10 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, MARCH 19, 1897. FRUNCE HAS HOT YET PUT DOWN THE INSURRECTION IN TAHITI The Messager de Tahiti Gives the French Casualties as Seven Persons Killed and Fifteen Wounded. LOSS OF REBELS NOT ENOWN. When Driven From Ose Posi- tion They Immediately Took Up Another. HARASSING THE FRENCH SOLDIERS, Lurking in the Bush They Were Constantly Making Suddcn Des- cents on the Trcops. | The barkentine Tropic Bird arrived from Tahiti yesterday after a fair run of thirty d Captain Jackson was a very | sick man while the vessel was in Papeete, but is now hale and hearty again. He says that the Bird never folded her wings during the entire trip, and when the re- cent northwester was raging she logged over 280 knots a day for three consecutive days, a splendid showing for a sailing vessel. Two days before the Tropic Bird s: d the gunboat Duguay-Trouin arrived from | the seat of war in Raiatea end Tahao. | She reported the rebels as being steadily | driven back, but nevertheless more men | and ammunition were required and the | gunboat had come for them. The French flag, which had been torn down at the commencement of the rebel- lion, had been repiaced, but the natives were still in force and seemed determined | to hold out to the bitter end. Up to Feb- | last Le Messager de Tahiti gave t of c alties on the French side as seven killed fitteen wounded. | The Messager d= Tahiti says: ‘‘Charles Grisostoni, corporal of the detachment from Noumea, was seen in the hospital | Jast Sunda While marching at the | head of hissection a discharge made by | the rebels from a ditch in which they were | hiding wounded him 1n the ankle, another | bullet perforated his pociet-book and a spear went tirgugh his hand.” The wounds of about a dozen others are then described, and without saying so, the paper indicates that the French had to re- tire. Rene le Savut was speared by the | natives, and his ammunition beinz gone and having lost his bayouet, he made a clubout of his rifie and fought like a r He was captured, but his com- | ged back and overcame the | Raiateans ana rescued their companion. | His clothes were in shreds, and beside the spear wound he was struck several times by bullets and he may die. After the battle an examination was made of the bullets fired by the natives. It was found t they were all siugs of | lead whiéh had been molded in the sand, 1d caused in consequence an ugly, jagged ound. A translation from the columns of Le Messager de Tahiti is as follows: | After the bloody encounter of Teraotos, | when the dead were buried and the wounded succored, the column commanded b; p islands | ¥ retreat | heir bullets, h w- | mark.

The infantry of the marines and o section of vol- unteers were placed at the outposs. { On the 15th after & general review by Com- | mandner Bayle the troops embarked on the Duguay-Trouin, 10 the great astonishment of the population, who. naturally iguorant of the | . project, were anxiously inquiring whether the | iroops were not abaudoning the fight and pre- prring to re-enter Papeete. Toward 2 A. M., in the pouring rain, & con. tingent of forces composed principaily of murines, reached the shores of Tahaa, at the agreed point, occupying the isthmusembraced by the bays of Apu end Hamere. The move- ment, which was 10 be_accomplished without light and in profound silence, was punctually executed. g At daybreak the attacking columg landed at | Port Toanato, at the southern t of the islsnd, preparing to charge on the enemy by a flank movement. Thus surrounded, the ad- Versary bastily abandoned the village, the troops taking possession atabout 9:30, just as the rebels were about to sit dowu to their morn- ing meal. Continuing to fight while retreating the | rebels retired 1n the direction of the isthm us | with the evident intention of reaching