WORKING CEASELESSLY
HOW IT OCCURRED.

London, April pa dispatch to the
Daily News from Paris says: The ca
tastrophe occurred a few minutes be-
fore half past five in the morning. A
stonecutter who had just commenced
work a short distance from the reser-
voir saw the front of the wall, sixty
feet high and from 100 TO $50 yards
long. come down almost instantly The
water poured down the valley. forming
a wave about sixteen feet high.
The food reached MOmesy at 7:05
o'clock, having Travelled eighteen miles
in less than an hour and three quar-
ters. The Prefect Of Vosgas estimates
the number of victims at III. This
loss of life is probably understated, as
no new news has yet been received
from the passes of Frizen, through
which the torrent passed.
The sound of the bursting dam was
heard several miles away. The great
rush of water lasted for fifteen min
utes. when 100000 cubic metres Of
water had passed through the break.

THE CASE OF CONSUL WALLER.

Washington, d. c., April 2S.-Ex-
Congressman John NJ. Langston, the
attorney of eX-Consul Waller, who is
imprisoned at st. Pierre by the
French, is determined TO push the case
with all the power he possesses.
In the first place" he said, I'VE
propose to maintain the concessions
obtained by Mr.. Waller in Madagas-
car. The whole purpose of the prose-
cution and persecution of Waller by
the French government was to despoil
him of the concessions he procured.
We also intend to force the French
government to pay to Waller an in
demnity commensurate with the per-
secution he had undergone. He was
given a mock trial. was threatened,
and finally conveyed in irons to
France, where he now lies in prison,
awaiting a civil trial"
Mr.. Langston expects the admins
tration to take prompt action looking
to the release of the prisoner and to
demand from France a proper money
indemnity.

AFFAIRS IN CUBA.
The Revolutionary Cause Does Not
Appear to be PrOspering-- MaceO
Said to be Much Dissatisfied and
Discouraged.

Special Cor. of the Associated Press.
Gibara, Cuba, April 2S.-YOur corre-
spondent has just arrived from the lit
tie town of Baracoa, which awoke on
April 1st to find that it had gained
prominence by the landing OF Maceo
and his party.
The town has again subsidized into It's
usual tranquility, excepting that one
hundred and fifty government soldiers
arrived from Guantanamo on April Sd,
and these were followed a few days
later by two hundred more, who came
overland from Santiago. The soldiers
are guarding the different Notifications
and entrances to the town both day and
night.
The colonel commanding the forces
secured the country for insurgents for
miles around Baracoa, but failed to de-
tect any evidence of their presence.
The few that left the town on the first
of the month to join those that landed
are mostly mulattos. 1t is said they
are not many miles from Baracoa, and
are desirous of returning TO their
homes, but fear Imprisonment.
Official kilograms were received from
Guantanamo. stating that the regu-
lars and insurgents had exchanged
few shots which resulted in the killing
of Flor Grambet and another insur-
gent. with the capture of seven rebels
and all their fire arms.
The dispatches further state that
General MaceO, with his few followers,
are said to be so surrounded that they
will either be killed Of starved to
death.
II is rumored that Maceo is very
much dissatisfied with the condition or
affairs on the island, and says that he
has been deceived in coming to Cuba,
as he expected to find the entire island
ND in arms, but upon his arrival he
finds things entirely different.
The very latest news to-day states
that all Mace0's force except two have
been captured.
Madrid. April 2S.-Marshal De Cam
nos CAPTAIN General of Cuba, has
drawn up a plan of campaign against
the rebels. He will go to Santiago de
Cuba. in three or four days, from Ha-
vana.

They were pursued by government

But it is confidently believed that
rather than suffer the seizure OF otner

Dr.. Guzman made a negative reply
