CALNE CAN'T COME.

St. Louis, Feb. 1S.-The DamrOsch
Opera company, was to open here in
grand opera next week. Caive had
been billed to appear in Carmen" but
today the managers received the fol-
lowing telegram:
Il regret that my doctor fOrbids me
absolutely to make such a tiresome
journey, for am dreadfully tired. You
can't turn the impossible. My arts
tic conscious is my defender.

DEPEW CERTAIN.
He Will Be The Next Ambassador To
The Court OF st. James.

He Will Be The Next Ambassador To
The Court OF st. James.
New York, Feb.1S.-The Herald says:
1t was reported that General Eben S.
Draper, of Massachusetts, was a can
diGate for ambassador to Great Brit
ain. 1t has been learned, however,
that General Draper will be satisfied
with Germany or Italy and that the
Massachusetts members of Congress
are supporting him for a place.
A story is in circulation to the effect
that the chances of Chauncey NJ. De-
pew have been injured by the report in
Canton that in the course of a recent
after dinner speech he pOked fun at
the president-elect. This is declared
by Mr.. Depew's supporters to be abso-
lutely without foundation. They say
he is certain of the appointment, and
that even the friends of John Hay adj
nit it.
The feeling is again gathering
strength that New York will have to
take the French mission, and that Gen.
Stewart L. Woodford will not be in
the cabinet. The machine is still be-
hind him, but machine men say they
can get along without a cabinet place.

THE RATE WAR.

northwestern Millers say there is quite
a stir in the cutting of railroad rates.
Saturday when notice of the restoIa-
ton was given, ship contracts on the
old basis particularly for export, had
already been made and these deals
will now have to be recognized There
fore, there promises to be a good deal
of flour going at the old rates for some
time to come.

MUST TREAT ALL ALIKE.
Red Cross Can Make no Distinction
Among the Suffering.

Red Cross Can Make no Distinction
Among the Suffering.
Washington, Feb. 1S.-The Wash
ingtOn Times, referring to a cOntem-
plated expedition of the Red Cross so
ciety TO Cuba, mentions the circum-
stance of a sum of money received by
the officials of that society being re-
turned to the sender on account of the
fact that its tender was coupled with
the injunction that no portion Of it
should be used for the relief Of Span
iards.
Such a contribution is no wise con-
sistent within the meanings and rules
of the Red Cross society, which, in
its ministrations to the suffering, makes
no distinction whatever as to any
creed or nationality and donations ten
dered to the society coupled with re-
requests that they be only used in one
direction cannot meet the philanthro-
phic purposes of the organization.
1t will require about $4,000 to start
the society's expedition TO Cuba, and
it seems but a small part of that
amount has yet been subscribed. As
early as possible, however, despite all
difficulties of travel and stress Of 9th
or circumstances, the society will be-
gin its new mission of succOring the
distressed on whatever side in the is
land of Cuba. 1t is probable that from
twenty-five to thirty of the staff of the
society can, owing to the nearness of
the locality, be sent to Cuba and sub
scripticnS that are received can be sent
10 them while they are on the field Of
duty.

of Chicago, the amateur champion ice
skater, will meet fifteen skaters at the
Clermont Avenue rink in Brooklyn to-
night in what promises ia be an eXcit-
ing contest. Five prizes have been
offered. As the handicapping COM
mittee has allotted the starts on the

to be in doubt up to the finish of the
race.

THE BLOCKADE FLEET.

Charleston, S. c., Feb. 1S.-The
blockading squadron has resumed
practice with big guns. No late arriv-
ais are reported and the feet Occu-
pies the same positions occupied dur
ing the target practice. No block
ade work was done last night, but it
is expected that the Vesuvius yill try
to run the gauntlet in a day or two.
The Vesuvius came into harbor and is

IN THE PHILIPPINES.
The Rebels Believe They Can Live on
Nothing When the Spaniards
Are Whipped.

Are Whipped.
New York, Feb, 1S.-A dispatch 10
the Herald from Manila, Philippine
islands, says:
Gen. Lachambre, who has occupied
SantO Domingo, is advancing on ST.
lang. Cornell. and will attack the re-
bel forces within three day. The num-
Der of troops employed is not publish
ed The batteries employed are two
Krupp batteries of s centimeters, one
battery of centimeters and two NOR
tars of 10 centimeters.
With Gen. Lachambre is Gen. Mari
ma, who takes the battery of artillery
of 8 centimeters.
From all reports it would seem that
if the Spaniards are lucky enough to
infiict a decisive defeat on the rebels
the Instruction will cease.
An immense amount of suffering
has been inflicted on the insurgents
already.
The rebels believe that if they can
get rid of the Spaniard they can run
the country and pay no more taxes.
Everyone will have plenty to eat,
nothing to do and pay no 'cedula" or
other tax to anybody. Their ideas are
largely sOcialistic. This is the simple
argument which the agents use every
where to beat up recruits and to get
the pesantS to join their ranks. AS
practical and early illustration of
these delightful tenets the washermen,
who have mostly all turned rebels,
walked off with half of the wardrObes
of male and female, for here everyone
uses white tropical clothing the year
around and consequently for a time
the rebels were the best dressed gen
tlemen in the PHILIPPINES, while their
luckless customers were getting new
clothes together.
