' Cable News.

Rome, Sept. 18.——The Tribuna pub-
lishes an interview which its correspon-
dent at Aden had with General Augus-
tin, formerly governor general of the
Philippines. In the course of the in-
tgrview General Augustin recounts va-
rious events which took place during
the defence of Manila, which city, he
says, was without resources, without
a sufficient force, without artillery.
without supplies and without hope of
receiving reinforcements from Admiral
Camara. -

'After the attack on July 31 by Gen-
eral Greene, and that of August 2 by
General Anderson, supported by the
Pennsylvania volunteers, the blockade
was made more stringent, and as a re-
sult of the operations conducted by
General Merritt, further resistance be—
came impoSsible.‘ .

The committeecf defence were di-
vided, someibeing in favor of capitu-
lation, while others advised extreme re-
sistance. General Augustin, who was
without instructions, declared that he

_ would not assume the responsibility

of capitulation or of resistance, which
would bring about the sacrifice of thou-
sands of peaceful persons, and resigned
his command to General Jaudenes, con-
fining himself to figuring among the
defenders of the town as an ordinary
soldier.

The general attack on the place was
made by the Americans, the line of
defence was broken and the capitula-
tion was effected. The conditions im-
posed by the Spaniards were accepted
by General Merritt, who entered Ma-
nila at the same time that General Au-

' gustin left itinn board one of the boats

of the German cruiser Kaiserin Augus-
ta.

On this boat he found his family.
They had been rescued by Admiral
Diedrichs, who had previously come to
an agreement with Dewey.

General Augustin explained the hur—
ried departure of the Kalserln Augusta
by the fact that. the admiral desired
to send the German emperor the first
news of the capitulation. The Kaiserin
Augusta steamed from Manila to Hong
Kong in thirty-eight hours, which was
extraordinary speed.

At Hong Kong General Augustin
and his family took passage in the
Princess Heinrich for Genoa. Just af«
ter leaving port the steamer was over-
taken by a violent cyclone, and for a
time was in serious danger, many arti-
cles of baggage being lost." Senora Au-
gustin fell and fractured her left wrist.

General “alum denied that his
wife had been a. prisoner of Aguinaldo.
She and the children were going to
Pampaye by rail. This district was
occupied by insurgents. The family
was protected by a. regiment of militia
commanded by Ca tain Blanch, and
after many adven urea reached the
coast and embarked in a. native boat,
which saved them. so . - -

General Augustin arrived at Naples
yesterday and left for Madrid. He has
intended resuming his seat in the Sen-

ate.

ler. ~ gall—Ivo-
Three of them are to be sent to a
camp hereafter to be designated with-
in one hundred miles of Huntlville,
Ala.; the Second regiment is to go to
South Dakota to relieve the Eighth
regiment, with headquarters at Fort
Meade, and the Ninth is to be distrib-

T Maria Teresa Floats To—day.

5 Washington Sept. 19.—Captain Crow-
ninshield, acting secretary of the
navy, has received a cable message
from COmmodore Watson, at Guanta-
namo stat‘ingthat the wreckers have
recovered ten six-inch guns from the
Spanish flagship Marla. Teresaand
placed them on the collier Leonidas.
The commodore says it is expected the

Spanish ship will be floated to-day and

he will start for home on Tuesday. He
is urder orders to take command at
the Mare Island navy yard.

The reports received at the navy de-
partment indicate that the big tropical
hurricane which did so much damage
in Barbadoes did not strike near the
United States naval vessels at Caima-
nera, but passed to the eastward.

 

fizz-€3- Champagne for Christening.
Springfield, 111., Sept. 19.—Governor
Tanner has decided that the battleship
Illinois shall‘be christened with cham-
pagne, and sent a letter to that effect
to Mrs. Matilda. B. Carse, Jessie Brown
Hilton and Helen L. Wood, the com-
mittee of the Womon’s Christian Tem-
perance Union, which protested against
christening the battleship with wine.

 

Fastest Balf Mile in Harness,

Philadelphia, Sept. 19.-At the Bel-
mont track, at Harbeth, Saturday,
Star Pointer, in an effort to reduce his
own mark of 1.59 1-4, broke the track
record of 2.03 1-2, held by John R.
Gentry, paced a mile in 1.59 3-4, and,

.incidentally, went the half in 57 1-4,

the fastest half mile ever made by a.
harness horse at either gait.

Shoots Another Son.

Saratoga, N. Y., Sept. 19.—Fred Pick-
nell, an Adirondack guide, while hun-
ting Friday, fired at a distant object
in the woods. He was horrified to find
that he had killed his youngest son
Philip. Last year Picknell killed an-
other son in a similar-manner.

