large number of those who had listen
ed to the words clarifying Spain and de-
nouncing the United States, proceeded
to the American consulate, where they
gave vent to their patriotism by ston-
ing the building. The police were al
most impotent to disperse the rioters,
who did about as they pleased, In the
evening there was another outburst OF
disapproval of the United States and
all things American. This time it took
the form of publicly dishonoring the
American flag. The rioters had pur-
chased somewhere large American
flag, which, after it had been dragged
through the streets, was pulled to
pieces amid the cries of long live
Spain," and down with the Ameri-
cans"
After this the mob become more vio-
lent, and proposition to make a fur
ther demonstration against the Ameri-
can consulate was speedily acted upon.
The mob proceeded to the consulate, in
the meantime arning themselves with
stones Arrived at the consulate per-
feet volley of missiles was directed
against the shield over the door bearing
the American coat OIL dIlllS, WilcA w sh7
battered almost to pieces.
The mob in some way became pos
sessed of several American flags, which
were destroyed amid ribald jests and eX-
pressions of contempt for the nation
they represented. The situation was
becoming more and more threatening
when reinforcements for the guards
at the consulate arrived in the shape OF
a detachment of mounted gendarmes
The crowd was ordered to disperse
which they sullen1y refused to do,
whereupo the gendarmes charged with
drawn swords, and put them to flight
Several of the rioters were injured by
being trampled on by the horses.
Until a late hour the boulevards Were
thronged by an excited crowd singing
| the s'Marseillaise" and patriotic Span
| ish songs.
| Admiral Beranger has also ordered
that the training squadron be held in
readiness for service. Its probable OBJ
jective point is Cuba.
A captain in Barcelona has informed
the government that if he granted let
ters of marque he will fit out and main
| tain at his own cost a swift steamer to
prey upon the maritime commerce OF
the United States.
The Impartial to-day advises pru-
dence and exhorts the ministry to await
events.

THE SUFFERING AR1rENIANs.

The Relief Funds Are Surely Being Dis
tributed-New Haven's Contribution Thus
Far is $4,000.
Those who generously subscribed to
the Armenian relief fund in New Ha-
ven will be glad to know that, in spite
Of the threats so freely circulated in
the newspapers, as coming from the
Turkish authorities, Miss Barton is in
Constantinople directing the work of re-
lief. The actual distribution is being
made through the missionaries, who
have hitherto been acting independent
ly, and who enjoy the confidence of all
parties.
Miss Barton remains in Constantine
pie in order to direct from that cen
trail point the work, She is in harmony
with Minister Terrell and Sir Philip
Curry and those who send money may
therefore be assured that it will reach
it's destination, and will be distributed
with wisdom and economy.
New Haven has already collected
somewhat over $4,000 for this object,
but the books are not yet closed, and
additional contributions will be CRATE
fully received by the treasurer, Mr..
Pierce N. Welch, president of the First
National bank. Nor has the need for
relief passed away. 1t is rather be-
coming more urgent. The slaughter of
thousands of bread winners, and the
destruction Of great quantities of prop
erty will cripple the entire population
for months to come, and it will be long
before the distress can be. effectually
relieved, however great the contribu-
tions may be. 1t is hoped, therefore,
that those who may possibly have
withheld their gifts under the fear that
they might never reach their destina-
ton, will now come forward and do
what they can towards relieving the
distress of a sorely afflicted people.

WASHOUT AT SIMSBURY.
Simsbury, March IA washout oc-
Cured in the roadbed of the Philadel
phia, Reading and New England rail-
road early this morning which extends
a distance of ninety feet The gravel
was washed away to a depth of four
feet. The washout was fortunately dis
covered in time to prevent any serious
damage to the trains. This afternoon
gang of men were put to work on the
road repairing the damage, and grav-
ell train has been called into service to
fill in the washout. The officials of the
company entertain hopes that traffic
may be resumed before the morning Is
far advanced tomorrow.

Owing to the high tide the sea swept

despite the wind and weather.
CANAL RAILROAD BRIDGE CAR
RIED AWAY.
Salisbury, March 1.-Word was re-
ceived here from Southampton tonight
that bridge at that place on the line
of the Northampton division Of the New
York, New Haven and Hartford rail-

night.
CANAL RAILROAD-2,0 900 FEET OF
ROADBED CARRIED AWAY.
Simsbury, March 1.-The Northamp-
ton division of the Consolidated road
suffered the greatest damage at this
point. Two thousand feet of it's road
bed was carried away in two sections,
and all traffic on this division is render
ed impossible. So far nothing has been
done to repair the damage. The tracks
at the point where the road crosses the
Pennington river is still under two feet
of water, so that it is impossible to be-
gin repairs until the water subsidies.
Three freight trains are stalled north
of here waiting to proceed to New Ha-
ven.

pRE IvEEK IN CONGRESS.
Question of Highest Privilege viii be Dis
cussed in the Senate.


