WEYLER'S RECALL
AGAIN ANNOUNCED
General Blanco Is Once
More Named as His
Successor.
Utter Failure of the Summer
Campaign the Cause
Assigned.
Sharp Encounters With Guerrilla
in Which the Cubans Are
Victorious.

HAVANA, CUBA, July 27.-The news
comes again that Weyler is to return to
Spain. His recall has been decided upon
by the Government, but will not be Off
cially published until the Government i.
certain that a general of high standing
will lake the esponsibility of leading its
army in Cuba. The name OF General
Blanco is mentioned again as Wevler' s
successor, and it is persistentIy asserted
that Weyler will leave in few days for
Spain.
l is now we'll known here that Weyler,
while in Sancti Spiritus, endeavored to Sc
cure an interview with Gomez for the pur-
pose of offering him peace on the basis OF
home rule. Weyler, ii is thought, IN
spite of Gomsz's previous refusal to enter
upon any negotiations, would not reject a
direct proposition from him for a peaceful
conference, but Gomez's answer was even
more insulting than his previous ones.
"TeH General Weyler," he said to the
representative of the captain-general, II
do not consider him man of honor. He
Is too deep IN the mud to raise himseltto
my level and confer with me-"
The failure of Weyler is now acknowl-
edged, even by the most uncom promising
Spaniards. Weyler himself says that the
central Government has thwarted him in
his plans in order to satisfy public opinion
in the United States. According to the
captain-geueral, his treatment of the Gu
bans has been far milder than woulc have
been the case if it had not been for the in
reference os Canovas.
The immediate cause of Weyler's pres
ent disgrace was his futile attempt to
carry on summer campaign in the east
and his reiterated reports that he had
inces, though the revolution proved to be
as strong in those districts as ever.
The withdrawal of Spanish troops from
Pinar del Rio, Havana and Matanzas has
not only strengthened the revolution at
those points, but has exposed the Spanish
troops thus driven to &C ivi.v to all the
deadly influences of the rainy season,
whic have killed many hundreds of
them. In less than two weeks after their
departure from the west 40 per cent of the
soldiers were stricken with either yellow
lever, malaria or dysentery.
News from Santiago de Cuba says that
after skirmish with the insurgents the
Spanish guerrilla forces of Niguero had
to retire in haste because of stronger
Cuban forces approaching.
They had no time to save the convoy
they were carrying, so il fell into the
hands OF the Cubans. who captured a

three large cases of medicines and six
mules loaded with other provisions. In

were nineteen kllled-among them some

insurgents had one killed and six
wounded.
The Cubans were commanded by Gen.

AS yet there is no clew to the murderers,

Mr.. Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, has just re-
turned from an extended trip through the
middle Western States, where he spenttwo
or three weeks disseminating the principles
of trades unionism. When seen yesterday
by u reporter for The Times, President
'iompers said ne was in every way satisfied
with the results of his trip The working
lie visited, he said, were beginning TO see
the light and recognize the fact that the
only way they can maintain their liberty
as citizens is through a strict adherence
to the first principles OF trades unionisrn
AT Chicago and Rockford, Ill, Racine and
Jonesville, Wis, and Redley, Ind, there
was a great outpouring of the Iabonng
classes to hear the principles of trades
unionism expounded and the result, he
said, was that hundreds who heretofore
had refused to ally themselves with labor
organizations of any kind avOWed allegi-
ance to the principles OF the American Fed
Grafton and affIlat with the unions
The principal object ofMr Gompers' visit
in legislation in Illinois in relation to
child labor, compulsory education, and
the methods of mine inspection, and also
the employees liability act.
While at Chicago Mr.. Gompers also had
a conference with the local leaders in
reference to the troubles between argan-
lied labor i'll that city and the manage
ment OF one of the largest local bicycle
manufacturing firms. The trouble, Mr..
GoInpers said, is of long standing, and in
wolves the uphoIding Of the principles Of
the American Federation of Labor, but he
is OF the opinion that there is every
prospect Of an early and amica0le settle
ment.
MI John GaIliford, president OF the
local society Of Amalgamated Carpenters,
called on Mr. Gompers yesterday as
representative of the Central Labor Union
to extend TO him an invitation to address

FAIR SKATERS AT THE PALACE.
Many of Them Are Graceful Per
formers on the Steels.

That healthful and fascinating amrSe-
ment, skating, has become extremely popu-
lar with many OF Washingtou's society
ladies, and each morning merry parties
of the fair skaters journey to the Ice
Palace, where they enjoy the pleasure
of gliding over the perfect surface for
hours at a time. A number OF these ladies
are very proficient and graceful per-
formers on the steels, q few being really
excellent fancy skaters.
Washington is too far South for much
outdoor skating and nearly all the local
performers have gained their skill since
the introduction of the rink in this city.
When this is considered, it is really Won
derful how many skillfm lady skaters there
are here. AT the morning sessions some
extremely intricate and difficult move
ments are performed on the ice. The waltz
step, with many of the regular figures of
thedance, is executed with ease and grace.
A graceful girl never looks so well as
when skating; nor does an awkward one
ever appear to less advantage than on ice
II must be said that the average fair
skater at the Palace belongs to the first
named class, for nearly all skate well.
To see them gliding poiselessly over
the ice and in perfect accord with the
rytim OF the dreamy waltz music, is to
fully realize true poetry Of motion"

worst of it is that I do not expect any
great improvement l cannot see that
the solution OF the financial troubles will
have much influence on my little business
here in Washington, or on anybody's else.
The great competition is the thing that
kills US. Why, not so very many years
ago, whenI opened here, there were three
other mems furpishers in Washington,
and there were 80 ,0oO people here. Now
there are 300 mems furniShers, and less
than 800, 900 people. There were at
that time only two or three other tailors
in town, and now how many so-called
tailors are there on every block? Nothing
could solve such a difficulty as this or
course people wear more clothes now,
when times are good, than they did then,
and buy more neckties, but not nearly
enough more to make up for the enormous
number OF people who can furnish them.-
