E. b. Bunnell in New York to Fight the

Mr.. Van Buren, Of the Hyperion the

Mr. G. B. Bunnell, who is in New York
seeking to secure some rights for New
Haven playgoers from the syndicate, in
which he says: at is just as we talked.
Next week will be the great battle be-
tween the syndicate and the managers
in New York. You can close the house
tor a week at least. must be on deck
with them and fight for the rights of
the New Haven circuit. We may have
luck to make the season last that much
later in the spring with AL attractions,
which will largely depend upon the
activity of the confederation of mem
bers sof the New England circuit Will
wire as soon as anything important oc-
ours.
New Haven is considered by Propri-
etor Bunnell to be the keystone of the
New England circuit and certainly we
should receive better treatment said
Manager Van Buren, Saturday night.
But just at present the New York
and Chicago circuit is combining
against the east and securing the first
class attractions. But this will not
continue if the eastern managers can
help it. Mr.. Bunnell will hold an i'm
portant conference on Monday and see
what can be done. Here we must let
all our people go and close the Hype-
rion all the coming week and right in
the busiest part of the year. AS Mr..
Bunnell writes, Next week will be the
great battle I shall hear very soon
from Mr.. Bunnell and will keep the pub
lie posted. We are going to make
fight for New Haven and secure our
just rights, if possible"

Remember THE Maine
An Effort Will Be Made to Find Out
Who Touched Off the Mine.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-The mys-
terry of who blew up the Maine may be
solved before the Spanish get out OF
Cuba. President Mckinley entertalns
the hope that while tt 9 American
members of the Cuban military COM
mission are arranging terms for the
evacuation Of Havana they may also
be able to put together in one connect
ed whole. different bits of evidence
gathered while the court of inquiry
was at work.
Should the commissioners be able to
do that which is expected of them,
this will make a chain of circumstan-
tial evidence strong enough to war
rant action, and the United States will
demand the arrest and detention of
persons upon whom suspicion rests.
Blanco's repeated efforts to resign
and get out of Cuba before the COM
missioners meet, and his determined
refusal to serve as a member OF the
commission, all lend credence to the
report that Blanco fears the truth may
come out and he wants to be safely out
of Havana before the great expose.

LUZON ONLY
Will Likely Be Taken For The Pres
ent.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 24.-Diplomats
generally seem to feel that Ssgasta
was outgeneraled on the terms of the
protocol. The situation is such that
the United States is bound to
Acquire the island of Luzon, at least.
To hold Luzon alone is the result of
q compromise the president is said to
have found it necessary to make with
the senate. Personally, the president
is fully cognizant of the wide
spread popular demand for the re-
tention of the whole group, but has
good reason to believe that in order to
insure the easy running of the treaty
in the senate he will be forced to COM
promise with that body on the question
by taking Luzon only, taking, as it
were, q middle ground.
The opposition to acquiring all the
Philippine group is not confined by
any means to the democrats. Several
influential republica ns have advised
the president to modify his demands so
as to include only the single island,
but doubtless some of these took that
stand not from personal motives, but
rather from belief that that policy
was the best one to pursue on account
of the positive opposition likely to
develop in the senate.

BOARD OF INQUIRY
Will Consider All Questions Connect
ed With The Conduct OF the War.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-There has
been decided change of opinion in
Washington regarding military in
quiry into the conduct of the war.
When it was irst mentioned admins
tration men shrugged their shoulders
and said that it would never do, as an
investigation, nor matter whether or
not it found anything to investigate,
would only result in a loss of prestige
to the administration.
Now the administration itself will
set on foot an Investigation, preferring
that to any inquiry congress might In
stitute. just what official was the
originator of this plan is not clear, but
one thing is certain, and that is that it
has warm support in the cabinet.
The men who are recommending
this investigation say that a properly
conducted military inquiry will reveal
the men who are responsible for the
Santiago blunders and the mistakes OF
the quartermaster's department.. Sup
porters of an investigation further say
th at the board of inquiry would make
q report which would be of great
value by causing military legislation
along much needed lines.
Secretary Alger, in his letter to
Cbauncey Depew, says that most of the
trouble was on account Of the difficulty
of mobiliziug a large army in so short
time under the present system.
Those who want the investigation say
Alger will be the star witness, and if
he could show that anything was wrong
with the military system it would be a
matter for congress to consider and act
upon.
The Philadelphis Press, which has
Charles Emory Smith. cabinet minis
ter, for editor, in an editorial this
morning demands an investigation OF
the war. In conclusion it says: "a

YELLOW Fever
Threatens East Texas.

SAN ANTONIO, Aug. 24.-Great ex-
citement prevails along the Mexican
border over yellow fever. The deten-
tion camps at Eagle Pass and Laredo
are rapidly filing up. The former
now contains 346 persons. The latest
arrivals are eight American travelling
men who were taken from the train
which was preparing to leave this
morning. They had all been at Tam
pico within the last fortnight.
The authentic report places the num-
ber of fever cases at Tampico at 900
and it is said the disease was introduc-
ed by the Spanish steamer Fatima
while running the blockade between
Tampico, Batabanos and Sagua La
Grande during the year.

The Southern Pacific Late,

The Southern Pacific is still late.
The train which was due here yester-
day at LBS p. m. has not arrived yet.
There was quite q serious washout on
the line near Gila Bend and
then there was a report out, but not
confirmed, that the Southern Pacific
train which pulled out of here last af-
ternoon for the west is in the ditch,
from another washOut, and that the
east bound train is now being held by
the one which is in the ditch. No one
was reported hurt in the accident.
There has now been no mail from
the Pacific coast for the last two days
and there is no telling at the present
time when the train will arrive. The
8. p. which came in today was made up
at Yuma and was very light, as there
were not more than dozen passengers
on the whole train.
