Cuban Patriots Handicapped in Their Struggle for Freedom. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 9.—“There | are now 30,000 men in the Cuban insurgent | army and volunteers would easily swell | the forces to 50,000 if more arms and ammunition could be secured. The lack of it may prolong the war, bat victory in the end is believed to be certain.” This was the burden of a letter received from General Joseph Rodriguez by Gen- eral Estrada Palma at the Cuban head- quarters, 66 Broadway, yesterday. Gen- eral Rodriguez is chief of staff of General Roloff, the commander-in-chief. The letter was dated at Las Villas and related in detail the efforts of General Rodriguez in organizing the forces in that part of Cuba. Fully 10,000 men, cavalry and infantry, were drilled under General Rodriguez. He caused these forces to be placed in two divisions, the first of which was placed in command of General Serafin Sanchez, and the second under General Manuel Suarez. Each division includes two brigades, and in each brigade are three regiments. These forces, General | Rodriguez writes, are 'now occupying the | territory of Santa Clara, Santa Spinto, Remedios, Sagua and Cienfuegos. Every day, it is declared, companies of young | men from 100 to 150 in number, filled with enthusiasm for the cause, volunteer to join the insurgent army. A FAVORS CUBA’S CAUSE.

Iam entirely in sympathy with | our Cuban neighbors, and will make use of every proper effort tbat I can as a Senator to assist them in their struggle for inde- pendence and in the establishment of a republican form of government." s COST OF THE WAR. Spain Compelled to Rorrow Fifteen Million Dollars. MADRID, Searx, Oct. 9.—The Cabinet | has signed a loan of $15,000,000 with the | Banque de Paris et Du Pay Bas, wholly | for Cubanexpenses. One-third of the loan | is payable between November1land 10, and the remaining installments will be paid in December and February.

Raids Made Upon the British Cemetery and French Consulate, LONDON, ExG., Oct. 9. — A dispatch to | the Pall Mall Gazette from Antanarivo says than on September 25 a native mob | raided the British cemetery at the Hova | capital, broke open coffins and mutilated | bodies. The mob also attacked the French | observatory, destroyed it, and menaced with destruction the house of the French Resident. The two armies are now in sight of the capital, and the firing of skirmishers can bz plainly heard. Native soldiers are flock- ing into town, and re-enforcements are rapidly being sent to the front. Promi- nent Hovas have left the city upon a di- plomatic mission.

Demonstrations at Breslau Prevented by the Authorities. BRESLAU, Prussia, Oct. 9.—The arrest and expulsion from Germany of Dr. Ellen- borgen, Austrian delegate to the socialistic congress, yesterday, is attributed to a speech made by him in laudation of socialism, together with his entering Germany without proper papers. | The report of the expulsion from congress of Frau Zelkin, editress of the Stutigart Gleichheit, was erroneous. She delivered & speech in the congress ugon the subject of the emancipation of women. The authorities forbade the delegates to march in procession to the tomb of Lasalle to-day as they had mntended to do, and | they were obliged to proceed to the| cemetery in small groups, and lay wreaths upon the grave. The tableaux vivants which had been arranged for to-night were also forbidden by the police. rolagin T REVOLUTION I VENEZUELA. Reports of an Uprising in the nterior of the Cowuntry.

