Key West, Fla., Jan. 12.— Copies of
the Vose de Cuba received here show
that that newspaper recently published
an extra, advising all loyal Spaniards
not to buy the Madrid papers. The
claim is made that the attacks of the
Madrid papers on Weyler have a ten­
dency to do him more harm thau the
attacks of the Patria and El Porvenir,
of New York.
Several young men who recently
joined the insurgents at Manzanillo
report the existence of widespread dis­
affection among the followers of Rabi
and Calixto Garcia.
Advices have been received from
Trinidad that several young men who
recently joined the insurgents at Sancti
Spiritns report that a number of days
since Maximo Gomez was encamped
near La Campania. On the 1st of
January, it is asserted, the insurgent
leaders, Jose Miguel and Gomez, passed
by the Mapos plantation, in company
with other Cuban insurgent command­
ers.
Over 500 families are reported to
have been burned out of their houses,
ow ing to the recent orders to destroy
the property, and even the homes of
pacificos. Many of these persons have
been unable to save even their clothing.
Mothers are carrying their babes in
their arms, and are without food and
resting places. Old, grayheaded men
and women are barely able to move,
owing to the prolonged |>eriod of suffer­
ing, and many of them will probably
etarvo to death.
The magnificent sugar estate of Santa
Rosa has been burned by the insurgents.
For several days the horizon lias been
brilliantly illuminated by tho destroy­
ing fires. Many of the canefields in
this vicinity are still burning.

Scranton, Pa., Jan. 12.— A Hun­
garian christening at Mayfield, this
county, had the usual bloody ending
M’hicli attends such affairs, for as a re-
suit one man is dead, two are dying
and five others are badly carved.
Strong liquor flowed freely at the
christening, and soon many of the men
were mad with drink. Seven of the
participants in the fracas went to the
house of Lucetz Krutchas. Krutchns
soon had to resent an insult to his
wife, and knives flashed out.
Mrs. Krutchas dashed out the light
and fled from the room. A fearful
fight followed in the dark. The drink-
maddened men cut and stabbed each
other and rolled together on the floor
in deadly grapple.
Finally a constable and posse broke
into the house and when a light was
had a ghastly picture was presented.
Tiie furniture was battered and broken
and blood was
everywhere, and
stretched on the floor wore eight ap­
parently dead and «lying men, groaning
and cursing. A physician was hastily
summoned. Krutchas Mas so terribly
cut that he died in a short time. The
injuries of the other men show the sav­
age nature of the fight.

Salt Lake, Jan. 12.— The sale of the
Oregon Short Line & Utah Northern
railway, under the consoldiated mort­
gage of August 1, 1889, was made today
; under direction of John B. Cleland,
court commissioner.
Samuel Carr,
Walter C. Oakman and Henry G.
Nieholls, representing the reorganiza­
tion committee, purchased the property
for $5,447,500.
The Utah Southern
road was bid iu by the same parties foi
$763,000.
They also purchased tht
Utah Southern extension, for $975,000.
W. H. Bancroft w ill be general man­
ager of the company.
The transfer of tho Oregon Short
Line & Utah Northern, with property
lying in five of the Western states, was
of great interest to railroad men in the
intermountain country.
The eventt
were the legal forms by which the sub­
branches of the Union Pacific trunk
system Mere foreclosed and bid in by
the holders of liens upon them, and are
to be followed by a reorganization of

to
Washington, Jan. 13.— Tho Indian
appropriation bill for the next fiscal
year was completed today by the house
committee on Indian affairs, and re­
ported to the house by Sherman. The
bill carries a total of $7,465,000, which
is somewhat less than the appropriation
for the current year. The allowance
for schools, however, is increased $20,-
000, and provision is nuule for starting
tiie new schools at Chamberlain and
Rapid City, 8. D ., whose establish­
ment was provided for by the last bill.
There is au item continuing the
Dawes commission, with special sal­
aries and compensation, and $40,000
is given for the exi>ense8 of tiie com­
mission of citizens who serve without
compensation. The claims of tiie old
settlers against Western Cherokee In­
dians, which have been a troublesome
question for years, are settled by a
clause directing the secretary of the
interior to pay $86,200 on projier requi­
sition.
Three hills for the ratification of
the treaties to secure Indian lands are
incroporated in the bill.
One is
Flynn’s bill to ratify tho agrément
with the Comanche, Kiowa and Apache
tribes of Oklahoma, by which the gov­
ernment is to secure their reservations
for $2,000,000.
Tiie second is for
ratification of the treaty of 1892 with
| tho Turtlo Mountain Chippewas, of
North Dakota, for their lands. Repre­
sentative Mondell’s project for making
i a government reservation of the Hot
Springs on tho Shoshone reservation,
in Wyoming, for which a treaty lias
been made with the Indians, is includ­
ed.
j One of tho most important features of
the hill is tiie incorporation in it of a
hill recently introduced by Sherman of
New York, which provides for three
! Indian commissioners to succeed the
present commissioner and deputy com­
missioner. One of tiie three is to lie
an army officer, and the office of deputy
commissioner is to ha done away with.

