Thp Craft Conthcatod and Tnraed Orerto the
rnlifJ St s tes Marshal.
The Schooner Adclc arrived from tho
north Sunday in charge of a prize crew
commanded by Lieut. J. Lutz of tho
United States revenue cutter Thomas II.
Convin. She was seized at the north and
confiscated to the United States Govern
ment for violation of tho fihhing laws.
PAVKCS OF THE ADELE.
The papers of the Adele gave her regis
ter at fifty tons (British measurement)
and certified that she sailed under the
German flag. When seized sh "was offi
cered by Gustave Errickson, master, and
A. Wixon, A. C. Folger and G. Hansen,
mates in the order named. She had on
board two white men whose names do
not appear on tho ship's papers, and who
passed as passengers. There were twenty-four
men all told on board of tho Ad
ele when seized, the crew of eighteen
being all Japanese and speaking little or
no English. The Adele was built in
Hamburg, from which point her papers
were taken out Although sailing under
the German flag, not ono of tho white
men aboard of her aro of German nation
ality, Errickson being a Norwegian
Hansen a Swede, and Wixon and Folger
Americans. The two unknown men
were certainly not Germans, neither were
they passengers as claimed. They were
more indignsuit at tho seizure than were
tho officers of the Adele. The German
ownership in the little craft is supposed
to be only a nominal matter, because for
the last three yoars she is reported to
have been sailing in and out ot bhaughai
as a pilot-boat, clearing Yokohama on
her last disastrous cruise. The officers
and two passenger. worked, in all proba
bility, as do whalers, namely, "on a lay,"
or, in other words, receiving a propor
tionato share of tho net proceeds of the
voyage. The eighteen Japs, from all
that could be learned from them, had no
other interest save their wages, being
engaged at so much a month for a voy
age to last a definite period.
LIEUTENANT LUTZ.
Lieu. Lutz sailed from San Francisco
on April 9th last, on the cutter Thomas
It. Concin. He was detailed to protect
Otter island and surrounding seal islands
from marauders. Under his command
were seamen Brayil and J. L. Lucas.
There is on Otter island a frame building
erected by the Alaska Commercial Com
pany for the protection of tho govern
ment forces. Lieut. Lutz has passed two
seasons on tho island previous to this.
He had observed nothing unusual until
last Augnst. Then two or three small
vessels were seen to windward on various
occasions. Two of them were sailed as
if about to land. A fog shut in and at
the end of two or three days, when tho
fog lifted, the vessels had disappeared.
The revenue party left Otter island for
St. Paul's island on tho 20th. On tho
29th they saw a schooner off St. Paul's,
the crew of which were leisurely shooting
seals as they bobbed up.
TWO VESSELS WATCHED.
On tho 30th of August tho two native
watchmen at tho sealing station tele
phoned that two vessels had passed and
were standing to tho northward. A watch
was kept all night, and at daylight on tho
morning of the 31st of last August one of
schooners was observed lying to about
twenty miles to tho northward. A fresh
gale was then blowing from the west.
The weather thickened in the afternoon.
At dusk it cleared off and the schooner
was lost sight of once more. A vigilant
watch was instituted. Half an hour
after midnight she was discerned steer
ing about one mile off Northeast point.
She was standing down the beach of St.
Paul's island. The picked crow was im
mediately aroused, the whaleboat
launched and the. lieutenant set out in
pursuit. At 1 o'clock of the morning of
the 1st inst. the whaleboat came along
side the marauder, after a pull of a mile
and a half. Her people were evidently
taken by surprise. The vessel proved to
be the Adele, riding at anchor. Captain
Errickson was aboard all alone. He ac
knowledged that ho was sealing, and that
his three boats were ashore making a
catch. Soon after tho three boats re
turned to tho 'Adele laden with the car
casses of seals newly slaughtered, where
upon the schooner was seized and the
twenty-four men made prisoners.
rOBFEITED TO TnE UNITED STATES.
The vessel and her tackle, apparel and
furniture, becomes forfeited to the Unit
States, and each man on board engaged
in the marauding is liable to a fine of
not less than $200 and not more than
$1,000, or imprisonment for not more
than six months or by both such fine and
imprisonment, Capt Errickson was
willing to submit to tho seizure. The
other white men, and especially the two
"passengers," made a great fuss, one of
them drawing a revolver. They made
such a show of resistance that Cap.
