CRASH ON LAKE ERIE.
Two Big Steamers Come To
gether While Under Full
HeadWay.

Cleveland, July ga disastrous col
lision occurred in the lake three miles
from the mouth of the river shortly
after 1 o'clock this morning. AS a re-
suit the passenger steamer State of
New York is badly damaged, almost all
the upper works on the port side hav-
ing been swept away by the Prov of
the whaleback, Henry Cort, bound in.
The State of New York left her moor
ing shortly after midnight two hours
later than her scheduled time. She
was bound for Toledo and carried about
200 passengers. The big whaleback
steamer Henry Cort was due to arrive
with a tow and expecting her hourly,
the tug L. P. Smith left the mouth of
the river, following close after State of
New York. When about three miles
from shore Captain Ed Dalk of the tug,
heard a deafening crash. He at once
proceeded to the steamer finding her
badly disabled and taking aboard
number of passengers with whom he
returned to the harbOr
The Whaleback had struck the pas
senger boat near the paddle box which
it demolished and then swept away the
upper works for some distance.
There was a wild rush of passengers
in all stages of undress to the deck.
Officers and crew, however, acted with
the greatest GOODNESS and although all
the passengers were greatly excited,
order was soon restored and the reas-
sured passengers returned to their
state rooms to dress and collect their
baggage. A number of passengers were
taken aboard the whaleback. 1t is a
remarka BILE fact that no one was injur-
ed in the slightest, although a group of
20 persons were cOnVerSing on the deck
near the railing that was demolished.
Soon after the collision the big pas
senger steamer began to list badly,
showing the seriousness of the disaster.
Two tugs were sent to the rescue of
the boat and she was towed into the
river. The cause of the collision has not
yet been determined. The Henry Cort
belongs to the Rockefeller fleet. She is
said to have been burning her regula-
ton lights. She is not damaged. The
State of New York is owned by the
Cleveland and Buffalo Transit COM
pany.

Natives Claim Americans Aban-
dOned Navassa Island
And Prevent Landing of s'East-
ern Queen"
SOUGHT SUPPLE
Dangerous Negroes Threaten
to Kill
The First White Man Who
Attempts to Land.

Baltimore, July e.-A special cable
dispatch to the Sun from Kingston, ia
maica, says:
The captain of the schooner Eastern
Queen, six days out from Inuga reports
calling at Navassa island to take off
the tools and stores of the American
company which owns the property.
He found the island occupied by a
band of Haytians who prevented him
from landing by threatening to shoot
any person setting foot ashore. They
said the island had been deserted by
Americans and Is now Sn their possess
sion. Mr.. John Fowler, president of the
Phosphate company, who owns the is
land. said today:
1--WE have not abandoned Navassa
and when we had to withdraw our
workmen we left the United States flag
flying. All the property on the island
belongs to US. We have notified the
state department Of the reported occu-
West Indies who is located at Port
Au Prince, Hayti, has arranged with
the admiral of the Haytian provinces
to remove our property. The Haytians
claimed the island once before, but the
ruling of the state department when
Lewis CaSS was at it's head, decided
their claim out of order and respect has
been since accorded our claim to pos
session.
I'VE hold the United States govern
ment responsible for loss, if any may
occur to our property, as the island is
under the United States flag and only
United States laws apply to its gov
eminent and the discipline of our en-
ployes.
I'VE would continue working the de-
posits If we could get ships to load
there. Only this has stopped the bust
ness Of exporting and consequently en-
tails a loss upon US"

