Governor, whom DR.. Abbott did

him for the position BELIEVING he

He therefore has undertaken to
conduct himself as Commissioner
as an honest man, according to
the dictates of his own consci-
ence. He refused to be the SER

AGUINALDO'S VICTORY
DRIVES THE ENEMY BACK TO
THE CITADEL
The Spanish Make Desperate Charge
but Cannot Stand the Steady Fire
Of the Insurgents

LONDON, July IA dispatch to the Daily
Telegraph, dated Manila, Tuesday, June 2S,
via Hong Kong, says:
The non-arrival of the American troops
had previously disappointed Admiral Dew
ey, but the Americans still count on cele-
brating the Fourth of July in Manila. 1t

regard his attitude as unfriendly. A wholly
improved feeling now exists. The Ameri-
can officers express confidence In their
ability to dispose of any ships Spain can
now send, but in view of the alleged
strength of Admiral Camara's squadron,
the wish is expressed that the Americans
had at least one battleship.
Last Thursday night the first notable at
tempt was made to drive the insurgents
from their advanced positions, instead of
calmly awaiting Aguinaldo's onslaught.
The attempt for time looked as though
II would be rewarded with success. The
Spanish numbered 1900. They made a de-
termined attack on the insurgents at Ma
late. The latter met them with will
directed fire, but the Spaniards were REIN
forced and the insurgents began to fall
back. Thus encouraged, the Spaniards
pressed forward but at the critical moment
the insurgents made spirited rally and
poured such steady fire into the Spanish
ranks that the latter were compelled to re-
treat, and failed to summon up courage
enough to resume the attack

THE FOX OF THE DEEP
How Semmes Gave Wilkes the Slip
in 1868

The chase after Admiral Cervera by the
fleets of Sampson and Schley recalls the
chase after the, Alabama in 1868, when she
had struck Galveston and destroyed thu
Hatteras. Commodore II. H. Bell, who
was commanding off Galveston, saw the
Hatteras sink, and sent dispatch boat
to Farragut. Then he sent the Brooklyn
after Semmes, but she proved too slow,
as also did a vessel he sent after the Ala
bama. The navy department sent the
Vanderbilt, with all speed, to Porto Rico.
The keystone State skirted the southern
coast of Cuba and reported that the Ala
bama had put in at Cienfuegos.
The department promptly ordered the
Vanderbilt to round Cape Maysi and skirt
the southern coast. Captain Wilkes met
the Vanderbilt midway between Cienfue-
COS and Santiago. Then Wilkes sent the
Vanderbilt to find the keystone State.
Then somebody told him that the Ala
bama was at Porto Rico.
The Vanderbilt found the keystone
State at, Cienfuegos, and the two stopped
at Key West for coal, and finallylreached
Porto Rico, where they found Captain
Wilkes furious. He had learned that the
Alabama had put in at Martinique, dis
charged her prisoners, and, after filling
up with COAL had peacefully called away
for the Azores. Cervera may be cunning,
but he in no sense compares with Semmes,
who was the "fox Of the deep" In his day.

ZANGWILL ON THE WAR
The English Author Holds the Century
Responsible

I, Zangwill went over to Paris fort
night ago, partly, as he expressed 1t, to
see the salon and partly to avoid the
academy exhibitionlin London. French
editor asked what he though of the war?
Was there not some sort of an American
syndicate or money-making affair at the
bottom OF it? "Most assuredly," replied
Mr.. Zangwill, "the war has been gotten
up entirely by and in the interests of the
Century company - Napoleon, Lincoln,
the Civil war and even poor Washington
having been exhausted as fields Of copy.
There was nothing else to be done. Stop
ping the Century could not be contem-
plated for an instant, and so, reluctantly,
the dogs of war were let loose. So much
better for the painters and illustrators,
particularly the latter. They should go
to the seat of war and practice upon the
style of work that is destined to be in
great demand in the immediate future.
The Century company will take all they
can turn out!"
Upon which the Partisan editor gravely
comments as follows: "Mr Zangwill Is
undoubtedly right and there is another
consideration which suggests itself very
obviously: young painters and artists in
general are almost tired of the hackneyed
advice to get blood into their work. Now
Is their chance, for what better opportu-
nifty to obey the making could occur? If
the newspaper and other prophets are not
in the wrong, there will be every facility
in this direction open to them.-New York

