(Copytighted, 1595, by Press Publishing Company.) LONDON, July 6.—(New York World Ca- blegram—Special Telegram.)—It is well within 3 bounds to rcay that the profound lack of faith In their chances at the general election, which, within my knowledge, was’ felt by most of the liberal leaders at the time of thelr defeat in Parllament, and, indeed, for monthe before, has given place today to a really confident bellef that they will return with a majority, perhaps a considerable one. Lord Salisbury was never a tactful politician, but be hes crowded o many political blunders into these last ten days that en unprejudiced outside observer can only recall one chdjfter in history to equal them—the supporters by an undue surrender to Cham- erlain’s demands for place, he has antago- nized the English love for fair play by his wholly gratuitous insult to Campbell Banner- aan and disgusted Bnglish regard for truth- fulness by a very equivocal excuse for the ungentlemanly act, OPPOSED TO LIQUOR REFORMS.

The amenities of political campaigns here could give points even to onr Bowery. The acceptance of a baronetey by Naylor Leyland, apparently as a reward for aban- doning the conservative party, will probably defeat him tn Southport, where he is opposing George Curzon. Thelr two American wives, however, will take active part in the contest. PRAISE FOR AMERICAN ACTORS. Augustin Daly's revival of “Two Gentle- men of Verona" this week, has brought him astonishing tributes from the London press. The Times calls Ada Rehan the “most finished Shakesperian actress of our time,” and Clement Scott, the best known of English critics, actually finds courage to say that American actors speak better English than English actors. Discussing Daly’s company, he says in the Telegraph “The gift to sensitive English ears was the rare gift of elocution, There was scarcely an outlaw of the lowest grade who could not speak verse better than the majority of English actors, for the good reason that they have all been taught to speak, whereas every young English actor thinks that it will all come to him by inspiration. It de- lighted the ear, tortured with the false qualities of English dramatic art.” Lofe Fuller, that other American artist of another quality, has been repeating in Bir- mingham and Edinburg for the past fort- night her successes in London and Paris, The London critics will have nothing of M. B. Curtis in “Samuel of Posen,” and are unanimous in denouncing that play. Since the great fire in Paris last week the municipality is busily at work reform- ing their fire department and will send a committee to New York to study our system. 1t appears there are eleven steamers in all Paris. BALLARD SMITH. bery's Kecent Strictures. LONDON, July 6.—The marquls of Salis- bury In the House of Lords today replied to the speech which Lord Rosebery recently delivered before the Eighty club, in which he attacked the House of Lords. The premier traversed Lord Rosebery's statement that the House of Lords had legisiative preponderance. On the contrary, he asserted, the House of Lords had no share in the voting by which governments were displaced, nor in the pro- vision of fitness for the public service. Continuing, the marquis of Salisbury asked what the lords had done to induce Lord Rose- bery to submit a proposal which had been in Parliament for twenty years; the House of Lords merely refected the evicted tenants bill, which he asser ed was impra-ticable In the shape presented. To such bills the lords op- posed continued resistance. (Cheers) Their real crime was the rejection of home rule, which was the question upon Which the electorate was now asked to decide. If home rule had been passed, the marquis also said, it would have been irrevocable and the coun- try has been saved from this situation by the so-called “‘manacles’—the lords, In conclusion the marquis of Salisbury ex- pressed the opinion that the House of Lords deserved the thanks of the country for clear- ing the field of sterile and angry conflicts and for bringing about the consideration of meas- ures to ameliorate the social troubles of the people. Lord Rosebery replied that the legislative preponderance of the House of Lords excited opposition, inasmuch as 500 peers were a fixed barrler for the purpose of retarding liberal measures. The House of Common: he added, changed; but the House of Lor: never changed. Whatever the result of the elections, so far as the House of Lords was concerned, it remained the same. In con- clusion the ex-premier said that if the con- servative measures were such as to raise the soctal life of the people without injustice to other classes, he promised them the support of the liberals. The house then adjourned. t | r SPANISH TRIOPS GO No Foundatlon for the Statement that General Campos 18 Disheartened. HAVANA, July 6.—General Anderius, the commander of the troops here, reviewed four companies of the battalion of America today and the troops left for the province of Santa Clara.

