4 THE SA FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, AUGUST 15, 1897. CAMPOS HEADS A NEW CABINET Madrid Cablegram That Causes a Sensation in Havana. Senor Sagasta Is Selected as Minister of Forelign Affairs. Weyler's Rule In Cuba About at an End, as He WIll Surely Be Recalled. HAVANA, Cusa (via Key West, Fia.), Aug. 14.—A cable dispatch from Madrid to Havana newspapers says that a new Cabinet has been formed in Spain as fol- lows: President of the Council of Ministers—Gen- eral Martinez Campos. Minister of Foreign Affairs—Senor Sagasta. Minister of Marine—Senor Maura, Minfster of the Colonies—Sen or Moro. Minister of the Interior—Senor Silvels. Minister of War—General Polavieja. Minister of Finance—Senor Gamazo. The dispatch says that the new Ministry has not yet taken the oath, but that, with perhaps some slight modifications, it has met with the approval of the Queen. All the principal elements of the two monar- chical parties are represented. The news has created a great sensation in Havana, as the Presidency of General Martinez Campos and the presence of Senors Sagasta, Maura and Silyla in the Government seem to indicate a great change in the colonial policy of Spain. 1t undoubtedly foreshadows the recall of Weyler, to whose policy Campos has always been opposed. Cubans hope that the new Government will consider how useless it is for Spain to sacrifice men and money to maintain an endless war in the island. If any change is made in the Cabinet, it will still remain on tte same basis—a representative Ministry of all Monarchists, inciuding the Conservative and Liberal parties. - FURTHER CUBAN FVICTORIES. Confirmation of Molina’s Death Causes Consternation, HAVANA, Cusa, (via Key West, Fia.), Aug. 14.—The situation at Havana con- tinues very grave. The well-known Ve- dado ward, 1n the capital itself, was at- tacked last night by insurgents ana nearly all the stores in it, among them the pharmacy of Dr. Bueno, sacked. Itseems really wonderful that no resistance was made to the insurgents and that they left Vedado without having a single man killed or wounded. The news of the killing of the Spanish General Molina in the bard engagemont with insurgentsat Matanzas isconfirmed. General Molina was well known for his cruelty. His death has created a sens tion only equaled by that produced by the death of General Santcildes in the battle of Peralejo during the first months of the war, A convoy from Havana to Rincon was seized by the Cubans very near the capi- tal. At Guines, also near Havana, the bridge over the Mayabee River has been blown up by the insurgents, the losses of the Spanish Government being estimated at $50,000. Weyler is in disgrace and in a few days will embark for Spain. The combat at Tapaste, near Havana, on last Tuesday, which he carefully concealed, is now known to have been a terrible defeat for the Spanish troops. The insurgents made the Spaniaras retreat in three successive charges and General Weyler fled igno- miniously from the battletield and en- tered Havana. Twelve high Spanish of- ficers, besides many hundreds of soldiers, were killed. The town of Guantanamo, Santiago de Cuba province, nas been taken by the in- surgents. Gereral Penguino Perez and all the officers of the garrison were made prisoners. The Cubans also secured a large lot of money. e Weyler Anxious to Get Home, NEW YORK, N. Y., Aug. 14 —The Her- ald’s Havana specialsays: Weyler cabled his resignation to Madrid last Thursday. Friday night, the correspondent says, Weyler received a reply telling him to re- main in Cuba as long as the present Min- istry should hold power. The correspond- ent adds that he saw the message. LOSS OF A FRENCH STEAMER. The Villa de Malaga Strikes the Rocks off Alderney [Island, Coast of Normandy. LONDON, Eng., Aug. 14.—News has been received of the loss of the French steamer Villa de Malags. The steamer was bound from Rouen and struck the rocks off Alderney Island, coastof Nor- mandy, France. Her captain and nine- teen members of the crew are reported missing. Sl S oy COLORADG’'S CARNIVAL. Elaborate Preparations for the Fifth Annual flower Show. COLORADO SPRINGS, Coro., Aug. 14. The recent destruction by fire of the Broadmoor Casino will not dim the gayeties of Colorado Springs’ fifth an- nual flower carnival, which ovens on Tuesday next. At a meeting to-day of the joint committees composing the car- nivel association the reporis presented indicated that the coming event will be the most elaborate and successful of any thus far held. General Otis, commanding the Depart- ment of Colorado, United States army, has ordered the entire garrison from Fort Logan camp at_Colorado Springs for the week, and the First Regiment of the National Guard will also go into camp with the regulars. The musical festival, masked ball and other events that have hitherto taken piace in the Casino will be held in the spacious Temple Theater. All the ralroads leading to Colorado Springs have made one-fare rates for the round trip, and an immense attendance of visitors from the outside is assured. o UMNDERSELLING THE ENGLISH, Btcel-Rail Orders Being Placed in This Country by India. LONDON, ExG.. Ang. 14.