No Law. No Order.

New York, May IA dispatch to the
Herald from Salonica says: An En-
glishman who arrived here last night
from Volo, where he had been four
| days, says that the scene of panic and
confusion are indescribable. Law and
order have disappeared and all sem
blance Of order is gone. The town is
strewn with baggage and people are
clamoring and waiting for ships which
do not come. Rifles are being promis
cuOusly served and cartridges are
thrown in heaps in the streets and the
people fill their pockets with them.
The Englishman saw the Greek
troops alight at Velestino. Fugitives
rushing in without money nor provis-
ions intermingled with the soldiers,
who had thrown their arms away so
as not to impede their fight. He also
saw the caotain Of an American shin
who left them on the 2Sth. He said the
people were terribly bitter against the
royal family, and would kill any of
its members if they could get at them.
They accused Prince Constantine of
having betrayed the army and being
in collision with the Russians.
The latest he heard was that the king
had taken refuge on a Russian war
ship. The streets We're full of armed
people, shops having been plundered.

PORT Of BANES.
1T HAS BEEN RECOVERED By
THE SPANIARDs.
Combined Army and Naval Forces
Under General Gomez Ruberte
and Admiral Navarro Did the
Work

Havana. via Key West May 1.-The
held by General Calixto Garcia and
5000 Cubans ever since the Laurada
landed Roloff's expedition, has been
recovered by the Spanish combined
army and naval forces under General
Gomez Ruberte and Admiral Navarro.
The Spanish forces combined at Nipe
and General Gomez Ruberte formed
his forces, consisting of two columns.
including 200 marines, 400 navy and
1,400 infantry. These columns boarded
the Spanish fleet under the command
of Admiral Navarro and, protected by
artillery, landed under a heavy fire
from the insurgents musketry at RAJ
mon Peninsula. off Banes, losing dur
ing the removal of the troops one
killed and Il wounded
Meanwhile the marine forces IN
armed boats were sent to recoDDoitrc
at the entrance of the port of Banes.
They succeeded in removing three wire
cables and torpedoes. The Neuva Es-
pana was the first boat 10 enter the
port of Banes. The Ligera followed
with Admiral Navarro General Ru-
berte and his adjutants on board. The
Spanish columns then advanced. pro-
tected by fire from the Neuva Espana.
and ultimately captured the Cuban for
tifications With loss of 40 men.
Tne gunboats then communicated
with Santiago de Opico who. with 80
men. commanded an ironclad fort.
Within this fertilization his men had
heroically defended themselves during
a 45-days' siege. The fort was con-
stantly surrounded by the insurgents
who. however, failed TO reach the
stronghold, which was to some extent
protected by wire netting. The Cuban
forces were at all times too far re-
moved from the Qualifications to do any
serious injury to the fort. Their artfi-
lery was short of range, due to the
great height, of the ridges. De Opico
denies having received any water sup
ply from the Cubans, and says that
when tie L.aurada entered port Au
Banes, he sent an armed boat with 90
men out in the harhor. Eie claims that
the I.arrada attempted to ram this
boat and that the men were compelled
TO seek refuge on a nearby quay. The
Laurada then proceeded to the interior
of TIE harbor, landing the expedition
out of reach of fire from the fort, re-
in port "a hours. The cruisers
and Nueva Espara re-
manned at Banes for the purpose of !
protecting ts,e town of Banes from
further attacks
The forts built in the interior of
Banes and the wharves have been de-
stroyed and viii be reconstructed at
the entrance of the harbor, within easy
reach for defense and supply thus pre- !
venting the future landing of expedi-. |
lions.

