NAY MANAGE THE ATcHIS0K.
President Jefery of the Denver and Rio
Gran6e Being Doomed for an Im-
portdRt Position.

DENVER, CoLo., Nov. 12-It is now be-
lieved in local railway circles that E. It.
Jeffery, president of the Denver and Rio
Grande, will be selected to manage the
Atchison. The foreign bondholders of the
Colorado road are also heavily interested
in the Atchison, and they are so highly
pleased with the record made by the Rio
Grande during the presidency of Mr.. JEFF
ferry that they strongly urge his election to
the Atchison, believing that he can
strengthen that company's securities by
his management of its affairs.
MIR. Jeffery's friends are making strong
effort to land him in that berth, and thew
are now in New York with documentary
evidences of various kinds to prove to the
foreigners and others the executive ability
of the Rio Grande president. So sanguine
is the feeling here that Mr.. Jeffery will be
named that discussion has begun upon the
question of his successor. Charles II
Schlaacks, assistant general manager, is
mentioned for the place.

Regular Troops Driven Back
After a Fearful Slaugh-
ter.
SEVEN HUNDRED WAS THE LOSS
General Maceo Maintained His Posi-.
tion Through the Valor of His
Followers.

BOSTON, MASS, Nov ia dispatch to
a morning paper from Santiago de Cuba
dated the 1st inst. states that big battle
was fought on October 20 a short distance
from that city.
General Macee and the army of the east
had been strongly REINFORCED by large
part of the army of the west and interior
departments and numbered in all over
1000. They had large field battery and
had fortified themselves strongly in the
Corde Libre mountains.
The position is one of the strongest and
most stratgetic in the eastern part OF
Santiago de Cuba, and both sides had
made every endeavor to hold the place.
The rebels were driven from the position
month ago by the arrival of heavy re-
endorsements to the Spanish garrison al
Santiago de Cuba and during the last two
weeks succeeded in capturing 1t by some
desperate fighting in which a large num-
Der Of men were lost.
On the 29th the regulars numbered
nearly 5000 men and made combined at
tack from three sides. The heavy rain
which had fallen in the valley prevented
any heavy guns being brought up, so the
Spanish foot regiments made the COM
bined attack without the help of heavy
artillery. The attack was made with
great dash and spirit and for time it
seemed that the place must be recaptured.
The weight of the insurgent artillery
told in the end and the regulars were soon
in full retreat to Santiago de Cuba. Their
loss was over 700 men, while the insur-
gents loss was only 200.

AID SOCIETY,
Failure Of an Attempt to Change
the Administrative
Policy.
No Action Taken on the Question of
Confining the Work to the
Negro Race.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Nov. 12.-An attempt
on the part of the committee on resolu-
tions to change the administrative policy
of the Freedmens Aid Society of the
Methodist Episcopal Church. made at to-
days meeting, was not successful. The
committee reported in favor of abolishing
the Office of one of the corresponding Sec
retaries and appointing instead field SUI
perintendent, who should have active
charge of the work in the South, with
headquarters in the Central South. The
report precipitated long discussion,
which ended by the proposition being laid
on the table. A ma jority of the members
argued that as during the last quadrenniaI
more progress had been shown than at
any other time, despite the financial panic,
q system under which such good work had
been done would not need to be improved
upon.
Bishop J. n. Fitzgerald presided at the
morning session and Rev. J. B. Scott con-
Quoted the devotional services. The COM
mittee on appropriations report in favor Of
granting the following appropriations: !:
Sam Houston College, Austin, Tex.
$4,000; Philander Smith College, Little
Rock, Ark, $4,000; Bennett College, Green's
boro, n. c., $3000 Four thousand dollars
was set aside as contingent fund for the
use of teachers in these colleges. The gen.
eral appropriations amount to $43,65G.
This sum covered all expenses incurred in
running the affairs of the society. One
thousand dollars was appropriated to Muir
ply College contingent on its raising the
money. The report of the appropriations
committee was adopted.
As usual at the yearly conferences of the
Freedmen's Aid Society the question of
isolating the work so as to include the ne
gro race only was discussed, but no action
was taken on it. Bishop Merrill was of the
opinion that the society was greatly hand
icapped, as being obliged to attend to in
suitutions for educating the poorer class of
whites in the South. 1t was pointed out to
him, however, that the General Conference
had four times refused to separate tn e
work into two classes, and that to do so
would be equivalent to drawing the color
line, and on these representations he did
not press his point.
The general committee adjourned until
next year at the close of the morning.

