"Wln the mistake was discovered the troops left the fort to secure the body. The Insurgents rushed In, securing the arms and ammunition, and then retired. . .

IL Further details received from La Resbalosa, near which place a mixed train of passenger and freight cars was attacked by the Insurgents, who threw a dynamite fchell between the cars, seriously injuring1 five of the passengers and more or less Injuring all the others, show that two of tha passengers each lost a leg and both hands; the leg of another on bas been amputated, and three others are in danger of death. Two of the wounded passengers hvo already succumbed to their Injuries. The greatest indignation prevails against these insurgents who have been guilty of this inhuman act The Insurgents have also partially destroyed with dynamite an iron railroad bridge at Camajuanl and another at Tulnlc, province of Santa Clara. Private letters received here from the Vegulta district of ilanzanillo. state that the insurgent leader, Itabi, has issued a manifesto to his followers placing before them the advantage of peace over armed revolution. Ex-Queen Isabella, replying to the greeting which Captain General Martinez de Campos cent her on her birthday, has tent hira the following message: "Thank you more than ever for your heartfelt congratulations. You are aware that 1 follow you with my heart praying God to protect you and giv you victory." Alberto Bezabarreo, an American citizen, has been made a political prisoner at Llbertad.

EpanUrdM Exrlterf Over Alleged Alvlcea from Minister De Lome. WASHINGTON'. Oct. 11. The following cablegram was received from Madrid today: "It is stated on the best of authority that the government of the United States has notified the Spanish minister at Washington. Senor De Lome, that there is a necessity that Spain should act promptly in her efforts to crush the insurrection in Cuba. Th news has caused quite a sensation here." State Department officials refuse to either affirm of deny the above report, though their manner would Indicate disapproval of its accuracy. It is believed quite probable that representations may have been made to Spain of the wisdom of aggressive and active operations against the Cuban insurgents, but it is thought the United States government did not make the suggestions axd that if made they came from Minister De Lome and were based on his personal views cf the situation and on his observation ' of the trend of sentiment in the United States and his knowledge of the purpose of the friends .of the insurgents to press' their cause vigorously soon after the assembling of Congress. It is apparent that the Cuban Junta Uoe3 not intend to urge recognition of the insurgents ls belligerents prior to the opening of Congress and dally events point quite as strongly to a determination to force tho question on that the legislative channel affords the most practicable route to the accomplishment of something ia behalf of Cuban indfpendence, the executive branch of tho government, in the nature of things, being more constrained In its action. It Is learned that Senor De Lome, the Spanish minister, had a short Interview with the Secretary of State yesterday and in the course of the conversation something might have been said by the minister, perhaps in answer to the Secretary's Inquiry, in the nature of a statement that operations in Cuba would be conducted with greater vigor hereafter. As the President must certainly make some reference to the Insurrection in his annual message to Congress when it meets in. December it would be but natural that Secretary Olney, on whom he must rely for his information, should take steps to gather data on which to base a judgment of probaMe future events. It may be set down as beyond belief that Secretary Olney has made any statement to the Spanish minister in the nature of a threat to intervene between the combatants in Cuba at this stage, for this would amount to a reversal of the policy of this government in such matters. While it ls true that Resident Grant did. as indicated in his message to Congress, entertain a belief that intervention in the then progressing rebellion in Cuba would be justitlable, it is also true that this view never was acceptable to m mm , m Aw&raed tlljttct Honors World Pair.

