Times-Democrat's Key West special
says:
If tne Spanish authorities had
taken Scnor Angel Fernandez off the-
Ward line steamer Vigiiancia when
thai vessel was In Havana harbor last
Friday, United States . warshins
would have been Immediately ordered
to Havana to enforce a demand for
reparation, and war betweeu this
country and Spain would have un
doubtedly resulted. For three", hours,
hist Friday, the United States and
Spain were on the brink of war. and
the threatening situation was 'only
over when; the Spanish ignomlnously
backed down and let Hie VMhinpln
proceed with Fermandezon boasd.
Word from a Havana correspondent
gives a dramatic account of tjicepi
sode According to the letter, when
the Vigiiancia put Into Havana', the
Spanish authorities demanded the sur
render ofSenor Angel Fernandez. a
Mexican on board the vessel! The
Spanisli alleged that Fernandez was
not a Mexican, but a subject of Spain.
Captain John Mcintosh, of the Vigi
iancia, refused to surrender Fernan

told Mcintosh that if the Vigiiancia
attempted, to go to sea with Fernan

before Consul-General Lee, who com

and told him to take the Vigiiancia

General Lee was greatly enraged at
the threat to sink the Vigiiancia, and
Is reported to have said to Captain
Mcintesh:
"If the guns of Morro castld sink

Captain Mclntesh returned to the
Vigiiancia, and Consul-General Lee
informed Weyler that the vessel was
going to sea, and If any attempt was

vessel was tired upon.Spaln must take
the consequences. Weyler Im
mediately summoned a cabinet coun

officials on board protested, but Cap

A broker; who docs the 'largest
business in wheat tills side of the
Atlantic, said hi regardto the situa situa
teon: ."There Is a scarcity in spite of
. t
ttie fact that England had a seven-
million crop, that induced speculators
to rnsh in. The Russian crop is poor
and Austria's -crop practically nil,
But what is of great moment to con
sumers having largeladvancc milling
contracts, also rushed in to secure
supplies.
The California wheat sent to India
as yet, only is. a drop In bucket, but
moral effect movement and Impending
famine India lias been very great. Of
course if rain falls large quantities of
California wheat will not be wanted.
But I doubt this and coupled with tlia
viceroys graye telegrams, It now na
turally affords speculators a real ele
ment of uncertainty thoy delight In.
Still this does not account for more
than half the rise. The balance Is
6olld in advance, owing to shortness
of supplies. We shall follow- the
United States closely, however, and
speculators who force the market.
- WooDDOKN,Or.,Oct. 20. One whole
business block burned hero Monday
nlght.and several large buildings near
by were threatened. The lire wns con
fined to the block bounded by Front
and First streets and Garfield and Fill
more on the north aud south. The
block of wooden buildings is totally
wiped out.
The fire started by the-explosion, of
gasoline In the drug store of L. "W.
Guis9, In the center of the block. A
lady came In for a small vial, and in
some way the can exploded and ran on
the Moor, at once catching on fire and
soon the wholo room was In flames.
The fire, soon communicated to the
postodlco adjoining, spreading to F.
M. Cammack'8 hotel, next to the drug
store of A.IJ.Cornwnll.to W. A. Fash's
furniture store, to Loul Provost's
grocery and the hardware storo of
Louis Waldmann. The contents of
the postofllec were nearly all saved.
The hotel is a total loss.
The flro spread slowly, owing to the
absence of wind, and thud every one
was ablo to save most of his goods.
Tho flro commenced at 8:30 o'clock
and raged until 10:30 o'clock p. in.
As the city lias no flro department,
it was hard work to light the flames,
buy great credit lsjiue tho citizens
tuat the fire was confined to one block.

Tho Bryan rally at the Stayton
opera house was a success, last Satur
dayin more ways than ono tho
greatest success, however, was In
forcing the hall door onen. after tho
key had been stolen by unknown par
ties. It Is supposed to prevent tho
people of Stayton from hearing a
Bryan speaker.
The stage was very prettily deco
rated, with autumn leaves, ferns,
flowers, and tho Bryan flag, by tho
ladles of the town, who aro in sympa
thy with tho free silver cause. At
7:30 the meeting wus opened with a
song, by the choir, entitled "Amer
ica;" followed by a select reading, from
Miss Tempest uunnlvln "A Vision
of Lost Alantls."
Miss Pugh,' of Salem, was next
called upon, and responded, by recit
ing u comical recitation entitled "A
Sunday Fishing," which caused all
tho small boys to roar, with merri
ment, so lifelike did Miss Pugh por
tray tills character. Tho speaker was
then introduced, by tho chairman,
norace Mann, as the boy orator of
Silver Creek Hon. C. P. Strain, who
did full justice to tho occasion, and It
is honestly honed, throiurh his nblo

so cleverly, that Mr. Strain will be tho
means of convincing more than one-
half of tho blinded perbous of tho
light and truth, upon this tho ono Im
