SEALERS' HARD LINES
TWO MEN ADRIFT FOR SIX DAYS
' IN A SMALL CANOE.
Their Feet, Hand and Leg. Frozen
Six Indians of a Sealing Schooner'
Crew Reported Lout While Off Cape
Flattery.
Port Townsend, Wash., Apiil 80.
The steamer Al-Ei, from Alaska,
brought to this plaoe last night two
sealers, who tell a story of much pri
vation and suffering. They are Gus
Peterson, a Swede, and a half-breed
oalled "Siwash Jimmie." They left
Victoria January 28 in a sealing
schooner, the City of San Diego. On
the 4th of April, the two men, while
out hunting seals, were lost in a blind
ing snowstorm, and driven before the
wind all night in a small oanoe. When
daylight oame, the schooner was not
in sight, and the two men were out of
sight of land, with nothing to eat but
raw frozen seal meat For six days
and nights they drifted, until finally
went on the Alaskan beaoh, 100 miles
west of Sitka, with feet, legs and
hands frozen stiff. They were pioked
up by kindly disposed Indians, who
oared for them until they were able to
be taken to Sitka, from whioh plaoe
they came here on the Al-Ei. As the
sohooner City of San Diego has not
been sighted sinoe the night of the
storm, Peterson is of the opinion that
she is lost. She had eighty skins at the
time the men left her.
Word reached here today from Neah
bay that six Indian sealers of the
sohooner Deeahks, whioh carried a full
Indian crew, were lost while sealing off
Cape Flattery. The six men left the
schooner in two canoes five days ago,
and have not sinoe been seen. After
a prolonged search they were given
up, and the schooner returned to Neah
bay and reported the loss. The In
dians are very superstitious over suoh
a thing, and are now bemoaning the
hard luck whioh they say is sure to fol
low the mishap. They say they will
now have bad luck during the rest of
the sealing season.
THE EXTREME PENALTY.
Sixty Other Committeemen Have Re
ceived Varloa. Sentences. '
London, April 80. The Chartered
South Afrioan Company has a cable
gram . from Johannesburg giving fur
ther details of the judgment of the high
oourt at Pretoria in the case of the
members of the reform committee.
This dispatch states that in addition to
the sentenoe of death passed upon John
Hays Hammond and other leaders of
the reform committee, sixty other mem
bers have been sentenced to two years'
imprisonment, a fine of 2,000 and
three years' subsequent ' banishment
The dispatch adds: "There is great
exoitement in Johannesburg' and un
less the sentenoes are speedily commut
ed trouble is expected."
The Times says in an article on the
judgment of the Pretoria oourt: "The
sentenoes were a complete surpirse, but
were regarded with equanimity solely
because it was peroeived that they
oould not be exeouted. This applied
with equal foroe to the monstrous sen
tenoe against the other prisoners (those
sentenoeed to death).
"We rely on President Eruger's com
mon sense. To exeoute these sentenoes
would be a crime from whioh we glad
ly believe Eruger would shrink. It
would be an egregious error. It is
hardly necessary to disouss the certain
consequences of the execution of the
sentences. The putting them to death
would kindle a blood feud between the
English and the Transvaal Boers. No
sober politioian oan doubt the ultimate
issue of a oonfliot between Great
Britain and the Transvaal, whatever
its alliances."
IN WASHINGTON COURTS.
County Treasurer Not Required to Show
Cash for Commissioners.
Chehalis,' Wash., April 80. The su
perior court today passed upon a case
in which county offioials all over the
state have taken muoh interest It
was in the matter of the application of
the oounty commissioners for a writ to
compel Treasurer Maynard to exhibit
the oounty funds in his possession. In
January the board aooepted, in quar
terly settlement, certified checks and
oertifioates of deposit as cash. In Feb
ruary it again demanded an account
ing, and refused to oount anything
but oash. The treasurer refused to
bring the funds to the office of the
board to be counted, but offered to take
the commissioners to the banks and ex
hibit his funds there. . Then the board
asked for a writ Judge Langhorne
denied the application today, holding
that the commissioners oould not de
mand an accounting, except at the
times provided by law; that certified
oheoks and oertifioates of deposits are
money under the statute, but if the
commissioners arbitrarily demanded to
oount the oash they might do so at the
banks, but oould not require the treas
urer to take money from the banks to
his offioe for exhibition to the board
The treasurer was sustained on every
point
DOINGS OF CONGRESS.
