Santiago de Cuba, Oct ia dispatch
from Manzanillo to the office of the AS
sociated Press here says now that the
American flag is flying over the city, the
Cuban element has come to the surface.
The people are seemingly enthusiastic. In
the office of the collector was found a ca
bic message from Senior Montero, the chief
of customs a Havana, notifying him that
the military occupation of the Americans
was not 10 affect the civil administration,
which is stll under autonomous govern
ment and to remit regularly all funds to
Havana by a trusted messenger The
Mayor had similar Instructions from the
minister of justice. But Col. Ray the
American military commander at Manzan-
lilo, is not the man to stand nonsense He
Immediately suspended the protesting Of
ficials and temporarily appointed others.
Not a cent, however, was found in the
treasury.
Col Ray to-day received a message
from Senior Maso, president of the in
surgent government, asking our com
mander If he, Maso, could make an un-
official visit to Manzanillo without being
discourteously treated by the Americans
in authority. The colonel replied that
he would be glad to receive Senior Maso
and the insurgent steamer Fernando left
Santa Cruz del Sur to bring Maso to
Manzanillo where he win probably ar
rive on Thursday.
The arrival here Of the insurgent presI-
dent will probably simplify the important
question of the disarmament of the in
surgent forces in the Manzanillo jurisdic-
ton.

CUBA's RAILROAD SYSTEM.
Secretary AIger TO Recommend nm
Extension to Congress.

W 1OhEEE
Washington, oct. 12.-Secretary Alger
viii recommend to Congress that the ex-
isting railroad system in Cuba be extended
so as to form line running directly from
Cape Maysi, at the east end Of the island,
to Cape Antonio on the western extremity.
He will also recommend that this work be
undertaken by the United States govern
ment and that Congress appropriate the
necessary funds.
The secretary expects to serve double
purpose by the construction Of this road
In the first place, II is a military necessity
The existing railroad system in Cuba Is
extremely crude; 1t is not possible to get
troops within 300 or 400 miles of Santiago
by rail from Havana.
No less important service to be served
by the construction of the road Is TO re-
store prosperity to the island at the earliest
possible moment and alleviate the distress
now existing among the native Cubans
The construction Of the railroad will give
work TO many of the unemployed native
iaborers.
AS the road progresses sections of the
country viii be opened up that are now
inaccessible to trade.

TRAIN REACHES SPRINGFIELD.
Had Aboard Eight Wounded Depu-
ties and One wounded Negro.

Springfield. ILL.,, Oct 1.-THE special
train on the Chicago and Alton. which
brought the Alabama negroes from vir-
den, had eight wounded men-all deputies,
except one, a negro miner, who were
taken to the Springfield City Hospital.
OF these men, one died tonight, William
w. Carroll, a deputy sheriff. He was shot
three times.
Another train. which arrived at 9 o. clock,
brought up six wounded men, who are at
St Johns Hospital.
Those at the Springfield City Hospital
are:
William H. Clarkson. an inmate of the
Old Soldiers Home, at Leavenworth, Kan,
deputy, skull crushed; will die.
H. A. Tigar of Bloomington, engineer
on train; shot through the arm.
William Massey of st. Louis. shot
through the head shoulder and hands; will
probably recover.
James Palmer deputy, shot in left side
of face arm and side will recover. Pal
mer had just been mustered out of the
Third Nebraska Regiment. He refuses
to give his home.
Patrick Mack of virden, employed by
the operators, of the Chicago Virden shaft,
bullet went through his thigh will re-
cover.
Ernest Ryan, a colored miner from Ala
bama, bullet through his head; will re-
cover.
John NJ. Hunter of Pontiac, the president
of The Illinois district of the United Mine
Workers of America, lies at the Collins
House in a critical condition. Mr.. Hunter
got on the train which bore the negro
miners to this city this afternoon and
engaged in conversation with two of the
negro miners. Some of the deputy sher-
ifs saw Hunter, and when the train was
between North Grand avenue
and the north shaft, and
was going at the rate Of eigh-
teen miles an hour, it is estimated, the
deputies attacked Hunter and pushed him
off the train. A man happened along
later in a buggy and saw Hunter lying
near the track in an unconscious condi-
ton. and placed him in his buggy and
took him 10 the Collins House. where a
physician dressed his wounds He is ter
ribly cut about the face, and his ribs are
injured. He is still unconscious.
Gov. Tanner tonight wired the war de-
nartment. asking II the Fifth Illinois In
fantrv could not be placed at his disposal
for use at Virden. Col. Culver, the COM
mander of the Fifth, has rendered his
services and those of the regiment to the
Governor.
The miners are gathered in little knots
on the streets Of the city tonight but
there has been no demonstration. They
saw they recognized some of the negroes
who arrived here from Virden this after
noon as some of those who came up three
weeks ago from Alabama and refused to
90 to work at Vrden, and who were sent
home at the expense of the miners union.