made a desperate night attack upon our
left shortly after 10 O'Clock Saturday
night. The assault was directed at the
position that had been carried by Gen.
Kent's men. The Spaniards left the
trenches and charged across the open.
striking heavily upon Gen. WikOff' s
brigade, consisting OF the Ninth Thir-
teenth and Twenty-fOurth infantry.
They were reinforced by a heavy fire
all along their line of guns batteries and
succeeded in driving some of our men
from the trenches, but the heavy fire the
Americans in return poured in stag
gered the Spanish line and sent it reel
ing backward with heavy loss.
The Americans had advanced from
the trenches, for the first time, and
while the SpaniardS were in the open
some of our Gatlings on the extreme
left did some terrible execution.
The casualties among our men were
not heavy. Gen. Hawkins was shot in
the foot. Over 200 additional wounded
men were taken to the rear during the
night, one consignment of 120.
Under Gen. Skaters orders the bat
tie was reopened at o'clock this morn
ing along the whole line. At this writ
ing the sound of the firing is like the
long roll of a, machine gun, punctuated
with the heavy boom Of the Spanish
batteries.
The recruits were ordered to the front
today. Our loss has now reached LOO
killed and wounded.
Part Of the night attack was directly
opposite the station of the Third and
Sixth cavalry. Captain Bowden, of the
Third cavalry, went with a working
party at 1 a. m. to straighten the line
of entertainments between Gen. Chat
fees brigade on the right and Gen.
Kent's division on the left. Whether
there was an accident is not known but
he clashed in the darkness with the
Spanish, who were advancing in front
of the working party and was obliged
to retire. ROllO of Troop E was killed,
and Poole, of Troope E was wounded
The Spanish did not advance close
enough to draw the fire of the Amer
lean main line. The action lasted about
at other points on our front. The Span
ish loss could not be ascertained.

To most people a backache. seems a
very simple thing, to be got rid Of by
working it off" Sometimes the pain
does work Om'-sOmetimes it does not
Whether it does or not, thoughtful peO-
pie have come to understand that
backache is a warning that is not to
be neglected without danger Of con-
tracing a disease that will limit life to
a few months, or maybe years of suf-
fering.
Kidney troubles have been better I'M
understood of late years, and kidney
troubles in relation to rheumatism and
neuralgia is only beginning to be fully
cOmprehended. The kidneys are the
filters through which the blood passes,
and if they get out of order the blood
remains impure and every part of the
body suffers. First the nerves tell the
tale. backache gives warning.
Headaches cry out that something is
wrong. The temper becomes irritable,
the nervous system is shattered and in
sanity is the next step.
When John Morrow, the great Amer
lean chemist, discovered and gave to
the world the remedy known as Nor
rows Kidneoids-a little yellow tablet
he could not then fully understand
what a benefit he was bestowing on HUI
manity. Time has fully proven that
thousands who otherwise would surely
have died have been restored to health
by these tabletS. The manner in which
this medicine acts is illustrated by. the
case of Mrs. Margaret Fitzgerald, a re-
spected lady of Springfield, Ohio, who
says:
Il have been a constant sufferer
from lame back and diseased kidneys
for many years. The pain in the back
would often compel me to give up work.
I tried different physicians and remed es
without permanent benefit. 1 at last
became discouraged and decided to do
nothing more for it,, when I heard of
the great success of Morrow's Kidne-
oids. 1 was reluctantly induced to try
q box. After a few days use I began
to experience a change. The pain be
came less severe, and before I knew it
the pain in my back had entirely disap-
peared I used the remainder of the
one box, and today feel perfectly well.
Morrow's Kideonids will do just what
the manufacturers claim for them"
Morrow's KidneOids are for sale in
all stores. If you cannot find them,
they will be sent post paid by the Herb
Medicine Co, Springfield. Ohio, upon
receipt of price-50 cents per box, or
six boxes for 81 so.

SCHLEY THE HERO.
Prevented the Escape Of Ger
vera's Fleet.

Copyright, 1898, by Associated Press.)
Off Santiago de Cuba, by way Of
Kingston, Jamaica, July 6.-After a
chase of 60 miles to the westward, the
Brooklyn, closely followed by the Or
egon overhauIed the CristObal Colon
after she had ran ashore and had haul
ed down her flag. Captain Cook, of the
Brooklyn went on board of her and the
commander of the Spanish armored
cruiser came forward to surrender and
was taken on board the New York
which came up an hour after the
Brooklyn and the Oregon had compile
ted the capture of the Cristobal Colon
The latter was not seriously dam
aged, though she was struck several
times by shots from the Brooklyn and
Oregon.
During the chase, a clever maneuver
of Commodore Schley's in heading due
west to Cape Caney, while the Cristobol
Colon had taken more southerly d.
rectiOn, with a much greater distance
to cover, rendered the Spaniard's es-
cape impossible.
There seems to be no doubt that the
Cristobal Colon, and perhaps the other
three Spanish armored cruisers would
have escaped had it not been for the
prompt action of Commodore SchIey.
The Brooklyn, his flagship, alone was
in a position to attack the Spanish yes
sells as they left the harbOr, and the
commodore steamed directly LOW al -
them and engaged the four cruisers, in
fiicting great damage upon them. me
Oregon was the first to join the Brook
Ign and afterward the Iowa, Indiana,
Texas and Vixen closed around the
Spaniards, all pouring in a deadly fire,
but, from the beginning to the end of
the fight the Brooklyn, Oregon and
Gloucester took the most important
part in the destruction Of the enemy.
One man. George H. Ellis, was killed
on board the Brooklyn. His head was
blown off by a shell. One other man,
J. Burns, was injured on board of her.
The Brooklyn was struck half a dozen
times, but no injury was done to any
of the other American ships.

