SMALLPOX AND THE FEVER
Still Ragiug 10 the Provinces of
Cuba
An Insurgent Defeat Reported-General
Bernal Grows Discouraged and Asks
to be Returned Home to Spain.

WASHINGTON, Oct. lid Burgess,
sanitary inspector of the marine hos
pital service at Havana, in a recent re-
port says that yellow fever continues
to be epidemic there, and he is informed
1t is so in most of the places where
the Spanish soldiers are found. During
September there were 1884 deaths in
Havana from the disease. Smallpox,
instead of diminishing, increases daily,
not only in Havana, but in the suburbs
The doctor expresses the fear that it
will be many months before the scourge
is over. He also points out the danger
from yellow fever to vessels discharging
cargoes at Tallapiedra wharf, Havana,
because of its close proximity to an old
and badly infected military hospital.
THE USUAL THING.
HAVANA, Oct. n.-A meager report
has been received of another important
engagement between the Spanish forces
under Gems. Echague and Antonio Ma
Geo, in which it Is claimed the insurgents
sustained very heavy losses and the
losses of the SpaniardS We're admittedly
severe.
The battle occurred October 8. Gen.
Echague reports that he found the in
surgents very strongly entrenched un-
der Maceo and himself on the heights of
Gualitos, south of Cacarajcara, in Pinar
del Rio. These heights We're bombarded
for three hours with all the means at the
command Of the Spanish commander.
At the end of that time he took the
heights by assault and put'many Of the
insurgents to death with the bayonet,
causing them a heavy loss. 1t is suppos-
ed they suffered still further loss by a
heavy cannonade which was directed at
their retreat.
BERNAL DISCOURAGED.
CHICAGO, Oct. ia special to the
Times Herald from Key West, Fla,
says: The sudden return of Gen. Bernal
to Havana from the northern coast of
the province of Pinar del Rio, where he
was sent by Gen. Weyler to command
the Spanish forces in the recent engage
ments against Antonio Maceo, has caus-
ed a profound sensation in Havana.
Gen. Bernal has returned on sick
leave and has asked to be sent to Spain,
being thoroughly disheartened over the
result of the campaign just inaugurated
against the insurgents in Pinar del Rio.
The general reports that Maceo has
thoroughly reorganized his forces in the
last few months and entrenched himself
in the most commanding positions in the
mountain Businesses, and that any at
tempt to dislodge him would be sure to
result in disastrous failure and whole
sale slaughter of the Spaniards.
The folly of attempting to dislodge
Maceo has been fully demonstrated, Gen.
Bernal said, in all the recent engage
ments. when from commanding posi-
tions the Spanish officers were picked off
by sharpshooterS and the troops lacking
leaders became demoralized and were
slaughtered like sheep.

THE ACME CLUB WHEEL MEN
Again Capture the Annual Ten. Mile
Road Rsce
inforced by the Taking Of Nine Of
the Place Prizes

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1.-THE an
nual ten-mile road race of the Califor
mia Associated Cycling Clubs, which
took place today over the High street.
Haywards course, was unquestionab.y
the most successful road event ever held
on the Pacific coast. One hundred and
sixty men We're dispatched by Starter
Fawcett, and of this number eighty sue
ceeded in finding the finishing tape.
For the third consecutive time the
race was captured by the Acme club
wheelmen; but, not content with first
place, they scooped first time and nine
of the place prizes. The initial event in
1894 was won by George Brouillett, last
year McDougall was the winner and
this time it devolved upon E. j. Smith
to get in the honor. Two years ago the
Acmes tied for first time as we'll as

Oakland club totally clinched the event
by capturing both of the coveted posi-
tions in the most decisive manner. To
Squires went the credit of making the
fastest mark-24 minutes and 20 seconds
lowering the coast record and miss
irg the worlds record by only a narrow
margin.
The course was in better condition
than it has been before. For the first
time within months strong wind was
blowing down the course all the morn
ing, whereas it does not usually arise
until afternoon. The prize list was the
best ever offered by the association and
the entry list the largest on record

ton of broken leg and a fractured
collar bone the many accidents that
occurred were of minor consequence.
Wyman of the Acme club struck Gooch

out and was picked up with his collar
bone broken. Near of the Santa Rosas
also sustained bad fall near the start
which resulted in the breaking if his
right leg below the knee.

DEMOCRATIC DOCTRINE
AS 1t Appears to a Civil Service Com
missioner

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.-John B.
Proctor of Kentucky, the chairman of
the United States civil service commits
sion, has made public an article review
ing the history of the Democratic party s
position on the question of the gold
standard. Mr.. Proctor says he has been
at some pains to collect authentic infor-
nation regarding the coinage laws of
the past, which satisfied him that the
trainers Of the constitution and the
founders Of the government were united
and determined that the coined value of
our gold and silver money should cor
respond with the market value of the
bullion contained. This, Mr.. Proctor
says, is demonstrated by the writings
of Jefferson, Monroe and Hamilton. Mr..
Proctor quoted many high Democratic
authorities in support Of his position
and concludes by saying that many 9TH
ers might be cited to show that the
free silver plank in the Chicago platform
is a violation of Democratic principles
and that no man advocating fiat money
has right to call himself Democrat.
