STRANGE EVENTS AT SANTIAGO.
sCHLEY KNEW THE sPANIARDs
WERE COMING.
Informed Through Some Mysterious
Agency That Celvera Had De-
cided to Come Out.

New York. Nov. 26.-Rear Admiral
Schley was the guest of honor at a
banquet given tonight by the Lotus
club at their magnificent home on
F'ifthavenue. Seated at the board to
greet him We're gentlemen prominent
in the American Spanish war and well
known in professional and commercial
circles. The banquet room of the club
was richly decorated with cut flowers,
palms and ported plants, and imme-
diately behind the admirals chair were
draped the Stars and Stripes, with the
flag which the admiral brought back
from Santiago.
Seated at the guests table were Bish-
op Potter, Admiral Erben. Captain
Sigsbee, Chauneey M. Depew, Colonel
Robert G. Ingersoll, Rev Minott F.
Savage, Captain A. L. Mahan and Adj
miral Schley
When Admiral Schley arose to speak
he was accorded a tremendous ovation.
In the course of his remarks, the ad-
miral told of two strange incidents in
connection with the battle of July 8, off
Santiago. After stating that it had
been the intention of Admiral Cervera
to make his dash out of the harbor on

adjutant general says it was the pur-
pose of the department, on the arrival
of General Snyder's force, to recall as
many troops as were in Snyder's di-
vision. General Otis, however, in a
report from Manila, strongly opposed
the return of any of the troops now in
the islands, and the war department
governed itself accordingly.
WYOMING SENATORSHIP.
The Post publishes a long dispatch
from Cheyenne, saying that Senator
Clark's friends assert that he has at
the present time twenty of the twenty
five votes necessary to secure the eau
Gus nomination Ex-senator Clark S
friends claim that he will have the
united support of Laramie county, the
largest in the state. He has been a
persistent advocate of the gold stand
ard in his entire public career, and his
friends claim that he should be sent
back to the senate to emphasize the
fact that Wyoming has completely re-
nounced free silver ideas
Governor w. A. Richards is, perhaps,
next to Senator Clark, the strongest
candidate for the senatorship. He has
been one of the most successful and
substantial of the Republican party
leaders in the state. His home is in
the northern part of the state, and he
will have the support of the northern
counties. 1t was expected that Cover
nor Richards would be out of the fight,
as it has been reported that he is to
be offered the position of assistant COM
missioner of the general land office,
now filled by Congressman-elect Mon
dell; but he will undoubtedly be in the
senatorial race, and his candidacy is
looked upon with some degree of I'M
easiness by the other aspirants
The dispatch also enumerates Colo
mel Jay L. Torrey, John C. Davis, Otto
Gramm, c. w. Burdick and M. C.
Brown as possible candidates.

AGU1NALDo's PRISONERS.
Insurgent Explains Why Clericals
Cannot Be Released.

Cannot Be Released.
Manila, P. l., Nov. 26.-Aguinaldo, the
insurgent leader, has addressed a sec
ond communication to Major General
Otis, the American military command
err, on the subject of the Spanish Dris-
oners in the hands of the insurgents.
He has declined to release the clerf-
Gals and civilians, arguing that both
carried arms voluntarily against the
insurgents Aguinaldo then refers
General Otis to the local papers, pub
lished for the instruction, for tire
futable proof of his assertion that the
clericals were the most active and
vengeful agents in sacrificing the lives
and honor of innocent natives"
Continuing, Aguinaldo quotes the in
ternational rule of reprisa1 claiming
the right to detain the prisoners in the
hope of causing SPAN Ito lberate the
Filipinos and cease torturing and
shooting natives whose only crime has
been the love of liberty"
AS to his saying, In a former letter,
that international laws must recede be-
fore the just wishes of the people,
Aguinaldo asserts that he meant under
the existing circumstances recognized
laws must accede to the wishes of
those fighting for the recognition of the
bulk of said laws
The insurgent leader also maintains
his right to detain the prisoners until
the vatican recognizes the rights of the
Filipino clericals and civilians, or I'M
til they are exchanged.

