REVOLUTIONARY FORCES UTTERLY ROUTED A Skirmish Fight Attended with Great Loss of Lite—S8anchez Cornered —The Revolation Prace tically Ended. [Copuright 189 by James Gordon Bennett.l "PravciaaLea, Honduras, Nov. 14.—[New York Herald Cable -Special to T Bee.] The rebellion headed by General Longinos Sanchez is practically The revolu tionary forces have been utterly routed by the army which President Bogran has been rapidly gathering from all portions of the tountry at his headquarte and he is in full possession of the capital city with the exception of one barrack, where the remnant of the defeated army is closely imprisoned. If any of the rebel lead- ers escape death it will be through the clem- ency of the president. The president with his army started and marched upon the capital from Tawara yes- terday, driving in all the scouts rnd the advance guards and closing in the pickets of -Sanchez’ forces, times the skirmishing . was very bloody. Ambushes were frequent and effectiv ving to the brush-covered country auding such movements, Sharpshooters also for Bogran, picking off the in large numbers. The skirmishing was kept up until after midnight and at daybreak today Bogran, with perhaps two thousand soldiers, advanced upon the capi- tal. Sanchez had all the approaches guarded withartillery, which did effective work. Three pieces commanded the main highway to Tamara with a_ largd reserve of iufantry in the rear, This position was charged s times by Bogran's forces bofore it was ried, Sanchez’ troops were at last, hard fighting, routed, and took refuge in the capital. The fight was continued m the strects with varying s for several hours. Street after street was cleared by Bogran's force and the barracks, which last Friday fell into the hands of Sanchez, were recaptured one by one. “Phejloss 80 far hius been very heavy on both sides, Bogran is now practical uation us he has Sanchez and his army sur- rounded in one of the barracks, which s now belng bombarded by solid shot and shell. Sanchez only chance of escape is to make a sortie. 1f he does not ho will become a prisoner to the president, which means not alone his death, but that of all his teaders and many soldiers, Bogran has already taken mavy prisoners, The city is badly wrecked by shells and the mhab- ftants, men, women and children are thor- oughly terrorized, Barrillas remained en- tirely neutral during the trouble. The telegraph lines are in the hands of Bogran, but he has accorded their use to the wierald for the purpose of giving the infor- sintion of his victory to the world. Beforo tomorrow night the capitol will surely be in the hands of the president and the brief re- bellion of Genaral Sanchez will be only a matter of history, except perhaps the execu- tions, which will most surely follow the un- successful attempt to overturn the govern- ment. WAS BARTTELOT INSANE?Y Still Another Chapter of the Much Talked About Scandal. Loxpoy, Nov. 14.—Mrs. Jameson writes to the papers endorsing a letter written by ber husband to$Sir. Willlam McK nnon after Assad Farrau's story had been told, entering & vigorous denial of its truth, In the letter Jameson says he was deceived, Hesawa curious native dance which Tippoo Tib told him was usually followed by a cannibal feast, Ho was skeptical, whereupon another Arab told him (Jameson) to give him a bit of cloth and hewould see. Jaweson thought thisa trick to obtain the gift, but gave the Arabh handkerchief. A girl was dragged out and murdered before he knew what was going on. He made no skotches at the time but made them that evening in his camp. Jameson goes on to tell of the disreputable character of Assad and encloses a retraction from that chief 1 which he says the story about buying the girl was misunderstood. Mrs. Jameson adds her husband was about to take further steps to clear himself when stricked down by the fatal fever. Bonney's ofticiul report is also printed. In the course of it ho severely criticizes the management of Jameson aud Barttlot, who he says were hand in glove. They en- deavored to hamper him ‘limun‘,\'y in various ways. He says the march from Yambuia to Uniria was delayed constantly by bluster swagger and bad management. ‘Speaking of serious losses of arms and stores he says during the twenty-four days Barttelot's ab- nce when he (Bonney) ws in charge they never lost a man or load and traveled quicker. By Buttelot's bad management loads were scattered all over tho district and many of them looted. In Bonney’s letter to Barttelot's father telling of the major bringing chains from Stanley Falls for the slaves, he says: “You may not like to hear this, but the facts are in possession of the Congo state authori- ties and you had best be prepared to meet any statément.” In tho conclusion of his let- ter to Stanley. Bonney says that reviewing sl events, he believes Barttelot was insane. el The O'Shea Divorce Case.

