GENERAL RIVERA.
Bacallao, and his adjutant, Lieutenant
Terry. General Rivera and Lieutenant
Terry were both wounded.

General Rivera is the insurgentcom-
mander who succeeded General Anto-
nio Maceo in command of the insur—
' gents in Pinar del Rio.

' He is considered next in military im-
portance to General Maxnno Gomez.

The insurgents left 10 men killed and
the troops, pursuing the enemy, cap-
tured ‘a quantity of arms, ammunition,
dynamite caps, &,c. The troops had one
man killed, Lieutenant Wolgesraffen,
and 24 soldiers wounded.

The Capture.

Later advices from Pinar del Rio con—
firm the capture of General Ruiz Ri-
vera, the well known insurgent leader.

General Rivera and his chief of staff,
Colonel Bacallao, were bi.
oners at San Cristobal, pronuce
mar del Rio, yesterday morning.

Lieutenant Terry, the adjutant of
General Rivera, who was made prison-
er at the same time, died while on his
way to San Cristobal.

He was wounded by the explosion of
a Spanish shell during the capture of
the insurgent position at Cabezadas
yesterday morning.

Captain General Weyler has gone by
rail from Sagua le Grande, province of
Santa ‘Clara, to Santo Domingo and
Cruces, in the same province.

From the latter place he pushed on
to Cienfuegos, the important, port in
the southern part of Santa Clara,
. where he arrived yesterday.

Rivera’s Career.

General Juan Ruis Rivera Was born
at Mayaguez, Puerto RiCO, about 50
years ago and went as a boy to Barce—
lona, where he became a law student.

Leaving his studies and intellectual
surroundings, of which he was passion-
ately fond, he came to Cuba in 1870 to
take part in the 10 years’ war.

He at once became secretary to Ca-
lixto Garcia, then chief of the eastern
department. Rivera, however, was
anxious for a more honorable and peril-
ous post, so he was placed in command
of a separate battalion.

Here he soon gave marked evidences
of strategic skill and ability as a leader
of men. Forming a cavalry squadron,
Rivera drove his Spanish foes to des—
peration by his unerring skill in finding
their weakest point and by his dashing
courage as a cavalry leader.

He led his men into some of the fierc—
est engagements of the. war and at this
time formed his life long attachment
for General Maceo.

After the quelling of the insurrection
he followed his beloved chief into exile.

When the new revolt broke out Ri-
vera hastened to take up arms for his
country and soon became as prominent
a fighter as in the former war.

He was reported dead a few months
ago, but soon gave his foes bitter rea-
son to .know the rumor was false.

When Maceo was killed General Ri-
vera succeeded him as commander of
the insurgent forces in the province of
Pinar del Rio. »

Reporter Crosby Killed.

Washington, March 30.—The follow-
ing dispatch has been received from
Consul General Lee, dated Havana:

ter Oak park, which since the enactment
of the antipcol law in this state has been
unused. has been sold to Andrew J. Welch

$25,000. It is the intention of the new
owners to restore the park to the prestige
it had in its palmy days, and they have
appointed W. B. Fasig as manager.

 

It is their intention to bring some of the

best racing that this section has ever seen
in conjunction with Boston and New York,

starting in the latter city and coming here '

on the way to Boston and putting in a. big
live or six day meet.

The formal opening of the park under
its new management will take place Aug.

contemplated is the building of a quarter
mile bicycle track and the establishment
of a bicycle club on the grounds.

ported that 11 Newfoundland sealing
steamers which have been fishing off the

The hopeful anticipations which were
founded upon the success of two steamers
that got cargoes 011’ the west coast early in
the season have been completely destroyed.
Taken in connection with the wretched
condition of the codfish market, the out-
look for the colony next summer is ex-
tremely gloomy. -

‘ lonika says:

“Within a few days Edhem Pasha
(the TurkiSh commander on the Greek
frontier) will have under his command
150,000 men, which will constitute his
army. as soldiers,” and adds:

“I am specially struck with the rapid
strides the Turkish organization has
made within the last few years in re-
gard to military railways and hospitals.
Within a month 152 trains have tra-
versed Salonika. An infant system
which has stood such a strain is worthy
of the highest praise.

across the bay from Cape Kara. The
large supply of ammunition here and
at Constantinople is being supplement-
ed by German consignments.”

The Austrian View.

Vienna, March 30.‘—The speech from
the throne at the opening of the reichs-
rath today expresses the hope that the
co-operation of the powers will lead to
a satisfactory solution of the Cretan
question and proceeds: ”Greece’s in-
considerate action has led my govern-
ment, in close contact and with the full
confidence of the other powers, to adopt
measures aiming to maintain the status
quo. If, then, Greece in the present
phase can in no way count upoh the ap-
proval of the powers, on the other hand,
Turkey must take into account that she
would assume great responsibility if,
blinding herself to her most vital inter—
ests and contrary to the unanimous ad-
vice cf the powers, she refuse to rem-
edy said abuses and thus maintain a
situation concealing" the germ of con-
stant anxiety.”