Errickson braced up and vowed be would
out the cable and leave the Adele to go
adrift. "I ordered my men to have
their rifles handy," said Lieut. Lutz.
"The Captain looked at the arms, found
them all right, and went off to study the
weather." The crew being prisoners,
the Lieutenant proposed to take them to
San Francisoo in the Adele, as it was
policy for him, on account of his very
small crew, to remain on las friendly
terms with his prisoners as the exigen
cies of the case would permit The
twenty-four men of tho Adele
were fully equipped with rifles.
The white men refused to sail with Lieut.
Lutz. The vessel havinc been seized.
and they having no further interest in
her, they abruptly declined to aid the
officer to bring back their own vessel to
a port for confiscation. Tho 18 Japs re-
iusea allegiance to mo new commanaer,
because they did not like to go to a for
eign country and jeopardize all claims
for wagas earned on the cruise. The
white men bluntly said the lieutenant's
crew was too small to hold the craft
against a superior force of men in num
bers and armament Lieut. Lutz feared
that the prize would be recaptured from
him. The six white men were therefore
sent on shore to be kept in custody until
tho arrival of tho Convin, and nine of
the Japs were persuaded to remain by
the vessel, on the representation that this
course would be the surest for them to
get their pay for their seven months'
voyage.
A STERN CHASB.
Two more vessels were reported on the
arrival of the Adele at tho village, and
it was also reported that ono was then
taking seals from the beach. Lieut. Lutz
set out in pursuit and overhauled the
vessel eight miles northeast of the
island. The marauder would not heave
to for the lieutenant to board her, and
two shots were fired, one across her bow
and one into her rigging, The schooner
then opened fire on the revenue party in
the boat. A stern chase and a desultory
fire resulted in nothing. None of the
revenue party were hit The schooner
got away at dark and tho chase was dis
continued. Returning to the village
Lieut Lutz, with seamen Brayil and Lu
cas and nine Japs, sailed in tho Adele
for San Francisco on the 2d inst. The
AdcWs steering apparatus was found to
be out of gear, and other repairs had to
bemado, necessitating a delay of four
or fivo days. Tho party came
through Oonimak passago on the 11th
inst, since which day she has met
with fogs and variable weather. The
Concin is expected to arrive in this port
on or about the 1st of next month with
the officers and the other nine Japs of
the Adele, who with the nine now with
Lieut. Lutz, will be surrendered to the
marshal for trial. It is not supposed that
anything will be done with the Japs, they
being ignorant persons who shipped as
seamen and with no knowledge of the
real purport of the cruise. When cap
tured they were made to skin the car
casses of the seals brought in the three

The Century will begin with the Novem
ber number of the present year, and con
tinue without intermission, a series of
separate papers, tho object of which is
set forth, in clear and graphic manner,
the life and spirit of the most important
of modern military conflicts the war for
the Union. The main portion of the
scheme will be papers of a popular char
acter on the great engagements of the
war, by general officers high in command
at the time, either upon the Union or the
Confederate side. In many instances the
contributor will be the officer of first com
mand, and in every instance a participant
in the engagement under consideration.
For instance, the battles of Shiloh and
Vicksburg will be described by General
U. S. Grant, who will contribute four
papers to tho series; General Beauregard
will write of the First Bull Run; General
McClellan, of An tie tarn; General Rose
crans, of Stone river, etc., etc. The Pas
sage of the Forts below New Orleans will
be described by Admiral Porter, and the
Western Gunboat service by Rear-Admiral
Walker, and tho fight between the
Monitor and tho Merrimac by Colonel
John Taylor Wood, the senior surviving
officer of the latter vessel. Other promi
nent Confederate generals have engaged
to contribute, and some of these contri
butions will be hardly less notable thpn
those above mentioned. In several in
stances briefer supplementary papers
chronicle special incidents or consider
special phase3 of an engagement. Per
sonal reminiscences of several of the
most prominent military leaders, now
dead, will also give variety to tho scheme.