Rough Riders Said to Have Been

SOME STRANGE FEATURES

 

Disputes Already Over \Vhether They
Took Part in the Figlxtat San Juan

.. Bill. Curiosity

Roosevelt Says. The Opposition to
Gen. Miles.

W'ashington, Sept. 20.—-Now that ar-
my officers have had time to digest the
Santiago campaign
some remarkable features. One of these
IS the generosity of the praise bestow-
ed on every hand, and another is the
failure of the reports to accord much
credit to the Rough Riders. It now
appears that General J. F. Kent’s re-
port, which covers, or rather should
cover the operations of the command
under Wood and Roosevelt, contams
not a word in regard to the regiment,
or any part of it, which had a share in
the battle of San Juan hill. .

There is an excellent chance that this
Incident may lead to one of those-post-
bellnm controversies of which history
is full; for already there is a dispute as
to whether the Rough Riders really
took part in the fight at San Juan. En-
couraged by General Kent’s report, the
assertion is now made by persons hos-
tile to the Rough Riders, that that reg-
iment was two miles away_from the
hill. General Kent, it is poxnted out,
has either told the truth by inference
or has been guilty of an oversight that
can hardly be treated as accidental.
The threat is heard also in some quar-
ters that one of the campaign plans

gainst Roosevelt will be an attack on
his command and an attempt to belit-
tle its work in front of Santiago.

Meanwhile Colonel Roosevelt has
made a long report,‘$vhlch, With many
others, is now before Adjutant Gener-
al Corbin. It will be given out soon.
More curiosity is felt here to see this
report than any other yet made pub—
IicThe opposition to General Miles con-
tinues. It is a question how much
longer that officer will stand the an-
tagonism. He is not disposed to renew
the public ventilation of his grievan-
ces, despite some discoveries he has
recently made of Well defined and real-
ly inexplicable enmity towards him.
I But it would not be surprismg to most
observers here if General Miles again
opened fire, this time with heav1er guns
and better ammunition ‘
I No longer ago than Saturday Genera.
Miles encountered additional evidence
of the opposition to his plans, and he
finds that he is destined to enforce his
authority if he expects it to be recog‘
nized. These dispatches have contain—
ed some hint of the material in the pos-
session of Miles’s friends. It is doubt-
ful whether the exact value of it will
be divulged for some weeks, but it is
certain that Congress will institute
such an inquiry as will bring out in of-
ficial form thé documentary evidence
of what the general’s supporters re-
gard as departmental duplicity.

There is even a suggestion of an
“army ring" against Miles, 9. charge
made officially by MajorrG. 'A. Armes,
retired, in letters to the president and
the war department and in conversa-
tion with correspondents here.

The Bridgeport Mystery.

New Haven, Sept. 20.—The New Ha-
ven police department Wes yesterday
searching for a young woman whohas
been missing for some time and who
may have been the victim of the noto-
rious Bridgeport tragedy.

Captain Cowles of the detective force
said: “It is true that we are looking
up a New Haven girl as a possible vic-
tim of the Yellow Mill Pond mystery.
This girl, whose name I cannot dis-
close just now, has been missing be-
tween two and three months. She was
the daughter of New Haven parents
and about 21 years of age.

“We hope to settle the question to«

Albany, Sept. 20.~—State Factory In-
spector O'Leary has issued a circular

 

that this is the time, on account of the
general opening of schools, to enforce
the provisions of the labor law dealing
with emplbyment of young children in
factories and workshops.

He directs special attention to sec-
tion 70, which prohibits the employ-
ment of any child under fourteen years
of age, and section 71, which prohibits
the employment of any children under
sixteen years of age in shop or factory,
unless they can conform to the neces-
sary conditions required of all children
between 14 and 16.

 

Another Cup Challenge.

Chicago, Sept. 20.——It is expected that
a. challenge for the International cup,
won from the Chicago sloop encedor
at Toledo in 1896 by the Canadian
sloop Canada, will issue from the Chi-
cago Yacht Club this fall to the Royal
Canadian Yacht Club.

A syndicate will probably be form-
ed to build and manage the yacht,
headed by Commodore F. W. Morgan.

A MONTAUKA PERMANENT CAMP.

 

Porto
\ Camp Wikoff, Montauk Point. Sept.
19.-——While Camp Wikoff will, within a.
few days, be deserted by all troops with
the exception of guard details, it is still
lintended to maintain the camp as a.
'permanent institution, to serve the
purpose for which it was originally es-
tablished, in the event of emergency
arising.
I It is recognized that the necessity
, for such a camp will exist as long as
there is occasion to keep American
' trops in Cuba and Porto Rico.
In the event of yellow fever gaining
a hold Montauk will serve as an. army
quarantine hospital, and if considera-
ble numbers of troops are sent home
3 from time to time. invalided from the
'effects of the tropical climate, Camp
VVikoff will be used as a place of rest
;and recreation just as it was at the
close of the late campaign.
l Extensive provisions made with this

idea in view will make the camp site
,available’at a few day's notice. All
’that will be necessary Will be to pitch
tents, for the floors will be kept ready
in storage, and the extensive system
I of water supply, with all the pipe lines‘
lsteam pumps and tanks, will be kept
! in condition for impending use.

