Sagua shonld be taken to that city. A
large tobacco plantation, about three
miles south of Sagua, is ownedby Mr.
Gonzales, said to be an American citizen.'
The Spanish commander summoned
Gonzales to his headquarters,-and asked
why he bad failed ' to comply with the
captain-general's proclamation.- Mr.
Gonzales explained that the Spanish
'troops had- taken All his horses and
cattle, and he could not- cart his to
bacco. "
" 'I am satisfied with your explana
tion,' said the Spanish commander, 'yon
may return to your plantation!'

the lieutenant, 'and you , will, remain
there until I send for you.' .
"Shortly afterward the soldiers piled a
lot of dry grass and shavings about' the
house and aet fire to it. The smoke soon
compelled the family to leave, and as
they walked out of the rear door, the

Bolley, an aged pensioner, came to this
city from his home, seven.: miles north

they said, had been taken suddenly' eick

Chicago. Jane 22. The congregation
at the People's church, McVicker's
theater broke out with applause several
times daring the course of Dr. Thomas'
sermon Sunday.: He . was .speaking of
the cause of Cuba, It was while dwelling
on this point that the big congregation
interrupted by cheers and handclapping.
He said:; . -;'. -
. "The-slaughter of Christians in Arme
nia and the "buchery o patriot Cubans' by
Spain seems terrible to tbe present age,
because of its' nobler humanity.
It is not right that the Turks should
massacre the Armenians; the powers of
the "world should step in and stop it.
It .is not. right that Spain should crush
patriots in ' Cuba, and the .country
should send forth an army and navy, to
stop it. I wish that the plank in the
Bepublician platform had gone forth as
it was first published."' - . .

MORGAN'S BITTER COMMENT.
He Criticises- CleTeland's Action In tbe
Cuban Hatter.
. Washington, . June 22. It is with no
little concern that' the president and
Secretary Olney are awaiting the confi
dential report from Consul-General Lee
on the. situation in Cuba. Until the
reports have arrived, the authorities
will not, of coarse,discu88 their probable
action upon . them.
It may be stated that the situation
will have ' to be very grave and the
emergency great to induce the presi
dent to interfere in the Cuban affair at
the present time. ' The president has
been unmindful for some weeks. past
that the time was not far, distant when
the. United States, in the interest of its
citizens and. humanity, might find it
necessary - to interfere. However, he is
most .' anxious to: stave off action as long
is possible. . ' . w "
Brou Carelessness.
San Fbahcisco, Jane 22. The three
story building at the corner of Fifth
street and Mint avenue collapsed at 4
o'clock this afternoon, burying a dozen
persons in the rains. Two bodies have
been recovered, and it is feared there are
others in the debris.
CarelesBnees of the grossest sort is re
sponsible for the collapse of the lodging
houseand the loss ' of ' life' it caused.
From the statements of several people,
it is evident that the disaster had been
expected. "Warnings were given and un
heeded. " '.'"." ' " "

every means to obtain a showing! of their

one dreaded - disease that' science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires' a consti

Care is taken internal-, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
