A CHILIAN SHIP SEIZED.

Her Captain Placed Under Ar-
rest-Two Other Boat's Found
Inalde the Three Mile Limit
Smuggling Supplies.
San Dikoo, Cal. May 6. Last night
U. 8. marshal Gnrd seized the Chilian
steamer Etata, now receiving supplies in
the harbor, and placed Capt. Manzeum
under arrest. Telegrams have been
passing between this city and the depart
ment at Washington which brought
about the above results. Tug boats
bave left to seize two vessels seen out
side, one of which is supposed to be
Robert and Minnie, and the other a war
ship belonging to the insurgents, which
has been hovering uround the entrance
to the harbor to receive the supplies
taken onboard the Etata. The warship
was first sighted about noon yesterday
passing north. Ten hours later she
passed the harbor going south, laying
to just north of the Coronado islands.
Custom Officer Berry sent a party out to
investigate, who reported seeing a larue
vessel wnicti they could not ap
proach nearer than two miles on
account of her steaminga way from them.
Orders were received Irom secretary
Blaine to seize both vessels if found with
in the three-mile limit, and marshal Gard
and collector Berry went out last night
in different tugs for that purpose.
At midnight Inst the nuj'it Ktata received
forty head of cattle, twenty-five head ol
shctp, and three thousand pounds of
(ircsseci meat irom a Icrry boat at Lo
ranado. The vessel had also received other
stores, including 800 tons of coal. As
soon as all provisions nnd fuel were on
Hoard she expected to leave the harbor
ind cruise between here and Latahna to
meet the schooners Robert and Minnie
from which which she Wds to take Rem
ington rifles nnd nmunition. She was
to sail last night.
NO INDICTMENTS FOUND.
The Report or the New Orleans
Grand Jury.
New Orleans, Muy 6. After six
weeks investigation the grand jury has
completed its laborson the Hcnnessv case
and the killing of the Italians at the
Parish prison.
The jury is emphatic in its expression
of the conviction that the result of the
trial of the Italians was due to tamper
ing with the jury by Detective O'Mullv
and others associated with and employed
oy mm.
Asto thcMaha the grand nirv says:
The range of our researches has develop
ed the existence of a secret organization
styled "Maliu." Evidence conies from
several sources fully competent in them
selves to attest it as the truth, while the
tact is supported by a long record ol
blood-curdling crimes, it being almost im
possible to discover the perpetrators or
secure witnesses.
The report concludes: "The maeni-
tude ot this affair makes difficult the task
to fix guilt on any particular member of
the participants; iu tuct it seemed to in
volve the entire people of the parish and
city of New Orleans so profuse is their
sympathy anu cxienueu is tneir connec
tion with the atlair. An examination of the
subject has failed to disclose the neces
sary facts to justify this grand jury in
presenting luutctmcnts.
MORE DIRT BOLD.
E. U. Carrier Will Build a Fine
Stone Mansion.
There is considerable movement in reul
estate in and near Asheville.
Yesterday E. G. Carrier bought of the
West Asheville Improvement company
ten acres of land lying just west of the
French Broad and fronting on the river.
The property adjoins that of T. B. Ly
man. The price paid by Mr. Carrier was
$500 an acre. The same property about
a year ago was worth $2.50 or $300 an
acre.
It is the purpose of Mr. Carrier to at
once begin the erection of a magnificent
stone residence on this proertv, which
he will occupy himself. It is
near the line of the Asheville and Sulphur
Springs railway, and will be a beautiful
residence site, worthy of being improved
as Mr. Carrier intends it shall be, on a
splendid scale.