Secretary Fish, and it has not secured the adherence of international lawyers. The whole weight of authority Is decidedly adverse to the assertion by a neutral nation of a right to say when war between two combatants has progressed to a point where It must be stopped. It may be recalled that some such proposition was made during the last stages of the Chlno-Japanese war, but it never went further than the exercise of the good offices of the interested nations to bring about peace, which function is entirely distinct from direct intervention. The question is also separate from that of the recognition of the belligerency of the insurgents, which, according to our policy and practice, must be determined purely by the facts in each case. It is pointed out here, also that the circumstances at present are different from those surrounding the last Cuban rebellion, when President Grant took his stand. Then the rebellion had dragged along tor nearly ten years, while the present insurrection has been in progress little more than a year. Whatever may have been the inspiring cause to Spanish activity against the insurgentswhether Minister De Lome's representations or the previously formed determination of the heads of the Spanish governmentit is known officially that Spain is about to open a campaign of far greater energy than any thus far taken. The wet season- has prevented the movement of troops and the maintenance of an aggressive campaign, but the dry season begins about three weeks hnee, and this will be the signal, it is said, for extended movements. A cordon consisting of, a double line of gunboats will surround tne Island to prevent the lanuing of arms or ammunition for the insurgents, and without arms from the outside it is believed they soon will be helpless. The new boats about to arrive in Cuba will not be far short of twenty. Several of them were recently sent from the United States. About twelve were built In England and are now on their way. Several more were constructed in Spain. They are very small, not much larger than a steam yacht, but are wel' armed and are of such light draught that they can run in the keys that surround the bays. Thy will form the inner cordon around the island. Outside will be the second cordon, made up of tne Conde de Venadito and other large ships which Spain has In Cuban waters. With the island thus cut off from without. General Campos will push the fighting from within. It is expected by Spanish officials that this forward movement will change the entire aspect of the conflict, from one of minor skirmishes to extensive battles. The sentiment among Spanish authorities is that a decisive forward movement is essential and the coming campaign is reried on to meet fully the requirements of the situation. A3IEIUCAS "WARNED.

