The Prince has made his remaining in office for anot contingent upon two things, the presenta- tion to the Reichstag of the military trial reform biii and no new taxes for purposes of larger naval appropriations. The bill for the unification of the military penal code 1s still hanging fire, in spite of tbe Chancellor’'s declarstion in the Reichstag in 1895 that he w 1 stand or fall with the measure, and the Emperor’s strong objection to pubiication in military trials. As to new taxes for increasing the strength of the fizet, the North German Gazzette points out that it is sufficient that the Government and all the Conservative newspapers are dwelling upon the abso- 1 The Post affirms that beer will be taxed higher and that the import duty on cereals will be e nocessily tor such taxes, raised to 50 marks per ton, which, to- gether, would yield the Government an extra re e of at least 50,000,000 marks. The Volks Zsitung says ihat the Chan- ceilor this week offered to resign for the fourth time and that the Chancellorship crisis is now in an acute state. The Colozne Gazette corroborates this and add«: “It is certain that if Prince Hohenlons is in office at the opening of the Reichstag and has to confess his in- | once vote want of confidence in the Government. An agreement to this effect was made during the presei:t week by the leaders of the part.es constituting the ma- jor The Frankfurier Zeitung asserts posi- tively tnat no understanding has been reached with the Emperor regarding the military reform bill, and it is also Jsaid that his Majesty nhas been trving for months to find a suitable successor to Prince Hobenlobe. Itappears, however, that all his attempts in this direction, es- pecially among the Princes of reigning houses and men of rank similar with Prince Hohenlohe, have been fruitless, Prince Bismarck appealed to to express himself on the sub- ject ot the Government’s naval plans, but the only opinion which he has vouch- safed was the statement which he made on October 4 in the course of an interwiew with a representative of the Schlesische Zsitung that he approved the strengthen- ing of the navy by an increase in the number of cruisers and by a replacement of obsolete battle-ships, but as depre- cating a course caiculated to alarm the taxpayers by what the Prince termed & *‘gigant Leme.'” The Social'sts’ convention, just ended at Hamburg, was a most important gath- J P ering. There were over 200 delezates present and they represented 2,250,000 | votes. The proceedings have been widely eriticized and the Conservative press claims that now the Socialists remain y within their legal rights they / bave vecome much more dangerous. The Hamburger Nachrichten, in an eoi- | wvm], urzes the adoption of violent ‘measures 10 suppress socialism. It advo- \ cutes the abroga on of the general frane ! ‘chise at Reich brst meaus urtailing the political in- fluences of the Socialists d conciudes: “If they should then try to reach their aims by illegal w the opportunity wou!d not be wholly undesirable, as it wou'd offer a shorter mode of warfare against them.” Orn the other hand, the Libera! press claims that the convention has shown the Socialists to be rapidly becoming purely a radical reform party. The Agrarian newspapers continue to Cemand vV gorous messures of retaliation against the United States on account of tue passage of the Dingley bili, tut the majority of the press is losing interest in the matter. @hes Government has asked the advice cf the Commercial Chamteras 1o whether a ireight reductio on the railrozds in t1e ! case of suzar for export wouid be benefi- .

LONDON, Exa., Oct. 9.—The difficulties | in West Africa between the Brit siand French which were foreshadowed in dis- patches to the Associatea Press on Octo- ber 2 are assuming the form of a French exnedition, consisting of 500 soldiers and 2000 carriers, which has started from Porto Novo, on the coast of Dahomey, for Mikki, whence it proceeds to the Hinter- land of Lapos, according to reports, but it | is said that this movement is really to re- | the French troops which are I alrsady oceuvying Mikki, and does not augur well for a smooth settlement of the disputes, among which is the question of | the ownership of Mikki, and it is possible | the diplomatists will awake to find them- | celves saved the trouble of the delimita- | tions negotiations by serious events on the | spot, for it is known thut the British colonial authoritres are taking active steps to prevent the French force from en- | croaching uroa British territory. Fur- ther trouble may be added to the situa- tion by the fact that the French officials | are said to have pressed natives of Lagos | | and their canoes into the service of the expedition. i As Lagos is a British colony this action | upon the part of the French is not iikely | 10 pass without strong protests at least. Thus far, the Marguis of Salisbery, or | | Mr. Cnamberlain, the Secretary of State | for the Colonjes, who is generally credited | with being the power behind the throne | at the present moment, has not shown a sign of yielding an iota of the British claims in the Hinterland, and the authori- | ties at Lagos have been preparing for some time past to circumvent the French plana. | They have already sent numerous re. enforcements of troons and runboats t the front, and on Friday they ordered | Captain Frederick Lugart, a thoroughly | experienced officer of the Royal Niger Company. who has served in the Afphan war, the Soudan campaign and the Bur-| mese expedition, in addition to seeing much service in Afiien, 10 zo to the front All the st-amers fgom Liverpool to the | west coast of Africa are taking officers, | troops and large quantities of munitionslol war.