Washington, March There is so
general demand for action on the SEN
ate Cuban resolution that the managers
of the house have consented that as
soon as the legislative, executive and
judicial appropriation bills, the pending
unfinished business has been disposed
Of, the Cuban resolutions shall be the
next order How much time will be
devoted to their consideration is as yet
undecided. At least a dozen members
have expressed to Mr.. Hit, chairman
of the committee on foreign affairs, a
desire to speak, and it is probable at
least a full days session will be occu-
pied by the debate. After the Cuban
resolutions the postoffice appropriation
bill will be taken up. This, it is ex-
pected, will practically exhaust the re-
mainder of the week in the house.
The coming week will inaugurate the
discussion on question of the highest
privilege in the senate-the title to
seat in the body. Mr.. Mitchell, chair
man of the committee on privileges
and elections, gave notice Friday that
he would call the Dupont case up We'd
nesday at o'clock Mr.. Mitchell will
make the opening speech, and will be
followed during the week by Mr. Turpie
of Indiana for the democrats, and by
Mr.. Pritchard of North Carolina for
the republicans. The chairman of the
committee is of the opinion that the de-
bate will not last longer than ten days
or. at the outside, two weeks,
Tomorrow there is every probability
of the senate locking horns over mat
ter against which there appears to be
very determined opposition in the SEN
ate. 1t is the bill unanimously reported
by the senate committee on public lands
to approve compromise and settle
ment between the United States and
Arkansas. Mr.. Berry sought to call it
up late Friday afternoon and make it
the unfinished business, but several SEN
otors objected, and upon his motion
being pressed to take it up the alb
sence of a quorum forced by the oppo
nents oe the measure was developed.
Mr.. Berry then gave notice that he
would move to take the bill up imme
diately after the morning business to-
morrow. In antagonizing the measure
Friday it was characterized by Mr..
Gear as bill of a very questionable
character involving millions of dollars"
The agricultural bill will also be call
ed IN tomorrow by Mr.. Cullom, who
has it in charge. As there has been
offered no amendments to the legislative
features of'the bill as it came from the
house it will probably be passed in one
afternoon.
During the week it is not unlikely that
Mr.. Teller of Colorado may make his
promised speech on the tariff-silver
question in which he will explain the
stand he has taken and the reasons for
his opposition to the tariff bill Beyond
this there is no program for the week,

Worcester, March Hon w. w.
Rice, former congressman and the old
est ex-mayor of the city, died this eve
ming at his home on Bowdoin street
from organic trouble of the heart and
blood vessels, at the age of seventy
years. Two years ago last October Mr..
Rice had an attack of angina pectoris,
from which he never fully recovered,
and he had been confined to the house
much of the time. The past week
found him much worse and on Friday
his brother-in-law Senator Hoar, was

YALE WON BY Il GOOD SCORE.
The Basket Ball Game With Bridgeport Y.
NJ. c. A.-Yale Outplayed the Opponents
Captain Peck's Good Play.

The Basket Ball Game With Bridgeport Y.
NJ. C. A.-Yale Outplayed the Opponents
Captain Peck's Good Play.
Saturday evening the Yale varsity
basket ball team played a one-sided but
nevertheless rather interesting game
with the team from the Bridgeport Y.
M. C. A. The final score, to 0, would
doubtless have been much larger had
not Yale been handicapped by the loss
of three of her regular players, one of
whom, Kirk was injured shortly after
play began and had to retire in favor
of Hoffman, who took Clark's place at
forward, Clark going to center.
The Bridgeport team seemed out
classed, though they put UP very
plucky game. Their throwing for goal
and their passing were their weakest
points, but their poor success was in
large measure due to the good play Of
the Yale guards, the only regular MEM
bers on the team. In fact, all the home
players did much better on the defen-
sive than on the offensive.

game than the score shows. He seemed
omnipresent, and as general thing, to
find out where the ball was or was go
ing to be. one had only to look at him,
The only especially pretty play of the
evening was made by him. The ball
was passed to him and at quite a long
distance from the basket, with several
men interfering, he made beautiful
throw and scored a goal for Yale.
Five of Yale's eight goals were made
by Clark, who did really fine work in
blocking and throwing for goal.
The men played as follows:
Yale-Rockwell, left forward; CLARK
Hoffman, right forward; Clark (Kirk),
center; Peck (captain), left guard; San
ford, right guard.
Bridgeport-S left forward;
Hill (captain, right forward Jones
center; Davis, left guard; Skinner,
right guard.
