ORDERS TO DISBAND,
Masso Will Send the Cuban Soldiers
Home by Request of Colonel Ray.

Masso VIII Send the Cuban Soldiers
Home by Request of Colonel Ray.
Santiago de Cuba, Oct. l5.--Senor
Bartolome Masso, accompanied by two
mem bers of his staff, arrived this morn
ing at Manzanillo from Santa Cruz del
Sur, in Puerto Principe, about 20 miles
from Manzanillo, where the Cubans
now have their headquarters, and
where, October 20, the Cuban Assem- bly,
will meet to elect new president and
to decide as to the plans for disband-
ing the army, il dishandment is con-
sidered advisable, and as to other i'm
portant matters.
He called at once on Colonel Ray,
who received him courteousiy, expressed
pleasure at the opportunity OF an in
terview, and said he hoped Senior Mas
so would arrange for disbanding the
Cubans under General Rios In the
neighborhood of Manzanillo, so that
work in the field could begin. He
also earnestly advised the pres ident Of
the Cuban provisional government to
disband the Cuban troops at all points
now in possession OF the United States
forces, in order that the men might
give the assistance so greatly needed to
place the country in position to re-
cover from the evils Of the three-year
war.
Senior Masso readily agreed to carry
ont Colonel Rays request, and said
that General Rios would receive or ders
Immediately to disband his men.

THE LIZARD WRECK.
Bodies Of Many Of the Victims Have
Been Recovered.

London, Oct. lS.-The Atlantic
Transport Company issued the follow
ing statement this evening regarding
the fate Of the passengers and crew of
the steamer Mohegan, which was
wrecked last Friday evening off the
Lizard. between the Manacles and Low
lands:
"Of the passengers, IL have been
saved. 10 bodies have been recovered,
and S3 are missing. OF the crew and
cattlemen, 80 have been saved, ii bod
les have been recovered, and 81 are
missing"
Since this statement was issued, nine
other bodies have been picked up. in
Guiding two that have been identified
as those of passengers. The reports Of
the various correspondents differ widely
as to the rescues. recoveries and losses,
though none agree as to the exact num-
Der of those saved or OF the bodies re-
covered.
The bodies of the following passengers
have been recovered: T. W. King.
Edna King, Master King, Mrs. Weller,
James Blackey, Miss II. NJ. Cowen, NJ.
Fallows, b. franklin Fuller, Mrs. l..
M. Luke, George Seymour, Miss L. II.
Warrener.
The latest advices from Falmouth
this evening say that 3S bodies have
been identified, mostly the bodies Of
sailors. Four are as yet unidentified,
including those of two elderly ladies.
One appears to be German. She wore
a watch and wedding ring, both en-
graved "1S7l." The other wore a sill.
yer brooch with the letters 80" in
pearls. This is probably the body of
Mrs. Charles Duncan. Nine of the bod
les have been brought to Falmouth;
church at st. Keverine.
The rescued passengers are being
sheltered in cottages along the shore,
and the crew at the sailors home at
Falmouth.
Tugs have been cruising in the vicin-
ity all day. despite the very rough
weather, in the hope of picking up
other bodies.
The cause of the disaster remains the
profoundest mystery. Nobody at
tempts to explain how the Mohegan got
so far north of her true course-from
six to seven miles. There was no fog
at the time. while the wind on her port
quarter was not sufficient to prevent
her answering the helm. 1t has been
suggested that her compass was faulty;
but daylight lasted long after Eddy
stone light was passed. The sailors
say the fact that the Lizard light was
visible should have served to give the
alarm.

COMMERCE OF THE PACIFIC.
Will Be Increased by the Retention Of
the Philippines.

Seattle. Wash. Oct. II. ID. E.
Brown. general agent of the Canadian
Pacific Railway & Steamship Company
at Hong Kong. speaking today of the
growth of trade between this country
and the Orient, said:
1.-THE trade OF the last five years
should more than double in the next
five years. owing, in the first place, to
increased transportation facilities, and
in the second place to the close rela-
lions that will have to exist hereafter
between this country and the Orient as
the result of holding the Philippine
islands. We are perfectly willing that
the United States should hold on to
the Philippine islapda, and when once
the matter is definitely settled, and
business is again in full swing, it will
not be long before the commerce of the
Pacific will be as great as that of the
Atlantic. Especially will this be the
case when railroads shall open up China
to the commercial and industrial world,
and make this Northwest coast its
landing point.o

London, Oct. 18.-The Alexandria
correspondent of the Daily Mail, tee-
graphing regarding the anarchist plot
against Emperor William, which was
discovered Friday, says:
The plot against the kaiser is hourly
proving more important, each arrest
disclosing new ramifications. The doc
uments found disclose a plot to kill
King Humbert already we'll matuied.
Fifteen persons. all Italians, have been
arrested. The original plan was to
throw a bomb of guncotton and full
inmate OF mercury on Emperor Will
liam's carriage in narrow street of
Cairo. When the Egyptian tip was
abandoned, elaborate arrangements were
made by the conspirators to send con-
federates to Jerusalem to carry out the
plot during the dedication Of the Ger

Plot Against Emperor william.

