The entire Cuban population turned out to visit the Childs this afternoon. DEFEATED BY SPANIARDS, Five Hundred Cubans Killed | and Wounded in a Des- perate Fight. An Attempt to Capture General Campos Repulsed by His Forces. HAVANA, Cuea, July 21.—Further de- ments have been made public of the recent battles between insurgents and Gov- ernment troops between Manzanillo and Bayamo. Captain-General Martinez Campos left Manzanillo for Bayamo with 1000 troops. On June 30 his force was ambushed by 7000 insurgents near Valenzuela. The Spanish forces were under the command of Brigadier-General Santocildes, who was the military commander of the Manzanillo district. The Bpanish troops fought bravely, again and again repelling the fierce charges of the rebels. It was thought that the principal object of the attack was to secure General Campos. The troops formed a hoilow square about him, thoroughly determined that he should not be taken unless it was over their dead bodies. The battle lasted seven hours. During one of the charges General Santocildes was killed. General Campos then took com- mand of the troops and finaily succeeded in defeating the rebels. The insurgents left 500 dead and wounded on the field. Among the dead were the leaders Rabi and Moncada. The Government loss was seventy-two killed, including two officers, and a number wounded. Re-Enforcements for Campos. MADRID, Sparw, July 21.—A dispatch from Havana states that Genera! Navarro with 2000 men has arrived at Bayamo and relieved Captain-General Campos, who was in a critical position in that city. Colonel Aldane, with a battalion, is expected to ar- rive at Bayamo very shortly. A decisive battle is imminent. i et S 4 COALITION CABINET] King Oscar Summenrs M. Form One. STOCKHOLM, Swepex, July 21.—King Oscar, who is spending a holiday at Mar- strand, summoned M. Thorne; a Norwegian ex-Minister and Conservative, and asked him to undertake the formation of a coal- ition Cabinet. M. Thorne consented to make the attempt. i S G Pan-Americans in the Pulpits. TORONTO, Oxr., July 21.—Distinguished delegates to the Pan-American Congress occupied numerous city pulpits to-day. There was no business session, but there was a very largely attended meeting at Massey Music Hall, the largest hall in the city, this afternoon, at which the question of missions was discussed. The feature of Thorne to | saloo | Excitement Over a Bold Coup in an the meeting, which caused something of a sensation, was the severe strictures passed the Very Rev. Dean Harris of St. atharines, Ont., on the Protestant mis- onaries working in the province of Que- bec. Rev. Father Ryan og Toronto, also a Roman Catholie, occupied the chair.

CONSTANTINOPLE, TurkEy, July 21.— The Porte has appointed Shakir Pasha to supervise the reforms in Armenia. Thisis regarded as a concession to the powers, which are still asking for a more definite statement as to what reforms the Porte proposes to carry out. LIQUDR N THE MELONS New York Negroes Manage to Evade the Sunday Law. Beer Carried Away From the Sa- loons In Innocent Looking “Growlers.” NEW YORK , July 21.—Commis- ner Roosevelt's ukase caused another unday to-day. A man looking for a 1k had to be “solid”” with some saloon- | ecper or else went thirsty. Hotel guests were the only exceptions—and a guest meant anybody who ordered a meal. Every ice captain hustied to the extent of his lity to keep saloons closed. In uptown cafes rooms were arranged where old customers were served drinks undisturbed, and at hotel cafes sandwiches were ordered by “‘regulars’” as a matter of necessity. Big restaurants and drugstores with soda fountains were undisturbed, the police confining their attentions to the P West Side salcon-keepers did a “‘growler” trade, which they regarded as safe. It was in the old “tenderloin” district. in the midst of a colored vopulation. Here nearly every family has at this season a fine watermelon in the icebox Saturday night. The luscious pails were scooped out, the rinds preserved whole and used to conceal “‘growle: Into and out of one saloon on Twenty-seventh street, near Sev- enth avenue, half a hundred watermelons were carried by colored persons during the day and not one was molested by the po- licemen. Considerable surreptitious beer and liquor selling was done. e KIDNAPED A BRIDE. IUinois ¥Village. TURNER, IrL., July 21.