her army. That Spain cannot con-
ouer Cuba is foregone conclusion,
and it is only the pride OF the ola
Castilian that causes him to con-
tinue a fight which can but result
in disaster and ruin to his country
General Maxine Gomez wrote to
General Campos just as the latter
was removed to make way for Wey-
ley, asking him to intervene with
the home Government and grant
the Cubans some reforms which
would put an end to the shedding
of blood and save Cuba from de-
struction. 1t came too late for
Campos to act. The matter was
turned over to Weyler, who tore up
the communication and casting it
to the winds, said: "No concessions
will be made. We will crush this
rebellion if we have to slaughter
every Cuban on the island"
The Cubans are being slaughter
ed, but the rebellion will never be
crushed.
Maceo. the Cuban patriot, prob
ably still lives The wife of the
Insurgent Colonel Mirabel arrived
at Key West yesterday on the
steamer Olivette from Havana. She
says she came direct from the
camp of the Insurgents, where she
had been attending Antonio Maceo.
She says the intrepid leader was
betrayed and shot in the face by
DIR. Zertucha, the bullet seriously
wounding him.
Mrs. Mirabel says four doctors
are in constant attendance on Ma
Geo, and are now satisfied that he
will recover, but it will be some
time before he will be able again to
assume command of the forces.
Every lover of liberty, every man
who hopes to see Cuba free, will be
rejoiced to know that the brave
Maceo is still in the land of the
living.

SENATOR TELLER ON THE
SITUATION.


Senator Teller hit the weak spot
in the wool trade when he called
attention to the fact that China has
been exporting wool to this country
in large quantities for the last five
or six years, and that the quantity
is increasing every year. Last year
it was 25,Q00,000 pounds, and this
year it is much greater. When
China gets five cents pound in
gold for her wool it becomes ten
cents pound in Chinese money,
and Chinese money will buy in
China as much of the products Of
that country as the same number OF
dollars of gold money wil 9ny in
this country Of our products. Chi
nese money will pay as much of
debts and taxes as the same amount
of money will in this country. In
addition to all this, silver mouey Isl
a protective tai if in favor Of Ghi J,
because when the Chinese buy
abroad they are compelled to pay
twice as much OF their money as
they would be compelled 10 pay i'll
they used the same kind of money
which the gold standard countries
use.
If no legislation can be devised
to remove the advantage which the
silver standard countries have over
this country III the sale Of farm
products in Europe, prosperity will
not be enjoyed by this country
The country cannot prosper while
the agricultural interests are being
destroyed by competition with Rus
STA, India, Mexico. South America,
China and Japan. Tariff legisla-
ton cannot reach this paramount
evil. This country is dependent
upon the export of farm products
to buy what we import and pay our
foreign obligations. 1t is impossi-
bic to export and sell enough of
the products of our farms to con-
tinue importations under any tariff
ever passed by Congress and pay
our foreign obligations while the
unequal competition exists with the
producers of farm products in the
silver standard countries. The sill
ver-standard countries can supply
Europe with all the farm products
which Europe can buy, and will do
SO in the near future unless some
legislation is devised which will re.
lieve our farmers from the disad-
vantages which the difference in the
value of our money and that of
silver-standard countries compel
them to endure.

SPAIN CANNOT WIN.

The dispatches from the different
Enropeon capitals are to the effect
that there will be no protest from
any of the Powers to American in
reference in Cuban affairs. All the
correspondents admit that the bar
barous cruelties of the Spaniards,
especially since Captain General
Weyler succeeded General Martinez
De Campos in command, have ere
ated sympathy for the Cubans in
every civilized community
There is much animation in po-
iitical and military circles in the
Spanish capital where the tide is
setting against Captain General
Weyler, who is expected to be
speedily recalled unless he gains
some striking successes.
The Spanish Minister at Wash
ington, it is stated On good author
ity, has informed Secretary of State
Olney that just as soon as Weyler
succeeds in driving the Insurgents
out of Pinar Del Rio, the Spanish
Government will accept the good
services of the United States and
grant to Cuba anything demanded
short of actual independence.
The truth of the matter is that
the Conservative Party of Spain is
heartily sick of Cuba. 1t has cost
the home Government millions OF
money, made it bankrupt Nation,
and caused the loss of the flower of

GENTLEMEN:-We, your Committee appointed
at the last meeting of the Grand Jury to exam
inc and report upon the condition of the books
and accounts of the several County officials
and from time to time examine the bonds of
the several county officers beg leave to submit
the following:
Owing to the limited time which was allotted
us to examine the accounts, and, moreover, on
account OF the date of the year being such that
taxes have not been paid in full and the As
sessment Roll not being in condition to hg'
ure on, we were unable to arrive at any exact
amounts representing the funds of the county
al this date
Upon examination of all accounts in the
Sheriff and Assessors office, and the checking
of the stubs of the receipt books for licenses,
poll taxes, personal property and mining taxes
and fees, we found the same to correspond in
every instance with the sums turned into the
treasury.
In the Office of the County Auditor and Re
corder we found all the accounts correct and
the balances to agree with those OF the County
Treasurer.
Upon tracing all the sources of revenue to
the Treaserers office we found them properly
presented in the cash book, journal and ledger
and the books all kept in neat and business
like manner. The Clerks fee book was exam
ined and the amounts found to correspond
with the returns made by that officer.
| We examined the bonds of the several diff

sion that said bonds were good and sufficient,
and as reliable as can be procured in the

that it was a rear-end collision. AS
the trains collided from opposite di-
rections, one being an east bound and
the other a west bound, further than
that it was a head-ender is unneces-

the Light stated that it was a head
end collision" and it was also intend
ed as such in the write up. Mr.. Nc
Queeney kindly gave the Light report
er the particulars of the wreck but
the account was not written as dictat-
ed; neither did he say that it was a
rear-end' collision.
The injured men and also the body
of the dead fireman August S. Welch,
were brought in last night. The injur-
ed men were taken to the Santa Rosa
hospital, where they are receiving. all
possible attention to ease their suffer
ings. Welch's body was taken to
Sheern 81 Burnett's where it was pre-
pared for burial and was removed to
