Toinas Estrada Pal ma, the Cuban delegate, has received the following leiler from Geneial Max imo Gomez, commander-in-chief of tho Cuban army. The letter was written at tho general headquarters of tho Cuban army, at Iquara, being dated April 22. General Gomez says : "In order to make this letter short, I will copy from my diary "April 17. On approaching tho River Zaza, by the ford Valdiva, narrow and dangerous, both shores are occupied by a strong Spanish column composed of infantry, cavalry and artillery. I sus pended my march and explored the Hold. "April IS. I detach some shooters, so as to compel tho enemy to move, placing myself at tbe right and trying to have tho Spanish in the rear. The Spanish do not stir and tho light prevents further operations. 'April 19. I countermarch, always on my plan. The enemy advanced, con stantly under me fire and is brought to a difficult path whero its infantry can hardly move. Not more than three miles would we advance during tho whole day and when night comes fve are face to face. 'April 20. I coutinuo advancing, with nothing to spoil my plans. The enemy moves with the same caution as before. Night again stops our maneuvers, the Spanish seemingly not caring to press very much on us, and I, for my part, having in mind the necessity of spiring my men, so as to march with all their strength 'April 21 The enemy hardly ad vances halt a league toward me, and abandoning my steps, I campedat Iquara, one of the prominent entrenched fur If. In our march wo have described a semi circle of almost 10 leagues in diameter, which has taken us more than three days." 'I am told that the Spanish column is under Colonel Martiu, and notwith standing the many years of campaign that have made me familiar with the Spanish cruelties and atrocities in Ctiua, I have felt greater disgust and horrcr than ever before for this column's work. They sacrified numberless head of cattle, not eyen sparing the young. To deprive us of burses they kiil -ill that come within thei.- reach, joung and old, good and had. To complete the cruel procla mation, they order the concentration of the peasants, thus forcing them to abandon their homes and take refuge in the towns, whether provided for or not, their houfes have now been ordered to be burned and their cattle to be killed. And all this with their customary hypos- isy they describe as having been ac complished by ns. "I am fully confident of the success of our summer campaign and" have no doubt that we shall continue" receiving your valuable support, both materially and morally, through your efforts near the American government. It is useless to say anything about the operations in general. The reading of the Spanish pref s is enough to show which of the two armies leads the cam paign and which is on the defensive." Hawaiian Affairs. ThioJore W. Davies, ex-British Con sul at Honolulu, asd guardian of the Princes Kauilani of the Hawaiian Island, was among the arrivals on the Monowai yesterday. He is at the Pal ace. Tho gentleman is on his wav to Lon don, but will spend a month in different citie3 of this country and Canada. Talk ing about the Princess, whoso cause he so longed championed before and after the last revolution, when President Dole's government came into power, he said: The young princess is now at Men- tone, in the south of France, in school, fl was for a long time her guardian, but she is of ago now; in fact she 'is 20 in stead of IS years old. The princess has been at Mentone for some time and will probably remain there for eome lime yet. The legislature of Hawnii, which re cently convened, has voted'- her a pen siou of $2000 a year. It is the first money given her, forsince the revolution she has not received a penny. "No, the princess has not it large es tate of her own. She has only a little privato land. All the old estates of the royal family are now vested in Mr. Bishop, who is now there, His wife, who was of the royal family, gave away a good deal of property in different ways. "Do I think the present form of gov ernment in Hawaii is ierniaueut? Well, as I understand tho government it does not lay claim to crmanency as it is. It is simply seeking an alliance with the United States. Whatever may be the ultimate outcome of the matter it is not claimed for the government that it is permanent, though it might becomo per manent. "Tho first legislature, now in session, ia trying to arrange tho finances in a better way. It has only got fairly started thus far. "Hawaii gives evidence of bscoming ijuile prosperous. Thero will bo a larger crop of sugar this year than usual. For two j cars we have had drouths. This year has been particularly favorable and the sugar crop is largo and tho prices good. "Tho crop of Cuba has fallen from au average product cf 1,000,000 tons in an ordinary year to but 150,000 tons this year. The reason is because of tho war, which Iih almost totally ruined the sugar crop of Cuba. Tho Hawaiian peoplo are feeling encouraged at the prcsont prices for sugar, and you know there everything depends on sugar. "A great many peoplo in Hawaii have gone into coffco recently and the product of mil'ee down In those islands will he materially increased during the text few The Report Confirmed. London.

