She ar rived here August 19 from Havana and went lnto drv-dock, wnere ner null was scraped, some paint was put on, and she received some minor repairs, It was siren out that she eame here -simply to be painted, but that did not satisfv those who reasoned that it was a loner distance to travel merely for a coat of paint.

The TForW says; Another expedition has landed in Cuba; , near Santiago. The news was received - vesterday at the head? quarters in this city, and even after mianignt aispatcnes aoout it were still coming in. ' ' Although many expeditions have gone to Cuba, the landing of this party is considered an event of special im portance, and a special force of Cuban printers was at work last night put, tins some of the particulars into type for a circular in Spanish, to be distri buted broadcast today. The expedition left Philadelphia on Wednesday night of last week with a steamer bought by the revolutionary party in tnis city. It was commanded by Francisco Don Sanchez Eeheverra, who had with him Somen, 200,0fj0 cartridges, 300 rifles and a large supply of medicine and provisions. This body oi men win oin oenerai AntonloMaceo's force. - Eeheverra be longs to one of Santiago's best-known families, is 50 years of age. tall and athletic. He came to this country al most two months ago from Vera Cruz, Mexico, where he went after being ex pelled from Cuba for participating Jn thf revolution in Santiago. NO MOPE f OB THE MINERS. Fourteen and Not Thirteen Lost Their Lives In Colarado. Central City, Colo., Aug. 30. Little has been done in regard to the mine disaster. Both the Americus and Sleepy Hollow mines are filled with water within 400 feet of the surface, and it i$ steadily rising, notwithstand ing the fact 5,000 gallons per hour' is being taken out, with a 500-gaIlon bucket. It is believed that a pump will have to be put in before any head way can be made. -It is new known that fourteen lives were lost. The accident is the result of a dis pute between the owners of the two mines and others adjoining regarding the expense of drainage. The Fisk, Bob Tail and Gregory have been abandoned on account of the accumu lated water, and'the breaking of a par tition wall precipitated the water' in to Sleepy Hollow and Americus. The state metaliferous mine inspec tor today notified the owners of the last-named properties that their mines must be at once drained, regardless of the dispute, so the bodies of the drowned miners may be reached. With the present facilities this will take from five to six weeks. Barnnm Never Ontdld It Montreal, Aug. 30. Charles Greenwood, an electrician here, who has often earned an odd penny by in ventions of one kind and another, last Thursday allegedly caught in Black river, a tributary of the St. Lawrence, a sea serpent which looked like a monstrous conger eel. It was thirty three feet long, and in some parts of the body three feet in circumference. At first local papers did not take it up, but wnen they did it was done with a vengence. Thousands came to see it, and it was pickled and could not be touched, it looked for all the world like the real article. Wednesday afternoon Magistrate Dugan ordered Constable Bishop to break the glass tank which contained the serpent. He cut open the beast and found it was made of cotton painted and varnished, and stuffed with sawdust. It was to have been shipped to New York yes terday. Manitoba's New Governor. - Montreal, AugC 30. The authen tic statement that Hon. James J. Pat terson, minister without portfolio, will be sworn in on Monday as lieutenant governor of Manitoba, is creating great excitement here, especially among the French Canadians.- The term of office of Dr. Schultz is finished, but it was generally supposed that in return for turning out the members of the liberal local government he would get a second term. It - now appears that Schultz has refused to do this, and that for these reasons Patterson has received the appointment, and will be expected to chastise Green way and his cabinet if they refuse to come to terms on the school question. - . . Howard Fltesel'a Remains. Philadelphia, Aug. 30. A local rwtrwr aavs Holmes admits that the re- mains at the house in Irvington, In- ) I dianapolis, are those of Howard Pite- inis ne torn nis counsel, air Shoemaker, during the latter's long conference with him in prison. But Holmes savs ho did not murder th boy, but that the crime was committed oy another. In Holmes' statements about this phase of the case, the mys terious Hatch comes to the surface again. Holmes believes, so he savs that Howard Pitezel was killed and that Hatch murdered him, as he did the girls in Toronto. Holmes claims that when the time comes, and he is anxious that it will come soon, he will oe able to prove, beyond a doubt, that at the time the detectives say Howard was killed, he (Holmes) was in Detroit witti his wile. Holmes says he has al ways been suspicious of Hatch, and has long suspected him of doing away h it'ii me uoy. The New Irish Movement. New Youk, Aug. .?0. The friends of the new Irish movement, which is to be launched in Chicago by the great international convention of men of the race, to be hold there toward the close of the coming month, are getting down to active work in this city. A meet ing of the committee of arrangements was held last night. Communications were read from 85 nationalist clubs and other Irish societies in the city in relation to credentials lor tne conven tion. rue leaders in the movement sav tney are