To Occupy Hawaii

Washington, June 16.-Mu
jor General M. G. Butler, COM
manding the First division of
the Second corps, was quoted
today as saying that his COM
mand is to occupy the Sand
wich islands in the event of
their seizure by the govern
ment.
When questioned npon th9
matter. he refused to either al
firm or deny the story. All
that he would say was that if
Hawaii should be seized he did
not see how 1t could be held ex-
cept by an army of occupation,
and" 3" he added, ~ should
not be displeased to command
that expedition" He would
not say whether or not he had
an understanding with the
president touching the situa-
ton.

To Have N Big Lake.

Denison, Tex, June 16-Gov-

CT the Chickasaw nation are ar
ranging for the building of a
dam across Pennington creek
at Tishomingo for the purpose
of making r a~big lake and fur
FISHING water power to.p1t in u
gin and milling machinery. Ii
is estimated that by putting in
a granite dam twenty feet high
a Lake eight miles long will be
formed. which will be valuable
to stock with fish aud for the
pleasure as we'll as for water
power. The dam across this
creek. which never runs dry,
will afford water power to run
a great deal of machinery, and
in the end may be utilized to
furnish a small electric light
plant for Tishomingo, as well
as, a waterworks system. The
promoters of the enterprise are
working to get it under way at
once so as to be ready for fall

During the summer of 1891, Mr.
Chas. Z. Johnson, q well known st.
torney of Louisville, KY, had a very
severe attack of summer complaint.
Quite a number of different remedies
were tried, but failed to afford any
relief. A friend who knew what was
needed procured him a bottle of
Ohamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy, which quickly
cured him and he thinks, saved his
life. He says that there has not been
day since that time that he has not
had this remedy in his household.
He speaks of it in the highest praise
and takes much pleasure in recon-
mending it whenever an opportunity
is offered. For sale by 7. N Coleman

One of the Grotesque Features Of
the Campaign in
Porto Rico

Ponce. Porto Rico. Aug. 6-(via D. W.
l.. Aug. 1.-THE grotesqueness Of the
Porto Rican campaign cannot be illus
trated better than by mentioning an in
cident which has happened to New
York Herald correspondent. T. T. NIL
lard. Mr.. Willard actually stumbled inc
the Spanish lines at CO2mO.
He had been deserted for some reason
by his Porto Rican escort, and had been
left alone wandering While endeavOring
to reach Il point of safety he fell into the
Spanish outDOsts. He was surrounded
by officers and men of the enemy. AZ
first Mr. Willard believed he had been
made a prisoner, but the peaceful atti-
tude of the soldiers assured him that he
was not to be dealt with in drastic
manner.
After a parley of a few moments. TO
Mr.. Millard's great surprise, the Spanish
officers agreed to surrender The visitor
managed to conceal his establishment at
the turn of affairs, and began negOtiatin
The Spanish officers agreed TO retire th"
next day and permit the American troops
to advance.
When the New York Herald CORE
spondent reported that the Spaniards
were destroying a bridge, but would sur
render the town, Gen. Miles declined 20
take a serious view of the matter. He
said he would not allow an enga cement

FAST MAIL WRECKED,
Three of the Engine Crew Killed
Several Mail Clerks Are
Injured.

Canton Mass. Aug 8.-Three men
were killed and number of mail clerks
were severely injured at Canton Junction
Oh the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford railroad today by an express mail
special from New York to Boston jump
ing the tracks. The dead are:
JAMES SHELDON, engineer
G. K. KNOWLTON, fireman.
JAMES SCHUFELDT, engineer, riding
in the cab.
The injured are:
Mail Clerks Joseph Iillea, Peter Carroll,
L. H. Butterfeld. T. y. Lincoln, c. A.
Buckland w. A. Seymour, L. E. Denny.
There were fourteen mail clerks on the
train, and Schufeldt, who was riding in
the cab. was the engineer Of a gravel
train and was on his way to work at
Mansfield. Sheldon and knowlton lived
at Providence. Schufeldt's home was at
Mansfield, Mass.
The accident was caused by a mis-
placed switch. The special was running
at high speed on q down grade. At the
bottom of the slope the switch at a sid

cars were off the track. The engine and
forward car were turned over on their

TO RETIRE CAPT. CLARK.
Health of the Gallant Captain of the
Oregon Has Failed.

Washington, D. c., Aug 6.-Capt
Charles E. Clark, commanding the battle
ship Oregon. has been condemned by a
board of medical survey and will be sent
home from Guantanamo, Cuba, on the
next vessel that starts north. This an
nouncement was cabled to the navy de-
partment by Admiral Sampson, and al
though not wholly unexpected, it was a
great shock to the naval administration.
For some days it had been known that
the strain Of Oyerwork incidental to the
memorable voyage of his peerless ship
around Cape Horn and the arduous tour
Of watch duty off Santiago, eliminating
in the magnificent dash past the other
battleships when Admiral Cervera ct
tempted to escape, had seriously affected
Capt. Clark's physical strength and that
he was Old the verge of breaking down.
Only few weeks ago his responsibilities
were augmented by the selection of the
Oregon as Commodore Watson's flagship
and orders were issued appointing Capt
clark chief of staff. The additional du-
ties imposed by this assignment were of
an eXhausting, worrying character, and
they told quickly upon him.

HOLDING GUAYAMA.
Another Step Toward the Reduce
ton of Porto RiCo-Har-
aSSed by Shells.

Off Guayama, Porto Rico, Aug. g.
Via st. Thomas, D. w. l., Aug S.)-The
Fourth Ohio and Third Illinois regiments
are holding Guayama, which they captured
in lively battle on Friday. Yesterday
two shells from the enemy's artillery, post
ed III the hills beyond the town, dropped
near q detachment of American soldiers
but did no harm. This policy of harass-
ing the troops seems to be settled one
on the part Of the Spaniards hereabouts.
Private Herman Huffman of Co. X Third
artillery, was shot from ambush on the
picket line at Arroyo yesterday and will
die.
The capture of Guayama Friday was
marked by stiff fighting, in which Col.
Bennitt's boys of the Third Illinois and
the Fourth Ohio regiment under Col. Colt
won hOnOrs by their steadiness and obedi-
ence to orders. The latter regiment had two
ue and worried the Spaniards very per-
ceptbly when they got to work The
enemy began the attack three miles from
Arroyo, hiring from ambush. Our boys
were as cool as veterans, and after two
hours of sharp work sent the Spaniards
flying to the hills. The American troops
were armed with Krag-J orgensen rifles
and fired smOkeless powder, while the
Spaniards had inferior weapons instead
of the regulation Mausers There were
about 400 Spanish soldiers engaged in the
attack, and they did the best they could,
being aided by the strong position which
they held. None of the Illinois men was
hurt, but four men of the Fourth Ohio
received wounds. One Spaniard was
killed and number were wounded.
Gen. Haines commanded the troops in
Fridays skirmish. His brigade now oc-
cupies Guayama. The Americans have
turned the municipal cockpit into a hospi-
tai. The health of the troops is good
Gen. Haines' brigade is to move forward
promptly. Peace negotiations are It de-
laying the progress of this vigorous cam
pagn.
Gen. Brooke is unloading supplies from
transports at Arroyo and preparations are
under way for an early advance toward
Cayey.
No warships have been on blockade
duty before San Juan for two days ow-
ing to their being detailed for other duty
1t is expected that the blockade will be
resumed on Monday and that arrange
ments will be made preparatory to a pos
Sible bOmbardment.
