Porto Ricans Believe the Spanish Coin.
WilsAdiyance tnsvalue.
WAsHIHaToN, Nov. The financial
situation in Porto Rico is giving the
secretary Of the treasury much concern,
and it is quite probable that the early
part of the coming week importantmod-
iications Of existing orders in relation
thereto may be made. It is understood
that the customs officers at San Juan are
receiving only pesos in payment Of dues,
and refuse to accept United States
money. The effect of this is said to be
q material advance in the value Of the
peso and the brokers are beginning to
hoard them in expectation Of a still
further rise. It is also said that the be-
lief is current in Porto Rico that the
United States ultimately will redeem
the Spanish silver coins in United States
money at considerable advance over
present ruling prices, and this is an adj
ditional motive for boarding, SO that
the monetary circulation Of the island
already has become noticeably con
tracted.

New YORK, Nov. 22.-That the 20
round bout between James J. Corbett
and Thomas Sharkey will be brought to
a decision before the Lenox club next
Tuesday without any police or other in
reference is now a certainty. Reports
from both sides are to the effect that
each man is in the best possible condi-

winning. Corbett is slight favorite in
the betting.

THE TOWN IN DANGER.

Ozark Mountains Around Macomb, Mo-,
-Ablaze for Miles. - F. :
MACoMB, Mo-, Nov. 22.-The largest
and most destructive. conhagration that
has ever swept over the Ozark noun
tains since 1884, is now circumscribing
this town for miles and miles. The au-
tumn foliage has rapidly fallen since
frost and is supposed to have been fired
from sparks of freight engines. A scope
of country 10 miles long is in flames;
miles of fences, orchards, plantations,
farms and dry pasture fields, stocked
with cattle and other animals, and many
other settlers homes lie directly in the
line of the ravaging monster. ~.
Whole neighborhoods are advancing
to the scene, but find themselves totally
unable to check the flames. Their only
remedy is to hurriedly turn out stock
from the way Of the fire and leave
property to the flames. The altitude is
LOO feet, and with strong southwest
erly wind prevailing, terrible destruc-
ton is feared. The town of MacomE
will probably be destroyed. -

THEIR ARMS TAKEN FROM THEM

MACON, Ga., Nov. 22.-The Sixth Vir-
GINA negro regiment that caused so
much trouble at Knoxville, is under ar
rest in camp at Macon, all their arms and
ammunition having been taken from
them. They are guarded by a battalion
of the Tenth Immunes, also negroes.
About midnight 70 or 80 Of the Sixth
broke through the lines at camp and
started to town, with the avowed pur-
pose Of killing the white provost guards,
each man being armed with a rifle and
a belt full of cartridges. Information
concerning the action Of the negroes was
sent to provost headquarters, and Gen.
eral Wilson at once ordered Colonel
Gaillard Of the Third Engineers out to
arrest the negroes. The Third went
double quick to the camp of the Sixth
and found them rioting and disorderly.
Further trouble is feared when the Sixth
is released from the guardhouse.

DEATH RATE VERY LOW,

War Department Gets an Encouraging
Report From the Philippines.
WASHINGTON. Nov. %. Word has
been received at the war department. of
the death Of J. A. Smith, private of Com
pany G, South Dakota, Of apoplexy fol-
lowing malarial fever.
The war department officials say that
the report showing such small death
rate among SO many soldiers is extremely
gratifying, and indicates an improved
condition at Manila. That only one
death should occur in 10000 soldiers
since the last report, week or ten days
ago, is very surprising. The department
believes there has been great improve
ment in the health conditions in the
Philippines.
