notice will be given that the United
States must interfere, though General
Woodford had not said SO yet. Spain
cannot expect the aid of European pow
ers, as the United States ambassadors
have ascertained that all the European
countries, except Austria, recognize
that the interests Of the United States
justify the latter's interference in
Cuba. Austria in this matter is infiu-
enced by the relationship between the
two dynasties, the queen regent of
Spain being an Austrian archduchess,
but it is not likely that Austria will
take any part in the question beyond
possibly making a diplomatic protest
against the Intervention Of the United
Staaes.

STATE OFFICIALS SILENT,
Madrid Dispatch Cannot BE Confirmed at
Washington.

Madrid Dispatch Cannot BE Confirmed at
Washington.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-The state de-.
partment officials refuse to discuss the
most important statement made in the
Associated Press cable dispatch from
Madrid, namely, that the countries Of
Europe, with the exception Of Austria,
justify the interposition of the United
States in favor of termination Of the
Cuban war. Still it is recalled that
while Mr.. Woodford was talrying in an
apparently purposeless manner in Lon
don and Paris instead Of proceeding to
his post in Spain it leaked out that the
United States ministers at various
European courts had been instructed to
sound the governments to which they
were accredited with view to learning
how Intervention in favor Of Cuba
would be regarded.
Although it was generally supposed
at the time that this effort would not
succeed, there is now good reason to ac-
cept the statement in the Madrid cable
as fully warranted by the facts. With
such lever in the hands of Mr.. Wood
ford, and of its existence the Spanish
government must be aware by this
time, it is regarded as extremely i'm.
probable that it would reject any tender
of our coed offices, made in spirit Of
friendship and disinterestedness. 1t is
not expected that any answer from
Spain, if formal answer is made now
or later, will come through the Spanish
authorities here, but that it will be
communicated to Minister Woodford
direct.

CITY OF MEXICO, Sept. 22.-The MUIR
der of Arroyo, presumably by members
Of the police continues to be the one
topic of discussion in this city and
newspapers sell extra editions in order
to supply the demands Of the public.
Fresh arrests have been made, mainly
among the officers attached to the Sec
ond police station, supposed to be inn
plicated in the bloody drama. Prob
ably the man most intimately con-
nected was Inspector Villa Vincencio
of the Second station, who was said to
have suggested the killing of Arroyo
and disguised the secret police and gen.
darmes who penetrated the police head
quarters where their helpless victim
lay.

GREEKS VERY INDIGNANT

Believed the Chamber Will Refuse to Ac-
cept the Treaty of Peace.
LONDON, Sept 22.-The correspondent
Of The Daily News at Athens says:
"The public feeling over the peace
terms has changed from stupefaction to
active indignation. Here and in the
provinces mass meetings are being ar
ranged to protest, and there is reason to
believe that the chamber will refuse to
accept the treaty. M. Delyannis even
declares the question SO grave that only
the national assembly is competent to
swear away the sovereign rights Of
the state. The king also is said
to be very bitter over the terms.
The people object not to foreign
control, but to control by bankers and
bondholders committees, whose terms
must be accepted ere Thessaly will be
evacuated"

MORE EARTHQUAKES.


Mexican Town Has shocks Tor Three
Months.
COLIMA, Mexico, Feb. 1S.-The peo-
pie OF this vicinity were treated to a
shaking up last Saturday which for a
time set almost the entire population
TO praying. An earthquake, which
lasted ten seconds, was followed at
intervals OF two or three minutes by
others of shorter duration for more
than an hour. The cathedral tower
percePtibly rocked, and it seemed for
a time as if a disaster was certain.
The streets were filled with people on
their knees, while the priests did their
utmost to console and pacify them.
The shocks were very distinct and
seemed 70 run from north to south.
The local papers gave the item four
lines and said that mo lamentable
disaster occurred" During the past
three months there have been but six
days when shocks have not been ia
creasing in intensity.

Fire. Smoke and Ashes spout from

TEPIC, Mexico, February 1S.-The
seismic disturbances which have been
felt for the fast three months along
the coast have been much more pro-
nounced during the past week and on
Saturday the old volcano Of Ceboruco
began an active eruption. This was
one of the smaller volcanoes and has
never in the memory OF man, done
much damage. The fires have never
died out, and there have always been
smoke and noxious gases arising from
the crater, and numerous blow holes.
The first indication of renewed ac-
tivity came Saturday at 2 o'clock in
the afternoon, when a sharp earth
quake shock startled the people of
Topic. Almost Immediately afterward
clouds of smoke and ashes spouted
from the crater and continued during
the rest of the day. Saturday night
the display was very beautiful from
the reflection of internal fires, but by
Sunday night the disturbance had
again died down and only thin cloud
of bluishg-ray smoke assembled from
the crater.

