Slightly wounded : Native Johnny Para- matta and the baron's servant , Nickel ) . The Albatross was commissioned by the Austrian government to make nclcntiric cx- ploratlons of the Solomon Islands. During the middle of last August a landing was made at a place called Tlttrl on the north ccast of Guadalcanar. From there a party consisting of Baron Fotillon von Norbcck , Lieutenant Iludlk , Midshipman de Deaufort , twenty sailors , the baron's two servants nnd two native guides , started out for the purpose of exploring n mountain In the In terior of the Island , called the Lion's Head. After two days marching one midshipman and seven sailors returned , the men not being able to stand the heavy walking In the bush. Thu baron's party that proceeded reached a camping place at the foot of the Lion's Head. The baron and his servants , with native guides , wcro In the lead , going up the hill , several natives being apparently near or mixed with the party , when near the top they heard two shots fired In the neighborhood of the camp they left , and at the slmo tlmo they saw n bushman standing on the top of a rise , a llttlo above them , making some signs. As he appeared two shots were fired lower down on the mountain , from the direction of the camp. The shots seamed to bo a signal from the chief to attack the party. Ilushmcn from a score of places at once rushed out and the baron was struck on the nock with a tomahawk , whllo a crowd of bushmcn attacked the rest of the party with clubs. The native who had cut down the biron was shot by a sailor. Llcuten ut liudlk also put his revolver to good usi. Ono sailor bad to protect himself with a tomahawk he had wrested from a native. The.other sall- urn were well armed , and the bushmen finally had to retreat to the woods , many of them wounded. The baron was not the only one of thu party badly hurt. At first It was thought ho would recover , hut he gradually sank after he had walked back to camp , and died In three hours. The sight when the party returned to camp was a bloody one. Midshipman dc Ilcaufort had been cut to death and thu sailors and one native guide. Six sailors and one guide- had been wounded. One of the guides , John Pnramalta < fought bravely , though his hand had been seriously wounded , The rifles finally told on the natives and they withdrew. The news was then sent to Captain Mauler of the Albatross , and n relief party , headed by first Lieutenant Kublal , and consisting of the doctor and thirty sailors , was sent and a safe return to the ship was made. Aftc/ the Injured men had' been taken aboard the Albatross , Captain Mauler sailed for Cook Town and from thence the Albatross will go to Sydney. _ _ _ _ _ _ TIJUH TltKATKI ) AS PIIIATI3S.

In this communica tion Mr. Castle cxpreitacs his deep gratitude tor all they nnd olher officials , well ns Ihe Friends of the family In America , have done In his behalf.

" Continuing Mr. Castle wrllcs : "The most difficult task of my life Is to frame words which can. In the greatest degree , express my heartfelt gratitude for the disinterested ( Indncss showered upon me by the honor able gentlemen of the embassy and by seem ingly unlimited friends In London and America. I owe them a debt ot gratitude which cannot be liquidated In a lifetime and the more I think of Ihe loving care with which I have been watched and pro tected during my days of misfortune , the less can I comprehend how It Is possible that a man comparatively unknown and thousands of miles nwny from home can iwaken such sympathy and secure the dis interested help of such a large number of prominent people of both great nations. " Later in tlu\ \ day Mr. . Castle called at the London office of the Associated press and said ho hoped Ihe Associated press would again convey the expressions of his gratl- : udo to his friends In the United States. Mr. Castle , who wan looking as though he ind regained his health and confidence since ils appearance in court on Tuesday , retold in a Htralghtforward manner the circum stances of the case as already cabled. lie added : "I wan leaving England In the best of spirits , had enjoyed my vacation and had at the same lime opened Important business connections here1 nnd on the continent which , in my opinion , would please my brother and help my firm. "I was also taking homo to my mother , " continued Mr. Caslle , "good news In regard : o a projccl which Is dear to her heart , namely , the Jewish hospital of San Fran cisco. I had approached liaroncss Hlrnch on the subject cud had just received a letter latcd Elchborn , Austria , In which the baron- csa subscribed $5,000 lo the Mount Zlon lospltal , San Francisco.