Every night of the past week has been crowded with balls, din- ners and parties of various descriptions and those who cannot find a alght during the next few days are being compelled to aban- don the idea of carrying dut their social pro- gram and will, therefore, postpone their pro- Jected entertainments or give them up alto- gether, This year's invasion of London by Ameri- cans is the strongest ever known. They are to be seen at every turn, occupying the best apartments in all the popular hotels and visiting all places of interest. The leading restaurants are packed with them and they halt fill the theaters nightly. Finally the Americans flock in crowds to the big music halls and enjoy themselves generally in every way possible. They are good customers everywhere, free with their money and con- tent only with the best of everythiog. There- fore, it need hardly be added he London hotel keepers, store keepers and ‘public en- tertalners are not grumbling at the so-called American “‘invasion.” 1t proof was needed of the presence here of a multitude of Americans, 1t was furnishel by the crowds of patriotic citizens of the United States who attended the several In- dependerce day celebrations in London on Thursday last, and, etrange to say, the screeching of the eagle upon these occasions seemed to give the lion a certain degree of healthy satisfaction. The Dally News, for instance, commenting yesterday on the ban- quet of the American soclety at the Holborn restaurant, said: “The American Iniepen- dence day was celcbrated in Lonion more publicly than on previous occasions. This is as it should be. The day brings no bitter- ness of memory to the present generation of Englishmen. But for that day and fts les- sons, our empire might by now be a thing of the past. It Is mever so fittingly celebrated as when Englishmen and Americans meet in honor of it at the same ceremony, or at the samo social board.” Then again, during the banquet a cordial message was received by the Americans from the past and present members of Emanuel college, Cambridge, who were dining in another part of the building, which caused Hon. Wayne MacVeagh, the United States ambassador to Italy, who presided in the absence of Hon. Thomas F. Bayard, the United States ambassador to the court of St. James, to remark that blood was thicker than water. Not to be behindhand in cour- tesy, the Americans sent the Emanuel men a reply, proposing as a worthy sentiment of the evening the memory of John Harvard, a son of Emanuel college, and the father of liberal learning in the new world. GREAT CROWDS OF AMBERICANS. As a further proof cf the presence hee of vast throngs of Americans, it may be aided that at the Sayoy hotel one night this weelk, half a dozen famous dinners were in progres:.

He was pursued by the troops and had a fight, in which Aramburo was killed and three of his band were wounded. A small band of insurgenis has appeared in the district of Santa Domingo, province of Santa Clara, and its members have burned the city hall at Andaluias, after killing the mayor of that place and four citizens who took part in its defense. e t , | THIKD READING OF THE SUPPLY BILL At the Closs of fhe Pebate Parllament Was Prorogued Until July 24. .| LONDON, July 6.—An appropriation bill providing money for the public cervice until the meeting of the next Parllament passed its third reading in the House of Commons today. Mr. Edmund Knox, Parneliite, repre- senting West Cavan, commencel to discuss the action of the House of Lorls in rejecting the municipal franchise Ireland bill, but, on the motion of the Rt. Hon. A. J. Balfour, first lord of the treasury, the &praker ru'ed Mr. Knox out of order. The latter returned to the subject in various ways, but e:ch time the speaker ruled him out of order. Mr. Knox then asked if the government would introduce a bill to redress the anomalies of the municipal franchise in Ireland. Mr. Balfour admitted the existencs of an- omalies in the municipal franchise, but, he alded, the government coull not announce any legislation until after the electiors. Mr. Cavin B, Clarke, member of the Ca'th- uess, radical, and Mr. Heury Labo:che.e then ro‘ested against the alleged tendency of the government to Increase expenditures in pursu- ance of & high imperial policy. The appro- priation bill, as already cabled, then passel its third reading and Parlizment was forma’ly prorogued until July 24. s t o e ¥ o d a u Chinese Loin Fiually Concluded. BERLIN, July 6.