A PAINFUL SENSATION.
Great Anxiety in Spain Over the
Fighting at Santiago.

LONDON, July 1.-The Madrid cor
respondent of the Standard says:
The official dispatches with reference
TO the fighting at Santiago &c Cuba
have caused a painful sensation. The
Queen Regent has sent an expression
of her sympathy to Sonora Linares,
wife of General Lnares, who is residing
in Madrid.
The greatest anxiety is felt by all
classes. The press of all sections is
angry because no proper measures
have been taken to reinforce General
Linares. The Queen Regent is deeply
concerned, and has requested her min
listers to send her all dispatches, no
matter at what time they arrive.

A c.aDER WAS in ms EYE.
Bu, 1t Came Out AFTER a shaking Up
in n Car

In Car.
In the very center of crowded cable
car stood short but heavy man, with
a cinder IN his eye. says the New York
Tribune. Although the cinder evident-
ly gave him serious annoyance. he was
good-natured about 1t and in spite of
the fact that bis fellow-p passengers
manifested the utmost indifference to
his personal affairs, he bubbled over
with information about that cinder.
His monologue was carried on In spas
modic paragraphs and each paragraph
terminated with the sentence: "Pl
get II out when / get home" Wedged
In next to the man with the cinder
were two women. each with more bum
dies than she could gracefully manage.
Some OF the bundles were long ones,
and with the sudden starts and stop
pages of the car those long bundles
poked about with much freedom among
the hats and bonnets worn by the oc-
cupants OF the seats An aristocratic-
looking woman. while clinging to
strap on the other side Of the man
with the cinder. dropped her eyeglasses
on the floor and franticalIy endenvored
to make an open space in the closely
packed car in order that she might
/ rescue them btfore they were trampled
/ on. The gallAntry Of the man with the
/ cindor In his eye was awakened on the
instant. He. too. had been grasping
/ strap, but he let go of IL and stopped
I TO pick up the glasses. Just then the
/ car, with a suidenness born OF pure
malevoience. stopped short. The heavy
I body OF the STOPPING man was hurled
4 violently against the two women with
/ the bundles. knocking one Into the
laps of the passengers on one side OF
the car and dragging the other down
upon his own PROSTATE form. Bundles

I three or four hats which the general
mix-up sent spinning into the air. The
/ struggling women screamed and
caught eagerly at anything within
reach, whether It was a mans necktie
or woman's ostrich plumes, and in
\ consequence there was quite an excit-
I ing disturbance for a few seconds. The

went Into Mysteries, While a compan-
lon was endeavoring TO calm the injur-
ed woman the owners of the bundles
raised their voices in loud lamentation
over their inability TO ind the products
of their shopping. Meanwhile the car
had started with jerk and given its
occupants another vigorous shaking
! up. Passengers who had been tumbled
/ upon. handled and crumpled. were be-
/ ginning to show signs Of temper. There
was a lack OF geniality in the car for
a moment The short, heavy man had
managed to scramble to his feet and

| phere OF the car was beginning to get
heavy with ugliuess he beamed joy

they would break out again. They caused

to be watched continually to keep him

only medicine which had helpd her was
