A SCHOONER GOES ASHORE.
of Peril-They Were Rescued, None
Being Seriously Injured.

ALPENA, Mich, Oct 19.-The crew
of six men aboard the schooner Her
shell, ashore at Sulphur island reef,
are in the greatest peril. The captain
escaped to shore Tuesday afternoon in
the yawl boat. The line parted to the
yawl boat before the rest of the crew
could get into it. The wind is blow
ing so miles an hour and great seas are
rolling over the vessel. The tug Frank
W. left Tuesday afternoon for the res
cue of the men. The vessel is owned
and sailed by Capt. Thomas Clark, OF
Chicago, and the crew hail from that
port.
The crew was rescued late Tuesday
evening, none of the men being seri'
ously in iured.

THEY FOUGHT ON THE ROOF.
The Contestants Rolled Off and Fell Fifty
Feet to the Grouud-BOth Terribly
Injured and Died Soon After.

BosToN, Oct. 1.-TWO roofers, Pat
rick Rosch, 45 years old, and John
Crice, so, while employed in repairing
the roof of four story house on Hud-
son street, became engaged in a quar-
rel Tuesday afternoon and people be-
low saw them struggling on the roof.
The men drew gradually near the edge
and then to the horror of the
spectators, the two rolled over and
fell so feet to the ground. Both were
terribly injured and died a few hours
later at the Emergency hospital while
the surgeons were working over them.
The cause of the quarrel is unknown,
but it is supposed it resulted from a
little dispute about the work.

THEY PLAN TO END STRIKE.
The Virden Coal Company May Appeal to
Courts-A Federal Receive~ship Pro-
posed BY the Company.

VIRDEN, ILL.,, Oct. 9O.-As near as can
be learned here it is the intention of
the Chicago-Virden Coal Co. to let the
deplorable conditions now existing
here be adjusted in the courts. 1t
was ascertained Wednesday that
plans are now being made which will
bring about this result. The plan
contemplates a federal receiver
ship. Whether this can be brought
about is questioned. Such receiver
ship has proved the solution of other
strikes, but conditions are different in
this case, and it is doubted by some
whether a federal court can be found
which will admit that it has jurisdic-
ton over the ease.

NEWS FROM SPANISH SOURCE
Reported Engagement Between Philippine
Insurgents and Americans-Thers
Were Losses on Both Sides.

LONDON, Oct. 20-The Madrid corre-
spondent of the Times says: Capt.
Aunon, the minister of marine, has re-
ceived a dispatch from Manila an
nouncing naval engagement between
the Americans and the rebels, in con-
sequence of Adm. Dewey forbidding
the latter to fly the rebel flag from
their ships. The dispatch adds that
there were losses on both sides, but
that the Americans captured the rebel
ships.

stated but it is supposed to have been

WASHINGTON, Oct. 90. AS far as
could be ascertained no information
regarding the reported naval engage

Manila, made any reference to it in
any communications he may have
made to the war department.

RICANS.
BY Our Acquisition of the Island $780,
900 Inhabitants Lose Citizenship.
1t Has Been Usual to Provide for Bodily
Transfer of People Conditioned
in the Treaty of Peace Which
Terminates q War

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.-In view of the
fact that at noon Tuesday. with the
acquisition of the island of Porto Rico
by the United States, about 500, 900 in
habitants of that island lost their
Spanish citizenship, the question as to
what shall become of these people po-
litically becomes Of Importance. Mad
rid advices report that the leading cit
liens in Porto Rico have already taken
steps to become naturalized as United
States citizens. This is an error, for
the existing law provides no way in
which this change of citizenship can
be effected by the residents of the is
land There is no United States court
there before which a declaration of in
tention can be fled, and in fact no
machinery at all which can be put in
motion to change citizenship.
Inquiry into this subject at the state
department discloses the fact that it
has been usual to provide for a bodily
transfer of the citizenship of people
conditioned as those in Porto Rico in
the treaty of peace which terminates a
war. 1t may be prudent for the COM
mission at Paris to avoid any refer
ence to Porto Rico again, in which
case congress will be called upon by
the president to confer citizenship up
on the Porto Ricans in the
same act as that which must
be passed to provide a stable
form of government for the is
land. Should either OF these
courses be found impracticabls, how
ever, it is said at the department that
international law in its operation
would confer American citizenship
upon these Porto Ricans, the general
principal being that where a treaty of
cession is silent upon the subject of
citizenship changes with the soil. In
the case of the acquisition of New
| Mexico, the residents of the territory
were given American citizenship by
specific provision of the treaty.

THEY DID NOT SHAKE HANDS
Gen. Shafter Did Not See or Absolutely IS-

Miles at the Chicago Jubilee.

CHICAGO, Oct. 0.-Gen. Shafter either
did not see Gen. Miles extended hand
when the two men met on the review
ing stand Wednesday, or he absolutely
ignored it. At any rate, the two
generals did not shake hands. When
Gen. Miles entered the review
ing stand and approached the
presidents box the chief execu-
tive gave him simple nod of
recognition. When Gen. Shafter came
up the president arose from his chair
and grasped the hand of the command
er of the army of invasion warmly and
shook it effusively. These incidents
took place in the presence of fully
10000 people, and they were the talk
of the city Wednesday night.
