It the last few weeks a'l hope of peace
being maintained here has been diasi
pated, and much Samoxo blood has again

par les came to actual warfare Figoling
was started by i-ome Oana people fanug

government aupportera to tbe rescue ami
a sharp dkirmishensued. resulting in nur
of tbe rebels beiue killed and sis woun
did, and one of tbe . government troops
beioe killed and a large number wounded
A cessation of hostilities for the day
took place, but mucb . excitement was
cansed bv the newa that tbe peop'e of
O'na. who svmDatbized with those of
Oana. intended to atta. k Aula . At thu
juncture tbe consuls issued a proclama
ticn warning armed parties of Samoan
from coming within tbe municipal dis
trict This proclamation was sneered a
hv some of the malcontents, but it bad a
good effect, and it prevented . the towii
mm being overrun by armed natives.
On the following Monday an attack was
made upon the rerl camp, hut tne gov
era men i sup; oners were driven oacK
losing four men and having a large num
ber of wounded, while the rebels escaped
without loss. Matterx lemaiued fairly
ooiet for about a week after this, until
the 19th, when quite a large eogagcmeot
took place, ending in the complete no
feat of the rebels, who lost 10 or 12 men
and bad a large number wounded. Tn
lovalis's lost about the same Dumber,
and their list of wounded was also very
large. In tbe meantime the consuls paid
a visit to tbe other end of tbe island, ana
have evidently persuaded tbe disaffected
id that quarter to remain quiet tor a time
hut an outbreaK is daily exuc.ted.
Thirty have been killed and 50 wounded
so far.

Damages Awarded Hits Pollard.
Washington. Apnl 14 Foreman
Charles R. Cole, of the civil court, an
nouoced a verdict lor tbe plaintiff, Made
line Pollard, for $15,000 damages from
Coogre'Stnan Breckinridge tor creaking
his contract to marry her, tbns ending
th long and exciting Poilard-Breckin
ridge breacb-of-piomise trial. Sensa
tions fairly crowded themselves into tbe
last day of the trial. There bad been
some of 'be most dramatic scenes which
ever stirred np the dingy little courtroom,
reeking as it waa with tbe memories of
celebrated cases There was an approach
o a personal collision between Jung
Wilson and Attorney Cbatles Stoil dur
ng the magnificent closing argument of
he Washington lawyer, followed by
talk of a duel, and Judge Bradley, in
his charge to tbe jury, scored Colonel
Thompson as a lawyer is seldom spoken
fin court Tbe jury retired at 8:07 p.
M. The first ballot taken was on tbe
merits of the case, leaving out of consid
eration tbe question of tbe amount ot
damages. If resulted in 11 votes for a
verdict for the plaintiff and one for tbe
defendant. Thereupon the dissenting
gentleman was figuratively cornered by
ma colleagues and for some time was ar
gued with.
' HOW A BALANCE WAS STRUCK.
In speaking ot this discussion after
ward. Foreman Cole said that tbe jury
men displayed fully as great a familiar.
ity with the points of the testimony as
bad been evinced by tbe lawyers in their
arguments.--. They laid the cas fully be
ore tbe cbdurate jurymen, calling for
the grounds on which his belief was
based, and finally overcame him bv sheer
force of logic. The next question to be
ettled waa tbe Ogure at wbicb tne dam
ages should be awarded. Tbe foreman
aid that a verdict of $1 would vindicate
Hiss Pollard and pnnisn Mr. Breckin
ridge sufficiently, and he thought it was
unnecessary to impose any great finan
cial punishment upon bim. Dicussion
of this matter followed until the usual
course was adopted, each juror writing
tbe amount he considered just opoo a
slip of paper and a balance being struck.
The amounts ranged from SI to 150,000,
and 15,000 was the average.

