CKI5XINAL COTJBT WORK. and caused them to anticipate unusually large catches, such as undoubtedly would ha e been made had not the modus vivendi prevented the sealers from availingthem seh es for the good things in sight. The re ceipt ot the news from London has com pletely altered the position of affairs here, and s'evcral persons who had sent East to buy schooners for the fleet have cancelled their orders. The schooners now on their way will meet a profitless market, and some resident owners are casting about to find other business for their floating property. The cost of fitting out vessels, added to wages and other unavoidable expenses con nected with the sealing industry, leaves so small, if any, margin of profit at ruining prices, that few of the old hands will care to send ont their vessels next spring. A CASCADE GLACIER. FEOr. KUFFNEK'S" OBSERVATION'S OF THE ICE BIOUNTAES'S. A Small Number of Cases Cotno Up for Settlement.

An Eastern Scientist Preparing a Report on the Mineral Resources of lYashlncton State How the Professor's Boom on Paget Sound Bore Good Results. Seattle, "Wash., Oct 2a Prof. "W. H. Buffner, of Lexington, "Via., who is engaged at the present time in preparing a report on the mineral resources of the country on the west side of the Cascade Mountains, is stop ping at the Bainier Hotel. Four years ago Prof. Kuffher visited Puget Sound at the instance of the same rich syndicate, and wrote a descriptive volume of 200 pages, which proved of material value in directing the attention of the people of the East to the advantages of a comparatively new and undeveloped country. The Seattle, LakeShore and Eastern Kail wav was then being built, and its projectors lacked the requisite capital to carry their enterprise to completion. Mr. Buffrier was sent to "Washington to inspect and describe in detail the country along the Lake Shore and Eastern route. His report was emi nently satisfactory. During the present year many new and important discoveries have been made on the Sound side of the mountains, and the region promises to rival in mineral wealth the country east of the Cascades, in the Okanogan and adjoining districts. The men represented by Mr. Kuffher have stock in the Silver creek and upper Skaeit mines, and they desire him to investigate the mining properties in those localities, and to report his views and observations, in order that the syndicate may decide whether or not to put money immediately into the work of development Thus far Mr. Buffher has visited only the galena and silver mines at the head of the Cascade branch of the Skagit river, and with what he has seen there in the openings made he is most favorably impressed. The ore is of fine quality and the ledges wide and thick. Considering that the Silver creek mines have reached a more appreciable state of development, it may be esteemed a fact that Prof. Kuffher's syndicate, abiding by the letter of his future report on the miner! resources, will take advantages of the op portunity for substantial mine investment, as readily as they acted in the railway en terprise four years ago.

Philadelphia, Oct 28. Impressive ceremonies marked the consecration to-day of the Bev. Isaac Lea Nicholson, S. T; D., to the Bishopric of Milwaukee. The event took place in the Episcopal Church of St Marks, on Locust street, above Sixteenth, to which -parish the newly made Bishop has ministered for many years. The doors were thrown open as early as 5 o'clock, and at G, 7 and 8 o'clock there were celebrations of the noly communion which were partici pated in by large numbers of communicants. The regular morning prayer of the Episco pal church was also said at 9 o'clocc. The hour fixed for the consecration ceremonies was 10:30, but many of those who partici pated in the 9 o'clock tervice held their seats, and before 10 o'clock the edifice from the ground floor to the organ loft was filled to overflowing, while hundreds of people were unable to gain admission. Promptly at the appointed time the pro cession moved from the parish building and entered the church. First came the choir, singing "Holy Ghost, Illuminator, Shed Thy Beams Upon Our Eyes," Following the choir were over 200 clergy from all parts of the country. Behind these came 16 Bishops, escorting the Bishop-elect, while the vestry of the church brought up the rear. The sermon was delivered bv Bishop Grafton, ot Fond du Lac, "Wis. The oath was then administered to Bishop Nicholson, while the choir rendered the Litany. The ceremony concluded with the choir and con gregation joining in the singing of the hymn "Praise to the Holiest" The procession of clergy and bishops then reformed and passed out, giving the signal for the dismissal of the congregation. The formal enthrone ment of the Bishon will take place in