All buildings were shaken, and many windows were shattered. According to the ofllclals of tho Madrid observatory, tho explosion oc curred 20 miles above the earth. The sun was shinning clearly at tho time of the explosion, and tho only thing visible in tho sky was a white cloud, bordered with red, which was travel ing rapidly across the heavens, leav ing behind it a train of fine white dust. When tho explosion occurred the populace believed it was an earth quake, or a. sign of divine wrath. Many Injuries resulted from the panic which broke out amongst the people, and from tho frantic attempts to es cape from the factories and schools. Seventeen were Injured in one factory by the collapse of a staircase when the' Inmates rushed upon It to escape from the building. At the palace it was at first feared a bomb had been exploded.

The Press publishes an appeal to tho American peoplo, signed by President Botan cpurt, of tho provisional government of Cuba, which craves recognition for tho Insurgents. Says tho appeal: All wo wish now is to bo looked upon by the govern ment or tho United States ns men and soldiers battling for their birthright. Wo do not wish to nppoar In the eyes of tho world as bandits." After rehearsing In detail tho his tory of tho United States' srugglo.thc nppcal continues. "Wo nsk tho American people to grantus, through tholr-congrcss, thoso rights of belligerency to which, ac cording to tho laws of wnr nnd of na tions, wo aro entitled. Onr nrmles have marched wlthor they would, throughout tho entire island, nnd for weeks have threatened tho stronghold of Spain's power In Cuba. "Must wo capture Havana anddrlvo Spain's hliellngs across tho sea before wo aro even given the rights of men to fight for that priceless gift which God destined should be unlvcrsallydl- vldcd between Ills children? Must wo gain our Indopcndenco before we nro accorded tho sanction of tho world to labor for it? "Is Spain entitled to consideration at the hands of a civilized and highly progressive nation? Does her misrule In Cuba for a century commend her to tho hearts and minds of men? Aro her hirelings here to lift up nnd educate tho Cuban to make his beloved island prosperous? "Cuba, the bleeding, appeals to her American sister. She does It In the name of God, of Justice, of civilization and nf America." t Disbarment Proceedings of J. W. VVhal 1 ley vs. Tho3. H. Tongue. I At l) a. m. tho disbarment proceed ings of Whalloy vs. Tonguo was heard on oral argument licforc the court of Oregon. J. W. Whalley addressed the court for an hour In a very polished nnd modem to manner. He Insisted that ho hud no wish whatever to have n lino imposed upon Thos. II. Tongue, but simply naked that they decide whether tho rules of practice bo not violated, and that a precedent bo es tablished to prevent abuses. At 10:30 Mr. Tonguo replied In nn elaborate nrgumoat to tho court, nnd received tho congratulations of his friends present, lie contcuded Mint it was simply an Informal substitution of tho name of Smith for Wilkes In 1110 prouaio proceedings, witu no thought or Intention or posslblo view of affecting the appraisement of nn estate. A CAUSE CELK11HE. This suit Is a celebrated caso In Oregon Judicial and political circles, as both Tonguo and Whalley nre well knpwu public men. Governor Lord,ExGovernor Moody, Speaker C. B. Moore9, Treasurer Metchati,Supt. Irwin, Judge Tanner, of Portland; W. I. Vnwtcr and A. S. Hammond, of Medford; W. M. Colvlg, of Jackson county, E. P. Morcom, of Wood burn; and a number of members of tho Salem bar wore present to hear the battle of words. TONQUE OltOWS PEUSONAL. In tho close of his speech Mr. Tonguo grow personal nnd denounced Whalley as conducting malicious pro ceedings to lulluenuo a political cam paign, and to gratify his personal inallco and revengo. He said Whalley announced his in tention to disbar him In tho saloons of Hlllsboro. After n personal exam ination tho committee of tho bur asso ciation had dismissed tho mutter, and ho sought to go behind their verdict. Ho had loft It to a commlttco who hud fairly considered It nnd oxonor atcd him. Whalley wanted to wrench property from a widow that properly bolonged to hor. Ho had given tho charges to tho newspapers when In thd hands of tho bar association, all to make pnlltlcnl capital. Ho had filled the nowspapors with his charges against him nnd his family, and If his children ovor dreamed of a horrlblo monster who sought to crush their fnthor and 'crush tho llfo out of them, It would bo tho form of this man, who In his cups hud sought to f istcn this blackening charge against tho defendant. Ho charged, In con clusion, that tho suit was brought by malice, and Hint was tho Inspiring motivo in tho accusation. Mr. Tonguo closed in nu eloquent appeal to tho court to place tho stamp of disapproval upon this class of per secutions. It was