PANIC At MONTEVIDEO.
RumOrs of Dissolution of the
Cabinet--Member Re-
ported Killed.

Montevideo, Nov. 2O.-The city is in
a panic over the incident at today s
session of the chamber of deputies, and
the report that DR.. Miguel Herrera Y
Obes, minister of the interior and a JUS
tice in the Borda cabinet, has been
shot with a revolver. In the chamber
DR.. Herrera V Obes made a violent
attack upon Senor Cuestas, who as
sumed the presidency of the republic
ad interim on the assassination of
Senior J. Idarte BOrda, who was shot
by ArrendOndo during the national
fete on August % last. On September
20, Senior Cuestas issued a declaration
of policy, promising to conduct the ad-
ministration with strict economy, to
purge the public departments and re-
ligiOusly to pay the interest on the pub
lie debt. At that time he expressed
the hope that the department of Gus
toms would yield five million francs
monthly.
Today DR.. Herrera Y Obes called up
on him for a more explicit statement
as to his program in the event of his
election as president.
Senior EduradO McEachen, minister
of the government, refused to reply,
whereupon DR.. Obes presented a mo-
tion demanding the resignation of the
president OF the republic ad interim
It is said that if this motion is adopt
ed by the deputies, SenOr Cuestas will
dissolve the chamber.

MISS CISNEROS CARED FOR.
Mrs. John A. Logan Appointed Guard
ian for the Cuban Girl.

Washington, Nov. 2O.-An order was
issued by the orphans court today,
making Mrs. John A. Logan guardian
for Miss EvangeHna CisnerOs. The
proceedings in court were very brief,
but the senorita's appearance created
much interest.
The application for guardianship set
out that Miss Cisneros has declared her
intention to become a citizen of the
United States so far as the law allows
and she intends to enter an institution
of learning in this city and hereafter
remain resident of Washington. The
petition also cites the incarceration of
her father, Jose Augustin Cossie y Ger
rano, and that there is no time fixed
for his release and that there is reason
to believe that it will be a long time be-
fore he is liberated, if at all.
The case was before Judge Hagner
of the orphans court, and Mrs. Macias,
whose guest the young lady now is,
acted as her interpreter.

TRUCKEE CREW SAVED.
But the Wrecked Steamer Will be a
Total Loss.

MarshfieId, Ore, Nov. 2O.-The Ump-
qua light house wagon arrived at En-
pfre City about o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon, bringing Capt.W. F. Daniels
and the crew of the wrecked steamer
Truckee, who were rescued by the life
saving crew.
Capt. Daniels said that when about
u hours from Tillamook a leak was
discovered and when off the Umpqua
river he became convinced that to save
the lives of his passengers and crew he
would have to attempt to take his yes
sci in over the Umpqua bar. The wind
was blowing southwest gale and the
sea running mountain high. He could
not keep a stitch of canvas up, and
consequently his vessel was thrown
upon the north spit.
The Truckee has forced her way over
the spit and now lies inside. She will
be a total loss, but Capt. Daniels thinks
that her machinery may be saved. There
were eight passengers aboard, one
gentleman two ladies and five children
under years of age.

to stand alone and unless misfortune
