She made the trip over at a comparatively slow speed. Thou sands of spectators lined the wharves the entire distance of the long water front, and watched tho pretty maneu vers of tho destroyer, aud they wit nessed a One sight, soldom seen In these waters. Arrived at Alkl Point, orders were given to let her go full speed ahead. The Miiuke poured from her two large stacks In dense columns, as she fairly flew through the blue waters of tho Sound, spurting the spray high into the air from her bow. Over to Magnolia bluff she sped, like a race horse, eager to win the highest tro phies; circling around, sh crossed back on the course Just traversed. Thla was repeated four complete trips. Arriving bark at Alkl Point, where Puget Bound steamers make their runs to the city from Tacoma. she paused, as If to catch lr breath, when the Flyer, tho fastest steamer on tho Sound, appeared. Htlll the , " - mv Ooldsborough waited. The Flyer came alongside, then passed on. The full stopped, so slow was her speed com pared to that or tho Ooldsborough. The latter was at her dock and tied up before the Flyer had blown her city whistle. Probably never again will so grand and majestic a sight bo seen as that race, and the immense crowds on the docks seemed to ap preciate It, for as the Ooldsborough drew near to her wharf, she was greet ed with tremendous shouts from a thousand and more throats. At noon the party went to the Butler cafe, where they were given a banquet by Mr. Ballln. PERRY IS TOO 8LOW. Destroyer Built by Union Works Fails.

I III (111 Serious Uprising in the Interior Provinces. THE GOVERNMENT IS GREATLY ALARMED General Tune; Pu SUn, Commander of the Northern Armlei, It at the Head ol the Movement. riCKlN. April 10.Tbo rumors which have been current during tho past few days of the outbreak of a rebellion, headed by General Tung Fu 4lan. tho ex-commander of the North ern army. In the provinces of Moti golla and Hhn-8I. have been abso lutely authenticated. LI Hung Chang and Prince Chlng have received Information on the subject which, though Indefinite, still proves that the court Is seriously alarmed. General Fu Slan was. according to last accounts, shout 150 miles from tho court with II.OOO regular troops, all supposed to be devoted to himself. The court hns about tho same number of soldiers at Blngan Fu. but It Is probable that the troops of Tung Fu Blan are better drilled and better armed. It Is believed that the Mon gollan rebellion wss brought about through the agents of Prince Tuan and General Tung Fu Slan. LI Hung Chang thinks there are about t.000 iregulur troops In Monirolla. and in. icllnes to the belief that they havw jnot Joined In the rebellion. He doea snot think the court Is In any danger, (and thinks tho object of Prince Tuan ) (who was lust reported at Nlng Hsu Slan with lO.OOti men prepared to re j slst arreBt) and General Tung Fu Slan Is to create a diversion of Intercut in , order to force unconditional protcc 1 tion of themselves. I Unofficial Chinamen of Intelligence ! regard tho rising as most unfortunato j at the present time to the Interests of China, and as of possibly meaning tho !use of foreign troops to protect even j the court Itself, The ministers of tho powers do not think that, provided I foreign Interests do not suffer, any present mierrerenco is likely. If tho dynnsty should bo overthrown, It would, to a certain eitent. delay the peace negotla! Ions, but they consider that a regime not bound by traditions like those of the present court prob ably would be much easier to deaf with eventually, as tho ceremonial could be much curtailed. Prince Chlng. who. as a relative, may be considered to take the court view of the situation, thinks tho re bellion Is a storm in a teapot. Ho says tho present court Is loved ami esteemed by nine tenths of the pop ulatlon of China, and that tho same proportion of ablo-bodled men In ' China would rise to protect tho ex isting dynasty. The empress dow- ager, as the adviser of the emperor, holds the affections of the people, not dreamt of and not understood by for eigners. Her slightest wish Is tho em peror's Inw, though he Is by no tm-ans a flgureheal, as the foreign powers frequently suppose. The emperor rec ognizes her ability, Invaluable aid and advice. The remaining bodies of Americans wero shipped homeward this morn ing. They now number 64, and will leave on board the transport Egbert tomorrow. Vhe Egbert will also take 27 military prisoners, a number of sick men, the discharged soldiers, tho teamsters and other civilians em ployed. According to expert opinion, China would be able to pay from 20.000,000 to 30.000.000 without crippling her financial resources, while the amounts which tho powers at present demand rango from 80,000.000 to 100,00, 000. WOMEN TO GO TO 80UTH AFRICA. English" Girls Apply by Hundreds for the Opportunity, NEW YORK, April 10. A rather un expected result 'has followed Mr. Chamberlain's recent speech In sup port of tho scheme for sending women out to South Africa, at tho conclusion of the war. says tho London corre spondent of tho Tribune. An enor mous number of letters hns been re ceived from women eager to emigrate and reluctant to wait until hostilities are ended. One woman who wrote direct to Lord Salisbury said sho was prepared to go out at once with her mother and slsterB, but sho Indicates no particular Bphero of usefulness. Another wroto to tho colonial office In behalf of herself and a few other "flrst-class lady barbers." Naturally, the colonial offlce authorities aro do ing their utmost to discourage appli cations from women other than those who aro self-dependent, and girls of the servant typo aro urgently advised not to go at all. It Is very doubtful whether there will be any openings for them, and tho public funds cannot be used for the purpose of granting free passages to the Capo. Flood Scare Is Over. Boston. Anril 10. Tho flood Henro all over New England, due to rising waters rrom nve days of Jeavy rains, has died out, and tonight the reports Indicated that a chanm for rhn hot. ter would come before daylight. The losses win do neavy, no doubt, but nothing to bo rnmnnrnd tn tho fronh. ets of recent springs. The reason is obvious to people In Southern New England, for the early spring left tho around nnnn tnr n trnnH annklntr and this natural absorption of the rain is taking care of much of the water, while the great surplus of the overflow, being unimpeded by ice, la rushing forward.
