she discharged her cargo.
On Oct. 3 a Spanish officer with several soldiers boarded the brig and made a thorough search for a large quantity of arms which the Spanish officials had bt'en informed wen; on board the vessel, The brig was ransacked from stem to
stern, but no arms were found.
The Spanish officer went so far as to demand that Captain Miller remove from below all his unchorchains. This the captain refused to do and the officers were reluctantly forced to leave the vessel. The United States consul was * on board at the time, but could do nothing. Captain Miller will report the facts of the search of his vessel to the proper authorities at Washington. There was on board the Harriet G a young Cuban passenger named Gustava Torre, who said that he was so persecuted by the Spanish authorities that he was compelled to leave the island and
come to the United States.

VIEW OF AN INDIANA MAN.
Mnch Significance Attached to the Meeting of Mr. Micheuer and Other Politicians lu Indianapolis—Says the exPresident's Name Will Go liefore the Next Convention Strongly Backed. New York, Nov. 11.—In a conununi1 cation to The Herald written by F. T. Roots, a prominent Indiana politician, an intimate friend of Benjamin Harrison and a delegate to the two national conventions which nominated him, defines his understanding of the attitude of the ex-president’s friends with regard to a renomination in 189*3. Mr. Hoots’
letter says:
“When away from my home in Indi-

Massacres Ordered From the Sultan’s Palace at Constantinople. London, Nov. 11.—A dispatch from Constantinople says that us proof that the Armenian massacres are ordered from the Yildi/, Kiosk not necessarily with the snltau’s knowledge, but by in- i i tluential men of the Palace party, anxious to discredit the administration of Kiamil Pasha, recently grand vizier, the instance of Diarbekir is worth citing. M. Cambon, the French ambassador, after learning of the two days’ rioting 1 at Diarbekir, threatened to hold Alexandretta with the French squadron until the resignation of the gvvornor had been j brought abont. Two hours after this threat reached the Yildiz Kiosk DiorbeI kir was tranquil. The correspondent | says this is an eloquent fact explaining the situation, and that many similar instances point the same way. The correspondent considers the lives of Christians endangered throughout all the Asiatic provinces, but it is not believed that they are in any especial danger at Constantinople, because the members of the palace clique are not likely to initiate any anti-Christian movements, and the members of the Mohammedan constitutional party advocate the adoption of a policy giving Christians a share in the govern- 1 ment. The naturul tendency, in consequence, is the coalition of the Mohammedan constitutional party with the Armenians and, in fact, there are signs indicating that such a coalition would be likely to occur under circumstances
in any degree favorable.
