BOLD YANKEE TARS WHO THRASHED THE MALAY PIRATES OF QUALLAH BATTOO. The War Frigate t’otonine, With n Fighting Crew of Marines, I pheld the Dignity of Our Flag In the Faroff FaelAe Inlands. Hand to Hand Hat ties With Firutes, [Copyright. ls!»4, by American Press Association. Book rights reserved.) () WONDER that tho American sailor of the first thinl of this century rolled about his native decks a n d along the wharves a n d streets of the seaports tho world Y over wearing a V suticy,challenging scowl on his face und a chip thrust out conspicuously on each shoulder. Ever si nee he could remember the navy of the young republic had held its oxvn against the strong 'st powers of the time—Great Britain and France—and against tho buccaneers of the Mediterranean, if not always coming off first Isist in battle yet redeeming every jietty defeat by a stunning victory. It wasn’t In boast of tho finest ships nor of the greatest guns that tho Yankee tar became bumptious, for Unde Sam hud neither. It was the sand and sap of the virgin man, the natural yearning to test one's mettle in a contest for place. Paul Jones and Perry Lawrence and Hull, Bainbridgo undStexvnrt in their day and generation had been first, and there must 1)0 no backward step for their successors. To keep in practice all that was needed wan a chance; the disposition was never wanting, and so when the warlike ami piratical Malays outraged our (lag in 11-31 swift and terrible punishment followed at the hands of a si agio fighting crew of sailors. F-omo natives of (Juallali Hat too, on the western const of the island of Sumatra, treacherously attacked I ho crew of the merchantman Friendship, intending to capture the ship and her treasure. Tho deed was done while the vessel lay in the harbor on a trailing visit, presumably under protection of the authorities of the island or province. On the morning of Feb. 7 the ship rode at anchor a few hundred yards from the town, and the captain, with four seamen, went ashore to superintend the weighing of a cargo of pepper, xvliich was carried from the depot to tho vessel in small boats roxved by natives. The llrst boat to leave the depot, which xvns located on a river near the popper plantations above (Juallah Bat too, stopped on its xvny doxvn stream and stealthily exchanged its crew of oarsmen for double tlienumlierof armed men, then proceeded to the anchorage ground of llio Friendship and onmmoiiecd unloading lier cargo. The natives not rcquirix! in unloading the boat climbed aboard the ship, and although ordered by the mate in command to return to their own deck they lingered nbont the docks of tho Friendship. Watching a chance, oneof them plunged his sciiniti r through the body of the mate while his back was turned, and several others attacked the sailors in like manner. Four of tho latter escaped, and jumping into tho water swam to a safe distance and reached land undisturbed by tho Malays. Instantly the pirates on the deck of the Friendship put up signals, and several boatloads of armed men pushed off front shore. Moauxvhile the Americans at the depot had watched tho goings on, [xtwerless to prevent them, but nevertheless fully warned and put on their guard. The cup tain and his four companions stepped into a bout and shoved her off just ns n party of natives, drunken with delight over tho news signaled by their confederates on the Friendship, were rushing to attack them. A Malay Rajah from a neighboring province, I*o Adam, sprang after the boat, declaring that ho would go with tho Americans, adding, ’Tf they kill you, they must kill me first, captain." The allegiance of Po Adam probably saved thocaptnin. His cutlass was tiie only weapon in the boat, which was intercepted by hostile Malays at tho mouth of the river. With the cutlass in tho hands of a stalwart Yankee sailor, Who brandished it fiercely over tho prow ns the little craft dashed through, the assailants were kept at bay until the party was well to sen. Then the captain, guided by Po Adam, steered for a harbor 20 miles south, where other American vessels lay, picking upon tho way the four sailors who had leaped from the deck of the Friendship at tho time of tho attack. Next day three ships returned to Qual lnh Hnttoo and demanded from the chief Rajuli the release of the Friendship. His reply iieiug tho characteristic IsMist, ‘ If you want her, come and take her,’’the vessels ranged up and opened fire. After a short liombanbnent tho Americans manned their boats und pulled toward tho ship, intending to board her. But the Malay crew didn't relish an open fight, even with thcodds in their favor. They jumpixl into tlie water and made for shore, but when the Americans got on Imard of their vessel they found lx r stripped of all valuables, Including a treasure in specie of $12,000. When thf pews of the piracy reached Washington, the frigate J’olomao, 44 guns, lay in New York hartiur under orders to join the Pacific) stiiliiui-on by n voyage via England. The orders were

