NEW YORK LETTER
BY JAMES THURsToN.

Ing players there is an auxiliary interest in the form of genuine western cavalry men, cowboys, Mexican vaqueros, Apache Indians and twenty COW ponies from Ari- zona cattle ranches. The personalities in the story are, of course, the rough and homely types of the ranges, but the story is one of true supreme heart interest
 Another interesting event was the pre- sentation of the London success, "The Merrymaids," at the Criterion. The music is by Paul Rubens and Frank F. Tours, and the book by Messrs. Courtneige and Thompson. The new comedy belongs in the category of musical plays with the ''The Three little Maids" "The School Girl" "'The Catch of the Season." and
 ''The Little Cherub." having the same dainty and tuneful qualities and relying upon its abundant fun, jolly songs and many novelties for popular favor. It is presented by big company of American and English comedians, headed by Hunt ley Wright, who is a London favorite, and who makes his first appearance In this country in this play.

 At the time of the signing of the treaty the writer was among small group of foreigners at Gen. Nogi's head quarters on the Mongollan border. This group included British lieutenant gen eral, Turkish majors general, an Eng fish colonel, two English majors and three war correspondents. The discus sions among these ten afforded extreme interest. Almost every possible sub 1ect illuminated by them at one time or another, and on no subject, save one were all agreed. But there was not one dissent to the general opinion that tho treaty of Portsmouth could be, at least, nothing more than truce.

SHIP LOCH CARVE
L|bELED AGAIN

Another libel for salvage was filed
in the United States District Court
yesterday against the British ship
Loeb Carve. This one is by John d.
tug Intrepid, which joined the steam
ers of the IL. S. n. Co. in pulling the
libeled ship off the reef at Kamalo.
Molokai, and the amount claimed is
1000. Holmes &c Stanley and c. H.
Olson are proctors for libelant.
The Inter-Island company's libel is
for 1872, 500. Values stated in the
Spreckels libel are $4,000 for the In
trepid, $4,000 for the Loeb Carve, $780,
900 for the latter's fertilizer cargo and
$4,000 for her freight money earned when
the vessel was brought into Honolulu
harbor.
No bond has been furnished under
either of the libels, so that the vessel
is in the custody of Marshal Hendry
under attachments. 1t is likely
though, that the owners in Great Brit
ain will arrange by cable shortly for
releasing the Loeb Carve.
There is every prospect that the evil
dence will be all in today in the 100000
libel of Pacific Mail Steamship Co.
against the dredge Pacific, and that
argument will proceed before Judge
Dole early next week.

QUICK SERVICE.

1t was $3.50 Thursday afternoon when
Clerk M. T. Simonton handed into the
Office of High Sheriff Henry a special
venire for fifty jurors. At 10 a. M
Friday the writ was returned in court
with thirty-fve men summoned. This
is one of the best records of quick
service made in a long time. It is
creditable to the high sheriff and his
deputy, Geo. c.. Sea.

NOT A CONFESSION.

W. ?. Jarrett, deputy sheriff of Ho-
nolulu, was next called and the last
witness of the day. There was a
struggle of half an hour over a sup
posed confession the defendant made
to him, Mr.. Straus striving to elicit an
admission of the use of coercion When
the purported confession came out how
ever, it amounted to nothing in the
case, being simply that the defendant
and Carl Ahrens, indicted with him,
had with a third member of the crew
visited several saloons on the night of
the fire and that the two accused men
had assisted in carrying the third
mariner to the ship.
This is probably not the confession
that Mr.. Prosser referred to in his
opening of the case to the jury, when
he spoke of q statement made by
Guerre to ga person speaking his own
language.

animation. Witness did not see defend

"My eccentric and noisy friend, -
was one of Mr.. Prosser's compliments
to the attorney for defendant.
Il may be eccentric, but you will

was the rejoinder of Mr.. Straus.
The bedding that was fred and
thrown into the lower hold of the

DOYLE SHUT OUT.

Mr.. Straus started the first of a
series of lively combats when, at the
outset, he requested that Chester Doyle
be excluded with the other witnesses
until called.
Judge Robinson ordered that Doyle
be excluded.
Deputy Attorney General Prosser,
having failed to satisfy the court that
Doyle had any right to remain, asked
Stenographer Jones to take down a
statement by him, which was to the
effect that Doyle, IAN assistant in the
Attorney Generals department, hav
ing been placed under the rule for the
exclusion of witnesses, the Territory
was compelled to abandon its purpose
of calling Doyle. as a witness.
Being no longer witness in the
case, Doyle retained his seat beside
the prosecuting attorney.
