SPAIN’S llTllST PLAN CUBA MUST PAY THE DEBT n the United States Is Not Satisfied “with the Terms, 'l‘hen Spain Is Prepared to Fight—A Striking Interview. London, Eng, Oct. 5.—-—A special dis- patch from Madrid gives the substance of an interview between a newspaper correspondent and an unnamed mem- ber of the new Spanish Cabinet, in .which the latter is quoted as saying Premier Sagasta will carry out the Cuban reforms proposed by Marshal Martinez de Campos ten years ago, in- cluding granting autonomy to Cuba on condition Cuba takes over the Cuban debt, including the war debt, and ac- cepts Spain’ s custOms tariff. The new Cabinet Minister is said to have remarked that Premier Sagasta will not consent to a customs union be- tween the United States and Cuba, and he is said to have added that if the former is not satisfied Spain is. pre- pared to fight, as the Spanish NaVy is regarded as equal in strength with the navy of the United States. Further, if necessary, Spain, according to the Cabinet Minister interviewed, will haVe recourse to privateering. In conclusion, the new Minister is al- leged to have said it is improbable Spain will consent to recognize the in- surgent debt;.but Premier Sagasta will not prevent the new J Cuban Govern- ment from dealing with it. . TRAIN LOAD'OF GOLD. Output of Colorado ,Mines to Be Sent East in One Consignment. :Colorado Springs, 001., Oct. 5.—A novel scheme for handling the gold output of the Cripple Creek mines will be put into use by the operators in that district. The‘plan is to set aside the output for one month, take the bullion there- from and Ship it to the United States Mint at Philadelphia in one single con- signment. A special trainvwill be secured for the purpose of transporting it, the bullion will be placed in the charge of some express companies which can guarantee its safety, and all necessary precautions taken to prevent accident or theft while the consignment is in transit. . As the present output of Cripple *Creek is over a million dollars per month,‘there will be one of the largest shipments of gold bullion that has ever crossed the continent.

British Opinion is that Native American Vote Doesn’t Count. London, : Oct. 5.—The newspapers here generally pay much attention to the New York political campaign, pub— lishing long articles, dispatches and editorials on the subject. I The Globe saysz' “Judging from the Times’ dispatch ’ Henry George will be the next Mayor. The Americans do not exceed a quar- ter of the whole population, and the European Anarchists, Socialists, Ital-V ians, Poles, Hungarians and Russians,“ all the very lowest of_ their race, will support the man whose childish econo- mics and wild theories are derided in every capital'of Europe! These being the people who sway public opinion, it is the height of ' absurdity to rave about blood being thicker than water.” The Pall Mall Gazette’s article, writ- ten by an American, concludes with stating that Tammany will win. Four Fishermen Drowned. Long- Branch, N. J., Oct. 5.—Four fishermen were drowned here yester- day morning, and three others in the capsized boat narrowly escaped. The high surf threw the bow of the boat in the air and then twisted it over. The boat was only a hundred yards from the shore. Fifty persons on the beach, stricken into stone, beheld the tragedy, saw them buffeted hither and thither by' the great waves, saw them disappear, reappear on the crest of a billow and then suddenly slip out of sight for good and all. The men were employes of Hennessy Bros, pound fishermen at North Long Branch. The bodies of the drowned men have not been recovered, and there is a pos- sibility that they never will be, for a very high sea is running. Yellow Fever Spreading. 6 New Orleans, Oct. 5.—It is generally admitted in NeW' Orleans that the yel— low fever is spreading, and that the disease will have a very depressing ef- fect on commerce. Dr- Joseph Holt, formerly president of the Board of Health, says the scourge will mean a loss of $25,000,000 to the city. , -—-- 1 II A Britain to Aid Spain.

DEBS COLOlers DISCOURKGED. Worked' Out the Theory All Right. but the Scheme Did Not'Succeed. ‘ Reading, Pa., Oct. 5.—-The .six Read- ing men who belonged to the new labor colony on the Debs plan at' Kepner, Schuylkill County, returned home yes- terday, not at all pleased with the first season’ 5 experience. It is doubtful whetherthey will return. The farm is a good one of 312 acres, 125 being under cultivation. children were on the farm all Summer. The‘colony’s plan to pay off $1,400 of the debt failed, as the installments promised were not forthcoming. The colony inn could not be completed. Nearly every member of the colony has returned home for the Winter. A few remain to look after the property. Many have time checks given for labor rendered which have not been re-‘ deemed. Many took potatoes for their checks. The men were to get 15 cents an hour for labor performed, but this could not be carried out.. The men say such a. colony can be 3 ~ success only if started without debt. This farm is in every way good, but the debt was a dead weight. A Jersey City man has promised substantial aid for next season. The colonists have several tons of hay stacked or housed. The colony idea is not very assuring to those who have most experience. They say there should be several industiies on the farm to. give employment to those who cannot find work in the fields. LOW’S RESIGNATION HELD. A Committee Will Report on it After Election. New York, Oct. 5.——Seth Low is 3111‘; president of Columbia University. Thir- is the outcome of the meeting of the trustees of Columbia University, held yesterday afternoon ”at the office of John McL. Nash, treasurer of the in- stitution, at 67 Wall street.

Scher— '1nerhorn, their chairman, to be consid- ered and reported on at the next 1egu- lar meeting on Nov. 15. Mr. Low's resignation read as fol- lows: “As I have felt constrained by a sense of public duty to accept a nomi- nation for‘ Mayor of the City of New York at the hands of the Citizens’ Union, I feel it to be my duty to the university to place in your hands, for such action as you may See fit to take, my resignation as president of the uni-. versity. I need not say that nothing but adeep sense of the imperative nature of the call to public duty would have led me to accept the nomination. Re- spectfully, “SETH LOW. ” The meeting at which this document was discussed was, of course, private. Cit John B. Pine, who is clerk of the board, said afterward there was very little discussion on the matter The _ following resolution was unanimously adopted: “Resolved, That the resignation of the president be referred to a select committee of five, to be appointed by the chair, of which the chairman Shall be a. member, to consider and report at the next meeting of the trustees as to what action should be- taken in refer- ence thereto, with their recommenda- tions.” Ex-Senator McMillan Dead.

H. Robinson, who a few years ago left this city with an inheritance of $40,000, is now a fugitive from justice. He located in Middleport, near Niagara Falls, and engaged in business, but his money was rapidly dissipated by fast living. In June last a confectionery store in the village was robbed of $77, which was taken from the till. The crime was traced to Robinson, who confessed. He was not punished, however, on account of his previous good character, and be- cause the money was restored by his friends. Recently he was caught in the act of robbing the till in Holland Bros.' store. A warrant was issued for him, but he fled and, his whereabouts are not known. Y. P. S. C. E. State Convention.