Complete Reconciliation Effected by
Camp and Brooks.

Complete Reconciliation Effected by
Camp and Brooks
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Feb. IA
Harvard and Yale have at last signed
a definite treaty and a complete athle-
tic reconciliation has been effected.
Walter Camp and William A Brooks,
Jr drew up the agreement last even
ing, but it was not signed until this
noon. 1t provides for basel ball, foot
ball and track athletics to be agreed
to by the undergraduate managers, and
for an arbitration committee in case
OF a disagreement. AS TO the boat
race this year Cornell appears to hold
the key to the situation.
The signing of the agreement puts
an end to long suspense and Will be
received with great relief. The plan
is tacitIy that which Harvard present
ed to Yale months ago, but which,
without being actually refused, was
strongly objected to. Every one in
Cambridge is delighted.
Under the terms of the agreement
there are to be annual contests in
rowing, baseball, football and track
athletics between the representatives
organizations of Harvard and Yale un-
til the year 1902 committee is to
be appointed on or before April !,
1897, TO consist of one graduate of
each university to whom shall be re-
ferred all disagreements in any way
relating to theltics and all questions
of eligibility. The decision of the
committee is to be final.
In case of a disagreement between
members of the committee it shall have
power 10 call upon a third person to
settle the particular question in dis
pute.
Yale is willing to make third party
in the Harvard-Cornell race at Pough-
keepsie in 1897 if Harvard so arranges.
Ii is understood that the first baseball
game will be played in Cambridge on
June 25th, which is the day before
class day. with the second at New
Haven on June 30th. If third game
is necessary il will BE- played a week
later. The track athletic games will
occur at New Haven on May 18th.

OURS the go by" Why we sell so
many Bicycles is no mystery for the
names Rambler" Columbia and
"Stearns" are known 10 every one who
knows what the word Bicycle means,
and about everybody in the Islands
knows that we are the agents for these
three leading makes.
We will not say much about the
'Stearns" this time, as the lot Of 81
wheels which left New York on Febru-
airy 10th, did not catch the australia
and you do not want TO hear about
wheel you cannot see, so we will tell
you about them when they get here.
But if you want a pretty mount. some
thing up to date, come in and see orr
'97 "Colum bias and "Ramblers:" but
come quick, as we have sold over half
of the lot just received, and we are sure
to be out of both makes before we can
get a good look at them ourselves.
We will have just forty-four (44 BIZ
cycles on the Australia" when she gets
here on March 30th, and from that on
we don't think anybody will go by to
buy wheel because we have not got
the stock to show them.
Our "Columbias" this year, as well
as our "Ramblers,' are fitted with the
well-known G. e J. tires. This tire has
proved to be the best one ever used in
these Islands, and if you get the gen
uine G. & J. tire you get what you need
for this climate and our roads. The
genuine G. e J. tire is sold by the
Rambler" Agency here, and is fitted
to wheels we order. You can get tires
that are said to be G. & J. and look
just the same, but you won't want more
than one pair; looks don't wear, you
know.
Points of interest to you will be the
way the spokes are fastened on the
"Colum bias the new special seat and
the handles and grips on the Ladies'
"Ramblers;" in fact, you will find lots
TO interest you, and you are welcome to
examine any wheel to your hearts con-

OLYMPIA. Wash, Feb. 16.-Wash-
ington is OF the verge of wiping out
all of her saloons and wholesale liquor
houses by adopting a prohibitory law
similar to that governing the sale OF
liquors in South Carolina. he dis
pensary law knoYn as the Cline bill
passed the House today by a vote OF
AZ ayes TO 80 noes, much to the sur
prise of the House itself. The meas
ure was supported by nearly all the
middle-of-the-road Populists and by a
few silver Republicans. The proposed
law puts full control of the liquor
traffic in the hands of the Governor,
but eliminates from the South Caro-
lima law the profit system. The Gov
ernop appoints a State Commission
which in turn appoints county commits
sions and they appoint local dispen-
sers. all liquor being handled through
the State commission with sufficient
profit attached to pay all expenses OF
the different boards and dispensaries.
No LIQUOR is TO be sold at retail to be
drunk upon the premises and minors
or drunkards are prohibited from re-
ceiving it. 1t is to be sold only in
quantities not less than half pint
nor more than FIVE gallons. The pro-
moters are confident the measure will
pass the Senate.
The House today passed a bill for
a constitutional amendment to sub
nit the initiative and referendum sys-
tenn for the control of elections. The
Senate today passed a bill providing
for bounty on sugar.
