A DECISIVE BATTLE
The Nicarapan Insurgents Were Vic
torious.
A RAKING FIRE OF ARTILLERY
Large Numbets of Government Troops
Killed and WoundedUnited
States Warship Needed.
New York, May 25. The' Herald's
special cable from Granada, Nicaragua,
gives additional details of the decisive
battle of Barranca Pass, Mav 19, near
Masaya. Reliable data show that the
government's losses were 155 killed and
267 wounded. This was largely due to
the terrible raking fire of the revolution'
ary artillery, which occupied a strong
position on Coyetepe hill and threw out
its murderous messengers of death with
scentific precision and deadly effect.
The revolutionists outfought the govern
ment troops. The half-paid and undis
ciplined soldiers were in no sense a
match for the well-paid and well-fed
troops which have joined the revolution.
Carrying away their wounded with them ,
Sacasa's troops were finally forced to
leave the field. When the fight had
ended they filled three cars with their
wonnded soldiers and sent them back to
Managua. None of the revolutionists
were injured. The real battle, however,
was fought on May 20. It began with
heavy cannonading at 8 o'clock in the
morning. Thirteen hundred govern
ment troops attempted to fight their way
out to the position held by the insurg
ents, who numbered a little more than
1 ,000, and were commanded by General
Barranca, but they attempted ,what it
was almost impossible to accomplish.
The revolutionists held so strong a posi
tion in the mountain pass that a much
larger attacking force would have been
required to dislodge, even if they had
not been backed by artillery. Supported
by their field pieces on Coyetepe hill,
however, they made it so uncomfortable
for the attacking party that the enemy
was forced to retire with heavy loss.
Two hours later the government forces
had been re-formed, and were ordered
again to the attack, and after an hour's
terrific fighting the government f?r?es
were forced to retreat. Disorganization
and demoralization prevailed in the
ranks. In Managua it is reported that
200 government troops were about to
desert and go over to the revolutionists
when their plans were revealed and they
were imprisoned. President Sacasa is
reported to have fled to Corinto and is
ready to go on board a steamer and
leave the country the moment he is con
vinced he cannot win. His government
is in a desperate situation, and has now
little chance to gain what it has lost.
The presence of a United States warship
in Nicaraguan waters is needed for pro
tection of American interests.
TBI CARSON MINT.
OvIi( to tSic Expense There Will Be
Suspension of Coinage.
Washington, May 25. Owing to the
small amount of gold bullion deposited,
about $100,000 per month, and the heavy
expenses of coinage
at the mint at Car
son City, Nev.,
Secretary. Carlisle
has directed the
suspension of coin
age at that mint
after June 1. Gold
and silver bullion
will, however, be
JOHN GARU5LE and refining. Gold
deposits will be paid for in coin or fine
bars as preferred by the depositor. Re
turns for silver deposits will be made in
uuparted or fine bars as desired. Pur
chasers of silver bullion under the act of
July 14, 1890, will be continued as here
tofore. The forces in the mint at Phila
delphia and New Orleans will probably
be reduced. With the suspension of
coinage at Carson City the coinage of
silver dollars will be discontinued for the
present, as there is no demand for this
class of money.
The Salmon Industry.
Astokia, May 25. The fish catch to
day reached the 5,000 mark, the boats
averaging 9 salmon per boat, with an
average weight of 23 pounds. The
trapmen are retrograding, even from
their meager catch of yesterday. In
fact, the principal feature of this year's
work will undoubtedly be the extinction
of the trap industry on the lower river.
Reports from above Tongue point show
the same state of things. The catch for
the season to date reaches 205,610 fish
or about 67,750 cases, Astoria's contri
bution being 47,946 cases. Fish for the
past six days have averaged 23 1-5
pounds, and indications are that the
next seven days will bring the weight
up to 24 pounds. Notwithstanding the
talk about big fish, it is a fact that only
5 per cent of the catch so far has aver
aged over 40 pounds each The fisher
men, however, are making excellent
wages and doing better than they have
done for the last four vears.
HDgh M. La Rue.
Hugh M. La Rue, superintendent of
the bureau of vi ticulture, of the Colum
bian exposition, has
been identified with
the agricultural and
wine industries of
California since the
war. He was born
at Elizabeth town,
JfJIilk Ky., in 1830. In
V 1830 he removed to
Missouri, where he
received a common
school education. In
1857 he planted a
seventy-five acre orchard in California,
which was at the time the largest in the
state. Since 1867 ho has been promi
nent in California politics, serving as
sheriff of Sacramento in 1873, and as
member of the state constitutional con
vention in 1879. For several terms he
was speaker of the state house of repre
sentatives. For seven years he was presi
dent of the California State Agricultural
society. For the past ten years he has
been superintendent of the State Board
of Agriculture. Mr. La Rue was ap
pointed to his present position Sept. 1,
1892.
