Today is “green' day.” All payments yesterday were in gold. Today they were made'in paper, the predominating color of which ts green. Gold is not so:scarce today, however, as paper money was yesterday and could be obtained for the asking. Drafts and checks were, however, invar- fably paid in paper money, United States treasury notes or silver certificates, and gold was used only when a preference was expressed. The return of §old to the treas- ury was even discouraged to the extent that no coins of that metal would be ac- cepted in exchange for paper money or silver dollars. ‘The order was that no change will be given for gold. No explanation is given for the sudden return to a paper basis, and there is no indication of how long the new order of things will continue. These are days of cha.ges at the Treasury Depart- ment. It is paper today. It was gold yes- terda: It may be silver tomorrow, but that is not likely, as at present the gov- ernment is, short on silver. Treasury offi- ciais say that gold will not be paid out now except on demand, and that paper currency will be continued as long as the supply of that class of money justifies it. Although there is not more than $250,000 | available paper money in the treasury here, there is lots of it at the various subtreas- | uries that is eustly obtainable. —————+e+ CAPITOL TOPIC: A New Coinage Proposition. Senator Peffer yesterday introduced in the Senate a bill to provide for the free and unlimited coinage of gold and silver bullion. The measure provides that the standard for both gold and stlver coins shall hereafter | be such that of 1,00 parts vy weight 900 shail be of pure metal and 10 of alloy; the | alloy of silver coins to be copper and ‘that | of gold coins copper and silver, the silver | not to exceed one-half of the whole alloy. | The silver dollar is to contain 412 1-2/ grains, the half dollar 206 1-4 grains, the | quarter 103 1-8 grains and the dime il 1-4 grains. The coins are to be !egal tender for any sums whatever. In gold coins the | eagle is to contain 28, the half eagle 129 | grains and the quarter eagle 64 1-2. The silver and gold coins heretofore is- sued are to continue to be legal tender on the same terms as if they were coined un- | der this act. Gold and silver bullion brought to the mints is to be received and coined for the benefit of the depositor. All provisions of existing law reiating to coinage which are not conzvistent with the provisions of this act are to be construed in aid of its execution, and laws that con- flict with its provisions are repealed. ‘The MeGarrahan Clat The Senate committee on judiciary, through Senator Teller, has reported to the Senate, with the recommendation that it pass, a bill submitting to the court of private land claims the claim of Wm.

Little, superintendent of the Hot Springs reservation, has submitted his annual report to the Secretary of the Ji terior. A bath house for the free use of the public was opened on February 73, 1891. The report recommends that because of the high temperature of this bath cooling tanks shall be built. Repairs to the bath building are suggested. It says: “The usefulness of these baths ts hindered by thelr promiscuous use. They are overcrowded. Use wf these bat ‘by people who are simply hunting economy is unjust to the large indigent population.” The income of the government from anual ground and water rents is given as $16,750, and the total income of the government from the reservation, $10,390. The regular expenditures, not Inciuding sight and fvel, were $5,400. The report states that there are four other leases granted by the ‘lepart- ment on which no bath houses have been erected, no water supplied and no rent col- lected. When these become operative the |government’s annual income from the reser- vation should be about $12,500. SOUTH AND SILVER. THE PRESIDENT'S RETURN. THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS MR. REED IN COMMAND. Mr. Vance’s Speech in the Senate Today. MR. CLEVELAND CRITICISED. Democrats Accused of Violating Their Party Pledges. REPLY TO SENATOR GORDON. Mr. Vance of North Carolina spoke in the Senate today on the stiver repeal bill. He spoke against repeal, and took occasion to criticise the administration and the democrats who have arrayed themselves on the side of repeal. The discussion of this question, Mr. Vance said, was narrowed by the fact that all Parties profess bimetallism and have de- clared for the use of both gold and silver in thelr platforms. The conditions attached to these professions of bimetallism were, Mr. Vance said, so various that it could hardly be conceived that all were acting in good faith. With all the grave pledges of their party platform, state and national, staring them in the face, as well as their own