New YORK. Dee. pa special from
Key West to the World says:
Steamship pa7se:. gers saysthat Cen
eral Rivera, who is in command OF the
army of Maceo, has sent formal warn
ing to General Weyler. General
Rivera notified the Spanish captain
general that If he persisted in his
threats to kill paciico' found in the
country, the Cubans will make repris-
ais on all Splniards whom they may
capture.
General Weyler is affecting to dis
regard the warning. Those near him,
however, say he will not dare to carry
out his ideas as ruthlessly as he iu-
tended. His guerillas still have full
authority to capture or to kill pacificos
in the country and to force their
families into the glrrisoned towns. AS
| the troops in such places have little
extra food and the residents none to
spAre, this order lays u great hardship
upon the poor country folk. Hundreds
will soon be starving.
General Rivera is moving out of his
entertainments. ALI indications point
80 an important engagement soon.
General Weyler has visited various
points on the trocha and San Christie
bal. He is always accompanied by
large force.
There is skirmishing daily along the
trocha and on the outskirts of
Artemisa.
A battle has been fought in Santa
Clara province between guerilla bands.
The Cubans forced the Spanish to re-
tire into Remedies with heavy loss.
Regla, across the bay from Havana,
was attacked again last night almost
under the guns OF the fortress. Several
houses were burned and rrnning fight
maintained for two hours.
The fighting around the city greatly
alarms the residents. The troops
nightwatch in the suburbs have been
doubled.

HAIL FORMED BY ToRNADoEs.
The Result OF Whirlwinds in the Atmoe
phere Far Above the Earth.

The Result OF Whirlwinds In the Atmoe
phere Far Above the Earth.
The fact that hail is formed at an
indefinite but, in most cases, great
height, above the surface of the earth,
and that it is commonly precipitated
when storms are raging, has prevented
any direct observation of the process of
freezing the vapor of the atmosphere
into ice pellets or large masses, and
what has been decided regarding the
phenomena of hailstorms is almost
wholly the work of theory and logic.
Nevertheless some points are pretty
clearly established.
In the first place, hail is the result,
as rule, of whirling or tornado-like
storms. There may be no whirling on
the surface of the earth but, according
to the Cleveland Leader, it seems GER
tain that in the higher regions of the
air, where hail is formed, there is al
ways an atmospheric disturbance re-
sembling what is commonly called a
cyclone when it sweeps the ground. A
curious Indication of the soundness of
this conclusion was to be noted the
other afternoon, when the storm which
WTOuSut SUCH udNOC Will ShyliSutS
had passed by. Out over the lake
there was great mass of cloud, very
high and dark, which had the form of
an oval race track of enormous proper
tions. 1t might easily have been fifty
miles in length and two-thirds that
distance in width. The formation of
the cloud mass was noticeably such as
might have resulted from the violent
whirling around moving center of the
whole bulk of cloud vapor. The ap-
pearance of the sky was thoroughly in
harmony with the accepted theory of
the formation of hail. 1t is believed
that the nucleus of large hailstone is
usually bit of snow or snow-like ice,
which falls from the snow strata, or
level, above the rain level, into the lat
ter, and is caught up with cloud Of
raindrops and mists into the higher

BAD FIRE IN NEW YORK.
Two Large Buildings Damaged and One
Ruined.F

Two Large Buildings Damaged and One
Ruined.5
New YORK, Dec. PA fire which
started in seven story factory at I'll
East Thirty third street today did $50.
900 damage. The fire started near the
air shaft and spread with such rapidity
that before the first engine arrived al
most the entire building was in flames.
Four alarms were sent out in quick
succession.
The fLmes burst from the rear win
dows of the factory and licked the walls
of the New York Polytechnic on Thirty
fourth street. In the Polyclinic were
so to 60 patients, among whom were 13
babies. All the occupants of the hos
pital were gotten out in safety, The
west side of the wall of the building on
Thirty. third street fell about 20 min
utes after the fire was discovered,
crushing an adjoining apartment house,
which was almost completely destroyed
by ire, together with No. POI, a five
story tenement adjoining.
On the other side of the burning fac
tory, stood a tenement house which
was also badly damaged. The second
floor, on which the fire started, was oc-
cupied by Adolph Timer, as snuff
mandatory, the remainder of the
building being used by B. F. Kalden-
berg as meerchaun pipe factory.
The factory building was almost to-
tally destroyed.
The intense cold turned the spray
from the hose into ice, which coated
everything not within reach of the
flames.

1t is generally agreed that London
fixes the price of the worlds markets
for all commodities, which is in a
manner true, but it does not follow
that the prices fixed on some commod-
tiles in London prevail throughout the
world. This appears to be true with
reference to wool. Not being satisfied
with the prices that prevailed here
last fall, Max Richter, of Mountvernou,
Grant county, determined to try the
experiment of shipping his wool to
Londcn. and he writes to friend in
this city that he has received returns
from the sale thereof. The wool
brought Ia cents and the expenses of
shipping were 81 cents, leaving Mr..
Richter 9 cents net for his wool. His
wool was not of an extra quality, The
best offer he could get her being
cents, so he has cleared cents per
pound by shipping to England.