Solicitor General Clark, for Oaptain O'Shea, opposed 8 postponement. He sad that Captun 0'Shew’s case had been ready since May 13 and the plaintiff was anxious to proceed. The delay was duo solely to Mrs, O'Shea. The obtaining of numerous successive postpone- ments in order to discover alleged documents had_been an obvious attempt to delay the trial.

CHANGES. Gould Wants Sidney Dillon to Become President of the Roads ST, PAUL INTERESTED IN THE DEAL. A Plan Maturing for a Great Rail- road Association Which Shall Swallow Up All Ex- fsting Ones. v Yonrg, Nov. 14.—|Special Telegram to Tue Bee.]—~A prominent railway manager who is thoroughly familiar with the progress that has been made toward bringing the western roads into closer relations with one another, said yesterday that the change in the control of the Union Pacific railroad, which will soon be made apparent, means a great deal to the Chicago, Milwaukee & St Paul railw Messrs. Drexel, Morgan & Co. have for some time past been influential in the management of that company. Mr. Morgan has assisted Mr. Gould in regaining control of the Union Pacific for the reason, among others, that he wished to secure for the St. Paul company facilities west of Omaha similar to those enjoyed by the Chicago & Northwestern through its alliance with the Union Pacific. 1t is also clear that other railroads running to Omaha, but having no lines of their own west of the Missouri river, are to be treated by the Union Pacific hereafter in a manner that will prevent any further criticismof the north- western lines, It is understood that the new president of y will be Sidney Dillon. Mr. Gould wishés him to have the place as a vindicationof his previous management of the company’s affaivs, His duties will be of an advisory nature and younger men will be retained to supervise the duties of operation. A local paper says: It is not quite true, as reported yesterday, that a circular calling a meeting ulation for the signatures of the stockholders, and no meeting has as y been arranged for at Mr, Morgan’s house or anywhere else, This, at least, was the state- ment made by an eminent banker, whose house would certainly be consulted in such a matter. He added that he was eamnestly in favor of such a meeting and of suchan agree- ment as was contemplated. Mr. Gould tolay confirmed the statement made by the banker just quoted that no cir- cular calling a meeting had as yet been issued. “Such a meeting, however,”’ contin- ued Mr. Gould, ‘s being urged. I suppose that the holders of interests in the western and southwestern roads have requested Pierrepont Morgan to use his influence, whic h is very great, in bringing about a better state’ of aff; The recommendations which the chairman of the existing associa- tion, Aldace Walker, made in the report he published about a month ago, have been much discussed and very favorably consid- ered, and I think that if such a meeting as is contemplated should be held it would be for tne purpose of further considering and_taking action on the measures he advises, I of course am heartily in favor of anything that will re- store confidence and 1mprove the situation. Rates are ridiculously low. The roads are unable to do all the business they have. Our own road, as I have just been " informed by telegraph, is 2,000 cars short, of the number we need toddy. The old agreement as adopted here was all right and would have been beneficial, but when it was taken out to Chicago it was so amended as to be practically useless.” George C. Magoun, of Kidder, P l\bud{ & Co., said to & reporter that a cireular calling a meeting and setting forth its object was under hourly consideration, It was being formulated and might be issued at any mo- ment, but thatat the time at which ho was speaking it was not ready to be issued. He added that there was a great need for such a meeting and for some action looking to the improvement of rates, Gould's New Association. Cnicaco, Nov. 14.—[Special Telegram to TueB Er.)—The Railway Press bureau says: The word has come from eastern financial mei to western railroad officials to so shape matters as to be in readiness for the forma- tion of an association which shall swallow up existing railroad associations. Few, if any, western railroad men know the details of the proposed plan, except that it1s tobe formu- lated in New York under the guiding hand of Jay Gould and J. Pierrepont Morgan, '‘Chair- man Midgley of the Western Froight associ- ation will probably do the wording of the agreement. He wrote the original agreement, of the Interstate Commerce Railway associa- tion and it met the approbation of all eastern financiers until emasculated at the Chicago meetings, Everything in the west is now being hinged on the New York meetings. To test the feel- ing a meeting of the exccutive officers of all western railroads is to be called early in De- cember to take action on a universal advance in rates. This move was started by Chair- man Midgley and he will call the meeting. The one objection now is that the farme) have captured the Kansas, Ne- braska, lowa and Minnesota ' legisla- tures, 'and all railvodd men fear more hostile legistation. That they arein carnest, however, was conclusively shown today. Committees had been appointed to select suc- cessors to Chairman Finley, formerly of the “Trans-Missouri association, and Chairman Faithorn of the Western Freight. The com- mittee today recommended that the associa- tions continue under the acting chairman until December 81, or untl it was learned whethera new association would be formed to include all the existing organizations, The Western Freight Association, Curcaco, Nov. 14.