a reduction of thirty three and a
third per cent. of our tariff on Cuban
sugar would be sufficient to make
Cuba prosperous, and that che couldn't
believe a reduction of thirty three and
a third per cent. on Cuban sugar and
tobacco would be detrimental to any
one in the United States" OF course
Gen. Wood has a right to express an
opinion in respect to this matter, but
it would be interesting to know on
what he bases his opinion. Is he Well
enough acquainted with the effect a
reduction of our tariff on Cuban sugar
and tobacco to the extent of one
third Of tine amount of 1t would have
on the sugar and tobacco interests of
this country to make his opinion val
liable? If so, how is 1t that he has
been able to inform himself so much
better than some of our Representa-
tives and Senators. He has not been
in touch with the men who are inter
ested in growing sugar and tobacco in
this country, and yet he speaks of
their interests with much more posi-
tiveness than those who have been in
position to inform themselves thor
oughly respecting them.
Only few days ago Senator Bacon
of this state. in an interview. said
that he would not vote for the pro-
posed Cuban reciprocity bill and gave
among other reasons that the sugar
interests in South Georgia promised
to become important, and he believed
in looking after American interests
before favoring those of Cuba. The
sugar and tobacco interests of this
state are small compared with those
of some other states. And yet we
find Gen. Wood telling the people that
a reduction of one-third of our tariff
on Cuban products would not hurt
any American interest. We wonder
whether he is quite as we'll informed
on the subject on which he speaks
with such positiveness as he thinks
he is. 4 7isiHa
We do not blame him OF course for
trying to get all he can for Cuba. In
deeE we believe that Cuba is entitled
to some help from us. And we have
no doubt that Gen. Wood is we'll ac-
quainted with the needs of Cuba, but
with all due Difference to him, we are
inclined to the belief that he Is not
entirely qualified to speak for Amer
lean Enthusiastically not so well
qualified as Americans who are in
touch with those interests.

PEACE PROPOSALS.

The dispatches yesterday from Pre-
toria gave an account of the presence
there of the acting President of the
Transvaal and other high officials of
the Boer Republic on last Saturday for
conference with Gen. Kitchener. Moth
ing has been made public as to the
purpose of the conference, but there
are surmises. One is that the British
have made proposals of peace, and that
the conference was for the purpose of
discussing them. It is probable that
the surmise is well founded. 1t is diff
f1cult to think of any other reason for
the presence of the acting President of
the Boer Republic in the Boer capital,
which is in possession of the British.
There is no doubt that the British
are fully as anxious as the Beers for
peace. The king wants peace to reign
throughout the empire at the time of
his coronation. That time is close at
hand, and if there is to be peace then
negotiations looking towards it cannot
be begun too soon.
There is another, and even stronger,
reason. The burden of taxation on the
British is becoming so heavy that the
British government is likely to have
trouble at home unless there is pre-
sented soon a prospect of an early end
ing of the war. The latest London
dispatches contain the information that
the budget for the coming year is be-
ing held back by the financial minis
ter until it can be determined what is
the best way for raising additional
revenue. 1t looks as if Great Britain
would have to adopt some very radical
changes in her system of raising rev.
enue if she is to avoid heavy increase
in her public debt. That debt is now
about as large as the government can
afford to have it. Much further en-
largement of 1t would likely result in
a very great decline in the empires
credit. British consols now are con-
siderably below par, and that fact,
coupled with the prospect of a big loss
in commerce, is calculated to make
the holders of British bonds feel un-
easy.
1t would not be surprising therefore
If it should appear that the visit of
the Boer officials to Pretoria was for
the purpose of considering peace pro-
posals submitted by the British gov
eminent.

WORRIED BY MILES.

