PORTSMOUTH, Eng., August 13.—Em- peror William of Germany crossed over the Solent from Cowes to this port during the morning on board the royal yacht Al- berta. His majesty was received at the dock yard by Admiral Sir Nowell Salmon, K. C. B., V. C., and staff and all the com- anding officers of the garrison. The ships in the harbor were dressed with bunting and guns frem the forts and war vessels boomed forth salutes as the emperor landed. After a short inspection of the dock yards the emperor was escorted to a special train, which conveyed him to Aldershot camp. At Aldershot his majesty was received by the Duke of Connaught, in command of the district, and by Gen. Buller, K. C. B., V. C., the adjutant general, and by Gen. Str Francis Greenfell, G. C. M. G., and a large and brilliant staff. Also in waiting at the railroad station was a squadron of the first (royal) dra- goons, of which regiment the emperor 1s honorary colonel. The first dragoons had been ordered specially from Ireland in order to act as escort to his majesty. Major Yeneral the Duke of Teck acted as the German Emperor's perscnal orderly. Great crowds cf people cheered Emperor William and the duke as they rode toward Laffan’s Plain in order to review the troops. : The review was a mest successful affair, over 12,009 troops, including 3,000 cavalry, turning out to do honor to the emperor. The latter wore the uniform of the first (royal) dragoons anq led that regiment past the saluting point. The emperor then sta- tioned himself beside the Duke of Con- naught and closely followed the movements of each corps as it passed. BRITISH VESSELS OVERDUE. They Satled From Port in J: and February.

THE KEVOLT IN PERU. No Settled Plan Adopted by the In- surgents. LONDON, August 13.—A dispatch to the Times from Lima, Peru, says that small groups of insurgents are scattered over the whele country, and that there is a generally unsettled feeling. Commerce and agricul- ture, therefore, are much disturbed. It is added that the insurgents’ greatest strength is in the north, and they appear to have no settled plans of campaign. Gen.

Tribble's Mind Unsettled Since His Brother's Death. He Has Manifested a Propensity to Preach—Stripped His Clothes Of— ‘Taken to the Station House. Special Dispatch to The Eveniag Star. ALEXANDRIA, Va., August 13.—Quite a great deal of excitement was caused in the neighborhood of a boarding house, 1111 Prince street, about 10:30 this morning, by the wild ravings of Thad. Tribble, a young man about twenty-eight years old, who re- sides generally with his wife and three children at 1223 C street southeast, Wash- ington, D. C., who had gone crazy on the subject of religion. When the family arose at the boarding house this morning they found Tribble, stripped of all his clothes, wandering about the house preaching the gospel. Word was sent to the station house as to the man’s condition and Officers Hayes and Griffin were at once dispatched to lock him up. On their arrival at the house they had to put Tribbie's clothes on by force and tie him hand and foot in or- der to put him in the cab. Tribble has been wandering on the sub- Ject of religion for several months past, and yesterday afternoon attempted to preach a sermon on Upper Prince street, but was prevented by his friends. This Ys the first time he has become at all violent. He was at one time a brakeman on the Richmond and Danville road and married the daugh- ter of Mr. William Maddox, who Was killed in the Richmond and Danville yards in this city several years ago. He had a brother killed while braking on the road about a year ago, which affected him so deeply that he hus never gotten over it, and It is thought to be the cause of his insanity. He Was taken to the jell and locked up for ex-, amination. Tribble appears perfectly sane on all other subject: —_ BASE BALL UNPROFITABLE. President Von der Ahe’s Statem Regarding the Drowns. ST. LOUIS, August 13.