speeches, promises and votes in the Past, blowing trumpet-tongued against the deep damnation of the taking off of silver, Some Senators clamored all the fiercer and ail the louder that the only way to save stl- ver was to repeal the one law on the statute book which gives it life. In the presence of @ position so detiant of logic and of fact it was hard to speak plainly without appear- ing to violate those courtesies which were demanded by feelings of personal respect and regard for each other. Members of Congress declared they loved silver money, bimetallism; therefore they slew it. They wanted both metals, therefore they abol- ished the one. They wanted gold and silver coined on terms of equality according to their platform, and so they stopped coining silver. They desired to maintain the parity, but cut the only cord that held silver up and permitted it to drop out of sight, Mr, Clevelam d the South. If such an interpretation of the demo- ¢ratic platform as was contended for here by those who will vote for repeal, and pre- sumably by the President, had been an- nounced during the campaign of the last year, Mr. Vance said he was quite sure Mr. Clevelard would not have carried his state (North Carolina) by 50,000 votes; and he belleved further that he could not have carried a single electoral vote south of the Potomac river. It was said that there was no abandonment of the Chicago platform in the unconditional repeal of the Sherman law, but only a postponement. He won- dered if in any of our political literature, rich as it is in ingenuity and device, full as it is of eloquence and true genius, over- burdened as it is with every conceivable and inconcelvable form of wildcatism nd humbuggery, after a hundred years of free government, wherein men of all opinions have had a chance to ventilate them, anything could be found approaching in absurdity the in- corporation in this bill of a part of the Chi- cago platform? Was there ever a cat trot- ting through the tangled thickets of the Alleghenies, or roaming over the barren wilds of the Rocky mountains, so wild and untamable as this cat? Was there ever any bug discovered and classified by science with a hum equal to the hum of this bug? ‘The democratic party in 184, 1888 and again in 1892 made certain pledges to the people that they woud mabe cortele Sunactal ledges the le woul only be = power” where they Last year it promised to secure the use of both gold and silver as | currency and maintain the parity of the two. These promises were contained in one paragraph, and in good faith are not separable. They constituted a scheme by which the financial policy of the country was to be reformed, and honor and fair dealing required those promises to be car- ried out together. Democrats were put in power, and Mr. Cleveland, though known to be personally hostile to the use of sil- ver, was elected, because the people be- Meved that he would carry out in good faith the promises made for him in the platform, and to which he acceded in his letter of acceptance. In the fulfillment of! these promises the first thing done was to yield to the clamor of capitalists and an- ticipate the regular session of Congress for the sole purpose of stopping the coinage of silver and nothing more. Repeal Will Come. ‘Mr. Vance conceded that the repeal pro- gram was likely to be carried out, but asked what would be done with the re- mainder of the platform. The banks and stock broking gamblers were given all they | wanted under this bill, but the American) people were put off with still another promise. If the promises at Chicago were not good, how, he inquired, would the prom- ises inserted in the law become any better? ‘The President, in his message, did not in- timate that anything more was to be given, and the promises contained in the bill were of so general a nature as to be evasive and Indefinite. If the party intended to enact the laws it had promised it should do it now. If the party was acting in good faith it would carry oul those pledges now, and if the friends of that platform let go of what they had before they got something else in exchange how could they justlfy them- selves before their people? If asked why he could not trust the future for the enact- ment of those laws which ought to come concurrent with the repeal of the Sherman act, Mr. Vance said his answer would be more nearly the truth than theirs—he had no confidence. Being once deceived, he could not accept any more promis as those of honest and responsible men. Answering Senator Gordon. In reply to Senator Gordon's query why the friends of silver halted between un- conditional and conditional repeal, Mr. Vance said that by conditional repeal we united the democratic party, or at least all true friends of bimetallism. By the propo- sition