CAMP SITES IN CUBA.
Two Sites Have Already Been Selects
ed by the Commission.

Two Sites Have Already Been Selects
ed by the Commission.
Havana, oct. l2.-The sites for at least
two American camps have already been
selected by the commission appointed for
that purpose. The first will be outside
Guanabacoa. across the bay from Havana,
and the second will be at GuanaJay, TWEEN
~ miles from here The main object In
view in tho selection OF the camps, be-
side their healthy location, is the possl-
bility OF approaching them from the sea
without having to enter the harbor of Ha-
vana, which is considered to be the source
of infection.
At a private conference at the palace yes
terday Gen Wade requested Capt Gen.
Rlanco to cause the evacuation at the ear
Hest possible date of two posts on the ISL
and, in order to facilitate the immediats
bringing of relief rations into Cuba.
Col. Rowen and his alde-de-camp arriv-
ed here last night. thus completing their
trip from Santiago.
The colonel had an Interview with Gen.
Gomez and found the insurgent COM
mander eager to cooperate with the
United States. Gen. Gomez was In favor
of thu Cubans being disbanded as soon
as the Spaniards evacuated the island
and permanent form of government is
established. II is probable that Gen. Go
mez will be elected president. He is i'm
favor OF a general election in which Gu
bans and Spaniards will alike take part
and In which all taxpayers will have q
vote and a voice.
A note was handed to our commission
ers yesterday by the Spaniards treating
of the fortresses, batteries and fortihca-
iions and dcfenses OF the island as belong
ing to the United States, which shows
that some progress Is being made In the
work which the military commissions
were to carry out.

Bill Nye's Long Search.

When the late "Bil" Nye was boy
he and his brother once had great
time searching after calf that had
got lost in a piece of woods. The
search was kept up for days. Finally
it had to be abandoned. Everybody
but the humorist forgot all about it,
and he said nothing of it to any one
for more than twenty years. One day
his brother-the same who had helped
in the search-got letter from Bill,
in which pending long trip to Europe
was described.
The letter wound up something like
this: "You see, I'm going a long
ways, and shall be away some time.
While I'm gone I shall keep sharp
lookout everywhere. Maybe I'll find
that blame calf. I've looked for it
everywhere in the United States
without success, and I'm going to try
the old world. .".-Philadelphia Press.

Arrested p Whole Funeral.


II has long been the custom of
funerals the world over to proceed
slowly; not so, however, with funerals
In the outskirts of Brooklyn. The
other day in that city q funeral was
spinning along when the hearse driver
carelessly ran over boys bicycle and
ruined II.
The policeman, who gave chase, over
hauled the hearse, climbed up on the
box and arrested the driver for his
cecklessness.
"All you people follow mew the po-
liceman shouted to the drivers of the
carriages in the funeral cortege.
Thereupon he turned the horses
toward the police station and started
them at trot. The hearse driver was
dumb with astonishment. All the car.
riages dutifully trundled along behind.
Imagine the astonishment of the citi.
zens of Brooklyn upon seeing a whole
funeral procession trotting toward thu
lookup. The unhappy occupants of the
carriages, knowing nothing of the rea
son for the change In their itinerary,
were full of indignation.
The sergeant refused to entertain ths
charge against the hearse driver, and
he advised the boy to get a warrant for
the driver il he wished to Etosacute
him. Thereupon the funeral procession
resumed its journey toward the ceme-
