The Republicans attribute their via
tory largely to the municipal tax

sentiment in favor of sustaining the
national administration.
Murderous Shooting Affray Near San
tlsgo Foor Person Killed.
Santiago de Cuba, Nov. 17. An in
cident occurred last night at San Luis,
about 25 miles north ot Santiago, which
caused a great deal of ill-feeling among
the Cubans and considerable annoyance
among the United States military offi
cials here.
All tbe colored regiments are en
camped in tbe neighborhood ot San
Luis. They were sent there virtually
to got them oat of the way, because of
the difficulty experienced in managing
them. The colored officers seem to
have little or "no control over their
men, and officers and privates are often
teen drinking together, with arms
around each other's neck, and behaving
in other ways not calculated to inspire
respect for the American troops among
the Cubans.
It was not expected that the colored
soldiers could do much haim in San
Lois district, which was chosen on
that principle. The trouble began last
evening in an attempt to arrest two sol
diers for abusing a Cnban workman
and stealing his hog. Tbe outrage
was committed on tbe Normas sugar
plantation. Lieutenant Jose Ferrora,
chief of General Wood's gendarmes in
that section, a Spaniard but a Cuban
sympathizer, and a man whom Gen
eral Wood knew to oe able and courage
ous, attempted to make the arrests.
The soldiers, who belonged to the
Ninth immunes, escaped. Soon after,
80 colored men, wearing the uniforms
of the United States army, attacked
tbe house where Lieutenant Ferrora
was and kept up a regular fusilade,
killing Lieutenant Ferrora, Antonio
Roman, an old man; Emilo Betteran,
a boy of 17, and a baby, and wounding
several others. Two soldiers wen
killed in the affray.

Captain MeCalla Believes tho Cruiser
Cannot Be Bescoed.
Washington, Uov. 17. In a cable
gram to tbe navy department from Nas
sau today regarding the Maria Teresa,
Captain MeCalla says:
"After a careful examination of the
stranded ship and the situation, and
careful consideration of instructions
from the department, appreciating the
great interest taken by the nation and
government in the fate of the Teresa, I
regret exceedingly to express tbe opin
ion that it is hopeless to expect to res
cue tbe ship. Craven, Blow, Hobson
and Crittenden confirm my opinion.
The wreck is stianded in from 16 to 21
feet of water, with her head to the
northward."
After describing the condition of the
wreck, he says:
"In consider inn the praoticability
of rescuing the Teresa, the fact must
be considered that she lies upon a coral
reef, with but a thin layer of sand,
on tbe windward side of an island
constantly exposed to seas due to trade
winds and to the influence of many
storms developing to tbe eastward or
southward. The character of the bot
torn makes anchorage off the eastern
coast of the island dangerous."
REVOLUTION IN SALVADOR
The People Dissatisfied With the New
Federation.
New York, Nov. 17. A cable dis
patoh received in this city from Liber
tad, Nicaragua, Bays that a revolution
has broken out in Salvador.
It is only a fortnight since Salvador,
Honduras and Nicaragua joined their
destinies and formed the United States
of Central America. Merchants and
commercial men in this city who are
familiar with affairs in Central
America, however, were not surprised
when informed that a revolution in
Salvador was reported to have bioken
out.
While the federation of the three
countries was approved and carried out
by the presidents and commissioners
appointed from each country to draw
up a constitution, tbe people ol balva'
dor were not enthusiastic over the new
scheme, particularly as it appears that
the financial burdens of the new state
will fall most heavily upon them.
Not on the Programme.
St. Louis, Nov. 18. At the Century
theater, in course of the presentation of
I Pagliacci, the tenor, Franoesco
Colletim, carried out the finale of one of
the acts by a bit of realism that was
not on the programme. With unwont
ed ardor Mr. Collenz wounded Miss
Nedda Morrison, the prima donna, in
the arm with a dagger. Blood spurted
forth from a wonnd in the left forearm.
the aoiess fainted and the ourtain was
rung down. Manager Levering called
for a physician from the audience. Dr,
Thompson responded, and speedily re
vived Miss Morrison, who was forced tq
reture to her hotel. The wound is not
serious. .
Krag-Jorgensens for the Army.
Washington, Nov. 17. Secretary
Alger, after conference today with
Adjutant General Corbln and Major
Shaler, of the ordnanoe bureau, decided
that the United States armories have
progressed with the manufacture of
Krag-Jorgensen rifles to a point where
he could undertake to arm the entire
army with this weapon. As fast as the
rudb can be packed and sent forward,
the Springfields in the hands of tbe sol
diers will be retired and turned into
the arsenals.