—Advices received here from St. Petersburg say that the arrange- ments to issue the £16,000,000 loan to China under Russian guarantee have been concluded and that all the papers will be sigued today. a & d s 1 The registers of Lowes and Gillig's Amer- ican exchanges show a larger number of names entered than for years past. Mr. and Mrs, De Young arrived from Paris a few days ago and they are recelving much at- tention in society. They have been the guests of Mrs. John W. Mackay and other prominent people. The sixty cases of art objects which Mr. De Young purchased in France for the California exposition memorial museum have arrived in London and will be shipped to the United States on Wednes- day next by the steamship Cuthera. The collection 1s one of really marvelous variety and value. It Includes rare tapestries, Sevres vases, plates, etc., wonderful ivorles of the empire period, Louis XV. and XVI. furniture and clocks and other admirable selections from the best collection it is possible to draw upon in Europe. There was considerable comment among the New Yorkers who attended the reception given on the Fourth of July by Mrs. Bayard, wife of the United States ambassador, upon the fact'that Mr. William Waldorf Astor, who can be carried through as it should be. The canal In my opinion, will be universally of greater importance than the Suez canal and largely revolutionize the shipping routes ot the world. For the United States the canal will not only have the effect of develop- ing the trade of the Pacific slope and south- ern states, but will more especially open up thie magnificent lands of the Mississippl at present lost to the commerce of the world." There is much gossip among agricultural classes in regard to the future policy of the government. A great many of the landed gentry profess to know that the marquis of Salisbury will favor an import duty on for- elgn products other than wheat and a number of Irish torles are using this argument in an attempt to secure votes. Mr. Jerome K. Jerome does not seem in- clined to apologize to Mr. Richard Croker in regard to a statement made in Jerome's paper about Simms. He published Mr. Croker's letter on the Subject which was the same in wording as the one written to Mr. Henry Labouchere and published in Truth, but he adds: “It ‘does not tally with my information, and it would be to the advantage of the public that the affair should be carefully inquired into.” The rumor that Lord Rosebery is to marry one of the prince of Wales' daughters is re- vived this week and it is sald he may re- linquish politics entirely. It is understood that the queen would not offer any opposition to the match. Lord Rosebery continues to be her great personal favarite as her be- stowal upon him of the late duke of Hamil- ton's Order of the Thistle indicates. Lord Rosebery alrcady possesses the Order of the Garter, and it is extremely rare for any one not of royal blood to hold both orders, the only other instances on recond being the cases of the earl of Aberdeen and the duke of Argyle. DISCUSSING AMERICAN ATHLETIC Commenting on the possibility of an in- ternational university athletic contest Lady Colin Campbell Realm says: *The American universites have nothing like the authority in athletic matters that ours have. Things might easily go wrong. The baser kind of #port hangs about the American tracks from falsifying a record to poisoning a competitor.” Reviewing the prospects of the Cornell crew at the coming regatta at Henley, Mr. W. B. Woodgate, the expert English oare- man, who has carefully watclied the progress made by all the crews which will compete in the race for the grand challenge cup, predicts that the Leander and New college crews will be first and second. Mr. Wood- gate also expresses the opinicn that the Cor- nell crew will not be able to hold out after passing Fawley court against the longer reach and swing of the English crews. The Pall Mall Gazette, commenting on the same subject, thinks that the Cornell men have been doing the reverse of improvement during the past week. It has been dis- covered, the Pall Mall Gazette adds, that staleness is a thfng to be guarded against as much as insufficient preparation. Mr. D. H. McLean, an dld oarsman of Bton and Oxford experience, who has been present at the Henley regattas of twenty years past, thinks that the Cornell men are undoubtedly a very fine crew and the best the United States could produce, as they have carried everything béforé them in America. He adds: “They are simply an unknown quantity in' tbe competition for the grand challenge cup, and if they win we must reconsider our most cherished ideas of rowing.” Mr. McLean also expresses the opinion that the Canadians, with the crew of the Argonaut Rowing club of Toronto, consist- ing of C. H. Munz, F. H. Thompson, E, A. Thompson and R. A. Munz, have a beautiful crew with which to compete for the stew- ards challenge cup for fours. He says they aro a speedy lot of men: WEEK AT THE BIG THEATERS. The cooler weather of the past week has had a favorable effect upon the attendance at the theaters, Daly’s came in for a fair share of patronage, Including several members of the royal family. The pro- duction of “Two Gentlemen of Verona” has excited much diverse criticism. There has been praise for the manner In which it is mounted and objection :to the manner in which Mr. Daly interpoiated music in Shakespeare's text. Ada Reban and James Lewis have been highly commended by the critics. M. B. Curtls gave a trial matince of Samuel o' Posen” on Thursday last at the Galety theater. The result s that the