Tbe torch, knlfa and rifle are the weaKina of muba that are unrolling In half tbecllleiof Spain. Martial la ii proclaimed in alinont tvery great city. Civil gnanla are imeleni ami yinpathlze with the ople. Even aolilieri cannot he trmted. Tbi ii capecially true ol Mvlri.l. The aoldiera there are only re alralned from leailiiif', ae riot, which bai IxTome perilously near to a rebellion, by being kept In their harrarka. Llnarea, 23 tulles) from Jaon, waa the cen ter of the disturbance today. Brenea, near Seville, it in the hands of an ai.gry, blood hungry mob. Cadis. Alicante and Barce lona follow with menacing crowds, tearing down shops for bread, and yielding oaly to bayonets and machine guns. "Death to tbe thieves in office" ll the cry of a marching mob at Marios. At Linares a mob attacked the city hall. A giant pple in the band of a hundrtU stalwart men smashed the doors. Tbe crowd swarmed in. Tbe woodwork and furnltnre was piled In the court yard and fired. Civil guards charged the mob packed densely in the corridors. Tbe mob. fought deserately and the civil guards fired re- ptauilly. Some of the rioters, armed, returned the fire. Twelve men were killed and fifty wounded. The wounded lay groaning aud shrieking In agony In the street, while the soldiers drove the mob from the city ball at the iKiinlof the bayonet and fired at the Heelng rioters. There was no time lo pick up the deed or the wounded, for the troops kept up such a fusilade that none dared venture into the street. The commander sent to Jaen for reinforcements. Later the mob reorganised In a quiet street and pro cured arms and ammunition. Then, witb shouts of "Down witb tales!" they rushed up the city hall stairs, fired npoti tbe civil guards Inside and drove them cut. How many were killed In this attack is not yet known. The mob inarched to tbe bouse ol the tax col lector, who fled after a brief resistance. His house was sacked. Tbe mob stole 2100 pesetas and a box of Jewelry. Thenitflred the house. News from Brenes is meagre, but It is known the Tillage priest, who tried to calm the turbulence, waa stoned to death. Martial law has been proclaimed In the provinces of Albacete and Jaen, while the province of Catalonia and the city of Bar celona have been formally declared in state of siege. Lieulenant-Oenersl Daban Is disgusted witb the difficulty of his posi tion as captain-general of Madrid and is ex peeled to resign. Trouble at Porto Rico. Wabuihuton, May U. Matters in Torto Rico are growing daily more serious. Refugees who have reached here from the Spanish island say that great distress pre vails there. As no news is given oat on the island, the residents of Porto Rico implore their friends here to keep them K)sted upon current events. Tbe Spanish government stops all code message and communication of any kind Is most difficult. It is said the annexationists are growing daily in numbers, and the revolutionary party or Porto Rico is awaiting the arrival of the first American troops or the blockad ing of the ports to rise against the Spanish government. Military activity at San Juan de Porto Rico and at other places continues unabated. VolunleeiB are being armed in large num bers, and it is believed arms have been given to some 30,000 men, in many cases falling into tbe hands of tbe revolutionists, who are only awaiting the signal to com mence active operations against tbe Spanish troops. ' Value of the Philippines. Cuioaoo, May 13. Aspecial to the Times Herald from Washington says: The representatives of the foreign govern ments are taking an Intense Interest in tbe serious conflict between the United States and Spain. They are specially concerned at present in tbe hite of the Philippines, and are discussing the possibility of interference by the powers. The concensus of opinion stems lo be that if the United States con cludes to retain possession of the conquered islands of the Pacitlc, the European powers will have no cause to interfere. "It may surprise some Americans to know that Dewey's viotory carries with it spoils of war probably larger than was ever decided by the issue of one battle. The future value and Influence of this conquest is almost incalculable. Studying the situation as It exists, we must assume that, with the fall of the Philippines, the United Status acquires al most the right ot disposal of tbe destiny of more that 0,000,000 people. are for Ida most part either Carllit or