Nzw Yohk, May 7.—Toe strike of the

tially sacoe-sfal. Tne agent of the Pa-
oifio mail Steamship Company, Hading
it lmpoB-ribte to get bis eteamer off on

their former wages. He had no dtfficul

The Frenob Une. finding it impossible to

Pakaua, April 28 —The flret naval eo-
counter of the three cornered dnel now
goiog on in Sooth America, took place on
tbe 14’.h off the river Loa, between the
Chilian corvette Magaliania on one
side, and the Peruvian vessels Union
and Ptloom*ye on the other.
The Peruvian vessels eat ltd from Cal
lao several we-ks ago to Antofagasta.
O-i their arrival at that p-unt they fonnd
the harbor deserted. Tney then pio-
ceeded noitb, and when abreast of the
Loa, sighted the Chilian vessel A sharp
firing was maintained two hours, but it
appears that the damage inflicted was
alight. The Chilian vessel had six guns
• ith which to oppose twenty, and after
burning a little powder without effect,
the Chilian captain ooncladed to with
draw from the fi^ht, which he did, run
ning away easily from the Peruvian
ebipp.
No report of cxsnalties have been made
public, but Capt. Garcia, in command
of the Peruvian vessels, reports that his
command behav-d remarkably well.
Washington, May 7.—In the Senate,
on motion of Ingals a resolution was
adop'ed calling on the President to com-
mnnicate to the Senate what measnrea
have been taken to prevent the occupa
tion of Indian Territory by white sett lets.
In tbe House Mr. Chalmers, of Missis
sippi, called up, as a question of prtv
ilege.tbe resolution previously offered by
him for an investigation into bis conduct
at Fort Pillow. He said that hie friends
had pointed oat to him a difficulty in the
way of such au investigation, and that
he himself recognized tbe danger of re
kindling the flames of passion and prtju-
dise which all good men deaired to tee
covered up in their ashes; but it was a
hard .hing to aek soldiers who had lost
all cave honor to permit that also to be
taken from them by tho repetition of ac
cusations that were utterly untrue.
Tbe aotion of tbe House yesterday, bad
satiefied him that tbe gxutletnen were
not willing now to go into that investiga
tion, and therefore he had coneladed to
accept the advice of his frietdi and to
make bis orostatement.
He prooseded to na'ra’.e tbe incidents
of the attack on Fort Pillow, in which at
tack he h-td been early in the • ay in com
mand of tbe Confederate oavalry ; bnt
about nine o’clock in the mointog Gaa
eral Forrest bid arrived aod taken oom-
msnd. He admitted that a number of
the garrison in making a tosh for a gnu.
boat bad been fl-ed at and killed ; bat if
any had been killed in violation of the
usages of war the moat starching exami
nation on tbe part of tbe OoogrrssioDal
Committee bad been unable to fix any
responsibility for it, at least on tbe gen
eral officers in command.
He denied that any wonnded men had
been burned up in tee quarters that had
been eel on fire the morning af'er the
capture of the fert. He asserted that
forty per cent of the garrison were saved
wholly uatouohed. Part of the Federal
troops had run out ot the foit, end nearly
all of those were killed or wounded; bat
a large number of tbs garrison (meetly
white men) had remained, and had
gathered around Genet si Forrest ad
himself for protection, and bad been pro
tected.
As to the Confederates taking advan
tage of tbe flag of truce, in order to
gain a better position, that s'atement
was not trne—he said so in via icaii m
of bis dead commander—for “glory is
tbe eoldier’e pride; tbe soldier’s wealth
is hotor.”
In reply to questions Jby Hawley,
of Connecticut, he stated that the gar
rison of Fort Pillow numbered 577 men,
of whom about 40 per cent wero saved,
that about SOO wero killed and wouuded,
and about 250 on the Confederate side.
Remarks wero made by Garfield as to
the impolicy of re-opening the subject
with an intimation that the officers were
not so responsible as bad at first been
euppoeed. Bnt the general impression
at the *imo bad ba»n strong hened by an
order issued about G weeks previously by
take charge of such grievances brought Qentfra i Forreat that if .he Fort were
»^i ay Jd,®urrended, the garrison should be
their power for redress of the earn*, and
to adopt eneb legal and proper expedients
as they may jndgo necessary for the fu
ture prevonuoa of grievances of like na
ture. . ..

Governor Foote, to the effect t hat- otht-r
causes than those named in the teeoln

trell made tbe ooadading speech for ths

theoiy that it was Alston who pursued
Cox and bronght upon tbe latter the ur
gent and pressing danger which would
jnstifv him in taking the life of Alston.
Ex Judge Hopkins concluded for tho
r>tate in a threo hour speech, embodying
a complete statement of the facta of the
ease, and pressed for a verdict ot uncon

and the court room is full at 10 p. m.,
awaiting the verdiet, which is expeetpd
soon. Cox is anxious. His wife and
sister are his devotad companions.

Atlanta,Ga., ieay 7 —The jury in the
Cox case were ont au night, and cams in
at noon to-day to t<e recharged in full.
At a quarter to four p. m. they ctme in
and announced that they had agreed
apon a vt rd>ct. It was defined to cor*
rect an informality, and was then read as
tollowr: • We, the jury, Sad the prisoner
guilty, and recommend that he be pun
ish- d by imprisonment for life.”
Cox received the verdict withcalmn sa
and etoii-iam, having evidently, nerved
himself for the worst. Hts wife, on bear
ing tbe words bo tatal to her hopes, sat
for a moment trembling and then rushed
for the op ;n window near by for the pur
pose of throwing herself to the ground
below. Sho was wild with grief As
she reached tbe window she waa caught
by Cox who held her fast. Sae threw
her arms around his neck and dang to
him wildly, exclaiming, “On, my God, oh
my darling.” Her ebrieks were heart-
rend.ng and the occupants of tee crowd*
ed room could not reatr-m their t -are or
pity. Cox used all bis power to ca<m her
and finally soothed her grief until only
her deep morns broke noon the solemn
stillness.
Judge Hillyer sentr need Cox to be
“confined in the penitentiary or soon
other place as the Governor may direct,
at bard labor for and daring his natural
life.” General G-trtrell gave nonce that
the defrcaa would make a motion
for a new trial and praying for a writ ot
enper8edeas. Tbe execution of the sen
tence was thereupon etayo I twenty days.
This pet alty is vntnali> tbe extreme
of the law in this Suite, as a law passed