Ban Francisco, Jun. 12.— It is re­
ported in legal circles that the supreme
court may send tiie Durrant case hack
for retrial. A t least one of the Jus­
tices is sa ill to have openly said tiie evi­
dence against Durrant for tiie murder
of Blanche Lament was insufficient to
convict.
He believes Durrant was
found guilty to satisfy the popular
clamor, and if lie can influence tiie
other justices to tho same view, a new
trial may be ordered, as was in the
case o f Dr. Milton Bowers, who now
walks the streets u free man. Although
the Durrant cuse is now under submis­
sion, Attorney-General Fitzgeralil lias
not filed his brief in reply to the de­
fendant's brief. When that is filed
there w ill be a defendant’s brief in re­
turn. Two months may elapse before
the all-important decision of the su­
preme court is handed down.

Fort Worth, Tex., Jan. 12.— A head-
end collision ocurred today between
two freight trains on the Gulf, Colo­

miles north of here. One train was
standing on the main line waiting for
the other to tnke the siding. The en­
gineer of the south-bound train pre­
sumed that the switch bad been
thrown, and came ahead at a lively

Washington, Jan. 1!.— The second
day’s debate on tho Pacific railway re­
funding bill developed by far tho most
sensational incident of this session of
congress. Jonhnson of California, tho
only member of tho California delega­
tion who favors tho funding bill, in
the course of his remarks took oooasion
to make a remarkable, vituperative
personal attack on Editor Hoarst, o f
the Ban Francisco Examiner. Ho de­
scribed Mr. Hoarst and Mayor Butro as
men who wore terrorizing the Pacific
coast members, and made statements
concerning tiie former which led Coop­
er, of Wisconsin to characterize it later
as the "m ost disgraceful attack in the
legislative annals of the United
States. ”
The members, who had been listen­
ing attentively to Johnson’s remarks,
as he is always one of the most enter­
taining speakers in tiie house, were
thunderstruck at tho lengths to which
lie went. A t the last session Johnson
denounced Hoarst, but on that occasion
lie was called to order by Maguire of
California. Today ho completed his
philippio without interruption. Tho
speech created a profound sensation,
which w as increased by Cooper's denun­
ciation of it as a cowardly attempt to
blacken tho reputation of a man of
“ positive genius.” Cooper also took
oooasion to score the gentleman from
California roundly for his attitude to­
ward the bill. Johnson made no at­
tempt to reply to Cooper.
This incident completely overshad­
owed the interest in the debate on the
funding bill,- and thereafter it pro­
ceeded quietly to the hour when recess
was taken. The general debate closed
today.
Harrison gave notice of a substitute
he should offer to provide for a com­
mission to oonsist iif the secretary of
tiie treasury, secretary of tho interior
aud the attorney-general, to negotiate
the settlement of the debt.

New York, Jan. 11.— A Key WeBt
dispatch to tho World says:
Evidences of awful butcheries at
Guanabacoa accumulate daily. A d­
vices from Havana report that a great
pit filled with corpses and human frag­
ments was discovered in a canefield,
not more than a mile from that place.
A careful investigation revealed at
least twenty whole bodies and many
more legs anil arms, otiior parts of the
dismembered bodies being missing.
Of the bodies remaining entire, four
were those of women, three of young
misses, one of a girl not more than ten
years old, four of boys, and the rest of
men.
Permission to bury the remains was
brutally refused, with a threat that if
this slaughter was complained of many
more would be added to what the Span­
ish officials culled the “ Cuban diet”
pile.
Tiie edict refusing permission to re­
move furniture and other things unless
asked for twenty-four hours previously
is taken advantage of by the Spanish
soldiers to wreck buildings and revile
and insult, if not kill, persons suspect­
ed of Cuban leanings.
Some families in the poorer sections
of the city, who did not know of the
edict, started to move Sunday night.
After they had loaded their furniture
on wagons, the |ioiice anil soldiers fired
on them, killing eight persons, includ­
ing several innocent passers-by.
In
the official re(iort it was stated that the
troopB hail been attacked and several
rebels had been killeil.
A girls’ school near the center of the
town was entered by troops one day
lost week, and the principal, an elder­
ly Cuban-born woman, very prominent,
was compelled to kneel to the officer in
command and beg pardon for using
translations of text-books printed in
the United States.
The girl pupils
were insulted und rudely treated until
the school was broken up in disorder.
A complaint to the commandant^ only
excited laughter that “ such a little
thing” was complained of.
Havana is much agitated by rumors
of victories by Gomez’s troops; of the
successful crossing of the trocha into
Pinar del Rio, and several routs of
Spanish troops.
General Weyler is execrated on every
hand, but, on account ot the severe
censorship and Weyler’s system of
spies, no one dares say a word aloud.
Every one thinks his neighbor a spy,
and little can be learned from anyone.
Spies by the hundred attend the open-
air concerts, and the least dissatisfac­
tion expressed is used as a pretext and
the victim is thrust into Cabanas or
More castle, most likely never to be
seen again by friends or kindred.
Scarcely a night passes but ten to
twenty persons disap|>ear, and every
one knows what Unit means.