of unconditional repeal that was tm- possible. Bimetallism was the most popu- lar, If not the most potential, factor in the last campaign; it was the one plank com- mon to all platforms. A comparison of votes in Congress and in conventions be- fore and after the proposed repeal would form a contrast that would put to shame the wonder inspiring patent medicine ad- vertisements—“before and after taking.” Referring to Gen. Gordon's change of front, he said he believed he would be con- demned out of his own mouth, and would be compelled to say, like the wild-cyed, long-haired man who accompanied the temperance lecturer, “I go along to serve asa frightful example.” Giving and taking was fair, but when one side did all the giv- ing and’ the other side all the taking it amounted to a surrender. Thirty days from this time all obstructions to the bus- iness of the world would have passed away, and today, according to the leading finan: cial papers, an upward tendency was every- where manifested. He called upon. his friends to take heart and stand by the ob- ject of their love a little while longer. To insist upon repeal in the face of the admit- ted fact that the Sherman law was not the cause of the trouble was an acknowledg- ment that it could not be repealed without some substitute in cold blood and in times of reasonable prosperity. Appealing to Democrats. In view of the attitude of the President he knew, and other Senators knew, that any bill providing for either the free ccin- age or the limited coinage of silver could not become a law, and to permit the pass. age of this bill without attaching some other legislation to it—knowing that the other legislation could not be secured in- dependently and by Itself—was to con- sciously surrender and turn their backs upon the pledges made to the people. If democrats did this they must do it with (Continued on Fifth page.) He and His Family Reach Washington Early This Morning. ‘They Remained at the White House All Dey—A Cabinet Meeting and the Silver Question Discussed, President Cleveland, accompanied by Mrs. Cleveland, their daughter Ruth, nurse and maid, arrived in Washington this morning at 4:10 (on schedule time) from Buzzard's Bay, Mass., in a special car which left New York at 9 o'clock last night. ‘The party remained on the train until 7 o'clock, when they were met by Private Secretary Thurber, with carriages, and ¢riven to the White House in a drenching rain. Mr. Thurber was afterward asked as to the general health of the party, and he re- plied that everybody was feeling first-rate, and the sojourn at Gray Gables had been beneficial to all. Mr. Cleveland in particu- lar was, he said, in excellent spirits, his eye was bright and complexion clear, and he looked vigorous and strong. ‘The President and Mrs. Cleveland remain- ed at the White House all day.

At 11 o'clock there was a cabinet meeting at the White House, the call for which was issued about 9 o'clock. All the members in the city responded promptly. Secretary Smith was the only absentee. The session lasted until 1:15 o'clock, and, according to Secretary Carlisle, was devoted principally to the consideration of the silver question. It 1s understood that Secretary Carlisle sub- mitted a paper on that subject, which it was agreed should be made public. In Excellent Physical Health. Those who saw Mr. Cleveland in his office today assert that he is in excellent physi- cal health, and that there is no evidence whatever in his appearance of having undergone any kind of a surgical operation. Mr. Dickinson Has an Interview. Mr. Don M. Dickinson had an interview with the President this afternoon. It is believed he was summoned, for he came to the White House with Private Secretary ‘Tharber, who left there only an hour pre- vious. He is the only gentleman outside of | the President's official family who enjoyed the privilege of an audience with the Pres- ident today. 1» @¢—__ THE SUSPENSION ORDER. What is Said at the Interior Depart- ment as to the Secretary's Attitude. The order issued yesterday afternoon by Commissioner Lochren, modifying the rules as to the suspensions of the payment of pensions, has been the subject of a number of conferences between the commissioner of pensions ang the Secretary of the In- terior since the return of the latter from his summer vacation. The case was explained to a Star reporter by an official of the In- terior Department today as follows: The rule requiring suspension of pensions in cases where the record shows a reasonable doubt of pension right ts of republican ort- gin, and dates back some years. The celebrated decision of Secretary Smith in the Bennett case, in which he held that a soldier's right to a pension, under the act of June 27, 189, was dependent upon @bility to earn support