Stanford boys this afternoon. 1t is evident
that some misunderstanding prevented
the practice game which Captain Cochran
had planned for the men. The fact that
Berkeley IS to have three practice games
with the Olympics this week will probably
result in Stanford arranging like series
OF practice games for the coming week.
Captain Cochran was disgusted because
his men could not have the advantage of a
game with the San Francisco men to-day
but gave the players hard practice game
TINS evening to make up for it.
Jackson Reynolds. Carton and Franken-
helmer, all of whom have been off for
some time on account of injuries, resumed
work last night. The practice was much
better than had been seen for several days
previous. The Varsity had all it could do
to hold down the second eleven, which
was composed of several aggressive
players. One of the finest plays of the
year was a slxty-yard run of Spalding's in
a scattered field. He was aided by good
interference and his work reminded spec
tators OF the fine runs made by Abe Lewis
last year. Fisher '9S, and Adams, '98, are

THREATENED BY A CRANK.
Crazy Janitor Graham Had Decided to XIII
George NJ Pullman and j. B.
Griffin

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Nov. 12.-Willlam B..
Graham, one of the George M. Pullman
employees in the Pullman building, was
arrested because it was feared that the
lives of Pullman and ]. B. Griffin, one of
Mr.. Pullman's superintendents, were in
danger.
Graham had made threats to shoot both
Pullman and Griffin, and there was de-
cided sensation in the palatial office struc-
ture at Michigan avenue and Adams
street when the fact became known, and
that Mr.. Pullman's private policeman, as
well as city detectives, were searching
high and low for Graham, who has been
employed about the building as an assist
ant ianitor and occupied a room on the
sixth floor of the building. About 5
o'clock he was found in his room, and
after chase through the building was
secured.
Graham at first denied having made the
threats and talked in a rambling manner.
Finally he declared that Pullman and
Griffin were his deadly enemies and that
he had been warned to get them out oi
the way. One of them was to have been
removed by the 18th and the other by the
9th of this month. Graham was ex-
amined by the City Physician and sent to
the Detention Hospital for the Insane,
where he will remain until his sanity is
passed upon.

When the Tribe Is Informed of
the Killing 1t Is Feared They
Will Retaliate.
PRECAUTIONARY STEPS TAKEN.
Eight Police Sent to the Scene of tht
Crime and Troops Held in
Readiness.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. IA tel
egram dated from Ignacio, Colo, yester-
terday was received at the Indian office
the killing of two Ute Indians by whites.
The telegram says that Juan Tobias, of the
Indian police, while out hunting, found the
bodies of Raven Nough, sub-chief of the
Winnimiche band of the Utes, and one of
his men, who had been murdered by the
whites. The bodies were partly covered
by snow, and had evidently been dead
some time. The murder was committed
between the big bend of the Dolores River
and Plateau Creek, off the reservation.
They were hunting, pastime secured to
them by the treaty. There are other In
dians in the same locality and a like fate
may overtake them. Agent Day says the
absent Indians have not yet been informed
of the murder and expressed fear that
when they are blood will flow. The Indi-
ans on the reservation, he says, are coun-
selling IN menacing manner, and he in
forms the commissioner that he deems it
advisable to hold company of calvary
ready to advance at once if necessary.
Agent Day says he has wired the Sheriff of
Montezuma County to be on his guard and
to aid IN investigating the affair. He has
left to the bureau officials the matter of
communicating with General Wheaton,
commander of the Department of Colorado.
Commissioner Browning took Agent Day IS
telegram to Secretary Smith, and the latter
will probably refer it to the War Depart
ment for its instruction.
Commissioner Browning received another
telegram from Agent Day dated November
IL. 1t is as follows: 'I have sent eight
police, in charge of Stanley A. Day and
| Joe Smith, to the scene of the murder
There is no danger from my Indians here
| but they are excited and uneasy. More
danger on account of the fear of Western
| Utes than any other agency. I have
ordered 800 rounds of cartridges from Du
range, more to allay the fear than of any
thought of having to use them. I will re
port the result of the investigation by wire
The police will reach the scene of the
murder Wednesday night, as it is 100 mile!
distant by road and trail. The police
reached Durango last night at :55."