Chicago, Jan. 11.— Two armed rob-
rs entered the buffet of the Auditor-
m hotel at 1:30 this morning, while
twelve people were sitting at the table,
covered the cashier, D. Walsh, with
their weapons, seized $100 which he
had just deposited in a tin box, and
then escaped. The men entered the
buffet from the door in the annex.
They were well dressed, and created no
suspicion until they drew their revol­
vers. Cashier Walsh had counted out
the money and deposited it in tiie box
when one of the robbers said: “ Cry
for help and you’ re a dead man.” His
companion seised the cash and both
backed out of the door with drawn
weapons. They ran into Lake-Front
Park and the police could find no trace
of them. The annex is one of the most
prominent hotels in Chicago, aud is
located in tho heart of the oity.

San Francisco, Jan. 11.— Wheat in
this market has become scarce, and is
daily advancing. Shippers would w ill­
ingly pay $1.60 ;>er cental for good No.
1 shipping wheat today, and it is
known among a few that they have
paid as high as $1.62
for something
extra choice within the last forty-eight
hours. Owing to the grow ing scarcity
of wheat in this state, the San Fran­
cisco market possesses a firmness inde­
pendent of the other leading markets.
It is said that there are not more than
250,000 tons of wheat remaining in the
entire state to supply the export de­
mand and homo requirements before
unothcr crop is harvested. There has
been a decrease of 74,716 tons within
one year.

Jacksonville, Fla., Jan. 11.— As the
United States revenue cutter Boutwell
was approaching tho mouth of SL
John's l iver late last evening the look­
out discovered a cat-rigged bout flying
a signal of distress. One of the Bout-
w ell’s boats sent to investigate found a
sailor in the bottom of the yawl. He
was unconscious and liis mouth was on
his naked forearm us though he had
’ ried to drink his own blood.
He proved to be Captain Charles
He-man, of Providence, R. I. On No­
vember 21, accompanied by Charles
Gladding, he set out in the yawl Coeh-
ei'o for a cruise along the coast of Flor­
ida. When they left Charleston on
December 26 they were blown out to
sea. Their provisions and water were
soon exhausted.

New York, Jan. 11.— A Herald dis­
patch from Constantinople says:
The last twenty of tho 388 Armenian
prisoners in Constantinople were liber­
ated yesterday.
There are still in
prison twenty-five prisoners condemned
to death, one of whom is Bishop ArHb-
gari. As to the number of Armetuun
priests in prison oondetnned to death,
only two have np to the present time
been mentioned to tho patriarchate as
worthy of pardon. Sixty-five Armeni­
ans who had sought refuge in Varrm
returned yesterday evening and were
delivered without difficulty to the A r­
menian purtiarchute.
A Kuriner Fouml Dead.
Hcppner, Or., Jan. 11.— M. D. Lo­
gan ,a farmer, living about ten miles
from here, was found dead in a gulch
near tiie residence of Robert Dexter,
yesterday forenoon. He waa last seen
Friday evening, when lie left here for
home. Ho was ttien considerably under
the influence of liquor, and it is
thought that he had a bottle with him,
and became so intoxicated that lie fell
off his horse and died from exposure.
The remains were brought in last
night. Logan leaves a large family in
poor circumstances.
The verdict of
tiie coroner's jury was that Logan died
from intoxication und exjiosure.

Gnrficld, Wash., Jan. 11.— The Inst
sale of wheat was effwted Baturday at
75 cents n bushel, the top price reached
in the Ptilouse country this season. A
pool was formed six weeks ago, repre­
senting ulmut 20,000 bushels, that
were to be held until wheat reached 76
cents. This cleans up nearly all of
the wheat within twenty miles of Gar­
field, and a famine in seed wheat is ex­
pected before spring.
