Uncle Sam Gives King Alfonso Notice That the Cuban Struggle Has Gone Far Enough. MADRID, Spain, July 17.—A dispatch from the Spanish Minister at Washington has been received. It relates to the instructions given to Woodford by Sherman and which purport to be that the Cuban war has continued long enough; that the United States cannot consent to an indefinite prolongation of the struggle, and consequently a short space of time is designated within which Spain must end the war or the United States will interfere. In the meanwhile Spain will be urged to discontinue the method of warfare Weyler is practicing, as the United States cannot permit a civilized country almost within sight of her coasts to be longer the theater of a war of extermination. The news fell like a bombshell among the Ministers. The dispatch was received shortly after they had held a cabinet council. Premier Canovas and the Duke of Tetuan immediately returned to the palace and had a long conference with the Queen. Then Canovas and Tetuan went to see General Azcarraga. They were with him several hours. Woodford is expected to arrive here August 20, and will present his credentials about September 1. The Herald says the reason Woodford will stop in London and Paris before coming to Madrid is that he has been ordered to see the American representatives in those cities and instruct them to invite the Governments of England and France to co-operate with the United States in demanding from Spain the recognition of the claims for damages to foreign property in Cuba. The aggregate amount of claims filed by American, French and British citizens with the State Department here is nearly $100,000. All this news has caused a new outburst of feeling against the United States, whose conduct is considered emphatically in favor of the insurgents. The Herald and other newspapers declare the recent acquittal of the Dauntless filibusters was decreed upon instructions from Washington. According to a statement of the War Department, the loss to the Spanish army in Cuba from the beginning of the war is 22,792 dead, and 11,434 soldiers have Hotel Reception FULLERTON, CAI. C. B.

Thirty-eight votes were cast in the Senate on Wednesday for the Dingley tariff bill and 28 votes were cast against it. Sixteen Senators were paired. Seven Senators, all of them Populists or silverites, did not vote. Actually, therefore, the vote on the Tariff bill in the Senate was as follows. For... 46 Against... 36 Not voting... 7 Vacancy... 1 Total... 90 Forty-six is a majority of the Senate. This is how the States which supported and the States which opposed the Tariff bill stood in respect to the total vote at last year's election: FOR. AGAINST. Connecticut... 174,320 Alabama... 195,427 Illinois... 1,090,869 Arkansas... 149,397 Iowa... 521,547 Delaware... 31,460 Maine... 118,593 Florida... 46,461 Massachusetts... 401,568 Georgia... 183,061 Michigan... 544,492 Mississippi... 70,566 Minnesota... 341,637 Missouri... 674,019 Montana... 53,217 South Carolina... 68,967 New Hampshire... 83,670 South Dakota... 82,950 Ohio... 1,014,292 Tennessee... 321,998 Oregon... 97,827 Texas... 544,786 Pennsylvania... 1,194,255 Utah... 96,124 Rhode Island... 53,785 Virginia... 294,664 Vermont... 63,828 Wyoming... 20,863 Total... 2,738,965 Total... 5,774,343 With Senator Murphy paired against the bill, Senator Platt cast the vote of the Empire State in its favor. With New York's vote added, the States supporting in the Senate, the Tariff bill represent a total vote of 7,320,000 against a total vote cast at last year's election of 2,700,000 in States recorded in opposition. Such in detail is the analysis of the vote, and it is to be added in addition that of the twenty-four Senators having the longest terms to serve, seventeen were recorded in favor of the bill and only seven against it.[N.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 15.