BUTTE, Mont, Aug. 23.-Helen and
Margie Addis-Mooney, sisters of
Lady Sholto Douglass. are filling an
engagement at local vaudeville the
atre, and were inclined to laugh over
the Associated Press story from San
Francisco that the Marquis of Queens
bury had made an investigation into
the ancestry of his new daughter-in-
law and had found it satisfactory
enough to admit her into the English
aristocracy.
Helen and Margie are not ashamed
of their ancestry, but they find in it
no particular recommendation for adj
mission into the aristocracy.
Father Mooney was very ordinary
but honest Irishman, who has not
lived with his family in years. Mrs.
Mooney, in former years, was propri-
etor of variety show at Eureka,
New, and the girls were brought up
in the business.

BAD BLAZE AT CLEVELAND.
Every Fire Engine in the City is at
the Scene.


CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 24.-At 1
o'clock this morning fire broke out in
the Williamson block on the southeast
corner of the public square. 1t
smouldered for about half an hour and
the firemen could not locate the seat of
the flames. At 100 o'clock almost with
out warning the building burst into
sheet of flames and it was seen that
the building was doomed. Adjoining
the Williamson block on the north is
the Cuyahoga block, a magnificent ten
story building and one of the costliest
and handsomest in the city. AT this
writing q a. mo- this building is in
imminent danger and the fine blocks
on Euclid avenue to the east of the
Williamson block, are doomed. Every
fire engine in tho ciptv SC - +ho
At 3 o'clock the Cuyahoga building
is still in great danger, and the fire
men are making heroic efforts &c save
it. The fire is burning slowly east
ward on Euclid avenue and is still be-
yond control. The loss at this writing
is about 100000.
At 3:15 am. the fire is thought to be
under control. One fireman was badly
cut by falling glass, but no other cas-
ualties, SO far as can be learned, have
happened. The Guyahoga block is
badly damaged, but to what extent
cannot now be stated. 1t is also i'm
possible to state individual losses or
insurance.

CALDWELL'S CHANCES.
Movement in His Favor Has Been
Revived in kansns,

Cu HI AdUSuss
TOPEKA, Kan, Aug. 23.-The move
ment in favor of Judge Henry c. Cald-
well of the United States circuit court
for president in 1896 OH the Republican
ticket has been revived today. Judge
Caldwell will visit Topeka next Tues
day on business connected with the
Santa Fe receivership. His visit is
likely to be made the occasion of a
demonstration by free silver men and
railroad employees in Topeka. The
Daily State Journal publishes a leading
article nominating him for the presi-
dency. He says: "On the question of
money, Judge Caldwell stands squarely
for the freet coinage of silver" In a
recent Interview sent to the Associated
Press from Denver this able jurist
said it would be little less than a crime
if the people of this country permitted
Wall street to fasten upon this ma
ton the gold standard.
Judge Caldwelrs position on labor
matters is commended and his famous
Omaha decision in the Union Pacific
receivership quoted

Boat Has More Than Met Expccta-
tions.
BRISTOL, RI. Aug. 23.-The many
reports that have been printed regard
ing the condition of the yacht De-
fender were answered this afternoon
by statement made to an Associated
Press representative by John 3. Her.
reshoff, Of the HerreShoff Manufacture
ing company, in which he not only de-
nieG emphatically that there was any
truth in these reports, but declared
That the boat had more than met the
highest expectations of her builders.
There is nothing the matter with
the Defender and there never has been
any serious trouble with her" said
Mr.. HerreShoff 1.-The reports that her
hull has been wrenched, either on her
ways or in running aground, is without
Soundation. The breaking of the first
spar and any of the slight accidents
= We're unavoidable, and were not ex-
pected in a new boat The breaking of
3the gait was the only serious accident
that has occurred.
Last Tuesday in the race it be-
came apparent that the mast, after
the previous accident was scarcely
strong enough for the new rigging,
especially in the weather that pre-
vailed, and in order to prevent any pos
silble accident. the Defender withdrew
from the race and was brought back
to Bristol. in order that she might be
thoroughly overhaule6 and have every
thing done that could be done to antici-
pate any future accidents, and especi-
ally after she should be rugged with
her steel boom and gait. AS soon as
the new mast is put in position the
steel boom will be put on and the De-
fender VIII then be ready to protect
the Americas cup"
Mr. Hefreshoff was of the opinion
that this work would he finished by
Monday or Tuesday at the latest.

WALTERS CASE.
EUsTIs AT LAST
MAKES A MOVE.
His Action is Very Gratifying to
Members of the State Departures
What is Believed.

WASHINGTON. Aug, 23.-o1icials of
the state department were sratihed today
10 learn that Ambassador Eustfs had
made a move in the matter of Waller and
had carried out a portion of the instruc-
tons which have been sent him. The
department has felt that its efforts in
this case have not been ably seconded
at Paris as they might have been and
Ambassador Eustis explains in his dis
patch that the delay has been due to
the absence of the minister of foreign
affairs. The department believes that
within a few DAYS the French govern
ment will make some response to the re-
quest made for the papers III the Waller
case. 1t is recognized at the department
that the French government is not ONLY
slow but that the French people are in
chned to be nettl10 at the course pursued
by the Americans as shown in the resent
inent felt because The commander of the
Castine had failed to salute ;he
French at Tamatave. 1t is thought much
may be made of this incident hy the
French IN order to still further delay the
settlement of the Waller case. But it is
probable that the United States authori-
ties VIII not allow the two things 10 he
coupled, but VIII Insist that the Waller
case must be considered solely on its
merits. The United States has not recog-
nized the French protectorate over NADIA
Eascar. nor has Il refused recognition.
Consul Waller, who is at Tamatave, is
only acting consul in one sense, us the
United States has never applied for nor
received an eXeguate,lr from him. In
advising the commander of the Castine
not to recognize or salute the French
the department presumes that Mr.. Waller
has taken the right course and knows
what he is about and will act on that
assumption till something to the contrary
is learned. The effect this position of the
consul and the commander of the Castine
may have on the Waller claims is alto
gether speculative. If French control is
not recognized in the island and: in fact
should be denied by the United States
government, it would define clearly the
issue and make the claim OF Waller in
disputable from an American point OF
view. but il is said that such a position
by the United States is necessary to the
establishment of the Waller claim if Mr.
Waller received his concession from
defacto government.

The Presunnntion.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-The pre-
sumption among the officials at the
Chinese legation is that the protection
to the commission referred to is from
mob violence. The officials however,
express the opinion that ample protec-
ton will be afforded by the local au-
thorities without the intervention of
assistance from other governments
Besides it is not believed at the lega-
ton that the central government at Pc
kin would permit the landing of ma
rines at the place where the investiga-
ton is to be conducted. There is, how
ever, no news at the legation in regard
to the statement in the dispatch, and,
in fact there has been no information
received verifying the report of the
appointment of committee of inves-
tigation.

CUBAN INSURGENTS.
A Complete Government is Said to
Have Been Formed.

Have Been rOrmed.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 25.-News
has been received in this city that a
complete government has been formed
by the Cuban insurgents at Najaska
by a conference of the delegates from
all over the provinces on the Islands.
The conference was presided over by
General Maceo, and the other leaders
present were Antonio Tuilo, GARLIC
and Gomez. A constitution was adop-
ted with liberal propositions, which
were enthusiastically received by all
the armies in the field to whom it was
read. The instrument provides for five
states in Cuba, each to have charge of
its local affairs under a local governor.
The general government of the island
will be vested in a president and a
cabinet, and two houses similar to
those of this country. Najaska will be
the capital because it is we'll situated
for defense.
