The Hasty Yonnff War Lord Chnnrs IIU Mind Respiting; th nombtrdmeBt of th muck Rerruullo- Orders for the Oeflna to Pull Are Recalled. Washington, Dec. 1. The Oerman government hns made a complete back down In the IlRltlnn Incident, without doubt the result of the Interference of the United States. Germany'" pro gramme wan to send a warship to the black republic to make a demonstration of force and to compel redress for the aliened Indignities suffered by Herr Emll Luednrs, a Oerman subject. Instead of carrying out this plan the German foreign office has recalled the order for the sailing of the warship Ooflon and has made explanations to the United Stutes embassador, Andrew D. White, which have satisfied this government that the Oerman war lord's Intentions now are strictly peaceful. When It was first announced that Germany intended to make a naval dis play at Port au Prince, the capital of Haiti, the Herlln papers were full of war talk. The affair was called to the attention of Secretary Sherman, who, after discussing the subject with Presi dent MrKlnley, took prompt action. A message was sent to F.mbassador White instructing him to watch the progress of the Haitian incident and to Intimate, diplomatically, to Germany that any overt act on Haiti would be considered by the ftovernment of the United States a violation of the prin ciples of the Monroe doctrine. Would Not Permit Oppression. It was stated that the United States would not permit Germany to oppress or harass Haiti in any manner other than In conformity with International law and strictly in accordance with the in significant character of Germany's claims against the black republic. When this became known In Berlin, the newspapers were violent In their declarations that there must be "no Interference on the part of the United States government In the affairs of Ger many." One paper said that It had It from a trustworthy source that Germany would not "brook any Interference by the United States In the Haitian affair. But all thlB was mere talk and by no means reflected the actual Intentions of Germany. Embassador-White was yes- EMBASSADOR WHITE, terday received by Baron von Bulow, the minister for foreign affairs. Mr. White informed the baron that the United States cruiser Marblehead had been ordered to southern waters. He alBo Intimated In no uncertain manner that the state department desired to know Just what Germany Intended to do. Baron von Bulow hastened to assure the embassador that Oermany sad re called the order for the sailing of the warship to Haiti and that her only plan now was to collect a reasonable In demnity from Haiti because of the treat ment received by Herr Lueders. This was perfectly satisfactory to Mr. White, who at once cabled the result of his mission to Secretary Sherman. Morblehead to Hurry Reports that came to the state de partment late yesterday afternoon from Haiti were to the effect that considera ble excitement prevailed there and that the situation was grave. For this rea son it was determined to hasten the departure of the Marblehead, and the naval officials were communicated with to this end. The Impression appeared to prevail In Port au Prince that a German warship was rapidly approaching the place. Of course It Is said now that the Marble- head goes solely for the 'purpose of pro tecting American Interests that might be threatened by the outbreak of dis order In Haiti. In addition to this, It Is the opinion of the administration that the time Is now ripe for a renewal of the practice of having the United States navy rep resented in the waters u the gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean sea. For several years, save an occasional cruiser sent T.lth all haste on her way to or from the south Atlantic station, not a vessel of the navy hus gone be yond the southern waters of Florida, for the reason that the presence of United States war vessels In the neigh borhood of the Spanish Antilles might have served to create an erroneous im pression as to the attitude of the Unit ed States toward the Cuban Insurgents and have tended to complicate the re latlons between the United States and Spain. Now, however, with the Improvement in the conditions in Cuba and the con tlnued existence of good relations be tween the two governments, the navy department will let some of the small er vessels of the navy go into West In dia waters. The Marblehead will make her head quarters at Port au Prince, on the west coast of Hultt, and will be charged with the protection of American In terests generally in thut section of the West Indies.

PoBtofflee In spectors Gorman and Owlngs made an arrest last night which they believe will lead to the unearthing of a gang of mall robbers. John C. Hutchinson, who has been a letter carrier In the Pittsburg office since 1889, was detected In the act of taking a letter containing $12 from the street box at Smlthfleld and Diamond streets. He was allowed to go to the ofllce, one block distant, with his trip and was arrested when leaving the of fice a short time later. The letter and money were found on his person. The decoy letter had been sealed with seal ing wax before being deposited In the box. When taken from Hutchinson the seal was apparent 'Intact, yet the money was In his hand tightly rolled Into a wad. Hutchinson broke down and eon'essed his guilt. He Implicated no accom plices, but the officers feel certain that there are others who have been working with Hutchinson in a systematic rifling of letters, and more arrests are ex pected. aflhaons Slayer Eaoapoa, Whitehall, N.

