SAILED WITH ARMS TO CUBA
Tug Dauntless Eluded the Officials
at Brunswick, Ga.
Agents Deny the vesselIsa Filibuster.
but II Is Known She Was Loaded
with War Munitions.

Brunswick, Ga, A ug. 13.-Beyond reas-
enable doubt Brunswick tug Danntless
| is en- route to Cntan waters with a iiiibus-
teriDg expedition consisting OF about 1CO
men and several hundred cases OF small
arms.
The Spanish and United States govern
ment>officers have been greatly exercised
and United States Marshal Harrell ar
rived today TO aid in stopping it, but was
powerless.
The Dauntless is reported by Capt.
White of the steamer Passport to have
steamed away from the Satiila River Bridge
on the Florida Central and Peninsular
Railway, near Sun Rise, this morning with
cargo OF Cuiians, who left the late train
from Jacksonville at that point 10 board
her.
The name and home port painted on the
DauntIess were covered with canvas, but
she was recognized by many. John E. Du
Bignop, managing owner of the Dauntless,
returned to brunswick last night from
Jacksonville.
He denies the truth OF the intimation
contained in these dispat ches last night,
that he was hidden out and says his ad-
dress was known here: that his business
was in no way connected with filbuster-
ing; that he is not in that business, aud, as
far as he is personally concerned, the

beyond question at the proper time. Coney
4 Parker, local agents, state that the
Dauntless has gone to Florida waters to
tow a barge. rs
The facts and circumstances OF the
Dauutless, as far as known here, are as
follows:
For several days she has been preparing
FOR the expedition; ali her ballast was
unIoaded and sacks OF coal, together with
boxes of munitions OF war, we're placed on
her. With u picked crew OF men, under
Capt. Lofnm and Engineer Devefeaux she
steamed up the satiIla aud there awaited
the Cubans' arrival from Jacksonville.
AL her lights were ont and the trip was
made under darkness. An indemnity fund
OF $35 900 was put up to secure her owners,
which will go to her whether she lands the
cargo or is sunk or captured When the
men were placed on board the Dauntless
steamed away and will either transfer her
cargo to another vessel, land them on Cuban
soil, be sunk or captured.
such information. in substa nee, was wired
by United States Marshal Harrell to the
Attorney General tonight.
Spanish Vice Consul TOrras has done
his utmost to prevent this expedition as
have the customs officials, but so quietly
was the work done that nothing could be
prevented.

STEWART TALKS ON WAGES
Mentions Calamity Which Would
Follow McKinley's Election.
Complains Also of the Democratic
Press-Gives Warming of
Possible Contingency.

New York, Aug Ex-senator Stewart this
afternoon gave out the following state
meDt:
THE gold commercial press is using
every effort TO fasten the fangs of gold
monopoly upon labor. IT tells tie working
man thathign wages and cheap commodities
result from the same cause; that the cheaper
things are the more VIII lie pald 10 labor
for producing them.
If Mckinley wants the laboring man
to have "a dollar which VIII purchase the
largest amount of goods, why does ne want
high tariff for manufacturing monopo
lists? If the goldites really want the
laborer TO ell 10Y all the benefits OF a cheap
market why do they want Il high tariff, to
raise the prices OF the necelSaries OF life"
The gold standard is a tariff in favor Of
every silver standard country and against
every gold standard country, amounting
10 nearly 100 per cent.
The advantages which the agriculturists
OF silver standard countries have had III
the difference OF exchange has given the
silver standard countries the monopoly or
the European market for farm products and
reduced the prices of such products below
the cost of production.
The struggle with the Indians, Chinese
and South Americans in supplying Europe
with farm products is, therefore, unequal,
while the protected industries Of this
country raise the prices or the necessarles
of life and increase the burden of protec-
tion. In other words, McKinleyism will
make everything I he farms produ ce cheaper
ann everything the farmers buy dearer.
This may be an explanation why protected
monopolists contribute millions for Nc
Kinleyisin But why have the so-called
Democratic papers been converted to Nc
Kinleyism The answer is easy. Rotbs-
child, Morgan & Com pany are IN The wrecking
business.
They live on protected franchises and
perform the same function on the ac-
cumul atoms OF industry that vuitur
perform on GeCaying carcasses. The in
IiueGce of Rotbschild, Morgan 4 Company
with the Temocrati. newspaper is amply
sufficient to make that paper advocate
high tariff, low tariff, States rights,
federal despotism. or anything else which
shall suit the wreckers.
'.Laborers, take warning! Ask your
selves what Hanna and Pierpont Morgan
would d o il they had Mckinley inthe White
House in case labor organizations should
complain OF reductions in wages. Do you
doubt that il they owned the Federal
government that they would use the army
to reduce wages? II you doubt that in
vestigate the character OF these potentates
who propose to own President Of the
United States

ton and told them that il they Went home

ballot and Willard in the forty-fourth and
Anderson in the fort fifth
Meredith was dropped once On the forty
sixth and Willard received a death blow
on the forty-seventh, and Meredith fol-
lowed on the next. This left Judge Ashton,

and Mushbach in the race on the forty

McCabe and Anderson in the fight. with
Mushbach a 8 superBumerary 1t was on

decided to give up the fight, and froke,
giving their support to Rixey.
He was elected by vote of 1O,23O,

