Esther and Nathan Frame, two noted revivalists of the Friends' church, are in a big revival at Anderson.

The Red Men's Dramatic Club, which played the "Waif of New Orleans" at Glenwood Saturday evening, report that a big rain struck the town about time for the entertainment to take place, which kept a large number of people from coming out. As it wa3 there was a good audience to see the play, which was highly appreciated. The company did not lose anything as more than enough was taken in 1 pay the expenses, which was about $40. Had it not been for the rain the Red Men would have had a good "wad" to put in the taeasurery.

Elder Covert, of Anderson, has undertaken a war against the doctrines of the spiritualists there. He has leased a church near their camp-meeting ground", at Chesterfield.

Ketarned to Jail.

Last night at 10 o'clock three men from Fortville returned Freeman Shull to the county jail. It will be remembered that Shull was in jail for several weeks on the ground that he was insane. He was refused admittance at the asylum at Indianapolis and was liberated from our jail about two weeks ago. Shull is undoubtedly unbalanced and the people of his vicinity are afraid of him. There surely ought to be some safe place for such men as Shull, but it seems there is not.

MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR AT HAVANA

A Closed Railway Car Arrives at Havana and No One Allowed to See Its Contents. Some Say It Holds the lioily of His Son. .Filibustering Expeditions—lz-.test .Reports From the Cubun War.

HAVANA, July 22.—Further details are constantly coming to light [concerning the action between the insurgents and the column of Marshal Martinez de Campos, between Manzanillo and Bavamo, on July 11. The more that is known of the action the more it is seen that the captain-general and his forces were in a position of extreme peril, and it was only by the personal leadership and military skill of Marshal de Campos himself that the day was saved and made an especially glorious action for the Spanish army.

Marshal Martinez de Campos left Manzanillo July

11

for Bayamo, ac­

companied by 50 cavalry. He arrived at Voguitas, about half way between the two towns, at 2 o'clock in the afternoon and received an enthusiastic reception. He united the column of Santociides with 1,100 troops of the regiment of Isabe Catolica and three companies of Baz Seccion of engineers and guerillas. In Carruana he received notice of the presence of the insurgents to the number of 5,000 in Yalcnzuela, near Datil and G-ueycito. The commanders were Antonio Maceo, Rabi and Masso.

At 1) o'clock the insurgents were seen on the farm of Sail Francisco. The troops advancing were commanded by General Santociides. He was at the front and received two shot wounds. Still lie ordered the advance to continue, when he received a ball in the head. Captain General de Campos then took command. Sabana Perulejo with 2,000 of the insurgent cavalry charged upon the Spanish forces. General Campos immediately formed a square, making a great heroic defense against the fierce attack. He ordered mules and horses killed, and with them and with the baggage of the troops he formed barricades to obstruct the insurgent cavalry charges. The latter were not able to resist the firing of the Manser rifles in the hands of the Spaniards and commenced to waver. General Campos' military experience admonished him to take advantage of this weakness, and he immediately charged with cavalry, while the infantry attacked with bayonets and routed the insurgents, who divided into bands and dispersed.

General Campos made £his way forward and arrived at 9 o'clock at night at Bayamo, where he was enthusiastically received. The troops lost besides General Santociides, 13 officers dead and wounded and 70 soldiers dead and about 100 wounded. The insurgents lost 500 dead or wounded. Brigadier Rabi, Colonel Machado and General Moncada were killed. Among the wounded were Captain Ramirez and two chiefs of a lower grade.

STORY TOLD BY PASSENGERS:

General Campos Either Dead or Badly Wounded. TAMPA, Fla., July 22.—Passengers

from Cuba and private letters announce that General Campos is wounded and besieged in Bayamo. The Spanish papers state that besides Santociides various other officers also fell, and it is rumored ^hat one of them is the son of Campos. Passengers claim that a railway car arrived at Villaveuve station, in Havana, closed so that no one knew its contents. Some say that this ear contains Campos, and others maintain that it contains the body of his son.

The Spanish press gives no details of the encounter, and this makes the Cubans believe that Santociides' body was left in the pos,-jssion of the insurgents in Santa Clara.

An encounter is reported in Sandiego del Valle, in Vista Hermosa, near Santos Spiritus, between 107 Spaniards commanded by Major Arminan and numerous insurgent forces commanded by Dr. Zayas. After an hour and a half the insurgents surrounded the Spanish forces. The official report mentions the bravery of the Cuban forces, the first time this has ever been done. The details are not given, so the losses are unknown.

General Gomez insists on his orders prohibiting the entrance of provisions into Puerto Principe. One of his oiiicers was hung for disobeying these orders. On this account large numbers are leaving the city.

The Spanish government is inclined no. to sc^d any reinforcements to Cuba until October.

The review of the Spanish volunteers in Havana will be held July 24. The heads of General Sanguily and Guanalberto will be demanded.

TAKEN BACK TO PORT.

The Steamer O^orge W. Childs Held at Jacksonville, Florida. JACKSONVILLE, Fla., July 22.—The

boat George W. Childs cleared Saturday for New York and sailed yesterday morning. Immediately upon her departure Win. Lynch, one of her seamen, made oath before Collector Browne as to her late doings in these waters, and stated that there were wages due him and that the captain had sailed to give him the slip and beat him out of his wages. He stated that the Childs took on 53 Cubans at a place in the West Indies, with arms and ammunition, and proceeded to the coast of Cuba. After several unsuccessful attempts to land the party they were brought back and landed on one of the Florida keys near there. Then she came here and coaled and went to Jamaica.

