The telegraph dispatches yesterday
announced hal the area included in the

900 square miles. As the total area OF
the island of Cuba is only 43. 900 square

incorrect. The actual area Of tho tract
surrendered is $500 square miles.

CONFIDENCE GAME.


An old mar who was n passenger on
No. 3 this morning. en- route from Ord,
Neb., to Oregon City, Ore, was film
TANNED out of $25 by a couple of con-
tidence men at Cheyenne while the
train was at that place. One of the
bunco men engaged the old man in
conversation and finally induced him
to part with the sum on being shown
a check for a large amount which the
slick stranger said he could get cashed
on arriving at his destination. which,
for a wonder ca happened to be the
same place for which the old man was
bound. Less than a minute after the
money had been transferred. confidence
man No. . put in an appearance and
told his partner that his baggage had
been smashed by the train baggage
man. OF course the two strangers had
to investigate this. and the old man has
seen nothing Of them nor his money
since.

FOOD OR MORE FIGHTING.
Armed Insurgents Ready TO Enforce
Landing of Supplies.


Havana, Sept 19-There was no ses-
sion of the American Commission yester-
day. Conditions persuade the Americans
that more speedy action is necessary
than was at first contemplated.
The Conal, which sailed on Friday, is
still at Key West awaiting, it is said, the
Commissions order to return, which will
be given when the Spanish reply is re-
ceived to petition for the free unload
ing of the steamship sent by the Ameri-
cans Saturday. A reply on the Comal
question is expected today or tomorrow.
The answer cannot come too soon. 1t
was the food problem that caused bad
feeling between the United States and
Spain before the war. 1t is the food prob
lem now that is bringing nearer and
nearer a serious crisis.
The insurgent Cubans have thus far OBJ
served the suspension of hostilities. but
the insurgents, armed they are still.
cannot be left to starve many days lon
ger, il peace is to be preserved in the ISL
and
To the pangs of hunger from which
they are suffering, aggravation is added
by the knowledge that the Comal, laden
with a cargo of supplies, is not allowed
TO land il.
Some persons here say that the Ameri-
cans insist on the sole supervision of the
unloading of the Comal and the distrib-
uting of her cargo. They express the be-
lief that the comaTs cargo is smaller
than a million rations. 1t is stated that
the objection 10 the cargo passing the
custom house is based on the fear of the
detection of deficit.
The Americans sent the first evacuation
propositions to the Spaniards last Mon
day.
Many members of the Commission party
and the Resolutes officers visited the
Hotel Trocha yesterday and regretted
the necessity of returning to the harbor
and the confinement of shipboard life. 1t
is expected, however that there will be
a general exodus of all the Commission
party from the Resolute to the Trocha
today.
Most of the baggage, desks and other
heavy impedimenta will probably be
transported from the Resolute by light
ers to the beach, only a few blocks dis
tant from the Trocha.

Overcome by the DlUnder That Made

Middleboro, Mass, Sept. l9.-Every
soul in this quiet town has talked him
self tired about the startling climax 10
Miss Grace Perkins disappearance.
The grave that opened for the daugh-

But, then, young Bourne is rich. and

Bourne is sincere in her belief that her
son is still single man
Contradicting this comes a signed state

mother. The statement is to the effect
that Charles Bourne and Grace Perkins

Steamer on Fire,

Baltimore, Sept. 1s.-The British steam
er Evelyn, Capt. Horner, arrived Satur-
day from Huelva, Spain, with a cargo
of sulphur pyrites, which caught fire
at work trying to subdue the fire, which
was kept under the matches until the ship
arrived in port. AS soon as the Evelyn
arrived the city fireboat Cataract went to
her assistance, and succeeded in putting
out the fire. which was confined to the
forward hold. The fumes from the fire
made IL necessary for the men in the
forecastle to seek sleeping quarters else
where. The damage to the cargo cannot
be estimated until IT is discharged.

Connecticut Democrats United.


New Haven, Conn, Sept 19.-The New
Haven delegates to the Democratic State
convention, to be held at Bridgeport on
Wednesday next, met yesterday for the
purpose of organization. and there were
few surprises, which, it is thought, will
have an important bearing on the State
convention. A bitter contest between the
gold and silver Democrats was anticipat-
ed, but none developed, and Alexander
Troup, who is chairman of the State COM
mittee, was chosen as New Haven's rep
resentative on the committee on resolu-
tions. A resolution to be presented to
the convention was adopted unanimously,
THAT the Connecticut Democrats in con-
vention assembled hereby reaffirm the
platform of principles adopted at the last
national Democratic convention in Chi
cago, July 9, 1896" Mr.. Troup also for
mally announced that he was not a can
didate for reelection as chairman of the
State central committee.

The wretched father lies sick in an

him this morning says that he believes

Polygamy.

The Ogden (Utah) Commonwealth
says that while it is true that polyg-
amy still exists in Utah it is never
theless dying out. 1t affirms what
has been doubted, that the church
no longer favors it and those Nor
mons who return to polygamous
connections do SO with more or less
secrecy. 1t thinks that the Mormon
people desire and really intend that
the practice of polygamy among
them shall cease, though minority
cling to it with firm domestic hero
ism, setting an example to malcon-
tent gentle husbands, who often find
a single wife one too many for their
powers of management and disci-
pline.