Meteorio Display.
San Jose, Cal., Nov. 17. The
meteorio display of Leonidas, occurring
but thrice in a century, was observed
at the Lick observatory on tbe 13th,
and the two preceding nights, the fre
quency not exoeeding six meteors per
hour. Photographs were taken with
two telescopes, and tracks of several
meteors were platted.
Huntsville, Ala., Nov. 17. Five
deaths occurred among the troops quar
tered here toduv. all privates.
Paris, Nov. 17. The Spaniards do-,
clare that their refusal to sign a treaty
based on any Philippine terms thus far
suggested by the United States is irre
vocable. They say that they do not
and cannot view the taking oi the Phil
ippines as anything else than a wanton
ravishment of their possessions, unless
it is accompanied by a financial con
sideration of appreciable size. There
fore, the turn ot events in the peace
conferenoe depends upon the purpose
or the willingness of the American
commissioners to extend their financial
terms.
The Spanish sovereignty in tbe Phil-
ippines is now clung to by the Span
iards chiefly as a means to obtain
financial relief, if possible.
Persons near to Spain's creditors be
lieve that, should tbe Americans as
sume the Philippine debt, or pay Spain
its face amount in cash, the Spaniards
would sign.
If they have not already done so, the
Spanish commissioners will ultimately
advise the Americans that they must
not permit any controversy as to the
binding character of the mortgage rest
ing upon the revenues of the Philip
pines to pay the so-called Philippine
debt Tenacious adherence to this
claim would set up on tbe Spanish side
an ultimatum under whioh no treaty
would be signed whiob did not stipu
late that the Philippine revenues should
pay tbe Philippine debt.
In such event, the Americans would
probably claim that the Philippine
debt of $10,000,000 amounts to $20,
000,000 in gold, of which about $11,
000,000 has been employed in fighting
the United States, leaving less than
110, 000,000 chargeable in gold to the
Philippines, Indeed, the United States
would doubtless contend that even tho
reduced amount was used in fighting
the Filipinos and object to tbe Spanish
conclusion that it iB a fair charge
against the Americans.
Trouble will arise, however, before
that stage is readied, as the Spanish
commissioners will undoubtedly inform
the Americans that the latter have no
right to exact a schedule of Spain's ex
penditures or any explanation regard
ing the destination of the money
secured on these loans.
A Spaniard who is posted as to the
exact status of affairs, informed the
correspondent this evening that he did
not believe tbe Spanish commissioners
would take their final stand at tomor
row's session, although ho thought it
possible that they might finally decline
to continue the discussion except with
in the limits of Spain's construction of
the protocol. ThiB is another way of
saying Ppain may cease her conten
tions. Should she doao she would
make an open protest to the world
against "spoliation." '
WORK OF AN INDIANA MOB.
Colored Democratic Stump Speaker
llrutally Beaten.
Seymour, Ind., Nov. 15. Tonight a
masked and armed mob took out of jail ,
John Baird, a colored Democratic stnmp
speaker, who had been imprisoned on
the charge of obtaining money by false
pretenses. Once outside, the mob beat
him with gads, pounded him over the
head with revolvers, and ordered hira
to leave the town at onoe. Instead of
obeying the order, he went to the pros- .
ecnting attorney and sheriff for protec
tion. Half an hour later he accompa
nied the shoriff and posse in search for
members of the mob. It is not known
whether or not the assault upon him
was inspired by political spite.
Another Investigation.
Washington, Nov. 16. Lieutenant
Commander Harris, who was in com
mand of the Spanish cruiser Maria
Teresa at the time of het abandonment,
has been ordered to proceed from
Charleston with the enlisted men for
merly attached to the Teresa, to the
navy-yard at Norfolk. No additional
details were received at the department
today concerning tbe condition of tho
Spanish warship. When the wrecking
expedition returns to the United States,
with or without the Teresa, an inves
tigation will be instituted to determine
the necessity and responsibility for the
abandonment of the Teresa off San Sal
vador. ;
Missed Hole Exploded.
Butte, Mont., Nov. 17. Robert Mo
Faddoiv William Henderson, JohnKel
ley and George Morgan were blown up
in the bottom of the Berkley shaft by
the explosion of a missed hole this morn
ing. The set of holes had been fixed
by the night shift before it went off,
and the men thought they heard all
the shots. It seems they made a mis
count, and it was several hours later
when the missed hole exploded, right
in the midst of the day shift. Mo
Fadden died this afternoon. The oth
ers are terribly out up, but will likely
'recover.