AFTER THE ScHLATTER CURE.
hvaids Pouring into Denver by the
Tho usand to Be Healed BY the
Ex- cobhier

DENVER, Colo, Nov. 12.-The Schlatter
craze is fast growing into mob. To-day
it was by the most cautious of handling
that the great crowd was kept in subjection
and forced to obey orders relating to
positions in line. Tickets bearing numbers
were issued and all had to form the long
queue according to the numb bers. So many
applied that the line at daylight extended
four blocks. AS fast as the people passed
the healer others came into line at the
rear. Schlatter dismissed at the rate of be-
tween 400 to 500 an hour, having declined
to-day fer the first time to bless handker-
chiefs. Trains are pouring in, additional
invalids hoping to reach the man before
he ends his public work on Friday night.
His mail to-day numbered twenty-seven
bundles, each containing from 100 to $50
letters. While he works people are con-
ssantly appearing in the crowd to publicly
relate the details of their cures. No as
tonishing cures are witnessed there. but
tales of cures are abundant enough The
Methodist Bishops arriving to attend the
great missionary meeting visited the scene
to-day and viewed the crowd from car
riageS.

DEFENDERS CREW ANGRY.
They Have Drawn UP Protest to Be SUB
mitted to the New York Yacht

GREENS LANDING, MAINE, Nov. r.
Down here, where the whole of the crew
who sailed on the Defender during her
races were picked, there is the greatest in
dignation among the men.
Captain F. P. Weed, who had the honor
of selecting the crew, stated to-day that he
had interviewed all those forming the
crew, and they had under oath stated that
there was no change made in the Defender
after the official measurement. They tes-
tify that the Defender was measured both
times in the Erie Basin, as prescribA in
the rules governing the international races,
and that everything was done openly and
above board.
The men feel the insult keenly, and as a
result they have drawn up denunciation,
to which they have affixed their sigma
lures, which will be forwarded to the New
York Yacht Club with request that 1t be
sent to Lord Dunraven.

The Turkish Garrison at Zeitoun COM
PEELED to Surrender.
CONSTANTINOPLE, TURKEY, Nov. 12.-
Advices from Zeitoun, Asia Minor, say that
the Turkish garrison at that place has
been compelled to surrender to the Ar
menianS.
The financial situation in Constantinople
is still unsatisfactory, and the impression
prevails that the powers have agreed upon
joint action in the matter.
Americans here are somewhat anxious.
owing to the absence for several days of
news from the districts in which there are
American missions. United States Min
lister Terrill has wired to Darput asking
Missionary Darnham, who is stationed
there, as to the safety of his mission.
The Porte, in reply TO the Identical note
of Germany, Austria and Italy demanding
that the Porte's scheme for reform in
Armenia be officially communicated to
them, has informed the representatives of
these Governments that their requests
will be complied with without delay.
Later news from the disturbed sections
shows that the situation in Asia Minor has
become more serious than ever. Fresh
disturbances are reported to have occurred
in Marash, Bitlis and Sivas. 1t is re-
ported that the Turkish garrison at Zitoun.
which surrendered to the ArmenIans, have
given up their arms and ammunition and
that the Armenians now occupy the Zltoun
barracks.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Nov. (via Key
West, Fla, Nov. 12).-The trial by court
martial of Manuel Paloma Varona and
Rienero Avilez, accused of sympathy with
the rebels and of carrying correspondence
to them, was held yesterday in the Jail of
this city. The accused were sentenced 10
fourteen years hard labor and will be sent

The Spanish column of General Garcia
Navarro went on a scouting expedition
through the country around the Daiquiri
and Juargua iron mines and Lagran
Piedra, but could not find single rebel in
all their march.
On the morning of November l the
guerrillas of Caney encountered band of
$50 rebels about a mile from that place.
They engaged in a fight which lasted
about forty minutes, the rebels having two
killed and seven wounded, while the Span
iards had twelve killed and twenty-three
wounded, among the latter lieutenant.
The rebels captured two mules laden with
provisions.
On October 80 the Spanish column of
Commander Roseabel, 200 strong, arrived
at Guantanamo after being out two days.
They had an engagement with the rebel
leaders Ruen and Gill; with 200 men, in
Baiquiri and Vega Grande.
According to Spanish reports the rebel
loss was two killed and five wounded. The
Spanish captured some guns and ammuni-
ton and two horses. They had two
wounded. Lieutenant-C Colonel Juan Te-
jeda and Commander Punel have been
promoted to be colonel and lieutenant
colonel of the army respectively for their
important services since the beginning OF
the war.
Since the publication of the news here
that General Pander had been ordered to
come to Cuba many families have been
preparing to leave Cuba, and great num-
Der of men are making arrangements to
join the rebels in the field.