—The Iron- wmonger has been investigating the recent underbidding of English steel-rail makers by American manufacturers, The East Indis Company invited tenders for 7544 tons of rails. English rails were offered &t an average of $27 50. American quota- tions, understood to come from the Mary- land Bteel Company, were $23 50, delivered at Calcutta. The tender was accepted, to- gether with the tender for accessories, which wasalso lower. i The Secretary of State for India says that further orders for rails for India have, been plcced in the States. The Bengal and Ragpur Railroad Company recently accepreu 2000 tons from an American firm at $:3, compared with $27 25, which was the British bid. Lord George Hamilton adds that the quality of the material will be tested before its acceptance by the official sent to the States. Seu e el o Has Canadian Reciprosiy. OTTAWA, OsT., Aug. 14 —The Govern- ment has advised all Canadian collectors of customs to give France the benefit of the preferential clause of the tariff. This makes three countries—France, Belgium and Germany—who are now enjoying the benefits of the reciprocal arrangement. OF INTEREST 10 THE COAST. Secretary Gage Will Soon Take Up the Appointment of a Drug Inspector. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 14.—Secre- tary Gage said to THE CALL correspondent to-day that he would take up the matter of appointing a drug inspec:or at Ban Francisco in aday or two. The papers will then be sent to the President for his action. There is no doubt that Dr. Tufts of Sacramento will be appointed to suc- ceed Kern, although there are a dozen candidates. The Iatest is Charles A. Sei- fert of Oakland, who filed his formal ap- plication at the Treasury Department to- day. Applicants for promotion and rein- slatement in the classified service are learning to their great dissatisfaction that President McKinley’s recent order abso- lutely prohibits the making of vacancies except under charges formulated and sub- mitted to the party destined for removal. A number of former employes in high grades who have received assurances that vacancies would be made for them in their old positions have given up the strugele and left for home. One of these, who served as chief clerk in a department under four administrations and who had confidently anticipated restoration, was informed yesterday by a Cabinet officer that the interpretation placed upon the President’s order made it impossible tore- move or displace an employe except for cause which would stand the test of the courts. “The order,”’ says this official, “is ex- plicit, and mesns what it says. It builds a8 Chinese wall around the departments through which no breach can be made. The ouly exit for employes through which vacancies can be made is regularly formu- lated charges based upon inefficiency or dishonesty, or a cause which would be operative in business Iife in relieving a clerk of his position. The old system of { dispensing with the services of an em- ploye on the mere statement thatsuch severance of relations was ordered for the good of the service has gone, never to re- turn, except through subsequent modifica- tions of the President’s order. These are not likely to occur during the present administration. President McKinley has let it be known that he expects the order to be rigidly adhered to, and it will cer- tainly pe carried into_effect in accordance with his Intention. Wuile the adminis- tration has safeguarded theretention in office of faithful and eflicient clerks, it proposes to apply the ordinary rules of business management to employes in the various departments and to insist upon efficiency in the different grades.” Senator Morgan bas arranged his itin- erary for his western trip. He will arrive in San Francisco August 26 and will sail for Honolulu Beptember 2. Lieutenant Waldemar D. Rose has been ordered from the Monocacy to the York- town, which will arrive at Mare Isiand November 15.