—This village is excited over the kidnaping of Mrs. Ray Boynton from her father-in-law’s resi- | dence last night. Ray Boynton and Miss Mabel Thomp- son were married on Friday against the wishes of Mrs. Thompson. Last night Mrs. Thompson, with her younger daughter and Deputy Sheriff Gorham, went to where-| the newly married daughter was stopping and called her out of doors. They then seized her, and, placing her in a carriage, drove her to Wayne, where she is nowa captive in her mother’s house. The girl did not want to go, but was forced to. The bride 1s aged 18 and the groom 24. Ax Ll TO VISIT THE RESERVATION. Nebraska Congressmen Will Attempt to Settle the Omaha Land Trouble. OMAHA, Nesr., July 21.—Senators Thurston and Allen and the five Nebraska Congressmen will go to the Omaha reser- vation Wednesday to attend the conncil of “he Omaha tribe._ The object of the trip is to get from the Indians their version of the troubles that have occurred on the reservation between the white settlers and the Indian agent. With the information thus gained the Congressional delegation will offer its services to all the parties in- terested, including the Interior Depart- ment, in any action looking to a speedy settlementof the difficulty. No ejectments have been made by Agent Beck since he was served with the writ of injunction is- sued by the Judge of the State Court. el g JUMPED FROM THE WINDOWS. Several People Fatally Injured in a Leap From Burning Buildings. NEW YORK, N. Y., July 21.—Three houses in Guttenburg, N. J., were destroyed by fire this morning, and a hotel was dam- aged. The destroyed property was owned by Mrs. Caroline Asmus. The inmates of the burned buildings were hemmed in by the flames and one or two deaths, it is thought, will result from injuries received when they jumped from the windows.

FEARSFORTHEIR SAFETY Not Heard From Since They Started for the Wyoming Bad Lands. IN THE BANNOCK COUNTRY. The Reds May Have Taken Revenge for the Recent Defeat by Settlers. CHICAGO, Irv., July 21.—A special from Denver, Colo., says: It is feared that a party of Princeton students have fallen into the hands of the Bannock Indians. Nearly two weeks ago the students forming the geological expe- dition went through Union Pass, and since telegrams have been received for them without affording any means of delivery. They were on their way to National Park, and due on their return trip about the end of July. They are in a dangerous country, and if they are alive the fact remains that the Government has recently stirred to great activity, as orders were received vesterday at Fort Washakie for the send- ing of troops. There are only forty-three men at the post, and the expedition can- not be very formidable, but it is the best that the army can do. Reports from Jacksons Hole are that there are fully 300 Indians assembled there and of the number there are fifty Sho- shones from the Wyoming reservation. Another report from Fort Washakie says that the two Indian police and judges who were sent to Jacksons Hole nearly two weeks ago have returned. They were forcibly detained by the Bannocks and had to escape by strategy. KICHARDS Wyoming’s Governor Discredits the Ru- mored Capture. CHEYENNE, Wvo., July 21.—Anxious inquiries were received here this evening from Eastern friends of the nineteenth annual geological survey from Princeton College, now making a trip in Eastern Wyoming. Governor Richards, to whom the mes- sages of inquiry were sent, is sure that no harm has befallen the students. The fight between the settlers and the Bannock In- dians took place on July 4 in the Jackson Hole region, near the western Wyoming line, directly south of the Yellowstone National Park. On July 5 the Princeton students were in Lander, over 100 miles from the trouble, and there they remained for several days. The country over which they were to travel iscomparatively well settled, and is within easy reach of the Fort Washakie Post, where there are two companies of United States infantry and a number of Indian police. Tt is believed here that there is no truth in the reported massacre of the students, or the War Department would have been so informed and the executive of the State uotified that troops had been ordered out. A definite report is expected to-morrow from Adjutant-General Stitzer, who is in the Jackson Hole region making an inves- tigation of the troubles. 0T ALARMED. ANXIETY AT PRINCETON. No Word Has Been Received From the Missing Party. PRINCETON, N. J., July 21.