Crown Prince Constantin Goes to Com-
mand the Greek Forces. '

 

HE SAYS HE KNOWS HIS DUTY

And Assures His Countrymen That He
\Vill Acquit Himself Like a Soldier.
His Departure Believed to Be
the Signal For Hostilities.

Athens. March 29.—Crown Prince Con- .
ltantin, who is to take command of the
Greek forces on the frontier, has started
for Volo. He was accompanied by the

crown princess, who will go as far as Ln~

rissa, where she will inspect the arrange-
ments made by the Red Cross society. She
will remain there two (1333 and then re-
turn to Athens.

An immense demonstration was made
before the palace previous to the dépar~
ture of the crown prince. The crowd en-‘
thusiastically cheered for the royal pair,
the king of Greece, Crete, etc. A deputa-
tion presented the crown prince with a.
copy of the resolutions which were adopt.-
3d at a public meeting held recently de-
claring that the people of Athens and the
Pirrus Were faithful interpreters of the
sentiments of the nation, which was ready
to make any sacrifice of blood or money
in the cause of Crete.

Crown Prince Constantin replied as fol-
lows: “Havo ronfidencc in me; I know
my duty. Rest assured I shall acquit my-
self “KL: .2 soldier.”

After Ehc family dinner at the palace
the “Te 'Deum" was sung in the chapel,
thp metropolitan officiating. The crown
prince kissed the metropolitan’s hands,
and the king and queen kissed the prince
and princess. All were deeply affected.

It is semio‘l‘firiully stated that the ques-
tion of dcwlurEng war depends upon the
present negotiatlmis with the powers. No
one on the streets of Athens believes this,
all accepting the departure of. the crown
prince/as indicatingr that Greece has come
to a definite dec.sion to go to war.

In Candis the public heralds are con-
stantly running through the streets ex-
horting the faithful to make a sortie and
fight the Christians. An official who vis-
ited Captain Koeakas’ camp was informed
that he had 16,000 troops and provisions
enough to last five months.

The' government has issued severe or-
ders to the chiefs of the frontier army to
restrain the troops and prevent any ag-

gression.
By order of the g0vernment the Greek
commandant. at Pincus. the port of

Athens, today prohibited the departure of
the steamer Heriklia and conflscated'her
cargo, which consisted of provisions in-
tended for Mussulmans on the island of
Crete. -

The government commanders in Thes-
saly have adt pted stringent measures to
prevent the spread of smallpox, which is
raging among a portion of the troops.

A dispatch from Khania says that can-
non firing has been froceedingnear Aliki-
anon, whcrc Colonel Vassos, the com—
mander of the Greek army in Crete, is en-
camped.

A dispatch from Khania says that the
insurgents at Akrotiri \fired on the launch
of the British admiral, which was on route
from Sudan buy to witness the attack on
the blockhousc above Fort Izibdin.

Russia’s Policy.

St. Petersburg, March 29.—Tho Greeks
arc overflowing: with joy at may one of
the furtl er complications which follow
the efforts of the powers to establish order
in Crete. and reports are made that this
sentiment, of exultation has given rise to
a strong feeling that Greece has been on-
couraged in her refusal to aid the powers
by their ovcrirdulgcnce, and in consc-
quencc a. pol (:37 of greater severity will
soon be forthcoming, even if one power
were to fall o..t of the concert.

The Noyce. \‘rcmya, which now repre-
sents fairly Fussia's fixed policy, says:
“The blockade of Greece must. be hasten-
ed, even it' England stands aloof. All
means are good to bring good sense home
to the Greeks. The only danger is'in a
conflict between the Greeks and the Turks.
We must let the Greeks know they must
renounce that desperate step and give up
ambitions for which they started the Cro-
tan agitation.”

 

Viar Sec-ms Inevitable.

London. March BEL—A dispatch to The
Observer from Athens says: “It isstated
on the test 0" ::uthority that war may be
expected to ‘ 1"").k out at any moment,
most probaby near Arta and less prob-
ably near Larissa. In diplomatic circles
the presence of Crown Prince Constantin,
it; is believed, will havearestraining influ-
ence on the troops, more especially the
troops now-formed in brigades, thus break-
ing the influence of the national commit-
tee, which has hitherto been paramount.”

A dispatch to The Observer from Berlin
says that Lieutenant General von Bergoltz
of the Fifth division, Third army corps,
is a candidate for governor of Crete. It
is said that Germany, Russia, Austria and
Turkey have agreed to support him.

A dispatch to The Observer from Rome
says the officials of the foreign oflice con-
sider that war between Turkey and Greece
is inevitable.

Columbia Crew’s Debts Paid.

New York, March Ell—The debts of Co-
lumbia’s varsity and freshmen crews for
the last three years have been paid. There
is now clear sailing for the blue and white
boats. Today Dr. Otis, ’82, chairman of
the committee on finance, 5 'd that all
outstanding bills, including ems from
the 1894, 1895 and 1896 sights.» amounting
to over $3,500, had been settled. At Co«
lumbia there seems very little doubt that
the varsity and freshman crews’ races with ‘
Cornell and Pennsylvania will be held as
usual at Poughkeepsie. All arrangements

ONE STEPEERERWAR' BIG EEEEEE MINE DEAL

English Capitalists After a' Slice of

Amcn can Mineral, Land.

