A PRACTICAL SUGGESTION.
Recommendation That the Pensacola be
Permanently Stationed at Honolulu.
San Fbancisco, Aug. 29. It has been
recommended to the secretary of the
navy that the United States steamship
Pensacola, now at Mare island, but
recently ordered to Honolulu, should be
permanently assigned to that station and
anchored there. The recommendation
is of some length, and go into detail to
the effect that it is not considered
necessary to keep a large crew or a great
number of officers on board of tier, but
suggest that a guard of marines and an
experienced marine officer be always
kept on board in case emergencies
should arise on shore, or their services
should be needed ' for the protection of
the American interests. Officers and
marines. could bn sent to the Pensacola
at intervals by the mail steamers, and
at a mucli less cost than is now required
to keep the other vessels at that point,
The yews recently brought by the
steamer Zealandia from Honolulu that
anexation to the United States is being
agitatated in the islands is a forcible
argument in favor of keeping a perma
nent naval loice at Honolulu for what
ever the ultimate policy of the United
States may be towards the Hawaiian
island, no secretary of state would be
apt to advocate any policy that would
lead to the island falling into the posses
sion of England. European powers now
look upon the United Estates as exercis-
insr a virtual protectorate over the
Hawaiian kingdom, and so long as the
American representative there has the
support of an adequate naval force, no
foreign nation will make an attempt to
interiere in the internal anaira ot the
islands.
DBOWSFI) WHILE BATHING.
A Young Man and Woman Find Watery
Graves at a Pleasure Resort.
New York, Aug. 30. While closing up
Palmer's bathing pavilion at West
Brighton beach, Coney island, last night.
it was discovered that a man and woman
who had occupied two of the rooms had
not returned. Mrs. Johnson, who had
charge of the woman's department, said
that she remembered assisting a pretty
girl, of about 19 years of age, to one of
the rooms -in -question shortly before
dark. Her clothing consisted of a drab
cashmere overskirt, a dark silk ' waist.
black shoes and stockings and rather ex
pensive uuderware.- There was 40 cents
in change in the pocket of her dress
The missing man is -supposed to have
been about 24 years of age. In his
bathhouse was found a pair of light
striped trousers, a white tennis shirt.
black coat and necktie.'but no vest. His
hat was a brown derby. In his pocket
was f z, two return tickets over the vjul
ver road to Brooklyn and -a time-table of
the Jersev Central railway. Officers
patrolled the beach all night, but found
no trace of the missing persons.
Believes Gordon Living.
New York, Aug 30. J. J. Covle and
P. C. Johnson sailed today on the Ser
via starting on a journey to the river
Nile. Coyre is familiar with the region
having served several years with the
British army in Egypt. He says :
' When I was in Cairo I had interviews
with three French nuns and four priests
who expressed a belief that (ieneral
Gordon is still alive. Upon their state
ments, which were consistently linked
together - and 'obtained from sources
which for prudential reasons I am not
at liberty to reveal, I believe that Gen-v
eral Gordon is not dead, but held as cap
tive. The ooject ot this journey is to
ascertain whether he is dead or alive.
I will disguise myself as a native and
enter the Khartoum or else lose my head
in the attempt.
Warned against Fine Nat.
'San Fbancisco, Aug. 30. Governor
Colcord, of Nevada, is in the city. He
desires to warn the public against rush
ing into Nevada to work the Pine Nut
mines. He says that while Senator
Haines 'is undoubtedly honest in his
opinion of the mine, he is not a practi
cal miner, and is too enthusiastic. Gov
ernor Colcord - has been over the Pine
Nat region, and saw no indication of
rich mineral strikes. The claims at
Pinu Nut are all taken up, and it is use
less for people to go there now. Gov
ernor Colcord will leave at once for Pine
Nut, and, . after investigating, win
announce definitely whether or not the
report of the rich find is correct.
; A Cool Robber
' Cincinnati, Aug. 30. Early this eve
ning a man rang the bell of the residence
occupied by Father O'Rouke, a Catholic
priest. When the priest answered the
ring, the man put a revolver close to
him and in a " business-like tone said :
"Give me all your money." The priest
opened his pocket book and said, "Take
it out yourself." The robber took $50,
ail tae priest had, and left. , There is no
clue to his identity. '
' Shipwrecked Seamen Picked Up. -
Washington, Aug. 30. The treasury
department is in receipt of a letter from