st. Johns, n. F., May 1.-The French
brigantine Ammade, Captain Forth,
from St. Malo, arrived at st. Pierre to-
right, bringing four survivors of the
lost brigantine Valiant, which foun-
dered after striking an iceberg off the
Grand Banks on the might of April "a.
These four were the only survivors of
q men who left the sinking Valiant in
a ships lifeboat, II having persisted
as result of exposure and frost bites.
The bodies of the II dead men were
thrown overheard. The four Survivors
claim to have kept themselves alive by
eating the flesh and drinking the blood
OF IL DOG belonging to the Valiant. This
dog. they say, they took with them
when they left the ship. They were
absolutely without water, provisions,
oars, sails and proper clothing when
they left the brigantine. They said
that they had only time to jump from
their berths into the lifeboat and that
no opportunity was afforded them to
make even slight provision against
cold and starvation.
The II men who died suffered eXcru-
eating torments. The survivors seem
to have Jared little better. All four
OF the men are very weak. Two of
them will lose all of their limbs and
the other two will lose their feet as a
result of the frost bites. The men tell
a story of a fierce struggle on board
the ship for places in the boats, some
30 of the crew going down with the
wreck. A somewhat similar fight oe-
CURED on board the lifeboat, the men
quarrelling about the division of the
flesh of the dog, which was killed or
the morning of the third day when
four men had already persisted. Three
died the next day, six the next and
four the day previous to their rescue.
The rescue occurred at midnight en-
the sixth day They were so exhausted
that they found il almost impossible
to shout when they saw the lights of
the brigantine Ammede, which came
near running them down in the dark
ness.
The men say they saw nothing of
the missing lifeboats after leaving the
Valiant. but they are Of the opinion
that three ,boatloads escaped from the
wreck besides the one already saved.
The captain persisted. The survivors
rescued from the life boat by the Am
mede assert that none of the bodies
were mutilated and that in this case
no cannibaiism was attempted.
The condition of the four men pre-
viously rescued continues UNCHANGED.
The circumstances surrounding this
latest rescue are such as to induce the
friends of the missing members of the
crew to believe that other boats may
yet be picked up.

JONES AND THE TARIFF.
NEVADA'S SENATOR TACKLES
ALLISON AND ALDRICH.
Goes Over the Proposed Tariff Bill,
and Suggests, With a Mild Hint,
Several Changes That Should be
Made.

Washington. May Senator Jones, of
Neveda the independent member of the
senate committee on finance, spent sew
eral hours with Senators Allison and
AIdrich. representing the Republican sub
committee or tariff today.

Senator Jones presented the demands,

of the Rocky mountain and Pacific coast
state He asked for an increase of the
duty on third-class woods. beginning at
cents q pound for the poorer quality
and adding one-half of cent pound
for each additional sent of selling value.
but agreed to a slight reduction on h~St
and secord-claSS woods. There is good
reason to believe that changes will be
made in accordance with these sugces-
tons. If carried into effect they would
result in putting duty of or IL cents
a pound on the more valuable of third
class woods. He also asked the COM
mittee to stand by its decision for duty

He also suggested the following changes
in the first schedule of the bill: Increase

soda from th-ee-cuarters OF a cent to l
cent pound: caustic soda from one-half
to l cert per pound. sylicate of soda
from three-eighths to one-half cent per

He proposed the following substitute for

The Cubans, in view of the combined
attack of the army and navy, aban-
doned their stronghold without further
resistance, leaving a large quantity of
ammunition.
The report that Quintin Bandora has
passed to the westward and that he is
now in camp between Alquizar and
Artemesia, with 900 men fully equipped
with new rifles is confirmed. They are
awaiting the arrival of bands of in
surgents from Matanzas and Santa
Clara.
The government has strengthened
the military forces in the province of
Havana by the addition of 81 squad
rons of cavalry and Is battalions of in
fantry. This unusual activity on the
part of the troops in the province of
Havana is regarded as very signifi-
cant.
Editors of the impartial. Heraldo and
Liberal have been sued by the govern
ment for republishing articles sent out
from Havana by way of Key West The
government is now six months in ar
reaTs in the payment of the troops, and
there is much dissatisfaction in conse-
quence.
