BRAVERY OF AN AMERICAN CAPTAIN , Ho Would Not Allow Piisioncor.i ( o He Taken from ) | | H Vessel nutl lc- llvcrcel Over to Prolmlilo Murder. 1WI bit Hie't } \ tern < \ of litleilVrm. / . SAN JOSH IIP. GuirnMu.v , Aug. 13. The Incident which occurred nt the port of Ln Llbertnd , In the republic of Salvador , ton days ape , bore some resemblance to the Bar- rundia affair , which happened on the steamer Acnpulco In San Joto do Guatemala during Iho late war between Salvador mid Guate mala. Ono of tlio parties concerned In this case , however , w.u an American oltl/.an , nnd the result might have boon the snmo ut In the Barrundta affair bad It not boon for the prompt and decUivo notion of the captain of an American slcamshlii. The Pacific Mall Steamship company's steamer City of Panama , which runs between Panama nnd Acapulco , Mox. , stopped at Coronto , Nicaraugua , August 5 , on her regu lar northbound trio , nnd among the passen gers whom she teen on i hero were P.itrick Brcnnnn , mi American citizen residing In Salvador , nnd four native Salvadoreans , nil former ofllcers of that government. These men had incurro.l the dlspteamro of Presi dent Kreta and were regarded by him as rovolutionlsts. Thn steamer reached Ln Libci tad August S , there she was boarded by oftlcors octlng under the direction of Proiidont E'.ota who demanded ot Captain F.P. . Wnltti , com mander of the City of Panama , the .surrender of Brennnn and his four companions. Captain White refused to comply with this domaml nnd the ofticcrt returned to shore and reported the result of tholr vlall to the com mandant of the port. The commandant Immediately wont to the stonmer with a bo.it lo.id of armed mon nnd Informed Captain White that the latter could consider himself under his order * us bo had coma to luke possession of the steamer nnd to arrest tlio men. Cup- tain White's indignation wns aroused at once nnd without waiting to discuss tlio mat ter nt all no told tbo commandant that it he did not leave the steamer immediately he would throw him overboard. The com mandant evidently perceived that Captain White was disposed to carry out Ills threat , for ho withdrew from the stcnmor without any further discussion. Ashort tltno before the steamer sailed from La Llberlad Captain White was informed that President Ezota had been notified of the ocourrunco on the City of Panama and that ho had gone with a largo armed force to Acajulta , the next port in Salvador nt which the steamer was to stop. The captain's information was to the effect that Hzota intended to await the ar rival of the steamer nt Acajulta and to tauo oft the refugees at all hazards. Captain White accordingly determined not to go to Acajultu nnd as there was no other port in Salvador nt which the steamer was sceduled to stop , ho proceeded to San Jose Do Guate mala , arriving August 11. Captain V'hitu nnd Mr. Bronnnn wont at once to the city of Guatemala and laid the facts of the cuso before United States Minister Puchoeo. The men whom President Ezota de irod to capture are now on Guatemala territory and lizeta has requested the authorities of Gua temala to surrender them. Tlio oxncl dolails of tbo charges made against the men by President Ezeta are not known boro. Brennan has resided in Salvador for boino time and is a railroad contractor. He is said to bo a man of means und of some prominence In the country. During the late war with Guatemala his business operations were In terrupted , and , it is said , that nt President Ezeta'a request be accepted n commission in the army of Salvador , enlisted bis railroad employes in the service and was instrumental in winning one or more battles In which ho was engaged. At tbo close of the war ho re turned from the military service , nnd when a rovolullon was threatened In Salvador .somo time later , it Is said that Ezota again desired Brcnnau to enter his service and enlist his railroad employes. Brennan declined to dose so , nnd it is supposed that in this way bo incurred Ezota's displeasure. Tbo four Salvndormns whom ICzota wished to sieve were Don Ayola , who claims to have boon legally elected president of Salvador , but who has been deprived of olllco ; General L. Lotpna , commaiidor-ln-chlcf of the Salvn- doriAii army in ISSj , but who hns been in exllo for the past llvo years ; Gcnor , ! ! L. Hernandez , n wealth } ' exile , and Colonel M. Hivas , of the Salvadorian army , a nephew of General Rlvas-wbo was executed try Ezeta's orders for tne part which bo took in tbo Into civil insurrection.

" Mr. Fred Irland of Detroit , the steno grapher who is to onicially report the con vention for the Stationary Engineer , is ono of ilia otllchil stenographers of the national loilEO of ropri'si-ntatlviis.

Speed and accuracy were both to bo consid ered , and in point of accuracy Mr. Irland'a work was so much superior that the judges declared the mutch a tie and tlio contestants divided llrst and second inonoy.

This is on miscellaneous days , when nonpolitical - political days nro up for consideration. The stenographer takes until ho has enough notes to make ft column of the Record , when ho Is relieved.
