DENMARK LYNCHING.
Negroes of South Carolina Deeply

WAsHINGToN. May II. The following
letter from gentleman, vouched for as a

has been received here, depicting the ex-

Carolina, 1t may be stated that the writer

III South, Carolina:
COLUMBIA, s. c., May 70.
Although at first glance the popular ex-
element aroused by the lynching of the
negro Peterson at Denmark, this State, ap-
pears to have subsidel, to the skilled OBJ
server of public affairs il is plainly evident
that beneath the surface there are strong
currents of bitter feelings at work that will
not come to rest until they have wrought
marked changes in the very substratum of
politics in the Palmetto State. and, by
sympathetic action, in the whole of the
great black belt of the South. Public
meetings have ceased. but the feeling of
disquiet is evident on all sides.
Though the feeling is bitter. II is not to
be understood that there is imminent
danger Of war of races The negroes
are acting with prudence and discussing
the affair calmly bnt earnestly. They have
abandoned hone of outside interference,
and are becoming self-relant. They mean
to use The power OF their brain and sinew
in politics on scale they have never be-
fore attempted, and that is what the
negroes are privately discussing just now
The political future of this State is
troubled and uncertain of prediction if

NOT BANKRUPT YET.
James Gordon Bennett Still Has
Few MilIion3.
He Has Simply Organized the New
York Herald Under a Stock
Company.
Special to THE MoRN1SG CALL.

New YORK. May 14.--It is explalned
that the disappearance of James Gordon
Benefits name from the title page Of the
New York Herald was due to the fact that
the proDrietorshlp of the journal has been
vested in a stock company. Mr.. Bennett
feels that in case anything should happen
to him it would be desirable to have the
property in shape for proper preservation.
John Townsend. attorney for Bennett,
is quoted as saying that Bennett has had
in his head for two or three years the idea
of forming a corporation to run the Her
aid. Nothing has been definitely decided.
however beyond the fact that Z corpora
ton will surely be formed. No steps have
been taken beyond the discussion of the
plan.
Townsend said that. speaking from his
knowledge Of the matter. the capital stock
would be S2,0000 eco. He thought the
shares would De 500 eacn. making 10000
shares in all. and that Bennett would ho'ti
1880 600 worth of the stock, or IS 600
shares. The stock will not be for sale,
and there will be as few stockholders as
possible.
As soon as Bennett determined posi-
lively TO have the corporation, he took his
name of the editorial page.
Townsend said that Mackav had no in
terest in the Herald at the present time,
nor would he have in the new corporation,
Bennett was richer to-day than he ever was
and in no financial difficulties.
The Herald is not mortgnged for dol
lar and Bennett is worth 81. 600 clear
of debts. If there are three stockholders,
Gardiner q. Rowland will probably be
one of them. If there are more than this,
Mr.. Townsend could not tell who they
would be.
ITO sum up the whole thing" said Mr..
Townsend, "he is simply going to organize
a corporation to hold his newspaper stock.
OF which corporation he VIII hold the ma
jnrity of the stock. He does this in order
that he may have his property in such a
shape, il he is SO minded, that he could
easily dispose OF all or apart of it during
his life and can partition it plainly and
simply at his death.

VICTORIOUS REBELS.
The Revolution in Nicaragua a
Success.
Two Battles Fought in Which the
Government Forces Lost Heavily.
ZavalIa Predicts Defeat.
Special to THE MoRN1xe CALL.

PANAMA. May 15.-Advices from Mica
ragua show that the revolutionists are
gaining ground and daily becoming more
aggressive. San Juan del Sur and the
country towns up 10 Granada are in their
hands Corinto is being fortified by the
Government TO resist an expected attack
from San Juan. The opposing forces are
maSsing at Massayn. Two battles fought
near Massaya resulted in favor of the revo-
lutiOnists, whose superior artillery caused
the Govern ment troops heavy losses.
Ex-President ZlYalll of Nicaragua tele-
graphs from Granada to-day: Almost
all the country has risen against the Gov
ernment The departments of Granada,
Massaya, Rivas, Chontalps, Matagalpa.
New Seg0ya and Lake Nicaragua are in
revolt. San Juan and the Atlantic coast
are in possession Of the revolutionists.
President SacaZa has been shut mp in the
capital. He is drawing resources Of men
and money from the departments OF Leon
and Chinandega. The revolutionary army
is camped al Massaya. Three formidable
attacks by Government troops are reported
TO have resulted in great losses to the
ASA lantS. The Government is on the de-
fensive. TIE revolution advances daily
and lis triumph is certain.
Fort San Carlos. at the head of the San
guin River, Nicaragua. and Fort Castillo,
on the line of the proposed Nicaraguan
canal, have been captured by the revolu-
tionists. Il is reported that they have
seized the canal property and the Govern
ment has been cut off from an outlet to the
coast on the eastern boundary OF Mica
ragua.
These forts were taken by the revolu-
tonists on the night of May II. but the
news Of their capture did not reach San
Juan del Sur until to-day. General Cutter
rez and Colonel Malaver commanded the
revolutionary troops which took posses
Sion of the forts.
The statement that the canal property
was seized is not fully credited.
Another cable dispatch from San Juan
d5 Sur says that battle is expected TO
occur at any moment in Baranaca, near
Masaya. The Government is missing
troops near the town and preparing TO a.
tack the revolutionists. When the ex-
pected battle takes place it is believed the
revolution will be settled.

