THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, UNSEATING MR. BRECKINRIDGE, Report on the Famous Coutest. ‘The majority report of the House committee on elections upon the Clayton-Breckinridge contested case aud the murder of the republi- can contestant is completed and ready for sub- mission to the House. No nest attempt, the report says, to aid in bringing Clayton's murderers to justice was ever made by the local authorities. Referring to the killing of the negro detective, Smith, who was investi- gating the ballot-box theft,and of George Bentley, a brother of O. T. Bentley, who was suspected of being one of the thieves, it says George Bentley at the time was negotiating with the Pinkertons to give evidence and ex- pose the guilty parties when he was said to have been accidentally shot by his brother. While there is no direct evidence to erimina- tion in the killing of Bentley it was unfortunate, the report says, that these two killings oc- curred while the victims were about to give evidence to Pinkerton’s detectives. Continu- ing, the majority say: “No reasonable explana- ton of the murder appears, except that some of the ballot-bot thieves, finding the taking of testimony progressing, killed Col. Clayton to suppress the investigation, No other motive is possible.” The necesaity, the report says, for the enactment of some laws which will pre- vent ballot-box stealing and murder from con- ferring @ prima facia title to a seat in Congress is evident from the result in this contest. “Had such laws been in force,” the report says, “as would have prevented the contestee from tak- ing his seat with such a title, no one would | have attempted to confer such title by stealing the ballot box. Stealing was looked ‘upon as a | joke in that community until the awful conse- quences that have resulted have appalled the good people of the country. No doubt some of these men would have been deterred from tak- ing the first step im the crime if they had real- ized that murder would be the end. But they crossed their rubicon.

Government. The steamer Zealander, leaving Samoa July 15, brought to San Franciseo yesterday the news that great dissatisfaction was expressed in Apia, both by the foreign residents and loyal natives, on receipt of the news by steamer from New Zealand that America, England and Germany had further delayed the appointment of a chief justice and presi- dent of the municipal board, and that the matter bad been referred to the King of Sweden. The new government of Samoa is but little further advanced than it was two years ago, notwithstanding the fact that the Berlin conference concluded its labors more than @ year ago and formed a treaty, which King Malietoa and the chiefs of Samoan as- sented to last February, The only step which has been taken toward the new order of af- fairs is the recent appointment of a collector of customs by the tires coasule sitting as o consular board, and even this appointment does not give satisfaction, as it is generally be- lieved that though the consuls have power to make appointments they have no power to en- Sores tha pagmanl ot duveas Ths German trading firm, the largest commercial organiza- tion on the island, already pays ite duty under protest. The native chiefs say that in deference to a request of the consuls they assented to the treaty after a consideration of only twenty-four hours, and they complain bitterly that no ap- pointments have been made since then aud nothing has apparently been done toward the establishment of them, The government by consular board is regarded here asthe most undesirable form that could be devised, owing to the present unsettled condition of affairs in Samoa and the apparently slight probability of any immediate action on the part of the three powers, It is believed that trouble is imminent. Whether or not thie trouble will reach the pro- portion of another civil war similar to the one which was experienced two years ago, it is at present diflicult to state, but the same indica- tions are giveu now that were manifested be- fore the late war, it is believed that the trouble at this time would come from Mataafa’s party, which has been gaining in strength re- cently, the failure on the part of the three powers having tended to shake the faith of many of Malictoa’s supporters. Mataafa him- self went to Savaii, the largest island of the group, a short time ago, and since his return it has been learned that at least one-half of the chiefs there are in his favor. Malietoa’s followers are, of course, stronger, and in the event of another war it is thought they would be ultimately successful, but the mere prospect of another conflict is dreaded by all the foreign residents. Tamasese, who was supported by the Ger- mans two years ago, is apparently not engaged in any strife, and he is said to be enlisting the sympathy not only of the white population, but also of the most intelligent portion of Mal toa's party. Unsuccessful overtures are b lieved to have been made to him by Mataafa’s followers. King Malietoa and his chiefs regard the situ- ation as so serious that they have decided to require three consuls to appoint an adviser to the king, and they have selected Wm. Black- lock, who was the American consular represent- ative at Apia during the last war, as the adviser whom they desire. The only other man-of-war at Apia now is the United States steamer Mo- hican. ‘The trade on the island is utterly stag- nated. ———— 200 THE GOVERNOR AY VETO. The World’s Fair Bill in Danger Because of Excessive Legislation. Aspecial from Springfield, Ill, asserts that there is danger that the world’s fair bill may be vetoed by Gov. Fifer. By an amendment adopted almost in the last moment of the special session the legislature is said to have possibly exceeded powers confided by the special eall issued by Gov. Fifer. The amend- ment in question is in relation to submerged lands on the lake front, the ownership of which it is proposed to vest in the city of Chicago for park purposes after the world’s fair is ended. This directly creates a new park and legislates away the title to such submerged land as may be reclaimed, which is the property of the state. It is declared