There are fair roads now running all
over the camp, and the freight yard and
quartermaster’s storehouse will render
easy the question of supplying the
troops with what stores are necessary.
Near the station the engineers have
constructed a permanent road by
which trops can be safely taken from
trans and transported into the heart
of the camp.

In both the general and detention
hospitals commodious frame wards
heated by stoves have been erected, so
that the patients now remaining may
be well sheltered when cold weather
comes and so that the hospitals may
be ready for occupation at any time of
the year.

Major Brown, who has been in charge
of the general hospital from the first,
has been directed to write a history
of the camp, covering all the sanitary
features in full detail. This will be
submitted to the war department with-
In a few days.

Dr. John Ball Dead.

New York, Sept. 19.——The Rev. Dr.
John Hall, pastor of the Fifth Ave-
nue Presbyterian church in this city,
died Saturday morning in Bangor,
county Down, Ireland, in the residence
of his sister.

Dr. Hall was on his annual visit to
Europe. He was suffering from heart
trouble and his health was broken
down. He had been seriously ill for
two days before his death.

His wife and sons, the Rev. “Tom”
Hall, and Professor Robert Hall, were
present at the bedside of Dr. Hall when
he passed away.

He was one of the most famous
preachers in America, and his fame
did not rest upon that foundation of
eloquence which made the names of
his contemporaries~——Beccher, Phillips
Brooks, Talmage and others known
from one end of the country to the oth-
er. \

He was not an orator. He had not
the gifts which sway emotions and
carry hearers along. He was a man of
overpowering personality, of tremen-
dous force. He was a deep thinker and
a ripe scholar.

For thirt years Dr. Hall presided
over the ri est church in Amerifca,
the beloved pastor of a. church that
numbered 2,400 people. "

Dr. Hall’s fame was wonin New
York by the force of his character, his
good work among the members of his
congregation, his many charities and
his interest in public affairs, although
he took no active part in them.

He was a prodigious worker. Where-
:as pastors of other large and rich
[churches in New York have two and
lthree assistants, Dr. Hall did all the
' work connected with his church alone.
I No church in America has contributed
such large sums to missionary, educa-

' tional and charitable work as the Fifth
Avenue Presbyterian church. The vol-
untary contributions averaged $200,000
{a year for many years. It has long
. been a social and religious center, and
'it includes in its membership men of
influence. The aggregate
:wealth of the members of the church
‘has been estimated at $400,000,000.
’ Dr. Hall was born in county Arm-
, agh, Ireland, on July 31, 1829, and had
5 therefore passed his sixty-ninth birth—
day. He was of scotch parentage. His
- father, who was an elder- in the Pres-
byterian church, died when John, the
eldest son, was nineteen years old.

After receiving a classical education
he entered Royal college, Belfast, and
after his graduation he took the course
of the General Assembly’s Theological
College. He was licensed to preach the
gospel in 1849.

.3»? Dreyfus Hiding in South America

London, Sept. 19.—-George R. Sims,
the playwright and journalist, has
long maintained that Dreyfus was
rescued from Devil’s island two years
ago through the instrumentality of a
French syndicate organized to secure
the liberation of prisoners in penal set-
tlements who can pay heavily for their
freedom.

Sims now says: “The real difiicult‘y
the French government is in with re-
gard to Dreyfus is to find him. When
he was rescued from. Devil’s island two
years ago and a substitute-left in his
place, the government officials, terrified
at the outcry which would be raised
In France, accepted the substitute.

Agulnaldo Claims European Backing.

Manila, Sept. 19.—A’-hlghjofficial of
Aguinaldo’s government declares that
the dictator has succeeded in securing
financial backing from a European na-
tion. He declines to say what nation
it is. ‘ .1

According to his talk the insurgc, ts
will be prepared for any contingency,
no matter what the result of the Paris
peace conference may be.

 

Two Battles in Formosa.

Tacoma, Wash, Sept. 19.-—Mail ad—
vices from Japan state that another
formidable rebellion against Japanese
rule has broken out in Formosa, this
time in the southern part of the jg-
land.

Two battles have been fought, one
near Taiohu, the other near Taihoku.
'L‘he tribes were defeated by the Japa-
nese troops and the police. Many were
killed and wounded on each side, but
details are not obtainable.