Washington. April 14 As soon as tbe
brief and fruitless session of tbe bouse
ended today, tbe plans of tbe committee
on rules were changed, so as to have a
meeting and begin the formulation of a
quorum -counting rale '- It bad been in'
tended not to take np the subject until
next week, but the eo forced recess of this
afternoon gave plenty of time to go over
tbe many plans submitted. Outhwaite
said the first step would be to examine
into tbe various plans with a view to ex
tracting tbe best possible method. There
was evidence of reaction on tbe Demo
cratic side today. An undercurrent of
intense hostility to quorumconnting ex
iated: Tbe 44 wbo voted agtinst tbe pro.
posed rule are a nucleus of this feeling.
and with the other members wbo are ar
riving, it is estimated that fully a third
of tbe Democratic membership of the
bouse is opposed to the rule, Tbis makes
Rred tbe master of the situation when
tbe rules come before the bouse, for the
Democratic opponents to the rule and
the minorityunder Reed would together
form an opposition strong enough to de
feat tbe rule. Tbis has made it clear to
the friends ot tbe rule that they must
shape it to secure the Republican en
dorsemtnt, aa without the endorsement
tbe caucus action could never be carried
into eff-ct lo the boose. There iaeviry
evidence that these elements will come
together, however, as ibe Democrats are
now so lolly committed to counting a
quorum that tiKy do not feel disposed to
dirguise tbeir action on such an impor
tant rulp, while, on the othir band, the
R publicans are read v to accept any
thing embodying quorum couottcg.witb

Montevideo, April 14 Admiral de
Mello and 1500 insurgent troops, wbo
disembarked on the frontier of Uruguay,
after having been driyen out of tbe state
ol Rio Grande do Sal, have surrendered
to the Uruguayan authorities, and tbe

completely collapsed. '
Tbe government of Uruguay sent a
force of troops on board the gunboats to
tbe point where admiral - Meiio landed
the Brazilian insurgents from tbe Repub-
lica and tbe other vessels, .eventually
the Uruguayan troops nrroonded tbe

Senator Vanee Dead.
Washington. April 14 Senator
Vance, ot North Carolina, died at bis
home, 1726 Massachusetts avenue, tbis
city, at 10:40 tonigbt. He bad a stroke
of apoplexy. He had been suffering for
some time ot paralysis and a complicax
tion of diseases, bat his death was sud
den and unexpected, as lie was regaining
bis health, and waa thought to be on tbe
road to recovery He was compelled
dunog the winter, - to leave the senate
and go to Florida . Here he oecame
somewhat better, and. in view of tbe
struggle over tbf tariff, he returned to
Washington. He was a member ol tbe
committee on linauce, but took little or
no part in framing tbe present tariff bill
Hia death is expee'ed to result in a hot
fight, both for tbe short and long term
Tbe North Carolina legislature is Demo

flictiug a wound several inches long
across tne abdomen, idogan was ar
rested, and released on $1000 bonds.
i ne doctors say the injuries may prove
fatal. Gannon is an Au-tra lan 'awycr

A Peculiar Phase.
St. Paul, April 15 The strike co the
Great Northern ii gradually working
eas", hayiug taken in Grand Fork?, N,
D., last night, and if not soon settled
will probably reach this end of the line
in about two or three days. It is devel
oping a pecoiiar state of affurs. The
strike was ordered by tbe American Rail
way union and Is being more actively
antagonized by the railroad .employes'
brotherhoods than by the railroad com
pany itself. There can be no doubt ibat
the officials of tbe various brotherhoods
are priately somewhat dissatisfied, but
they recently accepted tbe revised sched
ules and are standing by tbeir agreement

ous railroad accident took place at oil
verbrook, near Hazeltoo, yesterday. A
Pennsylvania railroad freight train ran
inlo a Lebigb Valley express train, kill
ing Patrick 'Dailey, of Milton, P., and
injuring many others." The accident was
due to an oversight of tbe Pennsylvania
freight crew. - The latter left Pittsville
in the morning witb a train of mixed
cars, including box cars, gondolas and
cattle cars. As only a few traio. are run
on Sunday, the freight bad a clear traik.
and wa making fast time.' The engi
neer did not fee the passenger train notil
it t as tad late, and a moment later betb
engines came together, tbe forward car
being driven into the tender of the Val
ley eng'ne and demolishing it. Tbe
gondola were driven through the box
cars, and the engioes are hot b 'wrecked.
There were nearly one hundred passen
grrs on the train. They were thrown
bout in all directions in a most violent
manner, and - many were oadly hurt.