that the call contemplated legislation giving to the world’s fair ouly the use of public grounds of either state, city or park, for purposes of the fair. The ‘amend- ment passes a title with certain restrictions and creates a new park, @ proposition apparently not involved by the call and not included in the title of the bill, and the courts of the state have held time and again that “but one subject shall be included in an act, and that it shall be expressed in its title.” If Goy, Fifer is forced to veto the bill it is understood that he will not reconvene the legislature, but will allow the matter to be reimtroduced in the thirty-seventh general assembly, ame as SNATCHED FROM THE FAGor. Capt. Brown Rescues an Indian Boy From the Torture of Alaska Savages. Capt. Wm. Brown arrived in San Francisco Saturday with a seven-year-old Indian boy, whom he recently rescued from death in the heart of Alaska after an exciting fight with the savages. Capt. Brown said that while travel- ing through the wild region of Alaska he heard that a little Indian boy was about to be burned at the stake for witchcraft. ‘The tribe had been attacked with “la grippe,” which the medicine man could uot cure, and the boy, who was the son of one of the chiefs, was charged with being in league with the devil to thwart the effect of his medicine. After the deliberations of the council the father agreed to the boy’s death. There was but one escape for the boy. If the old medicine man, who was himself sick, did not die the boy should live, but meantime the little fellow was bound to a stake forseven days during very severe weather with nothing to cover him, It was believed that the more terrible his suffering the sooner the devil would be brought to terms and the medicine man cured. On the eighth day the old dgctor grew rapidly worse and it was resolved to burn the boy alive. All the preparations were made. Fires were to be lighted on the following morniug at sunrise. Savage devils were already singing death songs when the captain and his men arrived in the neighborhood, Hidden by the darkness of the forest Capt. Brown and his men crept forward on their hands and kuees. ‘They saw the boy tied amid the fagots und the blick savages lying around bi sleep the captain crawled up to the boy and cut him loose. The lad remained perfectly quiet. Suddenly one of the Indians awakened and gave the alarm. ‘The captain's force rushed in with cocked revolvers and overpowered the He then retreated with the boy to , where the party embarked by the first steamer. LS ii HAIL IN THE NORTHWEST. Roofs Pierced, Trees Stripped and Hogs and Chickens Killed. At New Richmond, Minn., a most terrific wind and hail storm came up about 11:30 yes- terday forenoon, The windows on the west and north side of every building in the village and for miles on either side in the country are broken, and about ten miles long. Al uncut grain in its path is a total loss, ‘The hail-in some in- stances is as large asahen’s egg and covered the ground for several inches. The loss is esti- mated at from $75,000 to £150,000. Many hogs were killed and hundreds of chickens perished. In some instances the pieces of ice were driven with such force as to pierce through the roofs of buildings. Sioux Falls, SD., was also hit. The storm lasted about five minutes, and did $10,000 or £15,000 damage in the way of broken windows and injury to trees and shrubbery. Reports from outside show the track uf the storm to have been forty miles wide from Beaver creek to Salem. The damage to small grain will be comparatively slight, a8 most of it was in the shock, but corn was stripped of leaves. ‘The streets of Sioux Falls remind one of an autumn, the sidewalks being strewn with leaves, while the trees stand bare. A Winona, Miua., special says: One of the heaviest wind storms that ever visited Winona struck that city about 2 o'clock this afternoon, accompanied by rai. Shade trees were blown down in all parts of the city, blocking the streets and sidewalks.

The Elections Committee Prepare a| Delay in the Formation of the New| A Summer Story of the Distant Stars and Their Majestic Motions. ‘The New York Times of yesterday says: The speed of the sun as it hurries in its southward career toward the equator incapases rapidly during August, there being more than nine de- grees decrease in northerly declination between the first and the last days of the month. This means & very perceptible lessening of our day- light, with a corresponding lengthening of darkness, The rising hour this morning was about § o'clock and this evening the sun will set soon after 7, whereas on the last Sunday in the month, which is also the Iast day of August, the length. of the day will have de creased somewhat over an hour. This change will be found to add materially to our comfor' as the earth will have that much longer to ooo! — overpowering heat and disagreeable rt ity. The moon is in last quarter on the 7th, new moon the 15th, first quarter the 2d and full moon the 29th, The moon and Saturn are in conjunction on the day following the new moon, but the distance between the two is rather too great to attract particular notice. On the day following Luna and Mercury ex- change compliments, a still greater distance separating the two than that of the previous day. Venus and the moon come as close to- gether on the 19th as they will be on any day during the month, and, although not quite close enough to offer a remarkable grouping, the effect will be well worth more than passing not Uranus next receives attention, but as he himself is rather too faint to be easily dis- tinguished the conjunction has no particular significance. On the 24th, the day after the moon quarters, she and the warrior planet pass each other at a distance of four degrees in declination apart, the planet being the further south. The moon, two days before the full, and Jupiter afford a charming celestial picture as they make their way above the eastern horizon and travel the heavenly arc in fairly close prox- imity throughout the evening. It is hard to realize, as we compare the two in size and find our satellite apparently so very much the larger, that the planet has a diameter about forty