a A HA!) MAN ARRESTED.
The Irish. Vtite today Want the Lands

to Charleston.
Clkvelanu, Ohio, Nov. 0. In an in
terview on the recent elections, Senator
Sherman said : "In. the first place so
far as the republican party is concerned,
the result in Ohio fixes the silver ques
tion as one issue of the next presidential
contest, and decides it so far as this state
is concerned. I am convinced that free
coinage will be passed by the congress
which assembles in December. I also
believe that such a bill will be vetoed by
President Harrison. That wilf naturally
make free silver a feature ' of the next
presidential fight. In fact it will be the
leading issue, upon which there is a vast
difference of opinion in both parties.
- "It is exactly like tariff local condi
tions and interest govern the sentiment
and action.- I doubt verv much whether
the democracy in the national conven
tion will proclaim for free coinage. If
they should there will be no other issue
of any significance in the next campaign.
The financial battle that we fought in
Ohio will then be transferred to the
nation and contest such as we have
never seen will be the result. The tariff
will be a prominent but not vital point
in the contest. The tariff question is
practically', .settled for the time being
butCirftljtlways boa source of agitation
as long as the government lasts. During
the next session of congress it can hardly
be considered, but in the next campaign
it will be the leading issue with silver."
An All-Kound Man.
San Fbancisco, Nov. 6. H. L. Bates
acting as agent for the state of Oregon,
arrested John Davidson, a machinist at
Vallej'8 yesterday. The prisoner will be
taken to Oregon. Davidson cashed at
Ladd & Tilton's bank in Portland a check
on a Seattle bank for $175, and the Ladd
& Tilton's bank afterward discovered
that Davidson had no funds in the
Seattle bank. Coining to San Francisco,
Davidson enlisted in the navy and was
assigned to the cruiser Charleston from
which ship he deserted in San Diego.
The Irish VoU Today.
Cork, Nov. 0. An election is being
held today for a successor in parliament
to the late Charles Stewart Parnell, who
represented Cork City in the commons.
The "Parnellite candidate is John E.
Redmond, and Martin Flavin, a butter
merchant of this city, is the' McCarthyite
candidate. The influence of the priest
is with the McCarthy ites. . In ' order
to avert any possible disorder the polls
this morning were strongly guarded by
the police. '
Indian Land Question.
Mubkaoie, Ind. Ter., Nov. 6. Sarah
Ellis and other Cherokee Indians filed
a petition asking for the apportionment
allotment of the Cherokee lands. Joel
B. Mayes, chief of the nation, t and
others made the defendants' petition
and asked for the allotment of 14,000,000
acres equally among the five tribes of
the nation. The enit is the largest case
ever brought in the United States court.
Tiie Convicts Return to Charleston.
Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 6. One hund
red and. twenty-seven of the released
convicts have been returned to Nash
ville. The miners in the coal creek dis
trict are still in a ferment. Their act of
releasing the convicts does not seem to
have satisfied them and unless other de
mands are made by them are conceded,
a strike may occur.
Emphatically Denied.
Troy, N. Y., Nov. 6. The Troy Times
publishes a dispatch from. Frank HLs
cock at Syracuse, saying that the state
ment that he had been tendered the
portfolio of secretary of war is without
the elightest foundation. .