Republican!. The former are stronger In the rural district and tbe latter in tbe large towns. Tbe numbers are about equal. The Carllst have the advantage of being perfectly organised, disciplined and united under one leader, whereas the Republicans are divided among themselves, and, more over, are discredited by tbe outrages com mitted by the extreme or anarchist wing or the party. "Besides, the mere fact of A merlca being a republic would at present not dispose the Spaniards towards Republican Institutions. But everything in Spain depends upon tbe rmy. Tbe present dynasty was re-estab lished by a military pronouncement, and will probably end In the same way. SPANISH C0WABD8 The Flylns Squadron liar Keturued Home. They Are Arraid to Meet Nampson la American Waters and Refuse to Engage lo Battle. Ignored Court's Order. BAI., Ore., May 10. Secretary of State Kin caid Ignored the mandate of the circuit court in relerence to the inlddle-of the-road Popu lints in certifying the list of candidates lo the various comity, clerks. The order of the court required tbe secretary to place the mlddle of-the readers on the ballot as "peo ple's party" candidates, in accordance with the credential! filed by the officers of the mlddle-of the-road convention. Secretary Kiucaid appealed from the decision of the lower court, but the appeal has not been perfected. The attorney for tbe mlddle-ol- the-road candidates has been notified tbat tbe secretary will justify bis bond on under taking to the appeal at Dallas tomorrow. In the meantime, middla-of-the.rosd can didates have filed as "regular peoples party" candidates, by petition, and the sec retary bss made up the form of the official ballot On the ballot he has used lha de signation "regular people s party,' as usea in the etitioii, instead of "people's party," as directed by tbe court The statutory time for certifying to candidates for state offices expires today. If tbe case is carried up and a decision should be rendered by the supreme court affirming the lower court, there Is room for speculation as to just where the secretary would be "at." Orrgoa Crops. Pobtlaicd, May 13. There is no record in Oregon of a failure of crops. From all parts of tbe state come reports of bright promises for the grain, bay, fruit, hop and vegetable cropa. Some section! Douglas, Josephine and Jackson counties, west or the Cascades, and all tbe counties lo tbe eastof them, especially the stock counties report that the continuation of the dry weather for a much longer period will be detrimental to croa. The barometric con dition peculiar to tbe winter season con tinue to prevail and it la almost absolutely certain that rain will fall, tbat it will be copious and general before the summer or dry season realty sets in. Past records show tbat when March and April bare been dry, or comparatively so. May and June have had generous showers, and such may be ex pected this year; so that for several weeks more there need be no fear of a drouth or injury to crops. Fighting to be Forced. Naw Yobk, May 13. A special to the Tribune from Washington says: Aggressive action along the whole line describes the attitude of the administration, according to the policy now definitely adopted, growing directly out of Admiral Dewey's unparalleled achievement in Asiatic waters. Any hope that existed that Spain, after a crushing blow, would recognize tbe futility of senselessly resisting the inevita ble, has at last been abandoned. The president has determined that the fighting shall be vigorously forced with the full power of the United States in order most speedily to terminate the conflict by tbe de struction of the last vestiges of authority exerted by the Madrid government beyond tbe shores of the Spanish peninsula itself. WASHiaotoa, May 12 Advices wero re ceived late this afternoon by both the state and navy departments that the Spanish flying squadron of four cruisers aud three torpedo boat destroyers bad arrived at Cadiz, Spain Tbis is the H-et that tailed from tbe Cape Verde islands nearly two weeks ago. It Is hard to tell whether tba naval officers were relieved or disapjiointed by the news. The safety from attack is now completely sutured, and the way is clear for military operations In Cuba, wittiout run ning the risk of having the occupying army's line of communication cut off. On tbe other hand, it is believed that no enduring peace can be secured until the Spanish