Mil waukee next month. "Washington, Oct 28. Not since' the threatened complications with Italy last spring has so much war talk been heard in naval and Administration circles as over the assault on our sailors at Valparaiso. That the Administration is in earnest is evinced by the peremptory instructions cabled to Minister Egan on Friday evening last Naval officers-express the opinion that a strong fleet of war vessels at Valparaiso would materially expedite a settlement of the affair. The spirit which the Chileans usually display toward the United States and the representatives of the United States Is one that can-be subdued only by fear. Fortunately, Congress will assemble six weeks from to-morrow. By that date we shall have four cruisers at Valparaiso, and, if necessary, the number can be ma terially inoreased. This being done, Chile must either come to terms or our fleet will be ordered to shell the city of Valparaiso. It is quite proba ble, if so extreme a course as this were nec essary, that the monitor Miantonomoh would be quickly dispatched to and kept at the scene of trouble until the battle, ships were completed. The Mintonomoh will stand alone as the most formidable fighting ship we have in our navy. THE FORMIDABLE SIIANTONOMOH. Although built for home protection, naval officers generally consider her available for offensive purposes, and in view of the ser ious turn the Chilean affair has taken look upon her completion as quite timely. "With this formidable fighting ship in the harbor of Valparaiso the United States would be in a better -position to press its demand for justice than with all the cruisers we pos sess. All the Chilean vessels combined could not destroy her, while she could lie off at a distance of five miles or more and practically destroy the town with her 10 mch guns. The "emergency would be a great one that would induce Secretary xracy to senatnisvcsei outoi nome waters, for he looks upon the monitor as purely a coast defense vessel and unsuitable for fight ing at sea. This is acknowledged by most experts to be true, for her low free board brings her guns so close to the water that it would be impossible to fire them with any degree of accuracy during a heavy sea, but this argu ment would not hold good so far as her ser vice in Valparaiso barbor is concerned. There she could lie at anchor and fire her guns to the same advantage as in New York harbor. , The chief objection would be in sending her on so long a voyage, but the Secretary is convinced that this is entirely feasible. There are many officers, advocates of the monitor type, who would be perfectly will ing to guarantee her safe arrival at Val paraiso, and in the absence of other power ful ships would urge such a course if the occasion should arise.

SEALSKINS WILL BE CHEAPER, Against the Smuggling of Canadian Cloth ing Across the Border. "Washington, Oct. 2& Special Customs Inspector Sessions has informed the Treas ury Department of the seizure of several lots of clothing, valued at 5401, which had been smuggled into Troy, N. 3T., from Can ada. His report shows a systematic method of smuggling on the part of certain Cana dian tailors having customers in Troy and other cities in New York. He says an agent of the foreign tailors visits this country for the purpose of taking orders, and that the goods, when finished, are delivered to the customers free of duty by the connivance of sleeping car porters and other railroad em ployes. The smuggling of clothing from Canada and from Europe has aroused the indigna tion of domestic merchant tailors, and the Department is using every effort to correct the evil. THE GBEAT ENCAMPMENT. Military .Men in Seision at Chicago Set the Ball Rolling. Chicago, Oct 28. At to-day's session of the convention of military men it was de cided to hold a national encampment at Chicago during the "World's Fair, and that the camp be located within a radius ot 20 miles lrom the Exposition grounds. On motion of General Snowden, of Pennsylva nia, August 5 to 20, 1893, was adopted as the date of the great encampment The matter of transportation was finally decided by the adoption of a resolution that the Adjutant General of each State be ap pointed a committee of one for his State to act with Chairman Groner to arrange for all matters of transportation. It was decided that each member of the convention bo authorized to exert all honorable means to secure-the passage by Congress of suitable legislation ana appropriations. Tho Fall Sales in London Reveal a Glnt in the Market Victoria, B. C, Oct 28. Sealing men are feeling very blue over the condition of the market for sealskins. The fall seal sales at London, which determine the prices for the year, were held Monday, and, instead of sealskins being in strong demand at high