contident tnat not since the Fenian days has there been anything to equal the enthusiasm that will be created at the coming convention. which will be the largest of its kind ever held in this oouutrv. Delegates are coming even Irom tar away AUS' trialia, from the Argentine republic. and from other South American coun tries. A letter was read from Senator P. V. Fitzpatrick, of Chicago, announcing that preparations would be made thero to give a reception on a grand scale to the delegates. Waller's Case. Paris, Aug. 30 Estaffette rrotests against the statements of some Ameri can payees relative to ex-Consul Waller, saying that if Frenchmen sold arms to enemies of the United States Americans would never tolerate any interference on the part of the cabinets or murope. "Moreover, continued Estafotte, "we need pay no attention to Idle complaints of these American papers. Indeed. Waller ought to have been immediately shot for his glaring treason." "THE NEW WOMAN," Mrs. Ballington Booth's Address Before the Solvation Army. New York, Sept. 2. The address of Mrs. Ballington Booth before the Salvation Army, now encamped at Prohibition Park, Staien island, on The New Woman," is attracting considerable attention here. Mrs. Booth last night said in part: "The revolting creature, gaudily at tired in man's clothing, possessed of strange notions about the home, wife hood and motherhood, scorned and shunned by the men, is not my idea of the new woman. The new woman, according to the popular acceptance, peaks of children as 'brats says they tire and afrsrravate her, and so she bestows all her love upon some ugly little pug-nosed dog, which she carries in one of her mannish pockets. She is also, a manhater, and in going forth to seek emancipation and .'ft' world-wide rule for her sex, she declares it to be her mission to down and belittle him. A3 for religion, it is too simple for her strong mind. She is entirely indepen dent and a free thinker. 'If you were to ask me what . the Salvation Army "would do with the new woman," continued Mrs. Booth, in reply, I would say we would first of all take her dress and change it. Out of her huge sleeves we would make dresses for the ragged children in the slums, and the other garments worn by her, which I forbear to men tion, we would give to the sex to whom they belong. Her books, niieq witq pernicious, literature, we would throw nthe nre along witn ner cigarettes and chewing gum, and after this I think we would prescribe a strong willed, self-assertive husband, who would teach her that there is some- thinir to honor in the other sex. '1 believe in tne advanced woman: I believe she is capable of making as good a mother and wife as though she had never stepped upon the platform, or been admitted to the bar. Let the education of women go on, only while you are training them, do hot forgef to develop the heart," " Mrs Booth said, however, that in Denver a corps of mounted "cavalry woman" had been organized and were doing effective work in the mountains of Colorado, under the leadership of Staff Captain Blanche Cox. There the army caaries on much of its work among the miners and th.e use of horses was found to be almost a neces? sity, EXORBITANT CLAIMS, , Some That Have Been FUed Under the Indian Depredations Act. Chamberlain.-S. D., Sept. 2. R. P. Sperlin, agent for the court of claims, who.is at present visiting this state, says that claims of about $44,000,000 have been filed under the Indian de predations act of congress. Texas beads the list, with New Mexicq a good second. Some of these claims are just; some exorbitant, some fraud ulent. As an example, two Mexican gran dees of New Mexico claimed to have lost 15,000 sheep valued at $2 per head, and not only made affidavits to that effect, but had 15 or 20 of their em ployes do the same thing. It seemed to be a clear case of loss, but the court objected to paying $2 per head for Mexican sheep. Mr. Sperlin was ac cordingly sent to New Mexico by the court to compromise on $1.50 per head, but the Mexicans declined all overtures to arbitrate. As this was Mr, Spernin's first case, he was anxious to make a record and began an investigation, which resulted in establishing the fact that the Mexicans never owned more than 1500 sheep at any one time, and that a few hundred head were ac tually stolen by Navajo Iddinas, but at different times and places than claimed. An enterprising Rear Butte ranch man had filed a claim for the loss of l.J0 tons of hay at $200 per ton. alleged to have been destroyed by Indians in March, 1877. At the time hay was selling in that region for $20 to $30 per ton, A Costly Fire. San Antonio, Tex., Sept. 2. Fira broke out in the four-story furniture store of L, P. Peck & Co. and the en tire stock was consumed and the build ing destroyed. The loss on the furni ture is between $50,000 and $63,000; on the fixtures $15,000 and on the build ing $45,000. The Alamo trunk factory adjoining suffered damage to stock of $5000. The Texas Millinery Company also suf fered heavy damage "o stock. The losses were partly covered by insur ance. Gone ap in Smoke. Rochester, N. Y-, Sept. 2. The wholesale clothing store in the Levy block, occupied by Shiel, Rosenbaum & Stefel, was burned this morning. The total loss is estimated at $115,000, of which the above firm loses. 975,000. Three other wholesale stores, owned by Kockenthal, White, Marks & Co., Kaufman, Kinkenspiel & Co. and L. Adler & Co., lose respectively, $25,000, 8 0,000 and $5000. All are insured.

