WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.-Wilis T.
Moore, chief of the weather bureau, pre-
pared the following special bulletin:
At this writing the temperature at Chi
cago is "a degrees and the maximum
temperature during the day was "a de-
grees, and by tomorrow morning the
much retarded and long -wished-for cold
wave will have extended over Illinois.
causing fall Of from thirty to forty de-
grees in temperature. The approach of
this cold wave over the central Missis-
sipp: valley was an.ic pated by the pub
lished forecasts of the bureau on Saturday
and this mornings special bulletin was
issued. giving telegraph warning of the
decided change in temperature to 1865
stations located in the states OF the Upper
Mississippi valley and upper lake region.
These warnings have been extended
eastward to the statss Of the Ohio valley
in the anticipation that the cold wave
will extend over these states Monday
night.
The approach of this cold wave was
first indicated by the reports received
from the extreme northwest Canada sta
tions on Thursday and it's slow movement
to the southwark was due TO an extended
area of high pressure which covered the
eastern hall of the United States. with its
center over the south Atlantic states.
This distribution OF pressure gave per-
sistens warm southerly winds until the
area of high pressure covering the Geld
wave gathered sufficient force to over
come this resistance. The cool wave was
driven almost southwark over the Rocky
Mountain states during the Goth and 21st,
attended by SHOWS and freezing weather
in Colorado, the Uakotas and Nebraska |
willis there was some uncertainty as to
tho rapidity of the advance of this cool
wave to the eastward when it first ap-
peared in the exterme northwest there
was strong probu bility on Saturday that
IL would extend over the central valleys
tonight and such notice was duly given,
while the. morning report of the day
justified wide distribution OF the ener
gency warnings above referred to. The
rapid development of the depression
which is now central over Lake Superior
will hasten the movement CT this cool
wave to the eastward.

The Spanish Cruiser Barcastegui Sunk by .

The Spanish Cruiser Barcastegui Sunk by q

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 22.-An en-.
tirely different explanation OF the sink
ing of the Spanish cruiser Barcastegui
and the loss of forty-six lives in the har-
Dor of Hava a on last Wednesday night.
is made in letters received in this city to-
day by distinguished member of the
revolutionary party.
According to the news telegraphed from
Havana the day after the catastrophe
was due to the collision between the
cruiser and merchant steamer. 1t is
now stated as an absolute fact that the
cruiser was sunk by a floating torpedo
launched by an adventurous party of Gu
bans. The Cuban leader who received the
letter said:
1.-The Spanish government knows full
we'll what sunk their best cruiser and
sent to their deaths Admiral aDelgado
Perejo. in command of the Spanish navy
in Cuban waters, seven officers and
thIrty-four men. We know here that be-
fore the dispatch relating to the accident
was sent it was carefully edited by the
press censor.
"The advices which have received say
bans under command of Captain Carlos
Enrique, left Guantanamo IN O steam
Iauncn which was the recent invention OF
an American. 1t was an ingenious de-
vice. SO constructed that it could be
launched some dsta ce away from the
object aimed to be destroyed and then by
a piece of cluck WORK, explode in about
fifteen minutes after it is sent out. The
little party on the launch had received
these torpedo launches only week be-
fore. Captain Enrique selected point
about 200 yards from the wharf from
which to lsanch the torpedo. 1t was
slipped out and as soon as it was gone
Captain Enrique gave orders to steam
away MS rapidly as possible. The work of
the torpedo was even more speedy than
anticipated. Not five minutes elapsed be-
fore 1t exploded with u report that was
heard several miles away. From what
those on the boat say, it must have gone
off about fifty feet away from the cruiser
and struck her in the starboard side. 1t
is true the merchant steamer Monterey
was near the vessel at the time and that
she, too, suffered damage, but it was not
serious by any means. and if the men on
boardNof her had kept their heads they
might have saved some of the lives of
those on board the cruiser.

A Chicago Divine Believes Spanish Oppres-
sion Should Be Ended
CHICAGO, Sept. 22.-The Rev. DR.. II.
W. Thomas caused somewhat of a sensa-
tion this morning by declaring from his
pulpit that the time has come for Amer
lea to say tnat the oppression of Cuba by
Spain must come to an end.
There was large attendance of the
best people OF the city and the speaker
was frequently interrupted by outbursts
OF applause. DR.. Thomas said in part:
Among the modern nations of the
earth Spain is old. She was once in the
foreground. one of the greatest and proud
est and most prosperous of nations. But
she was always on the side Of royalty
and ecclesiastic SIN. She belonged to the
old order of government and religion.
Other countries have advanced, have
heard the call and caught the inspiration
of new light, while Spain has stood
still, has gone backward. She has not
absorbed other people of the earth and
caught inspiration from them. Her re-
ligIon is Roman Catholic and is supported
by the state. No fault can be found
with tnat. She has right to her relig-

Germany, France and Italy. and there
fore argue that Spain. this moribund
nation that has faileed to get into line
with the practice of this great age, has
forfeited the right to be a dictator, much
less a ruler. among the nations of the
earth. 1t has the right to exist in igno-
rance and superstition and to manage its
own affairs, but not the right to cruelty
oppress its own subjects.
"T e time mas come for America to say
this oppression of Cuba must come to an
end and thst very soon. III our men,
ories are on the side of freedom. When
we struggled France held out a helping
hand and Russia sent her warships to
cruise off New York. Can we stand still
and let Spain crush the life out of these
struggling patriots, as bravo as men ever
were and are struggling for the rights of
men as we once struggled. (Applause).
Governments move slowly, but there is
now need to deliver an expression of our
sympathy. 1t is fitting that the voice of
pulpit the press and the people of this
great city, the center Of the country,
should be heard first"