The first annu al report of Secretary of the Navy Long is notable for the apparent halt recommended In naval construction. The policy of his predecessor was to urge the material development of the fleet much on the lines laid down by the various boards which have dealt with this vital subject, and congrest has usually been called upon to excise rather than to Increase the number ot vessels set down as necessary for th pressing demands of the country. The publio mind haa become so accustomed to this progressive development that the modesty of Mr. Long s recommen datioii of only one battleship will com mucn in ine nature ot a surprise.

Grew! ftaarolty of rood fa the Tipper Yukon Country A Btamperle From the Gold District Metropolis An Interview With Thomas Magto, Sr. Seattle, Wash.,. Nov. 80.-.The steam er City of Seattle has Just arrived at this port with 35 gold seekers direct from Dawson City. They were divided Into two parties, the last one of which left Dawson Oct, 16. Among those In the party were Thomas Magee, Sr., Thomas Magee, Jr., of Son Francisco; Swift Water Bill Oales, Joe Boyle, Wil liam Huskins, F. Eckert. F. Robertson, H. Raymond, Bert Nason, John W. Brauer, W. H. Chambers, E. W. Pond, E. A. J. Gillespie, Thomas Wilson, P. MeGraw, Jack Dalton and Wllllani Leak. They came down over the Dal ton trail. They are reported to have between them about $(10,000 In dust and nuggets. All tell stories of a food, shortage In Dawson that Is almost a famine. The lost person to leave Dawson was Jack Dalton. When Dalton left, the steamer Bella had reached there loaded light. It Is said that the Bella's cargo consisted of whisky and billiard bnllB. She brought no provisions. The Canadian government mounted police chartered the Bella and gave all who wished a free passage to the Yukon. The Bella Is reported to have left about Oct. 12, with 200 men. According to the statements made by members of the Dalton party, there Is liable to be trouble of the most serious kind this winter In Dawson, Billy Leak told one of the men In the party ahead of him whom ho met at Dyea that all the people talk about at Dawson Is the food famine. Men were gathering in groups and cursing with might and main the newcomers that were con stantly arriving In the Klondike loaded with scarcely any provisions. The mounted police were offering free trans portation to the grub placers farther down the Yukon to Fort Yukon, but to the countless hundreds who hnd la bored hard all through the summer ac cumulating a grubstake, the prospect wan uninviting to say the least. The men figured that It would take all their earnings in gold to pay their living expenses at Fort Yukon during the winter, and that in the spring they would not even have enough left to pay passage money back to Dawson, to say nothing of purchasing enough food to subsist until they could got started again. To these poor fellows the offer of the mounted police was no better than the prospect at Dawson of being compelled to live on half rations until the supply boats could reach the dig gings In the spring. Statement of Thomas Magee, Sr. Thomas Magee, Sr., the well known capitalist of San Francisco, In an In terview said: "The excitement over the failure of the steamers to bring food up to Daw son continued when the Dalton party left. The police took charge for two days of tho stores and warehouses of the Northwestern and Alaska Commcr clal company as a precaution only. Flour was selling at 12 a pound and no sales of less than B0 pounds were made. No plans have yet been formulated to prevent the starvation of those who are short of provisions. Those well sup plied have not much sympathy with thoB who are short, because of the fact that the majority of these latter went In with little food, although abundantly warned at Lake Bennett In advance. It had not been discovered up to Oct. H who shot the two men In Dawson who were caught stealing food. One was found dead; the other, fatally wounded, died at the Catholic hospital. It Is believed that a secret organization exists for the purpose of shooting down thieves. The organization of hunting parties for the winter to hunt moose was talked of and will be earned out. "Dysentery and accompanying fea tures were general at Dawson last sum mer, caused by the miasma swamps on which the town Is built, poor drainage and sewerage. The sickness will be worse next summer. The river was bad, hut there Is one spring of water at the Catholic hospital. Nothing was talked but the grub question. The so lution probably will be a public com mittee to gather up voluntary or en forced contributions, the food thus gathered to be dispensed and paid for by work or cash by those to whom It Is given. The Yukon river practically closed about Sept. 30 and again about Oct. 25, but the Ice ran out again and left the river free so that the parties who had taken chances of being left out In the wilderness, most of them short of provisions, too, probably got to Dawson, or near it. ThlB opening of the river twice was a phenomenon never known to occur before. There was no new mining excitement. With a per sistence heretofore unexplained many parties from Dawson as well as new comers went up the Stewart river. Nothing whatever except good claims have as yet been discovered there. The belief, however, la that rich discoveries will be made there. Jack Dalton and Mr. Maloney, a lawyer of Juneau, have purchased of Hugh Ferguson and Alex ander McDonald, Skookum claims Nob. 1 and I for $S2,600. It Is reported that large advance has been offered to the buyers. Skookum claims are looking up, because some of them have yielded In Initial work as large returns as any found elsewhere." 1-lsxle de Kalb'a Statement. Norilstown, Pa., Nov. SO.