the piain where resistance would be easier work. it was there that they were awaited and they found themselves entirely cut off by a cordon of troops. Di. ucerted, they retreated ‘oward Mount Farewra. Finally, judging resistance useless, they showed the flag of truce, aud on the morning of the 17th capitulated. As the result of this encounter the rebels lost three men and_three were wounded. Not one of the French troops Teceived even a scratch. On the 18th, while Commanger Tiayle was entering the western const of Nora de I'Ile de Tanas, his men were attacked by a troop of rebels who were hidden in the thiciet at Mamora. An officer of the staff of the Mayor, Com- mender M. Ryckleynck, answered the shots of ihe adversaries. About thirty shois were fired, kiiling one man and wounding another. The 19th the cordon at the isthmus was Dbroken and the column invaded the fleld, which was thoroughly explored. About fifteen captives were taken and the rest of the popu- lation was reduced to compicte submission. Tahaa thus bewng completely subjugated, the troops were put aboard the Duguay-Trouin again aud were landed at Uturoa. This was decided upon a8 the basis of operations for the future. The natives were not subjugated, however. When Lieusenant Gadiot and fisty men were marching slong the beach at Tevaitoa, they were fired upon by the natives from the brush. The soldiers charged, but could not find any trace of the men. The French 0st one sergeant and three soldiers, | were strung, | in their respective reports together, but ups, sccompanied | B | tain exceeding 15 par cent thereof of while traces of blood on the ground showed that the rebels must also have suffered. From the men on the Tropic Bird it was learned that the fighting was regular bush warfare and that the rebels were fairly holding their own. 1f driven from one point they took up their quarters in an- other and awaited another vpportunity to descend upon the troops. All the volun- teers and the reserve had been ordered out, and were fo leave for the scene of ac- tion at once on the gunboat. Troops have been brought from New Caledonia and a most vigorous attempt is to be made to putdown the rebeliion once and forever. | The next boat from Tahiti should bring some stirring news. WORDS FROM CARSON. A Remarkable Feat With Four Hundred Thousand of Them. One of the great features of the big event at Carson was the stupendous task performed by the Western Union Tele- graph Company. On the day of the fight about 400,000 words of press reports, besides the great number of messagss at commercial rates, were filed 1n the improvised oftice at Car- son, and the bulk of this vast quantity of matter was filed after 6 P..M. and intended for publication all over the country the next morning. “Four bundred thousand words” will not convey any definite conception of quantity to many people, but the job was the biggest one by far in the history of priga-fighting, and has been rivaled by Na- tional conventions only. To handle this business the telegraph company had at the start one wire from Reno to Carson. The entire plant was practically rebuilt and eight new wires the cost being $20,000. | Quadruplex circuits and Wheatstone multiplex systems were put in and forty | operators provided. W.J. Martin, super- intendent of the San Francisco office, arranged the electrical facilities and Superintendent Jsynes took personal | charge. | Nearly 100 press correspondents rushed | | news was spread at the rate of 30,000 | wordsan hour, and though it was three | kours later in New York every Eastern | as well as every coast paper was served in time, winning many voluntary compli- | ments {rom leading journals. The eight wires will rest in wait for another Carson | carnival. - OF INTEREST TO THE COAST. Action Taken at Washington That Will Affeet Zhis Section. WASHINGTON, D.