C., Aug. 14.— Wreck- ers placed a beam 20 feetlongand 10inches square on the Baltimore and Ohio road, fifteen miles from here, Wednesday night, and a crowded excursion train from Bay Ridge, going sixty miles an hour, struck it. The engine went up in the air and the great beam lodged beiween the driving- wheels, The engineer stuck -to his post, and in putting on the airbrakes brought the train to & stop so suddenly that the passengers were hurled from their seats. 1t is considered marvelous that the train did not leave the track, but an examina. tion found no damage. It is believed it was the intention to wreck the Pittsburg express, which is due about that time and carries large sums of express money. et To Supply Armor. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 14—The Union Iron Works of 8an Francisco has accepted the Navy Department’s terms for tbe diagonal armor for the bulkheads of the battle-ship Wisconsin, now under construction at their shipyard. The ar- rangements for the supply of this struc- tural armor were made recently with the Cramps in the case of the Alabama, being at the rate oi $300 a tonm, which is the maximum rate allowed by law. Nothing as yet has been heard from the Newport News Company with regard to supplying diagonal armor for the battle-ship con- struction at the yard. e Yellowstone Stage Kobbed. WASHINGTON, D. C., Auz. 14.—The Interior Department received this after- noon a teiegram from Colonel Young of Yelilowstone, Wyo., saying: The tirans- portation stage was robbed by two men this morning. Five hundred dollars was taken. He asked authority to offer a re- ward for their capture. Soldiers are in hot pursuit. LI Ay Missionaries Will Be Safe. WASHINGTON, D.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 14—Wil- liam Dustin of Quincy, IIL, was sworn in as Surveyor-General of Alaska Wedne: day. He will siari for his ‘new post soon as he receives instructions, and will remain during the winter. ~ DEPOTIES ST0P THE MARCHING Strikers Come to a Halt Until Court Meets Monday. Three Hundred Familles Sald to Be in Want in Moon Run District. Copy of Judge Jackson’s Famous Injunction—Ratchford Satisfled With the Outlook. PITTSBURG, Pa., Aug. 14—Despite the orders of the miners’ officials the campers at Sandy Creek and Turtle Creek attempted to march on the mines this morning, but the deputies were alert and the marchers were forced to break ranks and return to their camps. There was the same show of resistance by the marchers at Sandy Creek as was made at Pium Creek, only of a milder de- gree. They began their march at 3:30, an hour and a half earlier, to outwit the dep- uties, but the strikers were met by twenty- six deputies and ordered to halt, The In- junction was then read to them and they were ordered back to camp. They resisted at first, but when the deputies pressed for- ward the strikers broke ranks and re- turned to their quarters. As a resultof this twenty-two diggers went into the mine. At Turtle Creek the men had just formed on the road when the deputies appeared. After a short parley the strikers withdrew. The output of the mines shows an in- crease, At Plum Creek the situation is fayorable to the company, so far as operating the mine is concerned. There was no march- ing, as thestrikers deciaed to obey Dolan’s order to discontinue the marching until after the injuncilon proceedings next Monday. All was quiet during the night. There were 238 men in the mine to-day, & gain of 35, Trte strikers decided to go about the pits in groups of from two to four men, but this Sheriff Lowry will not permit. This morning Chief Deputy Richards, Superintendent de Armitt and two depu- ties went to Clarksyille on a scouting tour. They found several small bodies of men on the road. They were stopped, and after the injunction had been read they were ordered to dispsrse. The men invariably obeyed the order. The object of the trip, it is said, was to secure names for the purpose of entering proceedings | a'plecs of wood and struck Mrs. Heath- | cock on the head. She fell unconscious. for contempt of court. Inthe Moon Run district 300 families are said to be in want. said to prevail. A fund for the distressed has been started. About forty Italians returned to work at the Oak Hill mine to- day under guard of deputies. Italians carried knives, and as they marched to the train they kept close to the deputies, but no attempt was made to in- terfere with them. Here is a copy of the famous injunction granted by Judge Jackson in the Federal court against Eugene V. Debs and his associates upon the complaint of the Monongah Coal and Coke Company. It will be seen that the scope of the order has been very much misunderstood, owing to the omission from the various sum- maries telegranhed to the newspapers of the important qualifying expressions *‘un- lawtully” and ‘‘upon the oroperty of the company”’: IN EQUITY. James Sloan Jr., complainant, vs. Eugene V. Debbs et al., defendants. On this, the 4th day of August, 1897, the complainant in this action, by A. B. Fleming, his counsel, presented to the undersigned, one of the Judges of the Circuit Court of the United States for the District of West Virginia, his bill of complaint alleging, amoug other things, that the defendant, in conjunction with other defendants in the bill named, were conspiring together to interfere with tne operating and conducting of the coal mines operated by the Monongah Coal and Coke Company, and by such interference prevent- ing the employes of the Monongah Coal and Coke Company from mining and pro- ducing coal in and from the said mines; and that unless the court granted an immediate restraining order preventing thein from interfering with the employes of the owners of sald mines, there was great