An Attempt to Capture the Cuban Gov.
Falls of Its Object-The Coll
umn Constantly Harrassed by Insurgent
Bonds and and Forced to Retrace Its
Steps Empty-Handed.
HAVANA, March 15.-Gen. Jiminez
Castellanos learning that the members
of the revolutionary government were
at San Geranimo, started, on the 4th,
from Puerto Principe with a strong
column, with the intention of making
an attempt to capture them. The off,
cial report of the government has lust
been issued. 1t states that during the
march of the troops, which occupied
five days, the column was constantly
attacked by insurgent bands.
Several lively fights occurred, in all
OF which the rebels were beaten and
dispersed with many losses. Not
w~ithstanding these continual defeats
and dlspersionS the rebels hung on to
the tanks of the column and prevented
it from reaching its intended destina-
ton.
The sufferings of the troops were
augmented by 4 scarcity of water.
While on the road Gen. Castellanos
ordered the construction of a fort in
which to leave his wounded. After it
was completed 40 soldiers were left
TO protect it and the column moved on.
Later a force of rebels attacked the
fort but were 'repulsed with heavy
losses"
The official report says in the differ
ent encounters the rebels left Al dead
on the field. The troops lost two lieu
tenants and six privates killed and
three lieutenants and % privates
wounded.

paper correspondent, who was re-

BILE dispatch to the Sun from Havana
says:
1t is said in Havana by well-informed
persons that Gen. Weyler has received
a dispatch from the Madrid govern
ment requesting him to send his resig-
nation.
1t is certain that hard words have
been exchanged recently between Gen.
Weyler and the central government.
Havana is greatly alarmed over the
attitude of the government and the
troops with regard to the paper money.
1t is said that the issue made by the
Spanish bank of the island of Cuba will
be substituted by another from the
Bank of Spain itself at Madrid.
Two hundred Cubans embarked Sat-
urday for Ceuta, to which place they
have been exiled.

De LONE Consented to 1t with Very Bad
Grace.
NEW YORK, March LIT is learned
that Senior de LONE, the Spanish min
lister, had a stormy interview with Sec
rotary Sherman before he agreed to
the release of Sylvester Scovel, the
newspaper man imprisoned in Cuba.
Mr.. Sherman sent for Senior de LONE
to present to him the desire of Presi-
dent Mckinley that Mr.. Scovel, having
been in confinement for more than 30
days without being brought to trial, be
set free. Mr.. de LONE told Nh. Sher-
man bluntly that he would not advo-
cate the release.
Mr.. Sherman replied that it was
necessary that he should comply with
the official demand of the United States,
to which the Spanish minister said Bit
terly:
81 suppose, since the United States
has adopted coercive measures, there is
nothing for Spain to do in her present
situation but to be coerced."

The Final DedicatOry Services Will be Held

CHICAGO, March 1.-THE superb sar-
cophagus in which will rest the body
of Gen. Ulysses S. Grant has been
shipped to New York. After its arrival
it will be transferred to the monument,
and the coffin containing Gen. Grants
body will be placed within and the

The Grant monument committee is
sued a bid for specimens of granite
suitable for a tomb for Gen. Grant six
years ago. Contributions of granite
from four continents were received, but
the coveted contract was intrusted last
May to j. H. Anderson.
The die of the sarcophagus was cut
from a single block of granite, and is
1914 feet long, Sc feet wide and
As feet high, and weighs ten tons.
1t is a triumph of monumental
art, plain but indescribably massive, the
fine-grained granite being like a mirror.
The name ulysses S. Grant is cat
near the top of the cap, and is almost
directly over the spot where the head
of the great soldier will rest. The
granite is dark red, taking a rich luster
when polished.