ENDED 1N A TANGLE, Hours of Oratory in the Episcopal House of Deputies. “PRIMATE” THE THEME. Report of the Bishops Borne Down by a Mass of Amendments. OPPOSED TO LIFE - TENURE. Delegates Adopt a Clause Giving Power to Remove the Head of the Church. MINNEAPOLIS, Mixx., Oct. 9.—When the Episcopal deputies adjourned to-night after listening to more oratory than has illuminated any previous day of the gen- | eral convention nine-tenths or more of the | number were groping in the dark and wondering just ‘“‘where they were at.” For hour after hour the debate had been progressing on the report from the Bish- ops designating by the title of “‘primate’” the one who some day in the dim and dis- tant future might by virtue of seniority be the head of the chureh, but amendment after amendment had been piled upon each other and then dovetailed into each other, and then the whole mass kneaded into a big ball upon which was planted a substitute that covered anything and | everything that had gone before, until the parliamentarians ghemselves were bewil- dered and confusion became confounded. To-morrow morning a vigorous effort will be made to agree with the reportof the Bishops and clear the matter from the cal- endar. The only other important development of the day was the reaffirmation by the house of the title “Bishop Coadjutor” as a substitute for ‘“‘Assistant Bishop,” and the receipt of a message from the House of Bishops approving the section of article four of the revision providing for the creation of five ‘‘provinces’’ in this country, each province to be presided over by an “Archbishop.”” The provision of the re- visionis: ‘“The Bishops of each province shall arrange one of their number to be primate of the province.” The message will come up for consideration later. It is said to-night that the Bishops have gone through seven articles of the consti- tution while the house is still on the third section of the first. The early proceedings of the day were brightened by a breezy contest for the location of the next convention. Dr. W. A. Roberts spoke for Louisville, Dr. Law- rence and Edward L. Davis made a plea for Boston, Dr. E. B. Spalding elcquently pictured the advantages of San Francisco, and Rev. John Percival presented New Orleans, the metropolitan city of the South. This latter nomination was promptly voted down and the prize was apparently | going to Boston, when Rev. A. W. Knight of Atlanta electrified his hearers with a brilliant presentation of tbat city, enlarg- ing upon incidents in its history during the past thirty years, and insisted that the influence of the church was needed in At- lanta more than in any other city that had been named. When a vote was taken it was apparent from the start that Mr. Knight had snatched victory from the ap- parently successful Boston at the eleventn hour, and when a division was called for so few of the delegates arose in opposition that the majority was not counted. Without debate, the house reaffirmed its approval of the message from the Bishops providing for Bishop Coadjutors. The clerical vote was 38 ayes, 11 noes, 6divided; lay vote, 29 ayes, 19 noes, 4 divided. Then the much debated ‘Primate” loomed up again. Most of the speakers had been heard on previous days and few new faces were seen or voices heard on the rostrum. Dr. Huntington of New York, who wanted to make the office a matter of seniority, said, amid laughter, that they did not want the Primate to be too active, for they were not desirous of being too much governed. Rev. Dr. McKim made the point that one of the younger Bishops might be the senior in point of consecration. As the debate proceedéd afier the recess consid- erable feeling was manifested by some of the speakers. Dr. Jewell of Milwaukee was in favor of a Primate in the election by the church. Dr. Morrison of Albany argued that the office of Primate, or Pre- siding Bishop, was not created for the pur- pose of conferring honor upon any par- ticular individual. The American manner of settling a question of this kind was by election, and he did not see why it should not pertain ‘in the House of Bishops as well as in this house. Rev. Patrick G. Robert of Missouri also favored the elec- tive system. Dr. Blanchard of Peansyl- vania raised his voice in warning against the evils which might attend the elective system if introduced into the House of Bishops. Dr. Carmichael of Virginia resented a previous ' speaker’s imputation that the House of Bishops would be glad to have the House of Deputies director in favor of the elective series. Dr. Jewell defended himself against the implied accusation that he had cast a slur upon the House of Bisbops in assuming that they would be pleased if the House of Deputies should | favor the elective plan. . A vote was taken upon the substitute o Dr. Webber of Fond du Lac, in which te moved the adoption of the section as pre- sented in the report of the joint committee with the word “Primate’’ substituted for *| “Primus.” This was lost by a large ma- jority. The question then fell upon Dr. Hunt- ington’s amendment to Mr. Parker's | amendment to artiole 3, as presented in the message from the House of Bishops. This section, as adopted by the House of Bishops, provides that the senior Bishop shall be presiding officer, to be known ax Primate, and hold office for lile. Mr. Parker’s amendment provides for the election by a majority of those entitled to vote in the House of Bishops of a suc- cessor to the Primate should he resign or be removed, and Dr. Huntington’s amend- ment provides that the successor in such a contingency shall be the next Bishop in order of seniority. Rev. Dr. Rhodes of Southern Ohio moved the adoption of a substitute, which provides that the removal of a Primate from office should be by a vote of a ma- jority of those entitled to vote in the House of Bishops. Mr. Nash of North Carolina moved to strike out the words *‘For canonical causes,” in Dr. Huntington’s