Further News from the Scene of Hostilitie,
I'm Nicaragua.
New YoRK, May 15-At the offices OF
the Nicaragua Coal Company news has
been received from the seat of revolu.
tion in Nicaragua. The canal company
owns a private telegraph line from Grey,
town on the gulf coast, to Fort San Carlos,
on Lake Nicaragua, where it connects with
the government line to San Juan del Sur,
which connects with the City of Mexico
over which line all communications re
ceived here must come.
Two battles fought near Masaya have re
suited in favor of the revOlutionists, whost
superior artillery caused the government
troops heavy losses.
San Juan del Sur is known to be in the
hands of the revolutionists and it is sup
posed that the entire country traversed by
the San Juan river and the Nicaragua
canal is also held by the insurgents. But
even if it were not there would be mo chance
of sending news out by way of San Juar
del Sur without having it revised by th'
reyolutionists, except to send it south by
water TO Port Limon in Costa Rica, where
it would catch one of the Royal Mail steam
eTs. This would necessitate a delay of seye
raj days.
Ex-senator Warner Miller has beer
called out of the city on business up the
state, and left without apprehension ol
any danger to the interests of the canal
whatever might be the state of affairs il
the country.

WASHINGTON, May 15.-The. announce
ment comes from indianapolis that Samuel
S. Morse, the new consul general to Paris,
has appointed Clyde Shropshire, of Georgia,
vice consul general in place of R. NJ.
Hooper, who has been connected with the
Office ever since the war. The determine
tion of Mr. Morse in this matter was await
ed with some anxiety by those interested.
A considerable pressure was brought to
have Mr. Hooper retained, and on the other
hand there WAS a formidable movement to
secure new man, Mr. Shropshire is said
to be eminently well qualified for the po
sition, having been a practicing lawyer in
Paris for several years.

WASHINGTON, May 15.-It is stated at
the pension office that up to last Thursday
the pension examiners now in Norfolk, Va,
investigating the claims filed by Pension
Attorney Drewry had completed fourteen
cases, all of which had been found to be
irregular or fraudulent. The pension Of
ficials are searching the claims filed by
Drewry which had been allowed and so far
1856 have been found and forwarded to the
examiners at Norfolk. Nc computation of
Bhe amounts paid on these claims have
been made, but as all of them were filed
under the act of June 81, 1890, which al
lows S12 per month as the maximum rate
it is probable that the average will fall be-
low 5000 each. Mr.. Drewry is now serving
a one year term in Jail for fraudulent
transactions in pension cases.

New YoRK, May 15.-With a bullet
through her neck, Mary Sexton, 10 years
old, was found dead in a tenement house
here, having probably been shot by her
lover, William Flannery, 80 years old, and
a truck driver, with whom she had been
living a month or more. Flannery was
going to desert her, when they quarreled
and he shot her, the police believe. The
fellow at once gave himself up, but denies
that he shot the girl
He declares that quarrel arose between
them, and she got revolver and shot him
through the left forearm Then she killed
herself. In proof of his story he showed
his left arm, which was bleeding from the
bullet wound But the police think they
had struggle, during which Flannery
drew his revolver and shot her He had
thrown up his left arm to push her back
from him and the bullet went through his
forearm and then lodged in her neck.

SAYS THE AGENTS ARE TO BLAME.


DENVER, Col, May 15.-Governor Waite
has transmitted communication to Presi-
dent Cleveland relating to the recent In
dian troubles in which he recites in very
plain language the causes that have led
to the recent outbreaks and directly charges
the Indian agents with negligence and in
competency: He says:
"From the best information l can get
the outbreak in New Mexico was the re
suit of abuse and insult by drunken and
renegade Indians. The periodical troubles
fin Colorado result from the fact that the
Indians are allowed by the United States
Indian agents to wander away from their
reservation"
Governor Waite also says that the IN
dians as we'll as the government are being
systematically robbed by some of the
agents, and this, in his opinion, accounts
for all the trouble that has arisen.

THE SOLDIERS MONUMENT.
Nearly Three Hundred Dollars Added ia
the Fund.

Nearly Three Hundred Dollars Added to
the Fund.
During the past few weeks but little has
been published concerning the work Of
raising subscriptions for the SoldierS Monu-
ment fund, yet the work has been progressing
very favorably and nearly three hundred
dollars have been added to the fund since the
last official statement was announced, maxi
ing the total now in hand nearly eight
hundred dollars.
The subscriptions recently added are the
last six published in the table below among
them being the handsome contribution of $75
from the Women's Relief Corps, which
organization has elected Mr. John Watson to
represent it at the meetings of the joint
committee
This is a sentiment in favor of urging the
committee to proceed to have the foundation
for the monument laid at once. The seasons
given are that it will be cheaper to have that
part Of the work done before the site selected
is paved and that much labor and time will
be saved when the time to put up the monu-
ment arrives

REPUBLICAN PLATFORM FOR 1896
tho acre.

