THE RiSiNG IN CHI7RAL.
Strong Re-enforcements Sent to NAL
akand Camp to hesist the
7ribesmen.

SlMLA, INDIA, July 29.-There is abund
ant evidence that the rising in Chit-al is
on large scale. A determined attack has
been made upon Makaland Camp each
night since Monday, the fighting lasting
until daybreak. Parties from the hills
harass the pickets during the daytime.
One picket of the Punjab Infantry was
driven in with loss of twelve killed AID
several wounded.
The fighting has been desperate. Mon
day tribesmen penetrated a part Of the
camp, but were driven back after losing
thirty killed. Tuesday they lost ninety
killed. Wednesday they were REINFORCED
and again attacked the camp with great
determination. They charged right up to
the sappers in the breas tworks with un-
availing valor, losing heavily. The Sikhs
and Punjabs fully maintained their repu-
tation, but were too fatigued to pursue
the tribesmen.
Strong re- endorsements Of British and
native troops are nearing the camp. An
other attack is expected tonight, but no
anxiety is felt. In three days fighting
one British officer was killed and ak
wounded. The Government. recognizing
that operations must now be on a consid-
cradle scale, has decided that the troops
now at Malakand with the reinforce
mants shall be formed into two brigades
with complete staff.
A prominent MahomInedan named Ra-
soul has been arraigned in Lucknow on
charge of sedition. In addressing meet
ing of co-reIigionists, he congratulated
the Sultan of Turkey on his victories
over the Greeks. and insulted Queen Vic
toria and the British Government. He
declared that but for the Sultan's for
bearance the '.old woman's ribs would
have been broken years ago."
LONDON, ENG, July GA Bombay
dispatch says the British camp at Malak-
and has again been attacked by tribes
lnen. The British loss was thirteen killed
and thirty wounded. The dispatch also
says the garrison is short of ammunition.

ADVANCING ON HAVARA.
Bonderas and His Army Moving Vest
ward-Competitor Case Still
in hbeyance.

HAVANA, CUBA, July 29.-General
Quentin Banderas. whom Weyler reported
killed in an encounter a Papaya Heights,
Santa Clara province. is advancing west
ward with an army. According to a Cuban
official report circulated here, he is now
near the boundary of Havana province
and intends to advance on The CAPITAL.
a cable dispatch from the Government
has been received by WeyIer ordering him
to delay the final decision of the tribunal
in the Com petitor case until the Cortes
adiousns. Nevertheless he is to report the
proceedings as ended, when the Cortes
ad journs the case. against the prisoners
will be opened again and sentence passed.
This strange order gives rise to the belief
that it is the real intention of the Govern
ment to avoid criticism OF the opposition
in Ihe Cortes to the passing OF the death
sentence upon the Competitor prisoners.
Near Corral Falso, Matanzas province,
The insurgents have captured from Span
ish columns a large quantity OF rifles and
three cannons.
At Nina Sonita, Marianao, within sight
of Havana city, fifteen Spanish soldiers
were Riled in skirmish.
Atrocities committed upon the paciticos
continue daily. On the Limones planta.
ton, Mantapzas province, Spanish
guerrilla force commanded by Laurentino
Garcia massacred several pacificos and
gouged out the eyes OF one woman with
bayonet.
NEW YORK, N. Y. July 29.-The
Herald's Havana special says: A large
Cuban force raided the suburbs last night.
Several wounded Spanish soldiers were
brought into Havana and removed to the
hospitals after the engagement. 1t is
reported that several were killed. The
reticence of the officials prevents any
knowledge of the result of the attack be-
coming general. 1t is fact, however,
that great damage was done. The Cubans
used dynamite guns. They retired in
few hours, after badly soaring the Spanish.

cAUS7ic CRITICISM or FOSTER.
Professor Elliott Says the Eering Sea
Commissioner Is inexperienced
and iQnoraBt.

