Boston, Dec. 3O.-Dan DAILY, the
popular comedian. and one OF the lead
ing lights in the belle of New York;
company, received probably fatal in
jury at the Park theater last night. Al
the close of the first act DAILY makes
flying entry" sliding in on an in
clined wire. In some way either the
wire or handle broke, DAILY falling to
the stage, striking on the shoulders
and back Of the head.
Two physicians were summoned
from the audience, and worked over
him half an hour, but could not bring
him back to consciousness. He was
then sent to the Massachusetts, general
hospital, and at an early hour he was
still unconscious, the physicians believ-
ing he was suffering from conclusion OF
the brain.

FOOLHARDY PROJECT.
Captain w. c. Oledrive, of Boston, to
Walk Across the Atlantic.

Captain w. G. Oledrive, of Boston, to
Walk Across the Atlantic.
Chicago, Dec. ga special to the
Times Herald from New York says:
Captain w. G. Oledrive, of Boston, has
planned to walk across the Atlantic
ocean. He will begin his journey July
and will be accompanied by Captain
w. M. Andrews, famous by reason Of
his voyage across the Atlantic in a
small boat. 1t is nothing new for Cap
tain Oledrive to promenade the waves.
That has been his pleasure and profit
these ten years. Captain Andrews,
who is to be the companion of the wa
ter pedestrian, will journey in brand.
new 14-foot small boat and in this
merely repeats feat performed in 1878
and again in 1892. Captain Andrews
is the man who has brought about the
whole affair. Here is his own state
ment:
Incredible as it may seem, next
year we are really going to walk and
sail down Boston harbor, out onto the
ocean and over to Havre, France,
through the great bore of the river
Seinesand up to Paris. to be there to at
tend the exposition of 1900 in our new
seagoing shoes and the smallest, fastest
and best boat that ever crossed the At
lantic ocean, the Phantom ship. Every
vessel we speak on the ocean will re-
port one of us walking and sometimes
towing the boat in calm weather.
''The seagoing shoes of MI. Oledrive
are the most wonderful part OF the
whole affair. They are pair OF cedar
boxes five feet long with fms on the
bottom and sides. They are very light
and capable of sustaining 14O pounds.
and as Oledrive weighs only 1870 pounds
they are as good to him as steamers
deck.''

SENSATION AT THE CAPITAL.
SPANS Wrath Over woodford,s Note
Uncalled for.

Washington. Dec. 80. - Officials
here are somewhat surprised at the ex-
hibition of feeling at Madrid over the
latest note of Minister Woodford de-
livered to the Spanish foreign Office the
day before Christmas. While the note
itself will not be made public at pre-
sent, it IS said that there is no reason
whatever why it should be withheld,
save the fact that preceding steps in
the negotiations have not yet seen the
light of newspapers and it is desirable
when publications. made to preserve a
complete chain of events in their nat
ural order. Possibly the correspond
ence will be shortly called for by con-
gress, in which case it is not likely to
be withheld on the ground of public
policy.
The last note presented by Minister
Woodford was in answer to the Spanish
note, called forth by Woodford's very
first note upon his arrival at Madrid.
In his initial note the United States
minister pointed out the interest of his
country in the early termination of the
present struggle in Cuba and asked
when such conclusion could be expect
ed. The Spanish government in its
reply acknowledged our interest in the
matter, but suggested after stating what
it intended to do to ameliorate the con-
ditions in Cuba, that the United States
could best exercise its good offices by
or &1thncforirD To this Mood.
ford responded with his note of last
week. 1t is said to be purely argu-
mentative statement of the position
taken by the United States, and the
facts set forth are those SO strongly
drawn in the presidents message to
congress, of which it was supposed the
Spanish public had been fully advised
through newspapers.
The most forcible statement in the
note is based upon facts collected and
published recently by the United
States treasury department. exhibiting
the great expense to which the United
States had been put by reason of it's
efforts to patrol the enormous coast line
in pursuit of few tilibustering expedi-
lions and the remarkable success of gov
eminent officials in stopping these ex-
petitions as contrasted with the feeble
efforts of the Spanish authorities to
maintain patrol around the island of
Cuba. All these facts were included
in Woodford's note. and while he put
them in his own language in presenting
them to the Spanish foreign Office, it
is said the statements concern only the
events which have already been touched
upon.

PENSION OFFICE ORDER.
It's Design Is to Expedite Disposition
of Pending Claims.

It's Design Is to Expedite Disposition
of Pending Claims.
Washington, Dec. ga new or
der, the enforcement Of which it is be-
lieved will expedite the disposition OF
pension claims now pending has been
issued by Commissioner Evans. It is
as follows:
thereafter claims for increase of
pensions will not be considered within
IL months from the last action, allow
ance or rejection"
'sThe necessity of the new order,
said an official today, grows largely
out of calls made on the Office for state
ment of the status of pending cases
by means of congress. These calls have
been answered to the exclusion OF
other claims pending, which. it is said,
have been taken up in their order.
It is only fair to these cases which have
not had any consideration that they
should be taken up as promptly as pos
sible.

The Partition of China.

Washington, Dec. 31.-The rapid
movement of events in the far East con-
tinues to be an absorbing topic in
diplomatic circles here. particularly at
the embassies and legations Of the pow
ers which are aligning for an apparent
struggle for Chinese territory. There
IS no further talk of the United States
as possible factor in the contest, as
the recent understanding at cabinet
meeting is accepted as removing this
government from the field of contro-
versy.
At the same time an eminent author
ity on international affairs said today
that a situation might develop when
the United States would be called upon
to 90 much further than protect Amer
lean interests at the treaty ports In
China. This situation would come, he
said. if the scramble for Chinese terri
tory went to the extent OF the extinc-
ton of China and the complete absorb
ton of the old empire by foreign ma
tons. Such was the apparent drift OF
the present movement, he said, and II
it became a reality. condition would
arise similar to the termination OF the
government of Poland. Poland had
established precedent in international
affairs, he said, and following that
precedent, if China was to be absorbed,
It was a question of which the United
States. in common with all the nations,
must take cognizance. Until this final
movement occurred, however, it was
plain that the United States had no IN
terest in the fencing between the Euro
pean nations and Japan for coallng sta
tions and ports on the Asiatic coast.