newspapers have united in a chorus of con- demnation and express wonder at the fact that “Samuel o' Posen” was successful in the United States, Mrs, Patrick Campbell returned to the cast of ““Fedora” yesterday and Beerbohm Tree is engaged in securing a cast for “Trilb; It transpired during the week that Du Maurier took as his model for Little Billee the son of a cabinet maker at Hampstead, who has since adopted the stage as a pro- fession, Mr. Tree has engaged him to play that character in the approaching pro- duction of “Trilby.” The princess of Wales has always shown a great fondness for adventure, like riding in Buffalo Bill's stage coach and shooting at different shooting contests, ete., and this week she, in company with her daughters, the Princess Victoria and Princess Maud, the duke and duchess of York, the crown prince of Denmark and other members of the royal family, made the first trip in the great wheel after the style of the famous Ferris wheel of Chicago, only larger, which has just been finished at the India exhibition, and did it in spite of the fact that it has been generaliy claimed that the wheel is un- safe. VESUVIUS AND EINA IN ERUPTION Several Towns in Their Immediate Vicioity was among those present, has aged greatly since the death of his wife, Bret Harte created much amusement at the reception by displaying great anxiety that the English butler should announce hi correctly. The butler announced arte,” whereupon the novelist called “Bret Harte out at the top of his voice three times, and set everybody laughing. There is much dissatisfaction at the care- less manner In which the mails are dis- patched to the United States. The North German Lloyd company advertised a steamer to sail last Sunday and notified the postoffice authorities to that effect. But without giv- ing notice to any cne or changing the ad- vertisement, the company withdrew the steamer entirely, and In consequence the mails waited at Southampton for several days. FAVORS THE NICARAGUAN CANAL. Archibald Ross Colquhoun, the well known explorer and first governor of Masonaland, has just returned from u s:ven months' tour to Nlcaragua, where he thoroughly inspected the Nicaraguan canal route and Central American canal. He says: “From what I have seen of Nicaragua and in a lengthened visit to the United States, especlally the southern states, I am more than ever convinced of the importance to the United States of this project and feel sure that it 1s only under the auspices of the United States government that the project in Daager.

LONDON, July 6.—An official telegram re- celved here from Bombay says that owing to the clashing of a Hindoo marriage procession with some natives taking part in a Moham- medan fete at Portoandara, on the Katty- war peninsuia, the former attacked the Mo- hammedans and drove them from their mosques. The troops eventually repressed the rioting after three of the rioters were killed and 184, chiely Mohammedans, were wounded. 3 Filibastering Tug Is Lost.

He Is kept fully ine formed regarding all important matters during his stay along the coast of Sweden. Throughout his vacation reports will be sent to him twice a day by speclal courlers in regard to all government affairs requir- ing his attention. Prince Hohenlohe has gone to Strasburg {in order to visit the exposition there, and he will afterward proceed to his Austrian villa at Ataluzee. With reference to the health of Prince Bismarck, the Hamburgische Correspondent announces that he took a long walk alone yesterday, and on returning conversed with a aumber of visitors whom he found gath- ered outside the house. The program of the big army maneuvers beginning September 1, has now been de- cided upon. They will take place in the valley of the Oder. The southern army will be composed of the Guards and the Third army corps. It will have the task of forcing the passage of the river Randow. This is only practicable, owing to the swamps, between Locknitz and Penkum. The north army, consisting of two army corps, will oppose the passage of the river. The 1st will witness a repulse of the enemy, who, on the next day, repulse their opponents. On the 3d the army will fight a battle near Nuerkirchens. PRIZES FOR THE OFFICERS. During the whole time the troops are en- camped In the open this summer, long dis- tance and reconnoitering rides will be un- dertaken by the officers of the army by special orders of the emperor, who has of- fered a number of silver tankards as prizes. The rides will.be governed by war condi- tions. The big veterans' jublice festival takes place in August at the Tempelhof field. All the veterans of war, even the nurses and ladies of the Red Cross society, will take part in the meeting. The bimetallic leaders in Germany hope the Bundesrath will authorize an international monetary conference within a fortnight. Germany’s right to levy toll on all vessels passing through the Kaiser Wilhelm canal forms the subject of diplomatic corre- spondence upon the part of Great Britain, Russia, Denmark, Swelen and Norway.

