asked him how it was possible to expect him
to conse.it to the handing over of many thou-
sands of Mussulmans to Greece in view of
the disgraceful treatment experienced by
Mussulmans from Bulgarians and expressed
a fear that tho Greeks would act in a similar
manner tow.ird them Mr. Qoschon aBsur d
the sultan thit this was 'tnpossible and said
be felt sure that England and the other
powers would guarantee good treatment to
Mueselmaus. It is believed Mr. Goschen's

the transfer of Dulcigno more favorably.

ropar of the forts at the Black sea entrance
to the Bosphorus.

Tsing Li Yamin stubbornly refuses to dis-
close his in ntions respecting tho Ivildja af-

western ministers who unani-
mously urge pacific settlement but gives no
sign of dissent. It is believed by the best
qualified oskerver that the ultimate decision
depends upon events yet to come and will
lie ln-irlv influenced by reports now Whited
for from antral A?ia and by the attitude of
the diplomatic corps when all tne members

Philadelphia Aug. 24. A new light bas
been turned on Buchanan's death. Mr.
Thomas Coyle the noted swimmer who
achieved an international reputation a few
years ago by bis match with Johnson tbo
English champion residing near Linwood
on the line of the Philadelphia WImirgton
& Baltimore railroad a little under two
miles from Chester tells bis story:
"Last Wednesday evening soon after
dark a closed carriage drove up to our door.
My son (a boy of six years) was in this room
(a parlor opening into the street) and my
wife was out in the back kitchen. Tbe boy
went to the do r which was open and Jim
Longbottom who keeps a saloon down by
the Chester depot got out of the carriage.
So far as he could see it looked as though
there were two or three other poople in tho
carriage a driver was on the 6eal. Mr.
Longbottom came to the door and asked for
me. The boy told bim I had
GONE AWAY
and would not be back for a couple of days.
Then the boy asked Longbcltoin what be
wanted and he said be wanted to know what
County in Ireland I was born in as be was
going to correspond with a paper in the place.
It was funny wasn't it that he was going to
writo tor a paper when he didn't know the
place it was iu? Then be got into tbe car-
ri ge and went away. My boy told mo of
these things when I got borne and 1 made up
my mind to go and sue Longbottom; but I
couldn't get a chance to do so until Saturday
night. 1 went down to bis place and found
him there. After I bad been thero a few
moments he called me aside and said to mo :
"Tom cou'.d you jump off a ferryboat or a
steamer while it was going and get out all
right!'
'That I could" said I.
"Well" he said "then there's a ob for
you."
"All right" said I; "I'm your man where
is it to be?"
"In the Dulawaro near Philadelphia" be
said. I am not certain whether hn said near
or at Philadelphia.
"All right" I said again. Then I aaked :
"HOW MUCH IS THKRK IN IT !"
"Fifty dollars" was bis answer
"All right" I says once moro.
Then he waitod a moment or two. Pres-
ently he said : "Couldn't you put or. a pair
of 'corporations (rubbing his hand over his
stomaoh) something to make you look
stout you know ?"
I said I supposed I could.
"And a pair of short side-whiskers t" he
went on stroking down his cheeks with bis
fingers. (Mr. Coylu has a clean-shaven face
with a slight mustache.)
" Yes" I answered.
"Then that will be all right" be respond-
ed. " I'll lot you know when it is to be done
and when I'll want vou."
" When I cet home" continued Coyle " I
told my wife what had been said to me.
When turning it over in my mind on the
way I began to think there was something
crooked at tbe bottom of tbe thing. My
wife thought so too and adviselme not to
have anything to do with it. Tho next day
we talked it ovor again and I got tbe idea
into my head that somebody was going to
be murdered and that I was wanted to jump
off a boat in order to make it appear that
be bad committed suicide l Knew a man
who
JUST ANSWERED THE DESCRIPTION
of the make-up that I was to assume and I
went to him and toll hi n to be on his guard.
He is a Chester man but 1 would rather not
brine his name into this business at present.
I did not hear anything more about the affair
trom jjongDouom ana on Aionaay mgni x
wont down to his place. Tbey told me he
was not at home but his mother called me
aside and said:
" '1 know what vou want to see him about.
The people were here yosterdiy (Sunday) to
talk about it But I don't think we can do
anything about what my son was talking to
you. We can't do anyiliing with that man
and I guess we'll have to let the thing go.' "
"I did not think" continued Mr. Coyle
"to ask who 'that man was. When I got
home I went and saw my brother-in-law
about it and then I decided to lot the whole
affair drop. Still I bad it on my conscience
that something was wrong and this morning
I went and told what I knew to the mavor of
Chester and the chief of police. That's all
there is and every word of it is true."
Inquiries at mayor Norwood s house at tor
this statement had boon taken proved that
that officer was absent in Media. Chief of
Police Lilzenburg was found and corrob
orated Coyle's statement as to his having
loin nim me story at saiu vum ne uau noi
taken any steps in the matter and really did
not know that there was anything which he
could do in tbe premises.
Buchanan's body or the body of the man
who jumped overboard trom tbe terrybont