Routine Work of the Fifty-Fourth Ses
sionSenate. Washington, April . 20. Chandler
presented a supplemental report con
oerning alleged eleotion frauds in Ala
bama, and the naval approportiaon bill
was then taken up. The main features
of the bill are the items for four sea
going ooast-lina battleships, designed
to oarry the heaviest armor and most
powerful ordnance, and to oost $3,750,
000 each; three torpedo-boats having a
speed of thirty knots, to oost $800,000,
and ten torpedo-boats to oost $500,000.
Quay offered an amendemnt increasing
the appropriation for reserve guns for
auxiliary cruisers from $250,000 to
$400,000. Gorman commented on the
delay in furnishing guns at the vash
ington navy-yard. At one time' the
work had been muoh expedited, prob
ably as a result of- the war talk, but of
late the contractors had failed .to fur
nish the jackets, eto., of guns, and
this had occasioned delay. Stewart re
marked that there was $280,000,000
oash balanoe in the treasury. "Yes,
and considerable silver also,", said
Gorman. After further debate,
Quay's amendment was agreed to.
Washington, April 80. The senate
was plunged into an exoiting financial
debate today after several weeks of ser
ene and formal procedure on appropria
tion bills. The naval appropriation
bill was under consideration and the
item for four battleships, to oost $15,
000,000, served as a text for a speeoh
by Gorman, poinitng out that the
revenues of the govenrment are less
than the receipts. Gorman's statement
brought out an animated controversy,
in whioh Sherman, Hale and Chandler
joined issues with the Maryland sena
tor as to the responsibility for the fail
ure of tariff legislation in the present
oongress. Gorman's speeoh and the
frequent heated party colloquys it de
veloped, attraoted great interest. The
battlesihps item was not completed
when the senate adjourned.
Washington, May 1. Two notable
eeches ' by Senator Teller and
Senator Sherman, representing op
posing elements on the financial
question, were beard in the sen
ate today. , Teller address d him
self particularly to the Ohio senator,
for controverting the views held by
him and maintaining that no honest
effort had been made in the present
oongress to pass a tariff bill. The
senator referred to the MoEinley oan
didacy, saying that the motto of the
advanoe agent of prosperity was
elusive, as- no prosperity oould come
until finanoial conditions were re
formed. The climax of Teller's speeoh
was reached when he announced that
he would vote as he spoke, and that he
would not hesitate to separate himself
from the great party with, whioh he
had been allied' for forty years, if it
pronounoed for the gold standard.

with a provision for a final vote tomor
row, immediately after the reading of
the journal.
Washington, April 80. The; house-
today passed the Piokler general pen
sion bill by a vote of- 187 to 54. The
Republicans and Populists voted solid
ly in favor of the measure, and the
Democrats, with six exceptions, solid
ly against- it The seotion to whioh
the bulk of the opposition was direoted
provides that veterans otherwise entitl
ed to pensions shall not be disqualified
on aooount of prior service in the Con
federate army, provided they joined
the Union foores ninety days before
Lee's surrender. The bankruptcy bill
was taken up under a special order pro
viding for a vote Saturday at 4 o'oolok.
Quite a number of minor bills were
passed before the regular order was
demanded among them a bill to re
store the lands embraced in the Fort
Lewis military reservation, Colorado,
to the publio domain. ,
Washington, May 1. The house
spent the day in further discussion of
the bankruptcy bill. Connelly spoke
in favor of the measure, and Stone,
Newlands and Broderiok in opposition
to it Connely predioted, in the event
of the enactment of a free-coinage law,
an universal demand for bankruptcy
law. Before the bankruptoy bill was
taken up, there was some disoussion of
the treasury situation in connection
with the appropriation for this session.
Dookery declared that the liabilities
created by this oongress (including $93,
000,000' for -contracts) would reach
$605,000,000. Dingley, the leader of
the majority on the floor, defended the
appropriations, calling attention to the
fact that the house had passed a bill to
inorease the revenues. . -