The Globe Ihis after noon publishes a startling story of the alleged kidnaping and Imprisonment ot a Chinaman In the Chinese legation here. The newspaper mentioned says thai Ihe Chinese government learned In November lasl that tlicro existed a conspiracy to seize the viceroy of Canton , ns the firat step toward the overlhrow of Ihe present inanchu dynasty. The plot was discovered by the premature Importation of 400 coolies to Canton , lo assist In the kidnaping , which aroused suspicion. Some of the leaders were arrested and confessed , and one of them , lr. Sun Yat Sen , escaped to the United States and thcuco made his way to London. This doctor , It U now alleged , has keen missing since Saturday a week ago , and some of his English friends claim they have learned that he Is Imprisoned at the Chinese legation , having been seized by a couple of Chinese. The foreign- office nnd Scotland Yard of ficials are watching the Chinese legation In order to prevent the removal of the doctor. The sensational story Is confirmed though thcro nre various reports of Ihe manner In which Iho nrrcsl was made. Sir Ilalllday McCartney , the counsellor of the Chinese legation , has come out In an Interview pro testing strongly against the statement thai the man was captured In the street. "Ho was not tvcn Induced to visit the legation , " snld Sir Ilalllday , "but came there of his own accord nioro than once , believing he would not be recognized , with a vievt of spyIng - Ing on officials here. Ho was recognized and arrested. " The man's friends In London say he Is a Hrltlsh subject. Ho has conveyed to them the Intelligence that , ho will be poisoned or starved to death , having had practically noth ing to cat since bin arrest. Sun Yat Sen practiced as u physician In the United Stales before coming here. < ; ii.vu : uAi'ius * souxn .MO.VKY DAY. nemoeratx of Unit Section of lotvii 1Iale a DeiuoiiNtratloa.

VANCOUVER , II. C. , Oct. 22. The Em press of Japan , which has Jusl arrived from the Orient , brings advices regarding the rebellion against the Spanish In Iho Phil ippine Islands , confirming the previous re ports that the Spaniards will likely have anolher war as serious as lhat In Cuba ou their hands. Governor General lllnnco realizes that with the present force he Is unable to quell the revolt and consequently Is awaiting Iho arrival ot reinforcements before strik ing a decisive blow. Meantime the rebels are doing a great deal of damage to property and murdering and robbing Iho Inhabitants. The rebellion has spread lethe the provinces ot Manilla , LHilacnti , Pam- panga , Nucva , Tarlac , La Lagulna , Cavlto and llntangns. An Illustration of the atrocities perpetrated by the rebels Is fur nished by an atlack on a largo monaslery In Cavllo province , which Ihey have since Used as their headquarters. This was one of the first places attached. Maddened by the refusal of padrcas to yield , Iho rebels , on gelling Inside , resetted to the mosl fiendish lorturcs In order to wreak their vengeance on the padreas. Several of them wcro hanged to trees and roasted to death by burning wllh kerosene oil. Olhers 'wcro ' put to death In an even more cruel man ner , portions of their bodies being cut off by piecemeal. In the monastery the rebels were well supplied with rifles , ammuni tion and food , and so far hove succeeded In driving oil the Spanish troops. Tha report that the slip and arsenal at Cavlte were In the hands of Iho rebels has since been denied. In Manilla , things are practically nt a standstill. The prisons' arc crowded with prisoners and over 300 have been deported lo Iho Carolines. Hy lorlure the Spaniards have wrung many secrets from Iho pris oners. A triangular mark cut In Ihe arm Is the badge of membership of the revolu tionary society. The prison at Manilla , which has earned for Itself the title of "Black Hole of Manilla , " Is an old for tress. Prisoners arc thrown Into a dun geon , entrance Into which Is gained by a hole In the roof. The only ventilation Is through a barred opening underneath Ihe platform floor , and at high tide this means ot ventilation Is totally closed nnd largo numbers of prisoners who did not dto from suffocallon wcro found to have torn each other In a dreadful manner In fits ot In sanity. Numerous accusations ot cowardice have been made against Iho Spanish. In a 'brush ' wllh Iho rebels they placed native troops In the van and when these were dispersed the Spaniards fled. To show the stress to which the authorities are placed for men , , discharging of the steamers was suspendedf for some days because tbcro were no ol- ' ' customs officers. H. 51. S. Pigmy has left Hong Kong for Manilla to relieve the Redpolc. Another ship will also bo sent there shortly In response to the request of British subjects.