Bryan’s Slayers. CINCINNATI, Onio, March 18.—Scott Jackson and Alonzo Wallinz, sentenced to hang for the murderof Pearl Bryan, in Covington, Ky., to-night submitted their “'confessions’ to the persons with whom they had “exclusively’’ arranged for their presentation to the public through the press to-morrow. Governor Bradley of Kentucky, uvon hefiring that the alieged confessions were ready insisted on considering the matter at once. Jackson’s confession covers six pages and Walling’s three. They do not deny being implicated in the causing of the death of Pearl Bryan, but claim that her death was accidental and not intended They say death resuited from an overdose of an opiate adminis- tered preparatory tv an intended criminal operation. A third person is mentioned. It is said Governor Bradley will not res- pite either man as their ‘‘confessions’ to-night directly contradict their sworn statements during their trials, The third person mentioned is said to be a professional man who has almost from the date of the murder been an in- mate of a public institution undergoing treatment. There is no attempt made to locate the missing head of the victim, which they ciaim was carried away by the person. The decapitation of course was to prevent identification, e T0 IMPROVE GERMANY'S NAVY. Proposal Made by Emperor William for Exira Naval Credits Debated in the Reichstag. BERLIN, Germaxy, March 18. —The Government’s proposals for extra naval credits were debated in the Reichstag to- day. Dr. Lieber, the leader of the Centrists, made a speech in justification of the ac- tion of the Reichstay budget committee in rejecting the Government’s demands for dditional credits for ihe construction of new cruisers and torpedo-boats, and Prince Hohenlohe, the High Imperial Chancelor, read a repor: deciaring that the incre.ses | of Gonzressman Joy of Missouri; isia can- | \0.ihe Bevy asked for by the Govarnment were necessary, and that the Government felt sure that the majority of the members of the Reichstag would concur in this view. What the Government now demanded, the Chancellor said, was the minimum sum required 1o guard the vital interests of Germany on sea and land. Prince Hohenlohe’s remarks expressing confi- dence that the majority would concur in his view were received with silence, but his reference to guarding the vital interests of Germany was applauded by the members of the Right. Herr Marschll von Bieberstein, Minis- ter of Foreign Affairs, offered the Chun- ceilor in & speech support of the Govern- ment’s proposals. Freiherr Marschall condemned the action of the budget com- mittee as extremely unwise, although he wouid not offer the suggestion that it was unpatriotic. The cruisers which the Gov- ernment had wished to construct, he said, were badly needed to protect the trade ot Germany and the German missions to open up China, as well as to retain the adherence of Germans abroad to the fatherland. [Cheers.] Vice-Admiral Holmann, the head of the imperial admiraity, then gave an opinion as a naval expert of the needs of the marine service. Herr von Cardoff, free Conservative, advocated the granting of the extra credits in the form demanded by the Government. Herr Mueller stated that the party of the Center was united 1n favor of rejecting the sums demanded for new cruisers and declared that he considered this fact as settling the fate of the Government's pro- posal. —_— FEDERAL UNION NOW PROPOSED, The Transvaal and Orange Free BState May Recoms Une Hepublic. CAPE TOWN, Eoutn AFRicA,March 18.— It is stated here, on what is regarded as good authority, that as a result of the visit of President Kruger of the Transvaal to President Stoyn of the Orange Free State a federal union of the two republics has been decided on.

LONDON, Exa., March 18.—The Times has a dispaich from Cape Town confirm- ing the report that a union between the Transvaal and the Orange kree State has been decided upon, but that so many further stages atiend the question that the statement must be taken provisionally even if it is correct. RS Feared That the Utrecht Is Lost, LONDON, Exa., March 18.—A dispatch from Brest says that it is feared that the Dutch mail steamer Utrecht from Rot- terdam for Batavia has foundered 1n_the vicinity of Ushant and a hundred persons an board have been lost. et Une Thousand Killed in Battle, MONTEVIDEO, UrueuAY, March 18.— A battle occurred yesterday in the prov- ince of Paysaudu between large bodies of Government troops and insurgents.