31 r. Harmon Snys It In Wrong to Express Sympathy with Cnba. WASHINGTON, Oct. 11. Attorney-general Harmon, within the last few weeks, has received a large number of letters making inquiry as to the rights of. American citizens, under international law, with respect to expressing their sympathy with Cuiba, either materially or otherwise, in her present struggle. Following is a reply to one of these letters, and is substantially the same as all of the replies sent: T hasten to say In reply to your letter that the organization of a military force of any sort in the United States in aid of the Insurrection In Cuba would be in direct violation . of Section 5286 of the Revised Statutes of the United States, which provides for a fine not exceeding $3,ouo and imprisonment of not more than three years for every person who in any way takes part in such expedition or enterprise to be car-rit-d on from thence against any prince, state, etc., 'with whom the United States is at peace.' As the United States Is not only at peace with Spain, but has with her a treaty whereby the extradition of prisoners and many other benefits are secured, it behooves all American citizens who have respect for the laws and obligations of their country and regard for its honor to observe this law in spirit as well as in letter, to be neutral In word as well as in dewd. While there is no law to prevent American citizens from speaking their Ventlments on any subject, singly or together; taking such action as you mention in your letter would. In my judgment, be discourteous In the highest degree to a friendly power and tend to embarrass tho government in carrying out its determination faithfully to execute tho laws and fulfill its treaty obligations." WASHINGTON CHOSEN KriSC01AL,IAXS "WI LI 1 1 OLD THEIR NEXT CONVENTION THERE. Primate Proposition Defeated Vr the Deputies Another Illshop for JapanOther Religions Bodies. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Oct. 11. Both the House of Deputies and tho House of Bishops of tho Episcopalian convention have agreed on Washington as the place for holding. the next convention, and one fight of the convention ia settled. There was an echo of last night's lively session of the board of missions when the deputies met to-day. George C. Thomas, of. Pennsylvania, moved that when the board of missions sit this evening It be ' with closed doors. Governor Prince, of New Mexico, raised the point of order that the two houses had nothing toc do with the board of missions, which was an independent body and could not be dictated to. Chairman Dlx coincided with this view and ruled tho resolution out' Rev. Dr. Henry L. Jones, of Central Pennsylvania, moved that the convention adjourn on Oct. 18, and the resolution was referred to the committee on unfinished business. The trouble of last night then came up again, in the shape of a resolution offered by Dr. Davenport, of Tennessee, defining a quorum of the board of missions. The resolution provided that a majority of all the members would be necessary to do business, and that votes should be taken by dioceses. This was adopted as an amendment to the canons. Dr. Dlx then stated that he had been In error in ruling on the Thomas resolution, and its mover brought it up again. He thought after reading the head lines and other statements in the morning papers there was abundant reason for executive sessions. But the motion was lost by the narrow margin of 133 noes to 123 yeas. Dr. Fairbanks, of Florida, wanted all outsiders excluded from the body of the house at tonight's session, but he was voted down. A message from the House of Bishops an. nounced the selection of Louisville as the place for the next convention, and asked for a conference committee, to which the deputies assented. There was evidence of a restive feeling in the House of Deputies over the constitutional revision controversy In the resolution presented by Itev. Dr. John & Lindsay, of Boston, calling for tho complete report of the commission by 2 p. m. to-day.. Dean Hoffman reported that dally sessions of the commissions were being held, and a report would be presented at the earliest possible moment probably Monday. The Dean added that the commission, he thought, did not expect the absolute adoption of a new constitution at this session, but hoped to get the matter in such shape that it might be finally disposed of at the next convention. Dr. Lindsay was willing to make Monday the limit. In the discussion that ensued Dr. McKim. of Washington, compared the new constitution to Jonah, and wittily advised that it would bo better for the convention and better for the constitution to cast it overboard. "What have we accomplished In a week's discussion T" he asked. "We have pluralized a word and mangled a definition of the church," whereat there was great laughter. Tha resolution, as amended, was then adopted. Section 4 was then taken up, anc! Judge Bennett's substitute, rive sections, vas laid on the table 153 to 121. The Deputies this afternoon reversed rome of their former actions when they got down to voting by dioceses. A majority of the Individuals in the envention did not necessarily rule then, and the laity had more show than during the previous debates. The voting was against conferring with the bishops on the first six sections of Article j. x no nrst two were concurred in.' except that the word synod" was changed to "convention" in designating the triennial meeting. The fight came on the third section, which contained the term "primate." This section was changed by eliminating the objectionable clause. The vote on the question of a primate was as follows: Clerical delegations Yeas. 31; nays, 16; divided, 2. Lay degutes Yeas, 20; nays, 21; divided. 6. The vote to concur failed to carry because the laity and clergy did not concur, a majority of each being required. Considerable time was spent In discussing the question of allowing representatives of churches in foreign countrle a vote in the convention. It was decided after a long argument that they should not have the ri(?ht. but the section was not finally adopted. The Hou?e of Bishops this afternoon decided to elect another lhop to Japan, to be known as the Bishop of ToUIo. The clectlou will occur next week. The bishops

have finished their discussion of the revised constitution. They laid the declaration on the table. This evening the Board of Missions held