amendment, ‘on the grounda that there could be no canonical causes for the removal of a Priraate. The words were stricken out, Dr. Murdoek of North Carolina moved to reconsider the vote of the previous day whereby the title of Presiding Bishop was rejected, but the motion was lost by a vote of 149 to 157. Dr. Hodges of Massachusetts moved to insert the paragraph relating to tenure of office of a Primate, the words “Unless he resign or be removed by a majority of those entitled to vote in the House of Bishops.” This motion was adopted by a vote of 156 to 91. The house was about to take a vote on Dr. Huntington’s substitute- when Dr. Hodges came to the front with still an- other, which in effect approved the clause as it came from the Bishops with the word “Primate,” and with the provision that the Primate shall hold office for life unless he resign or be removed from that office by a vote of the majority of the Bishops entitled to vote 1n the House of Bishops. Although portions of this substitute had been previously voted down when pre- sented as a main question, the chairman ruled that it was germane and covered all the points of the amendments and substi- tutes pending. Two or three pariiamen- tarians were on their feet to question this ruling when the legislative day expired and the committee arose. The House of Bishops to-day decided to divide the jurisdiction now known as the diocese of Wyoming and Idaho, and give one diocese to each State. Bishop Talbot, however, will continue to have joint juris- diction. It was also decided to attach the vacant missionary Bishopric of Western Colorado to the diocese of Nevada and Utah, and Bishop Abiel Leonard will here- after be known as Bishop of Nevada, Utah and Western Colorado. —-— AL CONCLAVE. IN TRIENN Congregationali Open Their Conven- tion at Syrdcuse. SYRACUSE, N. Y., Oct. 9.—For the first time in the history of the Congregational Church the triennial council met in the Empire State to-day. The council will be in session until next Monday evening. The address of welcome, delivered by Rev. E. N. Packard, D.D., of Syracuse, was fol- lowed by remarks by Rev. Dr. Quint, the retiring moderator. Governor Nelson Dingley of Maine was unanimously elected moderator. Rev. Charles O. Biown of San Francisco and Professor George W. Henderson of Strait University, Louisiana, were chosen assist- ant moderators. At the afternoon session the report of the provisional committee was presented. It was suggested that a special committee be appointed at this session, charged with the duty of correspondence with all other bodies likely to be represented in the sec- ond international council of Congregation- alism in Boston in 1900, and with any pre- liminary arrangements which may be found expedient. It referred to the death of two members of the committee—Rev. M. \W. Montgom- ery of Chicago, died February 6, 1894, and Hamilton A. Hill of Boston, April 26, 1895. Mr. Hill was a fine specimen of an intelligent and broad - minded layman. The history and traditions of the Old South Church in Boston were represented in him more appreciatively than in any other man, and the two fine volames in which he had embodied them will live as his me- morial. This report’ was followed by that of Sec- retary Rev. H. A. Hazen of Boston. The report of the treasurer, Rev. Bamuel B. Forbes of Hartford, Conn., for the three years ending July 31, 1895, was read. The auditor, the trustees of the National coun- cil and the committee on ministerial re- lief followed with reports. Rev. James Brand of Oberlin, Ohio, read a paper on “Doctrinal Preaching.” Rev, F.'W. Gun- saulus of Chicago spoke to-night in Ply- mouth Church. T0 CONTROL STAGE STARS, Formation of a Theatrical Syndicate by Prominent Managers. Its Primary Purpose Is to Secure a Serles of First-Ciass Pro~ ductions. DETROIT, Mich.,, Oct. 9.—Henry C. Miner, J. H. McVicker and Joseph Brooks to-day completed the plans for a syndicate of theatrical members that will have an important bearing on the future of the stage. After the meeting to-day the three men interested said that the plan in the first place, was to supply their own and other theaters with zBumm entertain- ments that would always be high class. They have hired'an agent in London to watch for the best productions there and to secure options on anything that isa novelty and of excellence.” They also con- tracted with George R. Sims of London to write a melodrama slny; with Wilson Morse and J. Chever Goodwin to write a musical comedy, and with Bierrs de Cour- celles for a historical play. They will se- cure two companies, made up of the best people they can hire, and one of these will open next June in a musical comedy at cVickers Theater, Chicago, the other opening in Miner's Fifth-avenue Theater, ew York, in the fall in 8ims’ new melo- drama. The syndicate will adopt trade- marks for all its companies and p! ays, and its purpose is to establish in the minds of the people and managers a confidence that anything they send out must of necessity be first class.” By having two central points of production they will avoid a lot of ex- pense. 3 In addition to this they are to go into the general business of managing stars and their companies and stars with- out companies. Offices have been se cured in New York and others will be secured in Chicago, while others will ba secured in the leading cities of the Old World. Mo el v TRIAL OF THE INDIANA.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 9. — The Department of Agriculture has been ad- vised of the discovery of pleuro-pnenmo- nia in_cattle shipped from Australia to Great Britain. This is an important mat- ter to the United States, inasmuch as Australia promised to become a serious competitor of this country in the Euro- pean meat and cattle trade. The exist- ence ol‘pleurmpneumonln in the first ship- ment of Australian cattle is for this reason significant. —_—— Stubbs Appointed Receiver.

