STREET - OREGON Nq, 68, Uruguayon Government Officials Offer Men and Arms. New York, March 9. A Herald correspondent In Montevideo tele graphs that the anthorltles of many Important towns In .the republic have openely given their adherence -to the insurgent standi! rd, offering aid in men and arms. This adds greatly to the strength oLthe -revolution and in creases the seriousness, of the situa tion. - ' j The government at Montevideo has dispatched to tho interior a vast quan tity Of arms and is hastening t'.ie mob ilization of the full strength of the national guard. The government is more earnest ut this time In getting the force In the Held, as It is said an engagement has occurred in the in terior in which the federal troops were defeated. Many wounded sol diers have already arrived in Monte video, but the officials will not givo any information. It is stated, how ever, that the battle occurred at San Jose, on the southern coast, and was severe. It is officially announced that an engagement of less magnitude oc curred in Tucuareinbo. The govern ment forces are said to have been de feated there also. The revolutionist are'known to have nearly 9000 men under arms. The government has about 5000 troops already in the field, and these can be reinforced at any moment by 4000 fed eral police, as woll as citizens subject to military duty, and being rapidly mobilized. It is, however, true that thousands of those who would be called upon to serve in the ranks of the national guard ore fleeing to neighboring countries. The minister of war has started, 'for the interior with a large force of ar tillery. The Argentine i naval authorities have despatched three vess'els of war to the coast of Uruguay, having been ordered by the governmemt to pre vent lillibusterlng from Argentina. A Herald special from Panama says: The electioneering contest for the presidency of the republic for the next term from 1898 to 1904, is now fairly on. General Rafael Reyes.who is now Columbian minister to Europe, was 1 in September last nominated through congress as national candi date for the presidency. The adher ents of President Caro have named him as candidate of the nationals in opposition to Reyes, Should Caro ac cept, it would surely cause a split in the national party with ominous re sults. Your correspondent -addressed a telegram to Dr. Pedro Mollno, minis ter of war, asking him to state if manifestoes Issued by Caro's adher ents were in obedience to Caro's wishes. He replied diplomatically that Caro had not yet Epoken in re gard to his candidacy, nor had he been questioned in regard to the matter. SiThe popular opinion is that Caro Is planning a coup d tat, with the ob ject of keeping himself in power for a term of six years more, as Nunez did before him, This would cause a rupture Caro repuld have the power in bis hands, the national force being under his command, but Reyes, with the exception of some independent liberals, has a strong popular follow ing. A significant fact is that President Uaro is changing all the1 military chiefs of the principal cities who sup port Reyes substituting for them his own adherent!!. The objection of the independent liberals to Reyes is that he has been offered and has accepted the support of the Velistas, who are ultta-conservatlves. OA8TORIA.

Dolph Is Dying, The Distinguished Ex-Senator At Death's Door. Portland, March 9. Ex-Unltcd States Senator J. N. Dolph had his left leg amputed aliovo the knee, and It Is thought he will not recover from the shock. His condition lust night was very critical. The amputation was rendered nec essary from the fact that blood poison ing, from a wound In the leg, had set in. For several years Mr. Dolph has been a sufferer from kidney compli cations, but his condition was not considered serious uutll last Saturday, when a sore on his' leg began to glte him trouble. It was discovered that blood poisoning had set in and, at a consultation of physicians, it was de cided that the only hope fdr his recov ery was through an amputation. Mr. Dolph stood the operation bravely, but his age renders It Improbable that he will recover from the effects. For many years Mr. Dolph has been a martyr to diabetes, suffering more severly at some times than ut others. A decade ago, during a period wlieu the disease seemed to haye markjed him for its own and physicians told him he must die, he resolutely refused to yield, and lived since to laugh at his mortal enemy. For more than ' 15 years, he has tasted no food that con tained sugar or starch. One of the la ter manifestations of diabetes is sore ness in tho feet and, for the past two or three years, tho ex-senator has been afflicted from this source. Two 'or three times during the present win. ter ho has been confined to his homo for a short time, ane it was not thought serious when, about 10 days ago, he was ugaln kept indoors by the annoying soreness of his feet. This soreness became greaoly aggravated on one too by tho cutting of an Ingrow ing nail last Friday. Tho spot fes tered, and gangrene supervened soon after. He grew rapidly .worse, In spite ot all that could be done. The amputation of his leg as a last resort to save the life of the distinguished man, was not finally determined upen until Mr. Dolph himself had been consulted. Ho willingly ogreed to submit to the operation, his mind was as clear and his will as firm as ever. He wanted to endure the ordeal with out anaesthetics. The sufferer rallied surprisingly af ter the operation, and within an hour his pulse acd temperature was much improved. In fact, the physicians concluded that the chances of his re covery were Improved about 25 per cent that he has about one- chance In four or five for his life. TI10 rumor that Mr. Doiph was dy lug became widespread over tho cltv during the afternoon, and deep con cern was everywhere expressed. In quiries unci words of sympathy poured In from all sides, evidencing the es teem in which Mr. Dolph is univers ally regarded, Portland, 3 p m. Hen. J. N. Dolph is lying very low, but the attending Ehyslclan pronounced his condition efng as hopeful us could be expected under the clrcumstuiiccs. latest, Portland 4 p, has Just died. m.