by manual labor, was promulgated prior to his departure for the west on his annual vacation. Al- though this decision necessarily involved the re-examination of all claims then al- lowed under the act of June 27, the extent of suspensions was not brought to the Sec- retary’s attention till his return to Wash- ington. He learned that the number which came within the rule was surprisingly large. it had not been thought, either, that pen- stoners would have much difficulty in es- tablishing their rights. Secretary Smith, while not doubting the Justice of the rule adopted by the republi- cans as to suspensions, feared that it would werk hardship to some old soldiers who might be unable to get before examsining boards, either by reason of distance or lack of funds. He repeatedly expressed this view to those closest to him. He told Com- missioner Lochren that in the administra- tion of the law soldiers must not be unneces- sarily embarrassed. No obstacle should be tolerated that would prevent their securing the testimony required, Commissioner Lochren, who had a bril- Mant record as a Union soldier, was en- dorsed for his present position by a unanf- mous vote of the legislature of his state and a large number of other prominent citzens as a man eminently fitted to con- duct the affairs of the pension bureau. In view of this the Secretary has Intrust- ed the management of the bureau alraost entirely to Mr. Lochren, and has never in- terfered. He has only’ given advice and sel when It was sought. it is stated, has always been on the sid lentency toward the soldier. Those near the Secretary state that much of the partisan criticism heaped upon nim has been un- just. In every communication to the pen- sion bureau upon this subject he has always insisted that every soldier entitled by law to pension should have it. He did, however, want to have the law enforced in its spirit, and if the rolls did contain fraud:went cases granted in violation of law he thought that justice demanded that these-pensions ghould be discontinued. A prominent officer of the Interior Depart- ment told a reporter for The Star this afternoon that the modification order was not the result of political pressure. The pressure was the other way. The sus- pension proceedings, he said, were upheld by all the democratic press and politicians. He said that the last order was a vioia- tion of law, but was a violation in the line of equity. + © + SENATE APPOINTMENTS. Many Changes in ¢he Force Are. An. nounced Today.

He Thinks the Outlook Very En- couraging. MANUAL TRAINING. The public schools of the District of Co- lumbia will open on Monday, September 18. Only a fortnight more of vacation and then the work of the winter will begin, September 18 1s the day that has been set apart for the celebration of the Capitol cen- tennial, but this fact will not interfere with the opening of the public schools. Of course but little will be done on that day as it is the intention of the school trustees to give the children every possible chance to participate in the celebration. day of the school year but little is ever ac- complished beyond giving the children their tickets and transfer cards and straighten- ing out as far as possible the class work for the ensuing year. It takes some little time, anyhow, to get into working order such a big institution as the public school’ system that will probably provide educa- tional facilities this year for more than forty thousand pupils. Additions and Improvements. ‘There are to be no great innovations into the system, although there are to be a number of additions and improvements. The force of teachers will be increased about sixty, most of the new positions hav- ing already been filled by appointments from the graduates of the Normal School. There 1s to be but one new school occu- pied this fall. ‘This ts the Fillmore building in Georgetown, on 85th street, a few blocks above the convent. In taking possession of this new school a number of rented buildings in the vicinity will be vacated. The Curtiss bullding in Georgetown, which has hitherto been used as a graded school, will be turned over to the Western High School for its use, with the exception of a single class room, Mr. Mitchell on the Prospects. Speaking of the prospects for the coming year Mr. John 'T. Mitchell, president of the board of school trustees, said to a Star re- porter: “The outlook for the present year shows an increase in numbers as weil as the addition of valuable material to the teaching force. The Business High School, after the three years’ experience we have had with it, has proved to be one of the most valuable of all aids to public educa- tion, affording as it does the means for se- curing a livelthood to a large number of young men and women who graduate