NOT ON THE ALLIANCA
DUPUY DE LONE DOUBTS THE
STORY OF FIRING.
CUBANS SUFFER REPULSE.
They Make a Disastrous Attack on
the City of YuraSuana-Thir-
ty-TvO Killed.

HAVANA, April 19.-The new Span
ish minister to the United States, Senior
Dupuy De LONE, arrived today from
Santiago, by steamer Reina Maria
Christina, In a subsequent interview
Senior De LONE said 1t had not yet
been proved that the assertions made
by Capt. Crossma4l, of the steamer AL
hanea- were correct, and it might be
presumed that the events narrated by
the captain had not occurred at all TO
the Alliance, but to an English steamer
belonging to the Atlas line He said
that, taking into consideration the
sagacity and diplomatic character of
Mr.. Cleveland, who certainly is not
very impressionable, he did not believe
that any important difficulty would be
met in settling the matter.
In this connection he said: 1.-The gov
eminent of Senior Canovas del Castillo
has already given the assurance to the
government of the United States that
Spain has no idea of In any way him
dering the commercial trade of the
United States. l do not know how the
press of the United States has treated
the matter. Having been four times in
the United States, the last time upon
the occasion of my visit to Chicago, in
connection with the worlds fair, l
have a most high opinion of the Amer
lean people. / also recognize from eX-
perience the good and honorable feel
ing of the American people, and the
elevated standard of education attained
there. Consequently l shall endeavor
to unite more and more the friendly
relations which have existed between
the United States and SPAIN
Referring to the instruction in the
island of Cuba, Senior Dupuy De LONE
remarked: 81 find that the uprising
is less serious than l thought it was.
The rebels are without ammunition
and without leaders. The government
is ready to send to Cuba promptly
all the troops necessary to suppress
the rebellion. BY May reinforce
ments amounting to $4,000 troops will
have arrived here. Marshal Martinez
de Campos is actively at work direct
ing the operations.
HAVANA, April 19.-Private advices
received here are to the effect that the
rebels made an attack on the town of
Yuraguana, about ten miles south of
ManZanillo, but were repulsed with
loss of thirty-two killed. The rebel
chief, Lovo, has surrendered to the
Spanish authorities, not wishing to
comply with the order that has been
issued by the insurgent general-in-
chief. Maceo, that all former Spanish
soldiers living within reach of the
rebels shall be put to the sword. Five
ex-soldiers have already been killed
under this order. Capt. Gen. De Cam
pos is expected to arrive on the 18th
inst.

THURSDAY EVENING, NOV. IA, 1895
A HUMAN VAMPIRE.


The cattle men on the ranges west of
Pierre, S. D., tell CHASTITY story of a
madman, who for some time past has
been roaming over the reservation,
killing cattle with his naked hands to
such their blood, and, in some cases,
even attacking men. No one seems to
know who the man is, nor how long
he hes been wandering about the
ranges. He was first seen some four
or five weeks ago. Repeated attempts
have been made to capture him, but
thus far without success.
He is said to labor under the halluci-
nation that he is vampire. How he
manages without weapon of any kind
to kill the cattle on which he lives is 8
mystery. When found after he had
left them the animals appear to have
been seized by the heads, borne to the
ground by main strength and torn to
pieces by the teeth and nails of the lu-
natic. .8iE5f O.
Jack Lewis, cowboy on one of the
ranches about midway between Pierre
and the Black Hills, is the hero of the
most exciting adventure with the mad
man yet reported. 1t was nearly q
fortnight ago. Lewis had been out for
several days with party on the range,
and about six o'clock in the evening ne
wandered away from his companions
and dismounted for few moments.
AS he stood by his horse he was sud-
denly struck from behind and nearly
strangled by the maniac. he struggled
furiously, but was unable to reach his
weapon, while his assailant frothed at
the mouth and made every effort to
seize the cowboy by the throat with his
teeth.
Such wonderful strength did he dis
play that Lewis was nearly overpower-
ed, and would doubtless have been
killed had not his friends, attracted by
his cries, arrived in time to rescue him.
The mailman fled when he saw this re-
enforcement coming, and although pur-
sued by several men on fast horses, he
contrived to elude them in the dusk
and made his escape. Lewis was quite
badly torn about the face and neck by
the mans teeth, and received shock
from which he has not yet fully re-
covered. yEs1nig{ ID
