As told ex- clusively in Tug CALL, the natives in | Raiates and Hanbeine and other islands rose in revellion and Queen Mamae led | her warriors to the contest. Tue French were fought to a standstill time and again, but in spite of all repulses they gained ground steadily and finally suodued the | natives. The Queen was captured, and is now a prisoner in New Caledonia. Those who accompanied the Queen into exile were Te Raupo, his cuief lieutenant and six others. Two hundred and fifty of the combatants who were not sent into exile were set to work buildinz crossroads leaaing into the hills and otherwise mak- ing preparations for the handy working of the troops in the event of another out- break. Forts have been built aiong the new road, and the soldiers expect to be able to subdue the next insurrection inside of a week. The schooner Maweema, bound to Viadi- vostock, is baving a hard time of it at Main-street wharf. While loading some of her flour cargo got wet and Hawley Bros. bad to putin s new consignment. When this was put in tbe hold the insur- ance men discovered that the vessel was overloaded. Then an attempt was made tounload the salt beef, and a couple of barrels burst aud ruined the entire con- signment of flour. All of yesterday John Whitney, the stevedore, was busy resack- ing the flour and restowing the big schooner, in order to satisfy Gutte & Frank, the insurance agents, who have the risk on the vessel and cargo. Cap- tains Metcalf and Watson are looking after the work of restowing, and it is safe to say that when the Maweema sails for Viadivo- stock next week she will be a safe risk. The rival steamers Pomona and Hum- boldt are an evenly maiched pwr. Both vessels run from Eureka to San Francisco, and last Thursday both boats left within an nour of each other. The Pomona won the race by elsven minutes, wtich goes to show 1hat it is a standoff vetween the two. The Humboldt is a brand new vessel an has not yet reached her full speed, while the Pomona is one of the best steamers in the Pacific Coast Steamship Company’s fleet. 1 Abrams, the well-known and popular water front salesman, is about to make a tour of the Arctic. The trip is mainly for pleasure, but Mr. Abrams is als combine business with it and incidentally il boy up all the otter skins that are | offering in the Alaskan market. | The Monowsi made her last run from | Honolula to San Francisco in record time.

On the way down and | under the most favorable circumstances the Monowai has msde the run in 6 days 2 hours.

AFTER GUIST'S STALR. The -Labor Council C'aims He Is Agent for Tenement- Made Goods. The Union Also Arrayed Against Alleged Employment of | Japanese. | A At last night’s session of the San Fran- | cisco Labor Council a letter was read which bad been sent to the Los Angeles council by Police Commissioner Gunst, in which he denied that he handles te | ment-mude goods. The local council | claims to have in its posses-ion proofs that Kerbs, Wertheim & Schiffer, whose goods are handled by Gunst, are em- ployers of tenement labor. Accordingly the secretary was instrucied to send to the Los Angeles council fuller informa tion on the subject, gleaned by the Cigar- makers’ Union, The minutes of the Los Angeles council also contained the statement that a com- mittee of three had been appointed to wait on John Hanlon, contractor on the Gov- duce him to withhold all orders for struct- ural fron from the Union Iron Wor wh ch is the lowest bidder, on account of the ciaim made that the works in ques- tion employs fiity Japanese, The secre- tary was instructed to send to the Los An- geles council further iniormation in the matter, to include the statement that the Union Iron Works discriminates against union iabor, and discharges every man ascortained to belong to a union. Secre- tary Rosenberg was also authorized to communicate with the Secretary of the N?rvy. Musicians’ Union reported that the Sprecke!s Market and the Royal Cream- ery and Butier Company have discharged their non-union men and emploved union musicians, but thatthe New Creame i going to | erie, at 725 Market street, and the Cali- fornia Market continue to employ non- union men. Compiaint was also made against the Orpheum Annex as employ- ing a non-union banda. The executive committee was instructed to visit the managers of the Orpheum, and try to in- duce them to employ union musicians in its band. The Typographical Union reported that the Allied Printing Trades isgaining more and more favor with the public and that a m,fe number of jobs given to offices not entitled to the label have been withdrawn and given 10 those entitled. C. E. Hawkes resigned as a member of the executive commiitee, as he isone of a committee selected by the International Typographical Union to meet at Indian- apolis and study up a plan that will result in a nine-hour day lor all compositors in the country. He will go to that city shortly. The vacancy was filled by the election of D. G. Poole. J. Hennegan was elected on the anditing committee, vice A.