A BIG FIRE IN NEW YORK.
TWO BIG BUILDINGS DESTROY
I'D AND A HOSPITAL BADLY
BURNED.
PATIENTS WERE HASTILY REMOVED.
The Walls of One of the Burning Build.
fngs Fell on Tenement House.
Another Wall Crashed Down
On a Hotel

New York, Dec. 25.-Fire this morn,
ing destroyed the two big buildings on
East Thirty-third streets and partially
destroyed the New York Polytechnic hos.
pital and compelled the removal of its
patients, drove score of families from
their homes in adjoining buildings and
did $50O,O00 damages. The structures
which were destroyed were a five-story
building at 221 and 223 East Thirty-third
street, used partly AZ an office building
and big five-story building at Nos. 211
and 2l3, used as factory building. The
first and second floors of Nos. 211 and
213 were used as office and display
rooms for the Kaldenburg Manufacturing
company, which occupied, with its fac.
tory, the basement and second floor of
the factory building. The company
manufactures pipes and smokers articles
The third, fourth and fifth floors front
of 211 and 213 were occupied as Offices
by the Sebastian Sommer Piano com.
pany, u concern which had its factory in
the upper floors of the factory building
The upper part of the floors Of 211 and
213 were covered by the factory OF
Adolph Primer. 1t is believed that the
fire started in the snuff factory. A part
of the top floor of the factory building
was occupied by the New England Car
Spring company.
The fire in East Thirty third street had
been burning from o o'clock until z
o'clock before any alarm was felt in the
Polytechnic, though the patients knew q
fire was in the neighborhood. Suddenly
the roof of the hospital. which is on
Thirty-fourth street, burst into flames.
The physicians in charge at once decided
to remove the fifty-eight patients and
the Delaware hotel, near by, was placed
at the disposal Of the Polytechnic officers,
A squad of policemen began the removal
of the people, thirteen children being car
ried out without trouble. There was
more trouble with the adult patients.
Patients who should not have left their
cots defed the nurses and tried to es-
cape. None of the patients will suffer
from the change.
In the tenement house Just west of the
burning buildings lived twenty-four fam
lilies. The mothers and fathers watched
the fremen with Indifference from their
windows, while their children played with
Christmas toys. Suddenly terror seized
them as on-lookers cried: run for your
lives; the wall is going to fall ON you.
Mothers picked up their little ones and
ran to the streets. Others refused to
leave. The police showed the men and
women down stairs and picked up the
children from the floors, carrying them
out. Most of them were in their night
clothes and each was clinging to a toy.
The roof of the factory fell within an
hour after the fire was discovered. The
wall to the west tumbled down upon the
tenement house. The east wall went
down on Schuller's hotel.
The loss of 100000 is well covered by
insurance.

XMAS AT THE WHITE HOUSE.

Washington, Dec. 25.-Christmas was
celebrated in Joyous manner at the
White House. The children, not only Of
the president but of the entire cabinet
circle held high carnival in the White

this Christmas tree, and as II stood this
morning, when the bright sun of Christ
mas day shone upon its tinsel and gilt
ends, sparkled on the artificial snow and
the pendant icicles and betrayed some
pretty toy or knicknack concealed In the
thick foliage, it was tree worthy of the
White House. The children were early
awake-up, indeed, even before most of
the servants, and were soon gloating over
the presents that lay piled up around the
foot of the tree, and over the contents Of
their stockings, which were generously
the visitors began to arrive, children of
the members of the cabinet, and the days
enjoyment was fairly begun. There were
presents for each of the little ones from
Mrs. Cleveland, and in turn most Of the
visitors brought pretty tokens of ren,em-
brance for the Cleveland children.
The president and Mrs. Cleveland ex.
changed presents, as has been their prac-
tice ever since their marriage, and all of
the employees of the White House receiy-
ed appropriate useful tokens Of esteem.

in which Signor Martenilli, the papal del
egate, officiated, Monsignor Iebaretti,
the mediator of DR.. Rock, the secretary