Curiosities of Glass Making.
St. Louis Republic.
The art of glass manufacture goes back
into antiquity to a time "when the mind
of man runneth not to the contrarv."
yet we cannot penetrate the mists which
hang over the infancy of what has for
ages been a useful industry. Its original
discovery is alleged, on the authority of
several reputable writers, to have been
the result-of an accident in which some
nitrum (supposed by some to have been
salt) was fused with sand. The date of
this event is not even approximately
given, but it is said to have taken place
on the banks of the Belus, in Palestine,
where some mariners had landed and
were cooking their meals, using blocks
of nitrum to hold their pots in position'.
Sir Gardner Wilkinson gives a cut
of a piece of Egyptian sculpture work
which represents two-glass blowers ply
ing their art in a manner which strikes
one as being surprisingly like that prac
ticed at the present time. Sir. Gardner
informs us that this sculpture was ex
ecuted 3,500 years ago, during the reign
of Benj. Hassan. Theban paintings and
sculptures, which are known to date
back to the time of Exodus, 1,400 years
B. C, show glass drinking vessels of
delicate patterns and fine workmanship,
in some instances rivaling similar vessels
of modern make. Strabo and Josephus
both affirm that the Egyptian glass
workers were so well skilled in their art
that they imitated the amethyst and
other precious stones to perfection.
Malleable glass was one of the secret arts
of the ancient, the formula for making it
being now reckoned as lost. Strabo
mentions a cup of glass which could be
hammered into any desirable shape, the
material of which it was composed being
as ductile as lead.

years' standing. Used three, bottles of
Electric Bitters and seven boxes of
Bucklen's Arnica Salve, and his leg is

THE SUNDAY OPENING
AttorDBy-General Olney Issues His
Instructions.
WILL APPLY FOR AN INJUNCTION
District Attorney Gilchrist Lost No
Time in Complying With In
structions. Washington, May 25. As a result of
United States District Attorney Gil
christ's talk with Attorney-General
Olney yesterday, he left last night with
explicit instructions, if he should find
on arrival at Chicago that the plan was
still adhered to to open the world's fair
Sunday, to "Present the matter to the
federal court and ask for an injunction,
or any other legal process which the
facts would warrant, and which wonld
prevent a violation of the laws of the
United States."
District Attorney Gilchrist lost no
time in complying with the instructions
of the attorney -general. He telegraphed
ahead to the assistant attorney-genera,
instructing him to prepare a bill for an
njunction restraining the management
of the fair from opening the gates next
Sunday. The bill will be filed as soon
-as it can be prepared, probably Friday
or Saturday.
Forced a Check.
J . P. Wager, at one time a prominent
man in Oregon, is confined in the county
jail in Portland to answer to the grand
jury for the crime of obtaining money
under false pretenses. Wager gave C.
Donoghue of that city a check bearing
the forged signature of George H.
Moffitt, manager of the Portland Tele
gram. Mr. Wager was a senator from
Umatilla county in the legislature of
1887 and 1889, and was the brightest
and most eloquent of that body. He
was editor and proprietor of the Pendle
ton East Oregonian for several years
and had the honor of being the only
democrat whom H. W. Scott, of the
Portland Oregonian, thought a foe in an
worthy of his steel. Wager was em
ployed upon the editorial staff of the
Evening Telegram a few months and
then tried to practice law at Condon,
Morrow county. Drink has caused his
downfall. Statesman.
A. Woman Burned to Death.
Rqckxin, Cal., May 25. At 2:40 this
morning, fire started in the kitchen of
the Davies hotel ; its origin is unknown.
It burned 25 buildings, including two
thirds of the business section of the
town. The total loss is $75,000, insurance
about one-tbird. Miss Alice Irish, of
Georgetown, working at the Davies hotel,
got out once, but went back for her
clothes, was caught in the flames and
burned to death. A heroic attempt was
made by William Davies and Will Landis
to save her, but the building collapsed.
The other occupants of the hotel barely
escaped with their lives.
A Woman Cremated.
Atlanta, Ga., May 25. Dora Schun,
a woman of bad character, recently had
her thoughts turned to the evil of her
ways, and became convinced that burn
ing was her lot. - East night she decided
to settle her fate at once. Seizing a
lighted lamp, she smashed it on her
bead. The oil fell on her clothing, and
she was soon a pillar of fire. Her inju
ries were such that she died todav.