danger of irremediable injury, damage and loss to the owners of said mines. Upon consideration whereof the bill is or- dered to be filed and process issued thereon, and a lemporary resiraining order {s allowed, restraining and inhibiting the defendants and all others associated or counnected with them from in any wise interfering with the management, operation or conduciing of said mines by their owners or those operating them, either by menaces, threats or any char- acter of intimidation used to provent the em- ployes of said mines from going to or from said mines, or from engaging in the husiness of miving in said mines. And the defendants are further restrained from entering upon the property of the own. ers of the said Monongah Coal and Coke Com- pany for the purpose of interiering with the employes of said company, either by intimida- 101 or the holding of etther public or private assemblages upon said property, or in any ‘wise molesting, interfering with or intimidat- ing the employes of the said Monongah Coal and Coke Company so a8 to iuduce them to abandon their work in said mines. The purpose and object of this restraining order is to prevent all unlawlul combinations #nd conspiracies and to restrain all tne de- fendants engaged in the promotion of such unlawfuk combinations and conspiracies from entering upon the property of the Monongah Coal and Coke Company described in this order, and from in any wise interfering with the employes of said company in their mining operations, either within the mines or in pass- ing from their homes to the mines and upon their return to iheir homes, and from unlaw- fully inciting persons who are engaged in working the mines from ceasing to work in the mines or 1n any wise advising such acts as may result in violations and destruction of the rights of the plaintiff in this property. The motion for rmanent injuncdon is set down for hearing at the United States courtroom at_Wheeling on the 20th day of Beptember, 1897. This injuuction is not to take effect until the plaintiff, or some responsible person for him, shall enter inio bond in thesum of $5000, conditioned to pay all such costs &nd dam- ages that will accrue to the defendants by reason of the plaintiff suing out this injunc- tion. Notwithstanding the injunctions se- cured by the Buenola Coal Company the strikers continue to march. This morn- ing the deputies arrested eighteen men and brought them to -Pittsburg. They were placed in jail on a charge of dis- orderly conduct. 3 The injurction case against the Buenola miners will be heard before Judge Cotlier of the County Court and the decision re- served. The Judge said he wanted to do justice to both sides and before rendering a decision he desired to carefully examine the testimony. Pending his degision the preliminary injunction against the mirers was continued. President Ratchford of the United Mine ‘Workers, in a statement to-night deciares he is well satisfied with the strike’s pres- ent condition. He says the miners are determined not to resume work until all the operators agree to satisfactory terms. Bheriff Lowry’s interpretation of the latest injunction was effective in prevent- ing organized marches on De Armitt's minere. As a result to-day many strikers resumed work, and many operators ex- pect a stampede of miners to resume work at Bandy Creek on Monday if the conrt makes the injunction permanent.

S A4 SUPERINIENDENT BEATEN. 4n Unpopular Boss Houghly Handled by New Strikers. HAZELTON, Pa.; Aug. 14 —Thedrivers and miners empioyed at the Hazel Brook Colliery 5 struck this morning for an ad- vance of wages. Some of the driversare Amnericans and others are Hungarians and Italians, They have been getting from $1to $135 per day. They claim they have to work one hour per day without pa{, and for this want remuneration. wo drivers lef the strikers’ ranks and Were going to the strippings, when about thirty strikers met them and tried to per- suade them to come back. Superintend- ent Jones pnt in an appearance. Jones was knocked down and kicked. . Levi Watis, a carpenter who came to his aid, wasstruck on the heaa with a rock and severely injured. The arrival of a num- ber of English-speaking miners probably saved the superintendent from a serious flogging, as he is unpopular with the men. ‘Lhe coal and iron police were called from this city, but before their arrival the men dispersed quietly, and no further troubie has developed. IN KGINIA, Operators Are Becoming Alarmed at the Spread of the Strike. CLEVELAND, OmIo, Ang. 14.—A special from Wheeling, W. Va., to thePlain-Dealer says: “The failure of the operators in the Fairmont region to call the bluff of the National leaders by serving Judge Jack- son’s injunction, which was plainly vio- lated resterday, throws the strige in that region into about the shape it was a week ago, excopt that the strikers are gaining a little daily. The Monongah union, too, has 707 members, a growth of fifty this week. Other minesare losing the workers slowly and the strike is gaining in propor- tion. Itisargued that since the injunc- tion -was not served on the leaders the operators will hardly try serving it on subordinate agitators and miners. Reyports from reliable and disinterested sources in the Kanawah Vallev do not agree with those given by Fred Dilcher to the Associated Press, aithough it is ad- mitted by many that the strikers are mak- ing gains, There are still twenty mines at work and 20,000 miners. It is reportcd that the Norfolk and Western will tacked by the organizers again on Monday. The Wheeling district is now entirely c'osed. A mass-meeting will be held at Martins Ferry this afternoon to discuss the closing of the last two mill mines in the Eastern Ohio region. WEST PSOMPTLY PUT TO GEATH.
