In order to make the shells conform
to the requirements of the navy, these
eight shells must perform successfully
the work claimed for them. The ex-

enormous. In the first place, a charge
of $50 pounds of powder is required for
each shot The gun from which they
are fired is thirteen inches in inside

Suspension Bridge, n. Y, June "a
The construction of the trolley line
along the American bank of the Nj
agara river has resulted in the con-
tractors bringing to this locality sew
eral hundred Italian laborers to live
in camps along the route of the line
between this city and Lewiston. Over
them the Italians have hoiSted the nag

heed 10 the Stars and stripes. One of

Italians and they had demonstra

flag staff some sixty feet long, from
the top of which they fioated Italy's
flag. Below il on the same staff they
nailed a small American flag, while
from the corners of shanty other
American flags hoated The promi-
nence that was given TO Italy's fag
and the apparent insult to the stars

than one comment. The Italians were
advised 10 change the flags, bug they

however, VINO intended that the
American flag should be respected and
yesterday afternoon, despite the fact
that all the Italians were in camp,
Orlando Z. Wilson, a veteran OF the

four men Michael Fitzgerald. john
Callahan, Charles Hickey and Edmund

irving there they demanded that the
Italian flag be lowered from the staff.
The Italians were as little disposed to
heed the request as they were all
others made.
Take that flag down." said Wilson,
cor III shoot it down." These words
were serious, and the faces of the
Italians became sober. There was a
great chattering in their native tongue,
after which one, apparently the leader
of the camp, gave the word to Dull

came down within reach of uplifted
hands the Italians grabbed it and
showered their kisses upon it in their
worship of their countrys flag Wilson
and his comrades paid no attention to
this, but satisfied that the Italians
recognized that no flag must float
higher than the stars and stripes in
this country, they quietly retired from
the camp, leaving the Italians in

Washington to kill Grover Cleveland.

HARM
Realizing that he had a crazy man
to deal with, Chief Hamilton replied
that he, too, longed to perform the
same act and suggested that they go
together.
President Cleveland could be more
easily assassinated by two men than
one, you know" he said to the lunatic.
To this the man assented and away
the two men started. Chief Hamilton
kept the man talking about himself
and telling how he would carve Presi-
dent Cleveland until the village lookup
was reached. At this point the man
grew suspicious and wanted to know
what they should do in that building
Chief Hamilton replied that they would
step in and talk the matter over for a
minute or two. The next second the
lunatic was hustled into a cell.

KILLING OF cAMpos.
No Truth in the Sensational stories
SanE nut

Sent Out.
Washington, June jt.-Minister Du-
puy de LONE, OF Spain, says that the
report of the killing of Captain Cam
pos, said to be the son of General
CampoS, is without foundation, IS Is
also the report coming Via Tampa
that a battle was fought on the 18th
in which many were killed.
Il am surprised at the systema tic
manner in which this propaganda Of
misinformation is sent out from the
centers of Cuban sympathy, Tampa,
Key West, Jacksonville, Gainesville
and Nassau, Bermuda. Here is
great public question on which, the
Tacts if known, would permit the pub
lie to form their judgment. But these
centers keep furnishing reports of
bloody battles, the killing of generals,
although no such battles or casual
ties occur. The reports show on their
face that they have been manufac-
tured. These centerS send reports
which ignore the geography of Cuba.
A leader is given at one point to-day
and the next day he is given as lead
ing charge at another point several
hundred miles away. The Cuban agi-
tators are also in the habit of giving
the same regiment from several diff
ferent points. Tampa will first tell
the story of fictitious battle. The
next day Gainesville furnishes another
report of the same battle. Then it
comes from Jacksonville and a little
later from Nassau, so that the fight
ing is made to serve for several weeks.
This is being done Systematically by
the several persons interested in CIV
ing a fictitious Importance to the
trouble but it is only fair that the
public should understand the motives
which impel the series of hoax bat

paper says attempts are being made TO
organize flibustering expeditions in
this city to go to Honolulu and over
throw the government. Exiles are sale
to be the prime movers in the plot.
Captain f. Lupp, OF this city, is said
to have been recently approached by a
man named Stewart aud asked II he
would go to the islands as master of a
schooner carrying armed men and q
cargo Of guns, ammunition and dyna-
mite bombs. The terms offered Cap
tain Lupp were $4,000 down and $4,000
in case he should succeed in the dan
gerous work required of him. He was
told to find a nit vessel and report
upnu the lowest cash price Of it. That
is the story Lupp has told
As the story goes Stewart said that
friends of the exile colony in this city
had put IN big sum of money for the
fiIibusUel nag scheme, and that an agent
had bougL supplies of war material in
the east. These purchases, unlike
those which went to Hawaii 10 be used
in last years revolt, were of first-clasS
arms and ammunition. The other time
money bad been wasted in buying light
carbines ana revOlvers, which were no
match for the Winchesters and Lee
ma gazine rifles of the government
troops.
The present supplies. so Stewart
said, were of dynamite bombs, long
range repeating rifles of 45-10O caliber,
Colts army revOlvers of the latest pat
tern and a battery of Hotchkiss and
Maxim guns. with rounds enough for
each piece to turn the paradise OF the
Pacific into the inferno. of the western
hemisphere. This costly freight had
been divided and IT was the purpose to
send half of it over the Northern Pa
cific TO Seattle and the other half on
the Santa Fe TO San Diego: from the
latter port a second expedition was to
leave in a schooner to be commanded
by man named Mcfarland.
When Charles 7. Wilder, the consul
general of Hawaii, was asked what he
knew about the matter. he said he did
not wish to affirm or deny anything.
