NEW TREATY SIGNED.
Agroomont with Spain to Secure Cuba and Porto Rico Products.
HE SPANISH GOVERNMENT WITH US.
Sugar, Molasses, Collee anil A1 ii11«! live by .A merle Artlele*, l-'lour L.xet
The treaty contains two distinct provisions: 1. For the transitory schedule from September 1, 1V.H, to.luly 1, 2. For a definite schedule of poods to be reciprocally exchanped after that date.
The products to be imported from Cuba and Porto Rico are those provided in section i» of the McKinley act, viz.: Sugar, molasses. coffee ami hides. The products and manufactures of the United States, which are to be admitted free, or sit preatly reduced rates, ure set forth in h»np schedules.
The formal correspondence between the two countries which preceded this proclamation is of the most friendly character. The details of the negotiation have been under the super* vision of lion. John W. Foster, former minister to Spain. It is to be noticed that there arc some restrictions, due to the international obligations of Spain and some conditions imposed by the provincial laws and customs, and others out of repard for the agricultural interests of Spain. The condition as to United States flour is one of these.
The Spanish minister in his concluding communication says: "The benefit in the reduction of duties granted to American wheat ami wheat Hour shall not take effect until the first day of January, lS'.U. Flour shall be excluded from said reduction, and shall not therefore share in it, which, on its departure from the po ts of the union destined to those of Cuba and Porto Rico, may be favored with drawbacks or other tariff advantages."
This restriction was deemed necessary by the cabinet of Spain in order that the Spanish farmer and miller might have some slight advantage over the United States in the matter of export. Hour. Cuba has been the chief market for Spanish Hour and it has been made so «i\ account of tariff negotiations which discriminated in favor of Spanish Hour. American manufacturers, by better methods of manutacturc, better (quality of produce and cheaper transportation, may be able to overcome the slight discrimination that is still retained in favor of the Spanish farmer and miller.
The maintenance of the municipal duties is another reservation. As to these the Spanish minister says: "Respect inir the North American articlesof fo«d. drink and fuel specified in the annexed transitory schedule, which were imported into said islands, the government of Spain. with restricting, the rights of the municipal .councils, will- .seek to have the latter impose upon thorn no greater municipal duties than those which national product pay. and that they shall not materially increase the price of said articles."
This means that the '.government of Spain will not-attempt to abolish these ancient municipal duties but the ..influence of the Spanish cabinet will be everted to'prevent-these'.local taxes from adding to the-price, of the imports.

of which 11was in depository banks. £P,i,:»l 1,7.V was subsidiary coin, and SMiVJTT was in minor coin ami fractional currency. The reduction in the public debt during July, treasury ollicials estimate, will be about UOt). Customs receipts (luring the month will aggregat.e about internal revenue receipts about Si l,,*i()0,(M)0, and miscellaneous receipts about S4,0(10,000. This with

of repay
ments will swell the receipts £-10.000,* 000, against which there will be SJW,500,000 of expenditures, including $13,000,000 for pensions. This data points to an increase in treasury cash of about 4,500,000 since July or the equivalent of a reduction of the debt to that amount. Since July 21, when the first shipment was made, the treasury department has shipped about $'..',500,000 in small notes, fives, tens ami twenties, to Chicago and Cincinnati to meet the demand to move crops.

He was a negro lar above the usual intelligence of his race. The warfare which existed for a couple of years between these two political factions exterminated whole families and scores of men were murdered, llut Caldwell is the only person who met a judicial death on account of it.
He killed Mr. J. AI. Shamblen on the night of July UE lSSS. Dr. Shamblen was a prominent jaybird. or democrat. Caldwell was a woodpecker, or republican. On the night of the assassination Dr. Shamblen was sitting at a table in his home holding family prayer, with his wife and family surrounding him, when lie was shot through a window. No one saw Caldwell shoot the doctor ami the evidence was purely circumstantial.

Md.,'Aug. I.—A reporter
called on Cardinal Gibbons in relation to the controversy between the bureau of Catholic Indian missions and the commissioner of Indian affairs. The cardinal said: "I have given the subject of the Catholic Indian bureau In Us relation to the interior department much anxious thought during the last two weekrf aud have taken all the Information that could lc obtained from the best and most trustworthy soureos. "I am now happy to be in a position to communicate facts and collusions, which ought to dispel the b'ars and encourage the hopes of those intimately connected with the Catholic Indians o! the United States. Undue importance, I .mi now aatlstled. has been attached to the recent controversy between the commissioner of Indian aflairs. Hon. T. .1. Marfan, aud th'4 bureau of Catholic Indian missions. "Mr. Slornan has thought it advisable for the more elective expedition of business in his department to have all contracts for schools sinned by the several superintendents of such scUools rather than by thedirector of the Catholic bureau, as heretofore practiced. 1 do uot see how t.his chan^re'ean in any manner aCert the real interest of the Indians aud therefore it ib a point which should not disturb us.
Catholics have many reasons to thank God for the blessing's they enjoy as citizens of the United States. It is but just to''say in eonelusion that the bureau of Catholic Indian missions has never obtained for itself or any one of its employes one cent of the government money. The. cheek* it has been receivinu fri*ti the treasury of the United States were immediately indorsed over to the superintendents of the respective schools. Its own 'expenses have been entirely defrayed by private contributions."

ror has been added to the late list of railroad accidents in Ohio. At about 10 o'clock Friday morning passenger train No. 4 on the Ilellaire, Zanesville & Cincinnati narrow gauge railroad left the track 8 miles south of Ilellaire, two ears being overturned and dragged some distance by the engine. There were seventy passengers on the train, and the two ears that turned over into the ditch were crowded with well-known people of that section. When they left the track some one cried out that everybody should cling to their seats, but the shock was so great many were hurled from one side to the other, those not badly injured being terribly shaken up. Assistance was soon at hand from other passengers and the trainmen, and when all were finally taken out of the wrecked cars it was found that fourteen people had been injured, four of them seriously and one fatally.
The train was running at the least calculation at the rate of 35 miles an hour, and as it reached a curve the cars were noticed to swav violently, and unheeding the cries for passengers to keep their seats a rush was made for the doors. Many of the frightened passengers had reached the platform when the cars jumped tho rails, and when they turned over in another moment these were burled into the ditch in an indiscriminate mass of men. women and children. The list of the injured is as follows:
Irwin. John, of Hethal, O., head crushed and Hcalp injured. McKlroy, William, head hurt and internal injuries.
McKlroy, Charles, leg broken and otherwise bruised. Morris, .lohn, bngsngemnster, hurt internally badly bruised and will probably die.