—|Special Telegram to Tue Bee.]—The Western Kreight associa- tion wrangled all day on the divisions de- manded by the Union Pacific. These divisions have been accepted by the Northwestesn, Wabash and Kansas City roads, The Rock Island today demanded a decision from Act- ing Chairman Osgood as to whether it could, under the agreement, make the same terms with the Union Pacificas the Northwestern had. The decision will be rendered tomor- row morning, The wterstate commerce commission has granted an extension in the settlement of the hograte to November 25, and it was conse- quently agreed to postpone the matter until a week from Tuesday, in the hope that the Alton would then agree to an advance in the packing-house product rate instead of equal- 12ing rates by reducing that o live hogs. The Burlington Won't Yield. Cu1cAGo, Nov. 14.—A vote of the members of the Western Freight association today showed every road except the Burlington ready to back down and accept’ the terms of the Union Pacific. The question as to whether action could be taken without the unanimous cousent of all thw lines was re- ferred to the chairman, The Burlington peo- plo say that even if the Union Pacific suc- ceeds in foreing new divisions on its Omaha connections, it (the Burlington) will con- tinue to exchange trafiic on the old basis. Will Adopt Uniform Classification, Seriarieip, I, Nov. 14.—The board of railroad and warchouse commissioners today decided to adopt the uniform classification of rates, prepared by the stauding committees puuniform classification, appointed by the convention of traffio officers at its meeting at Chicago in December, 1888, as they consider it much more satisfactory to all “concerned than the different and varying freight classi- fication now in use. The change takes effect \ Junuary 1, 1891, BEHEADED BY THE WHEELS. iy Horrible Death of & Man While Pass- ing Between Fréight Cars, Ocpey, Utah, Nov. 14.—[Special Telegram to Tur Ber,)—Henry Harsh, employed in the coal yards of the Unjon Pacific company here, met with a horeible death this morning. He was passing between two freight cars on his way to work and stepped on the link between the bumpers when the train suddenly backed up, oaught his foot and crushed it and also held him fast, He feli forward with his neck across the track, was caught by the mof 1‘«’33' wheels and his head was entirely sev from his body. The train moved backward fifty feet, dragging the headless body by the foot still impris- oned. When found by the train men the head lay by the track fifty feot from the body. The decensed was about forty-two years old and leaves a wife and six children, He will be buried by the Grand Army, to which be belonged. i AN WALL STREET, Stocks Show a Loss to a Greater or Liess Extent, New York, Nov. 14.—The stock market to- day was much less active than for a weck past the general list bein comparatively dull with small fluctuations . and practically de- void of feature, There was, however, no lack of animation in a half dozen or more of the leading stocks and their fluctaations were as large as usual, the prevailing tendency being downward. ‘The cause for the renewal of uneasiness was found this morning in the dispatches from abroad which reflected a les confident tone and indicated that the squeeze for money on the other side was by no means over. Here the money telegraphed from San Francisco aggregating $1,50),000, gave a much casier tone to the money market and while the funds on call were run up to 13 per cent at one time, loans were made as low as 4 and finally one at 5, Domestic news was of rather an encouraging character. Nortn American for the first time n many days eeased to be tho most prominent stock on the list and for a time it was comparatively neglected while transactions in it reached the ordinary figuge.

The London Financial Sitaation, New Youk, Nov. 14.—[Special Telegram to |~-The Evening Post, in its financial say The early prices in London this morning, and the selling for Londen account imme- diately after the opening of the market here, made ivapparent that the financial atmos- phere in London was not cléhr by any means. The mere fact that the Fank of England had found it ecessary to borrow £3,000,000 of the Bank of Franco for thros months at 8 per cent, merely to have tho gold required for cireulation in Scotland at this season of the var and for other purposes of rescrves for London joint stock banks, showed that the situation had been more Strained than had been fully realized before. 1t was well known this morning that there are still rumors in ¢ culation _there in regard to other financiul houses, though In this case they may not have any more foundatipn than the,stories cabled hiere yesterday about Martin ‘& Co., which are today pronouticed entirely untrue.