The Mississippian a Sirong Supporter of the Present Administration. CLAIMED BY THE SOUTH. It Is Thought the Appointee Will Come From Below Mason and Dixon's Line. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 9.—If Presi- dent Cleveland concludes to go south of Mason and Dixon’s line in making his selection of a successor to the late Asso- ciate Justice of the Supreme Court Jack- son, the friends of Hon. Thomas Catch- ings of Mississippi are of the opinion that that Representative will receive the ap- pointment. Mr. Catchings was one of the Democratic leaders of the last Congress, and being the second member of the important Commit- tee on Rules was the representative of Speaker Crisp on the floor of the House. He was also chairman of the Committee on Rivers and Harbors. Catchings is a warm friend of the President,and has always been a strong supporter of the ad- ministration. During the recent campaign in Mississippi he made a thorough canvass of the State, making speeches in the inter- est of gold money. It was to Mr. Catch- ings that the President addressed his famous letter regarding the action of cer- tain Democratic members at the time of the consideration of the Wilson bill. Catchings was in the Confederate army; was elected a member of the State Senate for four years, but resigned upon his elec- tion as Attorney-General of the Statein 1877; was renominated and re-elected in 1881, but resigned at the time of his elec- tion to the Forty-ninth Congress, of which body he has since been a member. He is a member-elect to the Fifty-fourth Con- gress. Catchings’ reputation as a first-class lawyer extends throughout the South. He has been engaged as counsel in many im- portant cases that have come up for judi- cial determination in the Southern coun- try. Hetook a leading part looking to the redemption of the Southern States during the era of reconstruction when that section was controlled by ringsters and those who upheld “carpetbag” rule. His Southern friends will make a strong and united ef- fort to have him appointed. The Supreme Court now consists of three Democrats and five Republicans. Justices White of Louisiana and Harlan of Kentucky, the latter Republican, are the only Southern representatives on the bench. The late Justice Jackson was a Tennessesan. This being the case the ad- mirers of Mr. Catchings are of ‘the opinion that the next appointee will be a Southern man. i ! gl KINGS COUNTY DEMOCRATS. Candidates Chosem at a Convention in Tammany Hall. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 9.—The Dem- ocratic County Convention met to-night at Tammany Hall and nominated the fol- lowing ticket: For Justices of the Su- preme Court—Charles H. Truax, Frederick 8myth and Charles F. MacLean; for Judges of the Court of General Sessions— Joseph E. Newberger and General Martin T. McMabon; for Justices of the City Court—Robert A. Van Wyck, John P. Suchman and Edward F. Dwyer; for County Clerk—Henry D. Purdoy; for Reg- ister—William Sohmer. The platform strongly indorses the ad- ministration of President Cleveland, and after scoring the Republicans and their al- lies for the presentation of ‘a hybrid ticket and a deceitful declaration of policy” for the purpose of catehing votes, presents a strong excise plank, which says: We favor the enforcement of law, but pro- test against and denotncs the discrimination that has been made between the rich and the poor in the severe, oppressive and unintelli- gent exercise of power by the Police Board of the city. It favors the immediate enactment by the next Legislature of a modification of the present oppressive excise laws, and, in additicn, promises to propose to and en- deavor to obtain from the coming Legisla- ture a law which will enable thiscom- munity to determine for itself, by popular vote, whether the sale of food, beverages and all the necessaries shall be permitted on the first day of the week during certain prescribed hours, and in a manner 80 re- stricted as not to interfere with religious observances. apl gl gy THE CAMPAIGN IN OHIO.

