of the FnotH.
WASIUNOTO.V , Juno 4. The navy department -
mont ; 1'Oceivoil Information tonight of the
peaceful surrender of the Chilian insurgent
steamer Itata at Iqulquo today. This inform
ation was contained in n dispatch from Act
ing Hear Admiral McCann , received by Sec
retary Tracy several hours after the regular
tlmo of closing of the department. Tbo dis
patch came in cipher and took about two
liqurs to translate , and oven then there wore
several Instance lu which its contents had
not , boon fully Interpreted. In effect the dis.-
patch stilted that the Hutu had arrived
at In.ulu.uo last night and was placed
nt the disposition of Admiral Mc-
Cnnu this morning. She had on
board , the dispatch says , fi.OOU rifles
and nmmunltlon tnkon from tbo Uobort and
Minnie in the port of San Diego , Hula. Sbo
had no other munitions of war than these be
longing to the snip and had transferred noth
ing to the Ksmorulua , with whom .sho com
municated olT Acapulco. After communicat
ing with tills insurgent cruiser she vvout
direct to Tocopllla.
Admiral McCann says also that the cruiser
Charleston arrived at Iqulquu today and the
Ponsacola was expected beloro'nightfall. .
The Itata will now bo sent back to San
Diego , probabl.v under cover of ono of the
cruisers of Urn admiral's soundron , as soon as
she can coal nnd prepare for the return trip.
She will bo delivered to the United
States Dllii-crs nt San Diego and
the proceedings against herfor the
violation of the neutrality laws will
bo resumed at the point whuro they
were intorrupod oy the departure of the
steamship , and the responsible parties will ,
if they appear , also bo called on to nnsvoi *
the additional charge of contempt af court in
running away whtlo under injunction.
Secretary Tracy gave to liu Associated
proas reporter tonight the chain of circum
stances that has toil to the peaceful surrt'ti-
dor to thu L'n I ted States of the ship. Ho
said that thu dcslro for a surrender came
from the leaders of the Insurgent party nt
Iquiiiuo and were made through Admiral
McCann. The offer was communicated to
the office at Washington nnd were in duo
time accepted by this government , without ,
however , implying any recognition on the
part of the Insurgents ns belligerents. ' | 'ho
proposition was put in the hands of thu
Charlestonwhich was at Acnpulco replenish
ing nor coal supply. As soon us the
otter was accepted n telegram authorizing
htm to cease tbo chase was aent to Cuplaln
Item ) of the Charleston , but the steamer
had ulroaoy sailed when the telegram reached
Acapulco , mid thn cantaln , unaware of the
turn affairs had tnkon , proceeded. on his
search for the escaped vessel. Thu tact of
the acceptance of thu oilers to surrender the
Itata on her arrival In Chilian waters wus
therefore communicated to Admiral McCann ,
who wus therefore prepared to receive the
Itata on her arrival. Seorotnrj Trucv said
that the Itata would bo suut up the coast to
Sim Diego to answer the charges against her
In court.

PaperH on tlio Question Lulil ncliiru
the Dominion PurHainunt.
OTTAWA , Out. . June 4. The llw t Install
ment of a paper dealing with the . Washing
ton reciprocity negotiations have boon laid
before the Dominion parliament. In bring
ing down the napor Sir John ThoraoJon explained -
plained that ho could not bring down every
thing , as ho has not rocolvod pjrmUsIou , but
ho expects to make the remaining documents
public within a few days.
The document prosnntod Includes the pro
test of the Canadian government against the
projected treaty of the United Stntos with
Newfoundland. The paper shows tt-.nt Sir
Charles Ttmpor. under instructions from Sir
John Macdonuld , entered objection to the
convention on the ground that it would bo
Injurious to Caiiadn nnd It would vloluto the
Impcrful policy of considering the Atlantic
fisheries as a whole. The result of
tbo nrotost was the postponement of
the Newfoundland treaty und the en
deavor to matte n" bargain lor
Canada. Mr. Blalnu's letters In this connec
tion ere not made public. The documents
also deal with the missions to Washington
last April.
Sir Julian Pauncofoto March SO Inquired
of Secretary Blalno when would bo a con
venient time for the Canadian delegates to
como to Washington. Mr. Ululno's reply is
not pivcn. A letter . by Mr. Blalno , daUsd
April 0 , llxud October W 03 the date for rj-
suming the postponed negotiations.
