The official account of the seizure by Admiral Dewey of the filibustering steamer Abbey, as reported in the press dispatches, is contained in tho following cablegram, received from the admiral to-day at the navy department: "Manila, Sept.

27. Having received nformation that the American steamer Abbey left Macao, September 21, with a cargo of arms for Batanges, I sent tho McCulloch. She arrived at Batagnes on the 23d and found the Abbey in the harbor, having arrived there threo days earlier and landed cargo. There were only Filipinos on board.

Manila: Your action in seizing American owned vessel Abbey approved.

Sho is amenable to martial jurisdiction for any violation of neu trality. Long." CUBANS IN OFFICE. Santiago Is Gradually Coming Under Their Control. Santiago de Cuba, Sept. 28.

Tho system of civil government established by General Wood is practically com plete and in good working order. Major McCleary, formerly attorney general for Texas and a Spanish scholar, has been appointed mayor, and the Spanish officials are giving place to Cubans. General Wood says he does not know the capabilities of the men taking office. They are chosen by a committee of fifty prominent Cubans whom he believes to be honest and conscientious. The committee recommends men whom its members think would be efficient in tho various offices to be filled.

The choice of men by the committee must bo unanimous, and must bo made over the signatures of the entire fifty members. General Wood finds that the plan works ad mirably. William Stakeman, before the war American consul at Manzanillo, ar rived here to-day and visited General Wood. lie recounted many lawless acts on the part of the insurgents, who he declares, tribute from everyone, tcrroriza peaceful people and threaten the confiscation of the property of merchants and planters. Many persons say that the recognition of the Cubans has not been granted because the bandits make work and prog ress impossible.

There is a general feeling of alarm in Manzanillo over the departure of the Spanish troops, and the American soldiers are anxiously awaited. MUTINY DURING A TYPHOON. Chinese Sailors on an American Ship Would Not Work in a Terrible Storm. Tacoma. Sept.

28. Fresh from an encounter with a typhoon on the Chinese sea the Northern Pacific liner Columbia steamed into port last night. The vessel was tossed like a shingle ten or twelve hours, driven many miles back on her course and carried so near the coast of Japan that tho seas shipped by the vessel left de posits of sand on the decks. The anchor had been cast, but tho chain snapped and the anchor and the cable were lost and the ship was forced near the shore. The storm occurred August 29, off Foo Chow, China.

Every one aboard believed the ship would never live through the storm. The Chinese sailors practically mutined after the ves sel was near shore, and could not be driven to work. Tho Europeans aboard, comprising only the officers, were compelled to do the work, with no assistance except that of a few sailors who happened to be passengers on the ship. The freight brought by the Columbia amounts to tons of tea, silk and general propucts. Drowned, Insane and Sick.

AN OVERWHELMING MAJORITY. All the Rest of the Piatt Ticket Nominated and the Mudo-In-Advanze Platform Adopted Favor Retention of All Territory Captured From Spain.

Saratoga, N. Sept. 28. Theodore Roosevelt was nominated for governor of New York by the Republican state convention. Tho nomination was made on the first ballot.

The vote was: Roosevelt, 753; Black, 218. Upon motion tho nomination was declared unanimous. For lieutenant governor Timothy L. Woodruff, renominated. Secretary of state John T.

Me-Donough. Comptroller William J. Morgan. State treasurer John R. Jaeckel.

Attorney-General John C. Davies. State engineer Edward A. Bond. All but Davies wero nominated by acclamation.

The following committee was appointed to bo an advisory board for the state committee: Thomas C. Piatt, Chauncey M. De-pew, Frank Hiscock, Edward Lauter-bach and Frank S. Witherbee. The platform sets out congratulat ing the people on tho successful issue of the war.

As to national expansion, the resolutions say: "We realize that when the necessi ties of war compelled our nation to destroy Spanish authority in the Antilles and the Philippines, we assumed solemn duties and obligations, alike to the people of the islands we conquered and to the civilized world. We cannot turn these islands back to Spain. We cannot leave them, unarmed for de THEODORE ROOSEVELT. fense and untried ia statecraft, to the horrors of domestic strife or to parti tion among European powers. We have assumed the responsibilities of victory, and wherever our flag has gone there the liberty, the humanity and the civilization which that flag embodies and represents must remain and abide forever.

"We commend the annexation of Hawaii in the interest of commerce, of national security and national devel opment. "We renew our allegiance to tho doctrines of the St. Louis platform. We continue to condemn and resist the Democratic policies declared at Chi cago. The organized Democratic party of tho nation adheres to those policies of free silver and free trade, and de nies tho right of the courts and of tho government to protect persons and property from violence.

