Mrs. Scribner's Nephe and Nieces Prove to Be Her Children. In 1849 a young Irish mirer named Thom- as Hogan and a woman supposed to be his wife settled in Calaveras county, Califor- nia. Several years ago Hogan died and the woman married John C. Scribner of San Andreas. When Scribner died a short time ago he left his widow in comfortable cir- cumstances. She died recently and her estate valued at $30,000 was distributed yesterday in Judge Coffey’s court. By her will the bulk of it was left to her “nephews and nieces, Elizabeth, George, Jane and Samuel Barnes of Clifton, York- shire, England.” It has been learned, how- ever, that Mrs. Scribner eloped from En- gland with Hogan years ago and that she left her property to her own children by legal marriage, but not wishing to raise the veil that had hidden her past. from them she described them in her will as her “nephews and nieces.’ 3 ———___-+-_____ PASSENGERS IN A ‘PANIC. Excursion Steamers Collide in the Lachine Rapids of the St. Lawrence. Two passenger steamers, the America of the American line, ard the Algerian of the Richelieu and Ontario ‘Navigation Com- pany, collided in the famous Lachine rap- ids of the St. Lawrence. ¢ivet, near Mon- treal, yesterday. Both were crowded with passengers, and a panic ensued when the two crafts came together, Above the roar of the ‘rapids came the grinding and splintering of wood as the two beats dashed down the? rapids together. Many of the passengers ‘fainted, and pan- demonium reigned on board No one on either boat was injured,! and’ the damage to both boats is compar: y chi bulwarks of the Ree merens SLERES ae struck the Algerian are torn away, and the wocdwork is otherwise damag The Algerian, being the larger and heavier boat, escaped serlous damage. As soor as the end of the rapids was reached the steamers were headed for docks, and the passengers disembarked. enema American Flour im China. Consul Reed at Tientsin reports to the State Department that the importation of American flour at that point is restricted solely to the needs of foreign residents, and that the standard of living among the pele gg and cheap labor afford no oppor- tunity to extend the of for their uses. ‘American aan ¢ comecolns ‘the Crone trae ait erlor quailty le of wheat, called shantung. ie us 5 IN THE EVENT OF TROU Uncle Sam Could Seize Two Japanese War- Ships. Now Building in This Country, Would Be Decided Acquisitions to e American Navy. The fact that there are two Japanese warships completely within the power cf the United States will undoubtedly cause the conqueror of China to hesitate long and Geliberately before she makes any hostile demonstration against the United States, even if the annexation of Hawaii should cause her to consider such a serious step. The ships in question are now being built in American yards—one by the Cramps at Philadelphia and the other by the Union iron works at San Francisco, and when finished they will prove powerful additions to the offensive and defensive strength of the empire of the rising sun. At the first overt act on the part of Japan, Uncle Sam would promptly seize these vessels and complete them as rapidly as possible for use against the government for which they are being constructed. Contracts for the two ships were entered into by the Japanese government shortly efter the close of the war with China, and the fact that the work was given to Amer- ican shipbuilders in preference to those of Englend, France or other European coun- tries was accepted as a high compliment to the merits of American workmanship, as well as an intlication of the warm friendship of Japan and the United States. ‘The vessels are unarmored cruisers with protected decks, modeled after the Japan- ese cruiser Yoshino, built by the Arm- strongs of England, which is similar in general design to the Baltimore and Phila- delphia cf our own navy. They will cost $1,250,000 each, and at the present rate of progress will be completed” within eighteen months. In case 6f necessity, however, they could be made ready for sea service in_much less time. Their dimensions are as follows: Length, £96 feet, extreme beam, 4% feet, and draught, 17 feet 7 inckes, with a displacement of 4,760 tons. They are provided with all the most modern improvements in naval archi- tecture, and the hulls are divided into water-tight compartments by transverse and longitudinal bulkheads. Their con- tract speed is 22% knots per hour, which is sufficient to enable them to overtake and capture any merchantman or weaker war- ship, or to escape from a more formidable foe. An eight-inch rifle forward and an- other aft, and five four-inch and five seven- inch guns, comprise the main batteries of the ships, which are supplemented with powerful secondary batteries of rapid-fire guns and five torpedo tubes, located so as to do the most damage. They are ships of the highest modern type and would prove rich prizes for Uncle Sam in the event of troubl ith Japan. THE OLDEST ARMY OFFICER. He Was Sixty Years Service. Lieut. Michael Moore, whose death was announced in yesterday's Star, was not only the oldest officer in the service of the gov- ernment, but was also one of the most in- teresting figures in the army. He was ninety-seven years old at the time of his death. From the war of 1812 up to the year 1872, when he was retired, he was in active service in the United States army, where his record was as hunorable as it was long. Military blood ran in his veins, as Lieutenant Moore's father was a sol- dier in the Continental army and played a Frominent part in the capture of the Hes- sians at Trenton. Lieutenant Mocre was born in New York city on Independence day, 1800. Fired h patriotic