IN MONTANA AND ARIZONA.

 

The Butte and Boston and Old Dominion
Properties, \Vhich Are Rich In
‘Their Output, of Ores,‘May
Be Consolidated.

New York, March 31.—It is stated in
copper circles that a mining deal of
considerable magnitude is about to be
consummated. It involves the consolida-
tion of important copper properties in
Montana and Arizona. ,.

Ever since the acquisition of a fourth
interest in th. Anaconda copper mine
in Montana by me Rothschilds, and the
subsequent strength of the copper mar-
ket due to the increased consumption
of the metal in Europe, chiefly for elec-
trical‘purposes, foreign capitalists have
endeavored to secure copper producing
mines in this country. An attempt to
secure the control of the stock of the
Calumet and Hecla Mining company
failed not long ago, though it is said
that an English syndicate offered $400
per share. The stock is now selling for
$375 to $380 per share.

There is a plan now under considera-
tion whereby the control of the Butte
and Boston properties in Montana and
the Old Dominion copper mines in Ari-
zona, which are now held by A. S. Bige-
low of Boston and Lewisohn Brothers
of this city, may pass into the hands of
Englishmen.

As there is no provision in the char-
ter of either company for consolidation,
and one operates in Montana and the
other in Arizona, it is believed that if
the negotiations should be successful
a new company will be formed which
will acquire the properties in question
by purchase. with the consent of a ma—‘
jority of the stockholders.

The Butte and Boston Mining com-
pany was organized recently. Although
it is not being worked very actively at
present preparations. are ,making for
energetic work.

The Interested Properties.

The old company went into the hands
of a receiver, and the property was fore—
closed by the bondholders. who organ—
ized the new company. The directors
now are A. S. Bigelow, Thomas Nelson,
Leonard Leuisohn, Charles Van Brunt,
Edward P. Perkins. Clarence I—I. Bis-
sell and Edgar Buffman. The Engineer-
ing and Mining Journal,in its last issue,
printed an editorial stating that the new
company was organized with a capital
stock of $2,000,000, in $10 shares, and a.
bonded indebtedness of $1,500,000, but
that no disinterested information can
be obtained concerning the value of the
company’s property. It is said that C.
W. Goodale. a mining engineer, found
reserves worth $200,000 and that Captain
Couch, the well known expert, found
less than $400,000. The reduction works,
according to the same paper, are old
fashioned and will require a large ex—
penditure to bring them up to modern
requirements. The stock is selling for
$18.50@$19 in Boston.

The Old Dominion Copper company
has its mines at Globe, A. T. They have
not been r.xtensivc‘ywoz-ked of late. The
property has produced as much ".5 11,-
000,000 pounds of copper in one . 11', and
it is beli: red in mining circles bat the
DFOdUCth’ZI could reach that figme once
more if railroad facilities should be im-
proved. The present output is placed
by an officer of the company at the rate
of 7,000,000 pounds a year.

At the sill-cc of Lewisohn Bros. 81
Fulton street, Leonard Lewisohn could
not be sec-1:. '\'.'I.e’: ZT‘EL'ZOFtid to make
some statement in rci‘cvcnce to the mat-
ter, he sent out “rt-rd to the reporter
that he had no know-ltlge of the deal.

 

Drank :1 Gallon of Alcohol.

Harrisburg, March 30. ——Alfred J.
Newman,.35 years old, is dead and W.
H. Henderson, 38 years old, is hovering
between life and death from drinking
alcohol which they found in a barrel
Saturday afternoon while working in
the cellar of a Harrisburg drug firm.
A coroner’s jury found that Newman’s
death was due to the excessive use of
alcohol. The men drank nearly a gallon
between them.

healthy all the time. The days that find
usalittle out of health are the days, that
disease germs obtain a lodgment,

Nature z‘lzen needs [101]). .‘

Angler’s Petroleum Emulsion is that
help. It is an. antiseptic—a purifier of dis—
eased parts, an expeller of disease germs.

It makes the tissues inhospitable and
uninhabitable; the germs abandon their
feeding ground, die, pass out of the system.

That is one thing that Angler’s Petro-
leum Emulsion does. '

The other thing is that it rebuilds t/zose
.x'nfected and diseased tissues.

It soothes and heals the inflamed mucqis
-membranes. It cleanses the congested
parts of poisonous matter.

It is unequalled in the treatment of
chronic coughs, consumption, bronchitis,
and all weaknesses 6f the lungs.

It aids the enfeebled digestion. It corrects
the perverted bowel action. It feeds the
exhausted nerves. It makes new, sound
flesh, revitalized and nourishing blood.

It fattens. .

It does all t/zese filings.

Thousands of physicians prescribe it as
a welcome substitute for Cod-Liver Oil.

It is perfectly agreeable to take.

It disturbs no function; it is as well
adapted for the feeble invalid or delicate
child as for the more robust.

It is a. wonderful remedy.

It is medicine—it is food. . '