The following was handed to the HER,
AID by an ardent republican as the basis
for the republican platform for 1896:
The representatives of the republican
party of the United States. in conven-
ton assembled, present the following
declaration of principles:
PROFESSIONALLY re- affirm the Amer
lean principle of protection, and pledge
ourselves to the extension of this prin-
ciple to protect directly the labor of the
country by restricting immigration by
placing a tax on all foreigners landing
in the United States, said tax to be not
less than $3.50; that the time Of residence
in the United States for citizenship
should be not less than ten years.
INCREASED ISSUE OF MONEY We af
firm that the money of the United States
should consist Of gold, silver and paper,
and should be issued by the general
government only, the coinage of gold
and silver to be free and unlimited at a
ratio of l6 to l, and that paper money
be issued IN payment for services rem
dered the United States, all money to
circulate at par. with each other, and a
full legal tender for all public and pri-
vats debts. The issue of paper money
to be regulated SO as to keep the vol
ume Of paper at fixed and definite sum
per capita.
The POSTAL SERvIoE:--The useful
ness of the postal service should be in
creased by the government ownership of
the telegraph lines and express service
of the United States, and the opera ton
of the same by the government on the
same principle as the postal service.
LAND:-Th ownership of land SHOULD
be limited to GAO acres to uen report ~
that would restrict the alienation of land
in large amount to any individual or
corporation to the end that the land now
owned by individuals and corporations
would in time be distributed among the
people for settlement and cultivation in
stead Of for speculation and the foster
ing of land -lord-ism, and nonresident
aliens be prohibited from owning land
in the United States.
TAXATION: TIN order that the burden
of taxation should be uniform, we favor
a tax on all incomes oyer $1,000 per an
mum; also a tax on all inheritances.
CIVIL SERvICE:-W We affirm that all
arpointive offices shall be filled by those
who have passed an examination, there
fore without regard to their political
affiliations
U. s. SENATORS The reasons for
electing U. S. senators by state repre-
ssntatlyes having passed, and that sys-
tenn being un-American, we affirm that
senators should be elected by the people.
SOLDIERS PENSIONS: We pledge anew
to the veterans of the republic watch
full care and recognition of their claims
upon grateful people.

fact the command is now compelled to
look after It's own safety.
No traces of the Carlin party were
found by those who got down on the
other side This does not mean that all
the efforts to find the supposed lost men
will be given up, Charles FELTON,, the
well known prospector, was sent for
from the post last night, and this morn
ing was telephoned to come out for con
sultation as to other means of relief.
II is almost certain that efforts will
be made to get into the country from
other directions, and it is possible that
FELTON, and Prospector Billy Gormeley
will make the attempt 1t has become
a re roguized fact, however, that the
present expedition Is failure, and that
Young CarIin and his friends, if alive,
must be rescued in some other manner
or left to take their chances.
The following was received from Fort
Missoula late tonight: Relief party
from Fort Missoula in search Of the Car
lin bunting party has been recalled and
all search abandoned. A man named
Larson, living near Lo Lo, camped with
the hunting party about three weeks
ago on the Middle Fork Of the Clear
water, They vera with a couple of
French boys who have prospect there
and are well supplied with food for the
winter, having 500 pounds of flour and
plenty of meat The relief party from
the fort can only return by way of the
trail, and all transportation will be left
where it is until spring, as it is impos
sible to get it out this winter.
Major McKibbin, the officer il charge
at Fort NIissoula, has just advised your
correspondent that although Larson,
who claims to have seen the Carlin party,
says that Carlin and his friends are well
supplied to winter in the Clearwater
country, every effort will be made to
find them. No immediate action, how
ever, will be taken until further advices
are received from General Carlin.
A member of the relief party said to-
night it was too early to again make an
attempt, as the snow is too soft for snow
shoe travel, the only way in which it is
now hoped to reach Carlin and his
friends.

WASHINGTON, November II, 1898.
THIS has been quite as unpleasant a
week in administration circles as was
that which followed the terrible condem-
nation of the democratic party and it's
methods at the polls. Public opinion
has made itself heard by every member
OF this administration, which is the first,
and will doubtless be the last, to attempt
to drag partisan politics into the foreign
policy of the United States. Heretofore
it has been the proud boast OF men of all
political parties that however much
Americans might differ about home af-
fairs politics were always dropped and
they all became simply Americans when
ever anything came up relating to
American interests abroad or to our
dealings with foreign nations. But Mr.,
Cleveland and his renegade Secretary
Of state have made a startling change, a
change involving the use Of the power
OF the United States to overthrow the

THE suit of Paul CASTOR against L.
H. Letterman ct al. over the ground on
which the Pullman agricultural college
buildings stand has been amicably set
tied, says the Review, Mr.. CASTOR, Mr..
Letterman and two other gentlemen
owned Y acres of land at Pullman in
equal shares, and Mr.. Letterman held
the land in trust. The citizens of Pull
man donated 204 acres of land to the ag-
ricultural college. On the tract donated,
however, there was not suitable site
for the buildings, so Mr. Letterman
conveyed l6 acres Of the ~ acre tract
which be held in trust. Mr., CASTOR
thersupon brought suit for division Of
the Y acres and for a personal iudg-
ment against Mr.. Letterman for the val
ue Of his interest in the 16 acre tract
which had been decided to the state by
Mr.. Letterman. The suit was COM
menced in the superior court of Whit
man county, and was subsequently trans.
ferred to the United States court. Mr..
Castor, who is now in this city, is much
pleased over the settlement of the affair,
and says all interests will work IN per-
feet harmony hereafter for the success
OF the college.

The question of special session OF
the state legislature is receiving much
discussion, and many potent reaoono are
advanced on each side. If the body
would get down to work Immediately on
being convened there is not doubt but
that their efforts would have beneficial
effect over the state, but there is every
danger that it would resolve itself into
gigantic senatorial lottery, and all
other questions would pale into insig-
nifcance before the election of senator.
The state had better have but one rep
resentativs in the o. S. senate than to
spend weeks, and thousands of dollars,
in another unsuccessful wrangle. If the
business that would come before the leg
islature could be attended to with dis
patch, and the election of senator be
made secondary, the state would be
greatly benefited by az extra session.
