That plaintiffs furnished all material and performed all labor required by the said contract to fully construct and complete the said water works improvements within the time and in the manner required, and plaintiffs thereby became entitled to receive of the defendant the said sum of $9389 in installments as in said contract provided.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.—The Journal of Commerce says that the present season in the Mediterranean lemon trade, which opened two weeks ago, has been a disappointment to the local importers. Receipts of foreign lemons up to date have not been half of those for the corresponding weeks of last year, while cargoes afloat at present are relatively smaller still. Nevertheless, prices are not only lower than those prevailing at this time a year ago, but ever since the opening of this season there has been a material decline. Cargoes sold this week bring from 50 cents to $1 a box less than the same brands realized at the first date. One of the principal reasons advanced for the present condition of the market is the increasing competition of California fruit, which this year has entered the markets in a quantity where it was almost unknown previously. It is the opinion of some that California fruit will eventually displace SNAP SHOTS AT THE Justice Field retired from preme Court on the 1st. Tormality, and the justice wentent.

"The Secretary of War has granted medal of honor to a Federal soldier in the affidavit of a Confederate, and is probably the first instance on record of this kind. The Federal soldier who received the medal was thomas I. Higgins, now of Hannibal, During the war he was the colorcarrier of the Ninety-ninth Illinois regiment, and was holding that position at the siege of Vicksburg. In an assault on May 22 1863, the Ninety-ninth Illinois was ordered to charge and not to look back. I was a member of the second Texas Regiment, and we confronted the charging Illisoans. We repulsed the Illinois regiment a short distance from the breastworks, and sent it back in confusion. Higgins, however, was literally obeying the orders. He never looked back. He never noticed the retreat of his regiment, but came bounding forward, his colors flying as well as a soldier over saw. When within forty yards of war works word was passed along the one not to shoot the brave soldier, and firing ceased. When Higgins saw the predicament he started to retreat with his colors, but we told him to come on or we would have to shoot him. Several men ran out and brought him within the breastworks. We kept him several days, during which time we learned to like and admire him. He was then paroled, was one of the men who witnessed the construction of the said pumping pit and proceeded to construct the same in all respects as called for by said plans and specifications, and plaintiffs allege that as the construction of said pumping pit progressed it became necessary that certain extra material should be furnished and that certain extra work should be done thereon, and defendant ordered old Gray Bros. & Ward to construct and put in, and they did construct and put in, a foundation and an extra bottom, and relined the said pit. That to furnish the material and to do the said extra work of constructing the said foundation were reasonably worth the sum of $125 25; that to construct the said extra bottom in the said pumping pit was reasonably worth the sum of $156 05, and it was reasonably worth to reline the said pumping pit $250, making a total of $531 25, which plaintiffs earned and which they became, and still are, entitled to demand and receive of the said defendant for and on account of the said extra work and material. In addition to the contract price of $9389 for the said work and in addition to the said above mentioned extra material and labor furnished by Gray Bros. & Ward, plaintiffs are entitled to the following credits for extra work and materials: To extra depth of wells. $51 20 To extra length of strainers. 64 70 2,171 lbs special hub and castings 65 20 5 lbs gate valves. 10 50 15 corporation cocks and lead connections. 37 50 Labor on city services. 3 50 1 6-lb swing check valve. 20 80 1 6-lb gate valve. 10 50 2 8-lb gate valves. 55 00 3539-lbs special flange and screw fittings used on connections at stations, at 60. 