Seven companies of the state militia have been ordered out, and are moving toward Ishpeming tonight. The news is gladly received by the merchants and many workinsrmen who have been out of employment for seven weeks, and who have not the courage to op pose the strikers. Four cars of shovel men arrived today by special train. and are quartered at the Lake Ange lina, l,ake buperior and Cleveland mines.

There was a large meeting of strikers in thiscity today, and much excitement was shown, due to the news that the shovels would be started Monday. INQTJIBT AT FOO CHOW. At the Present Bate the Trials Will Be quire a Tear. ; New York, Aug. 31. The World will print tomorrow the following cablegram irom f oo enow, China: The commission of inquiry into the Hwang Wa massacre, sitting at Ku Cheng, progresses slowly. Over 100 arrests have been made. There have been 12 capital convictions. The vice roy retards the work, refusing to give the perfect discretion. There is a de lay over each question referred to the viceroy. The intention is to exhaust the patience of the commission,: At the present rate the trials will require a year. Tne imperial edict issued commanding severe measures is a mere blind. Rioters at Hok Chiang attacked the Christians and wounded four and de stroyed their houses. The dangerous situation is the fault of the magistrate who issued a procla mation slandering the Christians. Un less America can be induced to take vigorous measures, it is feared that there will be general rioting. British weakness encourages the Chinese. The American government Is the only hope. Consul Hixson is energetic. All the Americans have arrived at FooChow. IMPROVEMENT noted. An Optimistic Report by R. O, Dunn In Us Weekly Review of Trade. New YORK, Aug. 31. R. G. Dunn & Company's Weekly Review of Trade will say: Improvement in market and prices continues, and where a few months ago everybody was nursing the faintest hopes of recovery, it has now come to be the only question In what branches, if any, the rise in prices and the in crease of business may go too far. A strong conservative feeling is find ing expression, not controlling the market or industries, but warning against a too rapid expansion and rise. lh some directions the advance in prices clearly checks future business. But encouraging features are still Eowerful. Exports of gold continues, ut are met by syndicate deposits and are expected to cease soon. Anxieties about the monetary future no longer hinder. Crop prospects, except the cotton, have somewhat improved during the week. Important steps toward the recognization of great railroads give hope to investors. Labor troubles are for the moment less threatening and some of importance have been, defini tely settled. The industries are not only doing better than anybody had expected, but are counting, upon a great business for the rest of the year.

A large plate-glass window in the store of Michael Lett, on German town avenue, was split from top to bottom. Similar cases are reported from other sections of the city.

Lightning Killed the Driver of the Hearse ,y-V smd Created a Panic Baltimore, Sept. 2. A funeral pro cession had just entered the cemetery at Mount Wmans last evening when a terrific thunder storm broke, When the lightning was sharpest and the thunder, most deafening, one corpse was taken to the burial ground and another was taken back. The hearse had stopped at an open grave when there was a vivid flash, followed by a deafening peal, and the driver of the hearse, William Alsup, fell back dead on top of the vehicle. One of the horses was stunned, but quickly recov ered, and. with his mate, dashed madly through the cemetery, dragging the hearse along until it collided with a tree. The colored people who at tended the funeral became panic- stricken. The horses drawing 17 carriages also became frightened and a feneral stampede was narrowly averted y the drivers. The lightning played all about the cemetery where the mourners and attendants were, strik ing a grave and shattering the tomb stone. The shrieks of the women rang above the noise of the rain and thun der, and such of the men as retained their wits did what they could to. quiet their fears, having all they could do to keep them from rushing out of the carriages into the drenching rain. The burial took place as soon as the storm was over. International Money. LONDON, Sept. 2.

At the same time, I am in favor of an inter national conference upon condition the members be not delegated to repre sent fixed views, but sent witn free minds." Big Merchandise Freightage West.
