The New Foe,

Washington, July 14.-The press re-
ports of the burning of Siboncy by the
medical officers of the United States
army had a depressing effect here upon
the friends cf the soldiers at the front
in Cuba. For long time it was i'm
possible TO learn anything from any
official source as TO the exact state of
affairs at the headquarters of the Fifth
army corps, and this reticence on the
part of the officials had the natural eff
feet to increase the apprehension.
Finally the fact was reluctantly adj
mitted that il was not certain that yell
low jack existed at Siboney, but the
reports received over night from the
medical officers did state that there
were IA suspicious eases of fever. The
fact that these cases We're almost en-
tirely confined to members of the quar-
termaster's department, teamsters and
others encouraged th- officials here TO
believe that the main body of the army
is not in danger from the disease, if it
should turn out to be yellow fever.

during the past ten days, the steamer
st. Paul arrived Sunday night from st.

from the Klondike. There were 176
passengers on her list and the amount
of their earnings, in gold dust, nuggets
and bank drafts, is estimated by the
ships officers at S3,OO0,00O. The largest
amount brought out by n single pros
pector is in the possession of n. 1.

POWDER WORKS EXPLODE.

Disaster-Not the Work
of q SOY.

New York, July 13.-Two explosions
which killed IL men, wounded 20
others and wrecked two buildings.
occurred Mt the plant of the Latin
Rand powder works, Mt Pompton, n.
j., Tuesday. The first explosion was
In the house where the guncotton was
being made, and the second, presum-
ably superinduced by conclusion, was
in the drying house, close by.
After the explosion there was some
talk of a Spanish spy being implicated
in the attempt to destroy the powder
mill, but the theory of the men con-
nected with the works is that grain
of gravel or sand got into some pow
der which was in process of handling
in the mixing-room, and that as ii
went through the machinery the for
eign substance came in contact with
metal surface and threw out spark,
which ignited the explosive.
The Latlin-Rand company has been
engaged in the manufacture of brown
powder, ritroglycerin, guncotton
and smokeless powder under contract
TO the government. The loss to the
company will be great, but it is said
that n reconstruction of the wrecked
will begin at once, and that
the plant will be in full running order
in two weeks.

TELLS OF THE SURRENDER.
Gen. Skaters Dispatch-To Have
Taken City by Assault would
Have Cost 5000 Lives.

| Washington, July 1S.-The Ameri-
can flag Is now waving over Santiago.
The first message conveying the news
of Santiago's formal surrender was
received at the white house shortly be-
fore II o'clock, just as the president
was preparing to go to church.
Late in the afternoon the official dis
patch came from Gen. Shafter giving
in brief military fashion an unusually
clear statement from the general of
the days events. It was entirely sat
isfactory from every point of view,
showing that the American army was
in complete control of city that 1t
would have cost 5000 lives to capture
by storm. Moreover, it was very en-
cournging from n medical view, in that
ii showed, contrary to'what had been
expected, that there was little sick
ness and scarcely any yellow fever in
Santiago, but great deal of suffering
and distress. Following is the dis
patch:

was thought at first that this first
outward show of force on the part of
the German ships might lead to an in
quiry by this government as to the
purposes of Germany. Thus far, how
ever, there is no disposition to make
such inquiry, or to attach serious i'm
port to the incident.
New York, July IA special copy
right cable from Manila, July 10, to
the New York Journal says:
Admiral Dewey early on July dis
patched the Raleigh and Concord to
take Grande island in Subic bay and
capture the garrison.
The cruisers shelled the principal
ports on the island, destroying the
earthworks and other Notifications,
and laying the torpedo station in
ruins.
They then sent out launch with
message demanding surrender.
There was no response, and the
Raleigh finally sent siX-inch shell
through the commodore's house.
The white flag was instantly run
up on the ruins of the earthworks.
A landing party demanded absolute
surrender.
The Spanish colonel, Rio, realizing
his hopeless position, made submis-
sion and gave up his sword.
The 500 men comprising the gar
rison were made prisoners and their
rifles were taken from them.
Forty thousand rounds of ammu-
milton and one Hotchkiss gun were also
captured.
The victory gives the Americans
control of Subic bay.