—The re- port that a Princeton geological expedition has been captured by the Bannock Indians in Wyoming cannot be confirmed to-day, as none of the geological faculty are in town, and no word has reached here from members of the party for sixty days. The expedition, which was headed by Professor Hatcher, left here June 20 for the Bad Lands, in search of geological speci- mens. Those who accompanied Professor Hatcher were: L. F. Pease, '95, of German- town, Pa.; R. F. Little Jr.,, '96, of New York City ; Walter Moses, '95, of Trenton, N ; A. L. P. Dennis, 96, of New York City; Talbot Pierce, '96, of Washington, D. C.; Boyer Davis, 96, of Philadelphia; A. A. Brownlee, Seminary of Indiana, Pa.; John H. Brooks, '95, of Scranton, Pa.; John Schedt, '96, of Titusville, Pa.; Albert G. Milbank, '96, of New York City; E. Rotheman, '95, of New York City, and J. Garrett, '95, of Baltimore, Md. NEED OF A RELIGION, Dr. Barrows Says Buddhism Is Prefer- able to No Faith. CHAUTAUQUA, N.Y., July 21.—This hasbeen an ideal Sabbath, both in weather and in “goings-o_n.” Not a shaye could be had upon the grounds and not even *soft drinks” could be bought. The morning’s sermon was preached by Dr. John Barrows of Chicago, and his sub- ject was ““The World-wide Effect of Chris- tianity on the Nature of Things.” The sermon, or address, as it might more appro- priately be called, wasscholarly. Dr, Bar- rows compared Christianity with the other religions of the world, and told of the many reforms_that have come about be- cause of it. He said that the countries where Buddhism and Mobammedanism revailed were really better off relig- 1ously speaking, than they would be if there were no religion there. et THE McBEE-TERRELL FEUD. Another Victim of the Clash Between Mississippi Factions. JACKSON, Miss., July 21.—Passengers on the train from Larned, the scene of the McBee-Terrell battle of Monday, wherein two men were killed and five others wounded, report that Cliff Burnett, a mem- ber of the McBee faction, was found dead in the road, his body being full of buck- shot fired from ambush. The trouble is not over and other murders are expected. FETB Sl PREACHED OF TREASON, Military Mass Celcbrated at Camp Zincoln. : SPRINGFIELD, ILL., July 21.—At Camp. Lincoln to-day military mass was cele- brated in the presence of the largest as- semblage that. has.ever gathered at the camp to attend religious services. The Seventh Regiment band furnished the music_and the combined choirs of the Catholic churches of the city sang. Rev. Father Nugent of Des Moines, Iowa, preached the sermon. In the course of his remarks he spoke of treason. ‘The men who donned the gray and, after trampling the flag in the dust, marched up to the cannon’s mouth to de- fend the wrong they had committed were noble,” he said, “but they were traitors none the less.” The minister closed with a patriotic appeal to the soldiers to sup- port the Government of the United States gnd to defend the good nameof their tate. THE ERICSS DISASTER. Death of David Cody, the Second Fictim of the Exploston. NEW LONDON, Coxx., July 21.—David Cody, the second victim of the torpedo- boat Ericsson disaster, died at the Marine Hospital to-day. His wife, father and mother were with him. The body of Stransky was forwarded to Dubuque last night. The condition of Austin Willilams of New York changed for the worse this evening and he may die. William Merwin, whose condition has been critical for a few days, remains the same. He has a bare chance for recovery. Joseph Hamilton of New York is the on one whose chances of recovery are nousid{ ered good. S STRUCK BY A TRAIN. Four Deaths the Result of a Railroad Accident. TROY, N. Y., July 21.—A pleasure party of five men, while driving across the rail. road track between Williamstown, Mass., and Pewna, Vt., this afternoon, was struck by a train on the Fitchburg road. Three o; the men were instantly killed, one died shortly afterward and the remaining oc- cupant_of the carriage, William Prindle, escaped injury by jumping. The party had waited for a freight train to pass, and did not see the pasgenwer train coming from the opposite direction. The names of the men who were killed have not been ascertained, but they are reported to have been Frenchmenresiding in North Adams, Ma: SUGAR. BOUNTY: CLATMS Senator Blackburn in Wash- ington to Expedite Their Payment. Comptroller Bowler Disposed to Question the Constitutionality of the Law. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 21.