At Their OH Tricks.

A few weeks ago. about the time
the extra session of Congress was call
ed, it was given out that Hoke Smith
and renegade L.ochren had abandoned
their war on the veterans. The HER
AID gave them due credit, but had
some very decided misgivings as to
the sincerity of the pair A few days
later we had information, not official,
but strictly authentic, that it was on
ly blind to prevent Congressional
investigation. 1t now appears that
Judas Iscariot was gentleman COM
pared to I.ochren, who has added
the basest hypocrisy to his treason, i'll
trying to cover his sku.ldugery by an
outward senblance of regard for the
men whom he has so basely betrayed.
No one expected anything better from
Hocus- pocus, but it seems they are
birds of feather and that Lochren all
the time was sneakingly suspending
the pensions of honest men, giving
them no notice until they went to draw
their pittarce, when they found the
voucher which this great Government
of ours had given them to be of no
more value than SO much blank paper.
The pension rolls are being ''purg-
ed" and war-worn veterans are find
ing out that the Democratic Commits
sioner of Pensions does not intend that
they shall fare any better than the
wage-earners in mill and mine-not
now in mills or mines, but where they
were year ago.
Winter is coming on, and the men,
who in the prime of life went forth to
preserve the Nation, can now, as far
as Lochren is concerned, go lover the
hill to the poor house" or just starve
and freeze; to him it matters not which

the Democratic party as evidenced by
its sweeping description of that organ
ization:
THE Democratic party, for its
breadth, is the most remarkable party
extant. In short, you can be Demo
crat nowadays without interfering
with either your politics, religion, or
code of morals. You can be in favor
Of free silver and be opposed to free
silver and be a simonpure Democrat;
you can be in favor of protection and
in favor of free trade and be Demo
crat; you can favor tariff for revenue
only and tariff for protection and be
Democrat; You can favor binetallism
and monometallisin and be a Demo
crat; you can favor an income tax and
oppose an income tax and be Demo
crat; you can favor minority rule and
majority rule and be a Democrat;
you can join Republican minority to
defeat Democratic majority and be
Democrat; you can can be opposed to
the issuance Of more bonds, and favor
such issuance and be Democrat; you
can be in favor Of national banks or
opposed to national banks and be
Democrat; you can believe in civil ser
vice, or that to the victor belongs the
spoils, and be Democrat; you can be
thinking man or an unthinking man
and be a Democrat-the less you
think however, the better modern
Democrat you are. The Democrat

all of these positions without a vigor-

Honduras Offers TN Insult to the Stars and

New York, Nov. IA La Liberata-

fired upon the American flag yesterday.
BY the alleged orders of President Vas

the commissioner of the port of ANA

after the Pacific mail steamship Costa
Rica, flying the stars and stripes, as she
steamed away, because she refused to

The passenger about whom the
trouble arose is Policarpo Bonilla. who
recently led the revolution in Hondu-

Bonilla had decided to leave Nicara-

other persons were his fellow passengers.
They arrived yesterday at Amapala, a
port of entry of Honduras on the Pa

mander of the Port Villala demanded
that Captain Dow should surrender
Bonilla.
When the request was refused a
threat was made to sink the ship, and it
was asserted that President Vasquez
had given strict orders to that effect.
The vessel suddenly sailed ont of the
harbor with Bonilla ON board. The

that the City of Panama of the same
line. lying in the harbor, was injured,
as the firing continued for some time.

DISASTER IN SPAIN.

MADRID, Nov. 6.-The terrible dis
aster which has wrecked the shore of
Santander. destroyed the port Of San

of lives has sent a thrill of horror
throughout Spain.
Telegraphic communication with tho
death and fre-stricken locality has not

concerning the horrible calamity reach
here in driblets AMI by roundabout
way, such as dispatches from outlying
towns.
1t seems that the steamer Cabo

fighting the flames. Thousands Of
people gathered on the quay and
thronged the adjacent street to watch
the battle ON the fire. The 20 cases OF
dynamite indicated in the manifest was
removed and thus the fire fighters
thought they had removed all elements
of danger.
A tug crowded with fremen was then
roped to the burning ship, and she was
towed out into the bay to prevent the
rickety buildings along the quay from
becoming ignited. Suddenly. as the
vessel and tug drifted, the boilers let
go, followed by a more terrific explo-
sion. A black smoke hung for n second
over the burning wreck, and then came
awful death to hundreds of the specta-
tors from the wreck of buildings, flying
iron and missiles from the ship. The
men on the tug were lost forever.
Then from the flying fire brands of
the wreck there burst out fires all over
the city, destroying building after build
ing, the people being too terrified to
fight the flames. For hours people
rushed backward ard forward, insane
from fright, stumbling over the dead
bodies which lay blackened beyond
recognition i'll the streets. Finally
word was sent to neighboring cities and
aid secured.
One man was killed over mile away
and the anchor was blown 800 yards.
A complete estimate of the number
killed cannot be obtained. although
there were hundreds who lost their
lives.
