PROPOSED NEW RESIDENCE
Mrs. Scott Townsend to Have Modern Man
sion Constructed.
Site Purchased of MIR. HiIlyer at the
Corner Of Massachusetts and
Florida Avenues.

A residence rivaling in size that of Mr..
Letter. and surrounded by great deal
more ground than is about his house. IS
proposed to be erected in this city by Mrs.
Scott Townsend. The site of this splendid
residence has been selected. and comprises
nearly an acre of ground at the northeas st
corner of Massachusetts and Florida ave
nues. At present the residence of Mr. Cur
tbs j. Hilyer is located there, and the spa
cfous proportions of the grounds about the
house have long been the admirat ton of
those who are accustomed to the restricted
limits of the average city building lot
1 lie entire place Is PURCHASED by Mrs
townsend from Mr.. H.ilyer, and 1t is prob
atie that the house now there will be re-
moved, and in the center of the grounds
Will be built a fine modern mansion. The
proportions of the ground are immense.
When II 8 considered that il is an urban
lot in handsome resident section of the
cLty- There Is nearly an acre of ground
W4thln the limits, with a frontage of some
':5S feet on Massachusetts avenue, and a
uepth or some III feet to an alley which eX-
tends along nearly the entra length of the
north boundary of the property.
Mrs. Townsend has been, it is well known
on the lookout for some time for u desirable
location for the residence which she pro-
poses to erect here. and it is thought her
selection is an admirable one. The ex-
ACT price paid is not announced. but it is
said 1t Is considerably over $10O.0o0.
FOR several years past Mrs. Townsend
has been making her home in residence

been enlarged and greatly improved for
her use, including an addition to the din

being in this city practically insurmounta-
bic. In number of the houses built in

corrected and provision has been made for

brigade surgeon at Camp Thomas and
told of his visit to the Second division
hospital in July last, when he said
it was overcrowded. In each
tent and under its flies there
were eight or nine men where
there should have been but from four
to six. There was a sutficiency of ply
sicians and Mai. Giffin was sure they
were competent men. He thought the
crowding of the hospital was from
lack of sufficient tentage, fault due
to the surgeon in charge.

THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS.
The Prospects Said to BE That This Gov
ernmcnt VIII Exercise Control over
the Entire Group.

Washington, Oct. l1.-Public men in
Washington believe the negotiations
result in the forfeiture of sovereignty
by Spain over the entire Philippine
group. While the instructions to our
commissioners include the retentio
by this government of the island of
Luzon only, the conditions under
which Spanish sovereignty over the
rest OF the group would be restored are
such as it is now believed Spain will
not accept. Spain cannot reject these
conditions and retain her sovereign ty.
1t is expected, therefore. that negotia-
tions will close with the entire
group of islands in the possession
of the United States.

of the Chicago Virden Coal company,
in regard TO sending troops to Virden,
where the operators have been plan
ming to use imported negroes TO fill the
places of strikers. Manager Lukens
said he proposed to import labor and
would operate his mine, If necessary,
at the muzzles of Winchesters Gov.
Tanner said he would not send troops
to assist the operators inrunning their
mines with imported labor. and If the
operators attempted TO enforce their
ideas in regard to Winchesters he
would send the militia to Vlrden to
disarm all. In regard to the situation
at Pana Gov. Tanner said if the oper-
ators persisted in employing imported
labor he would withdraw the troops

WORKING FOR A REPUBLIC.
Gen. Weyier Said to Have Scheme which

New York, Oct 1.-THE Madrid cor.
respondent of the Tribune telegraphs
his paper, among other things, the fol-
owing: Gen. Weyler, whose recent
arrival here from the Balearic islands
causes considerable uneasiness in cir
cles friendly to the dynasty, is be-
lieved to have at last made his choice
between the Carlists and the repub-
licans and to have cast his lot with
the latter. 1t is learned from sources
that have hitherto proved trustworthy
that Weyler is zeslously working with
a newly-formed committee whose
sphere Of activity is Portugal as we'll
as Spain, and whose aim is to proclaim
after the signature of peace an Iberian
republic, uniting the whole peninsula,

Washington, Oct IL. No informa-
ton, officially, has been received by
this government to the effect that
Cen. Blanco desires four months longer
IN which to- evacuate Cuba Adjt. Gen.
Corbin said to-day:
we shall give Blanco until December to
,oave the island. On that date the United
states expects that he and all the
Standards who intend to leave will have
gone Six weeks or nearly two months
ought 10 be suf1cient time for him to re-
move his army. Spain is surely not SO
bankrupt as not to be able to engage trans
norts enough to carry away oil OF her troops
by that time. 1t is highly necessary that this
government gain full possession OF Cuba at the
earliest possible moment There must be
changes made in the civil government OF the
island and while the cool weather prevails we
must improve the sanitary conditions which
have long been such a menace to health At
present the revenues OF the island are going
into the Golfers Of Spain. No Cuban gets the
benefit OF single dollar OF it The island no
longer belongs TO Spain and the people Of the
island are entitled to the revenues.