fit out an army. Among other barbarous practices tlx-y adhered to cannibalism. Commodore Downes resolved to gix-cthe Malays no warning of his purpose. Keentered the Indian ocean with the frigate disguised as a merchantman, and anchor ing off the coast of Sumatra sent his officers in citizen's dn-ss to reoonuoiter the short'. The Malays who saw this demonstration mntlc signs of hostility, and the Yankee captain concluded that verbal demands for satisfaction would tut useless. A sudden and unheralded night attack, with the capture of some hostages to bring the hurliarinns to their senses, sei'im-d to him the only feasible plan for carrying out the orders of his chieftain, General Andrew Jackson, himself an Impetuous j fighter, who in such cases invariably put the bloxx- before the word. The very night of arrival on the roast was selected for attack. The marines, in three divisions, look their places in bouts, and in tho darkness were quietly rowed toward the ticnch. The expedition was led by Lieutenant Irvine Bhubrlck, who had served in the President in 1815 as well iia in tiie xvttr against the Algerian pirates and the freebooters of the Spanish main. On landing the men took up their march aliiug the licuch, and daylight disclosed them, with a cannon trailing behind, while their buais lay in waiting just out-

side the surf.

In spite of precaution on tho part of the Americans, the Malays evidently expected an attack, for tbeir scouts in numbers haunted the jungle lying along the water’s edge. Three forts could be seen on the land lionlcrs of tho town, where they limi boon built for protection against neighboring tribes, and tho first division of marlin*, led by Lieutenant H. K. Huff, not hutting for a moment’s parley, marched to surround the first, one in tiie pathway. The work consisted of a strong citadel armed xvitli cannon, surrounded by a stockade, and on the approach of the Americans the Malays o|H‘iie<l fire xvith all arms. Breaking through the gate of the stockade, which

Harmony and Hard Work FssentlalAU the members of tho next congress are to be elected on Nov. 6. Legislatures are to be chosen in August, Soptemlier and November, which will have ♦he election of 8!1 United States senators. If either house becomes Republican, further bad legislation cau be blocked. In the event of a strong Republican verdict it is probable that even the present congress will not succeei^n passing anything very damaging during the short session that will remain for it There is a feeling that the Republicans are going to sweep the country this year, and they will if they try. Hut here ate a few figures which show that it will not do to be too confident There are 356 members in tho present house, of whom only 128 are Republicans. It will bo seen that there is a great deal to overcome. The Democrats expect to hold nearly or quite all of their 120 from tho south. If they hold them all, they will need to get only 50 more from 28 northern states to hold a majority. The Republicans must carry three to one of the northern districts in order to

gain control.

But as a large number of Democrats in tho present house received only small pluralities and us public opinion has undergone a revolution it is believed that every close district xvill go Republican this year if proper attention is given to it. A Democratic loss throughout the north proportioned to that sustained in

Timbers from the palisade surrounding it wort! torn out to servo as bridges over the moat, and across these the sailors rushed, in spite of tho gulling lire from the walls of tho fort. The Malays only waited to see their front ranks put

A second storming party, under Lieutenant Kdson, carried the next fort in tho chain, where the natives fought bravely until it came to a hand to hand struggle on the walls. Then they ran away, expecting no quarter. Tho third fort lieing concealed in the jungle, tho party sent against it failed to discover it and marched through tho town to the southern edge, along the beach, where Lieutenant Shu-

tho natives bravely defended, Lieutenant g pe C i a i elections in New York and Ohio ,, w ’ ‘ 1 ‘ “ ’ districts this year to fill vacancies will

make the next house strongly Republican. Besides wo expect some gains in

the south.

The Populists, who have 14 members of the present house, expect to have nt least 40 in the next. This calculation, however, is all in the air. Populism is on the wane in the country districts since tho rifilrotld strike, and our advices from Kansas, Nebraska and flit' Dakotas are that the Republicans are likely to gain two-thirds of all that tho Populists lose. In tho large cities, however, the Populists now scorn likely to win tho striking labor vote from the Democrats. This may be contemplated with serenity, because the change will only lie to another alias. It is only when they win votes from the Republicans that the country is endangered. Should they have 40 members, mostly won from the Republicans, they would have the balance of power in the next house, ami in ease the presidential election should be thrown into the house tho situation would be at least disquieting. Those senators whose terms expire with the present congress are as follows: Morgan of Alabama, I).; Berry of Arkansas, D.; Wolcott of Colorado, R.; Higgins of Delaware, If.; Colquitt of Georgia, D.; Shoup of Idaho, R.; Cullom of Illinois, R.; Gear of Iowa, R.; Martin of Kansas, D.; Lindsay of Kentucky, D.; Caffery of Louisiana, D.; Frye of Maine, R.; Hoar of Massachusetts, R.; McMillan of Michigan, R.; Washburn of Minnesota, R.; Walthall of Mississippi, D.; Power of Montana, R.; vacancy to be filled; Mauderson of Nebraska, R.; Chandler of New Hampshire, R.; McPherson of New Jersey, D.; Ransom of North Carolina, D.; Dolpli of Oregon, R.; Dixon of Rhode Island, R.; Butler of South Carolina, D.; Pettigrew of South Dakota, R.; Harris of Tennessee, D.; Coke of Texas, D.; Hunton of Virginia, D.; vacancy in Washington; Camden of West Virginia, D.; Carey of Wyoming, R.; vacancy to be