Found:d Ignatius College, of Which for Many Years He Was Principal. A Man of Rem:rkable Executive Ability as Well as a Priest Devoted to Duty. Father Antony Maraschi, one of the oldest and most distinguished mem bers of the Society of Jesus, died yesierday morn ing at St. Ignatius College. His death, though by no means unexpected in view of his extreme age of mearly four score years and his arduous life, was rather sudden. As late as Monday last he pursued his customary duties and at 5 o'clock in the morning of that day cele- ception by Pope Pius IX he delivered a uotable sermon. In 1855 he established the first church and schoa! of St. Ignatius on the site of the present Emporium building, where he soon began to give evidence of those qualities as a financier which subse- quently earned the respect of the City’s keenest business men. That portion of Market street was virtually beyond the City limits in those days, and the land in the vicinity was mlin]%flcompmd of bar- ren sandhills. Father Maraschi, however, foresaw the fuiure possibilities of this property, and wished to purchase the lots irom Fourth to Fifth street along Jessie, for a few hundrea dollars, but was opposed by Father Congiato, then superior of the order in California and Oregon, and an old man of 80. i The college—popularly known as Mar- aschi’s school—was incorporated April 30, 1859, and a prospectus issued in 1861 shows that there were then 144 students in at- tendance, since increased to iully 500. Maraschi was president, treasurer, prefect of studies, professor of ancient and mod- ern languages, mathematics and book- keeping. Of that first faculty only two Euvwe‘ viz.: Father F. Rafts and J. an. 4 n 1862 the brick building, {which re- placed the earlier wooden structure on arket street, was erected. 1n 1880 the splendid buildings on Hayes strect and Van Ness avenue were con- structed, and here again Father Maraschi negotiaied the purchase of the property and supervised most of the business de- tails connected with the work. The ¢eceased throughout his life showed a stern devotion to duty and a contempt for physical comforts, which are invari- by associated with the cbaracter of Loyola’s followers. He carried his aus- terities to the exireme of never sleeping in a bed and passed bis nights in an arm- chair, protected only by his cassock, of | which he rarely divested himself, and 'an I FATHER ANTONY MARASCHI, the Noted Pioneer Jesuit, Who Died Yesterday Morning. brated his last mass. He showed himself devoted to the end and did not cease to minister to the needs of the sick and dying until his failing health absoiutely compelled him to do so. . He was fully cognizant of the approach of death and received (he last sacraments in a spirit of perfect resignation. No im- mediate cause of death was named other than the weakness due to accumulating years. The remains were conveyed to the Gen- tlemen’s Sodality yesterday afternoon and will be removed thence by the 10:30 train on Saturday for interment in the cemetery of the crder at Santa Clara. A requiem mas« will be solemnized at 9 o’clock the same morning. Father Maraschi was in many respects one of the most distinguisbed and able members of the Jesuit order on cthe Pacific Coast, and to his remarkable executive ability and financial acumen the present importance of St. Ignatius College may be directly attributed. ' He relinquished his position as the principal of tuat institu- tion many years ago. He always retained the management of the funds and exer- cised a general supervision of all depart- ments. e was also a director of the La- dies’ Sodality connected with the church. Father Maraschi was born at Oleggio, in the diocese of Novaro, Italy, in Septem- ber, 1820, and studied phiosopLy and theolo.y at the seminary ot Novaro. In 1848 the revoiutionary uprisings through- out Europe led to the expulsion of the Jesuits irom many countries and the temporary dicorganization of the order. The subject of this sketch came to Amer- jca in that year and completed his educa- tion in Georgetown, Md. [n 1854, the San Francisco mission having been placed under the provinee of Turin, he came to this City and for some time acted as Arch- bishop Alemany’s assistant at the old pro- Cathedral of St. Francis, on Vallejo street, where on the occasion of the creation ot the new festival of the immaculate con- old cloak. He did this in order that he might be ever ready to answer tho call of those who needed his priestly ministra- tions, which were in constant requisition. Every morning, without exception, he was accustomed to rise before 4 o’clock, and to celebrate mass in the sacristy at 5. The rest of the day would e devoted to the performance of his parocnial duties. His judgment in all matters, both re- ligious' and secular, was regardea by his numerous admirers as almost infallible, and the appeals for his advice and assist- ance were incessant. Thousands to whom his characteristic face and diminutive figure were familiar, as well as those who knew him person- ally, will experience a pang of keen regret when they hear of his demise.

BBEER Dr. Sanden’s AR Electric Belt. HERE ARE MANY KINDS OF ELECTRIC BELTS ON THE market, Some of them generate a current that can be noticed when placed on the body, but many of them do not.
