Administration May Intervene for General Rivera. Washington, April 5. It has conic to tuc'knowledge of the state depart ment that General Sangullly Is at Jacksonville, Fla., and that his fol lowers have given out the impression that the general Is about to head nn expedition to Cuba. Secretary Sher man i was asked what the United States government would do In a case tills impression was well founded. In reply, lie said that in the first place he did not believe Sangullly would do such a thing. His re.uon for this belief was the fact that he (Secretary Sherman) held In his possession a written pledge made by Sangullly In return for the good offices of this gov ernment in securing his releahc from prison not to have any cpnnectlon In any manner with the Cuban troubles. The Spanish government also held a similar pledge, and, in addition, San- gullly had promised not to return to Cuba without its consent. If San- gullly violated the obligations he had thus assumed, the department of state, Mr. Sherman said, would not interfere further for his protection no matter what befell him, and it would have nothing further to do with him. The secretary does not believe that General Rivera, who was wounded and captured by the Spanish, and now lies In Jail at San Cristobal, will bo executed. It is undoubtedly true, however, that the threat of the de parture of another expedition from Florida under Sangully promises to prejudice the efforts that are making, with a show of success, to secure gen eral Rivera's pardon".""

Chicago, April 5 The Times-Her aid's Washington special says: Secretary Sherman is protesting. against the execution of General Ruiz Rivera, the Cuban leader, recently captured by the Spanish. President McKinley and Secretary Sherman dis cussed the case, afld'the latter, at the president's suggestion, communicated with Senor do Lome, the Spanish minister, Riving him to understand the execution of Rivera would raise such indignation throughout the United States as to embarrass the government. Senor dc Lome commu nicated the substance of this informal protest to his government, and there arc reasons for believing the Spanish authorities will cable orders to Ha vana which will save Rivera's life. ' The House Toole It Up. Washington, April 5. Mahaney Introduced a resolution in the house requesting the secretary of state, "if such action be not inconsistent with public policy, to represent to the government of Spain the profound sense of satisfaction with which the people of the United States would view the extension of clemency as re gards the remission of a death sen tence It the case of General Ruiz Rivera." Duty of the United States. New York, April 5. C. E. Ackers, who has for two years been the Lon don Times' correspondent at Havana, has a four-column letter in the "World, In which he declares the worst hor rors of Crete and Armenia aro equaled by Spanish barbarities in Cuba, and that it is the moral duty of the United States to stop the war. crowd surrounded the county jail all day to see Butler start on his Journey to justice. They had a long wait, for the mulil-murderer was not taken aboard the Mariposa until the last moment. Before leaving the jail, he was handcuffed to the two Australian detectives and driven as quickly as possible to the dock, where ho was hurried Into the specially-equipped prisoner's room amidships.. Dumint's Application Denied, San Francisco, April 5.-Tue su preme court, of California, has denied the application of Theodore Durant for a re hearing of his application for a new trial for the murder of .Blanche Lamont, the supreme court -having previously refused the application for a new trial, Chief Justice Ueaity alone dissented from today's ruling denying a rehearing. This settles Durant so far as this stato's courts are concerned, but he will now endeavor to have the federal courts pass on his case.

A, Elmer, wanted In Florida, arrived here with the prisoner heavily guarded. Elmer reached Acapulco in the evening, having with him 910, 000 American money, and his anxiety was to .get the money disposed of. This was arranged through the as sistance of a friend, and on the even ing of his arrival, he drafted the money to his agent in San Francisco. His plans were well laid,' and escape from the republic was in sight had it not been for the man who had piloted him from Pucnte de Ixtla to Acapula informing the authorities of his identity. Elmer will be handed over to the American detective, Rhodes, for removal to Florida. BY ORDER OF COURT. Assignee of the J. M. Mover & Co. Stock Forced to Sell.

I A Schilling & Compuy San tttaciKo to struction in this mushroom town. Nearly all of this has been done within six weeks, for up to that time there were only three buildings nnd the lonely-looking water-tank to mark the location of the now busy town of Quartz Crcuk. On account not being able to gel lumber, building Is retarded much at prcseut. It is said the railway company will not accept lumber destined to this place until something definite is known as tO'wbero the depot and side track will be built. As yet there is not even a s'dn track orspurhere, and the method of re ceiving, lumber heretofore has been to hold tho train until a force of men could unload it. Application has been made for a postofflce, and John McLeod, who is to be the postmaster, is expecting the commission daily. The name of tho postolllco will bo Wild Horse and no doubt the name of tho town will be change to correspond as soon as the former Is established. , Quartz Creek Is situated 18 miles southwest of Nelson and seyen rnjlejf north of Salmon Siding (Salmon), B.C. on the main line of the Nelson & Fort Shoppard railway. It Is on Salmon river, about 10 miles from its head waters and about midway between the mouths of the Wild Horse and Porcupine creeks. There are now two hotels, two gen eral merchandise and one hardware store, two barber shops, two butcher shops, one saloon and one restaurant. There are under construction three good-sized hotels, four store buildings and numerous other business houses and residences. The snow on the townslto is four feet deep, which is being shoveled ont for foundations and buildings. The entire flat where the town is situated has been staked out and foundations have been laid upon the most of the lots, which will bold the property until tho townslte Is platted. The Russian View of It. St. Petersburg. April 5.--The Journal de St. Petersburg (seral-offlclal) says: The aggresslro and progressive attitude that Greece malntalng with such deplorable obstinacy, compels the powers to blockade tho gulf of Athens. Greece, by keeping Colonel Vassos in Crete, Is exposing the Cre tans to all the disadvantage of a blockade there. The reports of the consuls in Crete andof the admirals of tho Internat ional fleets, show tho utter impossibi lity at the present moment of commu nicating directly with the Cretans, who aro subjected to the overwhelm ing influence of the Greek detach ment In the island and kept back in places inaccessible to European ne gotiation, Colonel Vassos has prac tically declared war against the powers.
