Behrlnc Sea CommlaalonWashington, Feb. 12. There is some
thing which is mysterious going on in
what it known as tbe settlement of tbeBehiino- - sea Question. It tbe scene oftbe negotiations were at a state capital,there would be very sensational chargesmade, and for that matter, perhaps, even
dignity of some officials' positionmay not save tnem irom preiiy severe
reflections before tbe matter is over.
There teems to be a very strong desire to
prevent a public expression on tbe find
ingt of the commission. There is noreason for this unless somebody is goingto be benefited. There are also a gnatmany charges made in different organsof tbe administration that it is tbeEnglish commissioners who are wastingtime and refusing to meet the Americancommissioners and get down to business,This is not trne. It is not tbe JSoglisnmen who have held back the investigaHon or who have asked for secrecy. TbeEnglish commissioners, oir Baden Powellana ur. uawson, nave Deen in tvasoing-to- n
ten days anxious to begin comparingnotes and ty consult with the Americancommissioners Messrs. Mendenhall andMerriam. Some mysterious influenceshave kept the tour men apart, and it wasnot until yesterday that tbey were al-
lowed to meet official y in what wascalled an "informal conference." Tbeconference was behind closed doors. Itis impossible to get tbe English commissionert to talk on the subject, but it isknown that they favor open sessions.Tbe state department, however, will notfor some reason agree to this step. TbeEnglishmen, while not complaining andhave not been bonnd to secrecy, feelkeenly tbe misrepresentations of theirintentions and disposition printed inadministration organs. Tbey have beenclaimed as those who desire delay foxputting off the conferences, wben as amatter of fact tbey have tried tbeir utmost, but in vain, to meet tbe Americancommissioners to begin work. With thesealing season already begun there isgreat need of immediate action, and noneed for secrecy. ' Outsiders who knowwhat is going on, and bave the proservation of the seal fisheries at heart, areloudest in their demands for open doorsand constant conferences until tbe matteris settled.
. An Indian Trajcedy.North Yaxxka, Wash., Feb. 13. The
Oregonian correspondent today receivedtbe news from Fort Slmcoe, tbe headquarters of the Yakima Iadian agency, ofa tragedy which occurred there Monday.Frank Abraham, a youug Indian, hadbeen found guilty of adultery by the Indian court, and sentenced to pay a fine of$30. This aroused tbe blood of theyoung buck, and, drawing a huge knife.in court, be cursed both judge and sheriff.and swore tbat be would neither pay thefine nor be taken alive. Brandishing bisknife, be fought bit way out of the court-room, mounted bis cay use, and in companv with another Indian charged withthe same crime, took flight towards themountains. Tbe court ordered the reservation sheriff. Franklin P. Olney, also anIndian, to follow and arrest Abraham.Olney came up with the fugitive a halfmile away, as be was in tbe act of dismounting, and ordered him to surrender.At this, Abraham picked up a club, andgrasping tbe reins of tbe sheriffs horse,was about to brain tbe officer, wben tbelatter pulled bis revolver and tired. Thebullet took effect in Abraham's leftbreast and passed diagonally through bisbody, producing deatb soon afterward.Tbe dead Indian's friends are in a stateof great excitement, and threaten to annihilate both judge and sheriff. Olney isnow in biding, tearing (or bis life.
The Cause of the Wreck.Astoria, Feb. 13. Before British
Vice-Cons- ul Cherry this afternoon appeared the three sailors, survivors of tbewreck of tbe Ferndale near Gray's HarborJanuary 18, who made tbe followingstatement: The vessel sighted tbe CapeHancock light at tbe mouth of tbeColumbia River at 4 A. x. tbe 15tb ofJanuary. She stood off shore and kepton the starboard tack till tbe 26tb, againsighting land and standing off. Tbe 27ththe captain tried to take an observation,but tbe weather was too thick. At 2 a.v., the 29th, it was blowing a southwest,gale.1- - Tbe vessel was beadiog southeast,wben at 3 o'clock the struck,' tbe captainbeing below. An unsuccessful attemptwas uiauo w ware me nuip auu iucu

Free Colnase.Washington, Feb, 12. The silver
men.bave some eight or ten peiititions incirculation on the Democratic side of tbeboute urging tbat tbe silver bill be made
special continuing order, and said tbeyhad early today selected about 100 asigners. There are doubts entertained as ato tbe expediency or tbe pennon movement, but tbe silver men mostly believe a
may advance the consideration of thebill, and are doing wbat tbey can to bringthe matter to an issue early a the session.Tbe anb-ailv- er men are urging delay.and working to tbat end in tbe hope thattbere may be developments which willaid tbeir cause and enable them to findsome way out of tbe difficulty. Tbe free--coinage men are in favor of tpeedy action,and say tbat on political grounds alone,aside from monetary principles, thesooner tbe issue is met tbe better. Therules committee has not yet taken up tbesubject. Tbe people's party in tbehouse bare joined with tbe tree-coina- ge
people in demanding prompt considera-tion of tbe Bland bill.