For the past several months we have heard a great deal about the tariff meas- ure. Newspapers have filled their columns with the matter; the question wasdis- cussed in the streets, at the fireside, at the banquet-table. Merchants racked their brains trying to solve the problem. Wholesalersand man- ufacturers had their nerves sirained toa high pitch; it meant thousands of dol- lars if they could anticipate the turn. To firms dealing exclusively in woolen fabrics, the question was of vital import- ance. There was no time to theorize. Hasty action was to be taken. No one realized this better than the enterprising firm of S. N. Wood & Co., known as the Columbian Woolen Miils, The wires were kept hot carrying con- fidential information to the headquarters of this firm, 18 and 20 Astor place, New York. Thne climax was at last reached when the Government received in one day over $2.000,000 for goods taken from bond. The situation became critical. The financial manager of the firm of 8. N. Wood & Co. telegraphed for M. Wood to report at New York immeduately. Obeying instructions he left the next day. On his arrival in New York the heads of this great firm de- cided to immediately withdraw their in- voices from bond; no chances were to be taken, Their banks were called upon for heavy accommodations; the =ituation necessi- tated a demand for ready capital. Like many & New York firm they stocked their warehouses to overflowing, and aiso loaded their San Francisco houses to the very doors. In ordér to meet the obligations of the various banks Benjamin Wood, one of the Eastern managers, was ordered on to San Francisco to raise sufficient ready capital to be prepared for all emergencies in this great tariff question.

Five thousand people saw i\'l.\n Buskirk decisively relegated to the back-number class, and from 5000 throats roared the prophesy that Jeffries is the rising star in the championsnip horizon. Jeffries consumed a round and a half in blighting the aspirations of Van Bnskirk. He really accomplished that feat with the very first blow he delivered in the con+ test—which was a veritable Fitzsimmons beart punch, and had the effect of tem- porarily paralyzing Van Buskirk’s entire working system, but the leviathan from the citrus belt was as much surprised as was the Oiympian, and when he dia wake up Van Buskirk bad sufficiently recovered to partially defend him:elf. He was given an unmerciful drubbing. however, before the round closed. Van Buskirk distinguished himselt in last night's battle in only one respect, and that was by his pluck in staying with what he must have known was a hopeless roposition. e landed but one blow of consequence on his opponent’s anatomy. That was a right cross on Jeffries’ jaw, a fairly stiff one at that, but even then it was one of those desperate swings which a fighter resorts to when he is pinned against the ropes. The finishing touches were a ripping left from Jeffries, which landed in the Olympian’s abdomen, ard a crushing righthander on the jaw. It was a com- plete knockout. There were three events on the pro- gramme. The big fight was late, due to Van Bus- kirk, who was an hour behind time. Van Buskirk was attended by Vincent White, John Morgan and Frank Rafael. Jel- fries’ satellites were Billy Delaney, Billy Woods, Danny Needham and Jack Wil- liamson. Little time was lost in getting ready. ! There was the usual inaungural fiddling and cautious sparring foran opening when the men met in the center. Both evinced a liking for toe-dancing and skipped with about the nimbleness of trained eiephants at a circus. Van Buskirk soon saw an opening and rushed, a: the same time aim- ing his leit for Jeffries’ head. The Los Angeles man cleverly ducked under the blow., The men collided like two ireichtcars, and ns they did Jeffries shot his left into Van Buskirk’s lower ribs under the heart. As they broke apart Van Buskirk was seen to be reeling and oo the verge of falling to the floor, There Was an expression of pain on his face and | e seemed to have lost the power to raise | his arms or move about. In a second his attendants raised the cry that a foul blow had been delivered and jumping into the ring saved their man from falling. For a moment pande- monium reigned tnroughout.the place. “No foul,” said Referee Hiram Cook, shaking his bead, and then he ordered the seconds out of the ring. And all this ti Jeffries stood looking on with an expression of astonishment on his countenance and had apparently for- gotten that he wasone of the principals in the contest. When he did finally return to the at- tack Van Buskirk was nearly bimself aga:n and was fighting desperately. Jeffries began sending some crushing lett-handers into the German’s wind, now and then varying with voorly aimed right for the head, but Van Buskirk was plucky and showed no signsof weakening. It was evident to all, though, that barri a chance blow he was a deieated man. The battle