Alaskan Travel.
For the past year the Alaskan traf
fic has increased to such an extent as
to justify the Pacific Coast Steam
ship company in running two steam
ers to Sitka. The Idaho was the
regular passenger and mail steamer,
and the Bonita made occasional trips
to carry the freight which the Idaho
could not take. The Bonita is a
handsomer vessel than the Idaho,
and carries 450 tons, while the Ida
ho's carrying capacity is about GOO
tons. It is very likely that inasmuch
as the Idaho has gotten into trouble,
the Bonita will succeed her on the
Alaskan route. It is stated on good
authority that the Olympian will be
put on the route during the summer.

CHIXAMEN DIJIVKX FK03I SEATTLE.
A Proclamation From the Governor of
"Washington Territory.
United Sfato Troop Called to the Scene
oJ Action.
The Encounter Yesterda) in Which Two
Men Were Killed and Two Wounded.
Seattle, Feb. 7. At last the long-drawn-ont
anti-Chinese agitation has
reached the culminating point, so far
as Seattle is concerned. It was
thought by many, when the United
States troops were withdrawn from
here, that the agitation was dead,
and as the weeks went by without any
overt act this opinion was strength
ened. As events show, however, the
feeling was not even dormant, and
the agitators have been quietly laying
plans all the while. An effort was
made to put these plans into execu
tion to-day, though with what success
cannot yet be said.
An anti-Chinese meeting was held
last night, at which a committee was
appointed for the ostensible purpose
of visiting Chinatown and ascertain
ing whether the city sanitary regula
tions were properly observed by the
Chinamen. The committeo com
menced its work at 7 o'clock this
morning. Headed by Acting Chief
of Police Murphy, and accompanied
by an enormous crowd, which had ap
parently come together by previous
understaudiag, it proceeded to China
town. The mode of procedure was
simple. The committee would ap
proach a China-house and knock at
the door. When the occupants ap
peared they were asked questions con
cerning the observance of the cubic
air and other city ordinances. While
the conversation was in progress the
crowd would enter the'house and be
gin packing the contents upon a
wagon, which would appear at that
juncture. It was useless for the
Chinamen to resist, and they gener
ally acquiesced with as good a graco
as possible. When their movable
goods wero loaded in the wagon they
were also placed on board and driven
to the Ocean dock, where the Queen
of the Pacific was lying ready to sail
for ban Francisco.
Not the slightest warning of this
movement had been given, and the
authorities were totally unprepared
for it. Tiie police force generally
sided with tho crowd, and made no
effort to stop tho work of removal.
Sheriff McGraw was soon on the
scene, and commanded tho mob to
disperse, but they paid no attention
to him. When he would collect a few
citizens and attempt to interfere, the
crowd would cease operations at that
point, but carry it on without cessa
tion at other quarters.
This continued for several hours.
Sheriff McGraw, Judge Green and
Mayor Yesler making such efforts as
they could in behalf of law, but with
out avail.
GOVERKOB'S PROCIiAMATIOK.
About 10 o'clock Governor Squire,
who is in the city, issued the follow
ing proclamatien:
To the people of Washington terri terri
eory: Whereas, It is represented to me
by the mayor of the city of Seattle as
follews:
Hon. Watson C. Squire Sir: The
Chinese residents of the city of Seat
tle are being unlawfully removed
from the city by a mob unlawfully
gathered together. The authority of
me cuy is noc suincienc to Keep tue
peace or preserve order. I appeal to
you for aid and assitance.
Hexby Jb. Yesler, 3Iayor.
Now, therefore, I, Watson C. Squire,
governor of Washington territory, do
hereby publish this my proclamation,
warning all persons to desist from
breach of the peace, and that peace
ably disposed persons shall retire to
their homes, except such persons as
are disposed to assist the sheriff and
the duly constituted civil authorities
in maintaining law and order. Aud
I request all persons who are disposed
to assist in maintaining order to en
roll themselves under the sheriff im
mediately for that purpose.
Furthermore, I order tho military
companies of this city to immediately
place themselves under arms, and
that the commanding officers of such
companies report forthwith to the
sheriff of King county, for the pur
pose of rendering him military assist
ance, if need be in maintaining the
law.
Done at Seattle, this, the 7th day
of February, A. D. 188G.
Watson 0. Squire,
Governor,
nowis or defiance.
This was read to the crowd. It was
received with howls of defiance. It
had absolutely no pacifying effect.
An attempt was then made to ring
tho fire bells, but they were soon . si
lenced. Two local companies of
home guards, organized at tho time
United States troops were withdrawn,
however, responded as quickly as
possible, but by the time they were
ready for action there seemed noth
ing for them to do.