—Seec- retary J. C. 8. Blackburn, a national figure in the silver fight, returned to Washington from Kentucky Saturday and registered at Page’s, but has thus far maintained the strictest secrecy as to the object of his visit. 1t is believed by some that the chief reason for his presence here is to expedite, if possible, the payment of the sugar bounty now held back by Comptroller Bowler. Senator Blackbura was an advocate of the measure in the Senate, and it is sup- posed he is in Washington now at_fhe ré< quest of State Senator Mar!in, who repre- sented the planters’ interests wben the measure was pushed through Congress. Comptroller Bowler is disposed fo question the constitutionality of the law, and asks for a special legal hearing, all of which is annoying to the sugar people. ' Therefore it is not unreasonable to suppose that Sen- tor Blackburn’s presence here at this time has some special bearing on the sugar bounty payment. It is probable also that magters con- nected with the Senatorial canvass bring Senator Blackburn to Washington. There are rumors to the effect that some of Sen- ator Blackburn’s friends in the depart- ments are in danger of dismissal because of their loyalty to the Kentucky advocate of free silver, and it is said that the Senator intends to learn the truth of these rumors and protect his friends. One story has it that I. W. Hazen, Chief of the Secret Serv- ice division of the Treasury, who has won the disapprobation of the administration and Secretary Carlisle because of his close friendship for Senator Blackburn, is marked for removal. A high Treasury official most emphatically denied this story when it was brought to his attention. sy e STONE SNUWED UNDER. Silver Champlons Carry the Primaries in Mississippi. JACKSON, Miss., July 21.—The primary in this county yesterday was the hottest election since 1880, when the famous “Committee of One Hundred” issued its red circular, ornamented with a grinning skull and crossbones. and swore its deter- mination to wrest the reins of the govern- ment of the municipality of Jackson from the KRepublicans, which they did, the negroes declining to face inchester riflges just for the empty honor of voting. The primary was to select candidates for county ofiices, to express choice for a United States Senator to succeed Senator George and to select delegates to the State convention. Hinds County had seven can- didates for State offices, and the contest was over these. This having been the home of ex-Congressman HooEer for forty years, it is probable that he carried the county for United States Senator, with General Lowry probably second. The country precincts have not been heard from, and nothing definite is known as to Senator or members of the Legslature. Enough.has been learned though to indi- cate that Governor Stone, the ‘‘sound money” candidate, has been snowed un- der. News from other counties is to the effect that McLaurin’s record is unbroken. He has been indorsed for Governor in every county that has spoken so far, and it be- gins to look as though he would have no opposition whatever in the convention. SEGE R SAVED BY WOOLEN MATTRESSES. William Watson Survives an Attempt to Blow Him Up. SILVER CITY, N. Mkx,, July 21.—An attempt was made to kill William E. Wat- son at Pinos Allos with giant powder at 3 o’clock yesterday morning. The frame house in which Watson was sleeping was blown to pieces, but Watson was not seri- ously injured. He was lying on two heavy wool mattresses, which deadened the force of the explosion. E. A. Robbins was arrested to-day for the crime, having been tracked from the house. Miners say ten or twelve sticks of giant powder were used. —_—— Drowned in a Reservoir. SOUTH McALESTER, I.T., July 21.— J. Fred Temple, a civii engineer in the em- loy of the Choctaw, Oklahoma and Gulf Enx road, was accidentally drowned while bathing in the reservoir at this place this morning. He leaves a widow and two children. 2 ———— Death of M. Pessard. PARIS, Frasce, July 21.—Hector Louis Francois Pessard, a well-known publicist, | scribed died to-day. PRICE FIVE CENTS A COLLISION AT SEA. Scores of Lives Lost by the Sinking of a Steamer. STRUCK IN THE DARK. The Maria P Went Down Be- fore Her Lifeboats Could Be Lowered. FEW PASSENGERS WERE SAVED, Carelessnessof the Ortigia’s Officers Sald to Have Caused the Disaster. LA SPEZZIA, Itavy, July 21.