Alexandria, Egypt, Oct. 1.-THE
Alexandria police have arrested nine
Italian anarchists since last night. and
have thereby frustrated plot against
Emperor William, now ON his way to
the Holy Land, to be present at the
conservation Of the Church of the Savior
at Jerusalem. The first arrested was
a cafe keeper, well-known anarchist,
in whose house the police discovered
two wire bombs OF great strength and
full of bullets. This arrest was made
in consequence of the notification from
the Italian consul-general at Cairo that
two anarchists had left Cairo for Port
Said.

GOMEZ is OBSTINATE.
The Cuban General Refuses to Disband
His Army.

New York, Oct. 1S.-A dispatch
from Havana says: 1t is generally be.
lieved serious breach has taken place
between the executive department of
the Cuban republic and the leaders OF
the military forces. Word was received
here that General Wood has received a
communication from President Masso,
advising that nothing be done by the
Americans that can be construed as re-
cognizing the Cuban government. Mas
so has been joined by his colleagues in
declaring that the time has arrived for
disbanding the Cuban forces. This
course will be vigorously com batted by
General Gomez.
General Juan Ducasse. one of the
closest advisers of Gomez, has arrived
in Havana to consult the opponents of
Masso and all those who favor Cuban
republic and oppose further American
intervention. General Ducasse declares
that Gomez will lead the insurgents
back into the field before he will SUBJ
NIT to disarming them while the Amer
lean and Spanish soldiers remain in
Cuba.
Colonel Warnings first inspection of
the city filled him with surprise. Con-
ditions are much worse than he expect

in Havana number about 800 week.
They now average fully 100 a day.

The disastrous outcome to the man

What new bull leader would now invite

The present movement Of wheat to

such total as that in six days before.
Is not the speculator doing pretty we'll

also maintaining prices? Is not the fact
that such volume of grain is financed
and the price sustained evidence that
the volume Of speculation is larger than
the very narrow fluctuations would
indicate?

Wreck OF THE M0HEGAN

100, is ashore off the Lizard. between

1t is rumored that there has been o
great loss of life.
the passengers are drowning like
rats"
Another account says: Bodies are
washing ashore, one being that Of a
lady dashed to plank, with both legs
severed"
Particulars of the disaster are diff
cult to obtain. 1t appears that when
the Mohegan struck gale was blowing
and the sea was running high.
Lifeboats put off from the Lizard and
from Falmouth, one returning filed
with passengers. Several were drowned,
however, it is reported, on the passage
of the lifeboat to the shore. Another
liieboat saved six persons.
The coast at that point is extremely
dangerous, and has been the scene OF
numerous wrecks. Some years ago
there was movement set on foot to get
lightship placed there, but it failed.
A dispatch from Falmouth says the
Mohegan foundered and was probably
blown ashore by the heavy east wind
after her machinery was disabled.
All the Falmouth tugs went out but
were unable to approach the vessel.
A lifeboat has landed 80 OF the Mohe-
gan's passengers and returned for more.
One lady died after she was brought
ashore. 1t is rumored that the position
of the Mohegan is serious and assistance
is urgently needed.
According to dispatch just received
from Falmouth, out of 200 passengers
constituting the passengers and crew of
the Mohegan, only 81 have been saved.
This intelligence was forwarded from
the coast guard by telephone to Fall

GOT TWO OF THEM,

OF late there has been much COM
plant of houses being entered and
small sums of money being extract
ed. The police have been watchtuI,
but it was only yesterday that any
sort of clue could be had to fix
the guilt upon any one.
Yesterday two negro girls applied
at the Edwards Harness shop, for
bicycle, saying they wanted to
rent one tor an hour, The girls
looked to be about twelve years old
and when Mr.. Edwards questioned
them closely as to who they we're,
he found they tried to eyade by
giving answers not satisfactory and
he noticed that they had more
money than he thought two girls
OF their age should carry. He re-
ported the fact to Marshal Casey,
and the officer instructed Mr.. Ed
wards to arrest them on their ap-
pearance again, This morning
they showed up tor the purpose OF
renting another wheel and Mr. Ed
wards took them in, He found one
of them had pocket book contain
ing $ll.55, and that she had a new
hat and new pair of shoes. She
said she had no home, but lived a
bout from place toplace. Her com
panion said, that the girl came to
their home a few days ago and ask
ed if she might stay there for a
time as she had no home, and that
her mother gave her consent. The
officers think the money found was
stolen from Mrs. Davidson, an engi-
neer's wife, who liyes at 7O3 Hazel
street, who reported Yesterday
that she had been robbed of $28, 90,
Marshall Casey will try and make
the girls tell all they know about
the many thefts committed about
here, as it is thought they are the
ones who have been made to enter
houses and rob the same.