figures.the market proved to be overstocked and purchasers considered 60 shillings ex cessive. The ruling quotation was 57 shil lings, orabout 513,and at this price tho only business done was transacted. Eighteen dollars was the standard price last year. The low prices in London can only be ac counted for in, one way. The reports of the large number of seals met within Bering Sea this season reached the principal buyers A Famous Diplomat in New York. New Yoek, Oct 28. Dr. Salvador de Mendonca, the Minister from the United States of Brazil to this country, was a pass enger by the steamer Majestic, which ar rived here to-day from Liverpool. Dr. Men donca was for 18 years the Consul General of Brazil at New York and a delegate to the International American Conference at "Washington, and as Minister of the new Bepublic negotiated with the United States the first reciprocity convention entered into under the tariff act ' Sickness Among Children, Especially infants, is prevalent more or less at all times, but is largely avoided by giv ing proper nourishment and wholesome food. The most successful and reliable of all is the Gail Borden "Eagle" Brand Con densed Milk. Your grocer keeps it HEE VOYAGE WOULD BE A SLOW. ONE. Her voyage there would be necessarily a slow one. Unfortunately she cannot steam faster than 10)4 knots an Hour and her coal capacity is limited to a six days' voyage, though this could be increased by storing coal in bags and placing them on deck. Ar rangements could also be made to coal her from colliers at different points en route. Even with the ordinary cruiser this would be necessary, for in time of hostilities the neutrality laws would prevent our putting into any foreign harbors fcr coal, and, as everybody knows, we have no coaling sta tions of our own in foreign parts, a convoy would doubtless be necessary for a part of tne voyage, dui tne sense o: security that would follow her presence at Valparaiso would justify sending her there in the event of trouble. Unless Chile can find some country to assist her in immediately increasing her naval establishment the United States would have no occasion to hesitate in mak ing a naval demonstration, even with our present fleet of cruising vessels. In her present crippled condition, as a result of the recent rcvolution.Chile is in no condition to cope with the naval forces we could send there within the next 90 days. "With proper enterprise on the part of the administration there would be nothing to prevent a con centration of a fleet of at least a dozen mod ern cruisers and gunboats in the South Pacific, not to mention transports and other merchant vessels that Yankee ingenuity could promptly muster into service. The Philadelphia, Kearsarge and Con cord, comprising Bear Admiral Gherardi's squadron; the Chicago, Atlanta and Ben nington, of Admiral Walker's squadron; the Newark, fitted out at Boston tor the South Atlantic, and the Petrel, at New York, could all, if the emergency demanded, be sent from the home station to Valparaiso within 99 days. These with the Baltimore, already at Valparaiso, the San Francisco, at Callao, theBoston and Yorktown, en route to Valparaiso, the Yantic, en route to Mon tevideo, and the Thetis, Banger and Mo hican, at San Francisco, would give a fleet of 16 serviceable ships. All of the number are modern except the last four, and the majority of them are superior to the best ships in the Chilean navv, with the excep tion of the Esmeralda, which compares fav- uramy viim me Baltimore. STRONG WHERE WE ARE WEAK. In one respect, however.the Chilean navy is strong where we are weak, and that is in torpedoes and torpedo boats. Besides the Almiraute Condell and Almirante Lynch, the two steel torpedo gunboats of 700 tons each, Chile has eleven first class torpedo Doats similar to our little Uusliing. It is there our cruisers would have the greatest cause to fear, for, being without torpedo nets, they have no protection against these deadly weapons except rapid fire guns that must do their work well to prevent serious damage from this source. In addition to the torpedo vessels the Chilean navy comprises three armored and seven unarmored vessels. Of the former class the Almirante Cochrane is an iron ves sel of 3,500 tons built in 1875. She has an armor belting of 9 inches and batterv pro tection of 8 inches. She carries four 2-inch and two 7-inch Armstrong breech loading rifles and 11 rapid fire guns. The most formidable armored vessel on the Chilean ship list is the Capitan Prat, a steel sheathed and copper vessel of 6,000 tons, now in pro cess of construction in France. This craft is of similar type to the cruiser Maine, building al New York, and when completed will be the most powerful vessel they have. She is heavily armored and carries her four 