—President Von der Ahe made a statement today in the course of which he dwelt at length on the affairs of the St. Louls Browns. He said: “The base ball business not having prov- ed profitable for several seasons, it became necessary for the club from time to time to raise money for its needs and purposes. The Northwestern Savings Bank declined to handle the notes or paper of the club, but required me to give my personal notes, which I did. This indebtedness to the bank or August 1, 1894, amounted to about $20,- 000. The club having a floating debt and requiring more money to carry it through the present season, I proposed to the bank that they advance $15,000 additional, and take the joint note of the club and myself for the full amount of $44,000, which note I would secure by deed of trust on my real estate and leasehold on St, Louls avenue. This proposition the bank accepted, and the notes and security were given to the bank. My individual notes to the bank were can- celed and the $14,000 placed to my credit. “Out of that I have paid the floating debt, so that its affairs stend today as follows: “It will owe the $4,000 note to the bank whea the time matures, two years from its date, and the quarterly interest notes thereon, Mr. Becker holds a note for $2,100, and there is another note for $700 outstand- ing. There are also about $i) of claims in ligaticn, arising out of the Fort Sumter show given in the park last summer. This covers all of the debt end obligations of the Sportsman's Park Club, and we have in bank about $8,000 to meet all demands and cairy the club through the season, besides the receipts for the bulance of the season. “This showing ought not to the unprejy- diced mind look like bankruptey. In regard to the future control of the affairs and bus- iness cf the Sportsman's Park Club, which are valued at over $135,000, I will say that I own and hold upward of $40,000 of its $50,- 0a) capital stock, and propose to control its affairs; at ieast, until some one pays me my price therefor. —_— > DEFEAT FOR CAMDEN, feal Contest Known in Went Virginia. BALTIMORE, August 13.—A special from Martinsburg, W. Va., says: “The warmest pclitical contest that has ever been waged in the state, occurred Saturday with the holding of the democratic primaries of Jefferson county to select dele- gates to the senatorial district delegate and county delegate conventions. The senatorial question was the issue and the lines between the Camden and anti- Camden men were rigidly drawn. The re- sult is a defeat for Senator Camden in every instance. B. W. Cattlett of Morgan county carried the county for state senator; A. 8. Dendrige, for Cytrict delegate, and Maj. A. W. MeDonala Nr county delegate. Dand- rige, unti! ten days ago,was a Camden man, and would have been defeated had he not announced his intention to vote against Senator Camden tor United States Senator. Wiliam Clements was his opponent. Mc- Donald's victory 1s a surprise to the Cam- den faction, as be was opposed by C. Moore, one of the most popular men in the state. Cattlett’s victory gives him the nomination, althougn Morgan and Berkeley counties are for Unger. — AGAINST Warmest P. PRECAUTIONS SMALLPOX. Wisconsin Health Authorities on the Watch for Suspects.

August 12.— News reaches here that Will Merritt of this city was found dead on top ef a box car run- ning between Merristown and Paint Rock, N. C. It is thought an overhead bridge struck him in the head. He and another man recently escaped from the Tennessee house of correction. They committed numer- ous robberies in and around Bristol, and were evading the officers of the law. THEY MUST LEAVE All Western-Industrials to Be Sent Away Tonight. sn COMMISSIONERS © FINAL DECISION 1 All Those Left Will Be Treated as 'Vagrants. A WET SUNDAY The edict has gone forth. The common- wealers must leave the city tonight, other- wise the Commissioners will not furnish transportation. This morning the chief of police, Mr. Frank Hume and City Passenger Agent George M. Bond of the C. and O. railroad had a conference with Commissioner Ross relative to the disposition of the remnants of the army. It was represent2d that there remained in camp about 165 men, one-half at least of whom belonged to the east. It was decided to offer transportation to the other half from the west, and those who accept it will leave tonight at 11 o’clcck. Then those who belong east will be given notice to leave the city within twenty-four hours. Jf they fail to do £0 they will be arrested as vagrants and sent to the work house. The Camp Today. _ There ts but little apparent diminishing in the ranksof commonwealers encamped in the rear grounds of the old naval observator Conflicting reports have been circulated to their numerical strength, and it is hard to determine, for as fast as some are trans- ported away others appear and fill their places. There is no anxiety on the part of the industrials as to what will be their future after tomorrow, as It seems to be un- derstood that an extersion of time will be granted. The scene was a picturesque one this morning. Little groups of men were