What German Boys Celebrate.

In a military country like Germany
what glorious times the youth must
have! They not only celebrate the IN
peror's birthday, but many military vic
tories besides. Apart from his imperial
majesty's anniversary, when all Ger
many turns out in holiday attire, are
the festivities i'll commemoratlon OF the
great battle of Sedan, called Sedans-
feiertag. This battle, You know, is the
Last victory the Germans gained over
the French. Sept. 2, 1895, will be the
twenty fifth anniversary, the prepare
tons for which are already being made.
In every city, village and hamlet military
parades, fireworks. picnics and concerts
will be the order Of the day. Then will
the little German children be sent with
helmet, wooden sword and drum, and
many a father will present his young
son with a whole suit Of regimentals.
1t is very droll to see II hero Of 6
march with conscious dignity or touch
his cap With martial salute. In II OF
the heights that surround "a principal
town in Germany stands Il fort Of rude
construction that has been made by boys
in remote years and has been used by
generations Of boys ever since upon ma
tional holidays. Here the flag is hoist
ed, the boys divide into two parties, one
party mounts the fort and defends the
flag, the other endeavors to cross the
moat and storm the position. OF course
there is plenty Of noise and the blast OF

General De ouesada Asserts That Span

Cuban Standard Reported Capture of
an Insurgent Leader.
NEW YORK, Aug, 14.-No confirmation
has been received of the report in daily
paper of this city that General Campos
had resigned his command of the Spanish
forces in Cuba. In an interview with
General De Quesada on the subject the
Cuban loader said: ut would not be sur
prising if General Campos did carry out
his oft repeated threat of throwing up the
command in Cuba.
Information just received from CANA
guye tells of the success of General Gomez
and of daily reinforoements to his ranks.
Ihe city is in panic and the Spanish
troops are afraid to venture beyond iUs linn
It's General Campos has ordered that every
body of troops shall leave monuments be
hind In order to show that they have
operated in the places designated by him q.
When the soldiers return from their ex-
cursions in this region one-half of them
are disabled by sickness. In the hospital
at Puerto Principe there are over 400
Spanish soldiers, and the deaths average
twelve per day.
From the sugar plantation of FL Lu-
garano fifty Spaniards, natives of CALI
cia, recently joined the insurgents, show
ing that even the Spaniards are in sympa-
thy with the revolutionists. From Ma
drid / am informed that the reserves OF
1891 are SO disgusted at being ordered to
Cuba that the government is afraid of q
mutiny, To prevent this they have been
disarmed, and their arms and ammuni.
ton will be shipped on a transport to
Cuba. The reserves, however, declare they
will join the revolutionary forces when
they are disembarked in Cuba"

THE FIFTEENTH VICTIM
Of the New York Building Collapse
Taken Out.
THE CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT.

The Central Pillar of the Mammoth struo-
ture Was Situated Directly over an Old
Well Hole, Which Was Evidently I'm
known to the Contractors.
NEW YORK, Aug. A. The cause of the
collapse of the Ireland building in which
fifteen lives were lost, came to light yes
terday when the workmen engaged in
clearing away thedebris in the cellar un-
covered an old fashioned well under the
foundation. 1t was situated directly un-
der the central pillar of the structure, the
undermining of which precipitated the
disaster. The well was only eighteen
inches below the concrete base on which
the pillar rested. 1t was of the old fash
ioned sort, six feet deep by eight feet in
diameter, lined with rough stones, and
there was no water in it,
The coroner and several building ex-
perts examined the we'll but would give
no opinion on the matter. One building
expert said, however, that neither the
contractor nor the officers of the building
department could have been unaware of
the fact that the we'll was there, nor of
the fact that it's filing was too soft.
A representative of the district attor-
ney's office will attend the inquest on the
bodies, and If any evidence of criminality
is discovered the case will be laid before
the grand jury.
Another badly mutilated and deoom-
posed body was taken from the ruins yes
terday and was identified as Peter Mareno,
an Italian laborer. 1t was terribly
mangled and decomposed. Every bone in
the body was broken, and great pieces of
flesh were scraped from his arms and legs.
Part of his face was crushed in and he
presented a horrible spectacle. This
makes the fourteenth body which has
been removed from the ruins and the one
who died in the hospital makes fifteen
dead thus far. But one more man known
TO have been in the building is missing,
and it is expected that his body will be
found there.