Tho Potomac sailed on her mission under command of Commodore John Downes, with a complement of sailors and marines numbering 500 Mien. No national vessel from the United Slates had before visited tho island, and it was impossible to procure trustworthy Information respecting the people and their strength or even charts showing the coasts of that country. Tho harbor and town lie ojxui to tho sea, and the shores are lined with dangerous shoals. The pinple, to tho number of several thousand, constitute an independent community, owing allegiance to no one, except to their chieftains of

1 he obvious lesson of the foregoing facts for Republicans to observe is that wo must work to win. It is important to look after all the close districts, south as well as north. It is a mistake to treat tho south or even our large cities as foreign countries or hopeless iiolds. Every candidate who will not declare for adequate and impartial protection should bo opposed, nnil if he is opposed vigorously ♦here will be a good many surprises. Another important lesson of tho hour iJ harmony. Men who are Republicans in the main should bo wholly so this year. It wan third partyisui and side issues which gave the country to the Democracy in 1892, and what a fearful prico tho people have paid for it! Republicans will never join any other party so long as the country or tho prosperity of the people is in danger. Therefore tlui few who have undertaken to

Spread of the KiiHMiau Thistle. The division of botany in tho United States department of agriculture reports the appearance of the Russian thistle in various new localities. Bulletin No. 15 of that division contains colored maps showing tho territory in which it had been found to tho close of 1893. It has been sinco 1893 found in Hammond, Lakeconuty, lud.; Cannon Falls, Goodhue county, Minn.; Marshall, Lyon county, Minn.; Northwestern, Jefferson county, Neb.; Blue Hill, Webster county, Neb : Stockville, Frontier county, Neb.: Parks, Dundy county, Neb.; La Salle, Weld county, Colo.; Nampa, Ada county. Ida, and Manitoba, Canada. In almost all those localities it has appeared only along tho line of railroads, and with t lie exception of Nampa, Ida., is now officially reported for the first

time.

The occurrence of tho Russian thistle in Idaho is regarded as a very serious matter. Tho region already infested by tho Russian thistle lies in tho plains east of tho Rocky mountains mid is therefore separated by (his natural barrier from the wheat raising areas of Idaho, Washington, Oregon, Nevada and Utah. The only way in which it can enter this area is by introduction in impure seed mid by transportation, especially along railroads. Every endeavor should bo used by the farmers and civil authorities of this region to exterminate it along the railroads and to use t.nly the cleanest and best seed wheat obtainable. If the Russian thistle once infests this region, its next step will bo i to cross the Sierra Nevada into the wheat areas of central California A copy of bulletin No. 15, containing directions for eradicating this pest, will be forwarded to any applicant, and a j specimen of any plant supposed to bo the Russian thistle will be positively identified upon receipt by the department of agriculture. Reports agree that drought and hot winds have seriously injured if not virtually ruined tho corn crop of Nebraska, Kansas and oilier western states. In Nebraska and Kansas tho corn crop is estimated at from one-quarter to one-third. Still Out at Uoatunu Boston, Sept. 22.—The shops of all the clothing contrac tors in tho city are closed and not one of the strikers is at work.

Tho action had lasted nonrly three hours, and as tho rising surf threatened to endanger the boats Lieutenant Shubrick re-endiarked his conimniid and returned to the Potomac, bearing the bodies of two marines killed and two officers and nine men wounded. Tho Malays lost 150 killed, for the Americans took no prisoners. The morning after the battle Commodore Downes determined to shoxv the Quallah Bitttooans that the Americans cmiM boast of "big guns" os.well as tho Dutch and Spanish, who had subjugated the pirnticnl Malays in former times. Bringing tho Potomac to anchor broadside to the town ho opened fire with 82 pound shot upon a fort opposite, on tho other side of the river.
