TIE MISSING NEWSPAPER CoRREsPoypp.r
1t If almost certain that Mr.. Ralph Keeler. cor
respondent OF the New York Tribune, has been
murdered while on his way from Santiago de
Cuba to ManzanillO. The unfortunate gentle
man left the Office of Mr.. Young. the American
consul, with the intention of taking passage 10
havana. A son Of Captain Braine saw him on
the Spanish steamer. and saluted him az he
passed the JuStata. When the Spanish steamer
arrived at Manzanillo Mr.. Kelley was missing
and hi luggage was dellseTsd over to the con-
sui. In all probability the mystery OF his dis
appearance will remain unexplained, though
there can be little doubt about the manner o.
bis taking OFF. The matter is one which needs
explanation and clearing up, and we hope the
Washington authorities will insis. on a M.
Is list OF passen gers kept on all the steamboats

TIE GREAT RAILROAD STRIKR-No Sicas Of
NuemeRt-On Sunday night some OF the
strikers broke the gauges OF ali the locomo ives
OF the Jehersonville and indianapolis railroad
at indianapolis, and yesterday only two of them
could be prepared for service. The exhibition
OF the force of the law at any point compels the
strikers into quiet, bat il is impossible to pro-
tect the lines through the hun drsds of miles OF
country over which the movement extends. At
Dennison, Ohio, militia company restored
tranquility yesterday, and trains have since
men passed that point without interruptiou.
Late dispatches from Indianapolis saw that
there was no material alter alton in the coz
diton of affairs yesterday. BY the eNertions OF
he master mechanics, assisted by other yolun-
teers, Jew trains were run over the lines a.
tected by the strike, but they were not numer-
Gus enough TO afford any positive or satisfactory
relief rom the embargo which the movement
las laid upon travel and transportation. The
engineers give no indication of Welding and
there IS no evidence Of any advance from either
side TOW ard an agreement between the railroad
companies ara their employees.
Bush. who shot Engineer Vance night before
ast, 10 Indianapolis, has been committed 10 iail
In defsult of $40 coo bail.
The members OF the Brotherhood of Fngi.
neers IN Chicago have passed resol utions that
they are not disposed TO submit to auy reduc-
ton Of the wages they were receiving prior 70
the LIST, as that rate was low enough, though it
gave general satisfaction. They also rendered
their sympathy, and promised their support TO
all engineers now opposing, or who NAV here
after oppose, any reduction of their wages.