14 feet 8-lb pipe used at station, at 90c. 12 60 229 feet 6-lb pipe used at station, at 60c. 123 66 56 feet 5-lb pipe used at station, at 45c. 25 20 123 feet 4-lb pipe used at station, at 32c. 39 36 24 feet 3-lb pipe used at station. That by the terms of the said contract the defendant reserved the right to order any extra work to be performed and to require extra materials to be furnished in the progress of said work, and defendant agreed to pay for the same in the same manner as in said contract provided for the payment of work and materials required, by the said plans and specifications. That by paragraph III of said contract, it was provided that the said work should be performed under the personal supervision of plaintiffs and that in all cases sub-contractors should be considered as workmen employed by plaintiffs. That on the 27th day of April, 1897, plaintiffs entered into a written contract with Gray Bros. & Ward, under which the said Gray Bros. & Ward became sub-contractors under and subject to the contract hereinbefore mentioned between defendant and plaintiffs, and the said Gray Bros. & Ward agreed to build and construct the pumping pit called for by the plans and specifications aforesaid and to furnish the material and do the work therefor, and said Gray Bros. & Ward entered upon the construction of the said pumping pit and proceeded to construct the same in all respects as called for by said plans and specifications, and plaintiffs allege that as the construction of said pumping pit progressed it became necessary that certain extra material should be furnished and that certain extra work should be done thereon, and defendant ordered old Gray Bros. & Ward to construct and put in, and they did construct and put in, a foundation and an extra bottom, and relined the said pit. That to furnish the material and to do the said extra work of constructing the said foundation were reasonably worth the sum of $125 25; that to construct the said extra bottom in the said pumping pit was reasonably worth the sum of $156 05, and it was reasonably worth to reline the said pumping pit $250, making a total of $531 25, which plaintiffs earned and which they became, and still are, entitled to demand and receive of the said defendant for and on account of the said extra work and material. At this time of year a cold is very easily contracted, and if left to run its course without the aid of some reliable cough medicine is liable to result in that dread disease, pneumonia. We know of no better remedy to cure a cough or a cold than Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. We have used it quite extensively and it has always given entire satisfaction. — Olagah, Ind. Ind., Chief. This is the only remedy that is known to be a certain preventive of pneumonia. Among the many thousand who have used it for colds and la gripe, we have never yet learned of a single case having resulted in pneumonia. Persons who have weak lungs or have reason to fear an attack of pneumonia should keep the remedy at hand. The 25 and 50 cent sizes for sale by P. A. Derge. A story which partially parallels in detail the memorable experience of Tom Sawyer is brought from the North by the steamer Willapa, which returned to Victoria some days ago. The difference is that Mark Twain's hero listened to his own funeral sermon Nevertheless, prices are not only lower than those prevailing at this time a year ago, but ever since the opening of this season there has been a material decline. Cargoes sold this week bring from 50 cents to $1 a box less than the same brands realized at the first date. One of the principal reasons advanced for the present condition of the market is the increasing competition of California fruit, which this year has entered the markets in a quantity where it was almost unknown previously. It is the opinion of some that California fruit will eventually displace imported lemons in practically all sections of this country, as it already has in the West. E. L. Turner of Buffalo, representing Patte & Lett, one of the Riverside shippers of California oranges and lemons, who is in this city, when questioned in reference to this competition said: "From my correspondents throughout the Missouri and other valleys, as well as other sections it appears that during past ninety days California lemons have almost entirely displaced the imported article, and prices up to the present have been very satisfactory. While arrivals of Messina lemons have been only about one-half those for the same period of time last year, on the other hand these have been distributed along the Atlantic seaboard, and the quantity has more than been equal to the demand." "Prior to this fall no California lemons came east of the Missouri river, with the exception of Chicago, to which city a considerable number of cars were consigned; whereas this season they have pushed their way into all markets distant more than 500 miles from the Atlantic coast; and a few cars have been shipped to New York, Boston and Philadelphia and sold at good prices. From indications California will have fully 500,000 boxes of lemons to market in '98." Another prominent receiver of lemons said: "One reason for the present depression is that there were a good many lemons held over from last season, which were sold recently at low prices, thus weakening the market. I also believe the consumption of lemons is not so great as formerly. There can be no question but that California fruit is cutting much more of a figure this year than ever before." How to Prevent Pneumonia. At this time of year a cold is very easily contracted, and if left to run its course without the aid of some reliable cough medicine is liable to result in that dread disease, pneumonia.