—A story rivalling in intensity of interest that told of the fabulous wealth of Monte Cristo was related by the passengers of the little steamer Excelsior, which has just arrived from St. Michael's, Alaska. Millions upon millions of virgin gold, according to the story, await the fortunate miner who has the hardihood and courage to penetrate into the unknown depths of the Yukon district. There was tangible evidence on the little steamer of the truth of the story told by the travelers, for in the cabin were scores of sacks filled to the very mouth with "dust" taken from the placers of the far frozen north. The amount brought in is variously estimated at $50,000 to $150,000. There came in on the Excelsior some forty people, among them some women, from what is known as the Clonkyke district, though only fifteen of these had been actually engaged in mining. There were among them men who had been for more than ten years facing the dangers and hardships of the frozen blackbird. The crow blackbird lives in trees and the red-wing blackbird in reeds and low bushes. They are all insectivorous. The oriole lives on caterpillars and wasps which thrive among the trees, and the meadow lark feeds on grasshoppers and other ground insects. After a careful consideration of their food the department of agriculture comes to the conclusion that "one can hardly fail to be impressed with the fact that these birds must be eminently useful to the farmer." Insects constitute a large percentage of the food of the meadow lark. The bulk of its food is grasshoppers. The number eaten by this bird is so enormous as to entitle the meadow lark to rank among the most efficient of our native birds as a grasshopper destroyer. Some of the most injurious beetles also form a considerable percentage of the stomach contents while the useful specie do not appear so often as might be expected from the terrestrial habits of the meadow lark. This birds also destroys ants, bugs, beetle larvae and caterpillars. The true oriole is not less of a benefit to man from an economic point of view. The oriole also eats some corn, peas and small fruits, but in such small quantities that the agricultural department feels that this single fault of the oriole is of no economic significance. The meadow lark ranges all the open country of the United States, not excepting the desert areas. It is as much at home in the savannahs of the south as on the prairies of the west. It usually builds near a water course, for it drinks heartily and bathes often. Its nest is arched over with twigs as a protection to the eggs and female bird. Two hundred and thirty-eight stomachs were examined of meadow larks collected from all the States and at all seasons. The result is that 75 per cent of the food of this bird for the entire year was found to consist of insects. CALIFORNIA FRUIT FOR LONDON. First Shipment of the Season—Plums, Prunes and Peaches. SNAP SHOTS AT THE NEW The powers have fixed the indemnity to be paid to Turkey by Greece at £4,000,000, and have accepted a co-promise giving Turkey a more liberal line of frontier. Turkey and Greece have been left to settle the question of capitulation between them. Jim O'Brien of San Francisco, who known in Democratic political circles and a close friend of Lieutenant-Governor Jeter, has been looking over those who know in the interests of Jeter gubernatorial boom. O'Brien has been closeted with John W. Mitchell, but it is said Mitchell's influence is promised to Alford. The Los Angeles oil market is being demoralized and prices are going down. This is said to be a result of the fight between the Standard Oil Company and the Puente Oil Company. The Standard Oil people made an attempt to buy the Puente Company plant, but failed, and thus far the Puente people have met every cut. For some days Stockton saloon and cigar men have been worked by a couple of smooth manipulators of the nickel-in-the-slot machines, who used fine wire by which they were able turn the cards until a straight flush appeared. This called for champagne and boxes of cigars, which they disposed of at half price in some other part of town. They passed themselves off as newspaper reporters. The total shipments of oranges from Southern California for the season ending June 30th, according to the complete railroad reports, amounted to 7340 carloads. This does not include the shipments made from San Diego Santa Barbara and other ports of steamers, no record of such shipments being kept at the Los Angeles headquarters. The Supervisors of San Bernardino county acting as a Board of Equalization raised the assessment of the Chima-beet factory $100,000. The former variation of the building was $20,000, but it was raised to $35,000, and the main chinery was raised from $140,695. END THE WAR.

There were among them men who had been for more than ten years facing the dangers and hardships of the frozen north in the hope of making a rich find, but who signally failed.