another large meeting to consider the Alaskan question, and by a vote of 161 to 37, decided to ask the House of Bishops to elect a bishop to Alaska. The debate was not as sultry as last nlffht. but there were some spicy speeches. Bishop Neely made another light against Alaska, but he apol ogized for many of the things he had said about missionary Chapman last night. Many of the prominent bishops of the church took part in the debate and it was not until a late hour that the matter was decided. CO X G R EG ATI OVAL MISSIONS. Reports Submitted to the National Conuell Chnrch L'nity. SYRACUSE, N. Y., Oct. 11. To-day's ses sions of the National Council' of Congrega tional churches of the United States have been given over to the six missionary socle ties under supervision of that body. The first part of the? morning was devoted to the report of the Congregational Church Building Society, submitted by the Itev. L. IL Cobb, D. D., of New York. The next society to report was the Congregational Home Missionary Society, through the Itev. Washington Choate, D. D., of New York, secretary. The Rev. Samuel II. Virgin, of Pilgrim Congregational Church, New York, spoke on the report. He eulogized the association, which, he said, has produced the atmosphere in which, civic virtue and patriotism has flourished and. brought the majesty of the law and the beauty of the gospel to mold human character. "It has," he said, "furnished many a Parkhurst and many a Roosevelt whose successful, though unreported, tolls have changed the charac ter of towns and cities." The Rev. Richard B. Foster, of Okla homa, spoke on the work on the frontier. in which he had been enjrajred twentv-ix years. The Rev. Dana W. BarUett, of uiuii, Biiiu niai me worn in inat .Territory had not been a failure. The coming election in November would furnish a crisis in Ltah history. If the people vote for statehood the Mormons will control tho principal offices, including Governor, and civilization will be set back five or ten years. The Rev. Edward A. Paddock, of laano. spoKe wittily or that State, lie said the politics of the State and country must be purged by the Congregational sts ana tne -nttie red schooihouse." The Itev. Thomas G. Landale, of South Dakota, brought the greeting of that State and ewe a report of the work there. For Karuvaa the Rev. James G. Dougherty reported in an interesting manner. A dispatch from the nastor and congre cation of the First Co nirre era tional Church of Portland, Ore., inviting the council to meet there in lwi. was read. The council acted on the church-unity question by adding the ioliowaig resoiu tlons: "First That a committee on Christian unity be appointed at the session and that it be instructed to inform all national bodies that are in fellowship with us that it is authorized to represent this council in calling an interdenominational congress whenever any considerable number c our sister churches shall have signified their readiness to co-operate in the call, and also to assure them that we hope for great good from such a congiess, especially in the increase of mutual love and th multi(ilcation of opportunities for practical fel owshlp. "Second That we commend our brethren who have sought to promote comity by in terdenominational organization in the sev eral States and request our committee to encourage similar movements in all parts of our land. "Third That we ought to show that we are unsectarlan. not by undervaluing our principles, but by cultivating ana express ing thn spirit cf brotherhood toward ail the followers of Christ." Later in the session final action will be taken on the subject. At the afternoon session the reading of reports was continued. In order were given reports from the Sunday school and publishing, American education and American missionary societies. This evening, after the report of tho American board of commissioners for foreign missions. Samuel H. Capen. of Boston, Mass., delivered an address in behalf of all the societies on "the missionary obligations of our churches and the reasons for greater loyalty in supporting our six Congregational societies." . Kvanurellcnl Lnthcrnn. Council. . KASTON, Ta., Qct. 11. The first business of the third day's session of the General Council of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of North America was the reading of tho report of Itev. W. H. fUake, treasurer of the General Council, as follows: Balance of foreign mission fund in 1893, $3,634.67; receipts, $37,148.94; total, $40,7S3.Q; expenditures, J37.C37.W. leaving a balance of $3,44.1.62. J The General Council then took up the order of the day, the report of tho committee on Sundav (school work, which w'as read bv Rev. Dr. Richards, of Allentown. The committee Vecommends that feunday school work be put on a basis of a graded course of studies. The recommendation was adopted without discussion. There was a warm discussion over the propriety of calling the first department the "primary department," but the term was finally adopted by a large majority. The names of the other deiartment as adopted are: "Intermediate," "advanced" and "senior Bible class." Joseph rnrker to the Pope. LONDON, Oct. 11. Dr. Joseph Parker has written a letter to tho Pope in answer to the pastoral" letters advocating a reunion of Christendom, in which he says: "Were this a personal matter I could hardly forgive myself for seeking to approach a presence so august and venerable. But inasmuch as you have appealed to all sections on the questions which affect the standing of the soul before God, I have emboldened myself to bear witness to the headship of the blessed Christ and to decline communion with any man or church that would officially prescriptively come between me and my Savior." mm mm mmm mm i mm i mm mm ONE RECORD BROKEN.

