MkN-0F-WAR SUNK IN CUBA.
Commander of the Spanish Ship and
Half of His Hen Killed.

Key West, Fla, 25.-Havana advices
received at Key West are to the effect that
the Spanish gunboat Cometa has been
captured and burned by the insurgents.
The Cometa, which was one of the most
powerful of the smaller Spanish warships
in Cuban waters, has been cruising near
Cardeas to prevent the landing offlibuster-
ing expeditions. For some time she has
been accustomed to anchor at night off
Sierra Nora.
The place where the guuboat anchored
was favorable for an attack from the shore,
and the insurgents determined to capture
her, Last Tuesday night they opened fire
on the vessel witha II pound Hotchkiss
gun. The vessel was struck several times,
and badly damaged While the crew were
in confusion, boats loaded with insurgents
left The shore and the Cometa was boarded
A desperate hand to hand fight took
place on the deck of the gunboat, the
Cubans using the machete with deadly
effect and the Spaniards fell right and
left. Finally after The Spanish commander
and half his men had been killed, the sur
vivors surrendered. The Cubans then
burned the vessel amid shouts of Cuba
Libre.

WEST POINT A GRAVEYARD.
Buried Skeletons Unearthened, Supposed
to be Those of Spies.

West Point, n. Y, Jan. "a (SpeciaD.-
Several days ago a gang of men was set tc
work digging out cellar under the officers
club rooms. The excavation extended
under the Schofeld Hall. While at work
after dinner yesterday one of the men
startled his comrades by an exclamation
of horror, and promptly tumbled over in
faint.
His companions soon revived him, and,
when he told that he had dug into a
skeleton there was a rush to the spot. A
spadeful of bones lay on the surface.
The men carefully picked them up and
placed them in box. Then they began
to dig in earnest. The place proved to be
verltable graveyard. At O'Clock they
had unearthed a wagon-load Of bones and
skulls, which must have belonged only to
men of giant stature.
There was great excitement, until one of
the old retired soldiers, who was born on
the post, told a story handed down by his
grandfather that all the English spies
hanged in Galows Hollow were buried
where Schofeld Hall now stvnds. Tie
authorieties will probably investigate the
matter.

NOT SURPRISED.
The Reported New Deal of the
Norfolk and Western.

NORFOLK, Va, Jan. 25.-The anounce-
ment that the Hooking Valley railway
and the Wisconsin Central lines had
formed a combination with the Norfolk
and Western system looking toward the
establishment of a direct line from the
great lakes to Norfolk was not unexpected
in railway circles in this city. 1t has
long been known that both these big wes-
tern systems wanted to reach this port,
and that they were only deferred from so
doing by the condition of the Norfolk and
Western, whose receivers were not pre-
pared to enter into negotiations to this
end
AS soon as the road was sold, however,
and Mr. Henry Fink, its president, show
ed that his policy would be progressive
one, the plan at once assumed definite
shape, and its successful consummation is
confidently expected here. In that event,
even the present large terminal facilities Of
the Norfolk and Western at this port will
have to be enlarged by the addition of at
least two elevators, additional yard capaci-
ty, and new warehouses. Lambert Point
is already one of the greatest railway
terminals in the South and this addition
will probably make it the largest.
1t is also stated on good authority that
the contemplated combine has made the
Norfolk and Western active to try to Sc
cure ingress into Atlanta. Although the
statement given out by President Nor
sorrete, Of the Hooking Valley is not
taken seriously il Wall street, it is conf
dently believed here that the deal will be
consumated.

THE PLAGUE SPREADING.
Official Reports of Deaths Erroneous
Slight Dminution in Number
of Deaths.

Bombay, Jan. 24,-Although the Off
cial returns the mortality for yesterday
due to plague show slight elimination,
the official figures are known to be entirely
erroneous.
The actual number of deaths is about
double theloose estimate of the authorities:
1t is question whether the authorities are
wise in thus under estimating the extent of
the epidemic.
Cleansing operations are soon to be be-
gun which Will, it is hoped, tend to stay
the progress of the plague in this city.
The dreaded malady is spreading slowly
but surely, over the entire face Of the
country, and ever day brings reports Of
outbreak in other places.