—A ter- rible accident, resulting in the loss of 148 lives, occurred near the mouth of the Gulf of Spezzia to-day. At 1:30 o’clock this morning the steamers Ortigia and Maria P ran into each other, and the latter vetsel was so badly damaged that she sank in a very short time. The Maria P had on board, in addition to her crew, 178 passengers bound from Naples for the River Platte, by far the larger part of whom were emigrants. The night was pitch dark when the collision occured, and the scene on board the sink- ing steamer was heart-rending, Most of the passengers were asleep in the bunks at the time, and were awakened by the crash- ing of the steamer’s plates, deck beams and deck planks. They were panic-stricken, and rushed pell-mell on deck where they ran hither and thither, calling uvon the saints to save them. From the reports of the disaster received here it is impossible to determine whether any attempt was made by the Maria P to clear away and launch her small boats to attémpt to rescue the passengers. Judg- ing from the accounts given by the excited survivors it is surmised that the steamer went down too quickly to allow of this being done, though one boat got away. The blaekness of the night added to the terror of those on board, and it is under- stood that some of the passengers, crazed by fear, jumped overboard. The force of the collision was terrific. The Ortigia struck the Maria P squarely on the starboard side, and her stem pene- trated the ill-fated steamer for a distance of eighteen feet. When she backed out, a great'volume of water poured through the orifice, and the vessel began almost imme- diately to settle. No mention.1s made of the Ortigia lower- | ing boatsTo atterapt a rescue of the im- periled passengers of the Maria P. Whether the former vessel was damaged or not is not known. The survivors are in such a mental condition that it is. impossi- ble as yet to get any connected story, but from the statements of the crew it appears that the disaster was caused by the Or- tigia. The crew of the Maria P numbered sev- enteen. Of this number fourteen were saved in the boat that gotclear of the ship. This boat also saved the thirty passengers who escaped drowning. The Ortigia on her previous voyage col- lided in this same spot with a French steamer, and this fact adds strength to the belief that she was responsible for this last disaster. Admiral Morin, Minister of Marine, has ordered an inquiry to be made into the af- fair to place the responsibility. The Maria P was a schooner-rigged, iron screw steamer of 722 gross and 457 net tons. She was built in Sunderland in 1886, and was 175 feet long, 27 feet 1 inch beam, and 19 feet 8 inches deep of hold. She nad five compartments. Her engines were of the compound type. She was owned by Marini Brichette, and her sailing port was Genoa. FIRE IN A TUNNEL. Disastrous Conflagration Started by a Spark From an Engine. CINCINNATI, Onro, July 21.—Fire broke out last evening at 5 o’clock in tun- nel 3, on the Short Line of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, near Turners sta- tion, about sixty-two miles from Coving- ton, and raged up to an early hour this morning. All traffic between Lagrange and Cincinnati was entirely suspended. The tire was caused by a spark from the engine of a freight-train that passed through at that time. Strenuous efforts were made by the sectionmen, but findin; that the flames continued to make hewdg way word was sent to the Louisville fire departmect, which sent an éngine and hose. It was impossible to bring the hose to bear with effect and the engine was withdrawn. The Covington fire depart- ment also sent an engine this morning, which was more_effective, and finally suc- ceeded in partially checking the flames. The tunnel is 450 feet long, and the flames extend more than half of the way through. Gangs of men were set at work to-day to construct a temporary line of rails across the hill under which the tun- nel runs. At latest accounts to-night the company had hopes of extinguishing the fire completely before morning. S POISONED HER HUSBAND. A Texas Woman Confessed to a Horrible Crime. FORT WORTH, Tex., July 21.—Friday night detectivés arrested Frank Ware and Mrs. Black on the charge of murdering Martin J. Black, the woman’s husband, a Fort Worth and Denver Railway engineer, who died at his home on the South Side on the 1st of July. Yesterday Mrs. Black broke down and confessed thecrime to Chief of Police Maddox. . 