after two years’ instruction in a thorough bu: hess course that includes penmanship stehography, typewriting, bookkeeping, the elementary ‘branches of commercial’ law and other matters that are particularly connected with a preparation for an active Dusiness life, “So far as I am informed this is the entirely business course connected” with any system of public school education. Possibly there ts such a system either in San Francisco or Denver, but I am not cer- tain of it. It is perhaps the vers best branch of our public schools, after the eighth grade, which comes in between the elementary grades and the academic branch of the High School. Pupils who enter the business branch, after an examination to determine their fitness for the course, are Prepared for an active business life. The best evidence that we have of its success 1s the fact that of the first class that grad- uated, in 1892, nine-tenths of all the stu- dents have’ already succeeded in se- curing paying situations without having to invoke the aid of that unknown quantity usually denominated influ- ence. The first class in the Rusinvss High School numbered thirty-eight. I think the school will start this fall with at least 350 pupils. M Training. By far the most important addition that will be made to the public school systeun this coming year will be a considerable ex- tension of «the course of manual training. ‘rhis matter of teaching the boys how to handle tools and the girls to sew and cook has proved immensely successful since it was inaucurated in this city, and the ex- toitions of the manual training schools last June attracted a good deal of attention and favorable comment. At the meeting of the school board on July 8, after the closing of the school year, @ committee of four was appointed to con- sider the “advisability and feasibility of ex- tending the system of manual training in the schools of the District of Columbia.” The committee has been considering the mxtter carefully all summer, and President Mitchell, who ts particuiarly interested in the subject, has been torking on the re- port, which will be submitted at the first Meeiing of the trustees. The report will recommend the organiza- tion of a manual training school that shall be comparable in scope and usefulness with Business High School. The sug- gestion ts in direct line with the wishes of all the trustees, and there is no doubt that the school will’ be started with the be- ginning of the new school year. The plan of the school calls for a two years’ course for students, who shall devote all their time, probably from 9 to 4 o'clock, to learn- ing a trade, under the supervision and di- rection of’ competent and careful tn- structors. The course will supplement the present course of an hour or t a week, which naturally is not more than enough to give the students a fair start. It does not fit them to earn their own living with- out any further preparation, as the new school will do. Students who heve gone through the regular public school course, probably as far as the eighth grade will be admitted to this manual training school if they show any particular aptitude for the work. Purposes of the New System. As many students will be taken as can be accommodated. At first there will be some question as to how to provide room for them and this will limit the number at first. Later it is hoped to develop the school just as has been done with the Busi- ness High School. The boys will be taught a trade and the girls will be taught to sew and cook. In the former thi will learn not only plain sewing, but fancy sewing as well, dressmaking ‘and the advanced methods of cutting and fitting. In short, it iy the purpose of the new manual training s®hool to fit young people of both sexes to earn thelr own living by the skill of thee own hands to understand the dignity of Igor so that they shall not be ashamed to work. ee THE WARSHIP KEARSARGE. The official‘report of Capt. Crowninshield, commending the warship Kearsarge, in re- gard to the experience of that vessel and the monitor Nantucket in the hurricane of Monday last, Ims been received at the Navy Department. It corroborates the story pub- lished in yestenday’s Star and concludes as follow: “Wednesday morning I ran for Cape Hen- ry and when we were nearly up with the cape, we sighted the Nantucket steaming slowly in. = “Every one on board the Kearsarge was greatly relieved to see her, as I had ex- perienced grave doubts as to her safety. “I am informed by Lieut. Hosley, com- manding the Nantucket, that enormous quantities of water found its way down her hatches, through her decks and hawse pipe; at one time she had as much as six feet of water in her'hold, and only by a great effort was she able to clear her bilges so as to pump it out. “Lieut.

