New York, May ia special from
Tampa, Fla, says:
Private advices received here from
the Cuban revolutionary leaders say a

killing and capturing more than 900
men and great quantities. of ammuni-
ton and army stores. Gomez continued
his march through Camajuay. Men
from the plantations are joining the in
surgents hourly.
Washington, May 13.-Minister Du-
puy de LONE Of Spain says the Tampa
story as to a bloody battle in which 900
or more Spanish troops were slaugh-
tered is absurd. He does not regard q
denial as necessary, and expresses sur
prise that the public should be misled
into crediting a tragedy which, if true,
would be of such magnitude as to be
known by the whole world. The minister
points out that such a great enga cement
would not have escaped the attention
Of American correspondents on that
ground.
The Spanish government knows Of no
such battle, nor has word of it reached
the minister, as he said would be the
case if such a great engagement had
occurred Senior de LONE says there
can be no battles as there is no enemy
other than small scattered bands, who
are carrying on a guerrilla or a swamp
warfare.
Havana, May 13.-The Spanish troops
have defeated the band of rebels in San
Lorenzo that was led by Pedro Monez,
at MoscanOs. The troops captured a
number Of horses, arms, ammunition,
etc, belonging to the rebels. There has
been severe fighting with the band led
by General Miro in Camanaguan. There
has been fighting between the Spanish
troops and the rebels near Baracoa, but
no details Of the engagement have been
received here. The troops at Palma de
Soriano killed Pablo Ruega, one of the
rebel chiefs

Dear Sir: received some days ago your
letter, with which you sent me the pro-
test Of Christian l1ndeavorers against
the attacks made by Rev. Father Phe-
Ian in his paper on the practices of that
association, and I regret exceedingly
that a question of this kind should have
arisen, but after long and careful con-
sideratiOn of the whole matter 1 feel
that it is one which belongs to the most
reverend archbishop of st. Louis rather
than to me. With sentiments of sin
cerest esteem, remain faithfully yours
in Christ, SATOLLI."
Dawson says he will Immediately for
ward the petition to the archbishop Of

Storm Is Moving East.

washington, May 13.-The weather
bureau furnishes the following crop bull
letin:
The unusually warm weather that
prevailed last week throughout Mis-
souri, and the upper Mississippi valley
and the lake region. middle Atlantic
states and New England, has been fol-
lowed by a wave of extremely low tenn
perature, exceeding in many cases the
record of any previous year for the first
half of May. The warm wave began
Wednesday, the Sth, in the Missouri val
ley with a maximum temperature rang
ing from so to 100 degrees, and moved
gradually eastward, reaching the mid
die Atlantic states and New England
Friday. The cold wave set in the north
west Friday night. Frosts reported
Saturday morning as far south as Kan
sas and Missouri extended to the Allan
tic coast by this morning, producing
light frosts as far south as Chattanooga
and Lynchburg. Killing frosts occurred
Sunday morning in Nebraska, Iowa and
Michigan, and this morning in Michi-
gan, Ohio and West Virginia.
Warnings of these frosts were sent
out by the weather bureau on the day
preceding their occurrence to all dis
tricts affected. Shows occurred along
the lakes in Michigan and Wisconsin.
The storm which developed suddenly
during the last "a hours, now central in
the Ohio valley, will probably cause
still further fall in temperature as it
moves eastward. producing freezing
weather in the lower lake region and
northern portions of New York and New
England.

Another Slap at Emperor William in the
Rcichstag.
Berlin, May 13.-The government met
with another defeat today. The reich
stag rejected the whole tobacco tax bill.
During the debate which preceded the
vote on the tobacco tax bill, the spokes-
men of all parties, except the conserva-
tives, opposed the bill. insisting strongly
against any further disturbance of the
tobacco industry. Count Won Kardoff
alone advocated higher duty, which
he said was certain to be voted by the
next reichstag.
Count Fosadowski secretary OF the
imperial treasury. defended the prlnci-
pie of the bill as being the sole practi-
cal path to reform in imperial taxation
The reichstag, he added, was preparing
a common grave for all the government
measures, but it was to be hoped the
much needed reform in the taxation Of
the empire would be secured.
The vote on the bill was taken by the
members rising in their places. Only a
few conservatives and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
supported the measure.

A SHARP REBUFF TO THE KAISER
Defeat or the Ant.Ncvolutlon Bill In.
glorious Failure for nonenIohe.


Defeat OF the An..Nevolution Bill In.
glorious Failure for Honcnlohc.
London, May ia dispatch to the
Times from Berlin says When the last
paragraphs OF the anti-revolution bill
were read out scarcely one conservative
remained true to the government. Thus
ended ingloriousiy the long fight In de-
Tense of religion, morality ana social or
der. What consequences are to be ex-
pected from this first defeat of the Ho-
henlohe ministry and who is to blame
chiefly for the fiasco are questions now
exclusively occupying the public mind
OF Germany. 1t viii not be surprising
to learn that the defeat of the anti-reV-
olutiOn bill creates a vacancy in the
Prussian council of ministers. That no
result was obtained is, in the first place
owing to the fact that the champions
of religion, morality and social order
have been unable to subordinate their
own wishes to the general good. The
radical and socialist organs are highly
delighted.
The Times in a leader this mrning
says: 1.-THE decision is a serious one,
and perhaps the most serious feature
is that it seems to be thoroughly popular
with some of the most important classes
Of the state. 1t is an unmistakable re-
buff to the policy proclaimed by the
kaiser himself in his famous speech at
koenigsberg last September. That the
result Will be welcomed by a large num-
Der Of his subjects is not very salts

eighth annual session here this morn

over10,0 00metalliferous miners through
out the west, and it is one of the most
powerful of labor organizations. The
work of the convention will be ofmuch
Importance to the silver cause, as it is
expected that some action will be taken
by which the organization will be merg-

ciates the fact that it will greatly in
crease its prestige should it secure the
miners organization as an auxiliary.
The convention will last the greater por-