The new El Dorado lies just across the Alaskan boundary in British territory. It is of recent discovery, but already there are at least 3000 people on the ground and more flocking in that direction as fast as transportation can be secured. The discovery of the Clondyke regions presents a story that is uniquely interesting. Around Forty-mile creek on the Yukon is a tribe of Indians known as the Stickers, and with them is a man who years ago was known as George Cormack, but who is now known as "Stick George." In September last, at the head of a party of Indians, he left his hut near Forty-mile camp and started in a southerly direction, saying that he intended to find a new gold field before his return. He came back two weeks later and startled the miners with the announcement that forty miles away there was gold to be found in plenty. The streams abounded with yellow metal and all that was needed was for somebody to pick it up. Many persons flocked to the place and in time the word reached Forty-mile camp that untold riches could be found along the bottom of Bonanza creek and its tributaries. Men who failed at the former camp immediately packed up their belongings and set out for the new fields. It was a hard and trying journey, but that was nothing with the promise of millions at the end of the route. FLAG USED FOR A SCARECROW. So the Neighbors Say, but Boyle Main-tains That It's an Exhibition of Patriotism. PLAINFIELD, N. J., July 19.—The farmers who live near New Market, in Middlesex county, are in a state of patriotic heat over the conduct of Thomas Boyle, who, they say, is using the Stars and Stripes for a scandalous purpose. From the top of a long pole planted in the center of Boyle's cornfield, in the plain sight of the hundreds of people who traverse the macadamized county road, waves an American flag whenever a breeze blows over Piscataway township through the valley that winds around from the Watchung Mountains two miles away. Some of the people who live in that vicinity say that the fact of Boyle having the flag in such a position, surrounded by a number of straw men, which serve to scare off flocks of crows that now and then descend on the corn field, is a rank insult to his country. The conviction that Boyle put the flag there to assist the rag dummies to frighten off the crows has ranked in their minds to such a degree that There was tangible evidence on the little steamer of the truth of the story told by the travelers, for in the cabin were scores of sacks filled to the very mouth with "dust" taken from the placers of the far frozen north.

The Agricultural Department Recommends the Protection of These Birds. WASHINGTON, July 16.—The Agricultural department believes that the oriole is an American bird which should be encouraged, and is preparing a pamphlet for circulation among the agriculturists of the United States containing statements of the helpfulness of this bird to agriculture and suggestions as to ways of encouragement. F. E. L. Beale, assistant ornithologist of the department of agriculture, has the matter in charge. The oriole family includes the true orioles, the blackbirds and the meadow larks. The members of this family differ widely in their habits. The true oriole is "arboreal," that is, it hangs its nest in inaccessible parts of tall trees. The meadow lark is terrestrial, that is, it builds its nest on the ground or even in holes in the ground. Between this diversity of habit is the munitions of war, as the island is supposed to be rich in gold, silver and copper. The island is inhabited by about 200 Ceris Indians, who are not only very warlike, but said to be cannibals. It is not believed, however, that Grant's expedition landed, as there are no reports of collision at arms, and these savages usually come out in their canoes and receive the enemy before permitting them to land. They have no guns, but use poisoned arrows, according to the statement of an old seafaring man, who a few years ago, landed on the island with a force of men in search of gold. He states that the Ceris use arrows with obsidian points for the hunting of game, but that they are poisoned when turned on the enemy. They sometimes make raids into the interior and murder and rob Mexicans, taking the women to the island as captives for wives. These raids have caused the Mexican government to send several expeditions against the Ceris, but none of them have ever landed, or if they did, it is not known that they returned. The sailor who effected this landing was not permitted to go into the interior, but he believes that gold exists on the island from the fact that the native women wore ornaments of gold. He does not believe that they are cannibals, but is satisfied that they burn their victims. He won their favor by giving to them presents of red cloth and beads. The sailor states that Tiburon is the only island in the gulf that is inhabited. The Ceris live on game, fish and wild fruits, of which there is an abundance. Tiburon Island and Island de la Guarda (Guardian Angel) belong to Mexico, and are reached from Guaymas or Yuma by the Colorado river. A few year ago L. E. Robinson, a newspaper correspondent, visited Tiburon Island with a companion. It is believed he was burned. His companion is said to have escaped. Subsequently a scientist, with a photographer, visited the island. They have not since been heard of. Will you give up all that health means to you. If not, look out for impure blood.