LONDON, ENG, July 29.-The Chroni-
cle's Washington correspondent cables
that Professor Elliott of the Smithsonian
Institution has written caustc letter to
Assistant Secretary of State Day criticiz-
ing Hon. John w. Foster for writing that
notorious dispatch 10 Embassador Hay
anent the sealing question. Professor
Elliott says the dispatch lays the State
Department open to u crushing reply from
the Canadians, and he warns Hay that he
will find himself in the same notifying
position as Blaine in 1890, when Canada
promptly rebuked his letter.
Elliot says: inexperienced, ignorant
men should not write of matters regard
ing which they know no more than par
rots. Foster is utterly ignorant of the
truth regarding the salient features of the
seal question. That letter of May 10 was
like all preparations from his hands on
this subJect-full of gross errors. His
dullness In making up the American case
In 1892 cost the United States the shame
iul and numilia!Ing defeat we met at
Paris in 1893.
This whole sealing business, from the
day the trouble bgan in 1890 to date, has
not been In the hands of competent men
on our side for single moment 1t has
been and is now the sport OF the Cana
dians, and the ianguid contempt OF the
British Ministry is all it receives when it

FREEMAN THE CHAMPION.
The Stanford Man Defeats YaIe's Ex-
Champion at Tennis in
Santa Monica

SANTA MONICA, CAL, July 29.-This
has been the most important day Of the
tennis tournament. Public interest ran
high and large numbers of spectators
were attracted. In the forenoon play COM
menced in ladies' singles between Miss
Gffen and Miss Knight. The game was
pretty one, with Miss Giffcn, the win
ner, in a score OF Cd, GO Miss knight
generously SAID that she had never played
better, but that her competitor was the
superior player.
In open doubles there were two excel
lent matches. In the first OSBORN and
Young defeated Acker and Wallace by a
score OF 6-1. 6-1, and then, with victory
still perching on their banner, won honors
over Barry and Wilson in score of Ga,
6-1.
Young made many good plays and re-
ceived unstinted cheering. He played
with the vigor and skill DISPLAYED when
he won the championship in 1887.
This afternoon found the tennis
courts crowded, for the battle for the
championship was to be fought. The
grand stand was not ample enough for the
crowd, which overhowed into all available
corners. Mrs. Corsop, assisted by the
other ladies OF the casino, served tea to
friends and to vanquished and victor
alike. The battle for the chs pionship
contained elements OF interest beyond the
usual game of tennis, for Cravens is ex-
champion of Yale, while Freeman is a
Stanford man.
In the first set both players were eau
tlous and Cravens showed the effect of too
much previous playing, being slightly
crippled. The set stooo 6-1 in favor OF
Freeman.
The second set was livelier and won a
round OF applause, especially for the STAN
ford man, who won in score Ga. Cravens
played we'll in the third set and defeated
Freeman; score 6-3. The fourth set,
which ended the battle, was full OF interest.

Reason able Time to BE Giren for Redemp-
tom of the Property
OMAHA NEBR., July 29.-The decree of
sale of the Union Pacific Railway under
the foreclosure proceedings instituted
against it by the United States was passed
upon by Judge Walter Sanborn in the
United States Court here this morning.
There was no obi ction to the entrance of
the Ames- Dexter decree, and after few
corrections had been made in the printed
copy OF the decree it was passed upon by
the court.
The entrance of the Governm ent decree
drew forth vigorous de bate between ex-
Governor Hoadley, special counsel for the
United States, and Wiaslow S. Pierce,
counsel for the reorganization committee.
The debate was upon the rights of the
court to reserve to the United States all
rights Of the Government not expressly
stated in the decree. 1t was decided in
favor of the Government.
The upset price under The first m ortgage
will be $50, 637 450. Judge William D.
Cornish of ST. Paul win act as special mas
ter in the matter. He will sell the main
line, the 1904 miles OF road from Council
Bluffs to Ogden, and its immediate
branches in this city.
The date of sale will not be fixed until
twenty days shall have expired, the court
giving that much time to the Union Pa
cihc Railroad Company to redeem the
property. The date and other matters
connected with the sale will be fixed by
Judge Cornish.

DR.. E. F. Mclean Yields
to an Attack of Heart
Disease.
Expires Just After His FilIy,
TaluCa, Had Won the
Ohio Stakes.
Death Due to Excitement Over the
Claiming Of the Highly Priced
Animal.

OAKLEY, OHIO July 29.-The we'll
known horseman. DR.. E. F. Mclean. died
at the track here to-day of heart disease,
superlnduced by excitement over dis
pute regarding one of his horses. His fily
Taluca won the Ohio stakes, the four n
race. in a close and exciting finish from
Remember Me.
John Huffman, the owner of Remem-
ber Me, ran Taluca up after the race,
compelling DR.. Mclean to pay $3.50
above the sum at which the filly was en-
tered in the race. it cos ting $1750 to retain
her. This was $50 in excess of the purse.
Tom Blackburn, McLean's trainer, then
claimed Remember Me ct that fllys en-
tering price, paying the value of the stake
in addition. Huffman objected 10 giving
up his horse on a technicafity.
During the excitement DR.. Mclean sat
in the little timers stand. facing the crowd
in the grand stand. Apparently calm
and collected, he slowly famed himself.
Suddenly he seemed to sink down into
his chair. a call was made for physicians
and several responded. By this time the
horses with their brightly clothed jockeys
were on the track ready for the next race.
A delay was announced. A cluster of
track officials and others filed the tiny
stand. DR.. Mclean was assisted to Iy-
ing position on the floor, where he quietly
expired.
The officials then announced the last
race off as token of respect. The man
agement announced that the meeting
would close to-day instead of Saturday.