IN an interview that lie thought peace
might be arranged on the following
terms:
The United States and Spain to agree to
let the Cubans decide by a plebisclte
whether they desire independence or au-
tonomy under the suzerainty of Spain
The two governments TO agree to abide
by the result of the plebiscite.
In the event of the Cubans voting for in
dependence, the United States 10 allow
Spain nine months in which to withdraw
her army, gradually and dign!fiedly, from
Cuba.
Continuing. the minister of war said:
eve ought TO retain Puerto Rico at all
costs in order to be always near Cuba. OF
which the Americans will be able TO despoil
US In course of time. and In order to more
easily communicate with the South Ameri-
can republics. which daily display the
greatest enthusiasm for Spain.
LAS TO the Philippine islands, 1t is certain
We will retain them, even though the
Americans succeed In occupying Manila.
OF which place their occupation will be
most brief. An official dispatch announces
that the rebel chiefs and the Americans
will not always agree. which is TO Spain s
advantage.
THE government has formed scheme
which Will not only assure Spain the pos
will reestablish tranquility"
London, July 16.-All the dispatches
from Madrid to the London morning
papers agree that Capt. Gen. Blanco
and his staff are now willing to let the
decision as to peace or war rest with
the home government. This change of
attitude is supposed to be due to the
lack of provisions and equipment.
Berlin, July IS. = The Tageblatt's
Madrid correspondent says Sagasta
has declared that he is now convinced
that the Americans would be defeated
by the land forces in Cuba and that
the Americans knew this themselves,
but since Spain no longer has fleet
the Americans could starve the island
without subjecting themselves to ex-
posture to the Spanish bullets. Hence
he has resolved to bring about peace
as soon as possible.

TRAIN ROBBED.
Bandits Ovcrpower an Express Mes
senger Near wichita. Kan, and
Escape with the Booty.

Wichita, Kan, July 1S.-The Frisco
passenger train, leaving here at $3.50
o'clock for st. Louis, was held up Sat-
urday night by two masked men at
Andover, station ten miles east of
here. A citizen of Andover, who
learned of the plan to rob the train,
attempted to notify the train crew and
was shot by the robbers. He will prob
ably die. His name could not be
learned. Several hundred dollars were
taken from the express car, but the
exact amount is not known here, and
there is no way of finding out, as all
attempts to raise the Andover office
have failed. Andover is flag station
and has about 200 people.
Two men rode into town at dark and
tied their horses in the street near the
depot. They avoided everybody and
acted in such mysterious way that
they We're suspected and man was
sent down the road to flag the train.
He was shot by the robbers just few
minutes before the train arrived. AS
soon as the engineer slowed down the
men, wearing heavy masks, entered
the express car and demanded the
money. The messenger drew re-
volver, but was gagged and disarmed,
after which the men took the valu-
ables from the, safe. No attempt was
made to rob the passengers. After get
ting what money they could. the rob-
bers rode off across the prairie at
full gallop, firing back toward the town.

Madrid. July i6.--The Official Ga.
Tette published Friday royal decree
temporarily suspenling Throughout,
the spanish peninsula the rights OF
individuals rs guaranteed by the con-
stitution. The decree adds that the
government will render an account
TO parliament Of the use IL may make
Of this measure.
The publication of the decree is gen
orally accepted as being convincing
proof that Spain is now ready To sue
for peace and that negotiations TO that
effect are actually in progress. The
government wishes To have full power
10 suppress any evidences of discomfort
or rebellion which might appear. The
Carlis,s are furious and are sure TO at
tempt to create trouble.
Washington, July l6.--Prcsident Me-
kinley Friday in speaking of the fall
Of Santiago said: Il hope for early
peace now"
The subject of peace was not men,
toned at the meeting of the cabinet,
and IL can be authoritatively stated
that the president has not received an
intimatior from any official or even
semi-ofticial source that Spain de-
sires peace upon any terms that
could be entertained by the United
States. One prominent member of
the cabinet said that Spain was rapidly
losing ground by not seeking to make
terms. and added that "she seemed TO
have no ability TO make war or capacity

Admiral Dewey BaIks Alleged Plane

Washington, July 1.-THE navy de-
partment has received from Admiral
Dewey the following Dispatch:
"Aguinaldo informs me his troops have
taken all OF Subic bay except Isla Grande.
which he was prevented from taking by the
German man-of-war Irene. On July the
Raleigh and Concord went there. they took
the island and abont 1900 men. with arms
and ammunition. No resistance. The
Irene retired from the bay on their arrival.
II shall send the Boston to Cape Engano

"(SigBed DEWEY.
Turning TO the far east it was re-
freshing TO receive good news again
from Dewey. In fact ii is beginning
to be remarked that that officer is
usually able to make felicitous re-
ports. The administration is very
much pleased with the readiness
shown by the admiral in meeting the
grave issue presented to him at Subic
bay and just reported us he did.
Naval officers, too, were not little
gratitied at the speedy retirement of
the German cruiser Irene after the
of the Raleigh and Con-
cord. \ comparison of the ships shows
that the Irene was much the superior
TO either of the two American vessels,
and in tonnage was almost ms large as
the Raleigh and Concord together.
From this il is inferred that the etire-
met of the Irene was from motives of
general policy, rather than from any
TO try conclusions with the
two American ships.
In official quarters here there APP
pears to be no disposition TO look upon