Treaty Broken. London, May 12. A special from Shanghai says: Russians, through an American agent named Smith, have taken possession of the disputed territory of Cheo Foo, over which the British claim rights. Six Rus sian warships are there as well as the Detroit, Yorktown,01ympiaand Machias of the United States navy. Great ex citement prevails at Chee Foo. A dis patch to the Globe from Shanghai says the Russians seized lot 12 of tho British concession at Chee Foo in defiance of all legal and treaty rights. The Globe's ed itorial comment contains this remark: "The seriousness of tho news from Chee Foo cannot be overestimated. Tho ac tion taken ia 'in direct contravention of the existing laws and treaties and can not be viewed by Great Britain as other than an unfriendly act." The Militia Called Out. Wahd.vei!, Ida., May II. A deter mined attempt was made at midnight lost night to burn down the mammoth Bunkei Hill concentrator at Wardner Junction. The concentrator was fired with tbe aid of boxes, sacks and kero sene, and at the same moment a por tion of the large flume was blown up by a charge of dynamite which 6hook up buildings at Kellog, nearly a mile dis tant. The dynamite was used a few hundred yards above Ihe mill. The ma chinery stopped and the electric liehts were extinguished two minutes later. The time selected was w hen most of the mill hands were at supper. One man, remaining as watchman, saw the fire as soon as it started and promptly extinguished it. The object was to get the concentrator to burning and prevent its extinguishment by cutting off tbe water supply. The state militia was called out, and remained out all nisht, but no arrests have been made as vet. In Florida. BiutoEXTOWN, Fla., May 13. Jack Trice, a negro, fooght 15 white men yes terday morning, killing James Hughes and Edward Sanchez, fatally wounding Henry Daniels and dangerously wound ing Albert flurtum. The battle occured at the negro's home, Palmetto, six miles south of here, and he fought to prevent his 14-year-old son from beinc "regulated" by tho whites. Monday afternoon Trice's eon and the son of Town Marshal Hughes, of Pal metto, fought, the white boy being badly beaten. Marehal Hughes was greatly enraged and at 3 o'clock yesterday morning he and 14 other white men went to Trice's house to "regulate" the negro's boy. The whites demanded that the boy be sent out. Trice refused, and the whites began firing. Trice re turned the fire, his first bullet killing Marshal Hughes. Edward Sanchez tried to burn the house, but was shot through the brain by Trice. Then the whites tried to batter in the door with a loi, which resulted in Henry Daniels getting a bullet in the stomach that will kill liiin. Tho regulators then ran, a final bullet from Trice's ritle striking Albeit Buffum iu the back. The whites secured reinforcements and returned to Trice's homo at sunrise, vowing to burn father and sou at the stake, but their in tended victims had lied, and only Trice's old mother was in the house. The old woman was driven out and tho honse burned. Pos-ses with bloodhounds Lre chasing Trice aud the boy, and they will be lynched if caught.

To the voters and taxpavers of Doug las county, Sirs: As we are nominated for legislative honors by the people's party, it is a pleasure as well as a duty to let the voters know how we stand rela tive to the issues directly effecting your interest. If elected we pledge ourselves to work for the following measures : 1. Free coinage of silver at the ratio of 10 to 1, the constitutional money and the money.uf our fathers. !. We will Bupport only a silver can didate for U. S. Senator. 3. We will work for the re-enactment f the mortgage tax law under exemption from tax of honest indebtedness where a corresponding credit is shown. 4. United States seuators by direct vole of people. . Initiative and referendum, making tbe people independent masters of the legislature and the legislature a depend ent servant of the people. G Abolishment of Oregon National Guard costing $50,000, and railroad com mission 25,000 to tbe taxpayers yearly. Several other commissions should be abolished. We think that our friends will agree with us when we say that the employing one hundred and eighty clerks to do the work of thirty is an outrage on the people and a disgrace to the state of Oregon. This outrageous extravagance must be paid with 40-cent wheat, 6-cent wool and 3 cent prunes. 7. We recognize the great combina tions of capital that ore here; they are a normal form of business enterprise of the day. They have great advantages that can effect great benefits for society. So ciety, therefore, ought not to destroy them. But as they have also great power for evil that threatens society, we should l wise enough and manly enough to control them. Therefore, since our railroad corporations own one-sixth of the entire propertj of the country, it is suggestive that we act quickly along the line of reform. Respectlully, C. S, Jackson, J. F.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the lost fewyears was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local rem edies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it in curable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and there fore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is tbe only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally iu doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer oue hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address, F. J.