the first race to-day.

siVely to those following the subject
closely: FIRST, that the sugar trust would
make this large profit by reason OF the in
creased duty on sugar, and second, that IT
would not be compelled 10 pay out any OF
that profit in the proposed internal rev.
enue tax upon its sugar in stock, and
those who had calculated the profits
which 1t would make during the coming
year on this great accumulation OF sugar
say that the profits would be great and
the dividends large.
The result was the advance in sugar
stock, about which there has been so
much talk and denunciation, and which
advance was not due TO any permanent
advantage which the new tariff bill gives
to the trust, for, on the contrary. the diff
terence between raw and refined sugars
under the new bill, as already Indicated, is
l213 cents per 100 pounds, while under the
wilson law it is 2211 cents per 100 poupds.

MERRY AND
HIS MISSION
Personal Objection Not
Made to the Genial
Captain.
TeChniCaIitieS Presented by
the Diet of the Greater
Republic.
1t Is Thought That Opposition VIII
Be Withdrawn Until the Tangle
Is Stralghtened.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 29.-The
fact that Captain Merry of San Francisco
represented Nicaragua IN a consular capa-
city in the United States is the main rea-
son for the objection of the Diet of the
Greater Republic of Central America to
receiving him as Minister from the United
States. Nearly every country objects to
receiving as diplomatic representative
from another country any person who has
represented the frst-named country
abroad.
An exception was made by the United
States in the case of Frank Hastings who
returned here as secretary OF the Ha-
waiian legation after having been CON
sular officer for this country at Honolulu.
Another reason for the action of the Diet
concerns the peculiar diplomatic relations
existing between the United States and
Central America republics. Captain Mer-
ry is accredited to Nicaragua and Saliva
do-, but not to Honduras, the third coun-
try in the confederation. Another Minis
ter represents the United States in Hon
duras, Guatemala and Costa Rica.
The Greater Republic does not like this
distinction. 1t sent.a Minister to Wash
ington year ago, and he was received.
1t holds that Minister should be sent to
the Greater Republic. These points are
said to underlie the objection to Captain
Merry. but he cannot be accredited to the
Greater Republic because the appropria-
tion for his salary makes it necessary
that he shall be certified as Minister to
Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Salvador only
The State Department officials think the
Diet will withdraw its objections under a
promise that Congress will straighten out
the tangle.
At the first meeting of the new Nicar-
aqua Commission to-day it was agreed
that the commissioners would not leave
for Nicaragua to examine available routes
until later in the year, probably in Octo-
Der. The commission will spend the
interim here in examining the report OF
the first commission.

NEW YORK, n. Y, July 29.-The ex-
cursion boat Chancellor, with the T. J.
Kelly Association OF Jersey City on board,
vas run into and badly damaged by the
United States steamship Maine in the
East River to-day. The Chancellor was
smashed on her port bow and for long
distance back above the water line. She
continued up the East River. The Maine
passed the Battery about IL O'Clock, bound
for the anchorage off TompkinsYille.
The paiut was scraped off her bow. No
one on board the Chancellor was injured.
In seeking to avoid the collision the
Maine came in contact with pier. On
board the Maine no one could be found
who would talk about the collision. Draw
ing back from the pier, the Maine ran
into float belonging TO the New York,
New Haven and Hartford Railroad Com
pany, and upon which were ten freight
cars, part OF them loaded. A hole was
stove in the float, and il sank with its
cargo, after the crew had been taken off
by a tug.

Long Beach, two mouths ago. has raised
kuotty problem. The ships cargo con-
sist d OF wine shipped from San Francisco
to New Y ork, and the casks recovered on
the beach were sent there TO be sold for a
New York board of underwriters. The
auctioneers paid a special Government

but the question has been raised whether
the lax must not be paid to Pennsylvania
under existing license laws 1t is con-
tended by the auctioneers that the wine
is in original packages and cannot be sold
