"CUBA IS NEARLY PAC|F|ED' Consul MCGarr Gives This as
 His Opinion. DIRECT FROM CIENFUEGAS He Says That Weyler Is Not Butcher, and That the New York Papers Can-
 not Be Believed.
Special to The Age-Herald.

Special to The Age Herald.
 Chattanooga, Sept. 4.-Cwen McGarr, the American consul at Cienfugos, Cuba, today direct from the island. As to the condition of affairs on the island, the consul does not agree with the Cuban Junta or the New York papers.
 He confirms fully General weyler's statements recently sent out. Cienfue- gos is in the southwestern portion of the island, in the province of Santa Clara.
 "So far as I have been able to judge" said MT. McGarr, General Weyler's claim that four provinces of the west ern end of Cuba have been pacified is correct. There is no confidence to be put in what the New York papers have to say on the subject of Cuba. They are very much in favor of the insurgent cause, and nine-tenths of what they say is false. The insurgents have not the slightest chance to win, unless the United States decides to take a hand in the matter. It seems to me that they have about played out, as hundreds of the insurgent army have surrendered"
 '4Then you think the army of Cuba fibre has about played out?"
 Except on paper. There may be five or six thousand of them in the eastern portion of the island, in the provinces which have not yet been subjugated, but the rest of the island is pacified as far as it is possible"
 How about the concentration in the cities of tine western part of the slanid of all the country people?"
 ''There are thousands of country peo- pie concentrated in the cities. Many are in Cienfuegos. The Spanish have clean ed up the country districts and sent all the people into the towns. Many are put into old warehouses and other such buildings to keep them from the coun- try. They are fed by the government. A large per cent of these concenItrados as we call them are women and children who were in insurgent camps which had to be abandoned and were captured by the Spanish.
 'I saw General Weyler short time since. He Is not the man butcher he is be no more severe fighting; however, there may be a battle or two. The sit uation in Havana is very serious, as the sanitary conditions are very bad and of tho icd,, 1>it the fever and other diseases. Within a short time affairs in Cuba will resume their normal condition"

arisen whether there should be law and order here or anarchy. He proposed to exhaust every power at his command to establish peace and he said that if it required all the forces of the city and state he was determined that Beau regard school should be used as a tenn porary hospital. The board of health had decided on the hospital and the city had decided on the location and all tlreSts would not deter him in his in- and the surgeon would be sent to the school to receive and care for the yell low fever patierlts. In the meantime, he said, Ei5 had summoned Chief of Po- lice Gaston to the hall and no effort or expense would be spared in bringing to justice the men who had firsd the build- dng last night. The mayor has the sup port of we'll nigh the entire commun.- ty.
 The situation here is generally un- changed. Freight is moving slowly and there is practically no passenger traffic The theatres are still open and amuss- ments are not restrained But that New Orleans is losing hundreds of thousands of dollars by quarantine is not doubted.
 The ordering by the Southern Pacific company of the steamer Fl Norte from New York to Galveston means practical ly at1 eastern freight destined for the Pacific coast over the Southern Pacific will go to Galveston and away from tlh.s city until the embargo is raised.

 To Mrs. Fenn the president said: 'I congratulate you in having such an ex- cellent golfer for a husband, and turning to MT. Fenn, he said: I am very glad to meet you on the field of battle. I hear you have won a very hard-fought battle.'
 The president, after watching the play ing of several gentlemen, entered ths carriage and returned to the Sloan resi- dence.
 Ths dining room of the Sloan mansion. in which the distinguished guests were entertained, was a marvel of beautiful decorations and elaborate furnishings. The new dining table which was made to order for the occasion stood in the center of th= room. It was perfect bower of roses.
 Large baskets of roses were laid at in tervaCs on the fabla and behind the president was an immense American eagle made of roses. The eagle was worked by some mechanism unseen and it held in it's talon large and fancifully shaped electric light bulb, red in colon
 In view of each guest was an Ameri- can flag from small red, white and blue electric globes. As the guests were as- sembling for the dinner the Lenox band of eighteen pieces came upon the lawn and furnished a fine concert for the din- ner and the balance of the evening" Dinner occupied from until g. The menu was very elaborate Letters and telegrams at their inability to attend were received during the day from Vice President Hobart, Secretary Bliss and Secretary Long. Immediately after the dinner the guests and their host and hostess adjourned to the reception room and received the callers who had been invited by MT. Sloan to meet the distinguished party. The reception was over at 10 o'clock and after a short ses- sion of conversation the ladies and gen. tlsmen of the party retired for the night.

 Tuscaloosa, Sept. 24.-A terrible trag- edy occurred here this afternoon abotu killed by A. Stoneking in front of the White Elephant bar on Greensboro strl1et, adjoining tha McLester hotel. The shooting occurred at an hour when the street was crowded with people, The affair created Intense excitement. The cause of the shooting seems to have been over a very trivial matter, the two men having had quarrel this gars. There was nothing thought of the matter until this afternoon when they met again in the White Elephant and Stoneking offered to treat to drinks. Lallande refused, saying he would not drink with one who was not gentle man.
 Stoneking then left the bar and went to Allen & Jemison's hardware store, where he purchased a 3S-calibre Colts pistol. Returning in a short time and entering the front door of the saloon he saw Lallande standing at the cigar case. Stoneking began cursing and abusing Lallande and as Lallande turned to face him, Stoneking drew his pistol and fired once, the ball striking Lallande in the abdomen, who immediately sank to the floor in a dying condition. Stonek,ng then started for the street. but was over powered by two or three men and the smoking pistol wrested from his grasp and taken to jaM The wounded man never regained consciousness and died in one hour.
 MT. La1lande was junior member of the co. .ntracting firm of Dunn & Lal- lande of Birmingham. who are grading the Mobile and Ohio railroad through the city. He has made many friends during his stay and was genial. clever gentleman. MT. Stoneking was also a contractor, doing grade work on the Brookwood branch of the Mobile and Ohio. This affair shocked tha whole city. Public opinion is against Stonelz- ing. The preliminary trial will be held Monday.
 T. H. Lallande, brother of the dead man, lives in this city, and last night said to an Age-Herald reporter:
 "I received @ telegram from my mother tonight informing me of the killing, but 1t gave no particulars be- yond the statement that the deed was done by Stoneking at o'clock.
 "StonelIng is a contractor on the rail- road that is being built near Tusca- loosa."
 There are five of the Lallande broth CTS. T. H. Lallande and J. G. Lallande are of the firm of Dunne 6 Lallande Brothers, the well known contractors, with headquarters in this city. The firm did a great deal of the macadam- izing in the county, considerable railroad work about here, and also dug the tun- nel for the Water Works company in Red Mountain.

 Father Murray was well known in this city, Pratt and Bessemer, having for three years lived here and presided over St. Aloysius church, Bsssemer. Though young, he had already proved his ability as a pulpit orator and his daily walk and conversation was an example worthy of emulation. An ar dent advocate of temperance, he found ed in this city St. Pauls Catholic Total Abstinence society, which exists at pres ent with a large membership.
 Father Murray was born in Cork, Ireland thirty years ago, and completed his theological education at the Ameri- can college, Rome, Italy.