"Our doctor remedy had failed, then we tried Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, which gave very speedy relief." For sale by P. A. Derge. W. O. Gilbert of Reno, Nev., is New York, and at last accounts has lost his hotel. He arrived in New York Thursday and spent the night at some hostelry; the name of which does not know. Gilbert never saw New York before Thursday night; when he arrived from West at the Grand Central depot, accompanied by a large roll of money; two valises and a bicycle. He was booked to sail for Europe on Saturday and intended to ride many hundred miles on his wheel. The cycle was left over night at the Grand Central depot while Mr. Gilbert and his valises went to the hotel. In the morning he gave his bicycle check on the porter so the wheel could be brought to the hotel, and went out for a walk. He admired the tall building; cable cars and everything he saw; and was perfectly happy until he started a return. Then he found that his hotel was gone. The police have tried to vain to find it for him, and Mr. Gilbert as a last resort has advertised for it. In the meantime he is staying at Renoir's Hotel, waiting for his missing baggage. Because she was tired of life and hated poverty, Violet Clowes, a girl 22 years, drowned herself near Cliff House at San Francisco on Wednesday morning. Before she jumped into the ocean she wrote a message on the sand: "Violet loves kindness, and she does not always get it this country," was what she traced. According to the story told by her friend, Violet Foster Clowes was a girl of good English family. She was an orphan with a brother and sister living in Philadelphia, and earned a livelihood by singing in a chorus. The elder sister came to California some four years ago when she was 18 years of age. She had no friends in California but received kindness at many hands. One wealthy woman in particular and several dramatic students had befriended the girl. In spite of that she sometimes went hungry because she was too proud to tell her woes and unable to get work. She went to the beach near Cliff House on the lake car and wandered about on the beach until almost daylight. The life saving station had been warned of the girl actions and a man was detailed on watch and prevent any attempt at suicide. The man watched her for hours but finally became cold and went back to the station for an overcoat. When he returned the girl had disappeared. Her body was subsequently found near the end of the Olympic Salt Water company's pier. She had removed some her clothing, filled it with sand and made a bag which she put around her neck thus keeping her head under water.

The order of the Police Commissioners of Kansas City, Kan., that women prisoners must work on the stone pile along with the men has caused a great commotion, and has not yet been put into effect. Perhaps it may never be.The Current Event Club, an organization of women, has expressed itself as immeasurably shocked,and has called an indignation meeting to protest against "the threatened disgrace and degradation of womanhood." The members threaten that the enforcement of the order means the retirement of the Police Commissioners from office at the first opportunity,and as women vote in Kansas municipal elections,the threat is regarded as not altogether an idle one and may have its desired effect.Their principal objection to the rock pile plan is that the order compels women to work without skirts and to wear overalls,and pro- supervisors of San Bernardino setting as a Board of Equalization the assessment of the Chinoory $100,000.