Bushnell addressed an immense audience at Music Hall to-night. Ex-Governor Foraker spoke of the foreign and domestic policies of the Cleveland ad- ministration as being inadequate and in- famous; the Wilson bill, by which the ex- vorts decreased and the imports increased, with a diminution of revenue; referred to the condition of the treasury, and the re- turn of prosperity whena Republican Con- gress was elected. McKinley, Bushnell and other speakers followed. The audi- ence was enthusiastic, and the meeting was one of the largest gatherings bere for years. —_—— FEUD OF NEBRASKA DEMOCRATS. Rival Factions to Fight Thelr Baftles in Court. LINCOLN, Nesg., Oct. 9.—The fight be- tween the two factions of the Democratic party in Nebraska bids fair to end in the courts before election. The free silver branch to-day began suit in the Supreme Court to enjoin tbe ‘‘hard money” men from designating themselves as “Demo- crats” on the official bailot, as Secretary of Btate Piper has decided they have a right to. The papers were filed and the hearing set for October 15. e — PLANNING MURDER IN JAI1L. Dr. Meyer Would Add Another Victim to His List. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 9.—Warden Sage of the State prison at Sing Sing has discovered evidence almost conclusive that Dr. Henry C. Meyer has been planning another murder since he wassent to prison for life for poisoning Ludwig Brandt. The .crime that he is believed to have plotted 18 similar to the killing of Brandt, and for a similar purpose—that of receiving life insurance money. This money, if thus gained, was to be used to effect the old doctor's release from prison. The evidence consists chiefly of letters and memoranda found in Meyer's cell. These have been placed in the hands of General Lathrop, superintendent _ of risons. In these letters heis alleged to ave given his accomplices directions how to get the desired policy of insurance on the proposed victim’s {ife, and carry out the rest of the plan. There have been several masons and other mechanics em- ph?ed on the walls during the summer, and it is suspected that some one of these has afforded the prisoners means of com- munication with outside accomplices. e LOST IN A FOREST. 4 Pennsylvania Woman Belleved to Have Been Devoured by Wild Beasts. HAZELTON, Pa., Oct. 9.—The village of Buck Mountain, four miles south of here, is greatly excited over the mysterious dis- appearance of Mrs. Patrick Breslin. Last Saturday she left her home ostensibly to visit her aunt, Mrs. Harkins, who lives near Lanrytown. Between these points is a dense forest. Mrs. Breslin was seen to enter the woods, and since then all trace of her has been lost. Wildcats, cougars and bears are numerous there. As the night went by and she did not emerge from the wilderness, it was thought that she had lost her way. A searching party was oreanized yester- day tolook for the woman. The forest was scoured. One of the explorers found a piece of a skirt and the sole of a woman’s shoe, but whether the relics belonged to the missing woman or not is unknown. The fact, howeyer, was made known, ex- cited the community and a systematic search was made. All day the woods were invaded by the villagers, and at nocon hun- greds of persons had been interested in the unt. As night fell and no trace of the woman had been found her husband began to de- spair. He believes she lost her way and was attacked by wild animals. Last night the mountain side was illuminated by fires and searchers were running hither and thither. A signal station has been estab- lished so that any one can signal the searchers. TH NEN CUP EFERDES American Yachtsmen Will Not Depend Upon the Defender Next Year. Hereshoff to Construct an Ocean Flyer to Meet the English Challenge. BRISTOL, R. I., Oct. 9.