Little Nimrod Davis Is Dead and His
Parents Too Poor to Bury Him.


The Davis family, mentioned IN The
Times recently, have had the sorrow of
death added TO their poverty and distress,
and their condition Is now pitifui in the ex-
trcme.
james Davis lives with his wife and two
children at No l. "a Nstreet southeast. The
third child, little Nimrod. after lauguish-
ing for more than u year, died last Saturday,
aud the family are without means to bury
the little one.
Mr.. Davis, sober and industrious young
mechanic, had his arm crushed off under the
wheels OF freight train several weeks ago
while at lexington seeking employment to
support his wife and children. This inca
pacitated him from work.
The death of Nmrod is an additional
blow, and comes at a time whenth Davises
are without food, money or fuel. Unless
the Christian public extend help promptly
to the bereaved and suffering family, it is
not known how the dead child Will be
buried.
Police Lieut.. McCathran, OF the Fifth
precinct, has written letter. stating that
the family is destitute and deserving. The
Times will receive contributions for these
doubly bereaved people.

of New York. to-day made a statement
to the house committee on commerce In
the interest of the Spaulding Cable COM
pany. which Is competing with the Scrim-
ser company for the government subsidy
OF cable TO the Hawaiian islands and
Japan. General Swayne resented the
charge made against his company that IL
was under English influence and inspired
by Sir John Pender. He stated that his
company would meet any offer OF terms
made by the other company. The lowest
subsidy he was willing TO accept without
consultation with his company was sl6l.-
900 a year for 20 years. IL was not neees-
sary for such a company TO extend its
line. he said. because there were already
sufficient cable facilities between Japan
aud China

where they were supposed to be. This
cost poor Boulware his life.
There are suspicious that the Hope
hoist was set on fire, as no one can tell
how or where the fire started. Some
insist that Ii caught in or about the
blacksmith shop, while others disap-
prove of that theory and urge that the
fire must certainly have caught below
the tunnel level. as. when they at
tempted to get into the shaft, they were
driven back by the smoke. The shift
the seven men went to work on that IA
tai night was supposed to be the last
that would be worked on the property
for some time, and the few men who
were retained were close friends and
relatives of Martin Buckley. This op-
portunity presenting itself, his enemies
may have concluded to destroy every
one In the mine. 1t is known that the
cage had assembled to the surface only
a short time before the fire was discov-
cred and. had there been any fire about
the works. the prevailing opinion is
that the men who came up on the cage
at that time would have seen IL.
The state mine inspector arrived In
town tonight. He is in consultation
with Superintendent Bach and Fore
man Buckley. He will probably insti-
tute an investigation in the morning.

Corinto, Nicaragua, April 9, via. Gal
weston, Texas, April 10.-For several
hours on April and Z the insurgent

Boca, president of the revolutionary gov
ernment of Nicaragua, cannonaded the
troops sent by the government of Hon
duras at Chinandega- The bombardment,
however, did not dislodge the soldiers.
who were sent by Honduras to the as
sistance of the government of President
Zelaya. At Elviejo an insurgent force
from Leon is thanking Nagarote and
threatening to attack Managua, the cap
ital of Nicaragua. The government
troops have been twice engaged with this
force of Leonists. A few men have been
killed on both sides, but President Ze-
layas force was not strong enough to
drive back the enemy and returned TO
Managua unsuccessful.
A small detachment of Zelaya's troops
has occupied Souce, a small town about
"A leagues out of Leon, the headquarters
of the revolutionists. The British war
ship Comus. Captain Dyke, having on
board more than 200 officers and men, has
arrived here. but she will leave Corinto
to-day for San Juan del Sur. 1t is ex-
pected, however that the Comus will re-
turn here on Friday and remain at this
port until the revolution in Nicaragua is
decided one way or the other. The only
real fighting done so far was in the ear
ly part of the revolution, and it seems to
have sickened both sides. The insurgents
have the largest quantity of arms and
they are of a more modern description
than those of President Zelaya, but the
latter has, up to the present, suffered
from lack of ammunition, though he has
hitherto been well supplied with money
from Managua and Grenada, in particu-
lar. There is already much grumbling at
the inaction of President Zelaya's army
and threats have been heard to cut off
hrs supply of funds unless some forward
movement is shortly commenced and
something tangible is accomplished.

Helena, April 10.-The Helena
Trades and Labor assembly, at a
meeting held tonight, adopted the fol-
lowing resolutions:
Whereas. the Anaconda Standard, in
its issue of April 3. 1896. has seen fit
to attack the Clerks union of the city
of Anaconda, alleging that the clerks
had asked for the publication in its
columns Of an advertisement reflect
ing upon the employees of certain busi-
ness houses in that place; therefore
Resolved, That we regret to see the
Standard arrayed against any section
of organized labor, but the fact that 1t
has no non-union men in it's own en-
ploy would seem to indicate that its
intentions along this line are not really
as serious as the facts in the case would
imply, and we trust that the matter at
issue between itself and the Clerks
union may be amicably adjusted"

surgents with loss OF 30 killed and
many wounded. The troops lost IS killed
and 26 wounded. The insurgents drew the
troops into an ambuscade in a densely
wooded ravine. Behind earthworks. COM
pletely masked with brush. the insur-
gents awaited the troops. Scouts were
sent forward. the Spanish command was
allowed to pass. but when the troops
were well inside the ambuscade a dyna-
mite bomb was suddenly hurled into their
ranks. killing several and wounding 9TH
ers, besides almost causing a panic. At
first the Spanish infantry gave way, be-
ing taken so completely by surprise and
seeing many soldiers falling without be-
ing able to do anything but fire into the
deep woods from which came the flashes
and reports which told of the fire OF the
insurgents. Later. however. the troops
were rallied and made a splendid dash
forward and up the side of the hills over
the earthworks, driving the insurgents
before them at the point OF the bayonet
and shooting them down as they fled.
Thus the enemy was quickly silenced and
the troops captured and razed the insur-
gents breastworks on both sides OF the
ambuscade. where they found a number
of boxes OF abandoned ammunition and
several rifles.
a column OF gen d'armes and volun-
teers has been engaged with a detach-
ment OF about 600 insurgents under the
leadership Of Capitole. at the farm OF

captured a quantity of arms. Later the