The most important communications are
the reports of Sir Charles Tapper of his llrat
interview with Mr. Blnlno. Ho called upon
Mr. Blnine In company with Sir Julian
Pauncofotc. In Sir Charles' description of
the interview occurs thn following passage :
"I told Mr. Blnlno that I wished to remove
the Idea , if he entertained it , which had been
promulgated in Canada nnd the United
States , thnt the present government
of the Dominion was not warmly
In favor of the most friendly relations with
tbo United States. In an article which I had
recently sent over my own simmturo to tbo
North American Il"viovv 1 had undertaken to
give conclusive evidence on this point , und
that I need further only refer him to the fact
that wtion Sir John Macdonalil , who was ono
of her majesty's high commissioners , sub
mitted to parliament for approval the treaty
which settled all the pending questions , lib
was fiercely denounced by the leader. * and
press of tbo liberal party for huvlnir basely
sacrificed the interests of Canada in bis en
deavors to promote friendly relations IMJ-
twcen the United States and Canada. Mr.
Dlulno desired to&ssuro mo that outside of
an individual difference of opinion tharo was
no interest taken , bv the members of congress -
gross of the Llil.tod States in the recent
Canndlan election..and that tbov hnd taken
no action or part to. inlluenco the result of the
election. "
"Continuing 'Ifaid that Canada was most
anxious to have , tii/j freest and most friendly
relations with thq United States. 1 said it
was dlfllcult to.seuwhy the treaty of 1851
should hnvo been abrogated , as the statis
tics of both countries proved that although
there was u great expansion of trade between
tbo United States' ' and Canada , more advan
tages accrued to' the United States than
to Canada under. the treaty. Mr. Blalno
said that the 'treaty was not abro
gated on a commercial ground , but in consequence
quence of a feeling : tnat Canada had sympa
thized with ttiasoilthnrn states in their con
flict. I ropliednttjnt it was difllcult to see
upon what ; bnslsahnf/bpin Ion could bo enter
tained. that iftviiaiadtnltttid that no loss than
forty thousand Canadians had fought in the
northern army to maintain the union of the
United States , while I did not suppose forty
had been found on the other side. Mr.
Blaine admitted that , but ho supposed that u
very largo . bounty hud bad a good deal of influence -
fluonco In the matter. I then said that ttiut
unhappy conflict had taken place previous to
thoconfodorationof Canada , but ! could speak
with some uccuracv of the province of Nova
Scotia , with which I wns then connected.
thnt the legislature of Novn Scotia had
passed a resolution deploring the war and
that ono of the sharpest international quo >
tions arose , as ho would remember , in con
nection with the Chesapeake Incident in the
harbor of Halifax , and that it was my duty
as premier of thu province to udviso the llcu-
tcnnnt governor , who wns also commander-
in-chief , as to what course the government of
Novn Scotia should pursue , and that the
president or the United States had sent un
autograph letter thanking him for the action
"
of tho" government of Nova Scotin
on thnt occasion. Ho had only
to repeat that Sir John Macdonald -
donald nnd his party had the strongest
dc.siro to promote a reciprocal treaty between
the two countries , nnd their hopes in that
direction were greatly strengthened by meas
ures whlch.Mr. Blaine had taken to promote
reciprocal treaty with other countries , and
that I could not sco whv bo could no' , with
great advantage to the United States as well
as Canada , extend to the north the sumo
policy he had pursued with the countries
south whoso trade was very much smaller
than that between the Dominion nnd the
United States. I said that the fnet that ho
had expressed his readiness to receive repre
sentations thnt Cumulii wished to make would
show that ho was quite open to consider that
question ,
'Some question then arose between Sir
Julian Pauncofoto and Mr. Blalno ns to the
Bond negotiations. Sir Julian explained that
Mr. Bond had no authority to negotiate in
any other wuy than through him nnd thnt
Mr. Bond's lust negotiations wore entirely
irroynlnr nnd without authority. Mr. Blaine
snld thnt it did not appear necessary to nogo-
tinto any treaty with Newfoundland , as that
colony hud oxpreasyd its readiness to give
the United States thu privilege * they enJoyed -
Joyed by their own action and that tliov pro
posed not only to give bait to United States
llsbcrmcn , but to refuse to give the same
privilege to Canada. I told Mr. Blalno
that the bait net In Newfoundland hud
received the assent of her majesty upon
the distinct pledge of Sir Ambrose Shea ,
then promiorof Newfoundland , thntCnnndiaii
vessels would not be effected t > y It. Then I
explained thnt the courts of Newfoundland
had declared that the action taken under thnt
net was not legal. I added that her majesty
had power to disallow any bill that might bo
passed upon thajj ' yjeut by the colony.