number of prominent officials.
Iii Hung Chang, at present Viceroy of
Chuh-!e aud Shang Tung Provinces, the
great statesman Of China, whom General
Grantso heartily admired, has been very
slow t0 come to this view of the case and
very unwilling to relinQuish his marked
friendship for the United States. But
there are strong grounds for believing that
this great statesman has at last come to
the conclusion that the only way to defend
the honor and dignity of his own nation,
In view of these expected acts of oppres-
sive legislation on our part, and in view OF
the failure of diplomatic action to produce
any remedy, IS 10 enter upon course of
retaliation and treat Americans in China
as the Chinese are treated in America.
"Ths is the most perlous time in the re-

were coming up in the cage to dinner. and
the engineer hoisted the cage against the
timbers of the shaft. The coupling-pin

bottom.
Following are the names of the killed:

top OF the derrick. when it broke loose
and went back with a crash to the bottom
OF the shaft
There is no way of reaching the bottom

Unearthing Pension Frauds in Vir-

Special to The MoRNISG CALL.

WAsHINGToN, May 1.-THE National
Negro Democratic League has addressed n
letter to President Cleveland, which, after
criticjzlng the Re publican party for its
treatment of the negro. says that the
league stood with the Democra party
when it was routed In 1888, and that those
who had received recognition al the hands
of the Democratic party were promptly
chastised ana summarily dismissed by the
Republicans.
Again in the last campaign the negro
Democrat, in the face of insults and in
juries of every kind, with voice, pen and
his best energies, proclaimed for Grover
Cleveland and reform. The letter reetes
that the league has been placed in false
light before the country because OF the
failure so far TO gain recognition in the dis
tributiOn Of patronage, and asks the Pres j.
dent II the places "held by c0lored Repub-
licans who have been and are now hostile
TO the league and the party with which it
identified, are 10 remain longer in the
hands of political enemies"
1t is stated at the Pension Office that up
TO last Tuesday the pension examiners
now in Norfolk, Va. investigating claims
filed by Pension Attorney Drewry had
completed fourteen cases, all Of which
were found irregular or fraudulent. The
pension officials have been searching the
files for claims filed by Drewry which
have been allowed, aud so far 166 have
been found and forwarded to the examin-
ers at Norfolk.
No computation of amounts paid on
these claims has been made, but as all of
them were filed under The act of June q,
1899. which allows Sl2 per month as the
maximum rate. it is possible that the aver
age will fall below $500 each. Drewry is

A QUESTION OF ETIQUETTE.
Shall President Cleveland Return
Eulalia's Visit Now the
Momentous Problem.
Special to THE MoRN1xG CALL.

WAsHINGToN. May 14.-It was learned
to-day that the representatives. of Spain
and the United States have thus far failed
to reach a satisfactory understanding re-
garding the programme of cOurtesies 10 be
extended between the President and the
Infanta Eulalia in the course Of her stay in
Washington.
According to custom, the Princess, at a
convenient period after her arrival. would
call upon the President and Mrs. Cleveland
Mt the White House. Whether or not the
President should in return call at the
Princess quarters in the hotel is the ques-
tion, upon the settlemento of which depends
the future coCrse OF the Infanta.
The Spanish representatives, it is under
stood, iusiSt that a return visit TO the
Princess is one that is due by courtesy and
should be paid. They argue that the
Princess is the personal representative of
the Queen Regente, and will come to the
United States upon the express invitation
of Congress. Under these conditions, and
these only, they feel that a return visit
should be raid. If the Infanta were travel
ing through the country as tourist
merely, they say, she would pay her re-
spects TO the President, and no return visit
from him would be expected. The Spanish
officials are quoted as saying that the
courtesy which should obtain among in
diViduals OF the same rank, and not eti-
quette demands that the visit of the
Infanta be reciprocated by the President.
The subject has been very thorougly dis
cusse1 in Washington and Madrid, and a
telegram from the latter capital, printed
on Saturday morning, expressing the ap-
prehension that the Iufanta's health would
not permit her TO continue on her journey
to the United States. is construed here as
preparing the way for her return TO Spain
from Cuba If it should be found necessary
to change the original Ulan.
The situation is embarras sing, and many
suggestions have been NJ ade of expedlenis
to relieve it. One of these, it is under
stood, was that the Infanla and her suite
be entertained at the White House during
her stay. thus obvating altOge her the
difficulty over the return visit.
There is no precedent for the guidance
of the officials here. as no one assuming 70
be the personal representative of soYe-
reign has ever visited this country.

by defective fiue in the bakehouse of the
Aldine Hotel badly gutted the building to-
night and caused loss estimated at about
$4,000. The 120 guests in the house and
the servants escaped uninjured after an
exciting experience.
The servants were first awakened, and
scattered through the house to arouse the
sleeping guests. Nearly all the guests
rushed from their rooms with but little OF
except their nightdresses.
To add 10 the terrors of the situation the
electric lights went out and the Garkened
halls were filled with shrieking women
and frightened men, cropping their way
through the smoke toward the stairs.
Pushing, iostling and scrambling the ter
rified crowd made its way down the back
stairs to the street. and all proydentially
escaped.
When the firemen arrived they soon got
the flames under control, butn before the
roof had been burned off and the house
thoroughly flooded with water.
The furnishings of the hotel, valued at
S112000. were damaged to the amount of
$4,000. on which there is 100000 insur-
auce. The building was damaged to the
extent of S3a, 600.