About 400 Chinamen were huddled
together in the warehouse on the
Ocean dock, and the immense crowd
prevented them from returning to
their homes. Indeed none of them
showed much inclination to return,
as they were thoroughly cowed and
eager to get away.
The officers of the Queen of the
Pacific, however, refused to receive
the Chinamen without tickets. They
prepared hot water and hose, and
took every precaution to defend the
vessel from any attempt to force the
vumamen on ooara. J.n mis auem
ma a collection was raised, and
enough subscribed to pay the pass
age of about 100. These were re
ceived on board, each one expressing
a desire to go, and declining the of
fers of the officials to protect them
from violence if they remained. The
Queen of the Pacific should have
sailed at 1 p. m., but was detained in
tho hope that some arrangement
would be mtgle for the passage of
the remaining Chinamen who were
huddled on tho dock, unable to re
turn to their homes, and perfectly
willing to go.
About 5 p. m. the militia marched
down to Chinatown and took posses
sion. It was thoroughly deserted,
except by a few merchants who had
been allowed to remain temporarily.
At G p. m. a writ of habeas corpus
was issued, charging that Chinamen
were illegally restrained of liberty on
board of the Queen of the Pacific.
Tho writ was made returnable at 10
this evening. In the mean time the
steamer was enjoined from sailing.
HUDDLED ON THE DOCK.
The situation at this hour (9 p. m.)
is uncertain. A dismal rain is falling,
and the mob has largely dispersed.
The Chinamen who are not on board
the Queen of the Pacific are huddled
togetner on the Ucean dock. Two
companies of militia and about 100
home guards are patrolling the
streets. -The Oregon Improvement
company also have eighty men guard
ing its docks and warehouses.
The authorities are determined that
no Chinamen shall leave unwillingly.
Every effort will be made to avoid
bloodshed, but the utmost determin
ation is expressed on this point.
Gov. Squire, in addition to issuing
a proclamation, sent the following
telegram to the secretary of war, sec
retary of the interior and Gen. Gibbon,
commanding the department of the
Columbia.
Seattle, W. T. Feb. 7.
An immense mob is forcing the
Chinese to leave Seattle. The civil
authorities are arming a posse comit
atus to protect them. A serious
conflict is probable. I respectfully
request that United States troora be
immediately sent to Seattle. The
troop3 at Port Townsend can arrive
soonest, and probably will bo suffi
cient. I have issued a proclamation.
Watson C. Squibe, Governor.
Troops at Port Townsend and Van
couver are ready to move, and are
only awaiting orders from Washing
ton. Much surprise ia expressed that the
movement was arranged so quietly.
The city is full of strangers, and it is
hard to tell whence they come. It is
believed by many that tho plans wero
made in Tacoma, as mauy prominent
agitators from that place, as well as
reporters of both Tacoma papers, ar
rived here yesterday. Mayor Weis
bach, of Tacoma, is also here, and it
is freely asserted that he is engineer
ing the movement
GOV. SQUIRE APPEALS FOR TROOPS.
Vancouver Barraoks. W T. Fb.
7. This morning Gen. Gibbon, de
partment commander, received appli
cation from Gov. Squire for troops to
quell the riot at Seattle. He replied
that ho had no authority to move
iroopa, except py express oider or the
president. Nothing has been received
from Washington.
Seattle, Feb. 8. At ten o'clock
Capt Alexander, of the Queen of the
Pacific, appeared in court, and in
answer to the summons to produce
rne uninamen made affidavit that he
Was forciblv restrained frnm f?nino-nn
Judge Greene therefore issued nn
order to the sheriff to have the Chi
namen m court at 7:15 a. ar. This
will necessitate the removal of the
Chinamen who are on thfi KtAnrrmr.
and" will bring matters to a crisis.
.fcjvery preparation has been made for
a conflict at that hour, and from the
present aspect of affairs it seem3 un
avoidable, unless the anti-Chinese
element yields. There is little pros
pect or tneir doing this.
At Dresent the citv iq nntrnlll hv
militia and home guards. Sentries
are stationed at every corner. Every
precaution has been taken to prevent
any attempt that may be made to fire
iumutown, anu mere is now little
apprehension of that being done.
Besides 100 Chinamen on the
Queen of the Pacific, about twice as
many are in tue wprenouse on the
Oceau dock cruarded bv the nnti-fihi-
nese committee. They have been fed,
ana ior tue most part are quietly
sleeping on blankets. There are ru
mors of au attempt being made to
put these on the Portland train which
leaves here at 4 a. it., but they are
probably nothing but rumors.
