city has never been so excited
since the strained relations be-
tween this country and Spain
began as it has been today. In
every corridor of the hotels
congressman are gathered and
talking over the serious condi-
ton of affairs.
There is not one in fifty among
them WHO does not say that
there is not the least chance of
this country escaping war with
Spain. Men who have hereto
fore hoped. and from their
hopes Matched out the idea that
we would not have war. tonight
say it can not be avoided.
Extra editions of the papers
this morning showed that the
Spanish government had asked
for the recall of Gen. Lee as
consul at Havana. and also that
our war vessels should not car
ry the provisions intended to be
transported to the starving in
Cuba.
On account of the yellow
journalism now rampant in
this country, there were many
who did not believe what had
been published. Even the fact
that the dispatch had been sent
from Madrid by the Associated
Press did not relieve it from
suspicion. But this evening
Assistant Secretary of State
Day admitted that the dispatch
was correct. and gave out the
answer of the president to it as
follows: 1.-THE president will
not consider the recall of Gen.
Lee. He has borne himself
throughout the crisis with judg-
ment, fidelity and courage, and
to the presidents satisfaction.
As to the supplies to the Gu
bans, all arrangements have
been made to carry consign-
ments this week from Key
West by one of the naval yes
sells. whichever may be best
adapted and most available for
the purpose to Sagua and Ma
tanzas.

mand for the recall of Lee.
said:
"A government has a perfect
right to give a consul his pa

comes dissatisfied with him.
Sometimes the govern 1ent
from which he is accredited is
not notified of the intentions of

waialua plantation, which has been
talked OF for several years and more
especially within the past three
months, is now assured. AS stated In
this paper recently, however, 1t will
be some time before the deal is closed
up and operations inaugurated. The
report that w. J. Lowrie, Of Eva, is
to be manager Of Waialua, Is regarded
as premature. MIR. Lowrie Is at present
abroad. In the new enterprise will be
included Halstead's present plantation,
the Gaspar Sylvia ranch, the Gay and
other lands. Mr.. Dillingham;, Castle
e. Cooke and McCandless Bros. will be

to be three millions and a half, with

About one month ago my child,
which Is fifteen months old, had an at
tack of diarrhoea accompanied by
vomiting. gave 1t such remedies as
are usually given in such cases, but
as nothing gave relief, we sent for a
physician and 1t was under his care for
a week. At this time the child had
been sick for about ten days and was
having about twenty-five operations Of
the bowels every twelve hours. and
We were convinced that unless It soon
obtained relief 1t would not live.
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy was recommended, and
! decided to try 1t. ! soon noticed a
change for the better: by its continued
use complete cure was brought about
and II Is now perfectly healthy.-C. l..

fered as a plea for his action that her
crew consisted Of Filipinos who might
smuggle contraband articles. The San
Nicolas, after reporting her experience,
sailed again, followed by the United
States gunboat McCuHoch. The in
surgent ship Mariola entered Ma

Yesterday the British consul at Ma
Mia convened a meeting Of merchants
to discuss the commercial deadlock.
British capital to the amount Of $780,
600, 900 has been lying idle here for six
months. In the existing conditions bus
iness relations with the provinces have
been, in many cases, entirely suspend
ed. The meeting resolved to make an
urgent appeal to the British govern
ment to endeavor to hasten a settle
nent Of pending issues.
The attitude of the insurgent troops
has become very menacing. Their sup
plies are growing scarce, and they are
becoming desperate. Their leaders as
sure the troops, who have had no pay
for months, that they will soon capture
Manila. The Filipino newspapers insist
upon absolute independence and de-
nounce annexation to the United States
or an American protectorate with equal
energy. The American authorities, both
naval and military, are taking precau-
tionary measures, although no i'm
mediate trouble is anticipated.

UNIQUE ASSURANCE.
Grand Marais Indians Send Proos

Grand Marais Indians Send Proof of
Their Loyalty to Washington.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S.-The fol-
lowing unique assurance Of loyalty to
the government has been received al
the Indian bureau from the Grand Ma
rails band Of Chippewas of Minnesota;
The Great Father: The Grand Marais hand
OF Chippewa Indians Of Minnesota are in
council this evening, fifteenth of October, 1898
we wish to say to you that our forefathers
for many generations have lived here in the
eastern part OF the state Of Minnesota when
there were great many Indians and yerv
lew whites, and we have never heard of them
committing any depredations or wronging any
white man up to the present time. The rea-
son we say this to you is that we hear of
those foolish Indians at Bear island, Leech
Lake, Of the wrong they are doing, and the
mistakes they have made in fighting the
government and It's laws.
We also hear of what this chief, Bug-ah-ma-
ge-shig said. When holding up his right hand
to heaven, he declared that all the Chippewas
OF Minnesota were backing him. When we
heard Of this remark that he made we, did
not like 1t. We are now living in peace, and
hope that we will continue living So We
like all our friends, the palefaces and thev
like us. We are Christians and live I'D to
the rules of the church. The Bible tells us
in the fifth commandment "Thou shalt not
XIII, and how could we wrong our neighbor?
We say now as Indians living in the east
end of Minnesota that we do not approve of
what the Bear island Indians are doing and
do not propose to help them or encourage
them. Joe Cartbo. Chief

victim is Vespian Smith, son Of Frank
b. Smith. who kepes a drug store at
101 West Superior street. He was in
stantly killed this morning by charge
Of buckshot fired by an unknown man.
The only companions Of the unfortu-
nate young man were Phillip Hanft
and Smiths pet dog
The boys went out about seven miles
from the city and camped, intending
to hunt partridges in the morning.
Shortly before O'clock Hanft was
half awakened by a light shining in
his face. He was startled to full con-
sciousness by a shot and half arose.
He saw two men standing ON the cycle
path about forty feet to the east, and
Cne of the men had a buIls-eye lantern
in his hat
Smith had to all appearances not
stirred, and Hanft, filed with sudden
fear that all was not right, leaned over
and called him. The boy was dead.
The two men. as soon as Hanft
spoke, ran east and disappeared. 1t
is thought that the dog must have
stirred and aroused Smith, as he is shot
just above the left ear and just back
Of the ear. There is a deep cut along
his face, as though another shot had
torn the flesh in passing. Indignation
and sympathy were universal through
out the city when the news spread yes
terday.
