New York, April Ga Panama special

News Of the signal defeat OF the govern
ment troops near Tegucigalpa, Honduras,

This report was confirmed In advices
brought later by the officers of the steamer
Barracouta. who added the information
| that the revolutionists had finally tri-
umphed, and that Pollicarpo Borila had
bsen proclaimed provisional president Of tho
republic.
The fret reports which reached here gave
an account of tremendous fighting near
| Tegucigalpa, which resulted favorably to
the revolutionists. Bonilln's forces were
massed around the capital. All their avail
ablo forces were brought up.
Strong detachments we're held In reser ve
while tho main body of troops were sent
forward to attack the position held by the
government army, which was defending
the city under the command of Gen. Vas.
quez.
Gen. Terrenca Sierra led the advance
upon the government position. His troops
pushed forward with great bravery, but
their assault was resisted With courage
and determination equal to their own.
For more than two hours the battle ragged
without apparent advantage to either side
Then the rovolutionists decided upon boil
der and more decisive move. Their lines
seemed to waver for a MON Mt, and they
dashed forward in solid ranks They fell
upon the government army with terrific
force, and battered 1t III murderous
fashion.
With grim determination, Gen. Vasquez' $
troops held their ground for n short time
Then came n vigorous dash against the
centre of the government lines. 1t was Il
daring and resstless assault.
The revolutionary troops broke through
the government lines in the centre, cutting
the defending army into two forces, aud
spreading Generalization and terror among
the troops From that moment the battle
was won for Bouills's army. The govern
ment forces were routed. and fed in all di-
rect!ops.
But the victory had not been won with
lutionary troops was great, and Gen. Sierra,
Bonilies chief of staff, was himself badly
wounded.
Bonilla's victorious soldiers lost no time
in pursuing the fleeing enemy. The fugi-
tives were slaughtered without mercy.
Scores are reported to have been killed
while flesng for safety. Gen. Vasquez him
self fed toward Nallannsra, leaving Bonilla
a clear road on which to march to Teguci-
galpa
A fter tho great victory Bonille marched
at the head of his victorious army into
Tegucigalpa. He was received with great
entbu siasm, according to the report brought
by tho Barracuda, and without opposition
was proclaimed provisional president OF the

COLUMBIAN HOTELS COLLAPSE.
EIimsy Structures for Worlds Fair Uses
GoDown without Warning.

Go Down without Warning.
CHICAGO, April s.---Two worlds fair ho-
tel buildings and another structure intended
for a panorama have collapsed within 81
hours OF each other, but owing to fortunate
circumstauc es there Is no death list.
The Clarkdale, a flimsy hotel structure
intended for worlds fair purposes went to
pieces last last night; at midnight an othor
three.story hotel, the Plymouth, toppled
over and shortly after noon panorama
building at 9th street and Stony Island
avenue fell to the ground.
The Plymouth was three-story struc-
ture Mt Seventy second street and Stoney
Islaud avenue. 1t was one one Of the larg
est in that district aud was almost complst-
ed. In its fall it crushed onestory
structure which was to be used for restau-
rant purposes and would have been ready
for occupancy in few days.
Both buildings were owned by William
Searls OF Plymouth, Ind, and were value
at $50, coo. The slight wind that blow at
midnight was cause of the accident the
construction being too frail to resist the
pressure of the wind and rain. A pile Of
debris marks the site of these proposed
worlds fair buildings, and the whole is q
total wreck.
The hotel was one of those light honey
comb structures that havo sprung up during
the winter months. 1t was II three-story
frame building, containing 165 rooms, Of
ficcs and parlors. The workmen had just
put the roof on the place and it was expsct-
ed the shell would be opened about May /.
1t is said tho two hotel buildings that
have just fallen are not the only dangerous
structures in that district.
Severe winds are prelictsd for this locality
for some days and the condition OF MANY
Of the frai buildings in tho worlds fair
district has occasioned much alarm. Tue
falling Of the Plymouth and the Clarkdae
simply indicntes the utter failure of the
building department to supervise this work,
and it is feared more serious disasters will
occur when many OF these temporary hotels
are put to use.
Another big building in the worlds fair
district with surprising suddennes, also
went down 1t is what is known as the
Panorama building just outside the exposi-
ton grounds. at the corner of 9th street
aud Stony Island avenue.
The building was erected up to the roof
line. A sudden gust Of wind caused a com
plete collapse OF the structure, leaving only
r. tangled mass OF beams and planks on its
siie.

CHICAGO, April ). Garter Harrison was
chosen Chicsgo's worlds fair mayor by a
ma jority OF 10, 900, and the entire demo
cratic ticket was elected by majorties
ranging from 10000 to 10, 600. The beau
tiful weather brought out nearly all tho
voters, and the result was a large poll for
q municipal sc.ion, although the vote did
not exceed that of last November. The
surprise of the day WAS the beggarly small
vote given to De Witt c. Creaier the labor
candidate.
Harrison was the regular democratic nom
inse, and was voted Tor by thousands of re-
publicans. His victory was popular one

Tho campaign was the most unique in the
history of tine city. After Harrison nom

cept the Times, of which Carter is editor-in-
chief, bolted the ticket.
When the publishers Of the other morn
| ing and evening papers, irrespective OF
party, got together, and, after hard work,
occurred the material for citi2sn's ticket
| thu Tribune, Inter Ocean, Record, and Her
aid doomed Samuel W. Allerton, the wealthy
pork packer, as the candidate. All of the
| evening papers but two fell into line and
! fired daily broads d es at Harrison.
The campaign was characterized by mud
singing aud vituperntive attacks of n per
sona character. But the combined in
tluence OF the powerful Publishers associa
ton was not strong enough to change the
result Harrison has served two terms be-
fore, was well known and popular. Then