ardor when the war of 1812 was imminent, young Moore, with his bro- ther, walked to Albany, where they en- sted in the 13th Regiment of the national infantry. Michael, who at the time was only twelve years old, was detailed as a drummer boy. The first important battle in which he took part was the assault and capture of Fori George, Upper Canada, on May 27, 1813. Later he was at the bat- tle of Stony Creek, was with Major Gen- eral Wilkinson in his feeble efforts to cap- ture Montreal, and in the last year of the War was in the neighborhood of Sackett Harbor, where he was engaged in many fights, the last being the repulse of the 3ritish when they attempted to storm Sackett Harbor. At the close of the war of 1812 the younz man enlisted again in the 2d regiment of Infantry, commanded by Colonel Hugh Brady. In 1826 he accompanied the Gover Cass expedition, which went out to negoz- fate a treaty of peace with the Indians. Both in the Black Hawk war in the west, and the Seminole war in Florida he re- ceived experience in the methcds of Indian warfare. At the completion of the Sem- inole war he again enlisted in the regular army, and in 1841 was stationed at the re- crulting station on Bedloe's Island. He remained there until 186, when he was commissioned second lieutenant. In 1872 he received his honorable discharge, an retired to private life. He was always a man of robust consti- ‘tution and excellent health. In his long term of military service his only wound was received in his first en- gagement at Fort George. A short time ago an accidental slip resulted in a broken hip, which confined him to the house until the time of his death. Lieutenant Moore was a charter member of the Military Society of the War of 1812, and an honorary member of the Military Order of Foreign Wars. Mrs. Moore sur- vives her husband, and in next September, had he lived, they would have celebrated ed sixty-third arniversary of their mar- riage. in Active —____-e-_______ THE KLONDIKE REGION. While the River is in British Posses- sion, the Yukon Fields Are Ours, According to the views of the govern- ment officials under whose jurisdiction the matter would come, there is no doubt that the Klondike gold fields are in the British territory. Their views are, in substance, that there can be no valid objection ad- vanced to the title of Great Britain to this territory. A careful examination of all of the reliable charts and maps made far erough back in date to be free from sus- Picion of influence of the recent heavy gold finds has convinced these officers that, so far as the Klondike fields, as defined by the latest reports, are concerned, there can be no question but that they Me east of the 141st meridian, which defines the boundary line, and so are within British territory by about thirty-five miles at least. As for the meridian itself, it is said that it has been so closely located by the surveys of the Canadians and our own coast survey that there is not at any point a difference of more than 700 feet in the claimed bound- ary, which, of course, would not substan- tially affect any controversy that might grow out of the title. While it may seem beyond dispute that the Klondike region is located in British territory, it may be well to understand that this is only a small part of the gold region, nearly all of that of the entire Yukon district being in Alaska, and, there- fore, under the possession of this country. ——_e—______ VOLCANO DEALS DEATH. Five Hundred Natives Killed by the Eruption of Mayon. A special to the Chicago Chronicle from Tacoma, Wash., says: Five hundred reported killed up to July 1 {s the record of the terrible eruption of the great volcano of Mayon, on the Island of Luzon, one of the Philippine group. All night of June 24 this volcano began throw- ing up ashes end lava in immense quanti- ties, and flames were thrown upward con- siderably over 100 feet ebove the crater. The next day fifty-slx bodies were recover- ed at a considerable distance, and the most recent dispatches to Hong Kong up to July 8 stated that not less than 500 were known ‘“e'wras probable, sald the dispatches, thas the loes of life would reach into the thou- sands, depending on the length of eruption, eal ean peers reacl a Liboy, and their destruction was certain. Fifteen smaller towns between these and the volcano had been destroyed, and scores of the agricultural population had been overwhelmed while attempting to escape. VIGILANT IN THE LEAD! POLLUTING THE POTOMAC Cup Defender Wins the New York Yacht | Pulp Mills in the Cumberland Region Cause Club Race, Navahoe Gives the W Race—Brilliant Na stration at } In the great yacht race at Newport, R. I. yesterday, the Vigilant proved her su- periority once more when she won the race of the New York Yacht Club from New London to Brenton’s Reef lighthouse. The Navahoe pushed her to the finish, and led from the moment the gun sounded up to the time they squared away for the lighthouse. In tne schooner class the Col- onia won, with the Emerald second. The official time of the leaders was as fellows: Sloops, Vigilant, 2:10; Navahoe, 2:14. Schooners, Colonia, Em ald, 2:44:41. It cannot be said that the fleet came in in a bunch, for when the regatta com- mittee at Brenton’s Reef lightship, whe the racing finish was made, took the time of the four leading boats, which were the two crack sloops Vigilant and Navahoe, and the two trim schooners Emerald and Colonia, the rest of the flet were hull down in the southern horizon. The run from New London was the most satisfactory of the week, for not only did the breeze make the start close and ex- citing, but the wind held throughout and al! the yachts smothered in sail to the