Richmond Vs. Aug. 24.-For several days
past vague rumors have prevailed here that
correspondence was going on between well
knon citizens which might result iu a hos
tile meeting but last evening it was reported
that the correspondence had terminated
in au amicable adjustment of the difficulty
between the parties. This morning how-
ever the affair is reported to h H.VA ttAtllimal
different aspect and upon the strength of
.ma cjurk wnrranis worn issuou tor the ar-
resi ot me alleged principals Dr.
ueorge li. Johnston son of UniUd
Slates Sonator Johnston and nephew of Gen-
ijini uu u. joiinsion ana uaptuin John S.
V ise son of the late Governor Honry A.
Wise on the charge of ting engafnd
in a breach of tho peace. Dr.
Johnston whs arrested at 2 o'clock
this morning and Ukcn before
a niagiHrate and bailed in tho sum of $2 003
for his appearance at court to-morrow.
Captain Wise hits not yet beou arrested. The
difficulty is Shidto have its origin as iollows:
La?t winter Caplsin Wise's nirne was pre-
sented for membership iu the Westmoreland
club which is composed ot many of tho best
citizens of Richmond; but despite the cap-
tain was of high and social stan ling lie was
notwitlistandit.g blackballed with comidera-
blo unanimity. This action uf tho
club Mia genorally known and
iroeiy discussed. Various ross.ms
being designed therefor but the act wus not
made public until recently when Dr. John-
ston stated in such h manner ihnt tho infor-
mation would reach Captain Wise that ho
wasoneoftho many who bad blackballed
Wise and that he also had oreaanized and
carried out the movement which bad re-
sulted in that gentleman's reje'-
tion giving ssa rcawn for doing so that
he (Johnston) had not in the least considered
that Wise's conduct in the congressional
canvass In which his uncle Joseph E.
Johnston was a candidate had been that
of a geatlemsn toward General Johnston;
that be bad not treated him with such respect
as the general's age and position should have
demanded. It it still claimed by the friends
of the parties that the matter bad been ad-
lusted and that thore was no necessity for the
arrest ot tho principals and the consequent
publicity.
Discriminating Duty
Washington Aug. 24. The following was
issued by the treasury department this after
noon : In regard to the imposition of dis-
criminating duties on goods expected to ar-
rive by a Chinese vessel now due at San
Francisco it may be stated that the troasury
department holds that the discriminating
duty of ten per centum ad valorum must un-
der tbe present regulations be charged on
those goods under section 2501 of the re-
vised statutes and the collector of customs
at San Francisco bas been instructed accord-
ingly. Howover if it appears that China
makes no discrimination iu regard to imports
from the United States over that from othor
couutries it would be competent for
tbe president to issue bis proclamation
i-ader section 4428 of the revised statutes.
reliuving such goods from tbe discriminating
duty. It is understood the state department
is now making the necessary investigation to
determine the facts upon this point. It was
informally agreed after the adjournment of
the cabinet to-day to prepare a proclamation
extending these commercial privileges now
er j iyrd by other nations of the Chinese ves
sels now on their wavtosan Francisco laden
with Hawaian products. Preparations for
drafting tbis proclamat'on began at the de-
partment of state tbis afternoon and if com-
pleted will be substituted to tbe cabinet for
consideration next Tuesday. It will be quite
an elaborate document.
