Several Battles Fought Rebel
Forces are Gaining
GrOnnd.
REBELS THROWING BOMBS.
Tho Troops Of Spain Object to
Being Blown mp by
Dynamite.

NEW York. - Especial. important
advices received from Santa Clara
declare that the rebels are using dyna-
mite with murderous effect in every
engagement. Great terror already
exists among the Spanish troops and
the government is endeavoring to sup
press the news in order that new ar
rivals from the peninsula may not be
panic stricken in advance.
The method employed by the rebels
to break the enemy's line consists In
throwing bomls in the Spanish ranks.
In this way, it is asserted, Maceo
forced his way through all opposing
forces in his progress through Santa
Clara, which province he could not
otherwise have invaded.
Gomez used dynamite in his assault
at Pelayo and insurgents give what
appear to be exaggerated reports of
the slaughter that followed. In the
engagement Gomez took many prison
ers.
Spanish official reports give the
government losses in the field and
hospitals from the commencement OF
hostilities to date $1,000 men.

that country has suddenly developed
into most valuable gold field. One

groups Of claims lately taken up at

Benjamin Springer, president Of the
Vancouver board Of trade; Henry
Hefrnig and the postmaster Jonathan
Miller, and is less than ten miles from
the latter's Office. Hefrnlg, who; is
the expert Of the party, has been
quietly prospecting ever since the

about Q year ago and now be and his

school Fight In Manitoba May Disrupt
the Dominion Provinces.
WINNIPEG, Man.-(special. EExcit-
ing events are impending in Canada.
Within Q month the parliament will
be summoned to pass q remedial order
directing the Manitoba government
to restore to the Roman Catholics
their parochial schools. Then will
come the climax to the long and bit
ter warfare, q climax that may disrupt
the confederation Of Canadian prov
inces.
To all entreaties for Q compromise
to avoid trouble Premier Greenway
turns deaf ear, and it is inevitable
that g the dominion authorities re-
store Roman Catholic schools in this
country they can only do so BY force.
In Winnipeg there il said to be q
growing movement In faver Of seces-
sion from the dominion, which In
reality means the setting up Of 4
crown colony entirely independent
OF Ottawa authority, but 1t IL certain
that Premier Greenway and those
back Of him will bitterly resist to the
utmost the restoration Of Roman
Catholic school, on which restoration
the dominion authorizes seem bent.
The premier does not qualify his as
sertions In this regard.

New YoRK. -lSpeciall B. p. Mnason,
Of Wood Cliffs, N. j., claims to be
possessed OF healing powers" equal
to the famous Sohlatter. who has
created such . sensation in Colorado.
Mnason is the leader Of strange
religious sect In the vicinity Of his
home, known as sThs Angel Dancers
or tho Churchmen Of the Living
God" he Is preparing to more
strongly assert himself as healer.
and center Of his little band Of devout
followers. According to his story he
has been able since tho beginning Of
his ministry to heal those who 60 to
him through faith, but now he gives q
more general invitation. Mnason has
been encouraged to do this through
the success Of Schlatter, the Colorado
healer, With whose movements he is
entirely familiar.
"Schlatter has been doing o great
work In Colorado" said Mnason.
Like me, he does not sell his God
given gifts, but he won't stay there,
for those people are driving him
away. I tell you It Is not any use in
trying to traffic In these things Of
God, and that Is what the people out
there are irving to do. Why, they
will soil handkerchief or anything
else that Schlatter takes In his hand.
Mon who are standing in line to get to
him will sell their places to anyone
willing to pay price for It. That is
the work Of the devil and nothing
else. Schlatter has God with him
nightly and won't stand that. That
IL the reason he disappeared last
week.

gan, treasurer Of the United States In
his annual report OF the operations
md condition Of the treasury, says tho
net ordinary revenues Of the govern
ment for the fiscal year ended June

Of e15, 668y O63 a. compared with tho

AZ, l57. The further sum of 81, 157,-
700 was deposited in the treasury
prior to the June account for purchase
Of gold coin to maintain the reserve,
but was not formally covered in, and
therefore does not appear In the &C.
counts for the current fiscal year.
At the close Of business June 20
1894, there was q balance Of S763, $685..
$40. Adding to this the receipts for
the year from all sources, gives 81, 49,.
l56 as the total to be accounted for
and deducting expenditures, leaves a
balance Of s773,6l0,O GOO on June 80 1895
In addition to this accountability te
the department, the treasurer had
liabilities on other accounts which
brought the totals to S808, 1854 ,753 and
$500, l48.130 ON the dates named re-
spsctively.
After setting aside the amounts
treated as unavailable, the principal
Of which is 81, 1O1, GA, deposited with

which there are live assets in the
several Office of the treasury and mint
and in depository banks.
OF these balances the sums Of 3616,

Aside from the variations in the
total stock Of gold in the country
which is dependent upon domestic
production and consumption as well
as imports and exports of the metal
the most important change now going

arises, says, from gradual retirement