The archbishops of the Calhnlic church wcro In cession throughout today at the Catholic univer sity concerning the general affairs of the church. The subjects considered were mainly those ot church organization. Mgr. Stcphan , head of Iho Calbollc Uurcau of Indian Missions , appeared before the pre lates and made a statement of the Indian schools , with a vlow to determining what course shall bo taken when government' ls withdrawn on July 1 next , Ho reported that $195,229 of government money was available this year , which Is n CO per cent i eduction from last year. A committee of the archbishops , consisting of Cardinal Gibbons bens and Archbishops Corrlgan and Ryan and Bishop Keane , will further consider the Indian question at a meeting at Balti more tomorrow. Llttlo remains to bo done beyond apportioning the funds available. The parochial schools question did not comn up for consideration as had been expected , and the expressions were general among members of the board after the meeting that the subject had ceased to be a source ot difference or vexation. It Is expected a eatechlsl of learning will bo chosen to simplify the catechism , but this , will be verbal rather than doctrinal. At a supplemental meeting of the uni versity board today Archbishop Corrlgan was designated lo wrlto Iho teller to the pope nominating the three namis from which a choice will bo made for rector of the university. The board of directors of the university authorized the following of ficial statement to be made , owing to pub lished reports lhat there had been Internal dissensions In the board : "The board wishes It to bo understood by the public that there arc absolutely no factions or ccctlonal differences among the members. The election of the candidates for Iho rec torship was practically unanimous. To epeak of the triumph of conservatism over liberalism , nationalism or Americanism Is .to misrepresent the whole situation. All the members of the board arc equally American in spirit. They have but ono thought , and that la" * the welfare of the university nnd Its steady progress to the highest Catholic education. DenthM of n DIIJ- . BURWELL , Neb. . Oct. 22. ( Special. ) A.

SECRETARY DENOUNCES FREE COINAGE n Denioc'ratle Prlnt'lplcM nt niul DeclnreN lie Will Vote for 1'nlnier niul IliieUnor "N the True DemocriitN , COVINGTON , Ky. , Oct. 22. Secretary of the Treasury John G. Carlisle made Ihe first ot his scries of Kentucky speeches hero tonight In Odd Fellows' hall , which was crowded to Ils utmost capacity. He Was received with most generous and hearty applause when he appeared on the stage. This was followed by vociferous cheers tor Bryan from about 100 men standing In a line at the rear ot the hall. This con tinued some time after Secretary Carlisle began to speak , completely drowning his voice , so those nearest him on the singe could not hear his words. At thu same time a crowd occupied the street and rent the air wllh shouls for Bryan. This continued at frequent Intervals during the enltrc speaking. Now and Ihcn a man on Iho DiUldc would shout , "Carlisle , the trailer. " Once , after Mr. Carlisle began his speech , ho stopped and begged the turbulent crowd lo leave the hall. The disturbers did not leave , but they Interrupted him afterwaid less frequently. The mayor and several po licemen were In the hall , but no percep tible effort was made to stop the disturb- once. once.While While Secretary Carlisle was Intcrruplcd continuously during his speech and eggs wcro thrown about the hall , four being thrown upon the slage , Iho most disorderly scene was at the close of the meeting , when hoodlums gathered about the exit wllh In sulting remarks. There were many noisy people on the street and In such spirit as to threaten violence as well as Insult to the secretary. The authorities had not taken radical action to prevent disturbance up lo this lime , but after the meeting the mayor and chief of police promptly fur nished a detRchmenl of twenty policemen , who safely and quietly escorted Secretary Carlisle to the residence of Mr. Frank Holm. Secretary Carlisle was disturbed and showed his annoyance over the yelling at the opening of the meeting , but lie did not know any eggs had been thrown till after the meeting was over , although one ot the eggs struck the center chandelier. He was Intensely lu earnest In his argument and held his audience In close attention. He was unconscious of the howling clement outside of the hall and was himself sur prised nt the calling ot a detachment of police to escort him to Mr. Helm's residence. He will speak at Bowling Green Saturday night and at other points In Kentucky ncxl week , when II Is feared he will encounter disturbances. Mr. Carlisle opened by challenging his "severest opponents , " although he had par ticipated in nearly every political contest lhat had occurred In the country since he was 20 years old , to show that ho had ever uttered an undemocratic sentiment or cast an undemocratic vole , and proceeded : = yi < h 'fo.wora..demoqratlai principles long befpru/Uicro'WnH nny3dBhlpcrutla-orinnlzn , history of thl country-wtfcnrMhrrewuir. not a strong and iiBbresmvo'tlrmoonulo > sentiment among our people. It was the vital forcu behind the revolution which resulted In the achievement of our Inde pendence ; It was embodied In that great declaration which startled thu crowned heads nnd electrified Iho oppressed people of thu world In 177C. What am the prin ciples of this American democracy , for I do not rcTer lo Dial wild , turbulent and itestrucllve form of democracy which lias 'icen Imported from abroad nnd which IH EO nearly allied to anarchy thnt It !

