LED TO VICTORY BY A YANKEE
Palacio's Troops Drive Back With Slaush-
ter an Attacking Force.


CARACAS, VENEZUELA, May 10-An
engagement has been fought few miles
south of Los Taques, between 400 Govern
ment troops and $50 insurgents mounted on
mustangs and armed with lances. The Gov
ernment troops were escorting party of
engineers to repair the roads to La Victoria.
1t was the purpose of the insurgents to
drive Palacio's troops back to Los Teques,
but after fighting all day Saturday the lat
ter still held their ground.
An assault was made at noon, the revolu-
tionists riding as near as possible. They
then suddenly dashed from their ponies and
flew up the steep ascent, but were driven
back The insurgents left nearly one-third
of their force dead and dying on the field.
The Government troops sustained loss of
only 25 men killed and 13 injured. The
hospital tent is full of insurgent wounded.
The Government troops were under COM
mand of an American, who was sent away
from West Point before his term of study
was completed for acts of insubordination.

COUNTRY PRoDUCE-Jobbing prices
The Monday sales of creamery butter at
Elgin developed a stronger feeling than was
anticipated, and markets were a shade
higher than they were the previous Mon
day. Country butter is dull and slow,
though receipts are light. Sales of eggs
were reported yesterday at 1415c per dozen
in job lots, but choice stock is held at 15c.
The quality of new cheese offered so far is
for the most part low and movement is
sluggish. Poultry is still in short supply,
but prices fail to advance. Receipts of
Southern vegetables have been light the
past few days and demand is also light, with
prices tending to lower level. The quality
of strawberries offered is steadily improv-
ing, and demand is sufficient to absorb all
good stock at prices quoted. Tropical fruits
are in liZhter supply and better demand this
week than last. Banana trade was demoral-
lied last week owing to large receipts, the
supply, and tone of markets is better.
Choice oranges and lemons are also f1rrner.
Pineapples are in large supply and lower
than they have been any time this season.

WAsHINGroN, April 5-The silver debate
called out by Mr.. Morgan's resolution in the
senate had quite a breezy snap to II, and
though the resolutions 20 upon the calendar
they are liable to be called up and the dis
cussion renewed by Mr.. Wolcott tomorrow
Mr. Teller and others suggested that the ques-
tion should not be downed, and Mr.. Sherman
in vigorous little speech, denied that he had
any intention of suppressng the debate. The
entire day was occupied by the discussion to
the exclusion OF the calendar and the appro-
priation bills, which would havo the floor but
for senatorial courtesy. The house passed tho
Chinese exclusion act by vote of l79 to 40,
and also bill repeating the law requiring
steamers on the lakes, bays or sounds of the
United States to be provided with line carry
ing projectiles and the means of propelling
them. General debate on the free wool bill
was closed by Mr.. Springer, who made his
first appearance on the floor for six weeks,
He received quite an ovation. Owing to Mr..
SprinSers physical condition, Mr.. 0'Brl.ln, of
Nebraska, read his remarks. The bill was
then debated under the i've minute rule for
two hours and the house adjourned.

TACOMA, N. H., April 5.-George E.
Wiggin, aged 45, brutally murdered his
wife Prusilla at the Meredith passenger
station, where the latter, accompanied
by 10-year-old daughter, was waiting
to take a train to this city. Wiggin
went from Lakeport to lay in wait for
his wife, knowing that she was to take
the train. On her appearance he at once
attacked her with dagger, stabbing
her in twenty places. The couple had
not lived together for two years, and
Mrs. Wiggin had made application for
divorce. When the train arrived the
murderer was sitting beside the body of
his victim, and at once surrendered.

BRIDGES CRUSHED.
Very Heavy Freshets in the Sal
mon River.
CAUSED BY A BROKEN MILL DAM

Heavy Railroad Structures Carried
Away on the Ice and Ground to
Splinters = Traffic Seriously De-
Iayed-No Loss of Life Reported
as Yet.
MONTREAL, April 5.-Salmon River,
in Huntington county, overfowed its
banks and inundated the village of
Dundee. Then the ice began to break
up in the river, and with tremendous
rush the channel was forced open and
huge masses of ice came down, carrying
the steamer Grenada to mile below
Dundee. Next came the large iron
highway bridge from Fort Covington,
N. Y, mile above Dundee, floating on
top of the ice and rushing along at a
great rate of speed. This was followed
in the same manner by the Grand
Trunk railway bridge, from near the
same place, and the fiume of one of the
Fort Covington miles. These were fol-
lowed by masses of lumber and debris
from the bridge, trees, etc.
The large number of boat houses along
the banks of the river were either car
ried away or ground to bits. The
cause of the flood was the breaking
away of Meyers mill dam near Fort
Covington. Had the dam just above
Meyers dam broken, rs was feared, the
damage would have been much greater.
All traffic on the Grand Trunk between
Fort Covington and Massena is sus-
pended for the present.
The Canadian Pacific railway bridge
across the Yamaska river, on the old
Southeastern branch line, eleven miles
east of Sorrell, was carried away by the
ice jam. The ice crushed to pieces the
ice piers above the bridge and swept
the structure to pieces.

