CLARKE SENT HOME.
The News of His Illness Was a shock to
His Friends.

Ills tftenuS.
Washington. Aug. captain Charles
T.. Clarke, man of the battle
ship Oregon, now in Cuban waters off
Santiago, has been invaded home. The
news of Captain Clarke's Illness came
as "a shock TO his Washington friends
in and out of the navy who nave fol-
lowed with intense interest his notable
trip from San Francisco around the
Horn to Florida. and noted with added
interest his conduct of the oregon i'm
the battle with admiral Cervera's
squadron.
Definite information concerning his
illness is not o~btainable at the navy de-
partment. Secretary Long said to-
night that Captain Clarke had been
granted leave of absence on ccoun of
sickness. but that he had no knowledge
of how sick he was or from what dis
ease he was suffering. Ii is believed
at the navy department that Captain
Clarke is suffering from some climatic
affection. induced probably by the ire
mendous strain under which he has
been for months.

London, Aug. 5.-The Madrid corre-

with Senior Sagasta counseled peace.
But Senior Nocedal, leade of the ultra
montanes, urged war a IOutrance ven
If the Yankees, he said, were To cap
ture Spanish ports, as possibly the in
ternal conflagTation would avenge Spain
by PLACING her in a position to gain
more than by making a shameful peace
now Senior Romero Y Robledo, in the
course of an interview. said:
"Senor Sagasta informed me as to the
contents of the American note. In ad-
dition TO the demands already known
the American government asks the oc-
%Cupation and possession OF Manila and
Subig bay. NJ. Cambon obtained from
President Mckinley the substitution
for the word 'possessioni of another
word meaning practically the same
thing"
This revelation has caused a ferment
here. IL was understood at first that
the Americans demanded only tempor-
AIRY occupation, pending arrangements
for the future government Of the Phil
ippines. 1t is believed the powers will
object to the Americans retaining per-
manent possession of Manila and Subig
bay. The latter is a splendid naval
station.

WARRANTS ARE At PAR
For the First Time in the History
of the City.
EMPLOYEES ARE HAPPY
Their GOOD Fortune Due TO the Eager
Competition for the Warrants
by Two Rival Commits
sion Houses.

For the first time in the history of
Butte. city warrants went yesterday at
par. 1t was payday at the city hall and
as a consequence of the advance in the
price of warrants there were many smil-
ing faces about the hall, for it was the
first time every city employe got his
warrant cashed without having 1t
shaved.
The employees of the city w their
good fortune to the competition for city
warrants that has existed the past two
months. 1t will be remembered that
last month Lynch & Bachelor and the
Thompson Investment company were
hot competition for the warrants and the
Thompsons ran the price up to 9914 cents
i'm an effort to secure the issue. Lynch
* Bachelor went them one better n
got the bulk of the issue and yesterday
were on hand to get the warrants If
they had to pay a premium.
The books had hardly been opened
yesterday morning when Broker Bur-
bage appeared and inquired of Lynch
* Bachelors representative what they
expected to pay. He replied they ex-
pected to make the usual , per cent. dis
count and Burbage mad answer that
If Lynch q Bachelor got the warrants
they would have to pay more than 99ha
cents. He Immediately began offering
that price and Lynch q Bachelors man
promptly wrote out and posted notices
about the city hall which read:
Warrants will be cashed to-day at
par"
The firm was soon alone in the field
and all day a procession Of smiling faces
filed in and out of the clerks office, City
employees are very much in hopes the
competition for city warrants will con-
tinue indefinitely. The circumstance
makes one thing sure, Butte's credit is
all right when brokers are hot to get
warrants for the interest alone.
