Practicine Economy.

Norfolk, Va, Feb. 19-The crew of the United States steamer Baltimore which arrived at the Norfolk navy yard last night at II o'clock from San Francisco, will be paid off Saturday, their terms of enlistment having expired. It will take $46 900 to pay these men off. The train in which they were transported across the continent was the first through train over this route from the Pacific to the At lantic, the route being over the Southern Pacific to New Orleans, thence over the Southern railway to this port. This mode of transporting sailors Is a new one, and in this instance has saved the navy de- partment large sum of money. As the men are all serving overtime. on their en- listments, sthey receive one-fourth addi- tional pay for such overtime. The sav- Ing of time by the route over the old route, via the Isthmus of Panama, being about twenty-five days, the government practically saves twenty-five days pay on each of the 120 men at the advanced rate of Day f

A Railroad Engine Explodes.

Utica, N. Y., Feb. 19.-The boiler of the locomotive drawing the New York and Philadelphia express train on the Delaware Lackawanna and Western road exploded near Cassville shortly af- ter II o'clock this morning. The engine is known as "culm burner" and the engineers cab is directly over the center of the boiler. The engineer was John Keech of Binghamton and he was blown into shreds. The fireman, John Lewis, also of Binghamton, was so badly hurt that he died soon after being taken from the wreck. The engine was torn to pieces and the trucks left the track, the whole mass of twisted and broken iron toppling over into the ditch. The cars composing the train remained on the track. The shock to the passengers was a severe one, but serious injury was not sustained.

Urged to Appoint Joint Commission.

London, Feb. 19.-The Westminster Ga zette publishes an article urging Lord Salisbury not to further delay the reply of Great Britain to the proposal to ap- point joint British and American-Ven- ezuelan commission. In the course of the article the Gazette says that England Is free to accept any conciliation pro posed by America, in the way of which there is no obstacle, except the possible objection of Venezuela to Great Britain and the United States taking the matter out of her hands and treating it as a question between themselves. For Eng land, the Gazette thinks there is great advantage in settling the questions with the United States instead of Venezuela If America claims the dispute as her own she must assume the attendant lia- bility of becoming surety for Venezuela England at least has nothing to com ,lain of

IT WILL HELP THE CUBAN CAUSE

Havana, Feb. 17,-va Key West, Fla, Feb 19.-The insurgents seem to be con- centrating their forces in Havana prov ince. Maceo and Gomez are now together near San Jose Las Lajas, east of the strong line. Maceo entered the province a week ago and remained west of San Felipe three days. He then crossed the line between Havana and Batabano at place called Vapor. near Quivican. He had rear guard skirmish with Colonel Seguras' cavalry Sunday, The latter fol- lowed Maceo east to the Culebra hills, where the rebels made a stand and re- sisted the Spanish artillery fire. The off, cial report said twelve insurgents were killed. The governments losses were not given. Linares had an encounter with the united parties Monday. At the same time Maceo arrived from the west the other leaders entered the province with large bands of insurgents from the east Castillo Agurre and Alvarez with their united forces, lately operating in Matan- gas, came along the north coast. They have 5000 men. Quintin Bandera, said to have 2000 men, entered the province far ther south. The rebel force in Havana province is now estimated at 16,000 men.
 The burning of the first three railway stations out of Havana on the Matanzas road caused some excitement here Sun day, while the troops were rushed across Bay Regla prepared to stop the further advance of the rebels. Guanabacoa and Marianao. suburban towns have been heavily fortified. Many thousand troops now cover the approaches to Havana. The authorities expec. no attack upon the city, but are prepared for any emer- gency. The citizens feel no uneasiness
 Weylers proclamation has created a decided sensatio The Spaniards ap- platd 1t and say it was just what was expected and also what is necessary to put down the rebellion. The Cubans say it IS prelude to harsh measures similar to those in the last war, which will drivd many peaceful men into the field who 6thes wise would not fight, and that the exodus to the United States will increase. The Olivette continues to bring five or ten passengers down and carry 200 to 250 to Key West and Tampa.
 The annual three days carnival which ended yesterday was complete failure, owing to the lack of money, absence of the festive spirit and the order of the captain-general prohibiting the use of masks.

Kentucky Deadlock.

Frankfort, Ky, Feb. 19The support CTS of Senator Blackburn, while not sur prised at the tenor of Secretary Carlisle's letter declining to assist Blackburn. are angry over the cool and deliberate rebuff they have received. The result of it is to widen the breach between the re- spective factions on the financial ques- tion in this state and also to intensity the animosity between the friends of the secretary of the treasury and of the pres rent senator. The gold men are jubilant over Mir. Carlisle's course and say that had he lent Blackburn helping hand 1t would have been of no use to send a sound money delegation to the national convention. The twenty-sixth joint bal lot for senator resulted: Hunter 60. Blackburn 60, scattering 8: necessary to a chice. 66.
