ships opened fire on them. There
were no casualties on the Ameri-
can side.
1t was decided by Col. Hunting
ton this morning to abandon the
position occupied as a camp, as
there were no signs OF reinforce
ments of troops and it was
known that a force of Spaniards
six times more numerous than
the marine battalion, was in the
vicinity. Therefore, the crest Of
the hill which the troops held last
night, was given up to batteries
and rifle pits and the tents were
pitched On the side Of the hill
near the harbor, which is protected
by the warships.

Columbus, o., June 13.-The govern
ment sprung surprise on the defense
in the Harry M. Clarke case during
| the cross-examination of the defendant,
who made what appears to have been
! a fatal error by going on the stand IN
| his own defense.
District Attorney w. E. Bundy con-
| Quoted the cross-examinatiOn, and the
surprise consisted in the presentation
I! of a letter written by the defendant to
| William Alexander, President of the
| Bridgeport Bank, April g. 1897. The
| letter stated that the writer must have
| $500 by April 5 or be ruined man.
| The writer said he had lost that amount
| of the Progress Building Association S
funds in oil speculations, and having
| resigned the position of secretary, he
| must turn over the books to Mr.. Baker,
! his successor, April 5, and the shortage
| would then be disclosed. The writer
of the letter stated that he was almost
crazy on account of the ruin that was
| staring him in the face and he implored
| Mr.. Alexander to loan him sufficient
| sum to save him from disgrace.
When the tell-tale letter was being
read to the jury Clarke completely lost
| his nerve superabundance Of which
| had hitherto stood him in good stead
| during the trial. In faint voice he adj
! mitted the genuiness of the letter, and
| in answer to questions of the district
attorney made the further admission
| that on April he had written check
| on the bank for 1856 and placed it to
| the credit of the Progress Building AS
ISOLATION, changing the cash books so
as to show that the association owed
| the bank $500 instead Of about SIS
! 600, as had formerly appeared.
He admitted that the greater part of
| the SIS 900 Indebtedness was created by
| misrepresentation of funds to himself.
During the cross-examination death
| like stiffness pervaded the court room.
n. w. Scott was the next witness in
behalf Of the defense, but Judge briggs
failed to get him to testify as anticipat-
ed. and only few question were asked
| him.
The whole forenoon was taken up by
| the argument Of motion submitted
by Judge briggs, asking the court to
arrest evidence from the jury and in
struct it to render a verdict of acquit-
tai. The argument was made in the
judges private room behind closed
doors, the jury not being present. Judge
Hanmand overrued the motion
The case may go to the jury Tuesday
afternoon.
The expressman who delivered the
bank book sent by express from Bridge
port in response to telegram from the
court, came near getting himself Jailed
for contempt He refused to leave the
book in the court room until he was
paid a dollar charges, and loading the
book in the wagon, carted it off over
town while making deliveries.
Fortunately the book was not needed
during the time. or the messenger who
wouldn't trust Uncle Sam for dollar
might have Jared rather roughly.

Tampa, Fla, June 13.-General

conveyed from Tampa TO Key
West by the Helena, Annapolis,

were joyful when orders were re-

were crowded together do not
permit the portfolios to be opened,
and with the thermometer close to

the vessels, where at night the
troops were packed in like sar-

hours before the physicians sue

seriousness. On Friday, however,
the ships were ordered once more
out into the stream, word having
been brought up by the converted
gunboat Hornet that no trace of
any hostile vessel had been found.

year the company reduced the rate to 20 cents and thirty-seven cars were shipped. They were worth s1,7O0. In 1897 forty-seven cars were received here wocth $2,300. It will be noticed that the price of lime under these in creasing shipments grew lower year by year, and a local industry was ben cited by keeping California lime out altogether.
 A few days ago attention was called to the reduced rate on flour to Prescott and Jerome Junction. Local millers are already being benefited, since the rate of 32 cents to the former point and B cents to the latter enables them to compete successfully with Kansas mills for the trade of Prescott and the big mining camp of Jerome. The eastern Kansas rate to the same points is $1.45, middle Kansas rate, S140 and western Kansas rate, s13O With in creased local manufacturing facilities Phoenix millers will in time be able to command the trade of pretty nearly all the northern part of the territory