Glenn and Colus counties were originally organized into one irrigation district. The bonds issued to advance the work prescribed by the irrigation law forced many of the poorer people, it is said, to leave their homes, because of inability to satisfy the financial requirements of the act. The Supreme Court has decided this part of the law to be illegal, and the decision is the cause of the coming celebration. A romantic incident connected with the recent Christian Endeavor convention in San Francisco developed one day last week when Miss Mary B. Davis of Louisville, Ky., was wedded to George C. King of San Francisco at the Palace Hotel in the presence of a few mutual friends, most of whom were members of the Kentucky delegation. King was formerly a clerk in the employ of the uncle of his bride, but was sent out here as their agent after the parents of Miss Davis had discouraged his suit, and he had not seen the young lady for six years, when she surprised him by meeting him at the convention. While there had been no understanding between the young people prior to their meeting, no time was wasted after their reunion for after making up their minds they promptly completed arrangements for the wedding, which was celebrated forthwith. The omission of a hyphen in the present tariff bill would have meant a loss of $1,000,000 in the revenues of the government had this omission not been discovered by Treasury experts who are carefully going over the bill as finally passed by the Senate. The clause, as printed under the head "free list," reads: "53,912. Fruit plants, tropical and semi-tropical, for the purpose of propagation and cultivation." The omission of the hyphen between the words fruit and plants placed fruit on the free list, when, as a matter of fact, all kinds of fruit are suitable, the revenue from which annually amounts to more than $1,000,000. Under the construction of the United States courts in all disputed tariff duties the benefit of doubt has been given to the importers. The tariff conferences were advised of the discovery made and the omitted hyphen was inserted in its proper place. When the guards at the Folsom prison made their appearance in the dining-room from their sleeping quarters the other morning they all agreed the night had been the hottest they had ever experienced. They claimed to have perspired so much that their beds were sopping wet, and in consequence they were so weak they could drag themselves around. While they were complaining one of the attacks happened to place his hand on the steam register, used in the winter season for heating purposes, and found it was redhot. An immediate investigation followed and it was found that some practical joker among the convicts had turned on a full head of steam, and in consequence every heater in the guards' rooms had been running at full blast all night. Engineer Matterson, who is in charge of the powerhouse, was the greatest sufferer, as he had an electric fan so placed that it blew a blast of the doubly heated air over him all night. The joke produced great glee among the convicts and a corresponding amount of gloom among the guards. A novel case has developed at Lincoln, Neb., as the result of a broken engagement between two young persons, and embarrassing results are promised. The jilted lover says that he will have every one of the many costly presents which he had given to commotion, and has not yet been put into effect. Perhaps it may never be. The Current Event Club, an organization of women, has expressed itself as immeasurably shocked, and has called an indignation meeting to protest against "the threatened disgrace and degradation of womanhood." The members threaten that the enforcement of the order means the retirement of the Police Commissioners from office at the first opportunity, and as women vote in Kansas municipal elections, the threat is regarded as not altogether an idle one and may have its desired effect. Their principal objection to the rock pile plan is that the order compels women to work without skirts and to wear overalls, and provides that 'the first woman prisoner whose fines are not paid will go to the rock pile. John Newman, alias Frank Butler, convicted of the murder of Captain Lee Weller in the Blue Mountain mining district in November 1896, was hanged at Sydney, N. S. W., Thursday last. He broke down at last, the remarkable eticism which he had exhibited since his arrest in San Francisco last February giving away, and he confessed his guilt of this as well as of other shocking crimes. He admitted that his right name was John Newman and that he was born of a good family in Staffordshire, Eng., in 1858. He professed the profoundest penitence for his misdeeds and at last moment willingly received the religious consolation usually offered the condemned. The execution was affected without incident. Few spectators were permitted, those present being principally officers of the court and attendants directly concerned in carrying out the law's decree. The case excited intense interest throughout the colonies. John F. James and Henry Blake have returned to Benix, A.T., from the desert border, bringing a story of extreme suffering and of success in the discovery of the famous California mine, one of the most famous of the lost mines of the southwest. The mine lies south of Sentinel, a station on the Southern Pacific, distant about eighty miles and in a region that appears absolutely waterless. For ten days men and their burros were compelled to live by drinking the bitter juice of the cactus. Men were terribly broken up in health through their sufferings on the blazing desert. They could stay at the mine only a short time, but brought back samples of gold-speckled ore taken from the bottom of the shaft, where yet were the tools left by the miners of thirty years ago. They will outfit themselves and return well prepared as soon as they regain strength. H. M. Higgins, better known as "Bonnie Brae" Higgins, died last week at his home on Bonnie Brae ranch, ten miles east of San Diego. Thirty years ago Higgins was the most noted publisher of Chicago and the Northwest. He was the author of many noted songs, chief among which were "The Old Musician and His Harp" and "Hang Up the Baby's Stocking." These two ballads attained a popularity in this country and Canada that has seldom been surpassed, and the composer realized over $50,000 in royalties. In 1871 he left Chicago with a fortune of $100,000, and, coming to California, purchased and developed Bonnie Brae ranch, a magnificent property in Sweetwater Valley, and now containing the oldest citrus orchard in the country. Here he also originated and propagated the Bonnie Brae lemon, which has attained fame throughout the world. He was 77 years old, and was a pronounced spiritualist.