Price, Utah, Nov. 26-J. T. Noonan
of Salt Lake today drove through here
5000 head of sheep for the Green River
range, where they will be kept until
spring, and then brought here and
sheared and later dipped at the corrals
at Cotton, better known as Pleasant
Valley Junction There has been a
general movement of sheep for the past
month for the Green River country,
where the range is said to be as good as
there is in Utah, but water is. scarcer
than ever known heretofore. Herders
are often compelled to drive their
flocks half a day to water The Rio
Grande Western is preparing to shear
$4,000 to 100000 head here in the spring,
and the greater portion of them will
come from UP and down the Green
river.
1. K. Strosmider, manager of the TAFT
Milling company at Chickashaw, L T.,
heard through The Herald that there is
an opening a. Price for a Touring mill
and as result entered into CORE
spondence with business men here to
see what could be done. Letters passed
and the result is that Mr.. TAFT will be
here on the 18th of December to look
the field over. He has been given to
understand that the business men and
property owners here will give him at
least $1,000 bonus, and it is believed
the field will prove an inviting one to
Mr.. Strosmider.
]. c. Weeter, the lumberman of Park
City and Price, has taken an active
part in inducing the mill man to come
to Utah. There are 10000 bushels of
wheat raised each year in Carbon
county, and no mill at which to grind
it. Outside counties, Grand, Emery
and Uintah, would probably furnish
10000 bushels more to a good mill here

BUTTE MAN MISSING.
May Have Perished In the Baldwin
Hotel Fire.


San Francisco Nov 26.-This morning
all threatening parts of the Baldwin hotel
which remain standing were toppled in
side the ruins. Thus the bodies already
buried were covered deeper and their re-
covery materially delayed.
The chief interest now centers in the
clearing away of the debris and the re-
covery of additional bodies. That there
are several yet uncovered no one seems
to question, but it may be several days
before any of them are reached and their
Identification will be almost impossible.
w. e. Webb of Butte, Mont. is now re-
ported as missing. Manager Lake of the
hotel still thinks that the fire started in
the theatre. and the theories that it was
caused either by an incendiary or by
careless cooks and walters find little
credence.
1t has been stated that D. w. Davis. a
Chicago drummer, had a room in the
Baldwin the night of the fire. Friends re-
port that he has not been seen since. but
the hotel people say there was no such
name on the register.
Real estate experts value the hotel site
at from 81, 2500Of to over 81, 100000. E. J.

ton to build a new hotel and business
block which will be thoroughly fire-proof

Washington, Nov 26.-Constructor
.Iobson arrived in Washington today
from Norfolk, and came direct to the
navy department. He has just re
turned from his trip on the Vulcan to
Cat island, the scene of the wreck of
the Maria Teresa. He brought with
him the report of Captain McCalla, who
was in charge of the expedition sent on
the Vulcan to endeavor to save the
vessel The report is merely an elab-
Grafton of the history of the journey
and it's results, already contained in
the telegraphic report to the depart
ment, and, where it touches upon the
condition of the Teresa, makes the
wreck appear even more hopeless than
Captain McCalla's telegram; and this
statement was strongly reinforced by
Constructor Hobson's verbal report to
Acting Secretary Allen today.
Captain McCalla resumes his duties
as captain of the Norfolk navy yard.
Constructor Hobson goes to Annapolis
to take up the direction of his course
in naval architecture. He was DESTROYS
of returning to Santiago and endeavor-
ing to raise the Colon, but the depart
ment had made other arrangements
that made this impracticable.

To THE EDITOR OF The JOURNAL. To our
friend and fellow townsman,A A. F. Matthews,
we wish to tender our warmest thanks, not
only for the valuable information given in
his article published in The Journal of re-

people should familiarize themselves more
than is the usual custom regarding our an
cestry and the early settlers of the town of
Searsport, We have gathered in our ohser-
walton, and from conversations with num-
Der of our townsmen who were living prior
to the year 1858, some Information that NAV
be OF interest to your readers, particularly
to the natives of Searsport The article re-
lating to Ephraim Stimson, recalled to
mind an incident of my boyhood days. In
the summer of 1858 the writer was employ
ed on the farm of Franklin Houston, which
farm was formerly included in the tract of
land settled upon and owned by his ances-
tor, Samuel Houston. The adventure of
Ephram Stimson and the shooting of Arm
strong took place directly in front Of the
Houston house. in the field on the lower
side Of the road, az | was informed bv Mr..
Houston himself. His description of 7 the
affair was vivid that it made lasting
impression upon my young mind. The
place where Armstrong was buried Mr.. II
kept marked, as it was near the water. aud
from his account of it, it certainly was
lively affair for a few minutes We hope
friend Mathews will continue his contribu-
tions to The Journal, for we consider it like
food to the hungry man, which we devour
with the utmost relish and satisfaction.
