The story is that the railroads have been asked to communicate with Northern lines and have special trains ready at a moment's notice to transport government troops to all points on the scacoast. It is also stated that the Washington authorities have been in communication with the state officers in regard to calling out the state tronjs if necessary, and to provide for their quick transportation to points needed.

Hundreds Marquis da Falmerola Made a Scandal ous Attack on Consul Lee. New York, March 2.

Tho incident arose be cause the censor refused to pass a dis patch for the correspondents which said that the release of Scott hud been de manded because ho was both arrested and kept in prieon in defiance of the law.

This led to a very lively skirmish, in which prizefighting wad denounced on all sides, and the advo cates of the bill insisted that the "sickening details" should be sup pressed, in the interest of good morals. But tho bill met strenuous opposition, on the ground that it would tend to establish a censorship of the press. At the end of the debato, which was par ticipated in by Aldrich and Grosvenor in favor of the bill, and Dockery and Cumin ings in opposition, the adver saries of the meusure outvoted the friends of tho bill on several filibuster ing motions, but an agreement for a recess until 10 o'clock, tomorrow put an end to the hostilities. The bill now becomes the unfinished business when ever the call of committees is reached, but conference reports have tho right of way, and it is doubtful whether the order of business will again bo reached this session.

Thompson was shutting off a drain cock, when he slipped and fell from tho platform into the crankpit, six feet below. In some manner, not clearly explained, both legs were caught by tho revolving cranks, with the result that he was wound up in tho machinery to his hips. As the throttle was only ono-tihrd open, the human obstructor stopped the engine. Thompson's cries brought the engineer to his assistance, hut, af ter working half an hour, only one leg was released.

Men, women and girls joined in tho work of fighting the fire, which seemed to spring through the floor from the cellar in a dozen places, but it was finally put out without the aid of tho firemen. There was no insurance, but the factory is fitted with all modem ap pliances for fighting fire. Many of the those employed in the factory believe the fire was of incen diary origin.

Unless something firm and decided and strongly American is done by our government in Washington, Americans are in danger of their lives. The murder of Ruiz and the demand for the release of Scott are the sole topics of conversation. Tho govern ment and palace people here have tried to change the subject of conversation by giving out news of an alleged skirmish with Gomez, but the attempt was a failure.

Hundreds of telegrams have poured in on Consul-General Leerom all quar tcrs of the globe, congratulating him on the stand he has taken, those from the United States promising patriotic action in congress. Even at this crit ical moment, and with many heavy cares and responsibilities which the administration should share weighing upon him, General Lee views the situ ation from a calm, dispassionate stand point, and he expresses the hope that the situation created by the murder of Ruiz and his own determination not tp submit to another similar atrocity should not bo exploited by partisan ud vocates of any particular policy toward the Island of Cuba.

A World special from Havana says: The state department refuses to answer General Lee's cabled questions, whether or not it will sustain his de mands that Spanish outrages upon Americans cease and that the liberty and treaty rights of citizens of the United States be respected by the Span ish authorities. Ruiz was kept incommunicado thir teen davs before he was killed. To prevent Scott being secretly murdered, General Lee demanded of General Ahumada on Friday that Scott be brought out of close confinement and allowed to see his friends. This was not done by Saturday, and General Leo oabled to Secretary Olney the facts, asking him how many warships were on the Florida coast, and if one would be sent here in case it became necessary to enforce a demand. Not one word in reply to the ques tion has como from Washington up to Wednesday, four days after the state department had been asked by the consul-general in an emergency if he could rely upon his government fully sustaining him in protecting the citi zens of his country. The Spanish authorities do not in the least respect treaty stipulations that no American prisoner must be kept in solitary confinement more than five days, and must be acquainted with the charge against him within twenty four hours. No American prisoner ever was brought out of solitary confinement in a dark cell within the time specified. . The American colony is bordering on a panic, now that there is no hope of protection from the government at Washington unless congress compels it to send a fleet immediately. Upset In the llreakers OB tha Bay of Tillamook. Tillamook, Or., March 3. A terrible flcoident occurred hero toduy, whereby three boys, Ernest Barnard, aged 15; Cecil Miller, aged 10, and Georgo Leasia, aged 10, lost their lives. The three boys were digging clams near tho bar, and the tide was still strongly on the ebb when the young fellows sighted the steamer Chilkut coming in over tho bur. In a spirit of lioyish bravado, they determined to go out and meet her. The tide was much stronger than tho boys supposed, and they were carried rapidly out and into the breakers, where their boat was up set and three of them drowned. The following account of the disaster was given by Captain Dunham, of the Chilkat: "While steaming into the bay today, my attention was drawn to what seemed to me to be three sea lions. My wifo, however, insisted that they were human beings, und, on observing closer, I saw thut they were three boys cling ing to a small boat, which had been up set in the surf. The bout was inside tho bar, and near the shore, and the boys were clinging to it and screaming at the top of their voices for help. I whistled the sign of distress to draw the attention of some one on shore, and then turned the ship about and went as near to the shore as I dared, and low ered one of my boats. By this timo the breakers had washed two of tho boys off, and I saw no more of them. i There was a very strong current out, and the largest boy continued to cling to the bout and drifted out of the breakers. "By this time tho steamer Elmoro arrived at the bur on hor way out I told the captain what had happened, and he immediately crossed tho bar nnd steamed about, hunting for the boys, and especially the one clinging to tho boat, but ho did not find any of them. I recrosscd the bar to the ocean and looked about, but, being unable, to find either of tho boys, I steamed off south, in tho direction that I thought the boy clinging to tho boat had drifted. After going about half a mile, I sighted tho boy on tho boat, about a quarter of a mile further south. I steamed on to ward him as rapidly as possible, but, when about 30 feet away from him, an unusually largo wave swept over tho boat and tho boy threw up his hands and sank, and I saw him no more." After steaming about for some time, the captain rccrossed tho bur into tho harbor, and gave tho alarm. A large number of men was soon on the bcaoh, nnd on tho shores of the bay, insido the bar, but late this evening the bodies had not been recovered. The parentii of the nnfortunate lads live here, and the untimely fate of the young fellows has cast a gloom over the entire city. .A CORNER IN WOOL. of Sanguilly Is Free. Washington, March 1.

Chicago, Maroh 2. A Boston special says: One of the largest corners on wool ever attempted in the United States exists at present in this city, in anticipation of the restoration of a tariff on wool. The existence of the corner has been a well guarded secret for two weeks, but the operations of the men and their agents at London and Hamburg have become so bob! as to attract attention, and thus tho secret got out. The steamer Columbian, which ar rived yesterday, brought 8,000 bales of wool, making a total ot 261,160 bales whioh has arrived in port during the present month. A syndicate was re cently formed in this city to buy all the wool offered in European markets, in anticipation of a duty of 10 per cent being put on wool by congress at the extra eession, and the increased receipts are thus accounted for. Buyers have already purchased 15, 000 bales of wool abroad, und will con tinue to purchase tho sumo up to tho time of the imposition of tho duty, cal culated at 11 cents a pound. Tho syn dicate has raised a pile of money, and only a few day s ago cabled $5,000,000 to its London agents. It is calculated that 1,000,000 bales, or 500,000,000 pounds, ot Australian and South American wool, will be brought to this country by the syndicate within ' the time given. They Played Kurglnrs.