gathered here and there, some under trees, others under small shacks of cut brush, and others under the naval observatory pavilion. About a dozen fires were ablaze, and the odor of boiling meat and vegetables permeated the atmosphere. The picturesque is added by the white walls of the old ob- servatory and the abandoned stables and outbulldings belonging to it. “Well, we are on Uncle Sam's grass, after all,” remarked one commonwealer, “and that with govern- mental authority, added another. Just then the strains of the “After the Ball” tune filled the air, the words being “After the Strike.” The discordant music ceased upon the appearance of Dr. Griffith, who has charge of the grcunds and the build- ings. He had desired to know the correct number of industrials. A commonwealer, after taking the census, reported 250, which is an increase over the number as determin- ed by a policeman, who reported 158. The contingents from Spokane and Seattle were grouped apart from the rest, and after a corsultation “the single men, one and all, agreed not to accept transportation unless it be to their homes. “We would rather go to the work ‘house here than to be shipped about like a ‘lot.of cattle, and, having been dumped on sorfie western city, be pinched and jailed gout’ there,” remarked one of them, “and we are just going to stay here, now that we are here. They can do no more than utrest us, and we will not ob- ject." There are about thirty of this class, and according to their statements Mrs. Cantwell’s division will greatly swell the number of those who will not move on. No one seems 'to know just where Mrs. Cantwell, her ttle child and the big dog are, So a committee of five was dispatched to go up above Georgetown, and another committee sent over in Maryland, to locate the female ¢ommonwealer and pilot her into the observatory/camp. ‘There is some doubt as to whether the authorities will allow her to come in, but unless orders are issued contrary she will meet no opposition from the police, who have charge of the men, or the marines, who are only guarding Uncle Sam's property. Dr. Grifiith pala a visit to the Navy De- partment this. morning and reported the condition of affairs. He seems to think there will be an extension of time, as the railroad company will transport only sixty men a night, and, while there are some who will not go, still the majority Were making preparations for their trip tonight, while others are looking forward to a trip on Wednesday, Beyond the shower this morning, the men experienced no inconvenience, there being sufficient food in camp to last them during the day. Some of the marines are keeping a watchful eye on a vegetable garden of some dimensions which belongs to the ob- servatory, and orders have been issued not to allow the industrials to enter. A group of three men, however, were overheard to remark that’ they knew where the veg etables were, end that it was an easy mat- ter to sneak in there tonight, in spite of the vigilent sentry. Communication with Dr. Griffith is main- tained by passing word along the lines, it being transmitted first to the police and then passed from the sentry on the outside to the officer in command on the inside of the building, and thence to Dr. Griffith, who, while his duty only Mes in keeping the property free from depredations and in- jury, still maintains a friendly feeling for the men, and gave orders that the stable be cleaned out and made into sleeping quar- ters for some of the industrials. Regarding the proposed farm, some are skeptical, while others confidently assert that some Washington philanthropist, who desires his rume kept quiet, is arranging for the purchase of several hundred acres of ground on the Virginia side, and in the event of its not being purchased a lease for a number of yeirs will be arranged. This land is said to be mostly timber land, and the commonweaiers will work it on the co-operative system, A Wet Sanday. The industrialites had a sorry time of it yesterday. The steady rain and the keen, raw atmesphere made life miserable. for them, and as if to make matters worse the morning broke with no fcod in sight. Pros- pective starvation was happily averted, however, by Mr, Frank Hume, to whose warm benevolence the misguided men at- tracted to Washington under the guise of industrials demanding rellef owe a great deal of gratitude. For the past three weeks Mr. Hume has been providing the hungry throngs with provisions, and yesterday he sent a large quantity of bread, beans, ba- cen, tea, coffee and sugar to the present en- campment, und lightened the cloud of gloom and discontent that had settled upon the aggregation. In the afternoon the Rev. Dr. Seymour ccrducted a religious service on the lawn in front of the old observatory building, und there was prayer and preach- ing and song. The industrials joined in the latter with -heafty willingness. Besides Dr. Seymour, Mrs.