ended in the next round. Jeffries opened with avother of those punishing lefts in the wind, and followed it with still another that fairly doubled up his man. A elinch followed, and in the breakaway Jeffries delivered a right on Van's left optic that left it puffed up like a tomato. Jeffries now followed his man about the ring, swinging right and left viciously, but really missing more blows than n-lua Market St., landed. He drove Van Buskirk to the ropes with a left jabin tue throat, and before the big Olympian could regain his balance Jeffries’ left landed with a swish into the witd. This doubled Van and brought his head forward. Jeffries saw his chance and de- livered the knockout blow with his right on the jaw. Of the two ‘‘little” fights which pre- ceded the main event, the meeting be- tween the lightweights, Maxwell and Morrisey, was the only one worth looking at. It lasted three rounds and ended in a knockout. It took Morrisey’s seconds fully five minutes to restore him to con- sciousness. The other fight was between Homer Me- Coy and Henry Slater. . How McCoy ever gOt the idea in his head that he was a pugilist it is difficult to divin: Siater played with him tor about half a round, and then began to hit hard. McCoy wanted none of that, so he laid down and pretended that he was knocked out, for which he was roundly hissed by the spec- tators. Reia S i Van Buskirk Injured. After Van Buskirk left the ring last night he complained of a severe pain in his right side. He was taken to the Yo- semite House, and there examined by Dr. Lustig. The physician found tha:i the athlete had sustained a hernia. Whether this was caused by a blow or by a strain, the doctor was unable to ay which. Van Baskirk claims that it was the blow that Jeffries delivered in the beginning of the contest, and says further that it was a foul blow at that. NOAH BROCKS IN TOWN. An 0'd-Tim2 Newspaper Man of California Revisiting Fa- miliar Places. He Kn:w Abraham Lincoln Well From 1856 Until the Mournful Day of April, 1865 Noah Brooks of New York, an old-time Californian, & newspaper man of National celebrity and a gifted contributor to re- cent literature of Abraham Lincoln, is in 8en Francisco. He was here sixteen years ago, but this is his first visit since. Mr. Brooks was at the Bohemian Club yesterday chatting about old times in California with Uncle Geor.:e Bromley and telling anecdotes of uret Harte, Mark Twain, Isaac Bromley, Sam Williams, Ben Avery and Sam Bowles. Many dinners, and good ones, Mr. Brooks has had with men who figured largely in the newspaper field of the United States. He isan entertaining talker on many lines and profoundly interesting when speak- ing of Lincoln, with whom he was well acquainted many years before the great President was ever thought of for the Presidency. In 18.6 Noah Brooks was the editor of the Dixon (IlL) Telegraph. He attended many of the meetings of the Fremont campaign, which were addressed by Abrabam Lincoln. Later on Mr..| Brooks came to California and engaged in the newspaper business at Marysville. He went East again immediately after the first election of Lincoln and became the war correspondent of the Sacramento Unicn. After the war he returned to California and_served a term as Naval Officer of tbe Port of San Francisco. He was an editorial writer on the Aita Cali- fornia from 1866 until 1871 Among his coileagues on the Alta were M. G. Upton and Colonel John C. Cremony. Subsequently Mr. Brooks went East again and was engaged on the staff of the New York Tribune. He was on the New York Times also for many years doing newsp aper duty as an editorial writer. For a time Mr. Brooks was editor of the Newark Daily Advertiser, a journal which was esiablisied 50 jong ago tha: it pub- lishea Washington's farewell address as a matter of news. When Mr. Lincoln was fnaugurated in 1861 Noah Brooks haa the good fortune to know the President as an intimate friend, and so the correspondent soon became familiar with the Cabinet officers of that time. Mr. Brooks’ recent contributions to the Centary bring to the public light many interesiing scenes at the White House during that memorable period. To usea modern expression it may be said that Noah Brooks was siated for the position of Lincoln’s private secretary for the second term. Mr. Brooks will remain in and about San Francisco for two or three weeks. He expects 10 go-to-day with Governor Budd anda others to view from Mount Tamalpais the rising of the sun Sunday morning. Owing to his long experience as a writer on morning newspapers, he wiil be able to keep awake until dawn without the slightest fatigue. ————— Found in Town Talk, The latest and freshest criticisms of the week's doings in social, political, musical and stage circles are found in to-day’s Town Talk. an In His Variety” 18 dissected by & mem- ber ot the local Four Hundred, and the fiction of the number is, as usual, entertainingly written.