Report of the Com- mittee on Rules. During the discussion of the rules which has been in progress in the House for two or three days ex-Speaker Reed has been more actively interested, probably, than he has ever been known to be in any discussion. He has been constantly on the alert, taking part in the five-minute discussions as well as the general debate, and working with members to gather strength for proposi- tions or amendments which he favored. He has made’ some very skillful moves for the embarrassment of the democrats,and shown himself to be a master of parliamentary tactics. Taking advantage of the divided and scattering condition in which the majority party finds itself in this discussion he has taken command of the forces of the op- | position to the report of the committee | posed the cominittee on various rules have generally found themselves under his lead- It is rather an extraordinary spectacle to see the colossal form of the Maine states- man standing in a commanding attitude in the central part of the House leading his own force of republicans and encour- aging and directing the democratic “kick- In a great many questions it has been a fight between the supporters of the admin- | istration of the House and a combinativa cf | some democrats and the republicans, all under the leadership of Mr. Reed, und at times the organization has been sorely pressed in the fighting. Caaght Nap) When the amendment to the rules giving | special privilege to the coinage committee | Was adopted yesterday, however, Mr. Reed | himself was caught napping, for that amendment, though a kick over the traces, was not one approved of by him, and it got @ lot of republican votes during his absence which it would not have received if he bad | been there. Messrs. Catchings, Outhwaite, | Tracey, Cummings and Coombs saw the situation, and did all they could to save themselves, but they could do nothing ef- fective in the absence of so many of their men. The only thing now apparently is to let the matter go until there is some indica- tion of bad results from the power given the committee, and if that appears there will probably be un attempt made to amend the rules by striking out the special priv- flege to that committee. The Boatner Amendme! When the session of the House closed yes- terday they were in the midst of a very hard fight over a proposition which, while | made by a democrat, throatene? to put the majority party to a very considerable ex- | tent at the mercy of the republicans, and | to make the republicans a very much more potential factor in this Congress than, be- | ing in the minority, they had any reason to | expect. | ‘the ‘proposition was the one submitted | by Mr. Boatner, providing that the chair- man of any committee calling up a measure | for consideration might call the previous | question afte> two hours’ debate.

M>. Reed, quick to see the ad- vantage to his party from the adoption of such a clause in the rules, marshaled his forces and had a solid republican vote be- hind him in support of both of the proposi- tions, and practically took command of the forces in favor of it on both sides of the House. Defeated This Morning. When the House met this inorning the previous question had been ordered on the amendment and there was very great anx- orters of the committee on rules lest it should Le adopted. | Under the direction of Mr. [teed the advo- cates of the amendment were working with all their might to secure its adoption, and {t required the most active nustliag on the part of the committee on rules and their friends to avoid a defeat, which would have mercy of ‘the republicans at any time that they get a few democrats to join with them to force some particular ‘egislation upon the House. The fact, however, that it was made apparent that Mr. Reed was so eager for the adoption of the amendment, and that he had the solid republican vote behind him, aroused the democrats generally to an appreciation of the situation, und the com- mittee on rules was enabled to defeat the amendment. Se FORCING THE FIGHT. Mr. Voorhees Calls for 2 Vote—Tacticns im the Senate. The announcement which Senator Voor- hees made yesterday afternoon that if any lull in the proceedings of the Senate oc- curred and it became apparent that no one was prepared to continue the debate, he would immediately ask that the Senate take @ vote on the bill under consideration to re- peal the Sherman act, was carried to ful- fillment this afternoon. At the completion of Mr. Vance’s speech no one was prepared to take the floor, and Mr. Voorhees sald that In accordance with his announcement yesterday he would now ask the Senate to take a vote on the bill. Immediately Mr. Peffer and Mr. Teller were on their feet to combat this motion. Mr. Peffer obtained the floor and stated that yesterday he introduced a free coinage bill, which he would offer as an amendment to the bill before the Senate. He called up the bill and asked that it be considered as an amendment. The Senate became involved in a parliamentary discussion over how this should be done, the debate being taken part in by Senators Voorhees, Peffer, Allison, Harris and Faulkner. It was finally de- cided that the Senate should informally adopt the House bill and consider the sud- stitute as the pending business. This could not be done without unanimous assent. and to that Mr. Cockrell objected and took the floor to give his reasons. It is quite apparent now that the anti- silver men are determined to force matters and will put the silver Senators on the de- fensive and keep the debate almost con- tinuous. The finance committee today tried to reach an agreement upon what might he considered a reasonable time for debate, but no agreement could be reached. The return of President Cleveland is hafled with considerable delight by mem- bers of the Senate who are trying to en- force his destres regarding the silver ques- tion. They believe that his return will have the immediate effect of strengthening their cause and will aid considerably in reach- ing an early vote. Tt is understood that the President is stiffening the courage of the democratic members to keep them from attempting to surrender to any form of a compromise. | Up until the murderer 4 jeffort to save the hotel or its’ EXPECTING CROWDS.

