IN CHETCO MOUNTAINS.
ID. Hartman Shot and Killed Near the
Oregon Border.

d. Hartman Shot and Killed Near the
Oregon Border.
Grants Pass, Jan. 27.-Somewhat
meagre particulars have reached this
city of a murder committed in the
Chetco mountains, about twenty-five
miles north of Chetco, CAL, On the
21st inst.
D. Hartman, an expert miner from
Groveland, N. Y, and man named
Jones had some difficulty, growing out
of dogfight, when, without any other
provocation than the mere disagree
ment, Jones seized a Winchester and
shot Hartman, killing him instantly.
Jones then left, and is supposed to be
headed this way, though SO far as
known no effort is being made to cap
ture him.
The shooting occurred at mining
camp, and was witnessed by but one
man, who had camped with Jones, and
who, in company with P. Costello, the
postmaster, at Smith River, Cal, took
the body to Chetco, where it is being
embalmed for shipment East.
Jones is described as man 5 feet 8
inches in height, weighing $50 pounds,
nearly bald-headed, with sandy COM
plexion. The name of Jones is be-
lieved to be assumed.

AN OLD BURIAL GROUND.
Hundreds Of Bones Unearthed IT
West Point.

Hundreds Of Bones Unearthed ut
West Point.
New York, Jan. ga special to
the Press from West Point says:
Bones by the hundred have been un-
earthed right under the officers club
rooms. They are all human bones, in
good condition, but nobody knows
when they were placed or how they got
there. It might have been half cen.
fury ago, but the probabilities are, judg-
ing from stories told by old residents.
that they are the bones of soldiers
killed in the Revolutionary war. 1t is
known that spies and tories hanged on
the plains were buried by the patriots
where the mess hall now stands. What
disposition will be made of them has
not yet been announced, but it is likely
they will be buried in the cemetery.
Coroner Miller, of Highland Falls,
got an inkling of the find, but as coro-
ners are allowed in West Point only
by permission of the authorities he has
small chance of holding an inquest, and
it is clearly evident that there was no
foul play in connection with the bury
ing of the bones. Colonel Ernest il
now in Washington, and it is probable
the matter will remain as it stands un-
til his return. In the meantime the
bones have been placed where no harm
can come to them.

RAN UPON A REEF.
The Fate Of the Elsa Cuban Relief
Expedition.


Norwalk, O., Jan. 29.-The follow
ing letter from George Lamkin, dated
Havana, received in this city, is the
first direct information from the ill
fated Cleveland Norwalk South Ameri-
can expedition, whose steamer, the
Elsa, was wrecked off the Cuban coast:
"After leaving Pasagoula we had a
beautiful run across the gulf up to 9:55
Saturday night, when the Elsa struck
the dreaded coral reef off the coast Of
Cuba, near San Antonio. was on
deck at the time. The coral reef does
not show above the surface of the wa
ter, and we could not see it. The cap
tain was away off the course.
"Well, the Elsa struck. We all got
away in small boats, saving nothing
but what we had on, and what was in
the upper cabin. We waited until
morning, and there being no land in
sight, we started toward the east and
rowed all day, reaching the coast at
night. We slept on the beach and on
the early morning Of Sunday we pulled
up the coast, looking for fresh water.
"After an hour of hard rowing a
Spanish man-of-war, on patrol, picked
us up and we were taken to the nearest
town, Arroyo, on the northeast coast,
where we were placed in a shed to
await a boat running along the coast
that would take US to Havana"

CURE FOR CONSUMPTION.
Wonderful Discovery Of Professor
GlanO, of Genoa.

Wonderful Discovery Of Professor
GlanO, OF Genoa.
New York, Jan. 29.-The unusual
interest taken by physicians and the
public in the treatment of pulmonary
tuberculosis, or consumption, as it is
commonly called, will be increased by
the news that serum has been discOv-
cred which, it is claimed, will prove
the absolute cure for the disease in it's
first stages, and will greatly benefit
patients and arrest the progress Of the
disease in its advanced forms.
The serum is the discovery of Pro-
lessor Maria Glano, of Genoa, Italy. A
small quantity was brought to this
country and physicians of st. Luke's
hospital began experimenting with it a
week ago. The serum is obtained from
the blood of horses which have been
inoculated with tuberculosis germs in
small quantities and continued under
this treatment for several months. Its
effect is to produce in the blood OF the
horse some quality of resistance to
death, which, when introduced into the
human system, sustains the resisting
power.
The serum theory is therefore exact
" opposite to the theory of vaccina-
ton, which introduces germs of the
disease itself into the system, and by
producing the disease in a mild form
renders the body impervious to its fur

