It Was Brought About Through Intr- gues of His Enemies. New York, Jan. 24. A special from Havana to the World, after reviewing in detail the intrigues in Cuba to bring about the recall of General Campos says : "General Campos refused to resign and placed himself in the hands of the Spanish ministry. ' The responsibility was thrown upon the latter. "The greatest difficulty in the way of the success of the plot was the queen re gent of Spain. This excellent woman is a devoted friend of General Campos, whom she regards as a father to her. Her consent was necessary before Gen eral Campos could be removed. A bold stroke was made to secure this. It was represented to the queen that the life of the captain-generel was in danger from the Havana mob: that his valor and tenacity would prevent him from avoid ing or yielding, and the only safe thing to do to get him out of the way was to recall him. The fact was ignored that there were plenty of troops within call, and that General Campos himself re ported no disorder. The queen consent ed to his recall and the enemies of the general triumphed.

Irving' Generosity. JnewYobk, Jan. 24. A dispatch to the World from London says : A frightful murder here this week makes known another instance of Sir Henry Irving's constant generosity. The victim was the daughter-in-law of Old Tom Chambers, at whose Liverpool the ater Mr. Irving played in his youth. Her husband seemed to be a worthless fellow, who left her with seven children to support.

The American liner St. Paul, from Southampton, for New York, struck the outer bar, off the Hotel Brighton, at Long Branch, N. J during a dense foe, between 1 and 2 o'clock this morning. She was shortly afterwards discovered by the patrol from the Long Branch life-saving service, and preparations were made to open com munication with her. The apparatus was dragged to the place and a shot was fired across the vessel, a hawser was placed on board and the breeches-buoy sent off. The people on board desiredto remain by the vessel, as there was no danger. Messages were sent ashore not ifying the agents of the maritime ex change and the wrecking companies of the accident. Crews from Seabright, -Monmouth Beach and the Long Branch life-saving stations were all in attendance on the steamer. The wind was light, south west, with a long ground swell. Among the passengers on the St. Paul are : .bx-uongressman W. Bourke Coch ran, Prince Serge Wolkousky, Dixon C. Walker, Dr. S. A. Knort, Harvey W, Brown, H. G. Fellows, Miss Minnie Sachs, Louis R.

The St. Paul sailed from Southamp ton, January 18, in charge of Captain Jamison. When the Bteamer ran aehore. it is said there were only four feet of water over the bar, Old seaman along shore say the vessel may not be floated for a week or more. The wrecking-tug Hustler passed ,ont at 9:20 a. m., to render assistance to the vessel, but at 10 a. m. no passengers had been removed from the steamer. At that time two tugs were beside the steamer, and another on the way from New York. A stern line. was put out to hold the vessel in the position she struck. This morning she appeared to be leaking, dirty water coming from the ship's pumps. This afternoon the life-saving crews commenced the transfer of the St. Paul passengers to another steamer, From the fact that she ran aground at high water, it is thought she will not be easily floated. The next high water will be a little before 2 o'clock, and an effort will then be made to pull her off. Meantime everything that can be re- moved win oe taken from the vessel in order to lighten her. Nine tugs are now with her, Some steerage passengers became greatly alarmed when the vessel struck Whe they went on deck, however, and saw the shore, they became quiet.

Manian adds that the Transvaal government has acted magnanimously. In view ot the foregoing, it is believed here that neither Hammond nor any other American is in serious peril. The state department has cabled Manian to use the most active and vigorous meas ures for the relief of Americans, and to that end make the Transvaal govern ment direct representation on behalf of the TToited States, which acts independ ently, of course, in its own interests.

Editor Chronicle: Seeing in your issue of January 15th that the road through Thompson's Ad dition was in a fearful condition and has been the cause of numerous complaints I would like you to state if its condition was any worse through '95 than it has been for the last ten or twelve years I went over it every week, and when ever it needed repairs, they were done, Some of your streets in The Dalles are as bad, or even worse, than Thompson's Addition. Now, if vour Commercial Club is suf fering so for exercise, and to do good for the country, let them get a dozen shovels at -The Dalles and keep the money at home, in place of sending it to Chicago for a bowling ailej, and start in at The Dalles, right at home. After they get the mud out there, if they want to do some more good for the country, come to Thompson's Addition and take the road on out with their shovels, That would have more effect than wind in newspapers. I kept the road through Thompson's Addition and ten miles out in repair through '95, and am willing to leave it to people who pass oyer it if the condition was not as good, if not better, in '95 than it generally is.

A special to the World from Havana savs : The plan of campaigh adopted bv the commander-in-chief ofthe Spanish forces now in Cuba has been divulged by sever al officers of high rank, whose name must be kept secret. General Campos established what be came known as the "wall of men." He distributed a large number of Spanish troops in such a manner that tbey prac tically formed a solid line from coast coast. His line began in the north about five miles west of Havana, and ex tended south to the Bay of Matamano, At the time this plan was adopted Gomez bad announced that be would take his command not only into Havana province, but he would walk into Pinar del Rio, and as tar as be possibly could Campos determined to prevent Gomez from carrying out his project. The wall of men was well to the westward of the railroad line between Havana and Bata bano. Gomez and Maceo not only suc ceeded in crossing Campos' line, but re- crossed it several times, and Gomez and Maceo separated west of it two weeks ago. Maceo remained in Pinar del Kio province, -doing about as he pleased while Gomez invaded Havana province again, and one time camped within 15 miles of the capital of Cuba. Reports were printed in the United States that Gomez was at the gates Havana and that it was only a question of a few hours when he would enter the city. But Gomez had no intention of attacking this city. He openly declared that his only object is to tire out the Spanish troops. A large number of armored cars have been ordered. At least 3000 armed troops will be kept constantly moving over the railroad. Maceo and his command, the Spanish generals say, cannot escape. He is looked upon as an "easy mark." Many of his troops are believed to be wounded ii Maceo tries to go east ne will run up against a new wall of men much strong er than, be broke through some weeks ago. If he tries to escape west, the Spanish argue, he will have to march to sea. where his only chance to get away will be in boats. The Spanish commanders fear only Gomez. Although he is nearly 68 years old, they recognize in him one of the ablest of fighting men, and an expert tactician. ' - . Judge Peckham's First Decision- Washington, Jan. 27.

Cincinnati, Jan. 27. The Commercial Gazette has received the following card from Rev. James A.

I did not receive one cent from the guard ship.' Was offered $300 for it. This foes was all raised by disappointed candi dates. The reports that I had some no tion of resigning is true, but I am over my scare now. I am willing and anxious that an investigation shall be made by the general assembly."

Brown Has Eluded Bis Pursuers. Rosebubo, Or., Jan 27. News came tonight from Myrtle point that murder er Sam G. Brown has again eluded his pursuers. Friday night he stayed at a ranch near Gravel Ford, 25 miles east of Myrtle Point. He was much exhausted, but left early Saturday morning. Sheriff Gage, who was a short time behind him, tracked him to the east and north forks of the Coquille river. There be found where Brown had rolled a five-foot log into the river and evideutly embarked. A log, supposed to be the same one, was found lodged a short distance below. There was no trace of Brown having landed, and be is believed to have been drowned. The water is very swift, and Brown may not have been strong enough to hold on. Another theory is that this is a ruse to mislead the officers. A short time will probably determine.