Higgins, however, was literally obeying the orders. He never looked back. He never noticed the retreat of his regiment, but came bounding forward, his colors flying as prettily as a soldier over saw. When within forty yards of our works word was passed along the line not to shoot the brave soldier, and all firing ceased. When Higgins saw the predicament he started to retreat with his colors, but we told him to come on or we would have to shoot him. Several men ran out and brought him within the breastworks. We kept him several days, during which time we learned to like and admire him. He was then paroled. He was one of the men who witnessed us heroic deed and made an affidavit that effect. Several of my companions who saw the charge, also made affidavits. On these the Secretary of War granted a medal. Higgins could have been vouched for by members of his regiment, but the novelty of recommendation by his former foes led to the course." James Martin of New Rochelle, N.Y., who owns a farm adjoining the property of the New Rochelle Water Company, which is said to be controlled by the Iselin family, has taken the aggressive in dispute over a dividing line. He is so firmly convinced that the water company has fenced in part of his farm that he has torn down the wire fence erected by the company, and alternately with his wife stands guard over the property with a shotgun. The dispute has been in the courts for two years. Martin says Adrian Iselin purchased a mortgage of $500 on the property from man named Percy of Yonkers several days before the mortgage became due and that he foreclosed and bought in twenty acres of the land at $200 an acre. Martin made application before Judge Dykman in the Supreme Court set aside the sale. Judge Dykman decided in his favor and Mr. Iselin appealed. The Appellate Division reversed the decision, but allowed Martin the privilege of carrying the case to the Court of Appeals. The proceedings then stopped. In the mean time the water company had erected the barbric fence. Subsequently Martin learned that another portion of his farm was about to be sold under foreclosure. He believed that Iselin was interested in this movement, and his selling toward the water company became one-of-intense hatred. He threatened to shoot several of the company's employees who were at work in a ditch they did not get off the property at noon.

A story which partially parallels in detail the memorable experience of Tom Sawyer is brought from the North by the steamer Willapa, which returned to Victoria some days ago. The difference is that Mark Twain's hero listened to his own funeral sermon through mischievous curiosity. The men in the northern story arrived at their homes in Claxton just too late to hear their virtues extolled and the bereaved families commiserated from the pulpit of the village church. Robinson, a well-known canner of Inverness, Fred Barham and three other employees, were the heroes of this strange adventure. They had left Iverness for Claxton in an open boat on the end of the fishing season, and not being heard from after a month of rough weather, were given up as dead, their relatives assuming the garb of mourning and impressive funeral services were being conducted. The very next day the party returned, having been windbound, but well cared for during the three weeks at an old fishing station a few miles above Inverness. How's This?

Sibley, a merchant in Sheffield, Iowa, was shot dead while robbing a neighboring store. The safe in his private apartments was opened and many diamond rings, gold bracelets and jewelry of every description, including fifteen gold watches, were found. Dry goods that had been stolen by sibley was identified by merohants from whom they had been stolen. John A. Schlesinger of Hampton identified clothing stolen from a car in the railroad yards at Hampton and for which the railroad had to settle. Mr. Hobble of Hampton found three bicycles which were stolen from him. Sibley was reputed to be worth $40,000. John Morgan, sentenced to be hanged at Ribley, Va., Dec. 16th, played a sharp trick on the jailor Thursday night, whereby he walked out of the jail and took to the woods, where blood-hounds are now on the trail. A short time ago he sold a confession for $25. With the money he bought a new suit of clothes to wear on the gallows. Thursday night he made a dummy of his old suit and put it to bed in his cell. Donning his new suit, he climbed on top of the cell and lay there until it was locked for the night. Then he escaped and was not missed until Friday morning. A reward of $500 is offered for his arrest. His crime, the murder of Mrs. Green, her son and daughter, was committed a month ago near Grass Lick, Va. Charley Korse, who was committed to the industrial school at Ione from Orange county in November, 1895, returned to his father's home in Orange last Wednesday evening, having escaped from the school three days before. Threats by the Superintendent to maintain security were reported. The marriage of Miss Marie Hitch, daughter of Captain E. V. Hitch, formerly of New Orleans, to Henry George Jr., son of the late Henry George of New York, was celebrated at the home of the bride's father in Chicago on Thursday. The wedding was a quiet one, owing to the recent death of George's father. The bride was simply but handsomely gowned in white silk and lace and was attended by her sister, Miss Ellmore Hitch, and the groom was attended by Ralph Crawford of New York as best man. A wedding breakfast was served, after which the bride and groom left for Washington. Mrs. and Miss George, mother and sister of the groom, were among the guests. The wedding was to have taken place a week ago, but the sudden death of Henry George in the heat of the