A novel case has developed at Lincoln, Neb., as the result of a broken engagement between two young persons, and embarrassing results are promised. The jilted lover says that he will have every one of the many costly presents which he had given the young woman during their two years' courtship. Among these presents are several pairs of jeweled garters, which she refuses to surrender. He threatens writs of replevin and expresses his determination to send an officer to search for the garters and other articles. These threats have caused an animated discussion in local society circles as to just how far the officer might be allowed to go in carrying on such a search. The affair all grew out of the engagement of Grace Oakley and Joseph Walsh. The published announcement was the first intimation to Harry Lansing, who had thought himself engaged to Miss Oakley, that the engagement between himself and the young woman was off. Through his father he made a demand for the presents he had given to Miss Oakley during the last two years, but he met with a positive refusal to produce them. The presents are valued by him at $2000. "I would rather see my daughter in her grave than contract such a marriage," said Ogden Goelet to a close friend in New York the other day, referring to the report that his daughter was engaged, or about to be betrothed, to the Duke of Manchester. The published announcement that an engagement had been arranged was denied the next day, but it still is subject of gossip. It is evident that, although the announcement was semi-official, Goelet did not know it was to be made. Goelet is very angry that such a report has been circulated by gossips and is especially angry that it was printed. His anger is not hard to understand. The young Duke has been wild and has given great trouble to his family and the estate trustees. The other night he dined with Mrs. Langtry and a very lively party at the Savoy. His financial affairs are in such disorder that only a short time ago he remarked to some one that he would have to marry an Astor or Vanderbilt or throw up the sponge. On one point every one is agreed, "The Old Musician and His Harp" and "Hang Up the Baby's Stocking." These two ballads attained a popularity in this country and Canada that has seldom been surpassed, and the composer realized over $50,000 in royalties. In 1871 he left Chicago with a fortune of $100,000, and, coming to California, purchased and developed Bonnie Brae ranch, a magnificent property in Sweet-water Valley, and now containing the oldest citrus orchard in the country. Here he also originated and propagated the Bonnie Brae lemon, which has attained fame throughout the world. He was 77 years old, and was a pronounced spiritualist. Leroy George, the Los Angeles snake charmer, has again been bitten by one of the venomous reptiles in handling which he daily risks his life. It is only a few weeks ago that he left the hospital after nearly dying from the sting of a rattler. After days of acute suffering he left the hospital and opened a cheap menagerie on Spring street, where for a time there was a constant stream of visitors, as many as 740 people in one day being admitted. When the attendance began to fall off George and his two partners, Jack Hendee and W.F. Ragan, decided to go to San Francisco. When everything was ready for their departure, the two hundred snakes being in good spirits, enjoying congenial hot weather, George decided to give them all a bath as a preliminary refreshment for the journey. The bath was to furnish food and drink as well as cleansing. He broke into a bowl of milk several raw eggs; then, getting into the den, he proceeded to immerse each snake in turn in the bowl, his theory being that each snake would swallow some of the mixture, which would furnish nutriment, while the liquid would soak his scales and keep him from starving on the journey. Most of the reptiles submitted to the bath, though with many manifestations of disapproval. One small rattler, with a will of his own, tried to crawl away, but the man pulled him back. The snake, which was the same one which bit him before, rattled, waved its head threateningly, then curled backward and buried its fangs in the man's right thumb. The man called for aid and Hendee lanced the thumb and sucked the poison from the wound. George meanwhile swallowing great draughts of whisky. His hand and arm swelled alarmingly, and George's screams brought a crowd to the door. Dr. Frazier was summoned from the County Hospital and treated the wound. That night George was unconscious from whisky and groaned with pain, but the symptoms have since been favorable for his recovery.