Democrats may try to deceive the people by ignoring the anarchistic doctrines of that instrument in their state plat form, but their members in Congress and their Senator, if they should suc ceed in re-electing him, cannot and will not ignore those doctrines at Washington. i ne election ot ticpuoncan mem bers of Congress and of a Republican state legislature will mean that New York shall stand for the maintenance of the gold standard."

Colonel Good Paris Is, as a Rule, Cool Toward Our Commissioners, AFRAID WE WANT TOO MUCH, Disposition Shown to Prejudice tho Inten- Otlons of American Representatives and Find Fanlt With Them Go So Far as to Frodiot a Breaking In Negotiations, Paris, Sept. 28.

While the reception accorded tho United States peace com mission hero is all that could bo do-sired, and while the French foreign office has taken great pains to treat the Amncan and Spanish commissioners in precisely the same manner, it must bo admitted that the general atmosphere of Taris, especially tho diplomatic atmosphere, does not incline toward America. It is the general impression hero that the A merican commissioners have instructions to provide for tho retention of Manila and the island of Luzon, "and for a commission to pretend to negotiate is a farce," said a prominent diplomat. Ho continued: "America will put herself diplomatically in tho wrong when she exceeds tho provisions of the protocol, which both nations have signed. I know the Spaniards havo come prepared to make concessions; but, if tho Americans' instructions aro of an uncompromising nature, which is generally believed here to bo the case, you can rest assured that the work of the commission will bz futile. The Spaniards will retir3 and America will at least have to threaten a resumption of hostilities before she will gain her point." The French newspapers, beyond announcing tho arrival of tho commissioners, make no comment on tho matter.

As the joint commission is not a deliberative body, it will possibly not organize with a presiding member from either commission. This is deemed in some quarters to be the wiser plan, as tending to promote closer working relations between tho two commissions, and facilitating as ultimate adjustment. This, however, is not positive. President Fauro will receive tho members of the American and Spanish peace commissioners separately this afternoon. In the morning the Amer ican commissioners will visit tho grounds of the Paris exposition of 1900 in company with Ferdinand vv.

Peck, the United States commissioner to the exposition. HARD LUCK IN KLONDIKE. A Great Change in the Stories Brought by Home Comers. Port Townsend, Sept. 28.

Would Oust the Archbishop. New York, Sept. 2S. A dispatch to the New York Herald from Santiago de Cuba says: Ov Ing to the strong animus shown by the archbishop of Santiago during the war more than a hundred leading Cubans petitioned General Wood that representation be made to the pope for the archbishop's removal and for the appointment of Father Luis Mustellier, canon of the church here, as his successor.

Virtually an Invitation for European Interference If Filipinos Conduct Them-iolvoi Aright They Will Not Be Left at the r.Iercy of Spain or Any Nation. "Washington, Sept.

39. Tho freedom with which the Spanish minister for foreign affairs, tho Duke Almo-dovar del Rio, has (riven publicity to the instructions to the Spanish peace commissioners as to tne disposition of tho Philippines has given rise to suspicion among1 officials here that there is behind it a deliberate purpose to draw out in advance the position of the American commissioners on this most important point. It is noted now that heretofore the Spanish government has waited upon the United States to make each of the steps toward final peace before making a move on their side, so that this sudden change in policy is accounted for only on the ground stated. There is, besides this apparent pur-poso, a veiled threat in the last instruction not under any circumstances to allow the United States to interfere with any disposition of the islands outside of those retained by the United States, such as Luzon, that Spain may see fit to make. This is believed to be an invitation to some of the Continental powers to step forward in support of Spain in this extremity, in the hope of receiving as a quid pro quo, some one of the Philippines as a coaling or naval station.

Although the American peace commissioners hava so far successfully resisod all attempts to ascertain the exac' nature of their instructions, something is known of their general character, and it may be stated on this point of the final disposition of such of the Philippines as are not held by the United States while the President has iovvhere.icectl admitted any obligation to the insurgents, yet so long as they carry out their part and avoid a rupture with our forces at Manila, ho feels that, in any arrangement that shall bo made by the peace commission for the final disposition of the islands, tho in surgents shall not be placed at the mercy of the Spanish government without guarantess for their proper treatment. By an extension of this same view it is unlikely that he would care to allow them to bo turned over to another power that might oppressively treat them, and especially without tho consent of the natives. PUGILIST RUNS AMUCK, Young Griffo Suddenly Becomes a Maniac in Chicago. Chicago, Sept. 28.

Albert Griffiths, better known as "Young Griffo," the pugilist, is strapped in a straight jacket at the Harrison street police station, where he is being held pending an examination into his mental condition.

Griffiths was drinking in a saloon when he suddet)ly leaped into the air, turned loose a series of yells and rushed into the street where he hit everybody he could reach.
