At Fort Douglas.

Last week was another gay one in
society at Fort Douglas. 1t was. not
so much the number of events. but
rather their briIliancy that marked the
week as onesof the most pleasant that
the garrison has had this winter In
times OF peace garrison life becomes
very menotonous unless there are some
balls, parties or other gatherings to
help while away the time Fort Doug
las is not like frontier post in this
respect, for it is not dependent entirely
upon IT'S own resources for the little
gaieties that sweetens the cup of life
In the little frontier posts, where the
fort is the only settlement within miles
of the spot, the army people are forced
to attend the soldiers minstrel shows
in the post hall, for want of a better
entertainment in the way of theatre
Gals. Amateur operas and other forms
of entertainment are gotten up among
the officers and ladies at frequent in
tervals, and card parties, balls, dinners,
and the numberless other forms of en-
tertainment occur more often than they
do at Fort Douglas. Here the people
can attend the theatres in the city, and
are entertained by the society people
of Salt Lake, so that even though there
are few events in the post, the officers

week were the several card parties

DIR. Schenck's Theory Said to Have
Been Successfully Tested Again.

DIR. Schenck's Theory Said to Have
Been Successfully Tested Again.
ROME, Oct. 23.-The Duchess of Aosta,
who gave birth to a boy yesterday. had been
under the treatment of DR.. Schenck, and
this is another triumph for the great en-
bryologist of Vienna, who a year ago an
nounced that he had discovered the prin-
ciples which regulate the production of
male children. The Duchess of Aosta is the
third woman Of high rank to demonstrate
the efficacy of DR.. Schencks treatment. The
first was the Archduchess Frederick of Aus
tria, the second the Countess of Warwick.
The child born yesterday may one day
be King of Italy. Should this come
to pass a plan of revenge against
the Pope long cherished by the
Duchess of Aosta, and for the reali-
zation of which she consulted DIR. Schenck,
would be fulfilled. The Duke of Aosta is
next heir to the throne after the Prince of
Naples, and his son, of course, inherits his
rights. The Pope opposed the marriage of
the beautiful Princess Helene d'Orleans to
the Duke of Aosta. That princess of this
family should be the mother of a probable
Italian King who typifies disobedience to
the Holy See was very painful. The Duchess
of Aosta never forgot this Besides, it was
the second time she had been crossed by the
Pope.
She was in love with the English Duke of
Clarence, who died, and he returned her
love. The Pope absolutely forbade her to
think of marrying the Duke of Clarence,
though it is altogether unlikely that the
duke, on his side, could have persuaded
his family and the statesmen of England
to consent to such an alliance. Disappointed
in love, only ambition was left to the
princess. To satisfy this she married the
Duke of Aosta, who was then looked upon
the heir apparent of the Italian throne,
since the crown prince was not strong and
apparently had no notion of matrimony.
The betrothal of the Prince of Naples to
the Montenegro beauty was bitter disap-
pOintment to the duchess

WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-Abeut Repub~
lican headquarters the expectation is that
the Republicans may lose twenty to twen-
ty-fve representatives in the next Congress-
in the territory east of the Mississippi and
that they will surely gain not less than fif-
teen west of the Mississippi. If these ex-
rectations are realized the Republicans will
have majority of about thirty in the next
House. There is no mistaking the increased
confidence which is felt among the CAM
paign managers in the outcome. The Re-
aroused to the dangers which would follow
a Democratic and Populistic victory at the
polls. Within. the last few days there has
been lining up of Republican forces in all
parts of the country Even in New York
and Pennsylvania, where factional dis
turbances threatened to result in a loss OF
many representatives, party harmony is be-
ing restored. Advices from beyond the Mis-
souri, are especially encouraging. California,
for instance, is likely to return solid Re-
publican delegation and to elect United
States senator in the place Of Mr.. White.
The State of Washington, which was al.
most a forlorn hope up to a few weeks ago,
is now claimed with confidence by the Re-
publicans, who fully expect to elect both
representatives and to return Senator Will
son. There will be a. substantial gain in
Kansas. Nebraska will hold her <ozxsls sJl
possibly score a gain. The Republicans sof
Missouri pledge themselves to return an In
creased number Of congressman to the next
House.

county. crept up to the town and shot three
whites stationed there as guards. They were

others slightly. There is great excitement
at all points in the State in communication
with Lumberton. The whites are telegraph

Other dispatches say that four of the
negroes who shot the three white guards
have been captured near Ashpole. They
were run down and brought to bay by the
bioodhounds. which are thoroughly trained.
One hundred white men participated in the
chase The negroes are now confined in
box cars at Ashoole and heavily guarded.
IT is uncertain yet what will be their fate,
but it is feared their attempt to kill the
guards will so exasDerate the whites as to
cause further and more serious trouble.
The guard was composed of eight or ten
men. who were standing around the fire in
the open air, thus becoming easy targets for
the negroes, who fired on them under cover
of darkness and then fled. The Ashpole in
cident has increased the excitement at Will
mington, which was already near the dan
ger line. Groups of white men have been
on the street corners all day, eagerly
awaiting news from Lumberton and Ash

ing the Cubans not to surrender their arms
and to make resistance until the independ-
ence of the island is declared. Colonel Ger
vera is an intimate friend of General Par
rado. president of the Spanish evacuation
commission.
During the last two weeks several hun
dred Remington carbines and large quanti-
ties of ammunition have been sent from
Havana, it is presumed, by some of the
Spanish chiefs. The Spanish residents,
manufacturers. merchants and planters are
somewhat alarmed and criticize in very Sc
we're terms the behavior of some of the
Spanish chiefs, who, it is alleged. are act
ing suspiciously in many places and are
working in favor of Cuban independence,
advising the Cubans to persist in their rev.
olutionary attitude. Many Spanish residents
have written long letters to friends in Mad
rid in order that the home government may
be made acquainted with what is happening
in the island, and have requested that on
behalf of SPANS interests and those of the
Spanish residents in the island the evacua-
tion may be completed as soon as possible,
so as to avoid prolonging the existing dan
gerous condition of affairs.