Riches Near a Graveyard

]. w. Morgan, d. E. Bourne and others
have made quite rich strike at their Ju-
biee mine out near the Chinese graveyard.
The main shaft is down that 100 feet, and in
drifting on the ledge at that depth the
strike was made. Some Of the rock on ex-
hibition at Mayor Morgan's store is hang
ing together with gold. This mine was
worked many years ago, when some very
rich rock was taken out. For many years
past the property has lain idle. About a
year ago 1t was purchased by Messrs Nor
gan, Bourne ct AL. who let a contract at
that time and had new shaft sunk to a
depth of so feet on the vein. Since the COM
pletion of the contract very little had been
done on the claim until about six weeks
ago, when a steam hoist was erected and
the shaft sunk to its present depth. They
have good, strong ledge in slate forma-
ton, and there is every indication that the
Jubilee will be a dividend payer from now
on,-Placer Herald.

THE ST. PAUL IS SAFE
DETAILS OF HER BATTLE WITH
THE TERROR
Spanish Thought the Vessel Was the
st. Louis and Expected Easy
Prey-The Terror Sunk

NEW YORK, July 2.-The St. Paul ar
rived in port last night and anchored, off
Tompknsville. She left Mole St. Nicholas
early last Tuesday, and has come here for
coal, ammunition and stores and also to
have some slight repairs to her starboard
engine.
Captain Sigsbee and the officers were alb
solutely inaccessible to press representa-
tives. Considerable Information was OBJ
tained nevertheless, from copy Of the st.
Paups war budget, the oracle of the ship,
which was obtained. The st. Paul's great
exploit on her last trip was the disabling
of the Spanish torpedo boat Terror off the
harbor of San Juan, Porto Rico, and being
regarded so by the crew, the account of 1t
occupies the first place on the first page.
When the cruiser Isabella III. came out of
the harbor of San Juan at about noon
June 22d, covering the Terror, which was
with her. from sight the Spaniard's thought
it was the st. Louis, which had been there
a short time before, and was known to have
a small armament and not the st. Paul
which was going TO be met. In the eNpecta-
ton of seeing fine prize brought into port
the Spaniards gathered in great crowds
along the harbor wall to see it. The en-
gagement lasted a Mttle over half an hour
during which the 81. Paul fired about nine
teen shots, three of them hitting the Terror
smashing one of her engines, killing the
chief engineer and another man, taking of
the legs of a third man and wounding five
others.
So badly was the Terror injured that
small vessels were dashed to her sides to
prevent her from sinking while tugboat
toXed her in.

Designating the Troops

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1-Majo Cen

designated the troops to go on the next ex-
petition to Manila. 1t is known, however,
that Major-General Merritt is especially
anxious that the First New York volun-
teers should be dispatched speedily, and
they will probably have place in the next

Point were called out today to fight grass
fires. The flames at Lime Point approach
ed dangerously near the tents and maya

At about l:3O the bugle alarm of fire was

q short distance northeast of the camp,
where the grass was in blaze which was
rapidly nearing the Notifications. The

threatened the powder magazine and the
camp of the troops. 1t was not got under
control until all the dry grass had been
consumed. About 800 acres were burned
over. The fire at the Preside was dis

California Quicksilver

California is the sole producer of quick
silver in commercial quantities in this
country. 1t is one of the very few Ameri-
can metal products whose price Is governed
by European production, with the addi-
tional anomaly that there Is no direct do
nestle competition, as the product of the
Spanish quicksilver mines is sold in Europe
and the east, scarcely any Spanish quick
silver being imported to the United States.
In the past few months the price has ma

war than to the peculiar circumstances OF