Indeed, signs voint to the possible depo-ition of the Kuedive of Egypt, whose attitude Iately has not been ns snbmissive as the British agent and Minister Plenipo en- tiary, Lord Cromer, desires, in which event a British protectorate will inevita- bly foliow.

The British Government is also con- sidering the adoption of an infernal bullet invented in Birmingham. This bullet is made of lead and instead of being conical the top is level and hasa cuplike cavity.

MADRID, €paix, Oct. 9.—The Cabinet which the decision previous!y arrived at reparding the recall from Cuba of Captain- | General Weyler was confirmed. El Heraldo makes the announcement that the captain-general of Porto Rico will be appointed aciing Governor of Cuba pending the arrival of Marshal Blanco. In reply to an inquiry by Premier Sa- easta, Captain-General Weyler has cabled the following statement to the Govern- ment: “The principles which constitute my character, as well as my well-known miii- | tary history, are a strong guarantee tha I have never created, nor will I ever cre- | ate any ditliculties for the constitutional government, be that whatever it may, “I bave always been and in every case shall be the first man to accept, respect | and obey and eniorce the Government’s ordeis.

WEYLER In replying to a number of Cuban Sena- torswho hud offered their support to the Government Premier Sagasta said that the Government wonld devote itself before a:l else to the pacification of Cuba and would then introduce in the island a model ad- | winistration. | The Government, the Premier added, | considered that the pacification of Cuba | would facilitate the restoration of peace in the Philippine I<lands, where the situa- | tion now i« serious. | The Imparcial says the Spanish Gov- ernment will take rapid measures on sc- count of the spread of the rebellion in the nilippine Islands. It is said General Rivera, the former Captain-General of Madrid, who succeeded General Polavieja in Murch last as Governor of the Philip- pines, has resigned. HAVANA, Cusa. Oct. 9.—Following the appointment oif Marshal Blanco to suc- ceed Captain-General Weyler, the Maur- merola, Civil Governor ot Ha- and the other provincial governors have tendered their resienations. LONDON, Ex6, Oct. 9.—An American diplomat, who has just arrived here from Madrid, says the condition of Spain is even worse than the corresnondents de- pict. Whoever is sent tn Cuba, he adds, will attempt to buy off the insurgent lenders. The diplomat further says that the Spanish Government is so hard presseu for money that it is attem pting to sell all the public lands and buiidings that can possibly be spared. Not only have the ~o'diers been unpaid since last March, but the pension lists are in arrears, o WEYLER NOT GUILTY. Evangelina Cisneros Released by a Newspaper Man Who Went to Cuba for the Purpose. KEY WEST, Fra., Oct. 9.—Weyler did not have a hand in the liveration of Evan- gelina Cossio v Cisneros. She was re- leased from prison bv the correspondent of a New York newspaper. The plot was hatched close to the palace in Havana and patriotic Cubans assisted in the jail breaking. The correspondent was sent from New York 10 Cuba for the express purpose of liberating Miss Cossio y Cisneros. He landed last September in Cienfuegos and after picking up two men who could be trusted he went to Havana and plannea the jail delivery. The sweets sent to Miss Cisneros were drugged. She was generous with them, and while the inmates of the prison siept two bars were removed and the Cuban girl liberated. Her whereabouts is not known 1o any person outside of the plotters. The correspondent says: *“I have broken the bars of Rocojidas and have set iree the teautiful captive of the monster Wevler, restoring ber to her friends and relatives and doiug by strength, skill and strategy what conld not be accomplished by petition and the urgent request of the Pope. 'pve\'eyler could blind the Qaeen of Spain as to the real character of Evangelina, but covld not build a jail strong enough .o hold her.” The plot had been hatched right in the heart of Havana, a desperate plot, as shown by the revolver found on tne roof of the house through which t escape was effected, and as a result of this plot, putinto effect under the very nose of the Spanish guards, Evangelina is free. How was it done? How could it have been done? It 1s conceded by the officials to have been a daring coup. No one knows where Evangelina is now, nor can knew. As to the story of the rescue the corre- spondent says: *I cime here three weeks ago, having been told by the editor to go to Cuba and rescue from her prison Miss Cisneros, ntece of the former Pres:dent of the Cuban republic. 1 arrived at Cienfue- #os late in September, and telegraphed te a man in whom had implicit confidence at Santiago de Cuba to meet me in Hsvana. I then;wentto Santa Clara, where I got a second _trusted man. Then I went back to Havana. liere 1 remained in almost absolute concealment, %0 as to avoid the spies that dog oae's footsteps wherever one gzoes, and make 1t impossible to do any work of this kind. Both the men who ac- companied me, Hernandez and Mallory, pursued the same coure and remained quiet until all the plans had been com- plered. “From the fact that Miss Evangeline wa« incommaunicado the attempt to rescue her seemed ar first sight almost out of the question.