navy bas been destroyed, and it now appears that the sailors and soldiers must make up ibeir minds to go after tbe Spanish, a task very much more difficult than tbat of meeting them near our own shores. It was suggested by some of the members of tbe navy department tbat tbera was just a possibility that the Spanish squadron might take a quick passage into the Pacific tbrougb tbe Suez canal and attack Dewey at Manila. It la said that, contrary to common understanding, tbe Sues canal is open to warships of belligerent powers, so tbat if the Spanish choose to tako this course they would have a long start ol any pursuing fleet from our side of tbe Atlantic. It is scarcely believed, however, tbat the Spanish are willing to take the risk of ex posing to our attack their own borne porta by the withdrawal of so considerable a pro iortion of tbeir naval strength as would be required to overmatch Dewey. Nothing was heard from Sampson today, but there is a confident expectation that in teresting news will be coming from bis squadron within the next twenty-four hours. Whether this means an attack on Porto Rico or no cannot be learned. Tbe return o the Spanish fleet leaves the) course free to the Oregon lo make a Junc ture witb tbe North Atlantic squadron. Spanish Treachery. Hojio Koao, May 10. A fresh example ol Spanish treachery seems to have com to light It it said her that priests and sis ters o charity of Cavite Hospital in a pro cession, bearing crosses, eta, petitioned Admiral Dewey not to massacre the sick and wounded, which naturally be did not do. Tbe Spaniards, it is asserted, there upon thereupon thanked tbe Americans for tbeir humanity, and repaid them by inform ing tbera of a narrow channel, which they ssid was not mined, while the broad chan nel, tbey explained, was fully mined. In vestigation on the part of the Americana revealed tbe contrary to be tbe case, and; tbe mines were blown up by tbe sailors of tbe American fleet It is asserted here tbat Admiral Dewey finds tbe insurgents at the Philippine! growing dangerous. He cannot control them, ner can he enable tbe Spaniards to do so. Massacres are said to bave occurred outside Manilla, tbe insurgents killing Spanish women and children. There is one Japanese warship at Ma nila. Is all right, but you must have clothes to wear, and the best quality at lowest prices can he Had only at Thomas Charman & Son's Pioneer Store. Drifting To Carliara. Londou, May 13. Tbe Earl ofAshburn bam, who admits that he Is the represent tive of Don Carlos In England, says in the course of an interview: "The issue of tbe war so far concerns tbe present occupant of tbe throne, which is al readv lost In a very short time either Don Carlos will be seated upon the throne, or a republlo will be proclaimed. It Is difficult lo say which. The Spanish people Corbvtt and Flttslmmona. Boston, Mass., May 13. Bob Fitzsim mons has announced his acceptance of the otter of Kid McCoy to pay tbe champion 110,000 for a fight at middle-weight; also bis acceptance ot the ofter of Corbett of $25, 000 for an opportunity to regain the heavy weight championship. Fitzsimmons will meet either man before the club offering the largest purse, but he will Insist on a side bet ol 10,000 in each case, and both matches must take place before the last of Septem ber this year. Jim Corbett says be will meet Fitzsim mons aud sign tor a fight on the terms pro posed. Nothing has been heard from Kid McCoy. Guarding Against Treachery. 8a Fbanci8co, May 8. All the reservoirs and exposed properties of the Spring Valley waterworks, which supply San Francisco witb water, are guarded against treachery from a foreign foe by an armed patrol, which watches day and night. It is feared tbat attempts may be made to blow up reservoirs witb dynamite aud then set fire to tbe city. Chicaoo, May 14. A special to the Tribune from Tampa says that the party of three correspondents who, In company with Major 8mith, of Gomez' body-guard, started some time since to interview Gomez bas been captured by the Spaniards and be headed. No mention is made of tbe fate of the other members of the party, and this story has not yet been confirmed. What Dr. A. E. Salter Saj. Buffalo, N. Y. Gents; From my personal knowledge, gained in observing the effect of your Shiloh'a Cure in cases of advanced Consumption, lam prepared to say that it is the most remarkable Remedy that has ever been brought t my attention.