’e" DEATH or MISS DAVIS. .

 

The Daughter of the Confederacy rouo
Away After Long Illness

Narragansett Pier, R. 1., Sept. 20.—
Miss Virginia Anne Davis, generally
known as “Winnie” Davis, the second
daughter of Jefferson Davis, who was
born in Richmond; Va... on June 27,
1364, died Sunday at the Roc-
kingham hotel, Narragansett Pier, R.
I., where she had been lying ill for
several weeks.

The body of Miss Davis has been em-
balmed, but no preparations will be
made for the funeral until the arrival
of Mrs. Hayes, the married sister of
Miss Davis, who is now on her way
from Colorado and who will reach Nar-

‘ ragansett Pier to-morrow afternoon.

The illness which resulted in the un-
timely death of the “Daughter of the
Confederacy,” as Miss Davis was fond-
ly called throughout the South, was
contracted last July at the reunion of
the Confederate eterans in Atlanta, Ga.

During the parade which followed,
Miss Davis occupied a carriage with
Mrs. “Stonewall” Jackson and Miss
Clare Lewis Gordon.

The day had been an intensely hot
one. A storm came up and rain began
to fall in torrents.

Miss Davis was drenched and at the
conclusion of the parade felt chilled
through. She set out at once for this
place, but was compelled to stop. in
New York to rest for a day, the illness
having gained so rapidly upon her.

Although it had been hoped that the
refreshing breeze of Narragansett Pier
would speedily accomplish her restora-
tion to health, Miss Davis was unable
to retain nourishment, and, despite her
mother’s devotion, the best medical
skill and the most careful nursing, it
soon became apparent that nothing
could stay the hand of death.

IRON AND STEEL TRADE.

 

”Largo Export Sales \Vith Demand on
the Increase.

Philadelphia, Sept. 2.—The outcome
of events during the past week have
imparted renewed strength to the iron
and steel markets, says the Press of
this city. The publication of the con-
dition of furnaces, and of stocks on
hand at the close of the month were
extremely gratifying, showing an in-
crease of production during August at
the rate of 6,300 tons Der week, and a.
reduction in stocks (for the month) of
54,000 tons.

This, in connection with sales for
export estimated at 30,000 tons last
week, and 60,000 to 70,000 tons during
the two previous weeks, has imparted
a stronger undertone and made sellers
less disposed/to accept ‘.new business
unless at very full prices.

Millions of tons of iron areunder con-
tract for forward dellv‘ery, yet the de-
mand is still on, and it only needs the
assent of makers to increase their en-
gagements to a still greater extent.

France Abamfiins Fashoda.

Paris, Sept. 20.—The report is pub-
lished here, but not officially confirm-
ed, that Major Marchand has been or-
dered to retire from Fashoda, leaving
that place in possession of the Anglo-
Egyptian forces.

Le Matin discredits the report, de—
claring that there is no reason why
such a course should be taken.

A telegram receivel from a French
source in Cairo says that there is no
information there confirming Major
Marchand’s occupation of Fashoda.

The French newspapers say that it
appears, according to prixggte informa-
tion, that .the minister of foreign af-
fairs has received no news confirming
the report of the presence of Major
Marchand in Fashoda. .

The rumors circulated by the Eng-
lish press regarding alleged instruc-
tions sent to Marchand are, therefore,
false.

 

Shainakers on Strike.
Brockton, Mass, Sept. 20.—Nearly
fifteen hundred lasters in the big shoe
factories of Brockton, Rockland, Whit-
man, Stoughton, East Weymouth, Mid-
dleboro and Randolph were ordered out
at two o’clock yesterday afternoon, the

manufacturers, with the exception of,

the W. L. Douglass & Company estab-
lishment in this city having declined to
accede to the demand of the lasters for
a new price list, providing for an in-
crease over the old rates. A protracted
fight is expected.

Faulkner to Succeed Gray.

Washington, Sept. 20.—Senator C. J.
Faulkner of West Virginia has been
appointed to the place on the joint
commission to settle disputed questions
between the United States and Cana-
da, made vacant by the retirement of
Senator Gray, when he was transfer-
red to the Paris peace commission.
The tender of the position was made by
the president yesterday, in a personal
interview with Senator Faulkner, and
was accepted by the latter.

A New Leather Company.

with the secretary of state. The com-
pany proposes to manufacture tan.

The instructions to the Spanish peace

They are less precise respecting the '

West Indies, the disposition of which
are virtually settled by the. protocol.

Nevertheless, the commissioners are
definitely instructed regarding .the

upon which points they are to insist
strenuously. '

All the negotiations will ,be subject

The Spanish 9 99 commissioners will
