Tie Bpaaiah Keplv. Tbe Puis correspondent of the London Timet says: The Spanish Commissioner! renHed as follows:
It is impossible for tu either to accept or refuse the condition the United Sta'es impose. We do not desire to declare a
formal rapture, because it would oblige Knrone to run the risk of beholding the
humiliating spectacled an American fleet bombarding .European ports. We do not intend to furnish America with a pretext for the realization of such an act; bat we sannot subscribe to dictates which are
not in conformity with the stipulations adopted in the common agreement that terminated the war. We withdraw because we do not feel we bare 'the right to sign the abdication so imposed upon us.
Expense Is Too Heavy, The Navy Department has practically decided to abandon wrecking operations under existing contracts on the Spanish cruisers Cristabol Colon, Vizosya and Almo-ante Oquendo, near Santiago, which hare become onerously expensive to the Government, and to approve the recommendation in part at least of Naval Con trustor Bobsoa and other officers who nave been superintending the work of rescuing these vessels. The department will send eable disMb tn riant. Colbv M. Chester, senior

A special from Akron, Ohio, says: A large sum of money has been discovered at tbe late home of Oscar Osborne, who was murdered in Richfield a few weeks ago. It is said tbe murdered man had confided to a neighbor the hiding place of the money, and recently search was made, with the result that sums aggregating 110,000 was found. The theory is ' now advanced that the strap found about Osborne's neck was used to choke and strangle him to induee him to tell where the money was hidden. It is known that Osborne bad secreted large sums somewhere about his place.

the postmasters are American citizens, but in unimportant interior towns we ha ve appointed native postmasters. A native postmaster is the proudest mortal alive.

A message from Republic camp, on the north half of the Colville reservation, Washington, says that the miners have cross-cuLtwenty-four feet of ore in the big ledge on the 430 foot level and the drills were still in ore. The news ef the big strike has spread to the surrounding mining districts and the excitement is intense. Conservative mining men say that such an ore chute with such value 300 a ton is unprecedented in the mining history of the continent. The great chote has now been proved for a depth of 430 feet. It is nowhere less than five feet wide and the width runs as high ns 25 feet. Controltn the crenernl rule in gold mining.

Il irding, who hud followed the foreigners through several cities and finally effected tapir capture in St. Iouis after they had eluded a score of operatives who were on their trail. Wilt expressed relief that he was through with being a fugitive and an outlaw. He said that the hounding to which he had been subjected since he left his native land had no worked on his mind that even a rest behind prison bars was a relief. Wilt's young wife, whom he married about the time bo left Europe, declares she was ignorant of the cause of their sudden departure for America and that she knew nothing of the alleged defalcation of her husband until Sergt. Harding's steel handcuffs were snapped upon his wrists. In Wilt's possession was found $5,521, and he is sjiifl to have considerable more of the $4!,tHHl

Ezhtv.iwi Who Went from Qlouoiter,
Mm, Fall to Return.
The end of the Gloucester, Mass., fishing season is at hand, and with it is counted
the profit and loss and the sacrifice of life
The reckoning for the year is fourteen ves-
sMa n total loss and eighty-two men
drowned in the nursuit of tbe fisheries,
The losses will approximate $100,000. The teVrible gales which raged on the banks
in October. 1887. are undoubtedly rcspon
sihle for the loss of three vessels and their entire crews, while the series of gales
which prevailed during the winter also brought the fate of many a Gloucester tishermnn. The proportion of those lost in dories astray from their vessels is not so
large as formerly. BISHOPS ASK $20,000,000.

It was well known there that such would

Much Oram 8ti ppid Abroad. Bradstreet's reports on the condition of
business in this way: "Irregularity in
prices and trade movements has been rath
er more marked this week tnau ror some time past, but measured by all the usual standards of business developed the situa
tion is one of exceptional activity and even
strength. The active foreign demand at advancing prices for American cereals and
their products appeared to have culminat
ed early in the week in a virtual war-
scare' market, in which the highest prices reached since early in August were recorded. The reaction shown, however, has been a small one. Evidences of reaction
In prices are not confined to wheat, but extend to lard and coffee, among food products, Bessemer pig iron, lead and cotton, while most other cereals, pork and beef, copper and print cloths, have remained steady and unchanged. The industrial situation bas many points of interest in It. The cotton goods trade is closely following the workings of the plan or restriction adopted by the Fall River print cloth mills. Sales of wool are of increased volume. The manufactured product remains slow of sale at first hands, but advices of good retail buying are more numerous. The iron and steel situation continues without much change. In other industries tho report Is generally of plenty of work. Wheat, including flour, shipments for the week aggregate 5,500,991 bushels, against 4,582,773 bushels last week. Corn exports for the week aggregate 2,424,370 bushels, against 297,101 bushels last week." Oppssition In Rubbsr Business. George A. Lewis ot Naugatnck, Conn., president of the Goodyear Rubber Company, has tendered his resignation. This !s the consummation of the biggest deal in the history of the rubber business in this country. Levi T. Warner, general superintendent of the company, has also resigned, and he takes with him his brother, Abner, shipping agent for the company, and John D. Rodenbacb, general manager.