PROTECTION FOR AMERICANS CRUISER MARBLEHEAD ORDERED TO THE GULP. OP ALEXANDRETTA. Another War Ship Requested by Min ister Terrell Confession of a. Woman Who Poisoned Many Children. CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 10, via Sofia, Bulgaria, Oct. 11. It is now stated on good authority that the total number of killed, wounded and missing Armenians, up to date, as a result of the recent rioting In this city, 4s over 700. The dragomans of the various embassies,' accompanied by the canvasses, after receiving instructions from tho different envoys of the powers to as sist the Turkish authorities in prevailing on the Armenians to leave the churches in which they nought refuge after the outbreak, at first proceeded to the Armenian Church of Constantinople. " There the Armenian bishop and the dragomen of the British embassy exhorted the Armenians to return to their houses, assuring them they had nothing to fear from tho Turks and that the strongest assurances had been given to the representatives of the powers by the Turkish government that the lives and property of Armenians would be protected. After consultation and delay the refugees declared they would not leave the church except on the following conditions: That amnesty be granted for political offepses; that they be permitted to retain arms in their possession; that the prisons be opened for the inspection of representatives of the powers, and that the innocent prisoners be released. The dragomans refused tq consider this proposition. Ir the meanwhile, however, Armenian women and children had come out of the church, but when they noticed that the men1 had not followed them, they returned, weeping and crying out that they would be killed if they returned to their homes alone, and saying they preferred to die In the church. The dragomans, in view of the obstinacy of the Armenians, had a conference during the afternoon with the Armenian patriarch, after which, and through the Influence of that prelate, the evacuation of the Kumkapou Cathedral began. As the refugees left the cathedral the priests entered their names on a special list while the canvasses searched them. When arms were found on the persons oX the Armenians they were taken from them and deposited in the patriarchate. Thex evacuation of the other churches followed, the police not interfering with the work. . In tho Armenian Church of Constantinople it was subsequently announced that 1,200 persons had sought refuse and IK refugees left the Kumkapou Cathedral. Additional advices received here to-day from TreblzonJ, . Armenia, shows that tho Mussulmans attacked the Christian quarter of that town and killed many of the Armenians. A number of others sought refuge outsile the town. The Russian government has decided: to send a war ship to Treblzond. - - , Americans to Be Protected. WASHINGTON, Oct. 11. By request of Minister Terrell, for the protection of American missionaries in Turkey, and at the instance of the. State Department, the Navy Department has ordered the Martoleiiead to the Gulf of Iskanderoon (Gulf of Alexandretta.) ' Minister Terrell also telegraphs that orJai saiVo been issued, for all provinces to protect Americans. It is not believed that there: Is imminent danger of outbreak, but the ship has been ordered to Turkey rather as a precautionary measure. Uist Summer Admiral KIrkland took hi3 two Ships, the sSan Francisco and the Marbl&head, into these same waters. There was no actual rioting lit progress, but the situation had a threatening aspect. Though the American war ships could not get near the most disturbed provinces, the effect of their presence on the coast was most salutary, impressing the' people, who perhaps never before had seen an American man-of-war, with a visible sense of the power of this country. It Is surmised that Minister Terrell feels the time is now opportune to revive this Impression. The State Department 13 gratified with the energetic course of Minister Terrell, and his dispatch Indicates that he has forestalled the representatives of other powers and secured the compliance1 of the Porte with his demand, made early In the week, that steps be taken to protect Americans in provinces distant from Constantinople without waiting until they have actually suffered outrage and assault. The' Marblehead sailed yesterday from Ville Franche for Naples, where she should arrive to-morrow at the latest. From there to the Levant is a distance of about 1,100 miles, which the Marblehead should cover In about four days, so that she should be at Alexandretta about the middle of next week. Terrell Wunta Another Ship. LONDON, Oct.; 11. Tho Constantinople correspondent of the Dally News says that the United States - minister, Hon. A. W. Terrell, has telegraphtd to his government for a war ship to be sent to Mersina for the protection of American interests in that district. . A WOMAN'S AAVTIL CRIME.