recent campaign in New York City caused a postponement of the event. The Postoffice Department is taking a firm stand against the so-called "missing letter" and "missing word." with the department. Rapier's attorneys hold that the language of the statute relating to postmasters of the first-class is special; that it provides that the President shall appoint and may remove such officers by and with the advice of the senate. Consequently as Rapier's commission has not expired and Barker's appointment has not been confirmed by the senate, nor Rapier's removal confirmed by the same body, Rapier is still postmaster. He is now awaiting the next move of Barker and the inspector. The December statement of the public debt shows that at the close of business November 30, 1897, the public debt, less cash in the treasury, amounted to $1,009,226,466, a decrease since October 30th of $11,338,125. This decrease is accounted for by an increase in the cash due to the deposit of an installment of the proceeds of the sale of the government's interests in the Union Pacific railroad. But for this transaction the cash in the treasury would have been $771,450 less than October. The debt is recapitulated as follows: Interest bearing debt, $847,-365,629; debt on which interest has ceased since maturity, $1,331,280; debt bearing no interest, $381,193,125; total $1,229,890,025. "For rent—three rooms." This is the commonplace sign that hangs on the front of the house at 4511 North Twentieth street. In St. Louis, Mo., occupied by Jacob Burkhardt, but the cause for the sign is unique. The vacant rooms were until a few days ago occupied by Burkhardt's daughters, Ella, Laura, Lotta and Mrs. Emma Godfrey. About two months ago the father told them that if they were not married by December 1st they would have to move out and take care of themselves. Not caring to marry to please their father they have left him and are at present living in a very pretty little flat at 2102 Obear avenue. Ella is said to be engaged but she preferred not to get married at once on account of her father's orders and has gone with her sisters. The others are said to have bad opportunities, but not suitable to them. The young women are amenable happy and say they Thursday night he made a dummy of his old suit and put it to bed in his cell.

Charley Korse, who was committed to the industrial school at Ione from Orange county in November, 1895, returned to his father's home in Oradge last Wednesday evening, having escaped from the school three days before. Threats by the Superintendent to punish the boy caused the runaway. He would not have left, as he was learning a good trade and was contented. The Orange constable arrested him and took him to Santa Ana. Korse was implicated with Bill and Fred Schuch in robbing the Orangethorpe schoolhouse. Bill Schuch was sent to State's prison for three years. His time expired last week. The younger Schuch is now in the institution at Ione. The authorities at Ione have been notified, and Korse will probably be returned to that institution. Mrs. Wm. E. Hawley committed suicide in Oakland Sept. 17th, and a coroner's jury recorded a verdict of suicide. The remains were buried in her former home in Napa. The will that Mrs. Hawley left, bequeathing her property to her husband, is now being contested by her sisters and brothers, and her remains have been exhumed and her skull is now in the hands of a San Francisco chemist for examination. The relatives charge that the will produced by the husband, which is intended to benefit him to the extent of $30,000, is a forgery, and while they will say nothing as to the purpose of the examination of the skull, they have put detectives on the case and the supposition is that they desire to prove that Mrs. Hawley did not commit suicide. William Kern, under arrest at Waterloo, Iowa, for the murder of his father, Jerome Kern, has made a confession, in which he implicates his sweetheart, Dellah Fales. Kern's parents opposed his marriage to the young woman, and he states that she plotted the killing of both his parents, and prevailed upon him to attempt the carrying out of her plot, that they might acquire possession of the family's little farm and live there together. Jerome Kern was lured by the son into the woods, and there deliberately shot by Miss Fales. The dead man's clothing was then saturated with oil and set on fire, the object being to conceal the manner of his death. Kern was frightened into his confession by detectives who haunted him in the guise of the ghost of his murdered father. He also confessed that the murder of his mother was to have been accomplished at a later date. John R. Soott, the colored politician and Republican leader in Florida, who opened the last republican national convention at St. Louis with prayer, is in the county jail at Jacksonville charged with the murder of the Rev. Obadiah Adams, pastor of St. James' African Methodist Episcopal church in the Brooklyn suburb. Scott and Adams had a revolver dual, the politician chasing the pastor around a telegraph pole, and firing at him at every step. Adams was shot in both legs and the stomach, but managed to walk home. He became worse and an operation was performed, from the effects of which he died. After the shooting Scott, who is a city alderman, went to the police station and gave himself up, but was released soon after without George's father. The bride was simply but handsomely gowned in white silk and lace and was attended by her sister, Miss Ellmore Hitch, and the groom was attended by Ralph Crawford of New York as best man. A wedding breakfast was served, after which the bride and groom left for Washington. Mrs. and Miss George, mother and sister of the groom, were among the guests.