Gen. Miles has the satisfaction of
knowing that by his attack on the
army bill. the administrations pet
dent for publicly rebuking him for
talking about the Schley case. The at
tack was made before the Senate Com
mittee on Military Affairs. The Wash
ington dispatches agree that the Pres
ident is worried by Gen. Miles ac-
ton. and would like to retire that Of
ficer at once. 1t seems, however, that
he doesn't think it a wise thing to do.
1t is probable that Gen. Miles weighed
all the chances of being retired before
giving his testimony against the bill,
and came to the conclusion that the
President wouldn't dare to take that
step.
It seems that Gen. Miles has a good
many strong friends in the Senate
Many of them are Republicans-lead-
Hawley is outspoken in sustaining
Gen. Miles, and it is understood that
the Republican leader, Senator Aid
rich, has said that it would be advisa-
BILE for the President not to disturb
him.
1t is easy TO understand that it wor-
ries the President not to be able to
do as he pleases in the matter. He
cannot afford, however, to ALLEVIATE his
own party friends in the Senate. He
can if he wants to retire Gen. Miles,
but if he were to do so he would have
opposition in the Senate that might
make his administration a failure. He
would find bills he favored, pigeon
holed, and appointments in which he
was especially interested turned down.
There is another standpoint from
which Gen. Miles testimony is to be
viewed. 1t is that he was called before
the committee and requested to give
his opinion of the army reorganization
bill. The point is made that he was
at liberty to criticise the administra-
ton if it became necessary to do so
in giving his views of the bill. In other
words, his communications to the COM
mittee were privileged. The Senate
therefore would hardly permit him to
be punished for what he said.
The fact that Gen. Miles has gotten
even with the President for the rebuke
which the latter administered to him
seems to amuse Washington greatly. 1t
does look as if the President were los
ing a little of the popularity which he
had when he entered the White House.

JUDGE AGAINST GOVERNOR.

The case of the sheriff of Kings
county, New York, which includes the
section of Greater New York known as
Brooklyn, is giving the Governor of
New York a great deal of trouble.
Sometime ago we called attention to
some statements made by the sheriff,
whose name is Guden. These state
ments were that the Republican ring
of Brooklyn had made him promise be-
fore he was elected, to turn over the
revenues of his office, except small
percentage of the total amount col
lected, to a committee chosen to run
the Republican political machine of the
county. II we remember correctly Mr..
Guden declared that he had complied
with this agreement.
The Republican leaders of Brooklyn
denied they had required Mr.. Guden to
make any such promise as he had
mentioned. and also denied that a COM
mittee had received the revenues of
his office. The scandal was brought to
the attention of the Governor, and that
official, after hearing testimony on the
charges, removed Mr.. Guden from
office. and appointed Mr.. Dixie to the
place. The office being a fat one, pay
ing something like 100000 year. Mr..
Guden was naturally much grieved,
and set about getting his Office again.
He thought that he had been punished
too severely for his reckless talk.
He brought suit to eject Mr.. Dixie
from the office, and it was heard by
Judge Gaynor, Democrat. That
Judge held that the Governor had ex-
ceeded his authority, and that his act
in removing Mr.. Guden was void. That
left Mr. Guden the title of the office,
but he has not got possession yet. Mr..
Dixie has taken an appeal, and it would
not be surprising if the term for which
Mr.. Guden was elected expired before
the termination of the litigation.
The Governor is sure he is right in
the course he. took in the matter, and
there is no doubt that the judge is
satisfied that the higher court will up
hold his decision. The only thing
everybody is agreed upon is that
Sheriff Guden is paying dearly for talk
ing too much. Most people who talk
too much get into trouble sooner or
later.

unless there is a strong demand for
such restriction.
But there ought to be some way of
impressing upon the minds of the peo-
pie the necessity for greater care in
handling fire arms. OF course every
man or boy feels that he is able to
avoid injuring himself or others with
a pistol or gun. but the frequent
accidents show that the number of
those who are not qualified to exercise
proper care is very large. 1t might
not be a bad plan to have the atten-
ton of children called to the necessity
for caution in handling fire arms by
their school teachers. 1t is certainly
the duty of parents to caution their
children in this respect. The number
of parents. however, who are wanting
in caution themselves is so large that
there is no use expecting much from
them.
