Havana, oct. 5. via Tampa, Fla, Oct.
u-Among the recent victims Of yellow
fever is Manuel Delgado, son of the
late Admiral Delgado Y Parejo, who was
lost with the cruiser Sanchez Barcaizte-
elu. Delgado, Jr.. who was quite young,
had accompanied his father from Europe
to cuba, not wishing to be separated from
him. He witnessed the recovery of his
fathers body near the Moro.
OHcial reports state that the many de-
tachments on outpost duty are having
many mimportant skirmishes with the en-
emy. The studied policy of the insurgents
seems to be the avoidance Of coming to
close quarters. In localities unprotected
by troops they cut telephone and tele-
graph wires and burn bridges.
Santa Clara is under the military pro-
lection Of Gen. Valdez, a man of large
experience in whom the captain general
has an able assistant. OF the recent en-
gagements in Santa Clara there are only
two worth noting. Two columns were
formed, one of which, Gen. Lugues, con-
sisted of 250 infantry and eighty cavalry
This detachment, at Pailita, attacked and
destroyed a camp of the insurgents. They
killed eight of the enemy and took one
prisoner. The other detachment, Col.
Palanca's column, attacked the insurgent
camp at Maguez, defended by 400 men,
under Manuel Rodriguez. The insurgents
had a strong position, but were forced to
abandon it. They removed all their dead
and wounded, except one man, who had
been killed, but left behind saddled horses,
supplies Of cartridges, hammocks and one
prisoner. The encampment was burned.
II had taken three months to build 1t. A
surgeon, while exploring beyond the camp,
counted twenty-three dead men and about
nifty horses. The prisoner stated that
over 100 men were wounded.

AMERICANS AND THE TURKS.
The MarbIehead Ordererd to the
Coast of Syria.


Coast of Syria.
Washington, Oct 1.-At the request OF
Minister Terrell for the protection of
American missionaries in Turkey and az
the instance of the state department, the
acting Secretary Of the Navy. Mr.. Nc
Adoo, to-day ordered the United States
cruiser Marblehead to proceed to the gull
OF Iskendoroon, otherwise the gulf OF
AleXandretta.
A cablegram received at the state de-
partment says that the Turkish govern
ment has issued orders to its authorities
in all provinces to protect Americans The
Marblehead, Capt. O'Neill, sailed yester-
day from Villefrance for Naples. She will
probably arrive at Naples tomorrow and
Capt. O'Neill will there find awaiting him
the dispatch ordering his ship to the Gulf
of lskenderoon.
The gulf is on the Syrian coast. about
llOO miles from Naples, and the Marble
head can reach there easily in four days.
The action of Secretary Olney and Act
ing Secretary McAdoo with regard to the
Marblehead was based on cabled reports
from Minister Terrell, that he feared that
trouble would be caused in distant pro-
Yinces, when the news of the Constanti-
nople rioting reached them. A large num-
ber of the Armenian Christians are natu-
rallied citizens Of the United States, and
this government has a great responsibility
in giving them adequate protection A
number Of American schools are also situ-
ated in Armenia and Syria.
According to cable messages received at
the state department. Minister Terrell Is
very active in providing for the safety of
citizens of this country throughout Tur-
key and the Turkish possessions. A few
days ago he wired the department that he
had asked the porte to issue directions to
its officials to see that Americans would be
protected in the event of trouble from the
Constantinople massacre, and his dispatch
of to-day shows how successful he has
been in this connection.
London, Oct. ia dispatch from Rome
to the Pail Mall Gazette says the vati-
can has promised to take action through
the papal nuncios at Paris and Vienna In
behalf of the Armenians.