The Postoffice Department is taking a firm stand against the so-called "missing letter" and "missing word" contest which are being conducted by a number of publishers to increase their subscription lists. The lottery law directs that the postmaster-general, upon evidence-satisfactory to himself, that a concern or person is operating through the mails a lottery, or scheme offering prizes dependent upon lot or chance, to prohibit the delivery of mail matter to it. All newspapers and periodicals containing advertisements of the character named are forbidden transmission in the mails. This law, it is now announced at the postoffice department, will be applied to all schemes which are violations of it if they are continued in operation or advertisements of them are published. "Missing letter" contests are held to be such violations because many correct answers are given, but only one list is deemed the "correct list" by the promoter of the scheme. The chance consists in guessing what words compose the so-called "correct list." Such schemes are held to be especially obnoxious, owing to the skillful wording of the advertisement which makes the chance for obtaining a prize more remote than in the defunct Louisiana lottery. For a week a revival of religion has been in progress at the Methodist church at Osmond, Neh. The Rev. Horace Payne of the Missouri conference has been conducting meetings, and he has worked up such a great interest that all the ministers of the country assist at the services. A big meeting was thoroughly advertised. The subject announced was: "The sin of greed and the certain damnation of him who appropriates that which is another's." The large meeting house is in a grove near the edge of town. Seven preachers were present, and the farmers from all over the country attended. They hitched their fine teams to the trees around the church. The ministers spoke eloquently, and strangely enough, all of them referred to horsestealing and the evils of horse trading as practiced by many sharpers as among the worst evils of the West. After the meeting was over it was discovered that a raid had been made on the horses hitched around the church. Sixteen of the most valuable horses were stolen, together with two fine bugles. The raid was evidently arranged in advance and participated in by several skillful horse thieves. No trace of the gang has been found, though a number of armed posses have been beating the ravines along the river to the north. The ground was frozen and no trace of the trail of the stolen stock was left. A gang of horse thieves have operated in the territory for some time and the work is attributed to them. A report that Gen. Pando, who was placed in charge of the military operations in Cuba by Gen. Blanco, has been killed in an engagement with insurgents in Santa Clara province, has been cabled from Havana. The news has caused the most intense excitement by Jacob Burkhardt, but due to cause for the sign is unique. The vacant rooms were until a few days ago occupied by Burkhardt's daughters, Ella Laura Lotta and Mrs Emma Godfrey. About two months ago the father told them that if they were not married by December 1st they would have to move out and take care of themselves. Not caring to marry to please their father, they have left him and are at present living in a very pretty little flat at 2102 Obear avenue. Ella is said to be engaged but she preferred not to get married at once on account of her father's orders and has gone with her sisters. The others are said to have had opportunities, but not suitable to them. The young women are apparently happy and say they are able to take care of themselves. They are all popular among their acquaintances. H. Harris, a San Francisco hatter, met with a terrible accident near San Rafael one evening last week. He took the 630 o'clock boat from the city intending to visit a friend. Upon boarding the train he found the cars crowded, and decided to take a place upon the platform of the smoker. Upon rounding a sharp curve, just after passing through a long tunnel, he was jerked from the platform and hurled under the flying train. His right foot was caught by a wheel and was badly crushed. Dragging himself from the track, Harris lay down and prepared to die. He was bleeding badly and soon lost consciousness. When he recovered stars were shining brightly, and he concluded that it was near midnight. In the distance he heard the rumbling of an approaching train. Rapidly the glaring light of the