Commissioner of Pensions Fnys Exact
Number Was 2,000.
Two thousand nine hundred and six iivea
were lost in the hue war with Spain, ac
cording to Pension Commissioner H. Clay
Evans. Of this number 2,000 died in camps. The statistics of hit office, he also says, show that the percentage of death in camps from disease was much less than
during the civil war. He says that dur
ing the rebellion 40,000 men were killed
in battle and 300,000 perished In camps
and prisons.
From May 1 to Sept. 80. 1808, the total
deaths were 2.90ft, of which 107 were offi
cers. At Santiago the loss of life was 222
privates and twenty-two officers. At Car
denas one officer was killed, and siuce the first battle on Cuban soil sixty-one men hare died of wouuds received while in service. The loss of life resulting from tbe destruction of the battleship Maine will be placed on the same basis as mirtallty
in battle. CHILDREN GIVE LIBERALLY.

THE SITUATION AT VIRDEN.
Soldiers Are Returning Home ana
Conditions Becoming Normal. There have been no important develop
ments lately in the coal mining situation
t Virden, 111., and affairs are monotonous
ly dragging along. The company s worus arc at a standstill, and it is thought that no further attempts will be made to im
port negro miners.
The most exciting incident oi tne guua-
tiou since the fight of Oct. 12 was the de-
rture to Chicago of Manager trca .
.ukins. He was conducted to the train
outside the stockade by n large body of
soldiers and hastily put aboard. It was foarel that an attack would be made upon blm, Hut none was attempted, and. according to a dispatch, the community breathed
sieh of relief when tbe train neanug mm
to th? general offices of the company in
Chicego pulled out of the town. Earlier
In the day Lukins find given a oouu m $1,000 for his future apiiearance on the charge of conspiracy to murder. The same charges have been made against T. C.
Loucks of Chicago, president or tne company, and other officers.
Meant me the situation bas tonea down
to almost normal conditions, and many of
he soldiers have been sent home. J lie
services of all of them will perhaps be dispensed with soon. The future developments in the tronhles between the miners and the coal company will likely lie in the courts of Macoupin County.
APPLES WILL BE A LUXURY.
Crop In the United States the Small
est on Record. The Orange Judd Farmer says: '"The
apple crop of the United States is smaller
than it has been since rename statistics have been collected. The total supply from the 1898 crop of the United States is 21,700,000 barrels, compared with something over 40,000.000 Inst year and 70,000,000 in the record breaking crop of 1890. The failure is widespread, reaching
from the Pacific coast to Maine, and in
none of the States docs the output of fruit
approach an average. In the groat apple States of the West the crop is almost un absolute failure, although the situation in Michigan is better than elsewhere, that
State having about two-thirds of tne bumper crop of ''0(1. New York has only
jne-tiftu of a full crop."
Advices from Ijondon Hay Hint Great ftrilain's secret is out at last in the opiun:i of well informed men of affairs who
save been keeping close track of the re--cnt extraordinary preparations for war. Of far more importance tliiin the possibility of a little brush with France, which would lc a repetition of the SpanishAmerican wur, is the declaration that Knirhni.l is about to take the hull by the horns and proclaim protectorate over all jf Egypt. This is the theory that Is now
m rn!!y accepted as being the true solu
tion of Ihe problem, and It is tne omy one
u,i which the remarkable activity of tho war olliee nml the admiralty can be satisfactorily accounted for.
All probability of trouble with franco j vanished with the receipt of positive statements from Paris that Major Marclmnd will 1 nicoii.litioiially withdruwu from I'asbodr. but the war preparations hnve been continued since then with more energy than lieforc. The proclamation of Egypt ns n part ot Ihe B.-iiish empire would set all Europe by the ears and would undoubtedly result in war were it not known that England was prepared and hulking for trouble. There is reason to believe that the German Emperor abandoned his trip to Egypt so as tn be out nf the country when the pnielaination was issued. He is thought to be fully aware of England's plans. The Itritish naval and military preparations are being pushed to an extent without precedent siuce the Crimean war. England was about to declare a protectorate in 1884. urged to do so by Prince Bisimirck, nud it was only at the last minute, when all the preparations had been
made, that the scheme was ubandoued for n more favorable opportunity. That
opportunity seems now at hand.
England's occupation of Egypt is based
in midlil and has frequently been de
nounced by -the khedive himself, by his
suzerain, the Biiltnti nf Turkey, and by France as illegal, while the other powers
have quietly tolerated the act. EN bOFTHE llKPOsTFlON.