*Cowgill and Mrs. Goff also addressed the men, There was no disposi- tion on the part of the authorities to treat the industrials as prisoners in any sense. Marines f the navy yard guarded the buildmgs in’ the inclosure to prevent the strangers from entering them, but the sta- bles and outhouses on the grounds were proffered ta the-men last night for sleeping purposes, and this unlooked-for shelter from the weather was eagerly accepted It is expécted that all the men now oc- cupying the observatory grounds will be sent out of the: city to thelr homes in the west within the next forty-eight hours. Saturday night, a car containing seventy- two ,» under command of Hugh Cas- sidy, S gent by way of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad on its way to Kansas City, Mo. Mr, Frank Hum furntshe pro- visions for the travelers. Last night sixty five more, with “Lieutenant Colcne? Moody at their head, were also sent to | Kansas City, and every men aboard was glad that he was leaving Washington. In a speech before their departure “General” Jeffries wished them good, fortune and ex- pressed the hope that they would, upon reaching home, organize regiments of un- employal inea, who would be ready to march to Washington next spring in such kKumbers as to overawe the people and the rational legislature as weil. The curtous creyvd that a: mibled cheered Jeffries’ speech, but it i fornians, who hb been deluded into com; ing to the east by sgitators similar to Jef- fries, did not grow enthusiastic over the suggestion held out. The Orgnnization, The fact is, however, that the various contingents of the industrial army and the commonweal have formed a permanent or- ganization, whose purposes wer2 cutlined in The Star several days ago. A constitu- tion has been adcpted cf what is styled ‘as noticed that the Call- | “The Industria] Army Co-operative Com- monwealth of the United States,” and its legislation ae will give immediate relief. Nationalization of the currency, land, transportation, com- m.unication and all public monopolies shall be demanded; also Drege of the — of labor in tion to the ol preduction, the unabridged right of combi. nation and the repeal of all tramp and sumptuary laws. The “army” will elso demand that the unemployed be given employment by the public authorities; that silver and gold be coined free and without limit at a ratio of 16 to 1; that the people be given the right of direct legislation through initiation and referendum in connection with imperative mandate; that compulsory education be en- ferced on all children under fifteen years of age, books, clothing and meals to be fur- nished free when necessary; that apes ment of children of school age and of gir! in occupations detrimental to health or morality be prohibited, and that the con- vict labor law be abolished. The Officers. ‘The organization pledges ftself to support the political party adoptirg the principles enumerated above and provides for main- taining a force of officers in this city, Oftl- cers of the army have been electe1 to serve three months.

Brothers in Misery. The former encampment of the common- weal of Christ om the Stegmaier place n Highlands was visited by Jesse Coxey eat yesterday morning. He is alleged to have endeavored to take away a horse and buggy belonging to the commonweal, and in the row that followed it is said that Marshal Bullock, who endeavored to prevent the re- mcval, was struck on the head with a base ball bat, while a half-breed Coxey follower received a black eye. Arch Commonwealer Coxey himself is expected to revisit tbe scenes of his former greatness today. The property belonging to. the common- wealers, consisting of number of tents, horses, etc., has not yet been removed from the grounds of Mr. Stegmaier. No actica willbe taken in the matter until instruc- tions are received from the state's attorney. The Hyattsville authorities are of the opin- fon that the tents should have been re- moved when the raid was made upon the camp, so that no inducements in the way of shelter could be offered to other Coxey- ites or “industrials” who might attempt to locate there.

