As speed is to be one of the most important qualities, the law stipulating twenty-three knots, the euineers and officers are making a deep study of the plans for her machinery, and expect to evolve something that will insure the success of the ship smd at some time add to the laurels of the bureau. For twenty-three knots an hour, it requires and engine capable of at least 0,000 horse power. The type or en gine has not yet been determined upon, bnt it has been practically decided to adopt the new type of coiled boilers, which have lately come into so much favor with the officers of the bureau.

Charles Kemble De Leuvillc's legal adviser, said: UI shall accompauy De Lenvillvi to America, and we shall vigorously" prosecute all those news papers that have libeled him. That Mrs. Leslie wsis ready and anxious to msirry him before she sailed for Amer ica on .Vatttrdsiy, tho 12th inst., can be proved by documents in my posses sion, smd why she should deuy the fact I do not know.'' Kemble showed me three lettera in his possession; one was from Registrar Heanie to DoLenville, dated July 11th, and read as follews: 'Mv Lerd: - I am very sorry to be unable to accede toMrs.Frank Leslie's request when, she accompanied yon yesterday to give the notice about marriage, because the superintendent is disinclined to solemnize it before 10 a. m.j the office hour on Saturday. I am, my lord, Your obedient servant, Frederick Hearne, Registrar." That Mrs. Leslie did mako this re quest, registrar Hearne assures me is a fact, about which he cannot bo mis taken. Another letter was shown mo, ssiid to be from Mrs. Leslie, which was not dated and was written on plain paper. It read: "I shall accept you as you agreed, at 12 o'clock sharp. It is for yon to think iu this matter as well as me." Lovingly, FLORENCE.

Special by Tiik Uniteh Press. Portland, July 29. To-day port captain J. W. Troup, manager of the Union Pacific water lines, issued or ders for tho tying up of both the steamers CosmopoUx and Miuluyan, and the dischargeof their entire crews. The trouble resulted from the strik ing of the engineers because of a re duction in the force; the number of men was increased when the Cosmop olisvms put on her Portlond-Paget Sound route, but as the line is not a biff, paying institution tho company decided to cut down expenses as mnch as possible. Therefore it was arranged to discharge a few men. This made the chiefs mad aud they swore they wouldn't stand it. They doubtless thought the company would dissolve its organization when they went out of its employ, but a grand mistake was made; the boats will simply lie idle and no one but the employes and the public will suffer. rtludc a Complete Job or Tt.

The EngliMi Salmon Market. The Grocers' Cfazette of July 5th says of the London maiket: Very little doing in salmon on the spot, dealers anxiously awaiting the result of the public sales to find out what is real I v the value of the salmon which they hold. A sale of 10,000 cases ot Alaska salmon, "North Pole" brand, was held yesterday, and the whole of the quantity found buyers at 18s18s Gd. Ot the Liverpool market the same journal says: Whilst tho distributive demand for salmon gives very satisfaction to deal ers, yet importers find that their hold ings are not beiug sensibly dimin ished, mid the recent and repeated auction sales have rather upset their calculations, consequently our market is rather in au uncertain condition, aud dealers are cautions how they purchase; in fact, until there is more certainty what course holders intend to pursue, they practically refrain from operating altogether.

Dominico Coella, alias Joe Smith, the murderer of John Deletes, who kept a fruit store in this city, was captured at midnight last night by deputy shcritr Wm. J. Jones and chief of police Thos. Delaney, in the woods near Port Discover.. The officers were informed that Coella was in the woods, and was well armed. Last night, about 11 o'clock, tho two officers went out in tho woods where he had last been seen, in a little cabin. They remstined there about two hours; then heard footsteps com ing down the road. They called his name and demanded him to surrender. With this the murderer fired a shot out of his rifle at tho two men, the bullet passing between them. The officers then returned the shot from a double barrelled shotgun. The prisoner yelled and fell to the ground. The officers rushed to him and thought they had killed him, but found ho had only been wouudedin the leg. He was then handcuffed and brought here. On his way to town with the officers he con fessed that he had murdered Deletes, and the cause of it was that Deletes had owed him several hundred dollars smd refused to pay, and while in a scuffling row he cut Deletes throat with a razor snd threw the body on the bed, took the keys from Deletes' pocket smd went through the chest and only found S15. He then departed for the woods. He was furnished with grub by Italian friends in this city. The reward offered for hi3 capture was $200. When the prisoner was found, he had $100 in his pockets, and claimed that ho never dreamed of be ing canght, and is now willing to suf fer. His trial comes off before Judge Sachs in this city in September. SEWS FlSOItl ALASKA. Progress of Work at ncrics. the Can. Special to Tin: Astorian San Francisco, July 29.
