bed. On the bed lay Miss Manning dead.
Charles Flynn, who had been keeping
company with her for some time. was
writhing in pain from a bullet wound.
He died soon. The fire. which probably
resulted from a pistol shot among the
bed clothes, was extinguished before Sc
rious damage was done.

WASHINGTON, Nov. Alt is stated
at the navy department in extenua-

thought advisable to give publicity to
the possible weaknesses in the ship
just at the present juncture, when the

our naval and military establishments.
1t is learned that the investigation is
developing evidence of a somewhat
startling nature about the structural
strength of the ships hull which has
caused so much concern since her keel

thing about the recent flooding of the
ship was that the watertight doors
leaked and other compartments were

A DESPERATE BATTLE

Said TO be Raging la PInar del Rio Be
tween Spauiards Under WcyIer and the
insurgents Under MaceO-rhe Former
Making Desperate but Futile Efforts to
Dislodge the insurgents.
NEW YORK, Nov. 16 "A Jacksonville
(Fla.) special says: Cipher dispatches
just received report fierce battle in
Pinar del Rio. It is believed that
Maceo and WeyIer have met. The re-
ports of firearms have been almost in
eessantly heard for several hours. No
details of the engagement are given
other than the statement that one of
the most decisive engagements fought.
since Cuba struck her first blow for
freedom is being waged.
The dispatch adds: ''Insurgent
forces are well located in the hills and
are pouring hot fire into the Spanish
troops. which have repeatedly been
driven back in attempts to capture the
Cuban strongholds. The insurgents
have the advantage of position. being
at a great elevation, but the Spaniards,.
are making most desperate attack.
From distance it looks as if sew
eral towns are IN flames. The sky Is
lighted up by the constant fire of the
artillery.
Whether or not Maceo himself is.
directing the insurgents tactics can
not at this time be learned. An out
come of the engagement would be inn
possible to predict. for at present both
sides are fighting as if they intend to
stick at it until the last man falls.
There is no doubt that the hills of
Pinar del Rio will be dyed with blood
before either side claims victory"
The dispatch then describes the
tactics of the Spanish forces as en-
deavoring to surround each elevation
separately in order TO gain a ground
of vantage. but adds that the insur-
gent lnaneuvers in each case are be-
1ieved to have prevented any such re-.
sult.

Ireland.


ROME, Nov. 13.-There is reason to
believe that the rumors of the removal
of Archbishop Ireland, of st. Paul,
Mimi, are unfounded, although the
archbishop has fallen into disgrace at
the vatican. The case of the deposit
ton of an archbishop or bishop is an
extreme rarity, only one of the kind
having occurred during the 1s veal rs
of the papacy of Leo Kill, and in this
instance only when the prelate had
become almost maniac.
The vatican has received the pro-
posal of three names for the rector.

Washington to succeed Bishop Keane.

w orthy of the position, and the choice
will consequently be difficult