—The season of 1896 will be the greatest ever known in the history of yachting. Already notices of the building of five boats have come from Canada and Great Britain, and there will be positively one and in all probability two built in this country. The story a week ago that Hereshoff was to build a boat for a rich syndicate with H. 8; Munyon of Philadelphia at its head, has been a source of speculation among all yachtmen in the Bast. There is absolutely nothing being given out from official sources as yet, but the rumor itself is true. To-day, bowever, a new sensation was sprung,as it was announced authorita- tively that a new cup defender wasto be built by the cup committee. * Additional truth is given to the statement by the knowledge that during - the past week members of the committee have been vis- iting the Hereshoft yards and have had st}vq:{ consyltations with the veteran de- igner. i hat the nature ot these consultations were was not given out, but it is the gen- eral opinion that it was concerning the building of a new yacht. Nat Hereshoff, when seen to-day, stated that in all probability a new cup defender would be built during the coming year. In fact, he had received an intimation to that effect, but was not privileged to give the names of the backers of the scheme. *‘I look for the greatest year ever known in the history of America cup races, and it would be absolute folly for me to depend on the Defender, although I do not doubt her ability to meet the best of the numer- ous challengers which are being built. In these days, when each yéar sees such strides made in )'lchtlng, it would, tn say the least, be very rash. A great many people have underestimated the strength of tga Valkyrie. ‘‘She is not the poor boat that many people think. She is the finest boat ever sent to compete for the cup, and better than anything ever built in_this country before the Defender. The Defender is a wonder; in fact she astonishes even me by her performances. Yes, there will be a new boat next year.” This announcement is authoritative, and sets aside all rumors to the effect that the Defender would enter the field alone next year. ———— JUMPED FROM THE TRACK. One Man Killed and Twenty-Five In- Jured in a Railvoad Disaster. PITTSBURG, Pa., Oct. 8.—One man was killed and twenty-five persons were injured at Manor station, on the Pennsyl- vania Railroad, 224 miles east of here, at 7:30 to-night by a car on the westbound mail train 13 jumping the track. John Miller, a {freight conductor of Derry, Pa., lost his life. ‘What caused the accident cannot yet be ascertained. From some unknown cause the next to the rear coach left the track while the train was running at a good speed. The car that left the track turned in an opposite way from that in which the train was going. This coach and the one following were wrecked and it was the Fnundgan in these two coaches that were njured. iller, who was killed, was a conductor | of a freight train standing on another track. He was killed by one of the wrecked passenger coaches ¢rushing him as he stood alongside his train. pkoin et SMITH-DENT MARRJIAGE. AMany People of National Prominence Attend the Ceremony.

Wild Enthusiasm When Sympathy for Struggiing Cubans Is Declared. ATLANTA, GA., Oct. 9.—With the most impressive ceremonies that have yet marked the progress of the Cotton States exposition, the historic old Liberty Bell was to-day formally placed in charge of the Atlanta authorities. The ceremonies | took place on the broad stairs leading up | to the stately Pennsylvania building, the | handsomest in the beautiful park and on the most attractive site. The day was full of incidents, some of | them of striking character, but the most | significant was the declaration of sym- | pathy with the cause of Cuba, made with dramatic effect by both Governor Atkin- son of Georgia and Mayor Warwick of Philadelphia, both of whom aroused wild enthusiasm from the great crowd that heard them. Again was there a dramatic scene when Mayor Warwick, in the course of his bril- liant oration, turned to Miss Eleanor War- ren Marshall, who was on the platform, and introduced her as the great-grand- daughter of the illustrious Supreme Court Justice at whose funeral the venerated relic had tolled for the last time. Miss Marshall, in a strikingly handsorie gown, looked very pretty. She isa brunette, slen- der and graceful, and her eyes filled with tears and she trembled with emotion as the Philadelphia Mayor paid her the most graceful compliment ever paid in public to a young woman. He eloquently thanked Miss Marshall for the privilege of greeting the descendant of so illustrious a man, and declared that |the emotion that filled his breast at that moment would never be forgotten; that he would tell his children of the honor be- stowed upon him and bid them cherish the memory of this day to the end of their! lives. 2 Through a solid line of people the bell was escorted to its resting-place in Pied- mont Park.
