SPAIN KNOWS THE RASCAL
Who Fired on the Alliance, But
Assumes Ignorance.

New YORK, March 19.-Officers of the
Alliance say they are perfectly confident
that the Spanish government knows the
name of the gunbOat which attacked the
United States mail steamer Alliance; II
it does not. however, it will be very
simple matter for 1t to find out.
All that the government will have to do
is to obtain copies of The logs of all the
ships which were then in that vicinity,
and it will be an easy matter to discover
which one was in the longitude and lati-
tude where the shooting occurred.
Had the Spaniard been justified in
firing upon the Alliance, she would I'M
doubtedy have reported the episode at
one of the ports. The fact that no such
report has been made, is proof that her
commander realized he had made Seri-
Gus blunder, and is anxious to hush up
the whole matter. That the shooting oc
Cured Just as the officers of the Alliance
reported to the State department, is alb
solutely true, and 1t matters not II all the
Spanish ministers in the world deny it.

CrosSman would never have dared to
have sworn TO false affidavit and sent 1t
to Washington. Moreover, the story OF

ADIRONDACK DEER KILLERS
Neatly Caught at Their Trade,
They Pay Their Fines and
Quit.

ROCHESTER,, n. Y, March 10. - For
some time the State Game Protection de-
partment at A lbany has had its eyes on
the local huntsmen at the AdirondackS,
who, 1T was believed, were rapidly killing
off deer and depicting the flocks of part
ridges by shooting out OF season and kill
ing the game and shipping 1t to New
York markets. 1t was determined to put
stop to this practice, and Game Consta-
BILE Brooks. OF Chilli was selected to detect
violators. The game protector at Alex
ander Bay was selected to assist. Brooks,
equipped as a gentleman sportsman"
with the Alexandria man for a guide,
made his way to the territory Of the game
and put up at a hotel, located between
Canton and Cranberry lake, which was
reported to be the center of the industry.
By liberal tips Brooks secured the conf
dence of the landlord, and soon found
himself in the midst Of a thriving though
secret traffic in good things for the table
of metropolitan epicures. Several deer
were brought in from the mountains and
shipped under his very eyes to New York.
When the dealer found he was caught, he
paid the fines imposed and promised never
to offend if he was forgiven. The express
company through whom the game was
shipped were prosecuted, but settled the
cases without letting them go to court.

WHO FIRED THAT SHOT ?
THE CAPTAIN OF THE WAR STEAM
Err WHO SHOT AT THE
ALLIANCE REPORTS.
He Says the Steamer Carried an
English Flag, Was Only One
and ope-Half Miles Off
Shore and Carried
Rifles.

HAVANA, March 19.-rhe name Of the
Spanish war ship that fired on the Amer
lean steamer A llianca is now known. IL
is the Spanish cruiser Condo de Venadite
This fact became puGllc today, Nhan the
captain of the cCuiSer reported that he
had tried to stop steamer and had
opened fire on her when she persisted in
proceeding on her course. According TO
the story of the steamer Venandite, while
cruising on the eastern coast OF Cuba, on
March 3, she saw a steamer heading for
CapS May, and shifting her course to the
orGheast. The cruiser hoiSted a flag and
the steamer replied by raising the Eng
fish flag. The cruiser then Signaled the
steamer TO stop, but without effect. As
the steamer proceeded al full speed the
cruiser first fired the two blank shots and
two solid shots. The commander claims
he did not desire to hit the steamer, but
merely fired TO cause her TO heave to. He
asserts the steamer was but one and a
half miles from the coast when the firing
occurred. The authorities here have or
dered a full inquiry in this matter as to
the commanders acts. 1t is reported here
that the Alliance carried 24,CG0 rifles
south on the trip which she was fired at.

PORT-OF-SPAIN BURNED.
THE AMERICAN TARS PITCH IN AND
DO GALLANT SERVICE.
Business Part of City Wiped Out
Entailing a Loss of $4,97o,ooo
A Useless Home Department
Could not Grapple With 1t

New YORK, March 19-DetailS have
been received here OF disastrous fire at
Port-of Spain, Trinidad. About a. m.
March 4, fire started in one of the stO' eS
of the business part OF the city. Before
the fire department could reach the scene
the fire had spread to every house In the
block. There was strong southeast wind
blowing and it looked as II the whole
town in the direction OF the wind must go.
Among the buildings threatened were the
club house, ice house and the bank.
The crew of H. NJ. 5. BuZzard landed
at 4:3O o. m and gave valuable assistance
in bio wing up houses in the path of the
fire TO prevent it spreading. IL was seen
by Admiral Meade on board the flagship
New York that the fire was dangerous
one. He at once sent his aide ashore to
sistance. II it had not been an English
town, assistance would have been sent
without first asking. The offer being &C
cepted, 225 men from the squadron were
dispatched ashore at 6 p. N. The fire had
spread and covered three blocks one way
and two the other. The hose supply was
simply useless. The blue. jackets pitched
In In true American style to fight the
flames, while the marines under arms
were stationed about to keep the crowd in
check. The regular tiremen ashore were
worse than useless, and the Americans in
some instances, put them outside the
lines The tars fought bravely. They
could be seen on burning roofs with hose
and officers led their men into the burn
ing buildings. By 10 o'clock the fire was
well under control, and at 1870 o'clock
smoking ruins In chprge Of the tiremen
and police. The fire destroyed the best
business section of toe city. The lost is
estimated at 81 ,S70,CC0.