Tehuantepec swept up the coast into
the Gulf of California, doing great dam
age. The hurricane was accompanied by
a deluge of water, which completed the
ruin the wind had wrought.
At Topolobampo all the houses of the
American colony were greatly damaged
and the custom house was wrecked. The
Ahomy river overfiowed its banks and de-
stroyed sugar plantations and sugar mills
thirty miles away from the channel of the
stream. The entire sugar crop of the
state of Sinaloa, as far as reported, IS
completely ruined and the sugar lands and
refineries at Ahone, the property of Mark
Sherwood of Chicago and his associates,
were demolished. The sugar crop on the
Yaqui river in the state of Sonora, is
also destroyed The damage to the sugar
interests of the state of Sinaloa and So

sAcKvrLLE's ATTACK ON DAYARD.
The London Daily Telegraph Com
menfs on 1t with Censure,


London, Oct. 1.-THE Daily Telegraph, In
an article commenting upon Lord Sack
ville's issuance of the pamphlet in which
he makes an attack upon United States
Ambassador Bayard. says: "A very fool
ish, ill-mannered, ill-timed and ill-made
pamphlet has been issued by Lord Sack
vile with the purpose of injuring the rep
utation of Mr.. Bayard, now the United
States ambassador, charging him with
being a political trickster and consist
ent and determined enemy Of England
The whole thing is so full OF thoughtless
bitterness that 1t is not worth while to re-
produce any part of the brochure. We
only hope that the common sense ana
practical judgment of the English and
American public will treat this uncalled
for attack with contemptuous disdain
Those concerned with diplomatic history
Will be the first to assure Mr.. Bayard
that no effect whatever is likely to be pro-
duced by such series of charges, so Ut
terly unworthy of attention or consider
alton.
During his sojourn here Mr.. Bayard
has earned golden opinions for his lir-
banity and his keen judgment Of affairs
ana, above all, has made studious efforts
10 cultivate amicable feelings between
England and America. Through him the
English are learning a fuller apprecfa-
ton of Americans and a higher admira-
ton Tor the great republic

Attorney General Harmon on the
Duty of Americans.
Washington, Oct. 11.-Inquiries by mail
and kilograms have been received in con-
siderable numbers of late at the depart
ment of justice as to whether it is a vio-
lation of the laws of the United States
for American citizens to express SYM
pathy for Cuban insurgents in public meet
ings and to aid in fitting out expeditions
to assist them. One of the most recent is
from Mr.. Wetkins of Albany, N. Y.
In reply to it Attorney General Harmon
has sent the following letter, which rep
resents the views of the administration
on the subject
Department of Justice. Washington, D.
G., Oct. 8, 1S95.-Mr. e. A. Watkins, 1l9
State Street, Albany. n. Y.-Sir: For some
reason your letter of Sept. 26 did not reach
me until to-day. l hasten to say in reply
that the organization of a military force
of any sort in aid of the insurrection in
Cuba would be a direct violation of sec
ton 62S6 of the Revised Statutes of the
United States, which provides for a fine
not exceeding $1,000 and imprisonment for
not more than three years for every per
son who in any way takes part in such
an expedition or enterprise to be carried
on against any princlpallty, state, etc.,
with whom the United States are at peace.
As the United States is not only at peace
| with Spain, but have with her treaty
whereby the eXtradition of prisoners and
many other benefits are secured, 1t be-
hooves all American citizens who have re-
spect for the laws and obligations of
/ their country and regard for its honor,
70 observe the law in spirit as well as in
letter, to be neutral in word as we'll as
in deed. While there is no law to pre-
vent American citizens from speaking
thelr sentiments on any subject singly or
together, taking such action as you men,
tlon IN your letter would, in my judgment,
pc discourteous in the highest degree to
friendly power and tend to embarrass
| ana obstruct the government in carrying g
out It's determination faithfully to execute
Ihe laws and fulfill it's treaty obligations
very respectfully
Judson Harmon, Attorney General.

ment in the District.

ment IN the District.
Washington, Oct. 1.-THE health officer
of Washington says that an epidemic of
typhoid fever exists in this city and that
unless sanitary precautions are observed
by the inhabitants generally. a serious
condition Of affairs may shortly be ex-
pected. Health officer Woodward esti-
mates that at least 800 cases are under
treatment in the district to-day. In tho
first four days of this week IL deaths from
typhoid were reported, and he has no
doubt that some deaths reported as due
to kindred complaints really resulted
from typhoid.
For the week ended Sept. q, there were
p deaths. New York city, with seven times
the population of Washington reported
only II typhoid deaths for the same pc
riod, and most of the cities of the size Of
Washington reported not more than two
or three deaths, If any at all.
The epidemic Is attributed to the low
stage Of the water in the Potomac river
which constitutes the city's supply and
the use of well water In families The dis
ease is as generally distributed in .the
best sections OF the city as in the poorer
quarters.