Correspondence of The Evening Star, ELBERON, N. J., August 11, 184. The tennis tovrnament ‘at Norwood Park lasted several days, and attracted the at- tention which is due to the fame of the men who played for the beautiful silver prize. The entries included Larned, Chase, Wrenn, the latter the champion of the United States, ard Goodbody, the English crack. The players are luxuriously housed in a cottage by themseives. After the games tea was served on the lawn by Mrs. W. D. Harper, the wife of the well-known pub- lsher, and Mrs. Henry Browning. The entries for the horse show at Holly- wood numbered one hundred and seventy- five. There were seven four-in-hand teams, and more than twenty mares and geldings. The ladies’ driving class was also splen- idly filled. Eight tandems were entered and more than a dozen horses in each jump- ing class. Some of the finest horses in the country were on exhibition. Today the farmers are allowed the opportunity to show their farm horses. The master of the Monmouth County Hunt offers three prizes valued at $100 to the farmers exhibiting the three best. single farm horses to farm wagons. The general plan of the horse show is that of the great show held at the Madi- son Square Garden, in New York city, but some of the classes were even more interest- ing thar the same events at the garden. ‘This is particulariy the case as to four- in-hand driving; the greater space permitted better display of the possibilities in this direction than ts practicable within doors. ‘The same was true of class two, which was for roadsters to wagons. In fact, except to classes which are exhibited in hand, the open air show must always have the ad- vantage which comes of ample room for maneuvering. There were twenty-one classes on the program.

Those for Stores and Su; mished the Union Army and the French Spoliation Claims. Considerable information regarding the French spoliation claims and those for stores and supplies furnished the Union forces by southern men who were loyal to the Union during the war is contained in an elaborate report recently submitted to the House by Representative Bunn of North Carolina, from the committee on claims. Some time ago there was referred to the committee a bill to provide a mode for the payment of those claims, and the report made advances many reasons why it should be enacted into law. In brief, the bill provides that the claims for “stores and supplies” and for “French spoliations” shall be annually estimated for upon lists furnished by the Court of Claims. and placed upon the sundry civil appropriation bill; that for the first year the appropria- tion shall not exceed two and one-half millions—i.e., $500,000 on the first named class and $2,000,000 on the second class—so as to pay off those which have accumulat- ed in consequence of no appropriation hay- ing been made by the last Congress, and that thereafter the appropriation shall not exceed £10,000 to each. The sums appro- priated are provided to be paid on the claims in the order in which the same are allowed by the court. Claims for Stores and Supplies. “The claims for stores and supplies,” Says the report, “are those for necessaries furnished the Union force by southern men who were during the late war loyal to the Union, whose claims have been duly presented to the southern claims commis- sion, and, not having been finally acted upon by Congress, have been referred to the Court of Claims under the ‘Bowman act,’ where they are required to establish their active loyalty by proper proof as a jurisdictional fact, and then establish the use of their property by the army and its value. It now over twenty-nine years since actual hostilities ceased, and surely their payment should not longer be post- poned. The amount of these claims has been greatly exaggerated, and on that an argument has been based for their repudia- tion, regardless of their merits.” In this connection a statement from the Court of Claims is presented, which shows that on May 4 last 2,039 cases, claiming $15,283,267, had been tried, and the sum of $2,239,313 found due thereon; and that there remained 7,106 more to be tried, claiming $22,420,805, As to the Claimants, Regarding the claimants on account of stores and supplies, the report says: “They have been compelled by stringent laws to 60 to great expense in furnishing their evi- dence. They have passed the ordeal of in- vestigation by the court never before im- posed upen citizens of the republic. Many have died in poverty, leaving helpless fam- ies. Most of them are poor, and in need of the actual necessaries of life. To refuse to make the appropriation to pay these claims reported would be a denial of justice and rank repudiation of just debts, wherein the amounts have been definitely ascertained ard fixed by a court of the highest honor, ability and integrity. The French Spoliation Claims. Of the French spoliation claims it says: “These were recognized by the French ministers throughout the negotiations as valid. ‘The sole and only defense set up was the discount of our national Hability for failure to meet our obligations under the treaty of 1778. They were released to pay the national obligation. After etghty- hve years of entreaty for payment, Con- gress sent them to the Court of Claims. ‘The court has declared that some few of them corstitute valid obligations, and now to refuse longer to pay such as the court has thus found is a reflection on the honor of a great country, for it ts in principle as well as practical repudiation.” As to the amount involved, a letter is presented from the Court of Claims, which Fe American Security & Trust Co., 1405 G St. C. 3.