SYMPATHY FOR GREECE
Freely Expressed by n Mammoth NJ 'ting
in Trafalgar Square. London.

in Trafalgar Square, London
LONDON, March 15.-Another radical
manifestation to express sympathy
with Greece in her efforts in behalf
of Cretan Christians was shield yesterday
afternoon IN Trafalgar square. At last
Sundays meeting in Hyde park there
were 20, 900 persons present, and yester-
day it was estimated that the assem-
blage was fully as large if not larger.
greek flags were n~umerously displayed,
and many of the persons comprising
the huge crowd wore rosettes made of
the national colors of Greece.
Six platforms had been erected for
the use of the speakers, who included
Messrs. Michael Davitt, Francis Chan
ming, j. Havelock Wilson and j. Ii.
Dalziel, all members of the house of
commons and several nonconformist
ministers.
The speakers maintained the right of
the Cretans to settle their political diff
ferences themselves without any inter
vention on the part of the powers, and
denounced Prime Minister Salisbury
for the part he had taken in connection
with Russia, Germany, Austria, France
and Italy, to compel Greece to abandon
her attempts to liberate Crete and to
save the Christian population of the
island from Turkish misrule.
The resolutions, that were adopted
amid much enthusiasm, Indignantly
protest against the use of British forces
to suppress the laudable efforts of
Greece in behalf of civilization and
Christianity. They also declared that
the reply made by the Hellenic govern
ment to the note of the powers offered
a satisfactory basis for a settlement of
the whole question, and urged the gov
eminent not to assent to the policy Of
coercion that is advocated by certain OF
the continental powers.

DOWN A STEEP BLUFF.

Fearful Plunge OF a Southern Railway
Train In Georgia-The Engineer Stuck to
His Post-Seyen Persons Were Injured,
Two of Them FatalIy-The Wreck Caught
Fire and the Passengers Had a Very Mar
row Escape.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, March IA
special to the News from Rome, Ga,
says: A frightful passenger train
wreck occurred here at an early hour
on the approach 10 the high bridge OF
the Southern railway over the Etowah
river. The engine plunged down a
bluff 60 feet high into the river, with
the engineer sticking to his post. The
wreck caught fire, and seven cars were
burned.
TIE INJURED.
Engineer James T. Pittman, left leg
broken and badly cut and bruised; IA
tally hurt.
Fireman Alfred Kennedy. internally
injured and bruised; fatal.
Express Messenger Polk Culberson,
leg badly lacerated.
BaggagemaSter Winston, painfully
bruised.
John Simpson. colored. passenger;
badly bruised.
All these men live in Atlanta.
Two other passengers whose names
could not be learned were slightly in
jured.
The wrecked train vas the passenger
train from Chattanooga, due here at
S:25 a. M. 1t was composed of one Pull
man sleeper, day coach, smoker, bag
gage car and five cars of perishable fast
freight. About so feet from the bridge
is a trestle 40 feet high crossing the
Western e Atlantic railroad tracks.
Heavy rains caused the trestle to give
way and the freight cars, baggage car
and smoker fell into the cut, while the
engine jumped the track and plunged
into the river.
The wreck caught fire from the stove
in the baggage cal. The fire depart
ment was summoned, and many citi-
zens fastened to the scene. They had
much difficulty in cutting out and
rescuing passengers in the smoking
car. The Pullman and day coach did
not leave the track, and were pushed
back out of the fire.
The escape from instant death of
Engineer Pittman, who bravely stuck
to his post, was almost miraculous.
The abutment of the bridge tore the
tender from the engine, which plunged
down the bluff into the river. The en-
gineer, with his leg broken. chung to
his engine, and yelled for help. Noone
heard him, and finally he fell into the
river, and then swan ashore.

Gratifying Falling on In the Number Of
Immigrants from Europe.
WASHINGTON, March 13.-There has
been a decrease in immigration during
the past W months compared with
the same period last year of 1926
Commissioner Stump explains the de-
crease as follows: THE many depor.
tations and strict examinations of the
immigrant to the United States, has
caused a large increase of immigration
from Europe to Brazil, Argentine Re.
public and other South American coun
tries, where inducements are held out
for their migration. Italian immigra-
ton will be seriously checked by the
proclamation of the marquis di Rudini,
minister of the interior for the king
dom, warning undesirable classes from
embarkation and refusing passports.