10-inch guns in barbettes. She is designed for a speed -of 19 knots. The Huascar, an 1,800 ton armored cruiser, carrino inn in inch muzzle loading guns and some obsolete weapons of smaller caliber. THE UNARMORED CLASS. The unarmored class consists of the, Ah- tao, a 1,050 ton corvette vessel, carrying one 20 and four 40-pounder Armstrong guns; the Chacabuco, a modern vessel of 1,100 tons carrying three 8-inch, two 20 pounder and lour 40-pounder Armstrong guns: the Esmeralda, a steel cruiser of the Charleston type, carrying two 10-inch, six 6-inch Armstrong and a number of rapid fire guns; the MagellaneS, a composite vessel of 800 tons, armed with one 7-inch breach loading rifle and a number of rapid fire guns, the corvette O'Higgins, 1,100 ton& a wooden vessel, carrying three 7-inch and four 40-pounder Armstrong guns, "and the Pilcomayo, a 600 .ton wooden craft, carrying two20-pounderand two40-pounder Armstrong. Valuable additions to the Chilean navy are the PresTdenteErrasuriz and Presidente- Pinto, just built. These are vessels of. the type of cruiser No. 10, to be launched at Baltimore this week. Besides their heavy battery bf rapid fire guns they are equipped with the latent improved Fish torpedo. These vessels have a speed of 19 knots. Don Pedro Montt, the Junta representa tive in this country, is absent from Wash ington. Mr, Julio Foster keeps the lega tion open, but wants it distinctly under stood that he is not in any way officially connected with it It is but justice to Mr. Foster, in the light of recent criticisms on his actions, to say that he never claimed to be an official representative of the Junta, but was here in the capacity of a private Chilean citizen, trying to do what he could for his adopted country. He said: IIABRISON TOO nASTT. "I never believed the report that the Chilean Government had taken no steps to ferret out the perpetrators of the outrage, if it was an outrage. Such a report is an in sult to Chilean justice. I have believed all along that the facts in the matter have been greatly exaggerated. The row evidently occurred in a saloon! Fights between American sailors and, in fact, those of any foreign country nnd the Chileans are bv no means infrequent. "The United States Government has been a little hasty, 1 think. Has it any right to demand an indemnity before the crime is proven? The trouble is that the Chilean people are not understood in this country, a fact whieh is due to meager information contained in the ordinary text books about that country and its inhabitants. "The talk about war being declared against Chile if she does not make an apology and give a money indemnity for the lives lost is, I think, premature. Those matters will all lie straightened in the most honorable way to both countries. "There is no doubt that the United States eould come around the Hom and eat us up. but in doing so she would find the whole of South America with the exception of Brazil arrayed against her. "What then would be come of that great scheme of reciprocity that seems, to be the pet idea of this Gov ernment? But the idea of a war over a common street row is absurd. Have a little patience and give Chile a chance." AT THE NAVY YARD. A dispatch from New York savs: "No further orders to fit out ships ior Chile have been received at the Brooklyn Navy Yark since the Boston sailed, but officers and men there haye an idea that other ves sels are likely to be ordered into commis sion in a few days. Naturally the news from Chille is read with a keener interest at the navy yard than anywhere else. The indignation aroused over the outrage upon the Baltimore's men has not subsided. In the event of war with Chile, there are nine vessels at the yard or in its neighbor hood, which could be fitted out for service. The Philadelphia, Atlantic Bennington, Concord, Petrel, and the big monitor Mian tonomoh, are at the yard; the Chicago is off Tompkinsville, S. I.; the Newark is at Bos ton, and the Kearsarge is in the North Biver. Of these five or six could be made ready to sail in three or four days. The Philadelphia, Chicago, Kearsarge and Ben nington would need practically nothing except coal and stores. The Atlantic alone is undergoing extensive repairs. The Miantonomoh would be a last resort, but the officers agree that if it should be thought necessary to send her there would be no great difficulty In getting her to Valparaiso, though traveling on her would not be a par ticularly cheerful experience. Like ' all monitors she is a mighty uncomfortable boat in a sea. Her four 10-inch rifles, though, would be formidable weapon when she goes to the scene of action. A FLEET NOT TO IIP ASHAMED OF. "The Philadelphia, Atlanta, Bennington, Concord andPetrel," 6aid Captain Kane yesterday, "could all get to sea in ten days or