"Tho remnlnuer'of the report details how
arrangements w.qroutnade for n conference to
continue the coiMilbi-.iHon of these questions
between thu tnluKtor of justice und the min
ister of finance ' jhon Mr. Blalno could ro-
colve us. Monqfi } ' , the 5th , was decided
upon. " . , i
Following this , 14 a report by Sir Charles
Tapper of tils rorrcspondnnca afterwards
with Mr. Blaine , } > ; ho informed him that ho
( Blalno ) after caij ultuttonvlth President
Harrison mife'litjiiivu to change the date fixed
for the confcpmw and that ho would
llx n definite da ljilcr , Sir Charles said ho
received no nntlco $ f anv dolltiltu change of
tbo date , and Implyid that the previous ar
rangement Htoou ; . , 'Ho ( Sir John Thompson )
and Mr. Foster yfo/it / to Washington , und ar
riving there w s jn } formed by Sir . /uliiiii
Puimcafoto Unit , " , l\a \ had not been ablu to
catch him ( Tuppbri.by telegraph to inform
him that Mr. Bunuo , desired to i > ostpono the
conference. Tho'salno day ho received u uoto
from Mr. Blaluo udrUing him of
the president's desiru to mod
ify the date of the conference
and asking him iTupporj to dinner. Sir
Julian's telegram , which .Sir Charles did not
receive , informed Sir Charles that the presi
dent desired a postponement of the negotia
tions until October.
In concluding hU report Sir Charles says :
"I may add that after carefully thinking over
all that has occurred I consider this is peed
reason to hope that ndr arrangements innv
bo made with thu government of tlio United
States relating to thu important questions
contained in Lord Stanley's dispatch to Lord
Knutsford of December 13 , IS'JO. ' "

thrco days' so ion here tl U afternoon. The
next meeting wilt bo held in Aberdeen next
Juno. Congressman Uamble wuj among last
year's successful sbe.iip und wool r.iUuri.
He said at tbo mooting today : "From wliat
1 know of tbo soil and climate and conditions
of our state I am fully convinced that all
tlio best gr.idos of wool can tioro
bo produced. Xor does it Uopunu upon irri
gation. The sheep will live and t.hrivo in
dry weather , and they will do the same in
wet weather. Wo now have promise of an
other cyclone ot wet weather. I hope it will
Oe n long one , but this will not injure your
prospects , lor the soil so readily absorbs
moisture that no epidemic disease will
result Irom its abundance. I congratulate
you on the line prospects before you us sheep
breeders in South Dakota. Australian bliup-
herds no longer need to grow wool for our
consumption. All the surrounding condi
tions favor your success , and 1 bid you Goil
speed to this end , "
Mr. Heath of the Kansas Farmer , and
special agent of the bureau of nnlmal Indus
try , followed Mr , Gamble in highly interest
ing remarks on the general subject of sheep
rinsing and wool producing. Statistics show
that 'JOO.OOO shutip are owned in South Da
kota and the owners of over two-thirds of
these were present nt the convention.
Parties wcro also here from Iowa , Nebraska
and Kansas , anil they testify that the papers
pi-OMinted to this body were some of the very
best that they over heard. Some of these
witnesses have been in tlio slioep business

There will soon bo HIIIIIO radical Improve
ments made In tlio special delivery service of
the postolllce system. Postmaster ( Jonoral
Wauanmkiir Is onvwgod Just uow in ngitnting
the postmn.stcr.1 throughout tbo country on
this subject. Ho finds that In many of tlio
citlus of from fifteen thousand 'to forty
thousand Inhabitants , mm lu a few ot the
Inrgor cities , the spjclnl delivery system has
become nlmost n matter on pnpor only. The
decline of the special delivery system in
many of the cities i.s duo to lack of interest
taken in It uv thu pastnmstcr.s , as the law
upon the subject has not made It mandatory
for postmasters to popularl/o this seiyjcc. At
Boston the special delivery service has been
brbiight up to a high point of oxcellenco. On
the nvcrngo a letter is there delivered within
thirteen minutes after It Is received at the
postofllcc. In some of thocillos through the
central nnd western states the average time
for delivery of the letter bearing the spocinl
delivery stamp Is ever ono hour. The post
master general believes that while It Is not
possible to nuke tlio time for the special de
livery as brief as tnat nt Boston nt ovury
place , there i.s no possible excuse for the de
cline of this service to tbo low ebb Ho llmls
it In many of the large cities , and ho Is ask
ing the postmasters why they have permitted
tbo service to decline , and what they can
suggest in the way of improvement to 'build
the service up and make It more popular.

Under Commissioner Carter laud olllccrs ,
who have been in'the habit of making settle-
inonts of their accounts with thu interior de
partment ml libitum , will bo rocuiirod to com
ply with tbo Inw to make n full settlement
at least every ninety days , If not every thirty
dnvs , ns the rules of thu department require.
It ) ms been found Hint some of the registers
and receivers in the far west nnd northwest
have kept open or iincompleto accounts for
porlods sometimes extending from .six to
uino months , and there Imvo been some of
ficers who have made no ollleiul llniil slate-
menls more frequent than every year. A few
of these oltlcors who hnvo boon so lax in their
financial transactions with thu department
hnvo boon required to lay down their com
missions , notably one at North Ynicimn ,
Washington state , In the person of the son of
Senator Vance of North Carolina , who did
not seoui to regard the law and rnle.s of thu
department as being entitled to moro dofer-
encuthan his personal convenience.