litle flyer with only a few kites set, bowled along right merrily, while not a few of the skippers indulged in playful luffing matches while rounding Point Ju- dith. Speaker Reed on Sachem. As the sloops were tearing through for the line the schooners were making a pretty fight for position, and when the gun was fired at 10:05 half a dozen came down for the line in a bunch. All man- aged to get over inside the time limit, with the excepticn of the Sachem, Hildegarde, and Marguerite. Sachem was surprisingly slow, in view of the fact that Speaker Reed was aboard. Hildegarde, being new, was not quite in trim, while Marguerite was bothered by a tow coming down. By the time the schooners had started the slcops were all reaching down to Race Rock, and the hottest kind of fight was on. Navahoe walked by Wasp with ease, with Vigilant hard after her, and for miles the two big sloops sailed on, neither gaining on the other. The elder Herreshoff boat was the first to turn Race Rock, and, slack- ing sheets. headed for Point Judith. The yachts rounded Race Rock in the fol- lowing order: Navahoe, Vigilant, Wasp, Queen Mab, Gloriana, Amorita, Vencedor, Colonia, Uvira, Asaoyonar, Carmita, Em- erald, Syce, Ariel, Hildegarde, Lyris, Ke- turrah, Sachem, Gevalia, Kestial, Mar- guerite and Fenella. Both Navahoe and Vigilant took a more southerly course to Point Judith, running along under balloon jibs, while the rest of the fleet set spin- nakers. The big sloops got more breeze by kee ing away, and soon were three miles ahead of Colonia and Emerald, which, in turn, had pulled away from the rest of the fleet. When half way to Point Judith, about the two latter boats had a hot luffing which resulted in Emerald getting rival to windward, but Colonia caughi her before the finish. Navahoe and Vigilant finally squared away for Brenton’s Reef lightship, setting spinnakers and bowling along in fine style. Vigilant managed to pull by her rival and finished just inside her time limit. Results of Rowing Races. The course for the boat races was a mile and a quarter long from a point off the torpedo station to buoys near the training station ,and return. In the first race the training station crew proved strongest, and won in 17: the torpedo station second, naval reserves third, Old Colony fourth. The Fort Adams crew did not start. The time made in the second race, be- tween the squadron cutters, was not as good as in the first race, but the contest attracted great attention. The second crew from the New York won in 18.50, with the Iowa second; Indiana, third; New York (first beat), fourth, and Massachusetts, filth. The Brooklyn crew did not finish. The land parade fully equated expecta- tions, and was viewed by wnat was un- doubtedly the largest crowd that ever filled Newport's streets. The landing of the marines and sailors from the warships, ) strong, began shortly after 1 o'clock. Col. A. A. Barker, R. L. M., was chief mar- shal of the day, and with his aids headed the procession. The 2d Artillery Band fol- lowed, and then in order came the foot battalion, 2d Artillery, from Fort Adams; the band from tbe training stations, the marines from all the warships in six com- panies, the band from the flagship New York, battalion of seamen from the Maine, Iewa, Massachusetts, Brooklyn, New York and Indiana, in that order; naval battalion of artillery, Newport Band, Newport Ar- tillery, Company B, 2d Regiment; Rhode Island Military Cadets, Light Battery F, Artillery, United States army, and the Hospital Corps, R. I. M. Reviewed by Secretary Long. Last night’s illumination was a fitti climax of the day’s celebration, and one that the city’s guests will not soon forget. It is estimated that fully 20,000 visitors en- joyed it. During the daytime the streets were crowded, but at night they were jam- med. The harbor was very comfortably filed with yachts of all descriptions. Nu- Merous excursion steamers crowded in throughout the day, and the great fleet of the New York Yacht Club came later. Darkness had hardly settled down before the blaze of light was kindled. The grace- ful lines of many yachts were shown by scores of electric lights and lanterns, de- pendent from the rigging, and colored fires burned all about. The warships made a magnificent display. Lights beamed out all over the powerful vessels, and their search- lights swept the sky and glared in every nook and corner of the harbor. The cruisers New York and Brooklyn and the battle ships Main2, Massachusetts, Indiana and Iowa were all lavish in their decorations. The Dolphin, too, was attractively embel- lished with electric lights. TIN PLATE INDUSTRY. Has Fallen Of in Britnin. Consul Parker at Birmingham has fur- nished the Department of State with a copy of a report made to the British ambassa- dor, ir Julian Pauncefote, by Hugh J. O'Beirne, his second secretary, containing a review of the growth of the tin plate in- avstry in the United States. It shows that the tin plate sales from England have fallen off one-half since the McKinley tariff act was passed, and that the Ameri- can preduction is steadily increasing. It 2s claimed by Mr. O’Beirne that the sligat in- crease of rates in the present tariff law over those in the Wilson law will give the United States manufacturers the California markets, which were heretofore supplied from England. Inclosed with Mr. Parker's report is an editorial from the Daily Bir- mingham Post, commenting on the report and reviewing the-tin plate trade since the McKinley law of 1890. It is claimed that the only market England can now obtain in the United States is by the drawbacks which the canners of export goods receive. —————- 2+ —_ —___ KANSAS VS. THE UNITED STATES.