3 Black carried a life insurance policy of $7000, and Mrs. Black and Ware decided to put the husband out of the way, which they did by putting poison in his food. While on his run Black was accustomed to take his luncheon with him, but on his last rum, it is alleged, Ware prepared the lunch and 'i:‘“ oison in the food. While at Wichita s, Black was seized with ‘violent cramps and brought back to Fort ‘Worth, During the sickness of Black the suspicions of the attending nurses were aroused by some act, and finally a druggist told a_friend of Black that Ware had pur- chased belladonna from him. The bodtg was exhumed and it was shown that bo croton oil and belladonna had been used. Mrs. Black elaims that Ware adminis- tered the poison during the absence of the attending physician, and in conjunction with the medicine the physician pre- . Ware is 25 years old and has been employed as a bill collector. Mrs, Black says that an atumEt was to have been made to kill her husband abouta year ago, but that she weakened before it was accom- plished. She is an_attractive-looking bru- nette. She says Ware promised to marry her when Black was put out of the way. Ware and Mrs. Black will have a pre- liminary trial to-morrow morning. A Rl s VISITED BY A HOT WAVE. Torrid Weather Causes Much Suffering in : Illwnois. BLOOMINGTON, I, July 21.—This has been an oppressively warm day. It rained during the night and the earth has fairly steamed all day, under the bright sunshine, with the thermometer register- ing 100. There has never been more suffer- ing from the heat in this city than there has been to-day. PEORIA, Iin., July 21.—A hot wave passed over this city this afternoon, the mercury reaching 98 in the shade. Follow- ing right after the heavy rains, it is hard to_tell whether it will resultin good or bad. MOWEAQUA, Inw, July 21. The ther- mometer reached 103 here to-day. Rain is much needed. The prospect for an im- mense corn crop in Central Illinois was never better. — MURDERED BY A NEGRO. A Triple Tragedy Which May Resultin a ZLynching. MEMPHIS, Texx., July 21.—What will doubtless prove a triple murder by a negro occurred in Perry County, south of Me- ridian, Miss., Jast night. The victims were Mrs. A. D. Harttield and her two daughters, 14 and 16 years old respectively. 7 The assault on the girls was made with a hatchet while they were attending to the cows and their screams attracted the mother, who was, upon her appearance, shot three times. Mrs. Hartfield described the negro and he was identified as Tom Johnson, but he has thus far avoided ar- rest. The assailant ransacked the house for money and jewelry. The lynching of him is certain to follow his arrest. B RIVAL CLANS AT PEACE. An Fxpected Clash Between Catholic Factions Fails to Materialize. TOLEDO, Ouro, July 21.—Nothing out of the ordinary occurred to molent the Sabbath peace of St. Hedwigs Polish Cath- olic parish, where yesterday there were every indications of a fierce clash of the factions opposing and supporting the ob- jectionable priest, Rev. Ef) J. Wilczorek. To avoid the conflict that seemed immi- nent the latter did not hold the usual services and kept aloof from his congrega- tion during the day. It is now thought that the difficulty between Father Wilcz- orek and his flock will be smoothed over, though the influence of the head of the diocese may be necessary. WRRESTED I HS PULPIT Dowie, the Chicago Divine Healer, Again Placed In Jail. Taken From Church by an Officer Amid the Protests of the Congregation. CHICAGO, TrL., July 21.—Dr. John Alexander Dowie, the Chicago divine healer, who is becoming well known as a frequent prisoner in police courts, was taken from his pulpit by a police officer this morning. Quite a scene was enacted. When Dowie was told that an officer was waiting outside for him, he said to his congregation: “I am informed that there is an officer here for me. If he wants me, let him take me from this place, the tabernacle of the Most High. I will not go into a corner to be arrested. Let the man have the cour- age to come and take me where I stand.”” There was an immediate cry of ‘“out- rage!” from the congregation, but the offi- cer walked up tbe aisle of the church and took his man. Dowie is arrested on the old charge of running a hospital without a license. e B KILLED FOR TREACHERY. A Noted Criminal Laid Low by a Load of Buckshot. S8T. LOUIS, Mo., July 21.