By decree of the Bundesrath all European cattle will henceforth be quarantined, the duration of their quarantine depending upon the existence or absence of contagious dis- eases in the exporting countries, GERMAN EXPORTS INCREASE. The German exports to America for the quarter ending July 1 show an increase, the average for all consular districts being 65 per cent. In the Berlin district the increase is nearly 80 per cent; in the Hamburg, 43 per cent, and in the Gera district, 160 per cent.

The Fourth of July was not officially cele- brated in Berlin, or in any other towns in Germany, but the stars and stripes were dis- played on the United States embassy and con sulate and from a number of buildings, and over the Uncle Sam club, where there was an informal dinner and patriotic speeches. SCHEMING TO RETUEN TO FPOWER Ex-President Blunco Has H Work In Venesuela. (Copyrighted, 1895, by Press Publishing Company.) CARACAS, Venezuela, July 6.—(New York World Cablegram—Special Telegram.)—The activity of the political agents of ex-Presi- dent Blanco makes it evident that he Is in the fleld to succeed President Crespo. His en- ergy and persistence warrant the inference that he will be a strong candidate. Although he is not popular, he has plenty of money to spend, and that will command support. His rule was tyrannical and his assumption of power bordered on the ludicrous. At one time he had himself elected a senator from s0 many different states that he constituted half of the senate, while at the same time he was governor of several states and presi- dent of the republic. He erected statues to himself in all the leading towns, His egotism bordered on insanity. His absorbing ambi- tion s to rule all the northern part of South America. An opponent says his plan will be to induce ambitious people to join their for- tunes with him in a wild scheme of consoli- dating Venezuel, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru into a grand imperial confederation with hhmself at the head, his ultimate design be- ing probably to declare himself emperor, guaranteeing parliamentary government to the country. Home rule will be a part of his program. It is not unlikely his manfa has taken this turn, as his ambition is not limited to Vene- zuela. Although he has amassed $25,000,000 here, he is still unsatisfied. There Is no Jimit to his ambition. He has married his daughter into ducal families in France. One daughter married the young Duke de Morny, the son of the half brother of Napoleon. But Blanco cannot corrupt the leaders of the young Venezuelan party, which stands for Independence, efection of the English from the soll of the country, and reforms in the national Institutions. Familles descended from noble families of Spain are giving their support to the liberal cause, especially the younger members. What Blanco's agents are doing In Colombia and Ecuador is only a Agents at matter of rumor. It Is his policy to buy oft his opponents, now that no one cares for his threats. His rule drove hundreds of the leading politicians into exile, some dying in poverty In the United States, Mexico and France. Since he left here for France he has cherished the idea of returning, and since the death of President Nunex of Colom- bia schemes of imperlal magnitude have been floating in his brain. He Is an able, cour- ageous and daring man with Insatiable ambi- tion, Electrlelty Not Popu'ar There. (Copyrighted, 1895, by Press Publishing Company.) COLON, July 6.—(New York World Cable- gram—Special Telegram.)—BEvery attempt at lighting towns on Colombia’s Atlantic coast by electricity has been frustrated. long ago the entire electric light plant here burned and Colon was left to primitive and inadequate means of illumination, thus ren- dering evening promenades dangerous for strangers. The Cartagena plant exploded this week, killing several persons and des- troylng nelghboring houses.

