On Thursday, March 8. the people of
Astoria will have the prlvelege of see

Joaquin Miller needs no Introduction

world, for he grew up In Oregon and
spent much of his life here. Of his South Africa is to leave the republic

"The amalgamation of the diamond

Information has reached the military
authorities here of desperate fighting
between the government troops and th"
Maya Indians during the last seven
days. The lighting began on February
21, when a force of about 600 Indians
attacked a regiment of General Brave's
troops between Saban and Okop.
The battle lasted several hours and
resulted In but slight losses to the gov
ernment forces. Five soldiers were
killed and two officers and 15 soldiers
wounded. The Indians retreated to
their Intrenchmenta, carrying with
them over 100 Killed and wounded.
On the following day another brisk
skirmish wax brought about by an ad
vanced detachment of government
troops attempting to reconnotter the
position of the Indians. Three Mex
icans were killed In that fight,
On February 16, a force of fully 1,100
Mayas attacked the outposts of the
government troops and after driving
in the sentries a desperate attack was
nudi on the Intrenehments.
The Indians were armed with Krag
Jorgensens, which they had obtained
from traders, and they poured a hot
fire into the Mexican camp. Several
pieces of llsht artillery ttere brouisht
into use by the Mcxicuni and the rebels
were driven back. Their losses are
believed to have been heavy. Ten sol
diers were wounded and one killed.
The Indians have established their
mi In camp in an almost Impregnable
forest.
The rebels have free communication
with the people of British Honduras
who are said to be In sympathy with
their cause.
THE PBTBRS REVERSE.
One of the Worst Slaughters of Brit
ish Troops During the War.
NEW YORK, Feb. JS.-liut for the
surrender of tieneral Cronje, which
overshadowed the news from Natal,
England would be shuddering over the
British reverses at Railway Hill, where
the Innlsdcilli'ig Fusiliers were caught
in a Boer trap and slaughtered. The
London Mali's rorresimndent. under
date of Pleters, February describes
th engagement:
"Last night the Innlskllllng Fusiliers,
mixed with some of the Dublin Fusil
iers and the Connaught rangers, at
tempted to carry Railway Hill from
Fitters. They were under n continu
ous lire through which they passed up
the heavy broken ground to the first
Boer trench. Half way up the hill the
Boers retreated to the crest and then
came back .n either, tlank of the Irish
troops, enilludtng th-.- captured trench
with a savage cross as well as a dlr.t-t
fire.
"All night and until nine o'clock In
the morning our men held the position
under a ceasless tire and at terrible
cost At roll call only live officers and
one hundred men answered to their
names.
"Colonel Thackeray and Major San
ders, of the Innisklllings; Colonel Slt
weii of the Dublin Fusiliers: Captain
Maitland of the Second Cordons and
Colonel Thorold of the. Welsh Fusiliers
were killed. Two hundred and fifty-two
of the rank and file were killed and
wounded.
"General Lyttleton's brigade relieved
them at ten o'clock this morning, when
the Boer artillery pounded the troops
holding the center kopjes without a
moment's pause, but with very little ef
fect." HAWAIIAN BILL POSTPONED.
Strong Democratic Speech In the Sen
ate Favoring Expansion.
WASHINGTON, Feb. Notwith
standing the agreement made by the
oenate to vote on the Hawaiian gov
ernment bill at today's session, the
final vote on the measure was post
poned until 4 o'clock tomorrow.
Practically no progress was made on
ttje bill today, although it was under
consideration nearly four hours. Al
drich, chairman of the financial com
mittee, at the opening of the session
made an explanation of the work of the
conference on the financial measure,
his statement resulting In an unex
pected and spirited debate.
One of the feaures of the session was
the speech of McLaurln (dem.) of
South Carolina, on the Philippine ques
tion. He is the first democrat in the senate
to declare himself for expansion. He
scouted what he called the "bugbear
of Imperialism," with which some of
his colleagues were trying to frighten
the people. He declared the question
was not one of politics and maintained
the acquisition of the Philippines would
be of immense advantage to this
country, especially the South, by open
ing to the United States the trade
of the Orient.
ROOT GOING TO CUBA.
Secretary of War Will Make Sonv; Per
sonal Investigations.
NEW YORK, Feb. 2S.-A special to
the Times from Washington s&ys:
It is reported that Secretary Root Is
to leave the city today (Wednesday)
for a trip to Cuba with Mrs. Root and
Miss Root.
Secretary Root could not be seen to
verify this report but it is ascertained

plated a visit to the city of Havana
und perhaps a more extended tour of
Cuba to Inform himself about some
phases of the administration of the
Inland, that the reports of officers on
duty do not fully present to him.
The intended trip has not been talked
about at the war department and offi
cers on duty near to the f-ecretary ad
mitted tonight that they had not been
informed of the Intenti jn of the secre
tary to go to Cuba.
MORE GUNBOATS ADDED.
The Oregon, Monterey and Manadnock
Will Be Relieved From the Phil
ippine Fleet.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.-The fur
ther increase by the acquisition of
three more Spanish gunboats, of Ad
miral Watson's naval force In the Phil
ippines as reported by the admiral yes
terday, will make it poslble for the
navy department at an early day to
recall some of the larger vessels now
tn the Philippines, It I probable that
the Oregon, the Monterey and Manad
nook will soon be ordered home.
ALL HOPE ABANDONED.

NEW POLITICAL COMBINATION.
Monday Night's Telegram.
Practically the Mitchell republicans
are no more, at least they have no par
ty organization and many have re
turned to the true fold.
A federal official, w ho has fx en an
ardent Mitchell man, declared that
there are about 4'WO votes left of his
former jsHoclut-?, and Intimated that
If the demo-rats will be careful and
put up good people on their ticket, that
there Is an excellent chance of electing
city and county olllcers. This tends
to corrobjrate the rumor that has been
prevalent for some tlroe that the demo
crats will make a deal with '.he rem
nants of the Mitchell republicans.
Street gossip says that the democrats
will sacrifice their legislative ticket In
return for support In local affairs. The
deal Is figured out In this manner:
A year hence the term of United
States Senator George McBrlde will ex
pire, and the senior senator from Ore
gon is desirous of being returned to
the upper house of congress. Members
of the next legislature will choose Sen
ator McBrlde's successor, If he cannot
Induce them to select him to succeed
himself. Members of the legislature
will be elected next June, and In fur
therance of the senator's plans It la
necessary to go to work early and pack
as many Eupporters In the legislature
as possible. Multnomah county will
have nineteen votes In the next legis
lative body, owing to the recent reap
portionment, making nineteen out of
the total of ninety votes. It has been
figured out, giving the benefit of every
doubt to Senator McBrlde, that his
maximum strength will bo twenty
nine, divided Into twenty In the house
and nine in the senate. This would br?
seventeen short of election. It Is pos
sible that one or two more votes can
be pl'-'ked up In counties now consid
ered unfavorable to McBrlde's re-election,
but In any event Multnomah must
be had. Multnomah has some hold
over senators, so that the entire nine
teen votes could not go to McBrlde. To
make a combination with the demo
crat in this county is McBrlde'g only
hope of (salvation. It Is understood
that the leaders of the democrat! are
willing to swap or commit their legisla
tive ticket for McBrlde, providing
itrvtigth Is gained for their county and
city nominees. At present, it Is un
derstood, that both crowds are ready
to make or receive overtures to this
uid, It being a purs case of ''Unrkis It
wlllln."

tion of titer being 4HK) votes ready to
swing towards the democrat ran bt