Cadington this afternoon, states that they were mar- ried in’ Prince George's county, Md, Sep- tember 25, 1876, and have five children, namely, May F., aged fifteen years; Rena Edith, aged thirteen; Wade L., aged ‘ten; Mary E., aged eight, and Anneta E., aged five. The wife says that although she has &t all times since the marriage been a true, devoted and loving wife, and ever mindqu of the comfort, prosperity and happiness of her -husband, he has of late years been wholly unmindful of his marriage vows and has cruelly beaten, abused, threatened and maltreated her, and has parted and refused to support her end the children, although he is abundanuy avie to do so. Further, Mrs. Cadington recites that her husband has been a habitual drunkard for more than three years past, and that on several occasions, in bis drunken fits, he has abused and physically injured her and has repeatedly dmven herselt and children out of the house at late hours in the night, causing them to seek shelter of neighbors, Late in the evening of May 24 last, the com- plamant goes cn .o say, Mr. Came into their home. h street south- east, in a frenzy, caused by drunkenness, end severely struck and pounded her, there- by en fing her lite wnd health, an@ from whicn sne now greatly sufiers.

Mr, Cadington, the bill states, was arrested on the complaint of certain neighbors, and the same night the wite and children removed to the home of her” mother, with whom she has since resided. Mrs. Cadington also avers that her husband on several occasions has threatened to take her life, and she has reason to believe he means to do so should the occasion offer. in view of the above the petitioner asks for a divorce, the care and custody of the children and for an order of the court re- straining, Mr. Cadington from in any way molesting or intertering with her or the shows that claims for $23,162,820 (which is more than half of the highest estimate placed by any one on the amount claimed) have been finally disposed of, and awards made thereon for $3,382,201," whereof the sum of $1,204,005 has been paid, leaving a balance of $2,078,196. —aahliie CAPT. DEVERY’S TRIAL. The Next New York Police Officer to ~ Ge on the Rack. Capt. Wm. 8. Devery of the New York police department will probably be tried before the police commissioners on Wed- nesday next. He will be tried on th charges already made against him, and the additional charge of insubordination. Last Thursday the police buard held an executive session, the business of which was kept a secret. It has been learned that at that meeting Commissioner Murray pre- sented a resolution asking that two physi- clams other than the police surgeon be ap- pointed to examine Capt. Devery as to his physical condition. Dr. Allen McLane Hamilton and Dr. E. D. Fishe: were ap- pointed and instructed to get into his house with Justice of the Peace Nammock and Inspector Conlin and make an examination. Later the three sugeons and their in- Spector went to the home of Capt. Devery and he refused to allow them to make an examination. The dectors reported to the commissioners, who held a meeting after- nd decided to send a notice to Capt Devery that he would have to submit to the examination. The notice was sent and Saturday the doctors and Inspector Con- lin went to Devery’s house, and this time they were refused admissicn to the house. The committee reported to the commis- sioners, who at once proposed an addi- tional charge of insubordination for violat- ing a rule of the department, and ordered that the trial be set for Wednesday next. eee The conference between the German North Atlantic Steamship Company ard the Brit- ish steamship lines at Hamburg was a /all- ure.

The application for an tmjunction an@ for the appointment of a receiver recently filed by William S. Gill against Alexander J. Gill and Theresa M. Gill was argued to-, day in the Equity Court, before Judge Cole, Mr. R. Ross Perry appeared for the com- Plainant, while the defendants were rep- reserted by Mr. E. B. Hay. After going over the entire case, Mr. Perry asked that an injunction be ordered to prevent the disposal of the property in dispute, and that a receiver be appointed to collect such debts as may be due the firm and to pay the creditors as far as pos- sible. Mr. Hay made the point that the firm is in possession of no assets whatso- ever, and as there is nothing to receive, a receiver is useless. Judge Cole, however, replied that in his opinion, under the cir- cumstances, a receiver should be eppointed to determine whether his services are neces- sary, and he so ordered, and named idwin H. Thomas to act in that capacity. The defendants were also enjoined from dis- posing of or putting ovt of reach of the court until further order the property re- terred to.