She administered the poison by mixing it with v,ino and prevailing on the children to drink the mixture. Her victims already number twenty-three. It Is stated that they e.ll.died In great agony. Tho woman has confessfwl tr hi vine onmmltted the deed and offered as an explanation that she wanted revenge for the death of two Of her own children, who had been bewitched. A crowd of people attempted to lynch the unnatural. w;-etch and were prevented with great difficulty. Chnrjrcd with. Lose Majesty. BRESLAU, Oct. 1L It ls reported that Ilerr Liebknecht, president of the Socialist Congress, will bo charged to-morrow with leso majesty on account of remarks contained in his inaugural address to the congress delivered last Monday. Herr Liebknecht remarked on that occasion that, no matter how many bayonets were at the disposal of these who wished a trial of strength with the Socialists, if the people wanted a fight, the Social Democrat was their man. He went on, then, with a direct defiance to the Kmperor, referring to the latter's anti-socialist speech in the fol lowing language: "The highest authority In the land throws aown, the gauntlet and insults U3. Let us take up the challenge. No matter who he be who casts this mud at us, ho is incapable of touching us, for we are above his Insults. The German em pire would first collapse. But socialism will triumph. A violation or universal suffrage would be equivalent to the death warrant of the imperial government." Cold Comfort for SUvcrltes. BERLIN, Oct. 11. Dr. Koch, chief direc tor of the Imperial Bank, was called- on to-day by the central committee of that Institution and the leading members of the mercantile and trade committees. The ob ject of the visitors was to congratulate the ixctor on tne twenty-nrtn anniversary of his appointment to the position of chief director of the bank.

Victims Xumherrd Fourteen. COLOGNE. Oct. 11. The Volks Zeltung says that fourteen dead bodies are still burled in the debris and ruins of the spin ning factory at Bocholt. forty miles from Munster, Westphalia, which collapsed yes terday and burled forty workmen in the ruins. The first report of the disaster placed the number of killed at ten, but the search of the ruins and the number of those known to have been In the factory

and who are missing shows that there are four men dead to be taken out, "What Troubles Germany. LONDON, Oct. 12. The Paris correspondent of the Times telegraphs as follows: "In the course of an interview upon European affairs, with Prince Lobanoff, the Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs, he said: The thing which directly troubles Germany and which concerns all Europe is that Prince Bismarck has set up a Parliament in which he has established, universal suffrage. By this action he has. permitted the entrance of Liberal Democrats into Parliament and they are now Justly the source of anxiety to Emperor

William. It is dimcuit to roresee now ne will succeed in warding off this peril. I understand this constitutes Emperor William's chief anxiety and it shows his sagacity.") The Nicaragua Cnnal. LONDON, Oct. 1L-A. C. Colhoun addressed the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce to-day on the position and prospects of the Nicaragua canal. In the course of his remarks he said that he regarded it as indisputably the best of the interoceanic canal projects, and he estimated that by about 1905. assuming that the canal should be commenced in 1806. seven million tons of goods would pass through. This would bring Japan, China and Australia nearer to the Atlantic cities of the United States than they now are to England. The benefit of the canal to America would be infinitely more than it would be to Europe. How Corea's Queen IVni Killed. YOKOIIAMA, Oct. 11. Count Koumura, director of the political bureau, has forwarded from Seoul, the capital of Corea, a report on the recent uprising there. It is now supposed that the Queen of Corea was killed by the anti-reformers, who,' headed by Tai-Ron-Kin, the King's father and leader of that party, forced an entrance into the palace at the head of an armed force, which caused the Japanese troops to take possession of and guard that building to restore order. The Csarerritch Boxed Too Hard. ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 1L The news reaching here from the Caucasus respectin the health of the Czarewltch is anything but reassuring. A story is to the effect that the first cause of the much regretted illness of the Czarewltch was overexertion while boxing with his cousin. Prince George of Greece. It is said that the Czarewltch on one such ocaslon fell backward and hurt bis spine, and that his sickness dated from that time. NO LONGER A QUEEN YO TAMBIE.V NOT A "GOOD TII1XG" IS RUXMNG RACES ANY MORE. Lobensrulav Eustlr Defeats Her, at Mile and Sexenty Yards, on the Latonla Track Other Winners.