times that of the moon, or, in other words, if we compare their volumes and repre- sent the moon as the size of a pea, Jupiter will be as large as a pumpkin. THE ONLY MORNING STAR. The month opens with Neptune as the only morning star, all the beautifal planets that are in pleiner view being grouped as evening stars, and as this sole twinkler of the morning skies is rather too far away for us to see him his whereabouts is most easily found by his imme- diate neighbors, which for the constellation of the Bull, having Aldebaran as the brightest star. This group may be seen coming up above the horizon just about midnight, getting gradu- ally later each succeeding evening, an avant courier of the beautiful constellations that make the skies throughout the winter evenings 80 wonderfully radiant. Venus, in her role of Hesperus, is the first object in the western sky to attract attention asthe sun goes down below the horizon, and those having sharp vision and who know ex- actly where to look could no doubt find this planetary queen before the sun was actually sunk to rest. Saturn is gradually Heist the sun,and is inconjunction with the center of the solar system on the 30th, and his soft yellow light will be lost to us for some time. hen he re- appears it will be on the other side of the sun as one of the morning stars, Uranus is also an evening star, but is so far distant that it is invisible to the naked eye ex- cept when the circumstances are particularly favorable, Even when viewed through a tele- scope he appears not unlike a small golden marble, He is moving slowly through the con- stellation of the Virgin, the bright star Spica, to be found in this group, marking his posi- tion closely enough to give an idea of where he is to be found, ‘The moon on the 20th will be in conjunction with Uranus, and that will fur- nish another ordinate to determine his position, ‘This planet moves 80 slowly—at least his great distance makes him appear to be going much slower than the planets we are accustomed to watch—that it takes him about seven years to pass through each of the zodiacal constellations, MARS AND HIS SNOW CAPS. Mars is in the constellation of the Scorpion and comes to our meridian about 7:15 this evening and an hour earlier at the month’s close, His semi-diameter shows a lamentable decrease, proving that this orb that has been so striking and brilliant ia slowly but surely becoming dimmer as he gets further and fur- ther from us. Scientists took every advantage possible when Mars was nearest and in a post- tion most favorable for observation to photo- graph his disk, and they discovered some white spots about his south pole. It is believed that Ase) spots are the ice and snow caps of the Martial polar regions, and the enlargement of these spots that was noticed when observations were taken upon consecutive nights are held to be the indications of a great polar snow storm, Jupiter, the furthest east of the oreriag planets, rises just as the sun is about to set ani appears in the darkened backgrcund as though suddenly raised by some enchanted power, a sublime object that cannot fail to impress ever; Deholder. He is now in a most favorable posi- tion, being so far from the sun that there is nothing to detract from his dazzling brilliancy. ‘Mercury and Saturn pass close to each other on the 9th, the former hastening away from the effects of the sun’s heat, which are said to be ten times greater than that we are at present cted to, while the latter, drawn by an istible attraction, is fast approaching the fiery region. The ruling constellation of the zodiac this mouth is Sagittarius the Archer. The Milky Way toward the south is at this season well worth studying, aud as we view it with unassisted vision it is rather difficult to imagine that the faint stream of misty hght is made up of clustering stars as numerous as the sands on the seashore, each star being a sun glowing with its own’ inherent light. Where this wonderful celestial starry str the eastern sky its beauty is imtensitied by the singularly bright space in the constellation of the Swan, Pegasus, the winged horse, which may be seen above the eastern horizon, is the same con- stellation which eight months ago was above the western horizon. THE AUGUST METEORS, The astronomical writer of the Philadelphia Press says: On the evenings of the 9th and 10th of the month look out for the August meteors, or the *-Perseids,” as they are styled by astronomera. The “radiant of this system of meteors—the int from which, in whatever part of the [snes they are seen, they appear to proceed —is the constellation Perseus, the situation of which has already been pointed out, This eys- tem is quite broad or diffuse, and the earth occupies several days in passing through it, being liable to pick up flanking members of it any time from the latter part of July to the 20th of August; but the central line is passed ‘on the dates given above. ‘The meteors of this system are not numerous, but they are often of @ rare brilliancy. Pa DRY AS DUST. Terrible Condition of the Settlers on the Cherokee Strip. Allen G, Prior, a prominent cattleman of the Cherokee Strip, and a town lot boomer of Okia- homa, says the whole country’s burned toa |crisp, There will not bea crop of any kind. ‘The settlers will not have even hay enough for their horses, if they will be able to keep from selling them, which is doubtful. Corn is worth fifty ceutsa bushel in Oklahoma now and not enough has been raised to feed a span of males, Hundreds of petitions are being circulated through the territory and the adjoining states asking for help for the suffering settlers, Mr. Prior stated that the cattle of the Chero- | kee strip were in a horrible condition and that they were forced to move them by October and that there was nowhere they could be taken. There is no grazing for them, and the result is they are skin and bones. ‘I am satisfied,” said he, “that if Presiden t Harrison knew the con- | dition of affairs he would give us additional time to getout Considering how everything is burned up. and how we cannot take our cat- tle to Kansas to tatten, we should have at least uutil December 1.” eee Killed for Stealing Newspapers.