HISTORIC DEMOCRACY. These are some of the familiar and es sential articles In the creed of the old democracy which during the last 100 years nan been Illustrated and consecrated by the genius of Thomas Jefferson , the hero ism of Andrew Jackson , and the courage- , fidelity and patriotism of Grover Cleve land. During all that tlmo democracy lias constituted the nreat conservative force of thn country. It Is opposed to paternalism and radicalism In all their forms , and at cyery great crisis In our affairs It has ap pealed to the sober reason and Judgment of the people for support. It docs not recognize the omnipotence of any human government nnd 11 , therefore , denies the power of congress or parliaments or kings to create value's by laws or proclamations. This Is the kind of democratic doctrine I believe In , and my support will -bo given to the candidates who represent It In this contest. After reference to the question of party regularity , Mr. Carlisle proceeded : Here In Kentucky thu state committee , without authority , and In defiance of the action of the Htate convention , which nomi nated a full electoral ticket , ban entered Into a contract by which It has traded off a part of the votes of the people , actually bargained , sold , assigned and transferred them from some of the electoral candidates regularly nominated by tbo democratic con vention at Lexington to your electoral can didates selected by the populist committee , thus making It Impossible for any citizen of this flute to so cast his vote at thu approaching election as to give the nomi nees of thu Chicago convention the entire benefit of bis support. Have'wu cenned to be democrats because wo refuse to support tills electoral ticket not nominated by tbo state convention , but mutilated and dis figured by thu names of now electoral can didates , pledged to cast tnelr votes for a wild and recklens pomillst for vice presi dent of the l.'nlted States * , and who. If elected , might become president , and be In vested with all the jmwers of that great olllce. This IH not a democratic electoral ticket ; It represents two political parties and two political platforms , no one ot which Is democratic , according to any doctrinal or historical test that can be applied to them. .MUST HE SETTLED ON MERITS. In view of the record of the party. I Insist that thu proposition to revolutionize- monetary system by legislation authorizing Uiu free nnd unlimited coinage of legal ten- dur silver at thu ratio of II ! to 1 , when thu trite commercial ratio In about 31 to 1 , must bo considered and decided entirely on Its own merits , without any adventitious sup port from the assumption that It IH of demo cratic ! origin , or that It I * consistent with any democratic flnanclnl policy ever here tofore authoritatively announced ; but If such a policy IK right , If It IH not Incompati ble with tbu honest observance of public and private. obllgnlloiiH , and would bo bene ficial to the country , the fact thai It originated with our political opponents and IH a wldu departure from our past declara tions on the subject , ought not to prevent Its favorable consideration. The question U not whether the United Hlatcs nloue have the power to adopt free coinage and Hllver monomutnllem , but whether In view of our own domestic con ditions nnd Interests , and of our extensive commercial nnd financial relations with the other treat civilized nations of the world , ; It would bo good policy and good faith to muku sueli a radical change In our cur rency and such a wholesale repudiation ot our obligations. it Is not a question of power ; It IH not a question of national Independence - pendonco , bill It IH a question of prosperity and natoir.il ! honor Ou one point only do wo question the power of the t'nlted HtatcH In reHipcct lo tills subject , Wo deny ubso- lutely th : legislative or executive net of till * p i > nt or of nny other govern- ineiit , In gieal and powerful , can make do In silver equal In value to IPO cents , of gold , or equal In value to the uo _ ties which 100 cents In gold will buy OUS EXPERIMENT. Mr. C then made nn exhaustive argtimcn