THE SPANISH CABINET CRISIS.
Lieut.. Gen COrrea, Minister of War,
Threatens to Resign.

MADRID, Oct. 23.-Lieutenant General
Ccrrea, minister of war, threatens to
sign unless the government upholds the ac-
ton of General Chinchlla, captain general
of Madrid, who last week imprisoned Senior
Figuerea, editor of FL Nacional, for pub
fishing an article not previously submitted
to the censor, the Imprisonment being re-
sented in certain quarters as an infringe
ment Of Figuereas alleged immunity from
arrest as a member of the Chamber of
Deputies.
Senor Gamazo on Friday last rendered his
resignation as minister of public instruction
and public works as protest against the
arrest of Scnor Figuerea. His resignation,
taken with the threat of General Correa,
indicates a radical division of sentiment in
the Sagasta Ministry on the subject. The
Madrid newspapers, according TO a cable
dispatch of Friday, have addressed a COM
plant to the Supreme Court of Madrid
against General Chinchilla's action. The
captain general, on the appearance of the
uncensored article, ordered the suppression
of Ell Naconal, but the suspension order
was eventually annulled.
The promised manifesto Of Don Carlos,
the pretender, is expected shortly.

Back Salaries Demanded by n Clam
OrOus Mob at Havana

HAVANA, Oct. 23.--Another demonstra-
ton of the displeasure of the city officials
at the nonpayment of arrears of salary took
place yesterday, when about two hundred
entered the City Hail. a camorous mob and
demanded payment. The regular guard, be-
ing unable to dispense the crowd and fear
ing to take drastic measures, the civil gov
ernor, Senior De Castro, was advised of the
situation. He appeared on the scene adj
dressed the crowd and ordered immediate
dispersal under threat of loss of positions
in the municipal service. His energetic
stand had the desired effect. but unless
back salaries are paid there will be more
serious trouble.
The rainstorm of yesterday morning and
afternoon subsided towards night and to-
day the weather is cool and crisp The
northerly winds bring great relief and it is
felt that the end of the fever season in
Havana has been reached. Reports from
various quarters tell of heavy transforms
for the past ten or twelve days all over the
island. Bridges have been washed away,
cattle have been drowned and there has
been great damage to crops, to say moth
ing of the loss from retarded traffic of the
railway lines.
The Spanish authorities estimate the total
cost of evacuation will be about SIG 900.
Twenty-four vessels win be employed to
embark troops. of which six are hospital
ships. The French mail steamers Cheribon
and Notre Dame du Salut, which have just
arrived, have been chartered by the Spanish
Transatlantic Company as transports
A dispatch from Baez, province of Santa
Clara, says the Spaniards evacuated that
place on Oct. II.
Colonel Hecker and his staff will go on
Monday to the province of Pinar del Rio
to select camp sites. This afternoon Gen.
Wade and Lieutenant Colonel Clous visited
Colonel Leo and Colonel Liverman to talk
over the proposed sites for camps and
questions Of transportation and sanitation.
A committee Of leading citizens Of Matan-
zas visited the United States evacuation
commissioners this afternoon to complain
as to the distribution of relief sup
plies, which, according to their representa-
tions. do not reach those who need them.
General Wade promised a thorough investi-
cation.
During the last week or ten days there
has been great improvement in the health
OF Spanish soldiers. 1t is pointed out that
hospital cases for that period were so per
cent. less than previously.

LONDON, Oct. 24-The French yellow
book on Fashoda seems to Indicate an in
tention on the part of the French govern
ment to utilize the Marchand affair as a
means of raising the whole Egyptian ques-
tion. This impression is confirmed by the
comments of most of the Paris papers this
gravity of the situation revealed by The
yellow book, but the papers are unanimous
I'm declaring that 1t is impossible for Lord
Salisbury to consent to any negotiation un-
til Fashoda is evacuated. As. however, the
French foreign minister. NJ. Delcasse, with
equal firmness. declines to withdraw March
and without previous negotiations, the sit
uation has an ominious look.
The Times in its editorial says Lord Sails
bury has not replied to Baron De Courcel's
pretensions with the decision which might
have been hoped for. Baron De Courcel
sitter a long conference with NJ. Delcasse
left Paris for London yesterday. According
10 the Temps he had an important conver-
sation with Lord Salisbury before he left
London and will have another on returning
there Another dispatch from Paris says it
is rumored there that he is bringing to
London definite proposals for the evacua-
ton Of Fashoda on condition that France be
granted a Mile outlet on the river Bahr-el-
Gazal, one of the tributaries of the Nile,
entering it about $50 miles southwest of