Mail to All People.

Washington, July 6-First Assistant
Postmaster General Heath said today
that inquiries had been made in re-
guard to the postal service to Cuba and
the Philippines as to whether letters
could be sent to or from persons other
than soldiers and sailors. He said that
the mail services to these places is pre-
ciseIy the same as to any part of the
United States and mail will be trans
mitted to any one.
The postage to be affixed is the same
as upon the ordinary mail carried by
the postoffice, in the case of letters be-
ing two cents for each ounce or frac-
ton thereof. These rules will apply
to any pOstoffices established in terri
tory occupied by our forces.

aboard the Oregon. Several hours after
the Colon went ashore head on, she
hoated and was beginning to sink and
the New York then rammed her several
times, using tenders. 1t is hoped she
will be saved to become part Of the
United States navy.
Admiral Cervera held a consultation
with his officers before sailing out of
the harbOr of Santiago de Cuba, and by
a small majority the move was agreed
upon. The minority said that destruc-
ton was sure, as many of the firemen
had Tnutinied and the best men in the
fleet were worn out by serving the guns
in the shore batteries.
Early on the morning Of the sOrtie,
careful observations were taken of the
sea, east and west. Admiral Cervera
decided upon taking the westward
course, with ManzanillO, CienfuegOs, or,
If possible Havana, the port to be
reached. He would have gone east but
for the sighting of a large transport
a convoy of war vessels was still with
the transports.
AS a matter of fact, there is no war
vessel larger than a converted yacht,
except the New York that could have

swan ashore from the Vizcaya, the Al
mirante Oquendo and the Maria Teresa

Measles is spreading in the Tennessee
and Kansas regiments, which are espe-
cially harassed by the disease, although
none of the regiments at the camp has
escaped. Surgeons say that measles
break out in most new levies of troops,
run a more or less extended course and
die out. There are patients Quarantined

FOREIGNERS LEAVE MANILA
War Vessels Have No Further Bust
ness There.

Washington, July 6.-As yet the state
department has received no confirma-
ton of the statement which reaches
here from London that upon the arrival
at Manila of the American land forces
several warships of Germany and other
European powers which had been there
for some time left immediately for
other ports. In official circles however,
the announcement is regarded as au-
thentic.
It is pointed out that the only possible
pretext upon which forces from foreign
men-of-War could have been landed in
Manila would have been the prOtec-
ton of the lives or interests of their
own cOuntrymen residing there. State
department officials say that with the
arrival of the American endorsements
for Admiral Dewey, the danger that
foreigners in Manila would suffer was
eliminated from the situation and that
a large number of warships probably
left, merely because their presence was
no longer necessary.

Washington, July 6.-There has been
some question as to the delay in send
ing back the transports that are at San
tiago. Their failure to return is ex-
planned that they are held to bring back
the wounded. The present programme
is to place the injured men upon these
transports and bring them to this coun-
try. Fort Monroe will be their destina-
ton. This military reservation at the
entrance to Chesapeake Bay will be
turned into military hospital. 1t is
admirably located for this purpose. It
is so far north as to be removed from
the objections which attach to Florida
points on account of heat and there is
ample room accommodation for all the
wounded men.
The transports will also be used to
convey the thousands of prisoners al
ready captured. These will be taken
to Fort Mcpherson, near Atlanta, and
will be held until the close of the war
The feeding Of these prisoners, as we'll
as the starving people of Santiago, has
been fully provided for in the arrange
ments made by the subsistence depart
ment of the army.