For a uime Pal-| meroia was like a crazy man. He burst iito a torrent of abuse against the alcalde and every one connected with the prison, and threatening them all with Chafarinas. Finailv it was decided to make the best of i the affair, and say that she had been set atliterty by the Spanish Government. The theory that Evangeiina had es- caped to Key West in a small boa! at once occurred to the people at the palace, and tiis Nueva Espana, the swiftest cruiser at the isiand, cleared for Key West and started on a search for the fugitives. Every tugboat that could be sparei and every small craft and gunboat took part in the search, but without avail. BARRIOS DGWNFALL CERTAIN, Jose Leon Castillo Invades Guatemala and Captures the Cities of Juti- apa and Cuajiniquilapa. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 9.—A special from Santa Ana, Salvador, to the Herald says: Just at the moment when it seemea certain that Dictator Barrios of Guate- mala would triumph over his enemies and end the rebellicn there, news comes | which snows decided!y unexpected re- | verses for the Government forces. Now 1t is predicted on all sides that the Barrios Government will certainly fall within a short time, This sudden change in the aspect of the situation is due largely to the fact that Jose Leon Castilio, who wa« one of the candidates for President of Guatemala, has contrived, despite the efforts of the Salvadorean Government, to invade Gua- temala from Salvador with a large force and capture the cities of Jutiapa and Cuajinigailapa. According to reports received here Cas- tillo met with little resistance from the forces guarding the cities, and is now in undisputed possession. He was accom- panied by Rosando Santa Cruz and Pedro Barillas. These cilies are nearer to the capital of Guatemala than any of the oth- ers ever held by the rebels, and it is be- lieved the insurcents will soon move against the City of Guatemala.

Beitween 6 ana 7 o’clock ou that | day the snift bosses in block 13 discover«d a portion of the undereround workings to | be aflame and gave the alarm. The un- derground driver was full of smoke, and for a long time the blaze could not be lo- cated. Volunteers were called for from the sur- face, and 1n charge of mine officers they went below, expending all their energies to get at the seat of the fire. Bags of sand, together with canvasand timber, were sent down several shafts to form blockades and confine the flames. The men were, after a hard atruggle, driven back by the flames, and when the Mioweralelt the fire was s:i!l raging. Fifty men were overcome by smoke and heat, three succumbing to injuries re- ceived. The federation convention was meet- | ing at Sydnay when the steamer left.