—George Mec- Fadden was shot and mortally wounded in the suburbs of East St. Louis this after- noon. He was brought to his home on South Sixth street, this city, to-night, and before he became unconscious he said he shot himself by accident with a pistol, but investigation shows he was shot with a gun loaded with buckshot. McFadden assisted Prentice Tiller, who robbed the Adams Express Company in this city twelve years ago of $12,000. Both were arrested, but McFadden never re- turned his share of the plunder. After two years in the State prison, McFadden joined Marion Hedgepeth, the train rob- gxer. It was through McFadden’s treach- ery that Hedgepeth was arrested and sent to the penitentiary. Sincehis return here, two years ago, he has been allowed to re- main unmo?ested by the police in' consid- eration of pointing” out noted crooks. In this he has been faithful and the police say that the fatal shot was fired to-day by one of the crooks he has informed upon. Gt e Death of Professor Robinson. LAWRENCE, Kaxs., July 21.—Professor D. H. Robinson, who has held the chair of ancient and Latin languagesand literature at the Kansas University for twenty-six vears, or since the foundation of the school, died this evening at his home in this city of typhoid fever.

BERLIN, GerMaxy, July 21.—The Em- veror 1s making the most of his pleasure trip to Sweden, losing no opportunity to enjoy himself thorough He reached Hersosand on board the imperial yacht Hohenzollern on Friday, and on Saturday took a trip on an excursion steamer up the River Angerman, the loveliest stream in Sweden. He returned late in the after- noon, and enjoyed a dramatic entertain- ment on board the Hohenzollern in the evening. His Majesty yesterday gave orders to get everything ready on board the Hohenzollern to sail at once, his trip o the northward having ended. Through- out his trip he has declined to be regarded as a State guest, and refused to coun- tenance any public demonstration in hisg honor. He declined a formal reception at the hands of the authorities, and spent the greater part of the day while there in dic- tating dispatches. It is surmised from in- cidents that those dispatches relate in some way to the situationin Bulgaria, growing out of the murder of Stambuloff. ‘Whether or not the friendship of the Emperor for King Oscar had the effect of impressing the majority in the Swedish Storting with the necessity for proceeding with caution it is a fact that the tension between the King and the Storting has greatly relaxed, and an effort is being made to form a coalition Ministry, com- posed chiefly of Moderates. The King is greatly gratified at finding that his oppo- nents have conceded the roval grants in the shape in which he demanded them. The only disturbing rumor. now abroad is that a committee of Radicals have pri- vately agreed to make a proposition in the Storting for an extraordinary credit for 11,500,000 kroner for the purpose of buying two ironclad warships, three torpedo-boats and a quantity of new rifles and ammuni- tion, and the construction of fortified posts at Toensberg, Christiansand, Bergen® and Drontheim. Whether or not this rumor is correct in detail there is no doubt that some such project is on foot. In the meantime the Radicals are keeping very quiet and abiding events. The recent German and Dutch naval demonstrations at Tangier. which were forced upon both by outrages committed upon German and Dutch subjects in Morocco, seemed likely to cause a serious quarrel with France. The murder of a German trader named Rockskop and the plundering of the Dutch brig Marie Anne a short time ago led at first to diplomatic representations which proved to be futile. These were followed by the presence of four German and two Dutch warships in Moorish waters, whereupon the Sultan promised to execute the murderers or somebody else and also to pay an indem- nity. This having been reported to the Berlin Government orders were imme- diately sent to German warships to remain in Moorish waters until both the German and the Dutch indemnities were paid. The German Consul at Tangier acted in behalf of the Dutch Government in the affair and the fact obviously inspired the recent articles in the Paris Journal des Debats warning Germany to keep her hands off Morocco if she desired to maintain good relations with France. The Vossische Zeitung, replying to thesa articles, called upon the Berlin Govern. ment to give a fitting reply to the inso- lence of Franceif the question should be raised officially.
