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.

lob separately, and he possibility of
calling a sympathetic strike of the 21
other trades attached to the Trades
Building was remote:

builders this afternoon adopted reso
lutions setting aside the agreement
between tha bricklayers' union and
association on the subject of employ

mittee proceeded to other large build

Joseph N. 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

TI10 rumor that Mr. Doiph was dy

during the afternoon, and deep con