IN THE KEYSTONE STATE.
Somerset County Visited by a Gallo
Which Docs Much Damage.


GREENsBURG, Pa, April ga ter
rific wind, hail and rain storm, accom-
panied by lightning, passed over the
southern part of Westmoreland county,
doing great damage.
AT Scottdale, Everson and Browns
town the wind was very severe, blowing
down and unrooting buildings in all
parts of the town. The Scottdale roll
ing mill was unroofed and the interior
badly wrecked by falling timbers, while
the jackson house, Henry Reeds house
and the Keaghy residence were badly
damaged.
A large two story frame building at
Heminger's Mills, near Scottdale, was
blown down and two of Mr.. Heminger's
daughters were carried about two hun
dred feet, but escaped injury. In all
parts of the above mentioned towns there
is scarcely house in which the win
dows and doors are not blown in or
broken by the hail, which fell to the
depth of several inches. For time the
people We're panic stricken, and fled to
the Easements Of houses. Many persons
were slightly injured by the broken
glass and flying debris, but no fatalities
are reported. The loss to property can
not be estimated at present.

learned that julius Macarthur, who
killed Deputy Sheriff Charles II. Smith,
of New Hampshire, May Q last, while
resisting arrest for stealing horse, and
who escaped from the Jail in this city
Jan. II, is none other than John Arthur
Simpson, alias George Simpson, alias
George A. Stillwell, formerly of Fred
ericton, N. B., once Baptist minister,
later burglar, horse thief, incendiary,
forger, bigamist and finally muir
derer. His chief seat of operations for

DYNAMITERs DETECTED.
s'hey Were About to Blow Up the
Spanish Chamber of Deputies.

Spanish Chamber of Deputies.
MADRID, April 4.-Great excitement
was caused here yesterday by the dis
covery of an anarchist plot to blow up
the chamber Of deputies. The leaders
of the conspirators arrived here in the
past month. The civil governor has re-
ceived information that two foreign
anarchists were conspiring with num-
ber of Spanish anarchists to blow up the
public buildings and the suspects were
accordingly watched.
The project against the chamber Of
deputies was arranged to come off on
Saturday, Frenchman named Deval
and Portuguese named Feirriera in
tending to conceal a couple of bombs
under the seats in the public library
ploded. Feirriera, however was taken
i'll and the attempt was postponed until
yesterday.
AT 4p. m. both conspirators left their
house, each carrying under his arm a
small parcel of the shape Of u bottle
wrapped in newspaper. The police
shadowed them and kept them in sight
until they reached the Cortes building,
where both were seen to place them
selI es before the door leading to the
chamber of deputies by which the presi-
dent of the chamber and Premier Cam
ovas del Castillo usually enter.
The police then decided that it was
time to act, and they at once proceeded
to arrest the plotters. The Frenchman,
a man of herculean strength, fought
hard, but was finally knocked down and
overpowered. Both men were imme-
diately handcuffed. When searched
they were found to have in their posses
sion dynamite enough to blow up the
whole cortes.

TWO NOTED BALTIMoREANs.
General Singleton and Washington
Booth Join the Silent Majority.

BALTIMORE, April 5.-General James
w. Singleton, died here yesterday af
ternoon at his daughters residence after
an illness of six weeks resulting from
old age, in his s2d year.
General Singleton was an ex-congress-
man, once president of the st. Louis and
Wabash railroad and in his day one of
the most extensive owners of fine horses
in the country. He was son of General
James Singleton, of the war of 1912,
and was born near Winchester, Va. He
studied medicine and began the prac-
tice of it in Illinois, but later gave 1t up
and studied law, at which he was EN-
inently successful, encountering such
lawyers rs Abraham Lincoln, Douglass
Browning, Justin and Butterfeld. He
gave up law at the outbreak of the war
on account of the rigor of the oaths re-
quired. In 1865 President Lincoln, de
sirous of reaching the southern leaders
and bringing about peace, intrusted
General Singleton with a mission to
Richmond, whittier he went four times
and conferred with Jefferson Davis and
others.
Washington Booth died at his resi-
dcnce in this city, aged 10. Mr.. Booth
was for twenty years in business in
Lima, Peru. He was an old line Whig
in ante-war times, but became Repub-
lican, and after the close of the war fol
the union was elected president of the
Union club. In 1878 he was appointed
collector of the port of Baltimore by
President Grant, and after serving
nearly three years in that position re-
signed in August, 1886, on account of ill
health. He held official positions in a
number Of business enterprises, and was
also resident consul for Chile at Balti.