NEVINS, The bodies of Rev. G. W. Duncan, his wife and daughter, George Nevins, Norma Nevins | and the Wright girl were recovered, but the others have not been found. A slashing rain, preceded by a stunning wind, set in at 9 o'clock last night. When the wind ceased the rain increased intensely, until at 10 o'clock the water seemed to come down in a continu= ous stream, At 10:156 four feet of water was on the street. In fifteen minutes more buildings could no longer stand the strain and began to careen and dissolve in the waters. Vivid i flashes of lightning plerced the downpour, i which came like the falls of Niagara. Houses were smashed and in the water were hun- dreds of men, women and children. It was like a shipwreck In the ocean. Cries of ter- ror and shouts for help from struggling people clinging to pieces of timber made the scene one that baflled intelligent effort to save the helpless, The strong ecurrent rushing down the ravine or valley carried many to higher land and places of safety. NOT A HOUSE REMAINED. When the torrent had to a degree subsided the men who had seen to their own families turned their attention to others, and by 3 o'clock in the morning the worst was over. Those whe had escaped the sweep of the devastation stood shivering, without clothing or without opportunity to dry themselves, When the day dawned there was nothing of the homes in the town; there was no shel- ter, no food, mo clothing. As soon as the destroyed telegraphic communication was re- % stored Mayor B. F. Evans telegraphed to B this city for ald. Tonight the inhabitants of Winona are scattered among farm houses or have gone to neighboring towns. In all thirty buildings were Among them were: A. pany's building, loss $2,000; Mrs. A. G.

The following individuals lost houses: Tom MecCord, Bill Howell, George Jordan, Wilson Randolph, John Norrls, George Hay- den, four houses; James Hensley, Jack Gil= bert, Tom Gallbraith, Lloyd Wright, Crandall Roberts, George Farris, Joseph Miller, Rev. G. W. Duncan, D. W. Van and Dan Holmes, The total loss is not less than $80,000. Rev. G. W. Duncan, who lost his life, was pastor of the Winona circuit, and was but recently ordained. He was formerly an en- gineer on the Iron Mountain railroad. The bodies of Miss Mamie Duncan and Mrs. Craw- ford were found at 4 o'clock thls mornin The others were recovered long after day- break. Some had floated three miles down. 3 Pike creek toward the northeast and in the direction of Current river. At places the water was twelve feet deep in Winona. It is now known that Birch Tree, eight miles west of Winona, had its greatest storm at the same hour last night. No lives were lost there, however, but Cordez & Fisher, lumber dealers, lost $2,000 by the destruction of their builldings. Other buildings were slightly damaged there, PROSPEROUS LUMBER CAMP. Winona, In point of population and busie ness, was the most Important town in Shan- non county. Surrounding It are the finest of the great pine trees of Shannon county. To the north eight miles the Current river flows northeast and then bends to the south- east, touching the Current River branch of the Memphis raflroad at Chicopee, a dozen miles east of Winona. Northeast and south- west of the town are hills. The railroad follows a valley east and west and a deep ravine goes out northwest toward Uie river. Along the sides of this ravine or valley were clustered houses, occupled by the fame ilies of the men who had been employed in the Ozark Lumber company's sawmill, When the clouds burst on the hills the water rushed down this ravine, carrying all before it. The railway was on a slight grade, but the track was torn up and residence houses and business buildings were swept along with it into the river. Church & Kis- sel had the largest general store, and the Missouri Land company had oue other bulld- ing near the raliroad. Both sufferéd from the rush of water. Winona, at the last town census, had 608 people. Elght miles west of Winona was eltuated DBirch Tree, next In size in the county, with inhabitants. It had similar Jumber literests and was a thrive ing place. On the morning of July 4 the town was visited by a downpour that was almost equal to a cloudburst. Great prepara- tions Lad been made for a celebration, and a mammoth dinner was epread under the trees, The storm swept everything away and many had narrow escapes from drown- ing. Again late Iu the evening came another flood, a visltation that was most disastrous in ity resul S i n FIVE PEMSONS KILLED BY A CYCLONE Kan, Visited by @ Death Deuliug Twister, Waxter Sprid KANSAS CITY, July 6.—A special from BGaxter Springs, Kan, says: A cyclone whith struck Buxter Spriogs last night killed five people outright and two others were lgey