A Band af Heroes.
Eveiybody witb a heart appreciates
bravery, and every natural pulse beats
quicker at the sight or story of human
heroism . Tbe English soldiers who fell
before the hordes of the Matabeles dis
played those qualities that only dwell in
the bosom ot the world's conquerors ;
acd though they were swept down be
fore tbe overwhelming force of the mem
bers and perished from the earth, tbe
history ot tbeir deeds will live and cause
a glow of enthusiasm in the souls of men
whereever tbe tale ol their last struggle
ia told.
Tbe following tribute to tbeir desper
ate valor is given by one of the enemy,
an officer in tbe Matabele regiment, wbo
wimes-ed the stubborn bghl by a hand
ful against a boat:
I. Macbasha, induna of tbe Iusnka
regiment, tell yon tbese tbiogs. We
were 6.000 men against your 34. Tbey
rode into tbe track.aod linked tbeir horses
in a ring and commenced a heavy
fire upon us, and our men fell fast and
thick. We opened a fire upon tbem and
killed all tbeir horses. Then they took
to cover behind toeir horses' bodies and
killed as just like grass. We tried to
ru-h tbem. Twice we tried, but failed.
After a while tbey did not fire so mucb.
and we thought tbeir ammunition waa
getting short. Then, just as we were
preparing to rush again, ttiey all stood
np. Tbey all took off tbeir bats and
sang We were so amazed to see men
singing in tbe face of deatb we knew not
what to do. At last we ros'ued. Yon
white men don't fight like men bnt like
devils. Tbey shot as until tbe last cart
ridge, and most ol tbem sbot themselves
witb ibat. But those wbo bad none left
jnat covered np their eyes and died with
out a sound. Cbild of white man. your
people know bow to fight and bow to
die. We killed all tbe 84. , But tbey
killed as all like grass.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
Damages by Flood.
We have heretofore published report ol
the damages done by high water in the John
Day river; bnt the following from the B irnt
RiDch correspondence of the A-i'elop
Herald ia the most complete acsouut that
wa have seen in print:
Tbe John Day river waa higher on March
30th, at 4 o'clock ia the afternoon than it
was ev--r known to be, and great ilamax
was done to pr.ir-ertv alt along its bauks
Jo-epli Ch'pmto, of Contention, had hi
whole ranch inundated, lo-iing his hay crop
fxr this year, and bad ' 20 fine pirker
drowned, McAllister & Paasleo, of the
same place, had their three ranches over
flowed, losing all of their growiog crops,
two hayatack and most of their fencing
The river also cut a new ehinnel throunh
their home ranch, doing great damage to it.
Pet Connolly lost his croDS and a pitoh ot
potatoes, which ha had already planted
twice At Burnt Ranch tbe water backed
up into tbe orchard and ran through the
fields, tearing away the fences and washiog
out the gardena. Jay Saltzman bad two
cellars to collapse and bad to dig through
the tops to rescue tha content. At James
Connolly's the water overflowed hia desert
lind claim and cayed off considerable of the
same, a rancia ttwter lost most ot hi orop
and lome fencing. Vast qoantitiea of drift
went down tbe river in tbe shape of huge
logs, immense trees, bay staoka, lumber,
water wheels, bridge timbers, posts, rails!
and other things too namernui te meotioa.
At the preseut writing the river is higher
than at any time last year. Fear are enter j
tained that it will reaoh a point even higher)
than it did last we-k, nnless the' weather
stay cool, for there ia a great deal of anow I

There is no doubt that the bars of tbe Sal

and if it was soon a, to make tha city liable
for the prioj of tha steers to pay tha same

showed that tbe band of eattla in being
driven through tha street of tha city be-
I came frightened and broke away from the
herder. They were all dnven to tha stock
yards except the two for which damages
are claimed. Tba marshal drove one of
these to the pound, and he died soon after
reaching that nolosure. He was s vicious
animal and bad to be roped before ha could
ba got m subjection. This oiused consid
erable trouble to tha marshal and those who
I aseistad him. It was not in evidenoa, so
we are informed, that any -undo oruel
I method Were nsed in getting him to tha
pound; but being very flashy, it i supposed
I the ran that ha made caused bi death. Tha
I other one was very wild, and the marshal
followed bim to Three Mila Creek and back
to Mr. Taylor' farm ta Dry Hollow' before
ha oonhl be corralled. , He was afterward
sold from the pound to pay cost of keeping,
etc It i ols lined co tbe part of Mr. Har
man that this steer waa corralled by one of
his harder, and thi raise a question of

The council, after hearing tha evidence.
took tha mstter under advisement, and

at a special meeting, render their deoiaion
whether or not to pay tbe damages claimed.
