Weyler is wholly confident of success. Colonel Escribano, chief of his staff, has xpiained that in spite of the season, which is more detrimental to the Span- jards than the Cubans, General Garcia will probably engage in open batties more frequently than Gomez, because he feels stronger and has a more reckless disposi- tion. If such is the case, and the Cubans abandon guerrilla tactics, Spain can afford to lose 30,000 men, having still great ad- vantage over the insurgents in numbers and resources, La Lucha aquotes Spanish General Legura as saying that In @ recent engage- ment near Tunas the horse ridden by General Gomez was shot under him. Spanisa officials, with this revort as a basis, are industriously circulating a re- port that Gomez has been killed. MADRID, Srars, Jone 26.—Premier Canovas said to-day that all the Spanish generals returning to Spain from Cuba agree that the present system of conduct- ing the war is the only one suitable to the circumstances. Those officers, the pre- mier also declared, positively deny the charges of cruelty against Weyler. —— HOLD UP A 8TAGE CUACH. Cuban Insurgents Kilt Scouts and Guer- rillas and Capture Treasure.

NEW YORK, N. Y., June 26.—Dr. and Mrs. J. N. Bishop were passengers on the | | steamer Ouio to-day for Sonthampton. In | the course of their travels abroad they in- | tend visiting Russia. Knowing that this cannot be done without a passport, the doctor applied to the State Department for his official identification. That was, | about four weeks ago. In looking up Bishop’s record the department found | that he was born in Canada snd had | moved to Mississippi when 21. When the | war broke out he joined the Union army |and served under General Howard. At | its close Bishop was appointed Postmas- ter in his adopted_State and held several | elective offices. Later he came to New | York. | _Having ascertained all this the Sta | Department asked Bishop for his naturali- | zation papers.

Application was made by telegraph and | this reply was received: “Under regula- | tions approved by the Goveranor-General no passport can be issued to persons not | residing in Canada.

Tweive dead | badies have aiready been recovered. The disaster was caused by the recent Leavy | rainfall, which with the cyclone winds greatly weakened the bridge. The train | consisted of an engine, shreg mail coaches, smoging-car and Puliman sleeper from | Denver, and was scheduled to reach St. Louis at 2:30 A. M., where it connected | with fast mail trains for the East, North, South and Southwest. It is not known how many passengers were aboard. A | wrecking crew left here at8 o'clock for the scene.

H. 8now, a tescher in the public achools at Union Academy, this county, reports a most ghastly find on the Ben Franklin |and Honey Grove road. Some parties traveling along the road had their ate tention drawn to the projection of a por- } tion of what appeared to be the crown of a human skull from a very deep wagon rut. Investigation was begun, and notonly a | skull but an entire skeleton was un- earthed, which was in an apparently ax- cellent state of preservation. The find created much excitement in the neigh- borhood until the mystery was explained by one of the oldest settlers. He related that immediately after the close of the Civil War an old man who '1as traveling home was foully murdered. He stopped over night with a farmer, and the day | following his saddle bags, six-shooter and {a smail quantity of monsy was found he was riding was found feeding on the ]prnirls near by, but no trace could be | found of the murdered rider, aithough a | diligent search was made. The skeleton | when unearthed yesterday was found to have been pinioned to the ground by a | wooden stake which had been driven | through the breast of the murdered man, | evilently at the time he was murdered. | His remains have been reinterred.

Pond | of Corning, lowa, was fatally shot this | morning by a band of six wmen who were trying to hold up an accommeodation train on the Burlington road as it ap- proached this city. Pond is a cattieman, and when the train stopped in the yards, he went to the door of the rear coach pr- paratory to getting off. The six bandits were just preparing to begin operations, and were evidently surprised at the ap- | proach of Pond. Pistols were leveled at bim and he was ordered to throw up his hands. He siarted to run back to warn the passengers, when he was shot through the back and dropped wounded at tne door. The shot aroused the passengers, who poured out on tHe platform, while the robbers fled into_the darkness. Pond was brought to the City Hospital and will die.

Revolutionists Had Been Boasting and Threatening All Sorts of Things. Agents From Every European Cap- ital Aided Scotland Yard In Checking Plotters. [Copyrighted 1897 by the New York Sun.] LONDON, Exg., June ¢ The public may never know the details of all the arrangements of the British political police for safeguarding the Queen and some of her royal visitors against crimi- nals and cranks on jubilee day. They were on a prodigious scale, and included the use of police agents from every capital in Europe. Inspector Melville was in charge. He admits that he never worked barder nor bad a more anxious time, British revolutionists had been boasting and ibreatening all sorts of things. Rumors of dynamite preparations had been current for a couple of months. The impression prevailed that the explosion ty which a train on tne underground rail- road was wrecked a month ago was a rehearsal of a jubilee plot. There were grounds for believing tnat something of the kind 'was contemplated, but that the plan was abandoned because men were not found with courage enough to take the risks involved. . Then it was decidea to flood the line of the procession with revolutionary litera- ture. This wild scheme was given up be- cause there were no funds to do business upon a flooding. scale, and comrades in | the printing business were so lost to a proper sense of duty as to require pay- ment in advance. Asfar as the police were able to ascer- tain only one man ventured to distribute leaflets. He had only just started when grabbed and hustled to Scotland Yard. He bad several hundred leaflets poorly printed. On one side was a jubilee hymn in glorification of rebellion. On the other side was a prociamation signed ‘‘London Revolutionists.” It unpolitely speaks of | the Queen as a “fat old woman evidently destined by nature for the wash tub, but | elevated by fortune to the throne.” It then proceeds to say nasiy tbings abou: | her Maujesty’s guests and visitors. JUDGES FOE AKIZONA. | Riram C. Truesdale Nominated ~Chief Justice of the Territory. WASHINGTON, D. C.,, June 26.—The | President sent 1he following nominations Herman C.

PH@ENIX, Ariz, June 26.—Telegrams from Washington announce the appoint- ment by the President of the four District Judges for Arizona.

The case is one of more than passing in- terest, both on account of the prominence of the man in Marin County political | circles and the questions of law arising. | Creed is allowed his freedom until Mon- day on a writ of habeas corpus obtamed | on Friday by his_atiorney from Superior Juage Carroll Cook, who is acting in | Judge Angellotti's place during the lat- ter’s absence. Attorney Thomas P. Boyd | claims that Jud.e Pryor hoids two pub- | lic positions in _the gift of the people— | Town Clerk of Sausaiito and Judge of the | Recorder’s court. | When Pryor was elected Town Clerk, Boyd claims, the office of Recorder, as far as Pryor was concerned, became vacant. However that may be Pryor has acted 1 both capacities, and the question as to his right to do so has never arisen until now. Th~ matter will come up Monday before Judge Cook on the hearing of the habeas corpus proceedings. Judge Pryor refused to discuss the proposition to-day, stating that he would first hear what the Superior Court had to say in the premises. The Creed case has greatly interested Sausalitans. The Marshal, in an alterca- tion with Peter Claudianus, the proprietor of the yachthouse and a man 60 years old, struck the old men s numberof times, according to the tes'imony of witnesses. Claudianus had the Marshal arrested and the case was tried betore Judge Prvor and 8 jury, the result being a verdict of “guilty as charged.”” When sentence was pronounced Creed was astounded, for he must either pay $150 or go to the lock- up for the same number of days. He w. given a week in which to either pay or go 10 jail. His attorney obtained 2 tempo- rary freedom on a writ of habeas corpus. Attorney Boyd feels confident that he will effect the release of his cliant.
