THOMAS DAWLEY CASE,
The Correspondent Of Harper's Weekly
Has Been Released from Moro
Castle-BattIe at Najasa.

Havana, June 14.-Thomas Dawley,
the correspondent of Harper's Weekly,
who was arrested some time ago on the
charge of being in communication with
tn rebels, has been released from Moro
castle, where he had been confined ever
since he was taken into custody.
Incomplete details have been received
of an important battle at Najasa. Un-
official reports state that Gomez was In
command of the rebels. who numbered
five thousand men. He made manoeu-
yer with the intention Of leading the
Spanish commander to believe that he
intended to surround the troops who
were encamped on the plains of Sara
toga. The vancouver failed of the de-
sired effect which was to compel the
Spanish force to retreat. The rebels
then attacked the troops with machetes,
but the latter repulsed the charges. The
fight is said to have lasted forty-two
hours.
General Godoy, with q strong Span
ish force, arrived on the scene and with
his assistance the troops succeeded In
forcing the rebels to retire. The rebel
loss is said to nave been 500 while the
troops lost only four killed and two Of
ficers and 81 soldiers wounded. Later
details may place the engagement In an
entirely different aspect. The battle Is
said to have been similar to that which
took place at Guasimas in the last war.
Last night dynamite explosions oc-
Cured under two bridges on the road
leading to Cerro and Jesus Delmonte,
suburbs of Havana. The explosions
caused panic among the people in the
neighborhood. The damage done to the
bridges was slight.

THE SILVER MEN QUIET.
Senator Teller Refuses to Outline the
Policy Of His Followers.

Senator Henry NJ. Teller, of Colorado,
the leader of the silver forces at the
Republican convention, spent the day
very quietly at the residence of friend
in the suburbs of the city. He will not
come into town until tomorrow morn
ing, by which time the Colorado dele
cation will have arrived, and the sena-
tor will have a conference with them,
Until shat Is done he does not care to
talk for publication except in the most
general manner.
1T would be presumptuous on my
part" said MIR. Teller, "to make any
statement as to what I or those who
believe as do. would do in the event of
the convention not declaring for that
which we believe to be right and abso-
lutely essential for the best interests Of
the country.
~ see by the morning papers that
the Indications point strongly to the
adoption of a platform in favor of the
existing standard. The general opinion
appears to he that the word gold Is to
be omitted. / hardly thought that the
men who are engaged In the business
Of constructing financial planks would
be 80 foolish as to believe that they
could omit the word gold and declare
for the existing standard thereby maxi
Ing people believe that 1t will be any,
thing else than declaration for the
gold standard. The silver men in the
convention will not be misled by this
construction of financial plank, nor
will the people at large mlsinterrxet

esce In the committees conclusion, for
we have won a practical victory: but
We would have preferred to have all our
men seated"
1t may be said in this connection that
oil talk Of bolt Of the New York men
from the convention Is at an end. Mr..
Platt will not press the matter any fur
ther II the convention shall approve the
national committees action. 1t really
represents loss to Governor Morton of
only three and half votes out Of pos
sible twelve. This means that Mr.. Platt
with his friends will remain in the con-
vention and participate in its delibera-
tions. What Mr.. Platt and his follow
ers will do when the presidential CAM
paign actively begins is another ques-
tion, although 1t is asserted that they
will perform with cheerfulness any po-
ltical duty that may be assigned them.
FINANCIAL PLANK AGREED UPON
The impression is growing tonight
that Hobart. of New Jersey, Is in the
lead for the v!ce-presidency and the
Mckinley men talk of him as the nomi-
nee.
I'VE favor the maintenance Of the ex-
isting gold standard and are opposed to
free coinage Of silver except by interna-
tional agreemnt for bimetallism with
the leading commercial nations Of the
world"
This Is the text of the financial plank
upon which Mr.. Platt and his friends
agreed at a conference which adjourn
ed late toni0ht and which was attended
by leading eastern men and a number
from the middle western states 1t was
decided that the fight would be kept
up for this plank In the platform and
Mr.. Platt stated he believed such a
plank would be inserted and that the
so-called sound money" men would
abandon their position Of insisting up
on plank that meant gold, but which
did not say so in positive terms.

There Is openly expressed dissatisfac.
ton among the Platt men this morning
that Governor Morton should have
chosen Chauncey NJ. Depew, as the
medium through whom to announce his
determination not to accept the nomina-
ton for the vice presidency. They can
not understand why the governor IL he
desired that his wishes in regard to the
vice presidency should be made known.

managing his campaign with that fact,
They make no secret Of their displeasure

The Platt men deny that any concert.
ed action will be taken by them looking
to the nomination Of General BENJAMIN
F. Tracy. of Brooklyn. for the vice presi-
dency. 1t would appear from the frank
expressions which fell from the lips of q
number of these men that General Tracy
Is not popular with them. They don't

II Is evident that he is not the man of

a candidate for second place. They say
however that II the convention should

Ex-Judge j. Franklin Fort, one of the
New Jersey delegates, who has been se-
lected to present Mr.. Hobart's name to
the convention. Is enthusiastic over the
bright outlook for New Jerseys favorite
son. At that states Headquarters this
afternoon Judge Fort said:
THE HOPE OF NEW JERSEY.
Yes, New Jersey wants Mr. Hobart's 9
nomination. 1t would do wonders for
US politically. For the past three years
we have carried our state and with Mr..
Hobart on the ticket we will be lifted out
OF the doubtful columns"
The supporters of the vice presidential
aspirations Of Mr. Henry Clay Evans, of
Tennessee. resumed their efforts in
earnest this afternoon. Every newly
arriving delegate was taken In tow i'm
mediately after registering and piled
with arguments concerning the expe-
diency of placing a distinct representa-
tive OF the south upon the ticket. Par
ticular attention was paid to those dele
gates who had been previously ap-
preached in the interests of General Ho-
bart. of New Jersey and to these the ar
gument was directed that New Jersey
was safe for Mckinley without any
special inducements being offered to
secure its support; that New York was
In the same position; while that on the
other hand the nomination of Col Evans
would insure the vote of Tennessee in
the electoral college for the Rpubli-
cans and possibly that Of Alabama also.
Friends of the Tennessee candidate
claimed this afternoon that they were
making very satisfactory progress.
General McAlpin's candidacy is not
viewed altogether with favor by some of
the New York delegation. Mr.. Chaun-
cey Depew speaking on the subject this
afternoon remarked that every vote
asked for McAlpin was quivalent to one
vote taken away from Morton.