it the free coinage of sliver , In which itcnded thnt It was n dan- gcrous which , If It becnine a law of the oiihl result disastrously to all business and occupations ; nnd to none would UH effect prove more harmful than to the farmer nnd the wage earner. Con tinuing , he said : If the American people will declare by nn overwhelming majority of their votes * thai our prcwonl standard of value Is to be permanently maintained , thnt no oon- tract * are to be violated , no obligations repudiated. In wholeor in part , and that the public peace Is to bo constantly main tained , public and private property scrupulously protected and the public au thority promptly vindicated whenever and wherever It may be assailed , n long step will bo Inkcn toward tbu restoration of prosperity In every part of the country. The next step Is to take the government of the Unltc-d States entirely out of the banking business by retiring nnd selling every one of the notes issued by It , thus forever stopping thu demand upon the treasury for their redemption In gold or silver and placing the hurnon of furnishing gold , when gold Is demanded for the re demption of notes , upon the banks , where It properly belongs nnd where It always rested until the government most mnvltuly Inaugurated the policy of Issuing Its own obligations to circulate an money. Retire the old United States notes and the treas ury notes of ISM and gold will flow Into this country from all parts of the world to takeIhelr places In the circulation nnd our currency system will bo firmly established upon n substantial and enduring basis. There aru many who believe , or profess to l/cllcva that these Importations of got-.l nre due to some artificial cause. I can ns- sum our rupplcloua friends thnt there 13 nothing nrtlllclnl In this movement of gold , that It Is the natural nnd necessary result of the existing financial conditions on the opposite .tides of the Atlantic nnd that It will cense whenever the equilibrium Is sub stantially restored , whether that be before or after election. It will certainly cense after the election whether tbtS equilibrium Is restored or not , If thn people of the l.'ulted States , by their votes. Inaugurate the policy of free coinage at tbu ratio of Iti to 1 , nnd Ihu gold , whicn , favorable bal ance and profitable rate ? of Interest have recently brought to our shores , will depart from us ns rapidly ns the fastest ship * can carry It across Ibe sen. Our treasury re- pcrve will be Immediately exhausted , the gold cold by the people and financial In stitutions will cease to be used as money , the circulation will bo puddonly and enor- inous'y contracted , not only by the with drawal of gold , but on account of the In- evltnble panic which will prevail In o\-ery part of the country , and we shall enter nt once upon a long period of suffering nnd distress unparalleled In our history. Un til I havn lost nil confidence In the Intelli gence nnd patriotism of the American peo- ide , I cannot believe they wl'l deliberately Incur the risk of Industrial and commercial ruin , merely for the purpose of making n financial experiment , which IH opposed to rill dtetales of Hound reason and condemned by the experience of a'l mankind.

A few even ings ago a sound money democratic rally was In progress In that place , when about forty visitors from the country tried to break up the meeting. The marshal stepped in to keep the peace , when the mob grabbed him and commenced to abuse him most shamefully. Ills head received sev eral bad gashes , which has placed him In a critical condition. The marshal was taken to his homo by n few friends , who finally secured possession of him. After the mar shal was taken away the mob proceeded to break nnd destroy property. Stones were recklessly dashed through the furniture store windows and other acts of violence committed. The cases against the men ar rested will be pushed with vigor. Kl.KOTIO.V CASKS I.V MOXTAXA.

Next came the principal event of the day , the address by the president of the United States. Mr. Cleveland spoke as follows : Mr. Provident nnd I miles nnd Oentlo- incn : As thorfi !
