The scale under which the employees OF
the Wheeling steel works, at Benwood,
are working expires next Monday, and
developments are awaited with interest.
The company's plate mill. which has
been idle for two or three weeks, owing
TO the strike Of the helpers, 1t Is thought
may be started by the management
Monday, hence II enters Into the specula-
ton concerning what may be tried at the
steel works.
It was current rumor in Benwood yes
terday that the bosses at the plate mill
had given out the information that the
plate mill would start on Monday morn
ing. Some OF the men seen by 4 repor-
ter said that the wv was no surprise
to them. but they thought the attempt
would be 4 failure: but there were many
who think the mill will be able to so on,
az but a percentage Of the plate mill
workers are asked to take 4 reduction,
and those say that their wages would be
cut only on certain orders OF goods. AS
jobs at the mill have been offered TO
outsiders, there is good grounds for the
assumption that there will be an effort
to start the mill. a prominent striker
said he had expected some OF the men
to weaken, but they were few who show
ed a disposition to so back. The men
whose wages will be cut number twenty
four.
There is more determination among
the steel workers to resist the reduction,
because the reduction affects more Of
their number. and they say when they
tin!shNthis week. that they expect to be
idle for some time. This is taken to
mean that the company, in case Il tries
20 operate the steel mill without the old
men. will meet with failure. Matters
are progressing smoothly, and it is not
impossible that a compromise may he
arranged, yet 4 strike seems Inevitable
unless something unforeseen turns up.
Since the helpers struck no attempt
has beer made to start the plate mill,
and no orertures have been made by
either side. The belief that the mill is
10 be started Monday gives rise TO the
belief That a combined effort will be
made to start the steel mill, but there
are few mill men In Renwood who ex-
pect 10 see the latter mill so on n. that
date. On account OF the differences In
the reductions offered, the company will
find 1t more difficult to get the steel
workers on, unless as Is wished for, some
a!nicable adjustment Is made. and It Is
very likely that the steel mill will be
idle for some time to come.

PITIABLE PLIGHT

or an Aged South Side Man-Was
Found Near the Riverside Almost
Frozen and Badly Bruised-May Not
Recover.
Thomas Koran, the aged Baltimore &
Ohio Waterman at ThIrty-sixth street,
was found lying in the snow alongside
the Baltimore & Ohio tracks, opposite
the Riverside steel works, in a pitiable
condition, about I o'clock yesterday
morning. He was unconscious and APP
peared to be dead when picked up. His
head bore several cuts and blood was
frozen to his face and clothing. About
noon, he was transferred from the
Emergency hospital, in Benwood TO the
North Wheeling hospital.
He boards at 24l9 Jacob street, and
was seen last Tuesday night about z
O'Clock. He was wandering about, and
1t is presumed he succumbed to the
exposure. where he al found. He has
wandered away In a similar
two or three times before, but level had
such a rough experience. 1t Is not
known exactly how lie received his in
ju-les and the theory advanced that he
was struck by n train hardly seems
plausible. but II he was he escaped
lightly.
One OF his yes was blackcned, and a
cut In his head required seven stitches
to sew It up. He had probably lain in
the snow for hours, for his face was
badly swollen frcm the exposure. With
medical aid he revived, but considering
his advanced age his chances for eco
cry are few.

HUNDREDS NET DEATH

by a Hurricane.
IT SWEPT THE LESSER ANTILLES.

barbados Island Island Loses Two
Hundred Killed and Forty Thousand
Are Homeless-On st. Vincent Island
Three Hundred Are Dead.
London, Sept. 15.-Advlces were re-
ceived here late last night saying that
a terrible hurricane has swept over
Barbados, in the windward group Of
the lesser Antilles. Two hundred per-
sons have been killed and 10000 rem
dered homeless. Barbados, which be-
longs to Great Britain, Is 21 miles long
and has an area of 1856 square miles.
Bridgetown is the capital of the island,
which has its own Legislature and is
the most important member of the
colony Of the Windward Islands. The
population in 1891 was 1892. The
island Is almost enclrcled by coral
reefs, which render the approach to It
extremely dangerous. A majority of
the inhabitants are negroes.
A st. Thomas, d. w. l., dispatch
says: According to the latest reports
from st. Lucia the storm which broke
upon the island Sunday night develop
ed almost precedented violence, being
accompanied by a tidal wave and tre-
mendous rains. Numerous landslides
were caused. and MANY houses. bridges

THE CUBAN REPUBLIC
A Manifesto to the People From the
Provisional Government.
TO GALL ANOTHER ASSEMBLY

To Choose Some Form of Government
''as nm Oflcial Representation of
Those Cubans who Fought Against
Spain''-Havana Independents Busy.
Santiago de Cuba, Sept 15.-The
council of the so-called provisional
government of the republic OF Cuba,
represented by Senor Bartolome Maso,
president; Senior Mendez Capote, vice
president, and Senior Font, Senor Ale-
man and Senor Moreno de la Tore,
secretaries, met at Santa Cruz on Sept.
1 and formulated a manifesto to the
Cuban people, with an order to the
military commanders of the Cuban
army, both of which have been promul-
gated.
The manifesto, which is an elaborate
document, touches on the history Of the
movement for Cuban independence and
the principles upon which the Cuban
people have fought for their liberty. 1t
proceeds, in part as follows:
Though the principal object Of our
revolution has been obtained, that Is,
the destruction of Spanish domination,
the work of this council is not yet
at an end, for the Cuban republlc-the
luedl LOT which we nave lOuB
not yet been constituted. Now that
hostilities have ceased and Spain has
renounced her sovereignty, 1t is the
duty of this council to set before the
Cuban people the feelings and purposes
of the men who made the revolution.
1.-THE entrance upon the field of a
powerful and decisive factor, upon
which we have always relied and to-
Ill TN.al.r no
have always turned, has put an end
to the horrors of war, to the benefit Of
all concerned. This prompt solution
we must acknowledge we could never
have obtained. It is proper to ac-
knowledge the evident truth. That Is
the best title the United States has to
our gratitude.
"These considerations have convinced
us that we should not dissolve and
that tive powers we have received from
an assembly elected by the people
under arms should not vanish. On the
contrary, we feel that we should re-
main as nucleus and guide for those
who have vested such power in us.
we have, therefore, decided to call to-
gether another assembly, which will
determine our future course"
In conclusion the manifesto gives u
number of reasons why the proposed
assembly should be convened and some
government or another chosen, mot
with the character of a government as
yet but as an official representation of
those Cubans who fought against
| Spain and of those who, in the cities
under Spanish control and In foreign
countries have helped and supported
| them"

spanish Evaeuntlng Porto Rico.

Washington, Sept. 15.-Word reached
the navy department yesterday that
all the Spanish war vessels In Porto
Rico had left that country The in
formation came from Admiral Schley,
but further than giving the names Of
the ships contained no details of their
departure nor their point Of destina-
ton are given, although it is thought
likely that the vessels have left for
some nearby port, probably Martinique.
The war vessels included the Isabel II,
a cruiser; the Criollo, the torpedo boat
Terror, a small gunboat, name not
given, and one other. Their departure
is simply in accordance with the plan
of evacuation of the island by the
Spanish forces, as provided for in the
peace protocol.

This is interpreted to mean that there
will be no presidential crisis. 1t is
now taken for granted that General
Zurlinden, minister for war, will resign
on Saturday, all the efforts of his col
leagues to persuade him to accept re-
vision having failed. When General