two weeks at the utmost. The Newark has gone to Boston to be fitted at the navy yard at Cbarlestown. She could be made ready in a very few days- The Chicago needs only stores. "With these vessels and the Baltimore. Boston and Yorktown at Valparaiso, we could mass a force that none need be ashamed of nine ships, and each ex cellent in her class. The Petrel is already provisioned and stored for a long voyage, being under orders for China by way of the Suez Canal, but, of course, she could go to South America if it were desired, Except the Atlanta I raav say that the other vessels are also practically ready for sea. "All these snips have their lull comple ment of officers and men and are fairly well supplied with the munitions of war. "Com ing down to details, they might not have enough armor piercing shells for a protract ed engagement or a series of engagements, but they have their usual fighting quota. If they should start now I should think they could all get to Valparaiso within two months, allowing for the necessary steps for coal." Lieutenant Marrick, who commanded the Philadelphia yesterday in the absence of Captain Bogers, said that his ship could be at Valparaiso in forty days, allowing for a few days' delay in getting away, for stops for coai and estimating the distance to be sailed at 900 miles. "The Philadelphia is practically ready to Btart now," said the Lieutenant 'The only thing we are weak in is our torpedo supply, The Government has not decided yet as to what sort of automobile torpedoes it will supply us with, and the only thing of the kind we nave now is of the spar type, which doesn't amount to much. "If the Miantonomoh were ready she would be the best boat we have as a fighter, but un less the work were pressed it would probably take a month to prepare her for such a vojage. She is designed for a harbor de fense vessel and is slow. It would take a long time for he,r to get to Valparaiso, but there would be no discounting her strength in a fight IGAVE'UPTHE chase? A Deserted Husband, PttrsTiiiis His Wife, Kesorts to. Suicide. NEW ADVEKTigE3EIfTS. THE SAD END OP A HONEYMOON. Mrs. Marshall Flees for Her Life and Begins a Divorce Suit. DE IS ALLEGED TO BE A U. S. NATAL MAN Chicago, Oct. 28. Edwin E. Marshall shot himself dead at his hotel this morning as the result of an old and bitter feud with his beautiful and wealthy wife. The narfiM trfirfi married at Denver last February and wedding bells rang in the advent of expectations of a happy life, which proved only a dream. 'Marshall, it is said, was stationed on one of the United States men-of-war at Philadelphia, but his rank is not known in this city. Mr. Marshall was supposed to be bf the United States Navy, but the following dis patch from "Washington throws doubt upon the matter: "Inquiry at the "Navy Department to-day discloses the fact that there is not on the naval rolls, either as officer or sailor, the name of such a person as Edwin E. Mar shall, who killed himself in Chicago to-day as the result of a quarrel with his wife." DESERTED BY HIS WITE. Marshall's wife finally left him. It is said she made her way to California. The hus band started in hot pursuit After scouring several of the "Western States the beautiful wife was hunted down in Chicago. She quitted the Hotel Parker about three weeks ago, just a few minutes after her husbandarrived, in desperation. The wife concealed herself about this city, fearing her husband would murder her. Last Mon day she hai him neld 'n S100 bonds to keep the peace. She also commenced proceed ings against him for divorce and a share in his property. In this divorce suit, which, by- tho way, was filed only last week, the wife charged that her husband so abused her that she had to leave him, and that when he finally found her he tried to replevin her wedding presents. A pathetic feature of this litiga tion is that last night the wife sought a writ of ne exeat republica, fearing that he will leave the county before her, suit reaches a hearing. EVADED THE WRIT BY DEATH. The sequel shows that Marshal found a way to evade the writ "The man was in a terrible state," said E. P. Smith, of the Hotel Parker, this morning. "He came here some four weeks ago in search of his wife. She foiled him, taking to some hid ing place in the city. He wanted to get her back here, and for this purpose he left our hotel a few days ago, thinking she would return. "When she came in this morning, and he asked if she had not called, he was in a frenzy. He called for room 18 if it was occupied. This was the room his wife oc cupied when here. He was shown the room, and, finding her not in, he exclaimed: 'It is all over. I will give up the chase." In a few seconds a shot wa3 heard and he was found shot in the temple with a bullet from a revolver.