A Hew Wool Bill. .
Washington, Feb. 13. The Demo
cratic members of the ways and means
committee held another prolonged con-
ference on tbe Springer wool bill today.Tbe result was an agreement on tbe rates
of duty to be imposed on the manufactures of wool, The Democratic membershave always agreed on the propositiontbat wool should be admitted free of duty,but bave differed to some extent as to therates which should be imposed uponmanufactured wool. Tbe result of tbeconference was favorable to the low tariffmembers of tbe committee, reducing allduties below 40 percent, under the present law, as well as those above 40 percent. 1 be agreement reached has yet tobe voted on as a whole, tbe action todaybeing on each paragraph ot the wool andwoolen schedules, separately. The greatest rate ot duty provided for is 45 percent, on ready made clothing, dolmans,jackbts, ulsters and wearing apparel, onwhich, under tbe present law, 60 percent, duty it Imposed. These are articlesleft above 40 per cent., which was tbeuniform rate proposed by tbe Mills billon woolen manufactures of all kinds.Tbe greatest redaction was made fromtbe 40 per cent, duty, under tbe Millshill, on. cheap blankets, woolen hats andflannels for underwear.- - This was cutdown to 25 per cent. The agreement byparagraphs is as follows:
"On woolen and worsted yarns 35 percent.; tbe rate under the McKioley law is35 and. 40 per cent, on woolen or worstedcloths. Shawls, knit fabric and allfabrics made on knitting machines orframes, and all manufactures of everydescription made wholly or in part ofwool, or worsted, not specially providedfor, 40 per cent., tbe present rates being40 and 50 per cent., according to tbevslue. On blankets, hats, wool and flannels for underwear, composed wbolly orin part of wool, valued at not more thanbO cents per pound, 25 per cent., againsta present duty under tbe McKinley lawof 50 per cent, ad valorem, valued atmore than 30 cents per pound, and notmore than 50 cents, 80 per cent, ad valorem, against a present rate of 85 percent., valued at more tban 50 cents perpound, 35 per ceut.. ad valorem.- - Onwomen's and children's dressgoods, coatings, buntings and goods of similardescription, 35 per cent, against a dutyunder tbe McKinley bill of 50 per centClothing ready made and articles of wearing apparel ot every description, cloaks.dolmans, jackets, and other outside garments for ladies and children, 45 percent, ad valorem, against tbe McKinleyrate of 60 percent. On webbings, goring,suspender braces, beltings, bindings,braids, gallons, fringes, gimps, cords,cords and tassels, dress trimmings, lacesand embroideries, buttons, head nets 40per cent, ad valorem, against tbe presentrate of 60 per cent. On carpets of alldescriptions, druggets, carpetings, mats,rugs, screens, covers, art squares andother portions of carpets, 30 per cent., asagainst tbe present rate of 40 per cent,on all except carpets and carpetings, notspecially provided for, which is placed at50 per cent, under tbe McKinley law.
in addition tbere is no per pound norper square yard duties imposed, thesebeing wbat are known as compensatoryduties, given because of the duty on wool,wbicb it is proposed now to admit free.The only section of the Springer bill notconsidered is tbat relating to shoddies.The conference will meet again Mondayto prefect tbe bill and reach an agree-ment on it as a whole. Messrs. Sbivelyand W tilting were not present
The Cascade Locks.Washington, Feb. 14. The senate
committee on commerce at tbe last meeting commenced the consideration of Senator Gibson's bill for the improvement oftbe Mississippi River, and SenatorDolph's bill for the improvement of tbeColumbia. Tbe hearing was concludedat a special meeting yesterday. SenatorDolph was authorized to report favorablyhis bill appropriating $1,750,000 for tbecompleting of tbe canal and locks at thecascades of tbe Columbia, with a provisotbat no more tban one-thir- d of the totalappropriation should be expended in anyone year. Tbe provision ot bis dm tortbe construction of a boat railway wasstricken out, because a bill for tbat purpose has already been reported from tbecommittee on transportation routes to tbeseaboard, and is now on tbe senate calen-dar, fbe sections making appropriationsior the mouth of tbe Columbia and tbeLower Willamette and Columbia werealso eliminated, as tbe committee believed tbat adequate appropriations couldbe provided for those improvements inthe river and harbor bill. Senator Dolphwas instructed to make a written report,which be is preparing and will endeavorto submit to tbe senate tomorrow, ihesenator says tbe bill making an appropriation for tbe Mississippi may meetwith favorable action in the bouse, on account of the great number of persons interested, but be greatly fears be will notbe able to secure favorable considerationthere for bis bill for the completion of tbeCascade locks. He will make an effortand hopes to secure in tbe nycr andbarbor bill the provision for the completion of the Cascade locks. He bad theassurance wben the last river and barborbill passed that be should receive at leastone Colombia mver improvement, asimilar provision to tbat given to Galves-ton and Sault Ste. Marie, and no doubtthe senate will accord him that favor.Tbe only danger is that tbe house conference will not agree to it. Senator Dolphcalled General Casey, chief of engineers,before tbe committee, who explained tbepresent condition of all tbe works for tbe ofColumbia River, and said that, he bad not
particle of doubt of tbe practicability ofboat railway. Tbe tact tbat the city of
Portland is expending $500,000 to securedeeper channel to tbe sea, and that tbe
state bat built a portage road .at the cas-cades, elicited much favorable commentfrom tbe committee members.

The Real Cause of the Trouble.Santa Fe. N. M., Feb. 12. The real
cause of the trouble between tbe NavajoIndians and the . cattlemen in westernNew Mexico is attributed to the niggardly manner in which tbe governmenthas ' treated this tribe, in not providingthem witn sufficient food and clothing.Tbe Indians bave long been allowed torove off. tbeir reservations, and are accustomed to killing range beef for foodwherever night may overtake them. Atmany points along the border ot Arizonaalso are country stores wbere liquor itsold to tbe Indians as readily as to tbewhites, and the Indians engaged inWednesday's row are said to bave beenintoxicated. Cattlemen are arming them-selves and are determined to drive theIndians back to tbeir re ervation, buttbe presence of United States troops fromFort Wiogate will prevent anything iatbe nature of an outbreak.