engine approached, and the wounded man sat up and frantically waved his hands and shouted. The train thundered by, and the wounded man waited again until another train came along. Again he sought to make himself heard, but failed. Then he gave up hope and remembered no more. The engineer of first train for San Francisco next morning saw an apparently lifeless body lying beside the track, stopped the train. Harris was taken on board and taken to his home. His recovery is doubtful. Secretary Sherman has closed the case of Emil Clark, Consular Agent at Puira, Peru, which attracted attention some months ago, by calling for his resignation. On April 22 last Clark was ousted from the quarters used below as the United States consular office and above as a residence. It was stated at time that the consulate had been sacked;the house plundered and an indignity put upon its government through its representative.The State Department promptly called on him for particulars which he said he would furnish.The Peruvian minister put a different phase on the matter by submitting a statement that Clark was in arrears to a considerable amount on rent for the building;that only lower portion was used for consular purposes although he had placed the United States coat-of-arms on all doors ofthe house; thus usingthe American emblem for ignoble purposes.The courts had given a regular decree against Clark.it was stated,directing him to vacatethe premisesfor nonpaymentofrent,andin pursuanceofthis decreehewas ejected.Secretary Sherman waited until recently for Clark's statement,andasthiswasnot furnishedafterfivemonthsThe Secretary directed our minister at Lima.Mr.Dudley,tocallonhimforhisresignation.unlesstheproofsfhe alleged sackingwereinhand.Dudleyhad evidentlynotreceivedtheproofs.forhehasnot notifiedtheStateDepartmentthathehascalledonClarkforhisresignation and Republican leader in Florida, who opened the last republican national convention at St. Louis with prayer, is in the county jail at Jacksonville charged with the murder of the Rev. Obadiah Adams, pastor of St. James African Methodist Episcopal church in the Brooklyn suburb. Scott and Adams had a revolver duel, the politician chasing the pastor around a telegraph pole, and firing at him at every step. Adams was shot in both legs and the stomach, but managed to walk home. He became worse and an operation was performed, from the effects of which he died. After the shooting Scott, who is a city alderman, went to the police station and gave himself up, but was released soon after without bail. The county authorities, hearing of the dangerous condition of Adams, rearrested Scott and placed him in jail. A woman was the cause of the quarrel. For six days Felix Donnelly, a Randsburg miner, wandered about the Mojave desert, vainly searching for water or some trail that would enable him to reach help. It was not until after he hadain down to die that aid reached him. Donnelly took his partner from Randsburg to mines situated seventy miles north. On Sunday, the 14th Donnelly started to return home. He expected to reach Landers Well by nightfall, but became lost. At dawn he climbed a peak and got his bearings, but after driving all that day he succeeded in reaching only a dry camp, where he shared the last water in his canteen with his horse. A blinding sandstorm came up, causing him to lose his way the next day, and when he did reach Landers Well it was to find it dry. Unhitching his horse that had fallen exhausted he placed some hay before it and rushed off to the mines for water and assistance. He traveled nearly all day, until he sank to the ground from sheer weakness. When he awoke he found he was lost again, and for three days following he remembers wandering about in search of some signs of a habitation. Saturday noon he was picked up in a dazed condition by an Italian sheepherder, and on the following day he came to himself by Indian Wells, nearly a hundred miles west of Randaburg. Alice Starret, a Danish Countess, grandniece of Gen. J. B. Doe, former Assistant Secretary of War, married Robert C. Tettslef of Spring Lake, Wis. The ceremony was secretly performed. Miss Starret's right to the title of Countesss was acknowledged while she was in Europe several months ago, and she was received at the court in Denmark. She is the daughter of Capt. Starret. Alice was educated in a convent in France. Mrs. Ferslew, her grandmother, married Count Ferrearranged in advance and participated in by several skillful horse thieves. No