THAT UNION PACIFIC SCHEME.
New Delelopements in the Affair A Sig
nificant Meeting.
New Yokk, Aug. 31. Important de
velopments in the affairs of the Union
Pacific railroad are expected this week,
says the Times : A meeting of the re-
centlv appointed financial committee of
which Pierpont Morgan is the head, will
be held today or tomorrow in this
city. Probablv the outcome of the
meeting may be of greater significance
than the mere putting into effect of the
scheme for carrying the floating debts.
Rumors of the Vanderbilts taking con
trol of the property was received with
serious consideration in Wall street
where Pierpont Morgan's close relations
with the Vanderbilts is duly appreciated.
It is well known when the Gould-Dillon
contingent -first approached Morgan
with the request for aid in straightening
out the finances of the Union Pacific
company they met with a chilling recep
tion. When finally Morgan consented
to take charge of the scheme for tempor
arily disposing of $19,000,000 of the
floating debt it transpired that he ex
acted concessions that practically put
him in control of the property.
Chclago Wheat Market.
Chicago, Aug. 31 . Wheat opened ex
cited and higher this morning; all the
way from 100101, against 99
asked Saturday. After fluctuating con
siderably December advanced to 103ljj
at 1 o'clock. Stronger cables of receipts
and figures from Vienna, showing a
shortage in the world's crop of wheat to
be 99,000,000 bushels and in rye of 30,
000,000 was the cause of higher prices.
The highest point reached was 104.
Closing firm at 101?4103; September
101 ; December 104. Shortly before
noon Rumsey Bros., the long established
commission firm, notified those having
trades with them to close thfm out.
The announcement had no effect on the
market as the firm had been doing only
a very small commission business of
late.
An Official Conformation.
Washington, Aug. 31. Official ' con
firmation of Balmaceda's fall reached
the state and naval departments this
morning. Acting Secretary Wharton
received the following cablegram 'dated
Valparaiso, August 30th: "Balmaceda
turned over the government to Baque
daiio, and fled. Canto goes to Santiago
tonight to assume control until the arri
val of Junta from Iquique. Good order
here. .
(signed) McCbeeby, Consul."

Montgomeby,' Ala., Aug. 30. There
seems to be good ground for the asser
tion of President Polk, of the National
Reformers' alliance, that his orgrniza
tion was now addressing itself to clean
ing out the United States senate." Alii
ance leaders and speakers are waging
war against Senator Morgan, of this
state, and openly declare that he will'be
defeated for re-election by a candidate
whom the alliance will suggest.

CRIMES OF KOTALTY.
History of the Death of an Austrian Bar-ones--She
Loved Prince Rndolph.
New Yobk, Ang. 31. The World pub
lished yesterday, exclusively in America,
but in. conjunction with the London
Times, which holds the original manu
script, a pamphlet prepared by the
family of the late Baroness Marie Yet
zers, who was found shot to death to
gether with her lover, Rudolph, the
crown prince of Austria, at Mayerling,
on the 30th of January, 1889. The pam
phlet was suppressed by the Austrian
imperial family. It tell a story in a
circumstancial manner, backed by auto
graph letters, as to leave no doubt as to
its value as a historical document. The
important feature is the famous part
played in the tragedy by no less a per
sonage than the niece of the empress of
Austria. The pamphlet accuses her of
being not only an intermediary.
but a blackmafler as well. Briefly sum
marized the story is that the Baroni'KS
Marie Yetzera, then 17 years old, fell
in love at first sight with the crown
prince, and frequently met him in a so
cial, ordinary way. Finally she. in
trusted her secret to Countess Lansch,
the empress of Austria's niece, and this
lady at once undertook to act as a go
between, while taking advantage of her
knowledge of state affairs to levy black
mail from the prince.

San Diego, Cal., Aug. 30. One of . t he
coolest suicides which ever occurred in.

days ago, and his wite was compenetr to
go out to service to support .the family.
When the body was found today it was
lying on an army blanket in the middle
of the floor, carefully dressed in hia
fatigue uniform, his Grand Army button
and a medal for sharp shooting on his
breast, while in the center of his fore