AUGUSTA,Ga., Sept. 1—A special to the Chronicle from Charleston says that the steamer Yemassee, overdue since Saturday, with a full list of passengers from New York, has arrived safely. She did not encounter the storm. Other Marine Disasters. HAVANA, Sept. 1.—The steamer City of Washington, Capt. Burley, which sailed from New York on August 26, arrived here today. She had aboard Capt. Ritch and the crew of the brig Stella, which sailed from Brunswick on August 23 for New York, and was lost in the storm. NEW YORK, Sept. 1L—The steamer Bret- dablik, Capt. Nelsen, from Cardenas, ar- rived last night. On August 30 in latitude 37.20, tude 74.41, at 1 p.m., she sighte! a ai vessel and found ‘er to be the abandoned bark Vila, from Alexandria, Egypt. tor New York, with a cargo of bones and rags. A prize crew of four men was put on board and the vessel towed to this port. The Vila no doubt was dismasted in one of the hurricanes which lately passed over our southern coast and was perfectly sea- worthy. After being dismasted she was hastily abandoned by her crew. The Atlas line steamship Alvo sailed from this port August 16 for West Indian ports, with a dozen passengers and « general cargo. From the time she passed outside Sandy Hook until the present moment she has been unreported, and the gravest fears are felt for her safety. The first port of ar- rival scheduled on her papers is Gonaives, Hayti. The passage from New York to that port usually takes the Alvo from «ix to seven days. The course is directly in the path of the late hurricanes, and this fact causes alarm at her non-arrival. A possibility exists that she may have put into some island in distress, To the south, within easy reach from her course, are num- erous small islands. The majority of these are cut off from the rest of the world for ‘the greater part of the year. In some cases man might not touch foot on them for years ata time. If the Alvo is ashore on any of these islands or if she has put Into some one of them to effect repairs it will be some time before she is reported. The vessel's passengers are wealthy resi- dents of the West Indies. So far as known there are no citizens of this country among them. They are returning home for the winter and all of them carry many valua- bles in their luggage. The Alvo is valued at $20,0M. She ts fully insured in England, and it is believed that her cargo is also underwritten. The latter is said to be very valuable. ‘The steamship had a crew of sixty officers and seamen. The Alvo is built of fron, is brigantine rigged and has @ register of 2,009 tons gross. She had water-tight bulkheads and was equipped with every modern ap- pliance for the safety and comfort of pas sengers. The Sarnia Towed in Port. QUEENSTOWN, Sept. 1—The steamer others who have promised to attend will | Montevidean, Capt. Calvert, from Montreal, towed to anchorage in the harbor early this morning the steamer Sarnia, which she picked up adrift in midocean. All the pas- sengers on board the Sarnia are well and the cattle are uninjured. The Sarnia sailed from Montreal on July 29. On August 4 she broke her thrust shaft. All efforts to repair the damage were fruit- Jess and for days the vessel drifted helplers- ly. As the weather remained calm the pas- Sengers experienced little physical inconve- nience, although they suffered xeen anxiety after two weeks had passed without the sight of a sail. On August 25 the Mortevi- dean was sighted. She took the Sarnia in tov’ about 1,000 miles from Cork. ‘The rest of the voyage was uneventful. ‘The Sarnia now awaits the arrival of the tug boats which will take her to Liverpool. metre EMMA GOLDMAN'S ARREST.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1—Superintendent Byrnes said this morning that Emma Gold- man, who was arrested last night while en- tering an anarchist meeting in Philadel- phia, would not be landed in New-York be- | fore at least a week passes.