purely malicious and personal. Ho asked for a speedy decision. JUDGE WHALLEY UEPLIKS. Tho plaintiff was much wrought up when ho nroso to reply, nnd could not easily keep his dignity. Ho said manly courage had never been called In question nnd "Old ago no'cr cools tho Douorlns duct In this case was contrary to the ethics of tho profession. If tho court refused to censure such conduct, It would drive honorablo men out of tho profession and place n premium on shystcrlsm. This was no campaign document, but simply a legal proceed ing to protect nnd safeguard tho prac tice of tho profession. If tho court would not prcscrvij tho nubile rcmU against such practices. Tho court aJJourncd to 1 p. m., nnd tho argu ment was over, A PETTY CASE. In the opinion of many who have become familiar with tho case, It la a small affair at best. It is tho custom in probate cases for tho lawyer In charge to draw up all pctltIons,bonds, etc., filling In all nniuci of sureties and appraisers that are agreed upon nnd tho Judge examines nnd approves them. If an nnnralscr Is sick- nr tnr any reason cannot 6crvo, another Is substituted. This was dono by Mr. Tbngue and afterwards ratified by tho court. The prosecution by Wnalloy Is generally regarded as a petty mall clous warfare for political purposes to kill oil Tom Tonguo. It Is not likely tlio court will notice It. "THE POPULAR LOAN." Tho Inst bond Issuo has been falsely called a popular loan. Mr. J. Plcrpont Morgan put In a bid for the entire 9100,000,000 nt 110.0877. Tho bid Includes J. P. Morgan & Co., Nntlonal City Bank, Harvey Flsk & Sons nnd Deutsche Bank of Berlin. It Is 8 said Mr. Morgan will got at least half tho Issue. It Is certain that nono of tho bonds will go for less thnn 110.075, and they may all bo disposed of at 111. , Tho Stewart syndicate bid was for SO,000,000 at 110.075. It has been n syndicate loan from the start. No prlvato citizen could get a dollar of It. A popular loan wus never Intended. If bonds wero offered for sale at the postotllcos tho people would take tholr money out of tho banks and buy them. Tho banks do not wnnt thnt. Tho banks run tho government Just uow. 7 Emasculated by Foot Pads. Los Angeles, Cal., Feb. 11. F. Stamblcr, an eastern man who has beon In this country only a short time, was held -up by footpads last night at tho approach to tho bridge on San Fernando street. Upon his statement that ho had no money the f 00 pads dragged hi in un der the bridge and emasculated him. Ho Is at the county hospital now In a precarious condition. The New Ambassador. Washington, Feb. ll.Tho presi dent hits nominated Edwin F. Uhl, of Michigan, assistant secretary of state, to be ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of the United States to Germany. Tho senate Im mediately acted favorably upon the nomination, blood. no trembled and grow white, and re ferred to his old uge, but said If ho wero not In this august presence ho would yield to tho impulso or tho moment and so far forgot himself as to smito tho Insultcr In his face. Ho then rovlowcd the caso In tho probate court, saying ho hud been upheld In every point by tho courts, so far us his client was concerned. No charged a conspiracy between Tonguo and Judge Hare, County Judge Cornelius nnd tho county clerk to defraud his client. Ho was not,upon trial. His feelings wero not a legitimate part of this trlul before tho court. Ho was hore advocating the rights of tho bar In this matter ami not to persecute Mr. Tonguo. Ho confessed to taking u drink at saloons and was not guilty of thut meaneit of all vices, avar'ce. If Mr. Tonguo had not changed a public record then there was no case, If this court appntved alterations of court records at will of attorneys, all litigation was subverted, and at the mercy of rascality. Tills was not nn alteration of tho record by tho Judge "nunc pro tunc." Mr. Tongue's con- A SOUND ARGUMENT. The Dalles Times Meuntaineer: A common school education Isn ne cessity to good nnd Intclllgentcltlzon ship, therefore tho opportunity for ob taining a knowledgo of tho branches taught In tho public schools should be furnished by tho state. That is, a freo school should bo maintained within reach of every child of school ago In Oregon. A freo school should bo maintained In ovcry district for at least six jnonths overy year, thus giv ing the masses an opportunity to gain n knowledgo of tho rudimentary branches, but when this Is dono tho stuto should go no further In educa tional matters. Such schools are with in the reach or nil. Money expended for tholr support is for tho benefit of those from whom it is oxacted, while Unappropriated for such institutions as tho state university Is for tho bene fit of so small a porccntnge that It is Insignificant when compared to the whole people. "PATRIOTS OP AMERICA." The above Is Mr. Harvey's new organization to promote bimetallism.