trace of the gang has been found, though a number of armed posses have been beating the ravines along the river to the north. The ground was frozen and no trace of the trail of the stolen stock was left. A gang of horse thieves have operated in the territory for some time and the work is attributed to them. A report that Gen. Pando, who was placed in charge of the military operations in Cuba by Gen. Blanco, has been killed in an engagement with insurgents in Santa Clara province, has been cabled from Havana. The news has caused the most intense excitement in the palace and in official circles, and every effort is being made to get news from Gen. Pando's force, and to find out the truth or falsity of the startling news. No details of the killing of the Spanish commander have been received beyond the statement that he was shot in a battle with a force of insurgents while on the march from Sagua la Grande, on the northern coast of Santa Clara, to Trinidad, on the southern coast of the same province, where he was to take a ship and go to Manzanillo, in the eastern province of Santiago de Cuba. Officials at the palace declare that the story must be thoroughly confirmed before they will believe it. They say the last reports from Gen. Pando were that he would be on his way to Manzanillo by that time. Gen. Pando's plan was to march right through the heart of the territory which Gen. Gomez's force is declared to have controlled. Communication with the forces in the field has not been regular, and until further direct news from Gen. Pando's army is received the Havana authorities will be in a state of greatest anxiety. Simultaneously with the report of Gen. Pando's death comes news of a battle with insurgents near Matanzas, in which the Spanish forces were routed and driven from the field. This engagement was bitterly fought, and it is asserted that the losses of the Spaniards were very heavy. For some days past the newly appointed postmaster of Mobile, Ala., P.D. Barker, Republican, has endeavored in vain to obtain possession of the office from Postmaster Rapier, Democrat. The latter's attorneys have raised an entireley new point of law; which Inspector Tate says has never been raised in his experience. Postmaster Rapier's commission expires in December, 1898. Barker was appointed by McKinley in October last. Rapier has had no notice of his removal, although Inspector Tate served upon him telegraphic instructions from Postmaster General Gary saying that Rapier should accept Barker's commission as notice of removal, no other notice being customary Three men perished in the freight-train wreck on the Santa Fe which occurred near Williams, A.T., early last Tuesday and their mangled bodies were cremated in the ruins of the cars. The dead are: Engineer Newton, Engineer Watson, and Fireman Sperry. The injured are Conductor Thomas O'Kelly and Fireman T.J.Ford. The wreck was one of the worst in the history of the Santa Fe and the loss was heavy. The train, which was the regular west-bound overland freight, consisted of thirty-one cars, all but one heavily loaded, and was drawn by two heavy engines. It left Williams about 4 o'clock and started up the heavy grade just west of the town. It is three miles to the summit, and the heavy train toiled slowly up the slope and reached the top without accident. The train crossed the divide and started down the other side. The air brakes were set. Hardly had the descent begun when the brakes gave way and the heavily loaded cars freed from restraint, shot down the grade, with ever quickening speed. Faster and faster the heavy train went, the cars fairly bounding along over the rails. For four miles the flying train held the rails and the engineers and firemen stuck to their posts, awaiting the fate in store for them. At a curve the train jumped the track and piled up in a canyon. Cars were smashed to kindling wood and the heavy engines were battered and broken. In a moment flames burst out in the wreck, started by the engine fire, and spread rapidly in the great pile of debris. The scene at the wreck was grand flames from the burning cars shooting up among the stately pines. Amid the roar and crackle of the fire there were loud reports, due to explosives in the cars. Engineer Watson resigned last week, but his company would not accept his resignation, and he started on his first trip anew on the day of the accident. Engineer Newton was waiting impatiently for the last of the month, when he expected to quit railroad work forever.
