New York, May 28. A cable
gram from Iquique says : There
is great rejoicing in this city at the
escape of the Itata. It is now be
lieved that she will reach some
friendly port without
trouble. Her eluding of the fleet
Charleston is the talk all over the
city, for the news of the Charles
ton's arrival at Callao without the
Itata las spread like wild-fire
But even had the Charleston
caught the Itata. it is very doubt-
iui ii any oi me arms or ammuni
tion which the latter vessel re
ceived from the schooner Robert
and Minnie at San Dieeo. Cal..
would have been found. The een-
eral impression among the best
informed people here is that the
Chilian insurgent warship Esmer
alda long since transferred the
raucn-aeaireu munitions ci war
from the Itata. and has bvher
subsequent actions pretty well
pulled the wool over the eyes of

Washington, May 28. The
cruiser Charleston is now at
Callao, where she arrived yester
uay. iine win proDaDly remain
at Callao three days to coal, and
men proceed to Arica. Chili. The
movements of the Itata are still a
mystery. She has not been seen
at any point since she was report
ed by the Pacific Mail steamer as
tbout sixty-live mi lea north of
Acapulco on the morning of the
15th, and from her not mittin? in
at some of the coast ports for coal
it is generally believed that she
steered on a direct course for Chili
and must now be very near home.
The cruisers San Francisco and
Baltimore are now at Iuuinue. and
their chances for taking the Itata
seem to be much better than those
ol the Charleston.

leave harbor at Acapulco. The
commander of the vessel said he
was willing to leave, but his shin
had no sails and could not depart
without steam power. The irov-

rush oi old miners for work at the
various plants continues. In most
instances, however, thev are turn
ed off with an exnise,aod given to
understand that their services are
not needed. Hundreds of old
miners are drifting from one works
t io another in the vain hope of

nnuing worK, Dut everywhere they
go they are met with the same
statement, "No work now." This
simply means that the black list
has gone through the region, and
a man refused at one works is cer
tain to be refused at another. As
a result, they are either preparing
to leave the district for another
field or are drifting aimlessly
about, and more homes have been
broken up by the strike that just
closed than by all other strikes
that preceded Ih'n gigantic failure.
Reports are coming in hourly of
the destitution ot hundreds of f im

Washington, May 23. The

a dispatch from Minister Lincoln
at London, saying that official

Monday to authorize the uueen to

taking seals in the Behring sea
The question engaged the presi
dent's principal attention to day,
and he had a conference with the
cabinet. One point considered
was the advisability of sending
war vessels to rsenrtng sea to re
in force the revenue ruttcrs in pre
venting the taking of seals in case
a closed season is decided upon.
Th:s fleet would, of course, co
operate with the English warships
now in those waters in the en
forcement of the agreement as
concluded. News of Goschen's
action was received with satisfac
tion at the stte department.
Generally it is taken as an indica
tion that the British government
is preparing to accept ttie con ition
imposed by the president as a pre
liminary to arbitration and cause
British vessels to refrain from
sealing in the meantime. The
fixed period for the cessation of
sealing referred to by Goschen,
probably means the reni-ii- ler of
this season. Duriiiir this time

where immigrants can be placed

migrants coining to the Northwest

gration of last year, and of people
who are settling in tne agi .cul

last year and a very good class of
settlers. Those who have settled
in the Northwest during the past

writing to their friends to come
out here, which keeps up the
steady stream of immigration.

sources of the couutry and the
reliability of crops are the chief