Senor Guanes sald: “International exchange of products of the manufactures of the United States and Spain is surely one of a necessary law and are based upon instincts and the universal neéds of the present day, and the greater the difference between their customs and the productions of their labor, 50 much more necessary 1s it for the nations to come closer together und wcrease their exchanges, To maintalnthese interests and to contribute to thelr development shall be the object of my most splicitous care,” President Harrison, ‘Teplying sald: “It is most gratifying that, in thus entering upon your mission, you express, in the name of your sovereign and of the' Spanish nation a warm desive for continued harmony of rela- tions and the intimicy of intercoursé between the United States and Spain. Inspired by like sentiments, I @ount upon your promised aid in developing larger relations and closer ties of amity and_commerce which both na- tions desire for their reciprocal advantage.” —— The O'Shea Divorce Case.

FOURTEENTI STRE suixaroy, D, C., Nov. 14, The friends of Mrs. Grant expect her to visit Washington during the winter for the purpose of conferring concerning the effort that is being made to secure the removal of General Grant's remains to Arlington, It is no longer a secret that Mrs. Grant desires the change to be made, and she has expressed her regret that the house committee on library did not force the issue before the ad- journment of the last session. The senate bad taken action and the house might have done so had the subject been forced upon its attention. Mr. O'Neil of Pennsylvania, who had the matter in charge, is a gentleman of more dignity than push, and he was trampled out of sight by less courteous members, It is Mrs. Grant's wish to see the work of con- structing a monument over her husband’s grave well advanced if not completed while she lives, und for that reason she favors con- gressional action as the only guarantee for the proper memorial to the life and sgrvice of her husband. The New York delegation n congress is determined to resist ev effort that is made to secure the noval of the remaius, but they will not succeed. It is very plain, however, that unless something is done av the approaching session of congress the body will be allowed to remain in New York, % Bureav Tie Omana Bee, % A MODEL GARRISON. Senator Manderson hopes to get sufticient appropriations to make Fort Omaha a model garrison, and comes to Washington this early for the purpose of taking o of matters of direct interest to his constituents. He was at the treasury department today in the in- terest of the Nebraska distillery case, as it was desived to open that institution for busi ness, He says they represent to him that they have 1,500 head of cattle tied up for feeding and prevented from opening by the pretended claim of bwnership made by individuals connected with the whisky trust, and that it appears that the owners'of the distillery sold out to the whisky trust, which closed down the establishment” and alosed. The supreme courtof N, aside this sale o the trust a public policy und declared it void. It also dissolved the old corporation and forfeited its charter. Then a new company was organized, and now that it is about to open individuals connected with the whisky trust ‘claim ownership by roason of a transfer of the stock of the old compar The commissioner of internal revenue will be_asked to decide the question of ownership before he can permit the open- ing. 8} HOW IT WAS DONE. Senator Manderson, who has just returned from Nebraska, says that he is somewhat dis- figured by the late political disaster, but de- clares ha'is in the ring for future battles in the interest of the republican party. He said today that the result in Nobraska was a de- cided surprise to him; that he realized this was an off year and expected the loss of the lower house of congress, but he did ot look for such an universal defeat. ‘[ expected considerable danger from the ronibition and farmers' alliance movements n Nebraska, said he, *“but the full extent of the defection wus nov reahzed by anyoneuntil after the returns were all recewed. The selfishoess of every man prompts him to de- sire that what he produces shall be high and that what he consumes shall be, in price, low. The McKinley bill came with a rising market, in which prices were going up from natural causes, If you will examine the returns you will find no propor- tionate increase of the democratic vote The side shows of an off year were the great causes of defeat., Then there were | ous involved. In some states po- sm was to be rebuked, and this was a good year to administrate it In other states, notably in Wisconsin and Illinois, the school question and particularly compulsory education was the issue. In others, prohibi- tion, railroad ion, transportation and like questions were what induced third party movements, In Nebraskaa peculiar condi- tion was disclosed. Although I realized its membership was great, 1 had vo idea that the farmers’ alliance would poll one-third of the entire vote of about 215,000, the greatest num- ber ever cast, The democrats have no gain of votes, but have been able to profit by our divided strength. - The same causes produced like results in the congressional districts.