Upon hearing the statement Collector Browne ordered a revenue cutter to detain the Childs. The cutter immediately gave chase and fired a blank cartridg3, which caused the Childs to heave to, and the cutter returned to port with her. The Childs is held for not having a passenger list for the party that landed on the keys. Lynch will •robably libel the tug for wages due

FILIBUSTERING EXPEDITION

A Steamer Sails From New York W Inch Creates Suspicion. NEW YOKK, July 22.—The single

ecrew steamer Cauca cleared this port for sea yesterday afternoon bound on what ia believed to be a Cuban filibustering expedition. She flew the flag of the United States of Colombia at the peak and the French flag at the stern. She is commanded by Captain Berniphol.

The Cauca got her clearance papers for Carthagena through the clearinghouse last Friday. Her agents are Falian & Mendy of 5-1 and 56 Stone street. Her owner's are not known. The vessel fitted out at Pier 4, Erie basin, last wvek.

The supposition is that she v^ill lay to somewhere between this and one of the Cuban ports and take on men.

The Cauca was formerly known as the George B. Sandt, a «»as such was engaged in the fishing t-i\ v.

DURANT'S TRIAL b^GUN.

The Alleged Murderer

Once

ho

31ore Iii-ought

Into Court.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 22.—Interest in the horrible Emanuel church murders, which shocked the whole world, has been revived od iy by the beginning of Theodore Durant's trial. Last April San Francisco was startled by the discovery of the outraged bodies of Blanche Lamoiit and Minnie Williams, the swo young members of the congregation, Suspicion pointed to Theodore Durant, a young medical student and a member of the cliLU'eii.

At the coroner's inquest and preliminary examination id was shown that- Durant hai been attentive to both girls that tiie day Blanche Lamont dispeared

iiau been in

her

company,

and that on that afternoon lie was seen in church greatly excited in a disheveled condition, it- was also shown that- he had made an appointment to meet Minnie Williamson tne niglit she was murdered, and witnesses will testify tnat they saw two people resembling Miss Williams and Durant enter the church that evening. Miss Williams' purse was also found in Durant's possession after iie had been arrested.

Durant and his attorneys say that an alibi can be proved that will shatter the case as soon as the taking of testimony begins. It is anticipated that there will be considerable difficulty in securing 12 men in San Francisco competent under the law to decide Durant's fate.

BOTH SIDES ARMING.

A Conflict Expected Iietween Cattle and Sheep Men in Wyoming. OMAHA, July 22.—A special to The

Bee from Rawlins, Wy., says: The trouble between the cattle and sheep men in Routt county, Colo., is yet settled by any means. The cat.!To men are determined to prevent the sheep from grazing on through the summer range in the mountain foothills, while the sheep men are just as determined to occupy their old ranges. Several oi tlie largest slieepowners, being among the oldest settlers in the county, claim their most bitter enemies among the cattle men are comparatively new comers, who are small farmers and own but few cattle, many only a couple of milch cows.

The Bee representatives were informed today by a very reliable man, who had just come in from the South, that the cattle men have staked a dead line, and threaten to kill all sheep that pass beyond, and that they are patrolling the country. The sheep men say that they will occupy their former summer ranges, peaceably, if possible, forcibly, if driven to it. Both parties are said to be arming a conflict may be expected at any time, unless there are concessions on both sides.

LUMBERMEN ROBBED.

Two of the Highwaymen Shot, but the Other One Gets Away. MEK':OUGE, La.. July 22.—Saturday

was pay day at the Morehouse Lumber company's mill at Gallion, and after the laborers had received their wages, several who resided several miles distant from the mill were returning homo in a wago'i, when they were held up by three highwaymen who proceeded to fleece them.

While the money was changing hands a sheriff's posse, which had discovered tiie plans of the robbers, came up and the latter began firing. One Charles Stuart was kilied by the posse and Jack Coleman was mortally wounded. One other, Con Aldridge, is still at large. A posse with bloodhounds is hunting him. The robbers ail reside in this parish, and are considered bad characters.

SHOOTING AFFRAY.

Trouble Again Breaks Out in the Toledo Polish Settlement. TOLEDO, July 22.—A shooting affray

occurred Saturday night in the Polish settlement in which Frank Nowitzki received wounds from which he died yesterday evening. The trouble is the result of a long stand feud between two factions of the church which was intensified by the discharge of a school teacher by the priest on the ground of incompetency.

His friends took up the fight and trouble similar that of year ago is anticipated. Already rioting and fighting has begun among the poles aud the police are powerless to restrain them. Trouble is feared and an extra detail of officers are guarding that portion of the city.

Traffic Interrupted on the Louisville and Nashville Railroad. LOUISVILLE, July 22.—Tunnel No. 3,

on the Louisville and Nashville railroad, situated between Turner's and English, 45 miles east of here, caught fire about midnight Saturday night and is still burning. The lire was caused by sparks from an engine igniting the timbers. The tunnel is 900 feet long and will probably have to be rebuilt.

The end toward Cincinnati was dynamited yesterday, and it is thought that 150 feet of it may be saved. All of the passenger and freight trains on the main line are compelled to go by way of Lexington, Ky. The loss will be quite heavy. -'j