Two Million Dollars Worth of Fhila-
delphia Property Destroyed.
Philadelphia, Jan. pa tiny spiral
of smoke curled out Of the cellar win
dow of big building On Market street
at $3.50 o'clock this morning. A few
hours later one Of the most valuable
blocks in the city had been consumed
in raging fame. 1t was the block
bounded by Market, Thirteenth, Fill
bert and Juniper streets, in the very
heart of the city. A few steps to the
right looms the massive city hall;
around the corner is the Pennsylvania
terminal, and directly across the way
John Wanamaker's great store stretches
from street to street. So fierce was the
flames and strong the wind, which aid
ed their work, that even this building,
distant the width Of Market street,
was saved almost by miracle from total
destruction, and Mr.. Wanamaker to-
night places his loss at 100000. The
total loss is variously estimated at
from 81, 900, 900 to 50, 500, 900, but in
the chaos and confusion now existing,
it is all but impossible to secure accu-
rate figures. The losses are very gen.
orally covered by insurance.

REFORM IN FINANCES,
Report Of the Committee ON Banr,r~
Laws.

Washington, Jan. 29.-The national
BOARD OF trade today adopted the report
OF the committee on banking laws. It
was the opinion of the committee that
there should be established consistent
and deliberately planned financial sys-
tenn.
The plan presented was briefly as
follows:
"First-Gold coin shall remain
standard money.
Second-Steps shall he taken to re-
tire all United States notes in such a
way as not to disturb business rela-
lions. National banks be allowed to
issue currency to the par value of their
bonds, the tax on the circulation shall
be reduced and the banks be allowed to
issue currency based on their assets,
under such national supervision and
restrictions as will make it safe, elias
tic and redeemable in gold at the bank
OF issue and at the city of New York.
"Third-Such banks of issue, with a
capital of $4,000 or more shall be au-
thorized to be established in towns and
villages of less than 5000 population. :"
The committee on the subject of
monetary commission, made report in
which congress is asked to create
commission to consist of eleven persons
appointed by the president, two of
whom shall be selected from the senate
committee on finance and two from the
house banking and currency committee.
OF the other seven members, two
shall be bankers of recognized expert
ence and ability, two agriculturists of
prominence and ability, two merchants
or manufacturers Of standing, the re-
naming member to be elected on ac-
count of recognized ability and learning
In the science of political economy. In
no event shall more than six members
be of the same political party
1t shall be the duty of this commits
sion to enter upon a thorough and COM
prehensive consideration of the bank
ing affairs of the United States and the
laws relating thereto. On or before
January 1, 1898, they shall make a
concise and exact report.
The commission shall frame a bill
to carry their recommendation into
effect. In case congress, for any rea-
son, fails to cause the appointment of
this commission the board shall ap-
prove the alternative plan of the In
dianapolis convention to appoint such a
commission itself.

The LOnd Postal Bill.

Washington, Jan. 26.-The senate
committee on postoffices and post roads
resumed the hearing on the Loud Sec
ond-class mail bill today. Orville j.
Victor, chairman of the New York
committee of publishers, said the bill
was to the interest of the press COM
panies and opposed to the interests of
the public, which demands good and
cheap literature. Victor called atten-
ton to a large amount of government
matter carried free which would, he
said, go far towards accounting for the
postoftice department deficit, and Great
ed a general laugh at the expense of
the committee by reading newspaper
extract characterizing most of this mat
ter as congressional buncombe.
John Elderkin, of the New York
Ledger, claimed that under the pro-
posed law such papers as the Ledger
would be excluded from the privilege
of being entered as second-class mail
matter.
S. S. Mcclure addressed himself es-
pecially to Senator Chambers proposed
amendments, referring to the distribu-
tion through news agencies. 1t would
have the effect, he said, of requiring
the publishers of magazines to organize
their own system of distribution, and
thus both increase the cost as we'll as
decrease the circulation of their publ
cations. Any addition to the cost
would render it impossible to publish
1O-cent magazines. To advance the
price of the magazines to 10 cents
would be to cut the circulation one-half.
Chandler said he did not propose to
press his amendments.
J. s. Ogilvie denied the assertion
made at meeting last Saturday that
some of his publications were indecent.
He asserted that the government was
under an implied contract with pub
fishers to maintain the present rates.
Yates Hickey, of the American Rail
way Literary Association, favored the
bill.
David Williams, proprietor of the
New York Iron Age, submitted an
argument in favor of the bill. Senator
Chandler stated the hearings will close
next Saturday.