Everything is reasonably quiet to
night and it i3 not likely that a con
flict, it it occurs, will take place be
fore morning. The critical moment
will bo when the sheriff attempts to
remove the Chinamen from the steam
er to the court house. A few China
houses were pillaged early in the day,
but this has now been stopped. The
authorities are active and vigilant,
and though anxious to avoid blood
shed, are determined to vindicate the
law no matter what the coat may be.
1:30 a. m. The Portland train has
just been sent out, two hours ahead
of time. This baffles the agitators,
who wished to put the Chinamen on
board.
LATEST JH2WS OBTAINABLE.
Bloodshed and Tremendous Uproar in
Seattle.
Seattle, Feb. 8. One hundred
Chinamen are on board the Queen of
the Pacific. 250 more are on the
dock. At ten la3t night Capt. Alex
ander answered the. writ nf Tinhnna
corpus before Judge Greene, saying
that he was restrained by force and
couiant produce the Chinamen as
ordered. The court said he should
have protection and to hnm timm
before him at 7:15 this morning.
aoouc ijuu men nave been sworn in.
THE VERT LATEST.
Seattle. Feb. 81 p. ii. All the
Chinese that had gone aboard the
Queen of the Pacific last night were
marched ashore this morning under
guard of the militia and deputy
sheriffs, who had been aworn in to
the number of 275. There was no
direct attempt made to stop their
transfer from the steamer to the
court room. They were joined by a
large number of their countrymen and
upon arriving at the court room
Judge Greene told them they could
go on board the Queen and go away
or stay in Seattle, just as they chose.
196 chose to go and left on the Queen.
On their way back escorting the
heathen to the steamer a few men
made a rush on the home guard and
tried to take their guns away from
them. The guards were ordered to fire,
and did so. Four fell, one instantly
killed, and three wounded. Bernard
Mulramwas killed; Jas. Murphy, a
special policeman, was shot in the
arm; John Smith was shot in the arm;
a man, name unknown, was shot in
the head, fatally. The militia then
held the crowd at bay for over an
hour till it gradually dispersed.
Seattle, Feb. 8, 2 p. sr. The ex
citement is intense. The danger is
not over yet. It is feared that more
trouble may arise as the dead may bo
avenged. There is no doubt that all
the Chinamen will go out of Seattle
now or in a very short time as they
are badly frightened. 86 more are al
ready booked for passage on the next
steamer. The ringleaders in Sun
day's and to-day's riot have been ar
rested and are in jail. They will be
prosecuted.
RETRIBUTION.
In the latter part of January the
telegraph brought an account of a
mutiny on board the American ship
Frank 2?. Thayer, off Capo of Good
Hope, while en route from Manilla to
London, and the murder of the cap
tainClarkeby his crew. The
murder and mutiny were dreadful and
deserve punishment, but there may
have been extenuating circumstances.
The previous record goes far to show
that Captain Clarke was not wholly
undeserving of his fate.
The trial of Captain Clarke of the
American ship Sunrise at San Fran
cisco in the summer of 1873 was a
criminal trial of great notoriety.
Shortly after his arrival, several of
his crew charged him with great
cruelty. He, with his two mates,
Harris aud Maloney, were tried on
these charges before Judges Sawyer
and Hoffman. The trial was long,
and was not concluded till the latter
part of October, 1873. Captain Clarke
was convicted on seven of the four
teen counts. Ho wa3 sentenced by
Judge Sawyer to fourteen months in
tho county jail, and to pay a fine of
S1,000. A month later first mat Har
ris was convicted on twenty-four
counts in tho indictment. He was
sentenced to state prison for four
years. Second mate Maloney pleaded
guilty and got off with two months
in the county Jjail. He died when in
jail three weeks. Harris served his
time. President Grant pardoned out
Captain Clarke and he paid his fine of
$1,000, and went east overland with
his wife. While in jail and negotia
tions for his pardon were pending,
his father, an old sea captain, had
come out from Boston, taken com
mand of his son's ship and sailed out
of port.
There was one feature of the trial
that aroused great indignation at the
time. It was caused by tho act of
the United States marshal iu hand
cuffing the sailors who were detained
as wilnes3es, aud marching them
from the jail where they had been
confined to the court room to give
their testimony, in irons.
The trial and attendant circum
stances were almost forgotten when,
in los2, the American ship Uatherer,
Sparks master, arrived at Wilming
ton, Ual., from New York. Clarke
was first mate, and another brute
named Watts was second mate.
While on the way out two of the
crew had jumped overboard to escape
the cruelties of the omcers. Several
of the unfortunate sailors were
maimed or disfigured for life. Watts
was tried and sent to the peniten
tiar Spaiks jumped overboard while
off the mouth of the Columbia river,
and now Clarke, one of the cruelest of
fiends that ever disgraced the deck
of an American ship, has met his
death at the hands of an iufnriated
crew in far off southern seas.