THE 8TR1THBLA3JE WRECKED.
Instructions Received from the Owners
for ihe Deposition of the Wreck.
Astoria, Nov. 4. The wreck of the
British ship Strathblane on North
Beach has caused more comment among
shipping men than any disaster that has
occurred for years. Many hold the
Union . Pacific culpable, asserting that
the company's tugboat should have been
outside the bar. Captain Troup, who
has charge of the boat, say that they ' do
not prowl around the ocean all night,
but circulate at a radius of twenty miles
and return inside when ships are not
sighted. . . The pilot schooner remains
outside the bar all the time, but the
heavy fog probably hid the Strathblane
from view. The prevailing impression
is that the Cape Disappointment light
ship could not be" seen in the fog, and
Captain Cn.tbell wandered out of the
course. The wind which, Major Hand
bury says, was blowing fifty miles an
hour at the time, carried her on the
beach, and the wreck resulted. Edward
McKee, resident manager of Meyer,
Wilson & Co., received a telegram from
J. and A. Allen, of Glasgow, the owners
of the wrecked vessel appointing him
agent, - with instructions to save the
wreckage. Mr. McKee, subsequently
received the following dispatch from C
B. Upshur, his Astoria agent :
"Vessel total loss. , Crew not here but
will be over today."
The crew will probably report to Brit
ish Vice-Consul Cherry at Astoria, as
the wreck occurred in his district.
It is not known whether the Strath
blane was insured, but several insurance
men eay they have trustworthy informa
tion that her owners carried no insur
ance. She was valued at $05,000. '
THE CANADIAN CABINET. .
Radical Charges in the l'ersonnel of the
Government Officers.
Ottawa, Ont. Nov. 5. The cabinet
differences have been arranged and the
political crisis is over temporarily. At
the conference this morning the secre
tary of state, Chapleau, agreed to con
tinue in his present condition for the
time, and to succeed the Hon. Edgar
Dewdney as minister of the interior
when the latter retired to become lieutenant-governor
of British Columbia.
J. A. Ouimette, ex-speaker of the house
of commons, will succeed Chapleau as
secretary of. state. A. R. Angers, at
present lieutenant-governor of Quebec,
will become minister of agriculture, re
placing Senator John Carling.
Examination of Train Wreckers.
Auburn, Cal., Nov. 4. The examina
tion of A. G. and F. J. Roberts, on a
charge of train wrecking in connection
with the accident near Colfax, October
12, was commenced today before i J nst'C
Gwynn. General Superintendent A. N.
Towne, of the Southern Pacific, and a
number of railroad employes testified
that the accident was caused designedly
by pulling the spikes and removing the
fish-plates from the rails. Roberts'
house is a short distance from the scene
of the wreck and one witness testified to
seeing Al Roberts at the sleeping-car
Santa Cruz, where it lay in the ditch.
It was proved that it would take only
seven minutes to put the track in condi
tion to cause the accident.
All Quiet in Brazil.
Rio Janeiro, Nov. 6. The situation
of affairs here today are reassuring.
The troops which have been guarding
the telegraph offices since .the disturb-
ance commenced have been withdrawn.
Complete order prevails and the usual
amount of business is being transacted.
The prosperity of the country is unim
paired by the recent occurrences.
A Disagreeing Jnry.
San Francisco, Nov. 5. After being
out twenty-onS hoars and failing to
agree upon a verdict, the jury in the
case of Herman Anderson, charged with
manslaughter, was this morning dis
charged by Judge Murphy. Anderson
stabbed hia brother during a drunken
row, July 3, last.
The Farmers' Alliance President.
Washington, Nov. 5. President Polk,
of the farmers' alliance, speaking of yes
terday's election, said he was not sur
prised by the result in Ohio. He saw no
reason why McKinley "should fail of
election when one considered the fact
that $1,000,000 in cash had been sent
into Ohio to aid him in his campaign.

Paris, Nov. 5. Day before yesterday
the czar passed through Germany with
out stopping. He went ftora his yacht,
the Polar Star, to a train which was in
the station at Dnntzic. The czar and
there is no longer any doubt of it by any
European diplomat wished to show the
antipathy with which William II in
spires him. In one month he has crossed
Germany twice without exhibiting a
desire to see the German sovereign.
Last week Emperor William had offered
to pay his respects to William Alexander
at Dantzic, although it was for the Rus
sian emperor to go to Berlin, because
the German emperor had been twice to
St. Petersburg. The czar positively re
fused to see the kaiser until the last
moment. Then again the weather was
so bad the Polar Star had to defer her
departure from, Copenhagen for two
days. The czar preferred to take a voy
age of ten hours by eea rather than one '
of three by land, "in order not to pass
through Berlin. Proof, therefore, is
given that not only does the czar not
wish for the political friendship of Ger
many, but he seems to wish to be on bad
terms personally with the emperor of
Germany. .

Sax Fbancisco, Nov. 4. An effort is
now being made to have the National
Editorial association meet in annual
convention next spring at some point
in California. The convention this year
was held in St. Paul. Representatives
from New Orleans and from Ashville,
S. C, asked for next year's convention.
Scipio Craig, of Redland, urged Califor
nia and the suggestion was favorably
received. Finally the choice of place
and date for the next convention was,
referred to the executive committee
This committee will meet in Cincinnati
next month,, and a delegation of Cali
fornia men are going there to further
press the invitation extended. Mayor
G. M. Francis, of the Napa Regitster,
Duncan McPherson, of the Santa Cruz
Sentinel, R. A. Marshall, of the Los An
geles Citizen, and Mr. Craig will proba

prove successful.
Train ltohoery in Nebraska.
Omaha, Nov. 4. The Kansas City ex
press train on the Missouri Pacific road,
was held up by six masked men about .
10 o'clock last night, one mile .west of
West Side, eight miles from this city.
At that point the train had to stop be
fore crossing the Fremont, Elkhora fc
Missonri Valley tracks. Two of the
men boarded the engine, and . witln
cocked revolvers commanded Engineer'
Hall to get off the engine. The others
boarded the express car, and, upon beinjr
refused the keys to the box, proceeded
to break it ojen with tools which they
had secured from a section house.
While two of the men worked on the
strong box, the others compelled the
passengers to keep their seats. The
thieves secured about $3500 from the
safe and then getting off, ordered the
train to pull out. They then disap
peared in the darkness. The sheriff and
police are out after them.
ltepoits Believed Sensational.
London, Nov. 4.-Conflicting dis
patches are arriving here from Rio Ja
neiro. It was first reported that the
Brazilian congress had resolved that a
necessity existed for the proclamation
of martial law, and the dictatorship
should be established. This cablegram
was followed by one which stated that
the congress, had been dissolved, and
that the city of Rio Janeiro and the,
province had licen placed under the
operation of martial law. In tdis city ;
! both reports are considered as being
j highly colored.