spaniards Are Caught in . Trap Laid
by Their Own Countrymen.
Cincinnati, Jan. ga special to
the Commercial Tribune from Key
West says:
A horrible story comes from Jumento,
province of Santa Clara, telling OF
quick retribution to the Spaniards for
their butchery and barbarous methods
of war. A Spanish force, under Cap
tain Martelli, entered the place, which
had been the camp Of the insurgents,
and before going away secretly poi
soned q we'll and spring noted for
affording excellent water. That even
ing a Spanish band of guerillas entered
the town, and used the water, from
which over twenty five men died. The
guerilla captain charged the Cuban resi-
dents with the deed, and shot them
dead. He then turned the women over
to the tender mercies Of the men, who
shot young boys who attempted to save
their mothers and sisters. He burned
the village. The next day some OF the
Spanish troops told the guerillas the
story Of the trap they had set for tho
Cubans, and learned that their own
companions in arms had been caught
by their barbarous plots.

A BOLD CUBAN DASH
Hernandez Men Captured
the Town Of Pelanos.
sPANIARDs WERE SURPRISED
The Troops Were ATTENDING Church
While the Insurgents Were TAX
ing the Garrison.

Cincinnati, Jan. 26.-The CONNER
cial Tribune special from Key West,
says:
Another defeat for the Spanish IL
reported from Pelanos, in the Southern
part OF Havana province. The place
has 1000 inhabitants, is we'll fortified,
and has Spanish garrison of 600 men,
with one field piece.
LieutenantC Colonel Hernandez, in
command Of 500 insurgent cavalry,
made dash at the town Monday after
noon while the troops were at church
celebrating some local holiday. Before
they could form the insurgents had
possession of the blockhOuse Cannon
was trained on the church, and before
the Spanish were hardly aware of what
was the trouble, solid shot came hurtl-
ing through the walls, while cries Of
Cuba Libre" filled the air. Out they
rushed, only to fall before a deadly
volley from a strong force posted be-
hind some neighboring houses.
Colonel Muncio, the Spanish officer,
bravely rallied his men, but as they
formed for charge, he fell, with q
dozen bullets through him. The Sec
ond in command took his place, but
he, too, fell in few seconds time, the
sharpshooters of Hernandez dealing
death with a rapidity that rendered the
troops panic-stricken.
They made one more attempt to
charge the blockhouse, but Hernandez
cavalry reserve dashed at them, sweep
ing through their ranks and cutting
bloody pathwith their sharp machetes.
The Spanish then retired, it being
rout, though a portion stubbornly pro-
tected their rear, making stands until
forced to retire by Hernandez fierce
charges. After pursuing them nearly
to Cajalo on the coast, the insurgents
withdrew. They burned the forts at
Palanos. The insurgents secured l., 400
stands of arms, one cannon, 81, 900 in
gold and $4,000 paper money, besides
ammunition and many valuable papers
belonging to the Spanish commissary
department.
Havana officials knew of the battle
Tuesday night, but kept it suppressed.
and the palace officials say that the
place has been evacuated"

Fatal Fight in Kentucky.

Albany, KY, Jan. 29.-David Hoff-
man and w. J. Leonard, of Campbells-
vile, who have just returned from the
Cumberland mountains, state that
Tuesday, in Morgan county, Tenn,
mob of men went to the farmhouse Of
Mr.. Gage to chastise his son for i'm
moral conduct. Young Gage had a
friend in the mob, John Porter, who,
after they arrived in the yard, declared
they should not touch Gage. A fight
followed, in which John Porter was
stabbed and killed. When Porter fell
young Gage ran out of the house with
a revolver in each hand, firing at the
members of the mob, who ran. One
of them, whose name is not learned,
fell mortally wounded. The bodies OF
the two dead men were left lying on
the porch all night.
